Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train
Chapter 95 - 90 Radio Station (5th update requests monthly ticket)

Chapter 95: Chapter 90 Radio Station (5th update requests monthly ticket)

Lin Xian frowned deeply.

"So this radio might really have nothing to do with superpowers, nor is it some kind of abnormal body or monster."

"Who knows," KIKI shrugged her shoulders. "Even if we knew, these things are unpredictable and can’t be detected in advance. Other than using them to study mysterious phenomena, they seem pretty useless."

"That’s not necessarily true."

Lin Xian looked at the radio in his hand and said meaningfully, "Since it can be contained, it means that no matter how strange the power of this thing is, it can be utilized. It’s just that..."

Although he didn’t know how the power of this taboo item could be used, since he had acquired it at the risk of his life, he naturally intended to keep it. Who knows, it might be of great use in the future.

Moreover, it was this mysterious radio that allowed Lin Xian to see the monster that had fallen KIKI and enabled KIKI to evolve her superpower, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.

"Brother Lin."

Sha Sha looked at the radio in Lin Xian’s hands, her little face full of vigilance. "Can we still use this radio?"

"That’s easy."

Lin Xian’s eyes twinkled, and with a wave of his hand, a mystic light flashed, and soon, a brand-new radio was crafted by him. With so many upgraded materials absorbed, making a radio was trivial for him. As for the strange 1542 Mysterious Radio, he thought about it for a moment. He planned to try to absorb it with Mechanical Devouring later at night when it was quiet and nobody was around, to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Even the most mysterious of objects was just a radio, and the strange powers it contained had not affected his Mechanical Heart at all. Doesn’t that mean...

My code is above yours?!

With this plan formed, Lin Xian put away the old radio. After creating the new radio, he placed the Mysterious Blood Essence obtained from the three-faced spider creature back into its previous structure.

"It’s ready," Lin Xian said as he placed the radio on the table and began tuning it.

Everyone immediately tensed.

"Static..."

"Static..."

"Federation Radio Yu Bei Area announcement, strong Spirit Swinging Value fluctuations detected in the northern foot of Daluo Mountain, confirmed to be a B-level super-large Abnormal Body [Atmospheric Jellyfish]. The Abnormal Body is currently heading towards Yu Bei City. The Federation Phoenix Association has dispatched Iron Guard Brigade 52 to intercept in the area. Survivors caravans heading towards Yu Bei and Feng City via the G1523, X556 route, please detour. This message is provided by Federation Phoenix Association rescue organization..."

"Federation Radio Yu Bei Area announcement, due to the collapse of Dazhu Mountain Tunnel, the Federation Phoenix Association Tianhai Province division has urgently arranged for rescue teams to repair Yu Bei Airport No. 1 ascent pathway. Survivors fleeing from the direction of Star Abyss Lu City, Dingzhou, Jiang City, Feng City, Luocheng, and other places can go through the ring star high-altitude corridor over Dazhu Mountain Plateau. Alternative routes include: North 756 Plateau Highway is clear, southeast expressway GS66..."

"Static... Static... City warning announcement, Yu Bei City has experienced a citywide zombie tide situation, and due to extreme night conditions, Airport No. 1 will close after three days..."

"Static... Federation Phoenix Association global announcement, due to the Dark Tide causing a global temperature drop, some areas have experienced extreme natural disasters like snowstorms. Important reminder, after testing, snow water and black rain are affected by the extreme night plague, containing unknown bacteria and energy infections, causing a large number of wild animals to mutate, filtering and high-temperature distillation can reduce the infection rate to some extent..."

"Static... Federation Phoenix Association global announcement, several new classes of non-dark Abnormal Bodies have been discovered in some snowstorm areas, posing a great threat, please be vigilant during daylight..."

From the Mysterious Radio, countless messages were continuously transmitted, leaving everyone with complex expressions, uncertain whether to be relieved or worried.

To hear official announcements in a post-apocalyptic world was somewhat comforting, and the information was very important.

However, these messages undoubtedly cast a shadow over everyone’s hearts.

