"Hehe, that’s more like it."
Kiki seed to really enjoy the feeling of having control over the situation, chuckling as she continued, "What about the remaining carriages? How do you plan to arrange them?"
Lin Xian looked towards the train corridor: "My idea is this: carriages 1 and 2 remain unchanged, carriage 3 I’ve promised to Director Ding as the research carriage, so that will also remain unchanged, carriage 4 I plan to modify slightly to serve as a plant cultivation chamber, carriage 5 is where the Building and Lu Xingchen reside, that will be a defense carriage. To equip it with a mix of light and heavy weaponry, I intend to store a subset of the weapons there, and I’ll also install a blast-proof automatic door for easy access by ard personnel."
"Then there’s carriage 11, which will be used for storing tools and miscellaneous items. We can keep two high-spec vehicles from our armored vehicle and Shu Qin’s side. I will design a large liftgate for easy vehicle unloading. Sotis we also need these cars and motorcycles for exploration and mobility."
Lin Xian’s gaze then turned to Chen Sixuan: "The remaining carriages will mainly be for living quarters. Teacher Chen, do you have any suggestions?"
Chen Sixuan’s expression lifted slightly upon hearing this, feeling valued by Lin Xian, and without fuss, she earnestly began, "Carriages 6 to 10 can all serve as living quarters. However, my suggestion is to turn carriage 6 into a dining car, carriage 7 for storing supplies. Shu Qin has a few won who are skilled in cooking who can take care of logistics. With so many of us now, we can arrange for the entire train’s food supply. All the food supplies can be concentrated in carriage 6, the dining car, and carriage 7 for storage. This centralized managent will allow us to accurately assess our food supply situation and also help prevent hygiene issues."
"Then carriages 8, 9, and 10 we can directly convert from the passenger train’s sleeping cars. Each carriage has 12 compartnts, and each compartnt can accommodate at least 4 people. With our current numbers, it would be enough for everyone to have their own compartnt."
Chen Sixuan continued: "Another thing is shift rotation. Although you ntioned setting up the Sentinel System, I think we still need to rotate people for daily watch. There are too many unpredictable dangers in the night, and sotis people are more sensitive than machines."
Lin Xian and Kiki looked surprised.
"Wow, Sister Chen, you’ve thought it through so carefully."
Lin Xian nodded in agreent: "That’s good, I agree with this arrangent. Each carriage has a gate system, and with the internal communications system, coordinating will be more convenient. If we have a dining car, we won’t need to look for places to eat everywhere and can manage food more easily."
"There’s one more thing," Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian: "You haven’t arranged for Director Ding yet. Are you just going to let her live in the lab?"
"I’ll go ask her about it in a bit," Lin Xian thought for a mont and said.
"Oh, right." Kiki also spoke up: "I have a suggestion: firing ports. We now have many people and guns; we can’t design every carriage to have lift-and-fall shooting chambers, right? So, for the rear living quarters, we could design so closable firing ports for defense. Speaking of which, Teacher Chen is now proficient with sniper rifles. We should also add one to carriage 1."
Upon hearing this, Chen Sixuan quickly waved her hands, anxiously saying, "Carriage 2 has a roof-mounted bulletproof shooting cabin. I can use that; it’s even more convenient. Plus, I’m not yet that... proficient, so no need to specially make one for ..."
"Not proficient?"
KIKI looked shocked: "Sister Chen, you’ve turned that Superpower User into a cellphone stand, and you’re still not proficient?"
Cellphone stand...
As soon as Lin Xian heard this, he was stunned for half a second, then quickly realized there was so truth to the taphor.
After so discussion, Lin Xian preliminarily confird the upgrade and modification plan for the train. Although there were many issues, one cannot beco plump by swallowing the whole pie in one go. The transformation of the twelve carriages wasn’t a simple task, but fortunately, there were enough hands on deck and plenty of ti, along with various tools, making it very suitable for undertaking the refitting work.
The final plan was confird as follows: Apart from the lead and tail power units, Carriage 1 would be Lin Xian’s Life Cabin. The current space was rather vacant, so Lin Xian decided to make good use of it. He abandoned the original carriage and prepared to take a new luxury passenger cabin for the transformation. It included an independent and sealed first-class living area with decent privacy, and a large, clean bathroom convenient for several girls to use. Aside from that, there were also many usable storage areas for placing so important materials there.
Carriage 2 had already been transford into an information center, so the carriage itself wouldn’t change. As it needed to integrate more components, the unused spaces could be conveniently designed for use. KIKI and Sha Sha’s beds had been modified into the kind of encapsulated cabin spaces used by crew mbers. Considering the need to design a bulletproof cabin on the roof as well as reserving space for the electromagnetic railgun, this carriage was the most complicated in terms of the entire train preparation.
Carriages 3 and 4 were originally Cole 3 Type Biological Research Cabins with a high level of technology. Lin Xian needed to create a series of Plant Cultivation Chambers or so hydroponic support structures for the transformation of Carriage 4. Also, he had to integrate the water purification system and the air circulation system of the carriage here, ranking it as the second most troubleso carriage.
Carriage 5’s main modifications included automated blast doors and an ascending firepower platform convenient for Building fire suppression, followed by designing so gun racks for storing the weapons of the Survivor Caravan.
Carriages 6 and 7, to be transford into a dining car and storage carriage, seed much simpler for Lin Xian. He had already acquired quite a bit of kitchenware and household items previously at Yuchi, and Shu Qin’s original caravan also had so. Lin Xian only needed to build so simple dining tables, chairs, and food storage cabinets. He also had blueprints for the Bier TG-56 type comrcial freezer from Jiang City; building several units would allow storing so foods with shorter shelf lives.
For Carriages 8, 9, and 10, Lin Xian would simply undertake minor transformations of the passenger train’s sleeper carriages, adding so armor on the exterior and essentially being done. When the ti ca, Shu Qin’s caravan could live there, with plenty of remaining space, not too crowded for the ti being.
Carriage 11 was Lin Xian’s original Tool Carriage 5, which housed tools, motorcycles, and three modified armored vehicles. The addition of automatic doors and large ascending sideboards would make loading and unloading people and vehicles more flexible.
Lastly, Carriage 12, where Lin Xian planned to create a 1130 Close-in Weapon System. Currently, his materials were sowhat insufficient. However, after towing two intercity transport train engines and carriages from Jiazhou, along with the thirty-plus cars parked outside and Shu Qin’s vehicles, devouring these and converting them through the Preparation Center should roughly suffice.
If he could get this massive weapon up and running, Infinity would be much more composed when encountering zombie hordes or Abnormal Bodies of grade C or B in the night.
Additionally, there was the equipnt for this batch of Survivor Caravans. Shu Qin was still leading people in collecting and organizing, which should also yield a decent haul.
Beyond these, Lin Xian planned to add explosive-proof surveillance outside the train and a sentinel system composed of an active phased array radar in the front, conducting 24-hour monitoring outside the entire train. Simultaneously integrating the electric knife’s blade module design from the previous GK03 on the train, installing it near the leading-edge armor, providing robust protection against Zombies and anyone attempting to climb aboard.
In doing so, with the outer armor, Sentinel System, Outer Armor Electric Blade Device, combined with the Divine Artifact, Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube, and Soul Swinging Value Detector within the train, the defensive capabilities and safety of Infinity would reach an entirely new level.
