Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 199 - 194: Purge (Double Monthly Tickets! Thanks to the Good Book Uncle Alliance Leader)

Chapter 199: Chapter 194: Purge (Double Monthly Tickets! Thanks to the Good Book Uncle Alliance Leader)

"You’re right."

Lin Xian agreed deeply at this moment. After escaping the chemical plant, it was already dark, and indeed the monster hadn’t followed. Additionally, when KIKI tried to pull out the lantern flower, she found it deeply rooted under the chemical storage tank, and although she didn’t know how large its main body was, listening to Ding Junyi made it sound fitting of a coral species attribute.

"So, what should we do next? According to what you said, those people definitely have their eyes on us when they see us return."

KIKI said, "There are some people causing trouble; they definitely won’t easily let us deal with that chemical plant monster."

"And we still don’t know how many groups of them there are."

"All groups are the same," Lin Xian spoke calmly. "As long as they live in this town, they’re all on the same boat. With the premise of shared interests, our actions are against them."

"So what should we do?" KIKI clasped her arms, "This town isn’t big, but with the enemy hidden and us in the open, along with that big monster and the parasite impostors, if we also have to guard against betrayers, it might be hard for us to move."

Lin Xian’s expression turned cold, "Then let’s find them first and eliminate them!"

Time ticked by. At 8 PM on the dark platform, it felt like the calm before a storm, with no sign of impostors, and everything quieted down.

The tense nerves of everyone on the train relaxed significantly. Seeing this, Lin Xian instructed KIKI to launch the drone for reconnaissance, circling around and confirming that no one was around the freight platform.

In the distant small town, sporadic candlelight still flickered, appearing tranquil yet eerie.

"It seems our decision to return was right, at least we’re temporarily safe." In Car No. 2, Chen Sixuan breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the bench.

At this moment, Shu Qin, KIKI, Tall Building, Sha Sha, and Lu Xingchen gathered here, and Lin Xian shared the latest information with everyone, discussing the next steps.

"If that’s the case, if we don’t deal with that chemical plant monster, the marks on us will only increase as we flee, and eventually, we won’t escape being devoured," Shu Qin frowned, "So that’s where the root is."

Lu Xingchen clicked his tongue, crossing his arms with a deep expression, "I guess the people in this town also understand this well, so they’ve given up on fleeing."

Sha Sha retorted bluntly, "It’s not that complicated; they’re just a bunch of cowardly cowards afraid of death, colluding with night monsters, it’s shameless."

KIKI nodded, "Exactly, running isn’t an option, so let’s clean up this place and let them reap what they’ve sown."

"Lin Xian, what’s your plan?" Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian.

The crowd turned their gaze toward him, awaiting his plan.

Choosing to return from the earlier critical situation to gain this peace was not a reckless decision by Lin Xian, as everyone else agreed with Director Ding’s theory and embraced the decision.

"KIKI is right. In our current situation, the enemy is in the dark while we’re in the light, and we have more than one enemy to face. However, there’s one common factor. Now it’s dark, so, like us, they’re probably unable to do anything. We have a whole night to rest and make plans."

After a full day of battle, the team consumed a lot of ammunition, and KIKI and Lu Xingchen needed rest. Luckily, the situation had become a bit clearer for Lin Xian now, allowing the team to rest and plan before acting.

"What’s the plan?" everyone asked.

Lin Xian’s gaze flickered, "Sweep."

"Our return this time is for self-rescue. As soon as it gets bright, we’ll split into three groups. I’ll lead a team to the chemical plant to install remote bombs, Shu Qin and Brother Huo will clear out impostors in town, and another team remains on the train, wary of an ambush on our train from that group."

Chen Sixuan furrowed her brows slightly upon hearing this, "Isn’t it too dangerous to go straight into town to kill those monsters?"

"Doesn’t matter, I’ll act," Lu Xingchen remained unfazed with a calm demeanor, "These demons masquerading as humans must be cleansed by my Divine Fire. If not, I’ll burn the entire city if I have to, come what may!"

Everyone: ...

Lin Xian’s expression deepened as he looked at Shu Qin, "In fact, killing a certain number of parasites is not the primary task. Your main goal is to create noise, and the bigger, the better, to attract their attention. If you encounter that group, retreat to avoid casualties."

"A diversion?" Lu Xingchen raised his eyebrows, "Alright then."

"Huh?" Shu Qin had been considering how to deal with the impostors moments ago, not expecting Lin Xian to suddenly shift his focus.

"Isn’t it about exterminating them?"

Lin Xian said, "Capture the leader first. Even if we want to exterminate, we should wait until we’ve tackled the big parasite before slowly dealing with the smaller ones."

He didn’t finish, but what he thought was if they solved the big one, the marks would be cleared, making it unnecessary to go clearing out the small ones. Risking entering buildings posed a significant risk for the team, potentially leading to massive casualties without tangible benefits, only exerting effort without reward.

"If Ding Qing’s group strikes you in town, it will actually make things smoother at the chemical plant, indicating they don’t know our purpose is to kill that big parasite," Lin Xian explained his thinking.

"Normally, who would think we’re coming back just to face that big monster," Sha Sha added, "It sounds ludicrous to go back after finally escaping to fight it, risking our lives with no apparent gain. After all, all survivors worldwide are on the run, and only a few realize the marks’ existence."

"Not necessarily," Lin Xian replied, "Assuming they don’t know we’re here for the marks, that monster isolates Rain Town from the Abnormal Body source. To them, it’s like a Guardian God. Do you think they will act?"

"They’re really treacherous," Sha Sha quickly picked up the term from KIKI, angrily cursing.

Chen Sixuan nodded, understanding Lin Xian’s logic, but also expressed a worry-stricken face, "However, Lin Xian, those impostors shouldn’t be so easy to deal with, right? I’m concerned about Shu Qin and the others..."

"I know. As long as we don’t enter buildings, those impostors aren’t overly threatening. The trickiest thing is their disguise," Lin Xian said.

With that, he raised his hand, and a small peculiar device was created by him, which he handed to KIKI, "This is a soundwave detection device separated from the Sentinel System. The simplest way to deal with these impostors is to detect their heartbeat response, which is completely different from humans. Set up the sampling information, and Shu Qin and others can perform remote identification."

KIKI’s eyes lit up as she took it, "Wow, you’re smart, I didn’t think of that. The impostor’s breathing and heartbeat were all wrong. With this method, we don’t need to take any risks identifying them."

Upon hearing this, Shu Qin and the others were invigorated, feeling instantly confident, "Got it, Captain Lin, I know what to do now."

Lin Xian nodded, "Also, maintain communication within the team. That large parasite has a special parasite that can temporarily mimic our team members using human flesh and bones. This might be tricky, so to ensure safety, keep communication, and it will effectively help."

Although impostors pose a considerable potential threat, this threat stems mainly from disguise. Once the means to expose them are in hand, it becomes much less of a hassle.

Lin Xian kept contemplating various scenarios.

Shu Qin nodded, "I understand."
