"Hey, are you okay? You looked like you were going to faint earlier."
Seeing Lin Xian about to leave, KIKI asked in a deliberately casual tone.
"Just like before, it’s just overuse of energy, nothing serious." Lin Xian replied.
"Then~"
KIKI said, suddenly flying over with her legs wrapped around Lin Xian’s waist like before, clinging to his neck like a kangaroo, staring at him with big eyes: "Do you want to accompany you? I can protect you~"
Lin Xian saw the bloodshot eyes of this little girl, her fresh little mouth now dry, sighed inwardly, directly picked her up and carried her to her bed, bending over to lay her down.
"In this state, who can you protect? Wait until you wake up~" Lin Xian said softly to avoid disturbing Sha Sha sleeping above.
Seeing Lin Xian dare to refuse her, KIKI was instantly furious. Although she lay on the bed, her hands and feet refused to let go, clinging stubbornly, defiantly saying: "Oh, so you look down on my superpowers, huh? Believe , I’ll..." she said, defiantly, as she prepared to bite Lin Xian’s nose as a small ’lesson’.
But Lin Xian had long seen through this girl’s move, leaned forward, and kissed her small mouth.
Pop~
This unexpected action stunned KIKI, her grip reflexively released from Lin Xian’s neck as she covered her mouth: "You!"
Lin Xian seized the opportunity to escape, touched his lips with a aningful look and said, "Trying to sneak a kiss from , huh? Well, we’re even now."
"I... I didn’t sneak a kiss from you!"
KIKI was flustered by Lin Xian’s shaless reaction, realizing she had been outdone, she was about to erupt as a spoiled girl when she saw Lin Xian looking at her seriously and said, "You desperately want to follow , is it because you want to sneak a kiss when I’m not paying attention?"
"Pah!" KIKI’s face flushed with red and blue, spat at him fiercely, pouting and glaring at Lin Xian, then, feeling a bit guilty, she averted her eyes, turned over pulling the blanket to cover herself and turned her face away with a light snort: "Humph, if you don’t want , then fine. Freeze to death outside for all I care~ Bye, I’m going to sleep."
Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of amusent flashed in his eyes, and he turned around silently and left.
Teacher Chen and the little girl had been with him since the day Infinity departed from Jiang City. He certainly felt their concern for him, a feeling that surpasses the loneliness under the apocalypse winter, warming the heart.
As Lin Xian left, KIKI lying in bed secretly turned her head, watching Lin Xian’s departing figure, biting her lip in frustration, with a complex expression, not knowing what she was thinking.
Then she closed her eyes, not eting what was unpleasant, silently chanting to herself, sleep fast, sleep fast, sleep fast...
The Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube inside the car shielded the fear and invasion power from the night and blizzard, making the inside of the Infinity carriage less chilly than the outside, calming the entire train carriage. Lin Xian took a deep breath, opened the car door, and stepped into the snowy storm.
The solitary silhouette of Fenglan Mountain lood above, while outside, people from Dragon Mountain No.1 were busy with steel plate welding, the sound of cutting machines ran non-stop through the night.
Lin Xian saw the warm yellow lights in the double-decker cars, many families resting in the living carriages behind the armor, children erging from safety compartnts staring blankly out the windows, looking at Lin Xian as he passed and waving at him.
Lin Xian smiled slightly in response and waved back.
Then he climbed atop the train, using the vision enhancent system of his Power Armor to survey the snowy mining freight station, with a vast plaza filled with thousands of containers and freight boxes stacked high and covered in snow.
The rail system extended all the way into the foot of the distant mountain, which had been completely sealed off and seed to have collapsed.
Lin Xian continued to climb a tower crane, looking out to see the surrounding city walls, where the distant skyline still flickered with firelight, though less intensely than when they first arrived. Despite being in the snowstorm, for so reason, Lin Xian felt a strange sense of security for the first ti in months.
He had been fleeing alone in the night for so long without feeling this way.
No zombies or Abnormal Bodies had been found in the city so far, with at least thousands of Survivor Caravans gathered inside. Seeing the survivors resting safely in the snowstorm, earlier than them, Lin Xian believed everyone on Infinity or Dragon Mountain No.1 would envy them imnsely.
Looking toward the direction of the mine, Lin Xian noticed many freight trains transporting iron ore stopped there, and he breathed a heavy sigh and imdiately set off.
Walking against the snowstorm for about ten minutes, several abandoned mine carts appeared in sight, many buried deep in the snow, with only the car bodies protruding above the snow layer.
Freight carriages generally serve no purpose for survivors, not even as a shelter, so they are usually ignored, but Lin Xian, with the chanical Heart, found these large chanical structures could offer abundant materials.
Additionally, Lin Xian’s current needs for materials were not only advanced but also large in quantity, making these freight carriages stretched for hundreds of ters very useful for him.
