Apocalypse: I Built the Infinite Train

Chapter 135: Sneak Attack



A deafening explosion erupted from the streets outside the railway tracks.

Everyone flinched at the shockwave, turning their eyes toward the scene—several Black Crow Convoy off-road vehicles had been blown to bits, flames roaring skyward, thick black smoke billowing into the air.

Huang Mao and his gang were completely obliterated, their bodies reduced to nothing but scattered shreds of cloth drifting in the wind.

Seated in the passenger seat of a heavy truck, purple-haired Lolo finally sensed the impending doom after watching Guo Lao’er, Huang Mao, and Da Yong drop like flies. Her face turned deathly pale, and her panicked gaze darted around, searching for Qiu Long.

The convoy was in chaos.

Among the Black Crow Four, Qiu Long was the strongest. His insane regenerative ability made him almost unkillable. As long as he was still standing, the convoy wouldn’t collapse entirely.

Meanwhile, Lin Xian noticed that more zombies were surging in from the city streets, the fog thickening around them. His expression turned grim.

"Shasha, cover me! That Ability User must be nearby!"

Whoever was controlling the zombie horde had to be taken out immediately. The undead army that attacked them last time had nearly derailed the train. Lin Xian wasn’t going to take any chances.

He grabbed his rifle and electric blade and charged out of the train.

Buzz!

A wave of telekinetic energy blasted outward, sending dozens of zombies flying and clearing a path for Lin Xian.

Shasha, following closely behind KIKI, jumped down and fired her grenade launcher.

Boom! Crash!

Boom! Bang!

The grenades exploded within the horde, sending limbs and rotting flesh flying. Meanwhile, Xu Pu’s team rained down a storm of bullets, mowing down waves of undead like dominoes.

Lin Xian, machine gun blazing in one hand and electric blade slashing in the other, charged deep into enemy territory, scanning for the Black Crow Convoy’s movements.

Ratatatat!

Gunfire erupted from the fog, but Lin Xian had already dodged, slipping past a wall by the tracks. In a flash, he lunged into the enemy’s vehicle formation, slicing down two thugs who were shooting at the train.

A drone buzzed overhead, relaying visuals to KIKI.

Her voice crackled through Lin Xian’s radio:

"Lin Xian, two o’clock! Black truck! Passenger seat—there's a woman!"

From the train, KIKI controlled the drone, zooming in on the footage. In the truck’s passenger seat, a strange woman with glowing green eyes sat nervously.

That had to be the Ability User.

"Target acquired."

Lin Xian didn’t hesitate—he opened fire on the truck’s cabin.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

His bullets pinged harmlessly off the armored plating and bulletproof glass.

However, the purple-haired woman inside flinched in fear.

"Gotcha."

Lin Xian smirked. She was the one.

Just as he was about to attack again, a sudden roar of flames erupted behind him.

Boom!

A fiery explosion burst into the air, and from within the blazing inferno, a figure shot out at high speed—

Qiu Long.

From Lin Xian’s blind spot, Qiu Long struck, his fist tearing through the air, aiming straight for Lin Xian’s skull.

"Damn it!"

Lu Xingchen had no time to warn him—Qiu Long was already too close.

But just as Qiu Long’s fist was about to connect, Lin Xian suddenly flipped his left hand—

A massive metal shield materialized in an instant!

BANG!

Qiu Long’s sucker punch, which should have been a guaranteed hit, slammed into solid steel instead. The impact dented the shield, but Lin Xian was completely unharmed.

Qiu Long’s eyes widened in shock.

Where the hell did that steel come from?!

Wasn’t this guy an electricity user?!

Before he could react—

BZZT!

A blinding arc of electricity shot toward his face.

It burned straight through his cheek, the searing current blasting out the back of his skull.

Though there was no blood spray, Lin Xian immediately kicked the shield, launching Qiu Long’s body backward.

Boom!

Qiu Long soared through the air—before he could even hit the ground, a pillar of fire roared up, engulfing him completely.

"Careful! This guy’s got insane regeneration!"

Lu Xingchen yelled from behind.

Sure enough—even after being electrocuted and burned alive, Qiu Long still wasn’t dead.

He burst from the flames, his charred body steaming, but instead of attacking Lin Xian or Lu Xingchen, he suddenly changed direction—

—rushing straight for Shasha and KIKI.

"Sh*t! He’s trying to take hostages and hijack your train!"

Lu Xingchen’s face twisted in fury.

He hated cowards who resorted to dirty tricks when they couldn’t win in a fair fight. Enraged, he kicked off the ground, flames erupting under his feet as he launched himself forward.

"I, the Flame God, am here! You dare?!"

Lin Xian, watching, couldn't help but facepalm.

"Damn… this guy is ridiculously overdramatic."

Qiu Long, on the other hand, was a complete idiot—

Of all directions to run, he just had to charge straight at Shasha and KIKI…

Qiu Long, realizing his convoy was doomed, was desperate. He failed to kill Lin Xian and couldn’t overpower Lu Xingchen.

But—

Shasha and KIKI seemed important to Lin Xian.

If he could capture them, he might turn the tables.

He lunged forward—

Only to suddenly freeze mid-air.

Qiu Long’s eyes widened in horror.

An invisible force locked him in place.

KIKI’s eyes glowed coldly, her hair floating as if weightless.

"Brother?"

Qiu Long was confused.

He saw a girl using an Ability, but why did the little one call for her brother?

And then—

A massive black silhouette suddenly charged forward.

A gleaming Steel-Slaying Greatsword swung down mercilessly.

Qiu Long’s pupils shrank.

Oh sh*t… her brother was here.

SLASH!

Qiu Long was cleaved in half, his torso separating from his legs.

KIKI, expressionless, simply flicked her wrist, tossing his corpse into the zombie horde.

The undead, smelling his blood, swarmed over, tearing his body apart in a frenzied feeding.

Lin Xian winced.

"Damn. Brutal."

Lu Xingchen landed, frying the remaining zombies with a burst of flames.

But upon closer inspection—

Qiu Long was already reduced to nothing but scattered chunks of meat.

"Uh… can he even regenerate from that?" KIKI asked, frowning.

Shasha, looking disgusted, muttered,

"He’s already zombie poop. No way he’s coming back from that."

Lu Xingchen, realizing he completely lost his moment of glory, suddenly felt awkward.

Until—

"Hey, Big Bro?"

Shasha pointed at the street.

"Is that… your RV?"

Lu Xingchen turned.

His precious Fire God RV was speeding away into the distance.

"OH HELL NO! WHO THE F* JUST STOLE MY RIDE?!"
