2.Doomsday Helpline

The next day, when the sky lit up, it was already 13:00 in the afternoon.

  The black curtain faded, there was no sunrise process, and the sky was already sunny and slightly slanting.

  The time of dawn was one hour later than yesterday. According to the daylight saving time in the area where Jiang City is located, if the sun sets around 18:45, then it will only take about 5 days for there to be no dawn here.

  In the apartment, Lin Xian picked up the short knife and put it in his backpack, jumped from the balcony into the next room, and went down along the established route. He entered a subway tunnel from the entrance of the underground civil defense facility of the apartment.

  This is the maintenance section of the original University Town Station. After the doomsday outbreak, it has been completely paralyzed.

  The zombies in the platform have been cleared by Lin Xian, and this has become Lin Xian's train preparation area.

  Lin Xian walked into the depths of the tunnel. On the mottled railway that had been in disrepair for a long time, there was a giant whale 03E heavy gas turbine locomotive parked at this time.

  This 200-ton steel giant is the secret weapon that Lin Xian is preparing to use to escape the polar night!

  Click~

  Turning on the flashlight, a white light lit up in the dark and empty tunnel. Lin Xian looked at the huge monster in front of him, and his anxiety kept rising.

  This masterpiece jointly created by Alstom Transport Co., Ltd. and Longguo CNR Group 30 years ago is a ten-cylinder gas turbine high-power traction locomotive for trunk freight, which is carefully developed based on Alstom's "Prima" locomotive technology platform.

  The locomotive is more than 36 meters long and 3.2 meters wide. There is amazing energy hidden under its majestic body. Its traction power is as high as 18,500 horsepower, which is equivalent to the sum of dozens of super sports cars, enough to drag tens of thousands of tons of heavy-loaded cargo!

  This is almost the perfect adaptation platform for Lin Xian's mechanical ability, and it is this discovery that made him come up with the unlimited special train plan!

  "Check the drive shaft, brake shoe brake, power turbine..."

  Lin Xian's mechanical heart has three basic skills, namely mechanical scanning, mechanical repair, and mechanical operation.

  In simple terms, as long as he understands the principle of the machinery he touches, he can directly perform basic control and repair it. He can also generate a holographic blueprint of the device by scanning. The three passive skills cannot be upgraded.

  The giant whale 03E needs to be driven by fuel and auxiliary by electricity. Fuel is now the most scarce material in the end of the world, but Lin Xian's "Mechanical Heart" ability can directly drive it with his own ability without energy, which is very amazing.

  However, because the output power is limited by personal physical strength, the driving distance is still limited to Lin Xian's current physical limit, but with his human battery, plus the devouring machinery on the road, collecting resources, if he can collect power generation equipment or even small nuclear power equipment in the future, then this energy problem will be completely worry-free.

  In addition to driving the locomotive, Lin Xian has arranged three traction carriages as living carriages to store materials and as living areas, all of which are transformed from the original passenger carriages.

  Lin Xian came to the last carriage, put his hand on the body, and activated the mechanical heart. A special hydraulic lift was lowered. In the fourth carriage, there was a motorcycle parked. This motorcycle was used to collect supplies after parking.

  He climbed onto the car and lifted down a welding machine. Next to the track, there was a pile of steel, mainly rolled steel plates and high-hardened tungsten steel, as well as high-manganese steel. These materials were originally used for armored vehicles and tanks. Lin Xian found them in the warehouse of the special steel factory in Jiang City. They are ideal materials for building his steel fortress.

  Buzz~

  Lin Xian's eyes flickered, and several armor blueprints drawn by himself appeared in front of him. In addition, there were some firearms blueprints, such as a Glock 23 0.40in pistol blueprint, which he had taken from a group of thugs before. After his skill of [Mechanical Scanning], it was turned into a blueprint and included.

  But the problem is

  "120 grams of high-alloy chromium-molybdenum steel, 300 grams of basic steel, 195 grams of plastic..."

  Lin Xian had a headache when he saw it.

  Compared with the standard equipment after scanning, the most convenient way for Lin Xian at this time is to use his mechanical manufacturing skills and existing materials for DIY assembly.

  Crack~crack~clang~!

  A glimmer of light lit up in Lin Xian's eyes, and the steel in front of him suddenly floated out of thin air, and then under a strong extrusion force, it was quickly rolled and composited into one. In just ten minutes, a 1.5*0.9 composite armor plate appeared in front of him.

  Manufacturing and assembly require extreme concentration, and he is alone, so Lin Xian can only prepare the train before dawn.