"Sigh... It’s really not easy to stay alive."

KIKI was the first to complain as she looked up at the ceiling. "Lin Xian, turn this train into a spaceship, let’s go live on another planet."

Her words immediately lightened the gloomy atmosphere, and Lin Xian took a deep breath and said...

"Let’s think on the bright side, we won’t have to risk rushing upwards since the climbing passage has been repaired, and with the Iron Guard Brigade, we are not left without support. After passing the high-altitude corridor with electromagnetic propulsion, we’ll quickly reach Jiazhou City, which is 4500 kilometers away. It will take at least a dozen days for No. 3 Star Abyss to spread over here, so we’ll be able to enjoy the sunshine for a while..."

"You’re right." Chen Sixuan nodded and frowned, "But we need to conserve our purified water. The blizzard, along with the water pollution, could spell disaster for plants and animals all over the world."

"Yeah, does that mean we’ll never get to taste delicious fruits and vegetables again?" Sha Sha grumbled.

"We definitely will." Lin Xian said seriously, "If all else fails, we can grow them on the vehicle. Where can’t we Chinese grow vegetables?"

An onlooker in the building watched the group with a peculiar gaze, wondering how the conversation had suddenly turned to growing vegetables amidst life-and-death matters.

To avoid the desperation of a long night filled with dreams, Lin Xian started the train over the repaired section of the track after dinner. Then he took the Mysterious Blood Essence from the radio and placed it on the Soul Swinging Value Detector to try it out.

Click, he pressed the button on the detector, and saw a pale red energy radiating from the Mysterious Blood Essence and then quickly reconverging. Soon the needle on the detector started to move slowly.

"-21"

Inside the cockpit, Chen Sixuan and KIKI watched Lin Xian use the detector, their expressions curious.

"Is this number considered high or low?"

"Low." Lin Xian turned to KIKI, "Didn’t you say that a regular zombie is around -1? Since this number’s negative value doesn’t exceed -100, it should mean there aren’t any Abnormal Bodies nearby for the time being."

KIKI nodded, "That’s the idea. Just don’t know how far this thing can detect."

"There should be a few hundred meters, the bonfire mutual aid society that night was already not a small area," Lin Xian said.

"Alright..." KIKI said, yawning, "Since that’s the case, I guess we can be a little relieved. I’m going to rest for a bit. Sister Chen, remember to wake me up later, I still haven’t finished working on the water-oxygen circulation system."

"Okay, off you go."

Hearing Lin Xian, Chen Sixuan also breathed a sigh of relief. After KIKI left, she looked at the detector in Lin Xian’s hand, and suddenly frowned, "Lin Xian, look..."

At that moment, the Mysterious Blood Essence on the detector had dimmed a lot, as if some Blood Energy inside had disappeared.

Lin Xian’s expression changed slightly, "As expected, it’s a consumable. This thing probably can’t be used many times."

"My goodness, such a precious thing can only be used a few times..." Teacher Chen said regretfully.

"But if it can provide us with extra protection against risks, it’s still valuable."

Taking turns to keep watch is not a long-term solution. If Abnormal Bodies are invisible, it’s hard to sleep soundly even with a night watch, so this kind of detector is quite important to Lin Xian.

Click~

The lights in the carriage went out, the blizzard outside the window intensified, and the heavy train parked in the snow field finally got some rest.

The members of the small team haven’t had good sleep for days, and the steel fortress brought them quite a sense of security. Both Sha Sha and KIKI fell asleep quickly.

In the cockpit, as Chen Sixuan watched the lights in the corridor go out, her body relaxed and she fell into Lin Xian’s arms.

The high tension of the past few days had nearly exhausted all her strength. Now that Lin Xian had successfully returned, this woman finally found that support amidst the blizzard.

"Lin Xian..." Chen Sixuan’s eyes teared up, shoulders trembling, she sobbed softly, "Thank you for coming back."

Lin Xian’s heart softened; without Chen Sixuan, he might not have been able to return from that Mysterious Radio frequency. Feeling touched, he couldn’t help but hug her tightly.

"Lucky to have you."
