"Now, the Hell Black Chrysanthemum is no longer lit, Director Ding has confirmed it, and none of us have any marks on us anymore."

"Alright..."

Lin Xian pondered, the abnormal phenomenon always made him a little uneasy, but at this moment, the Joint Train quietly traveled through the snowstorm as if it was a fact.

Chen Sixuan also expressed some concern: "Actually, we also find it strange; the situation seems to have changed too quickly. If not for the marks being cleared, it would be hard to explain our current situation."

"Crack, crack... hello, Brother Lin."

At this moment, Lin Xian’s communicator rang, and it was Shi Deyuan’s voice: "Brother Lin, are you awake?"

Lin Xian rubbed his head: "Feeling better, what’s the situation now?"

"Ah! It’s good you’re awake, the way you were earlier really scared everyone." Hearing Lin Xian’s voice, Shi Deyuan was delighted and quickly said, "Now, we’re returning to the city with the support troops from Xilan City. Hey, I don’t know what happened, since entering the night not a single Abnormal Body has appeared. I guess either the support troops’ firepower was too strong and intimidated those ghostly things, or Brother Lin’s earlier move scared those Snow Demons so much they didn’t dare come out in the snow!"

"Hmm, that should be it."

"Since you’re okay, that’s great. Once we get into the city and tidy up the train, I’ll treat you to a drink!"

Lin Xian responded, then fell into silence; when something happens, there must be a reason, he wouldn’t believe that the Snow Demon Tide could suddenly be intimidated by human troops and change their behavior.

Being scared of his Gravitational Lens was even more unlikely.

It seems it’s due to the marks being cleared. Although hard to believe, it’s counted as a good thing for everyone; at least they can catch a breath and retrieve their lives.

Over at Dragon Mountain No.1, the aftermath of the battle was being cleaned up until late at night. At this point, many combat personnel in various carriages have rotated for rest, and those responsible for engineering maintenance and logistics were working overtime to renovate the train’s carriages and outer armor.

In the snowstorm, many repair personnel dressed in heavy work clothes were hanging outside the carriages performing welding work, while inside and outside Dragon Mountain No.1, there were numerous busy human figures.

"The damage on the right-side armor exceeds 35%, and repairing it will be a major project. The main issue is ammunition; we only have less than 20% left of the ammunition exchanged with the Phoenix Society and Silent City previously."

In the conference room of Dragon Mountain No.1, Ning Jing said with a heavy expression while holding a mobile terminal.

Shi Deyuan waved his hand: "That’s all irrelevant. When we reach Xilan City, we’ll have plenty of time to replenish and re-equip. Now that the Nightwalker Organization is here, we’re choosing to cooperate with the Phoenix Society, with their support, Dragon Mountain No.1 can be considered a regular army."

After speaking, he looked at Lu Yong: "Tell us about the casualties."

Lu Yong, beside him, had a heavy expression. Holding a list of casualties, he sighed: "27 dead, 133 injured, 19 are still being corroded by the darkness and are in isolation. We’ve used the method provided by the Nightwalker Organization, and there should be improvement."

Snap!

Shi Deyuan slammed the table, his expression complicated, angrily sighing: "Sigh... damn it, what a disaster."

"Fortunately, the Infinity provided a full-effect Medical Cabin, and a lot of our severely injured personnel were saved. The situation of the other teams is even more severe..." Ning Jing said.

"How about Ah Bai, how’s he doing?" Shi Deyuan asked.

Ning Jing shook her head: "Still unconscious, probably due to excessive Superpower use, been in a coma until now."

"But boss, isn’t it too strange now, we haven’t encountered any trouble all night till now." Fat Cat said with some worry, "I feel uneasy."

"What’s there to be uneasy about?"

Lu Yong gestured outside: "The entire Seventh Investigation Corps has been deployed to protect us, when have we ever had this kind of treatment."

Hearing this, Ning Jing looked at Shi Deyuan: "Lao Shi, don’t blame yourself, if it weren’t for your assistance with the Emperor Plan group, Xilan City wouldn’t have sent such a large troop for support. If we had encountered this terrifying demon tide by ourselves, we wouldn’t have lasted until Xilan City."

The reason Dragon Mountain No.1 was stranded on the Snowfield was because it encountered an attack from the Snow Demon Tide. At this time, seeing Shi Deyuan’s heavy expression, Ning Jing could only comfort him.

Shi Deyuan waved his hand: "Let’s treat the wounded first. It’s not our first time fighting a big battle, we learn from every failure, the armor needs an upgrade, Dragon Mountain Fortress can’t be as fragile as paper."

Boom boom boom!

In the snowy night, the heavy armored head of Dragon Mountain No.1 broke through the thick snow and surged forward.

Over at the Emperor Group, the convoy followed under the escort of the support troops, smoothly advancing.

Inside the vehicle, Yu Yuheng had just finished communicating with Captain He of the Investigation Corps via communicator, and immediately began making emergency deployments with the team.

"Four copies of the experimental data have been made. Once we reach Xilan, we’ll hand them to the Nightwalker Postmen to relay them out of the Extreme Cold Vortex’s shielding range overnight from multiple directions, but the Stela Core is a bit troublesome..." He looked inside the vehicle at a large silver metal box, inside of which is the [Stela Core] of No.1 Machine - Pangu, essentially the mecha’s black box, storing vast amounts of mecha motion and combat data, and most crucially the data captured by various experimental instruments during direct confrontations with S-Class Abnormal Bodies.

These data will not only help improve and upgrade the Emperor Plan’s supermassive human weapon project, but more importantly, they will aid humanity in gradually unveiling the mysterious veil of the S-Class Abnormal Bodies, and through research, uncover more secrets related to the darkness and Star Abyss. Consequently, the value of the [Stela Core] in some respects surpasses that of No.1 Machine itself.
