18:20, outside the workshop of Xilan Weapons Manufacturing Factory, nearing nightfall, the wind and snow began to howl.
With the appearance of the light curtain in front of him, large amounts of ashes slid from Lin Xian’s hand.
"200 points, not bad."
Most importantly, both the molybdenum-tungsten corrosion-resistant alloy and titanium alloy are military-grade materials, which would be more efficient for the Preparation Factory transformation.
At this mont, KIKI was sitting on the lid of the arc lting furnace, bored, using telekinesis to stack a pile of tal fragnts in front of her like building blocks, while practicing her precise control over telekinesis.
Seeing Lin Xian finish on his side, she glanced over and pointed at the arc lting furnace below her.
"Is it ti for this?"
Lin Xian soared over with the help of KIKI’s telekinesis, landing on the arc lting furnace, looking down: "This thing should be fast."
This industrial-grade large arc lting furnace, although bulky and heavy, reaching 30 tons, is fundantally not very complex chanically, and Lin Xian doesn’t need to scan blueprints, so devouring it should be faster than the chanical arm.
[Devouring progress 1%]
Sure enough, as Lin Xian operated the chanical Heart and activated the devouring power, he felt a joy in his heart, thinking he should be able to handle this big guy in about an hour, not much harder than a freight car’s compartnt.
However, as night approached, Lin Xian’s nerves habitually began to tense.
"No need to worry~"
KIKI casually sat on the lid, addressing Lin Xian: "With so many convoys outside, the city should be quite safe, besides~"
She hugged her knees, looking toward Lin Xian: "You have this lady to protect you."
Lin Xian looked at her seriously: "Sit properly, stay alert."
"Oh~"
Seeing Lin Xian so earnest, KIKI quickly adjusted her posture, thought for a mont, and then flew over to sit next to Lin Xian, facing his back, and imdiately gazed up at him: "I’ll watch the back, you watch the front, that should do, right?"
Lin Xian glanced at her, inhaled deeply, and said nothing further.
Beep, beep~
"Teacher Chen."
From the communicator, Lin Xian remained in contact with Infinity.
"Everyone ca back safely, don’t worry." In the living cabin of Infinity, Chen Sixuan looked at the spirited team mbers, saying to Lin Xian: "When will you return?"
"About two or three hours." Lin Xian estimated the ti.
"Okay, then I’ll lead people to store the supplies first, and inventory them."
After confirming the situation with Infinity, Lin Xian’s mind slightly eased, now fully focused on awaiting the arrival of night.
18:30, night descended.
The darkness swept across the skyline, seemingly engulfing the storm vortex as well, with only the thunder to be heard in the sky above.
The once busy crowds on the city streets had disappeared at this mont, each convoy fully ard to maintain a defense stance at nightfall, with everyone looking grim, survivors throughout Xilan City instantly felt a chilling sensation.
At this ti, the artillery on the monster-repelling front line in East City and Southern City suddenly intensified, beams from electromagnetic guns pierced the sky, the North City started launching flying devices into the air.
Almost every night the scene was like this, and the seventh Investigation Corps had long prepared for nightti warfare.
After ten minutes passed, the city remained extrely quiet, at which point the vehicles on Central Street began to relax, lights and bonfires reigniting, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
This signaled another safe night had arrived.
Both Infinity and Dragon Mountain No.1 were likewise prepared, but despite realizing there were no Abnormal Body attacks, those inside the carriages gradually relaxed.
Chen Sixuan stood in the cockpit observing for a while, then proceeded to the information center, checking through the Sentinel Monitoring system, after confirming no issues, she communicated to Lin Xian.
"Lin Xian, Infinity is all clear."
Inside the dim factory, Lin Xian and KIKI sat on the cold arc lting furnace, hearing Chen Sixuan’s words, they both sighed in relief.
"Looks like Xilan City is indeed relatively safe." KIKI exhaled deeply.
A telekinesis shield emitting a faint glow enveloped them, perhaps it was an illusion, within the shield, it seed the temperature wasn’t as cold.
"The zombies and Abnormal Bodies within the city have been cleared, with Phoenix Society guarding the periter, plus those city defense weapons, it truly is..."
Lin Xian’s expression slightly relaxed, his gaze scanning the darkness inside the factory, outside high windows, the convoy camps parked outside and on the street flickering with glimrs of firelight.
"Relax now, hurry up~" KIKI clicked her tongue: "I’m already hungry~"
"Alright."
Lin Xian softly said: "Soon."
The two spoke quietly, not wanting to attract attention from other convoys, Lin Xian refrained from lighting up.
In the darkness, KIKI leaned her back against Lin Xian’s shoulder, softly murmuring: "Lin Xian, will we ever go sowhere warr?"
Lin Xian opened his mouth, wanting to say no but ultimately spoke with a deep tone.
"The Dark Tide has shrouded the sunlight, it will only beco colder, but if we manage to escape this Extre Cold Vortex, perhaps things will be slightly better."
"Can’t you even lie to a little." KIKI said irritably.
