Ch. 33 - Ghost Train

Ch 33 - Ghost Train

After receiving congratulations from the crowd, Xun was not overwhelmed by joy. On the contrary, Xun was surprisingly calm and simply asked whether there was a financial allowance studying with Luo Shan, as she still has to support her family and treat her father's illness.

Luo Shan seemed to have known Xun's plight for a long time and not only promised to apply for the subsidy from the fortress, but also promised to help Xun get her father to the hospital for treatment once the mission was over.

Only at this point, the girl smiled and had a relieved look of relief.

Finally, she followed Luo Shan out of the tunnel.

Next, the remaining people just did not produce a lucky winner, so Han Shu announced that the gathering work began.

Two hours later, Pillar of Star had completed its gathering. It was cut and separated and properly stored.

When the last gathering team member left the tunnel, Tianyang followed Han Shu who was also ready to evacuate, just then, a dull sound rang out from the depth of the tunnel.

Tianyang then noticed that the silver hair scattered in front of his forehead, faintly brushed.

"There's a wind." The young man turned back to Han Shu.

Han Shu's eyebrows wrinkled, he picked up the communicator and said, "All vehicles, prepare to leave..."

Before he finished his sentence, the tunnel suddenly shook, and the violent shaking made Tianyang almost failed to stand on his feet.

A crack spread across the dome of the tunnel, and in the gap, pieces of sand and dust spilled down.

The ground even rumbled in sections, as if a wave had been set off!

"Run, this place is going to collapse!" Han Shu yelled, pulling Tianyang up and darting toward the exit.

Several people ran the road frantically, behind the tunnel came a loud rumble, and indeed a section collapsed.

As they ran out of the tunnel, Tianyang looked behind them and saw dust and smoke flying from the inside of the tunnel. In the dimness of the depths, there were two glows, like the lights of a train.

Then the whole tunnel collapsed and poured out a torrent, covering everything, and Tianyang had no way of knowing what she had just seen.

After he and Han Shu ran out of the tunnel, the ground was still crumbling, and the collapsed area spread nearly a hundred square feet before it stopped.

Standing at the edge of the collapsed highway, Tianyang gasped slightly and looked ahead to see that the roadway was fully sunken for nearly a block ahead.

The buildings on this area fell on the ground, just like blocks pushed down by naughty children, the dust flew, making the world, which was already not very visible, become more blurred.

Han Shu breathed: "Scared the hell out of me, I almost thought I was going to be buried alive just now."

Old Xu patted his shoulder and laughed: "It seems the Lord of War is not ready to accept you yet."

Han Shu grunted, "I'm not one of His followers."

He sighed again, "With the road collapsed like this, the original route is impossible, so it seems we can only go around here and..."

The ground began to shake again!

Three hundred meters ahead of the collapse area, a small mountain-like pile of rocks suddenly rises. The next second, the pile of rocks exploded, and small and large debris flew out in all directions.

At that moment, a huge black shadow broke through the ground, crossed the mid-air and crashed into a building in front of the convoy.

In that instant, Tianyang vaguely saw dim headlights, stained carriages, and a long, long arm!

He had no way of knowing what it was, but instinctively felt fear and panic, which is the nature of human beings facing powerful creatures.

The young man is still good, those gathering team members and some soldiers, directly scared to sit down on the ground. Obviously just now that scene, they also saw.

The thing crashed into the building, a rumbling sound, several buildings in a row tilted.

Han Shu turned around and yelled: "Don't stand still, hurry up and get on board. Get the energy cannons and stereo armament ready, and all Ascenders on alert, we may have a guest!"

The convoy reacted, and several soldiers got into the hunter chariot and activated the astromech cannon to standby.

The two Generation 5 Arms of Storm Squad got out of the transport, the pilot busily checking all functions and getting ready for the battle.

Several squads of Ascenders, on the other hand, with the remaining soldiers, set up a defensive formation and looked nervously at the collapsed building.

The loud sound of metal scraping against the rocks came out of that building. Suddenly, an indescribably terrifying palm reached out from behind a building and pressed on the ground.

On that palm, we don't know whether it was fluid or muscle writhing, from a distance, it was almost like a fat mass of maggots holding a piece and writhing continuously.

"All lights on, we need to see our opponent!" Han Shu yelled up.

The lights of all the vehicles, the gathering team's vehicles, the three-dimensional armed transport vehicles and the field medical vehicles, were all turned on, illuminating the area where the hand was.

Then, it finally appeared.

Tianyang did not know how to describe this thing in front of him, it was like a huge soft body reptile, the body was covered with dense flesh tumors, those things like will cages, emitting a yellow glow.

The tail end of the reptile, like a hermit crab shrunk in a few metal carriages, yes, the train carriages.

Looking in through the window of the car, you can see its black and green body. On the surface of its body, there are still some human bodies. These bodies are not even bones yet, with the surface wrapped in a thin layer of film.

That flesh membrane and the reptilian body connected together, looking like the passengers on the train, now turned into a part of it.

The reptilian body was wide in front and narrow at the back, with a dozen long arms growing on both sides, the arm structure was no different from that of a human, and you could even see the fingers, with nails!

We could not tell where was its head, and can not see the eyes. Rather, under the body of the bug, there was a horrible mouthpiece. When that mouthpiece was completely open, people can see that there are three layers of sharp teeth distributed inside and outside.

"What the hell is this thing!" Having been on several missions, but Cangdu had never seen such a monster, the ponytailed youth couldn't help but shout.

Old Xu's face then expression bitter: "It's a Ghost Train ........ This kind of dark creatures live underground and especially like tunnels. They will shrink a part of their body into the train, over time, the train and their body fused together, has been difficult to separate."

Han Shu also cursed, then said, "The last report of a Ghost Train encounter was eight years ago, when four Night Walker teams, only three survivors. Two of them were mentally disturbed, and the remaining one described the whole process of encountering the Ghost Train. But even him didn't know where is the will cage!"

Chen Liu's voice rang out in the communication channel, "Since we don't know, let's bombard with full fire coverage!"

Hearing the conversation between Han Shu and Chen Liu, Tianyang remembered how he dealt with the lead dog. With his ability [Weakness Sense], he could totally find out the will cage of the Ghost Train, and then focus his firepower to destroy it!

But at this time, a piercing whistle sounded, the reptiles named Ghost Train, each flesh tumor yellow light, alternating arm slashes, actually headed straight towards the defense line ....
