Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 1045 - 399: After Dusk

He remembered how the human leader spoke these words with not only a trace of reminiscence in his tone but also a burgeoning sense of aspiration.

But at this moment, he saw a large number of Abnormal Bodies wreaking havoc and slaughtering in the city, the Star City Orbital Station turning into ruins, the aerial tracks completely collapsing, and humans appearing as ants before these creatures.

He saw at the center of the Neon District, within a massive sinkhole in the ground, Bai Ye and Su Rui battling fiercely with the stitched S-Class aboard the Vermilion Bird. Flames roared, the earth trembled, and the battle raged until the Plasma Diffraction Sword of Vermilion Bird broke. The couple resolutely maneuvered their mecha to leap onto the Abnormal Body, using full-pressure diffraction burning to completely incinerate the Abnormal Body into ashes, along with the Vermilion Bird and themselves.

He saw at the breach in the city wall 1 of the west side, the one-armed Black Tortoise holding the High-frequency Blade Chain Sword, kneeling with one knee to block the breach at the city wall. In front of this giant mecha lay countless A-level Special Level Abnormal Body corpses. The two nuclear power engines in the chest of Black Tortoise had long extinguished, and the golden coolant within the metal framework of the chest armor was constantly dripping, mingling in a pool with the blood of countless sacrificed warriors, resembling an indomitable iron Great Wall...

Lin Xian’s bloodshot gaze slowly focused. He saw the towering Dark Evil God had arrived within the ruins before the high-rise, its hollow abyss-like gaze fixed in his direction.

At this moment, endless darkness surged forth, and Lin Xian’s spiritual power flickered like a precarious candle flame, barely worth mentioning before this mountain-like Dark Creature.

Cough, cough.

Lin Xian stared calmly at the corpse chaser that plunged the city into despair, blood foam continuously flowing from the corner of his mouth. After communicating through Gray Mist and Chu Yan, he seemed to perceive that gaze similar to an intense stare.

He couldn’t decipher the meaning within the gaze, resembling how even after nerve connections one couldn’t spy into the thoughts of darkness, yet Lin Xian simply sensed it.

Within the gaze was a strong sense of bewilderment.

In the command screen of Double Star Tower, Ye Lan looked towards the imminent collapse of the building where the corpse chaser and Lin Xian were, and spoke: "In the vast universe, civilization is both the most brilliant flame and the most dangerous shadow. We are both the hunter and the prey."

"Attack is accompanied by probing; they probe humanity’s rifle range and power step-by-step with higher-level organisms, and does this behavior also indicate they fear the unknown power." Lin Xian slowly replied, "Like you told me, being bitten by a bug, or, it is a poison-laden..." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Poison Arrow Frog."

Buzz!

In the smoke of ruins, four scarlet lights slowly lit up, aimed at Lin Xian and the whole area he was in.

Lin Xian looked up, trying to say something, but he was out of strength, his vision constantly blurred, and the crimson lights seemed to become the final dusk.

Viola stepped in front of Lin Xian.

[I will do my utmost to protect you. It’s been a pleasure working with you, Mr. Lin.]

Sizzle!

The Radiant Light flickered, and a faint AED sound echoed behind him. At this moment, Lin Xian suddenly felt a gentle hand-like weak spiritual power lifting his heavy brain lightly.

Lin Xian parted his lips, then looked towards the direction of the corpse chaser, his lips slightly curling.

He gained some strength, so he called out.

"Grace."

This was not speaking to the communicator but more like a call to deep space.

After a brief silence, a familiar voice rang in Lin Xian’s ear.

[I’m here.]

At this moment, on the stationary orbit of Blue Star at a height of 52,660KM, the 12-kilometer diameter near-earth planetary defense platform quietly rotated in the dark deep space.

A brain-machine consciousness transmission device invented by Mochizuki Masashi, wrapped in a Flashing Bullet connected to Grace’s communication interface, broke the signal transmission blocked by the Sky Veil curtain of the same energy frequency, allowing Lin Xian to successfully contact Grace, and making Lin Xian the only one able to control this near-earth planetary defense platform from the ground.

At this time, Grace had already completed the system takeover of the near-earth defense platform, restarted all subsystems, waiting for Lin Xian’s call.

"Since Apocalypse Day, humanity’s space power has been silenced."

On the rooftop of the ruin high-rises in Dawn City, Lin Xian supported himself on the Frozen Chamber, struggling to stand, his gaze defiantly looking towards the corpse chaser’s four scarlet gazes.

"So, you surely haven’t tried... the strongest destructive power of human industrial civilization condensed."

Buzz!

The corpse chaser’s scarlet gaze violently flared, coldly preparing to eliminate Lin Xian.

Just at this moment, Lin Xian’s gaze turned fierce, and with power from deep within his throat, he loudly shouted!

"South Heavenly Gate, Fire!"

In the uninhabited deep space above, the 12-kilometer diameter ring-shaped energy storage array suddenly lit up with dazzling blue arc light, 24 "Candle Dragon" level particle beam constraint arrays unfolded like the wings of judgment, silently turning their cannons in vacuum, redirecting the high-energy particle cannon initially meant to target the cosmic deep space for asteroid destruction towards Blue Star Asia-Pacific Continent. Deep space radar synced the coordinate parameters to the aiming scope, and within the particle accelerator ring, blazing white light erupting like the birth of a Constant Star.

In an instant, the core of South Heavenly Gate’s high-energy particle cannon burst forth an intensely bright light enough to tear the retina apart, a plasma stream over five hundred meters in diameter gathering in space into a spear of Divine Punishment that pierced through heaven and earth. The atmosphere was ionized upon contact, creating a crimson vortex with a diameter of several kilometers; clouds weren’t penetrated but directly vaporized, and storm clouds along the path were shredded like cotton by an invisible giant hand.