  After a few hours, several sets of "external windows" with grilles and double-layer composite armor plates were finally assembled. Then Lin Xian pushed out a small mobile operating crane from the rear compartment, moved these heavy armors one by one to the edge of the compartment, and then used a welding machine to start welding.

  The driver's passage of the heavy gas turbine locomotive of the Giant Whale 03E is connected to all the compartments behind, and they are all equipped with isolation gates.

  Lin Xian named the whole train "Infinity". Carriage 1 was converted into a simple living area by him. Most of the materials he collected were stored on it. Carriage 2 was temporarily vacant. He planned to use it to grow vegetables and cultivate some green plants.

  The ideal state is actually a plant cultivation area that can do water and oxygen circulation, but Lin Xian knows nothing about this, so he can only leave it vacant temporarily. The last car 3 is used for various tools, motorcycles, cranes, welding machines, and for storing materials in the future.

  Just as he was busy building his own mobile fortress, his phone suddenly vibrated.

  Lin Xian was shocked, because most of the satellites had been sent, and the satellite call function rarely worked anymore. He kept the phone powered mainly for storing data, maps and later emergencies, but he didn't expect that there would be a call.

  When the phone was picked up, a somewhat nervous female voice came from the other side.

  "Lin Xian, are you still in Jiangcheng? I... I want to join your rail train plan."

  The person on the other end of the phone was named Chen Sixuan, Lin Xian's university teacher. In the few days after the doomsday, she was the only person in Lin Xian's address book who could be contacted.

  Chen Sixuan was 27 years old, looked like a flower, and had no boyfriend. Before the doomsday, she was a rare animal in Jiangcheng, an atmosphere of early marriage and early childbearing.

  In memory, this university foreign language teacher was tall and was born in an educated family. She was a typical white, rich and beautiful woman in the city, and she was a star-studded figure in the college.

  At the beginning, Lin Xian mentioned his train plan to her, but was rejected by Chen Sixuan because Lin Xian did not reveal his supernatural powers to her, which made her feel that the plan sounded unbelievable, and at that time Chen Sixuan still insisted on the naive idea that a rescue team would come to rescue her.

  However, when Jiang City encountered the first polar night, countless people died in despair. The weirdness in the dark night constantly devoured the last sanity of the survivors. Lin Xian also witnessed a lot of tragic human relations after the collapse of social order. In this environment, if a woman is not a superpower, her value in those survival teams is not even as good as a barrel of gasoline!

  He originally thought that Chen Sixuan had left with a team or died. At this time, he suddenly received her call, and he was a little surprised. If she didn't escape, how did she survive for so long?

  At this time, in an apartment, the door was locked and the curtains were completely drawn. Chen Sixuan was in a home outfit with messy hair. She curled up in the corner of the sofa with a nervous expression, looking at the last bit of power on her phone. Her originally warm and plump lips were pale at this time, and she couldn't help trembling.

  For two months, she experienced the darkest time in her life, with food shortages and long nights. She

  was awakened by the terrifying sound in the dark every night, and the whole person was in a trance and lost weight.

  At first, she was still waiting for the official rescue team to appear, and many former lickers even delivered supplies to her door. But when she knew that the entire world order had collapsed and the polar night was coming, Chen Sixuan realized that she was in a desperate situation.

  So she began to ask for help.

  But after the polar night, most of the people in Jiang City seemed to disappear from the world, and the remaining people had begun to migrate and flee one after another, and those teams that were willing to accept her asked her to send a nude photo first to see the quality.

  At this time, she finally realized that she was no longer the popular teacher in the college, nor was she Chen Sixuan, who was chased by the young men in Jiang City, but a burden. In this end of the world, even if she had some beauty, she had to take the initiative to deliver it to her door in order to be chosen by others.

  Just when Chen Sixuan was about to be desperate, she suddenly thought of Lin Xian.

  All the power banks were out of power, and the mobile phone only had the last bit of power left.

  At this moment, no matter what crazy plan it was, or even as long as the phone could be connected, there was hope for her.

  "Teacher Chen, are you okay?"

  Lin Xian on the other end of the phone sounded calm and steady, which immediately made Chen Sixuan feel relieved.   

  "Student Lin, I... I'm still alive. Are you still in Jiang City?"

  Chen Sixuan bit her finger tightly.

  After a long silence, Lin Xian's voice finally came from the other end of the phone again.

  "Yes."

  Chen Sixuan trembled all over, and her tense mood let out a long sigh. There was hope in her eyes, and she quickly said to the phone,

  "Where are you, can you come pick me up..."

  As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately regretted it.

  This sentence sounded ridiculous. She remembered that she had contacted a team preparing to escape to the east a few days ago, and she subconsciously said this when she called. As a result, the other party scolded her in an almost mocking tone, and the meaning was probably: At this time, you still treat yourself as a princess?

