Chapter 1205 encounters on the road

The train from Badissa to the southern Holy Mountain is the old steam locomotive from more than a hundred years ago. This locomotive is twice as large as the common locomotive in the Velon world today, and has an additional steam cylinder. In order to withstand the weight of this old steam locomotive, this locomotive uses a four-track railway, and each track is larger and thicker than the normal track in the outside world.

It was because this kind of steam locomotive was too bulky and the driving speed was not fast, so it was developed to develop smaller and stronger locomotives.

However, this shortcoming for others, in the wastelands of Mosang, has become an advantage, and is also the main reason why this railway and even other railways in the wasteland still use this locomotive and four-track railway.

Although this kind of locomotive is slow, the pulling force is very large, which can pull 150 largest carriages and trailers full of various cargo. No locomotive can break this pulling force record until now, and even half of the record cannot be broken.

Another is that this kind of locomotive is very strong. After more than a hundred years, it is still in good condition and has extremely small failure. It has three sets of linkage systems. As long as the cylinder is not damaged, even if one set of linkage systems fails, it will not affect its use. In addition, the locomotive has also installed an axe-shaped impact hammer specially used to break objects blocking the road. This unique equipment can make the train move unimpeded in places full of dangers like the wasteland.

Nowadays, most of these trains are used to pull ore, wood and other valuable things produced in wastelands. There is no dedicated passenger carriage. After all, every time you start driving, this kind of train requires a lot of fuel, and the cost is far from being compensated by simply passenger transport. Therefore, most of them are improved passenger carriages with two open-air trailer carriages at the end of the train, transporting few passengers. Naturally, such carriages are not comfortable. Moreover, because it is open-air, you can only get wet in the rain on rainy days. If it is in the upper carriage, it is okay, but if it is in the lower carriage, then you can only have sewage flowing from above.

Sylvia and Leo naturally would not be willing to squeeze in the open-air passenger carriages behind them. They paid some money and got into the driver's rest carriage behind the locomotive. Although half of the carriages here are used to fuel charcoal, the environment is not very good, but at least there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain, which is quite good for people like Leo and Sylvia who are used to sleeping in the wind and in the open.

The train's route includes Badisha and the Southern Holy Mountain, and there are a total of 17 stations. However, except for the two top stations, Badisha and the Southern Holy Mountain, the train will not stop in the middle of the journey, and will not stop even if it passes by the station.

However, they will slow down the train as much as possible at the station. Passengers who get off the train can jump directly to the haystacks specially provided on both sides of the station, and basically won’t be injured. Passengers who get on the train can grab the boarding platform specially built by the station and jump on the slow-moving carriage.

Generally speaking, there will be no accidents when getting on and off the train. After all, if the people who survived in the wasteland do not have agility, they would have been buried in the beast's belly. Those unlucky guys who rolled into the wheels of the train due to some unexpected accidents can only blame them for their bad luck.

"Damn the weather, I hope there will be nothing ahead of such heavy rain." The train driver who changed shifted the shift was shaking off the rainwater on his body and cursingly sat next to the stove. He didn't care about Leo and Sylvia sitting opposite him. He picked up a piece of baking potato on the stove and started eating.

"Will something happen easily in this kind of weather?" Leo looked at the storm outside the car, frowned and asked.

If the weather in the ocean is unpredictable and still has traces to follow, then the changes in the weather in the wasteland are completely irregular. More than ten minutes ago, the weather was still sunny and quiet, but now it suddenly turned into downpour and strong winds.

Each of the trees on both sides of the railway is fifty meters high, and the trunks require eight or nine people to hug them. Such thick and tall trees are now bent down in the strong wind, and even the leaves on the trees are blown away, leaving only bare branches and trunks.

"Of course, something is easy to get into, but it doesn't matter..." The driver reached out and patted the carriage and said, "This guy is so strong that even if something happened before, it can be easily solved."

Perhaps to prove the driver, after the train passed a turn, several huge trees collapsed and overlapped on each other and pressed on the railway tracks.

Facing the trees blocking the road, the driver in the cockpit shook the warning rope and notified the people behind the train, while shoveling a few shovels of fuel from the boiler, speeding up the vehicle and hitting the collapsed trees blocking the road ahead.

I heard a loud noise in the front part of the train, and the body of the car vibrated slightly. Then I saw the trunks that had been hit into two sections flew into the jungle on both sides of the railway, causing quite a while.

"How is it, it's amazing! This guy just hit and killed a mutant monster blocking the way. That kind of monster is very huge. Like Xiaoshan, it's still half of the body crushed by our big guy." The driver said proudly.

"Are there many mutant monsters I encountered on the road?" Leo asked again.

"More!" The driver took out an iron wine pot from the small cabinet next to him, opened the lid, poured a glass, and then signaled to Leo. Seeing that Leo didn't want it, he was about to put it back, but finally stuffed it into his pocket and continued: "I just left the edge of the city, because the hunters in the city regularly cleaned up the surrounding monsters, and the number was not large. After a while, when they penetrated into the wasteland, there would be more monsters. They were not like the guys in the wasteland. Those guys knew the power of the train and would avoid it when they heard the movement. Those monsters would directly hit the train. At that time, you just need to sit in the carriage and you would be fine. Don't stretch your body out with curiosity."

Perhaps to prove the driver's words, after the train entered a jungle, some mutant monsters rushed out of the jungle and crashed into the carriage full of goods behind.

