Chapter 599: Chapter 292 Tutorial_3

The uncle reminded from aside, "The Blood Mist and darkness move very quickly in the newbie level."

Maya held a backpack in one hand, and shoveled coal into it with the other, all the while keeping an eye on the Blood Mist and darkness: "One minute, Lin Wu, we have the last minute."

Lin Wu responded, "Someone help."

It was rare for Lin Wu to ask for help, and Maya immediately said, "Shuihua, get ready to drive, the rest of you, come with me."

Lin Wu was deep inside the little train station, food to his left and weapons to his right. However, whether it was food or weapons, both were locked behind iron doors. Without lock-picking tools at hand, Lin Wu resorted to kicking the door, but the destruction progressed very slowly.

Hong Yi and the others arrived and, without saying a word, joined in kicking. With the added force of several people, they quickly broke into the weapons store. Lin Wu grabbed a chair from the ground, smashed the display cabinet, and stuffed the revolvers hanging in the cabinet into his backpack. The food storage area on the other side was also kicked open, and they all swept items like milk and bread into their backpacks.

A whistle sounded, a warning from Shuihua. At that moment, Lin Wu was smashing a second cabinet containing a repeater gun, but the cabinet was made of particularly sturdy material and was proving difficult to break open. Maya yelled, "Retreat, let’s go!"

Seeing that everyone was still grabbing stuff, Maya grabbed one by the arm and dragged them back: "Go, go, go!"

Pushing Hong Yi and the others to leave, Maya threw out one last instruction: "Keep up."

Lin Wu grunted in acknowledgment, grabbed the chair, and continued to smash as Maya and the other two ran for their lives. After they dashed out of the waiting hall, Maya saw the Blood Mist was less than 80 meters from the train and shouted, "Shuihua, start the train!"

Shuihua hesitated, but Maya repeated firmly, "Start the train."

Immediately, Shuihua started the train, and the long whistle signaling departure blared, with wheels slowly beginning to turn. Maya and the others sprinted with all their might and managed to board the train successfully. Hong Yi looked back worriedly towards the waiting hall and saw Lin Wu and Little Fire bolting out, their pace astonishingly fast, nearly like they had a cheat code. Hong Yi estimated that Lin Wu was only about 10 seconds behind them.

Maya stood at the rear door of the back carriage, lending a hand to help Lin Wu onto the train. She then observed the Blood Mist once more, gaining a practical understanding of the train’s speed. Considering their speed, the Blood Mist’s speed, and the train’s speed, she realized they could have scavenged for another 15 seconds. Unfortunately, they could have grabbed some more supplies.

Maya walked through the carriages to the front: "Shuihua, take line number 1."

Shuihua nodded in understanding: "The Blood Mist is dispersing."

Maya checked the train’s speed, confirming it was moving at 20 kilometers per hour. The Blood Mist would stagnate, and at speeds over 20 kilometers per hour, it would disperse.

The control panel at the helm showed that the train had a total of 300 kilograms of coal. Based on the ideal energy-saving speed of 50 kilometers per hour, they could travel for 6 hours, which is 300 kilometers.

At that moment, an alarm on the control panel lit up, accompanied by a warning tone. The system notified that there were three intersections ahead and instructed to choose one of the tracks. Shuihua entered number 1 and confirmed the choice. The panel displayed: Next stop, Town Number 1. Warning: None. Distance: 50 kilometers. Maya patted Shuihua on the shoulder and headed to the sleeping carriage.

The sleeping carriage was in disarray. Hong Yi and Qinglang were organizing all the supplies; they neatly folded the bedding, allocated sleeping materials for each bed, and sorted food and daily necessities. The carriage was small, and it quickly filled up. They didn’t trust leaving items in the passenger carriages—God knows if the passengers would steal them.

Lin Wu didn’t participate in the organization; he knew that tidying up wasn’t his strong suit. He was sitting in the passenger car inspecting weapons when he saw Maya come over, and he gestured for her to take a seat.

Lin Wu reported, "One revolver, one repeater gun. Twelve bullets for the handgun, ten for the repeater. But I don’t really like them."

The reason he didn’t like these two guns was due to their reloading methods. The revolver didn’t have a speed-loader, requiring bullets to be loaded one at a time when the cylinder was pushed out. The repeater was even more troublesome, with the breech needing to be pulled open after each shot to insert a bullet, followed by pushing the bolt to chamber the round.

Maya said, "It seems like these are weapons from before the First World War."

Lin Wu asked, "Did that era have any major weapons?"

"Yes," Maya replied. "The Mark Core Water-cooled Heavy Machine Gun, which could fire over 400 bullets a minute with an effective range of two kilometers."

Lin Wu remarked, "At the height of Shadow’s power, their ammo reserves would only be enough for it to fire for a few minutes." Saying this, he handed the handgun and its bullets to Maya.

Maya said, "Give me the repeater. Your job requires the handgun more."
