Armed Train in the Apocalypse-Chapter 362 - 245: "Whale!

Only Su Huan and He Jie, the high-level evolutionaries, could stand steadily in place.

Liang Kuan sat in a large chair, gripping the control lever tightly, the warning lights on the dashboard in front of him glowing blood-red.

The factory manager’s voice echoed on the screen, "Don’t fight the whirlpool, that will only tear the train apart prematurely! We also need to separate the two trains, there’s too much air in the armed hall, affecting the sinking speed!"

"How much longer for the explosives?"

Su Huan suddenly turned his head to look at He Jie below.

He Jie shivered, gritting his teeth, "It was ready thirty seconds ago!"

"Have them delivered to the front of the train, don’t take the armed hall."

"Understood!"

He Jie decisively turned and dashed out.

The blue light in Su Huan’s eyes dissipated, and the train, which had been struggling to resist, instantly lost its power.

The train was swallowed section by section by the whirlpool, and the factory manager on the screen was also flung out of view by the immense force.

Liang Kuan gave up controlling the train and began to yield to the terrifying power of the whirlpool.

The connections in the armed hall began to break apart, and the two trains that had not been separated since Shun’an suddenly split like a zipper, turning into two lines.

From a width of sixteen meters to two trains, each five meters wide.

The pressure instantly reduced significantly.

Because the cultivation cabin was attached to the main train, the descent speed increased rapidly.

Armed soldiers carried boxes of explosives to the front of the train, though slightly panicked amidst the wild swaying of the train head.

Yet seeing the train conductor standing on the command platform, they quietly returned to work mode.

"Boom boom boom..."

With only ten seconds left, boxes of explosives had filled the entire train head.

The staff looked at the explosives in fear.

Not knowing if they would be blown to pieces or torn apart by the whirlpool in the next second.

"The energy reaction below the whirlpool has strengthened——"

"Bang!"

The armed train seemed to hit something, suddenly rocking violently in the water.

Instead of being "sucked" down, the massive steel was "pushed" into the water by some force.

Like a giant slowly pressing a coin into asphalt, relentless, firm, and undeniable.

One second, the train was still on the edge of the whirlpool, and the next, absorbed into the whirlpool’s center by a terrifying force.

All of the train’s riveted armor began to groan; those bolts unstirred by acid rain now twisted and deformed visibly, only to be bent back into place by another tremendous force.

The explosives in the nose didn’t crash into the carriage ceiling due to inertia.

But hovered mid-air.

An electric wheelchair squeezed through the gap in mid-air.

Like space-floating ammo boxes responding to the wheelchair’s push, moving aside.

Suddenly, the train head emitted a sharp wail, with a high-pressure water jet shooting into the cabin, shattering a monitor and causing even the panoramic screens to flicker.

Xiaoba, seated in the wheelchair, raised his hand, metal color in his eyes dense as iron, halting the high-pressure jet abruptly.

"The whirlpool’s suction has intensified; even if the entire train were to explode now, it wouldn’t break the whirlpool!"

Professor Ma laboriously climbed up from the ammo box behind Xiaoba, shouting at Su Huan on the command platform.

A prolonged "whoooooo—" vibrated through the carriage, interrupting Professor Ma.

The sound wasn’t heard; it rolled over the ribs directly, forcing the heart to beat in time with it.

The people instinctively looked towards the driver’s seat at Liang Kuan, but he hadn’t made any move to sound the horn.

At the highest point, Su Huan sharply raised his head towards the panoramic screen, narrowing his eyes to the extreme.

Under the current he infused, the screen ceased to flicker.

Everyone witnessing this inside the train head simultaneously took a cold breath, the chill spreading from the chest to the whole body.

The terrifying image assaulted everyone’s nerves.

Even the usually elegant Professor Ma had his mouth wide open, unable to utter a word.