Although the collision of these monsters was very powerful and even shook the train for a while, facing the thickened armor at both ends of the train and the weight of the train itself, their impact was obviously far from enough. The inverted hook mechanism that ejected with the impact force on the armor easily tore their bodies open. Some of them may not have died, but they have completely lost their combat power. In the jungle, some predators will solve them.

On the road that followed, the number of monsters that he encountered increased, so much that the driver became nervous. He no longer had the mood to talk to Leo. He had even arrived in the cab of the locomotive before he even changed shifts. Although the explanation to Leo and the others was that he was worried that he would not be able to be busy on the cab, he actually thought that the cab was safer. After all, the hardest part of the entire train was the locomotive. And if something happened to the car behind, the locomotive could be disconnected and escaped alone.

Just after the driver left, Sylvia, who had not spoken since the beginning, suddenly spoke, saying, "I felt the breath of the abyss."

"The breath of the abyss?" Leo was stunned for a moment, and also carefully felt the energy fluctuations around him.

However, the energy generated by the weather outside was too crazy, and he could not sense more specific energy details.

However, Leo did not doubt Sylvia's perception. She had already fully mastered the blood power of the Abyss Demon Dragon, and could be considered half an abyss creature, so she was naturally particularly sensitive to the power of the abyss.

Sylvia stood up from her seat and walked to the cabin outside the cabin. On the small platform at the junction of the two cars, then looked up at the dark and ink-like sky, constantly passing through the lightning-fire sky, and said, "The source is in the clouds."

Leo also walked out and looked up when he heard this, but this time he used spiritual vision and stimulated the power of the real eye. His extraordinary vision also made him easily see the situation in the dark clouds.

I saw two huge monsters fighting in the dark clouds. One monster Leo had encountered it, the bone butterfly that was injured by him. The other monster Leo did not recognize it. Although its shape looked a bit like some birds that had magnified dozens of times, its body, which was covered with pustules and constantly lowered its black oil substance, was obviously very different from the bodies of any bird.

The abyss aura was definitely not emitted from the bone butterfly. Leo, who had fought with the bone butterfly head-on, knew very well what the energy fluctuations emitted by the bone butterfly. The other monster was undoubtedly a mutant monster, but it seemed that this was the first time I saw it.

"Do you know what that is?" Leo asked.

"I don't know!" Sylvia shook her head and said, "But being able to fight head-on with the bone butterfly, it is obvious that this monster should be a strategic monster of disaster level." As she said, she turned to look at the jungle where mutant monsters kept popping up around her, and said, "The power generated after their battle was integrated into the rainwater, and these rainwaters stimulated the mutation of creatures. If they were not stopped, it would not take long for a monster tide to form here."

"Well! Let me do it!" Leo heard this, without saying anything, turned around and jumped to the train car, and walked a distance to the car behind, and arrived at the train car that filled the logs and wood, standing above a pile of logs.

With the emergence of Leo, some monsters seemed to regard Leo as prey and tried to rush up and eat Leo. Unfortunately, their power was obviously not enough. Not only could they not shake the moving carriage, but even the inverted hook armor plate on the outer layer of the carriage could not resist, and they were torn to pieces without exception.

Although the surrounding armor plates could withstand the impact of monsters, Leo did not take it lightly. He still cautiously took out several rune traps, activated them, and threw them to various positions around him in case of mutant monsters rushing into the carriage.

After making the protective arrangement, Leo began to cast the Soul Crystal Spear, because he needed to enhance the Soul Crystal Spear to reach the strength of the strategic level psychic skills. In addition, he was a little unskilled in using it, so it took some time to accumulate power.

The reason why he did not use a more skilled and effective lightning gun was not only because of the influence of the wasteland on psychic energy, but also because the soul crystal gun can be used with other powers, the more important thing is that he had tried lightning guns to attack bone butterflies before.

He knew very well that although the lightning gun could damage monsters of the strength of the bone butterfly, it was not enough to cause fatal damage to it. After being attacked by the lightning gun, he could still have the strength to escape a long enough distance, so this time he wanted to try the power of the soul crystal gun after upgrading to the strategic level of psionic skills.

As he continued to push his power to operate in the form of a spell module of the Soul Crystal Spear, two dark purple crystals that looked very deep gradually appeared in the palms of his hands.

These two crystals are suspended in Leo's palm and rotate continuously. Every time they rotate, the volume increases by one portion, and there is an extra crystal edge that spills outward on the surface.

When the crystal increases to the size of Leo's half body, the crystal surface has become like two maces, filled with sharp crystal edges of various sizes. This seemingly hideous shape does not make people feel scared. On the contrary, each crystal edge emits a different colorful light, making the entire soul crystal gun appear very gorgeous. Anyone who sees it has a feeling that the soul will fall into it.

Feeling that the soul crystal spear had almost accumulated strength, Leo saw the two monsters fighting in the sky and swung the soul crystal spear in his hand at them.

Two soul crystal guns instantly came out, rushing into the sky like two sharp arrows. When flying, some debris-like crystals were constantly peeling off from their bodies and scattered in the air, forming a star-like horse-like horse-like palm that looked extremely beautiful.

The crystal debris were not only beautiful, but also like the propelling flames at the tail end of the rocket, constantly prompting the soul crystal gun to accelerate. In less than ten breaths, the two soul crystal guns had already rushed into the airspace of the warring parties. Before the two monsters could react, they directly pierced into the bodies of the two monsters.

The mention of these two soul crystal guns is just a toothpick for two monsters as huge as a hill, but the power contained in the crystal gun is far from being measured by its size. When it pierces into the target, the power inside the crystal gun explodes instantly.
