Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 129 - 124 Upgrade Log (Extra update for 2000 monthly tickets, seeking monthly tickets!)

Chapter 129: Chapter 124 Upgrade Log (Extra update for 2000 monthly tickets, seeking monthly tickets!)

In the snowy plains, a large light on top of the Unlimited Train turned on. Using the light, Lin Xian began to prepare the Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive.

Emerging from the tunnel, the locomotive had crashed through countless zombies and human ghosts. The front was somewhat disorganized and battered. Lin Xian cleaned and repaired it briefly before starting to design armor for the whole locomotive.

"Being at the rear, it might encounter numerous battles..."

Since leaving Jiang City, numerous battles had occurred in the 5th carriage, whether it was a chase or a direct confrontation, this area had become a disaster zone. Now, positioning the nuclear-powered locomotive at the rear was a move born out of necessity.

The interior of this locomotive was complex, with a nuclear power DRX generation unit with a thermal power output of 290 megawatts being heavily shielded, along with various other equipment. Unlike the original Huanxing 7F electric locomotive which had a connecting corridor, he could only place such a small nuclear facility at the end, for the safety of everyone on board.

Lin Xian had no specific design in mind, just piling up materials. He used the high-hardening tungsten steel and inner armor steel he had acquired from devouring the heavy TFV600 dual-tube tank, employing a double-layered design.

The design still adopted the tank’s armor configuration. Lin Xian’s approach was purely ad hoc, using whatever was available.

The entire Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive was 45 meters long, originally built by the Federation Ke Hua Heavy Industry as a standard model for intercontinental trains. This time delving into the 9th Underground City, without this piece of equipment, Lin Xian would have felt a great loss. Fortunately, it was secured, providing ample energy supply for the future.

Clang, clang, clang.

Lin Xian and Building worked nearly 5 hours, finally managing to armor the nuclear-powered locomotive along with the 3rd and 4th experimental carriages.

Now the Unlimited Train, including the front and rear power cars, totaled 9 carriages, with an overall length approaching 300 meters, sprawled across the dark snowy plains like a massive black beast.

"The train is getting bigger."

Sha Sha, holding a can, ran from the rear to the front carriage, exclaiming, "It’s almost becoming an aircraft carrier!"

The squad members were currently dining in the 1st carriage’s dining area, with about an hour left before dawn and their departure, everyone was preparing.

"Dragon Mountain Aircraft Carrier is 150,000 tons, Hercules Patrol Ship is 190,000 tons, Baidi No. 3 Skyspace Ship is 330,000 tons, Sky City - Qingluan is 960,000 tons; our train at most weighs 1,500 tons, still far from an aircraft carrier..."

KIKI said cheerfully, "But once we enter the Pacific Ocean, maybe we could already take off."

Sha Sha’s mouth formed an ’O’,

"That jellyfish can also fly, will we collide if we fly?" Building, usually reticent, suddenly chimed in.

Lin Xian shrugged helplessly, "There are monsters below ground and in the sky. The best strategy is to be able to run on the ground and fly in the sky, and if pushed, dive deep into the ocean..."

Thinking of this, Lin Xian couldn’t help wondering what kind of monsters might dwell deep in the ocean...

"Right, Sha Sha."

Lin Xian brought out a metal box, which was filled entirely with VOG-25, 40mm artillery that he had manufactured, totaling fifty.

"Wow!" Sha Sha’s eyes lit up, "So many."

Lin Xian smiled, handing the grenade gun to Sha Sha, "When we encounter monsters later, don’t conserve your grenades, go nuts!"

KIKI curiously glanced at him, "Hey Lin Xian, when will you build that 1130 and let me have a blast?"

"That will take some time." Lin Xian was rather embarrassed.

To build a 1130 set wasn’t easy; firstly, the phased array and fire control radar lacked some rare earth materials, which needed to be converted using the Preparation Center. Additionally, they needed to consider how to integrate it with the train. It wasn’t as simple as just crafting it and placing it on the roof.

Lin Xian himself didn’t have much knowledge in mechanics or weaponry, and without blueprints, he could only design simple door panels, armors, and cold weapons imprecisely.

The Research and Development Center, as it stands, could only specifically upgrade designated equipment blueprints and couldn’t design something from scratch based on his needs. KIKI excelled in systems, but engineering such items wasn’t her forte; for example, the water oxygen circulation system, despite KIKI gathering ample data, has yet to be sorted out. As she said, if there was an AI system, it would be possible to design and maintain the train as a whole.

KIKI added, "And also, Mecha, if you could build it, your Mechanical Superpower would be even more powerful."

Lin Xian actually thought so too; now that there was a Preparation Factory, combined with his abilities in Mechanical Manufacturing and driving, if he could have an external set of Battle Armor, it would greatly enhance the power of his Mechanical Heart.

Chen Sixuan was somewhat silent at this moment, listening to the others discussing various weapon configurations but feeling somewhat uneasy inside. Being the only one without the ability to kill enemies put some pressure on her, so she planned to continue learning about firearms from Sha Sha during her spare time, hoping it might be useful after entering Yu Bei City.

After adjustments, Lin Xian opened the side armor on carriages one and five, allowing direct entry and exit; originally, he had planned to create a large hole in carriage five to install a large, removable cargo elevator.

However, this plan could currently only be added to the upcoming upgrade plans for Infinity.

Lin Xian took out the upgrade log he had made for the train and added another entry...

1. Planting carriage (vegetables, fruits, water-oxygen cycle, enrich life) (Completed, awaiting planting!)

2. Entertainment area, for playing games and watching movies when resting (On hold, no time even to escape, temporarily PASS)

...

At 15:56, the dark sky suddenly cleared, turning the snowy plains into a glaring white.

Lin Xian closed the logbook, running his Mechanical Heart to inspect the entire train; after a whole night’s work, Infinity prepared to continue onward, driving towards the direction of Yu Bei City.

"There’s so much snow..."

In the cockpit, Chen Sixuan looked at the thick snow ahead with a worried expression.

"The snow has stopped, finally some good news." Lin Xian removed the limiters, the engine of Infinity now fully powered roared to life, driving the heavy train forward as the head-mounted Ice-breaking Shield lifted the accumulated snow, advancing slowly.