On the screen, where the deep water lay heavy as an abyss, two lonely beams of light leaned against each other, extending continuously towards the bottom of the whirlpool, threads of light diffusing in the water, illustrating the immense "flat shoal" beneath the whirlpool.

Following the vision along the ultimate smooth "flat shoal" forward, it even exceeded a hundred meters.

The slightly undulating "flat shoal" converged downward at the edges.

Though unbelievable.

As these details relayed back to their brains, everyone’s mind simultaneously outlined an enormous creature.

"A whale!"

"Whoo————"

The sound seemed to rise from the abyss, like a giant hammer striking a bronze bell sunk at the ocean’s bottom.

Visibly, ripples spread layer by layer in the water, reaching the train, causing the metal to issue a fragile sound like glass.

Inside, the screens and lights went out like dominoes, extending all the way to the command platform.

In an instant, the entire train plunged into darkness.

Heavy, dead silent.

Two points of pale blue cold light suddenly lit up, scattered arcs like webs torn apart by some ecstatic force, outlining eyes carrying a sinister smile.

"The real deal is here after all..."

In the whirlpool’s center teeming with undercurrents, an absolute quiet settled instead.

The "slender" armed train wielded the Alps Hammer, facing a hulking creature not inferior to itself in length. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

That whale call seemed to be locating the armed train.

The giant whale slowly raised its head.

Instantly, the entire water area began to boil.

The pale blue electric light also suddenly bloomed around the armed train.

The whale controlling the water and the dragon mastering lightning simultaneously issued their declarations of war.

Whale and dragon, vying for the sea!

"Liang Kuan, accelerate!"

The suppressed laughter seeped from the train into the entire water area.

In the dark water area below, lightning roiled.

The shadows of two enormous creatures collided, a terrible energy rolling forth from the depths.

In the whirlpool’s center, a water column suddenly sprayed from the surface.

Shooting straight into the sky, electric light entwined around the water column, reaching nearly a hundred meters high.

Triggering the clouds above.

In an instant, a sky-reaching thunderbolt descended into the water.

...

Jingchao Lake, Lake Heart Island.

Amidst stormy winds and rain, a group of diminutive figures knelt along the island’s edge.

A few in black robes stood at the front, hearing the earth-shaking thunder, the Second Priest raised his head painted with oils.

Catching the connected heavens and earth water column.

Shouting excitedly in a fervent and high voice, "My god has manifested, now is the time to offer the sacrifice, the ritual has officially begun!"

Those kneeling behind reverently kowtowed towards the water column direction, then rose and departed.

The ones remaining moved towards the cloaked priests in black.

Dividing into three distinct groups.

A strong woman with horns on her head hurried to a minimally populated priest side, helping him up, worriedly saying, "High Priest, the ritual has begun..."

The High Priest grasped the woman’s firm arm, stood up, adjusted his wide hood, looking towards the distant water column.

Clouded, pale eyes moved, chanting incomprehensible mutterings.

"Ah Duo, wait, just wait, the deity’s proxy will appear in the ritual, it’s the revelation my god gave me."

"How do I find him?"

The woman stubbornly pursued the question.

"... There’s no need to go looking, when he appears before me, I’ll naturally recognize him!"

The High Priest babbled mystically.

The woman glanced at the increasingly populated Second Priest beside her; he was also watching her at that moment.

It was a determined look, like a wolf selecting its prey, cold-eyed.

Ah Duo curled her lips, exposing fangs like a beast, intimidating the other.

But fear had already uncontrollably stirred in her heart.

If the ritual presided by the Second Priest were successfully completed, the High Priest’s lineage would totally fall behind.

Everyone else could leave, but as the chief warrior, she decidedly had no chance to surrender.

The Second Priest had been "coveting" her for a long time.

(Today going to pick up a new car, tomorrow need to visit the future father-in-law’s house to prepare engagement matters, too much going on, running around here and there, making my mindset a bit scattered, missed updates several times, actually the outline was set to explode update last period, but only next month now)

(By the way, asking for votes!)