  So she quickly changed her words, "No, no, no... I mean, where are you, can I go to your place?"

  In order to survive, she could only risk it. Otherwise, when her phone was turned off, she would only have two choices, continue to stay in the apartment and wait for death, or go out aimlessly and be torn into a pile of rotten meat by zombies.

  "Teacher Chen." Lin Xian said on the other end of the phone, "Do you have supplies, or have you awakened your superpowers?"

  Hearing this, Chen Sixuan's heart suddenly sank.

  She looked at the empty apartment, her lips trembling, and said in an almost crying tone, "No... no."

  "If, if you want me..."

  Chen Sixuan would never have thought that one day she would say such a begging word to one of her students.

  But before she finished her words, she was interrupted by the other end of the phone, "Sorry, Teacher Chen, my supplies are also limited. If you want to join my plan, you must have corresponding value. Sexual needs are not worth mentioning to me."

  Since no one believes in his train plan, he will build it himself to escape the polar night. He did not do this for charity.

  Lin Xian's voice was neither flat nor indifferent. While giving people a great sense of security, it also brought Chen Sixuan endless despair.

  "Okay then..."

  "Good luck, Teacher Chen." Lin Xian looked indifferent, sighed in his heart, and prepared to hang up the phone.

  On the other side, Chen Sixuan was cold all over. Just when Lin Xian was about to hang up the phone, she suddenly grabbed the phone like crazy and shouted,

  "Wait!"

  She widened her eyes, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and shouted,

  "The Star Orbit was built in 2039. Starting from Longguo, it covers a total of 126 countries and 34 regions in the world, spanning nine continents and four oceans, including the thirteen Star Abyss annihilation zones that have appeared in the world. The total length of the orbit exceeds 320,000 kilometers. My father used to be a first-class maintenance engineer of the Star Orbit. I know the locations of all 1,266 stopovers and 625 spare track sections for maintenance on the Star Orbit..." "

  In addition, I am familiar with many languages. I can act as your translator. I eat very little and can cook a little. As long as... as long as you take me away, I can agree to all your requests!"

  She almost shouted out the last part with all her strength!

  There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

  Chen Sixuan's expression was tense and her body was trembling. The fingernails on her thighs had been scratched with blood because of excessive force.

  "Location, I'll pick you up."

  After just six words, Chen Sixuan felt dizzy. When she came to her senses, she hurriedly said:

  "I... I'm at 901, Building 3, Yushui Garden, Jiangzhou Road!"

  Beep~

  Before she could repeat the address for the second time, the phone had already gone black and turned off.

  She pressed it again tentatively, but there was no response. She was not sure whether Lin Xian really heard her address, and she bit her lower lip anxiously.

  "Ah!"

  She screamed like crazy and threw the phone against the wall, breaking it into pieces.

  "He heard it, he must have heard it..."

  At this moment, Chen Sixuan had to constantly comfort herself. In order to alleviate her negative emotions, she immediately got up and began to look through all the books related to the orbit of the star in her home.

  On the other side, Lin Xian looked at the hung up phone and couldn't help sighing.

  Teacher Chen, whom he once admired and respected, is now begging him in an almost begging tone, and even willing to provide him with sexual services. This ghost-like end of the world really turns people into evil ghosts.

  Chen Sixuan's words really touched him. The circumstellar orbit surrounds the entire Blue Planet, and there are all kinds of unknowns along the way. If someone is relatively familiar with the route, it is better than a dead map that has lost its positioning and navigation function. What's more, the map will not mark the maintenance section or special connection lines.

  Of course, there is another point. Chen Sixuan can be regarded as an acquaintance of Lin Xian. People will always unconsciously develop a sense of group in the end times, and familiar people are the easiest to trust.

  After putting away the phone, Lin Xian looked at the time, and then immediately devoted himself to the welding work.

  Today's time is not enough, and the progress of train preparation cannot be delayed.

  Didi, didi~

  18:00, 45 minutes before dark.

  Lin Xian was sweating profusely, looking at the armored windows on both sides of the third carriage that were as thick as a tank, and his heart was full of a sense of accomplishment.

  "Then there are generators, heating equipment, water purification equipment, refrigerators, and an intelligent monitoring system."

  "And armed protection, automatic firepower, radar systems, etc...."

  "By the way, the living area needs a big bed and a bathtub. It would be best to plan an entertainment area and a game area. There must be tens of thousands of movies, TV shows, and games?"

  Lin Xian's eyes became brighter and brighter. At this moment, he felt more and more.

  In this doomsday, life is becoming more and more hopeful!
