Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train Chapter 414 - 265: Interlude of Wind and Snow4

Moreover, this place is far from other survivor caravans, so he can devour more freely. Although Lin Xian doesn’t mind revealing his chanical superpower, devouring a large number of train carriages for no reason would still be quite astonishing. It’s best to avoid unnecessary trouble, and he can’t do this in a group of unfamiliar caravans.

"This one, then."

Lin Xian climbed onto a mine car carriage, swept away the snow on top with one foot, and pondered.

Just as he was about to start devouring, he glanced around and suddenly brightened his eyes upon discovering sothing. He jumped down again and ran along the track forward, scanning the carriages one by one until reaching the front of a freight train, where he saw a big machine parked there.

It was a powerful electric locomotive of the Longwei class, entirely massive, divided into two sections, with a combined length of over 60 ters, entirely yellow and black. One carriage housed a high-power traction motor while the other housed an energy reserve system and auxiliary motor. Although it appeared sowhat old, it still looked quite sturdy.

Lin Xian didn’t know much about this model, but after finding the locomotive’s naplate, he learned that this traction locomotive was mainly used for mining operations, with a power of up to 70,000 kilowatts, stronger than the previous Ring Star 7F electric locomotive.

"As expected of an industrial tropolis, to have such a big machine."

Lin Xian directly placed his hand on it, the chanical Heart spread out, but before long, his face suddenly changed.

"Broken? No wonder no one took it."

In the apocalypse, such a driving train has little value without energy, and being broken didn’t help. Lin Xian checked and found the problem was with the electrical system, which was very easy for him to repair. However, for other survivors, repairing the electrical system of a heavy-duty electric locomotive in a post-apocalyptic environnt is not an easy task.

Now Lin Xian understood why these survivors had parked in Xilan City for so long, yet this electric locomotive was still here. After all, many doomsday trains now have small onboard nuclear power systems, so taking a Longwei electric locomotive on the road shouldn’t be a problem.

If it weren’t broken, it probably wouldn’t be his turn.

"Just lucky to find this opportunity." Lin Xian gained interest, as this electric locomotive can greatly ensure the voltage stability for the Twin Star Nuclear Powered Locomotive and, being sturdy, can provide up to 70,000 kilowatts of power output at critical monts, perfectly eting Lin Xian’s plan.

While the carriages cannot be directly connected, he only needs to cover it well with heavy armor plates and a monitoring system, leaving other things alone. At worst, he can station a PX-05 robot inside the carriage for command maintenance.

Speaking of the PX-05 robot, Lin Xian plans to build more of these in the future. They can act as chanical repair assistants to help Lin Xian solve many problems and conduct repairs during combat. In critical monts, they can deliver items to teammates. Once the program is set, they can be fully used as service robots on the Infinity.

So with that decided, Lin Xian imdiately began devouring the freight carriages behind. Once the tracks were cleared, he planned to repair this Longwei electric locomotive and then move it back to mount behind the Twin Star Nuclear Powered Locomotive, then start manufacturing new armor plates.

Buzz~

The speed of 4th level chanical Devouring now is more than twice as fast as when at Yushan Station. Originally, it took about 30 minutes for a freight carriage; now Lin Xian needs only about ten minutes to make a ten-ton empty shell carriage disappear on the spot.

Clatter~

As the carriages turn into ashes, a large amount of snow quickly falls. Seizing the night, Lin Xian devoured more than a dozen freight carriages in less than two hours.

After all this busywork, the chanical Source Point only increased by over a hundred points, but his purpose was simply for materials. Now the disassembly center was wealthy again. After finishing everything, Lin Xian began repairing that Longwei electric locomotive.
