My Doomsday Territory

Chapter 478 The earth is expanding

Green, station.

Several trains are parked in the maintenance area.

The outer armor is contaminated with dried and solidified liquids, car connections, armor gaps, etc., and some pieces of meat are stuck, and the air is full of disgusting smell.

This is already cleaned.

Every night the bus returns to the green, and the crew maintenance personnel must start repairing the damaged area on the train.

At the same time, clean the armor of the train. Some demon beasts wrapped in the train have not been completely cooled. The train guards slaughtered it.

Five days have passed since the Sanctuary incident. The number of people pouring into the green from the Sanctuary space has begun to slow down. The green-horizontal line has resumed twice a day.

In this way, the train will inevitably suffer damage on every trip. If it is not maintained frequently, small damages will become large damages, which will affect the performance of the train. At a critical moment, the car may be killed or killed.

No one dared to despise, and sometimes the maintenance lasted from night to early morning.

At four or five o'clock, the sky was still dark, and the vast wilderness and darkness in the distance made people panic.

The source lights of the train station are bright.

Zhao Ming greeted his comrades on duty at the train station, took the remaining five team members, walked out of the train station, and walked all the way along the railroad track, over the outer city area, the figure was quickly submerged in the darkness, only a few lights, slightly shaking With.

The cold wind blew through, carrying the icy cold straight into the bone marrow.

The worst is the only one who awakened Mie, shivered, wrapped tightly in his coat, and exhaled a cloud of hot air.

Zhao Ming's five people didn't change their faces. They wore tight combat suits and only one jacket. They looked thin, but it was enough for the five people who had been quenched.

They are the railway maintenance team.

The five Zhao Ming are from the defense corps and belong to the frontline of the masters. Their strength ranges from seven to nine.Along the railway, there is a distance of one or two hundred kilometers. On the way, it will pass through some third- and fourth-level hazardous areas. Therefore, the maintenance team has a high military configuration to ensure that no accidents occur.

The other person is an awakening person in the railway department and a "professional" in the maintenance team.

Within ten kilometers of the shelter, it is basically equivalent to a safe area, and the demonized beast has been hunted into a protected animal.

When the distance becomes farther and deeper into the area where the awakeners have less activity, the demonized beasts suddenly increase.

Poof—

Zhao Ming will demonize the head of the demon beast with a sword, cut the skull carefully to take the source crystal, and kick the body away from the rail.

The tactical helmet he wears, like a miner's hat, is embedded with a source lamp with adjustable power, and the light emitted is not very bright, which not only protects the vision of Zhao Ming and others, but also does not attract the attention of the demon. .

This is not the first time they have received this task for railway maintenance. Zhao Ming started with the two team members standing on the wings, and the other two kept the speed behind the palace unhappy or slow.

Professional maintenance staff, riding a wolf puppet, is located in the center of the team, the flashlight beam shines on the rails, the demonized pieces of meat after the train is run over, clearly visible.

As time went by, a ray of dawn appeared on the horizon.

A loud noise came from the front, and a wall of earth appeared in the sight of several people.

This is an outpost under construction, close to the railway line. After it is completed, it can be used by awakening people to settle down and supply, to better clean up the surrounding demon beasts. In the future, a "green shade defense circle" will be built. This outpost can also be used. Changed to a transit station to continue to play a role.

After the outpost, the journey was about halfway through.

Several people in Zhao Ming calculated the time while advancing.

Demonized beasts generally do not work on the rails, but occasionally some grumpy crushes pass by. At this time, maintenance needs to be stopped. Fortunately, the skilled experience before the end of the world, in conjunction with certain general techniques developed by the "Skill Institute" , And the corresponding props, most small problems can be easily solved.

"Team Zhao, there is a problem with the rail in front."

The maintenance personnel who had been staring at it for the first time found the problem.

Several people walked more than ten meters forward to the problem area, and saw that the railroad track had been broken, and the fracture marks were not smooth.

It is quite a serious problem.

Today's train on this line needs to be delayed.

Zhao Ming frowned, took out the mental power communication crystal (sub), and reported the situation to the shelter. He lamented that the morning vacation must be broken, and he had to concentrate on the broken rail.

"This broken mark does not seem to be bitten by a demonized beast, nor is it a mark of trample and claw damage, but it seems to be broken by a huge force."

He thought, looking around.

The rails are infiltrated with special metals, and the hardness and toughness can reach the level of D-class alloys. It is not difficult to destroy, but if it is pulled and broken... Zhao Ming is not clear whether he has such a strength.

But then it felt wrong again.

If pulled by vigorous force, the rails on both sides of the fault zone should be scattered in a serpentine shape. In fact, the beams under the rails are still intact. In this section of the fracture alone, the beams and sand are scattered.

Make Zhao Ming messy in the wind.

...

This matter was first reported to the Ministry of Railways.

After some inspections, they were reported to the Municipal Department. After Chen Haiping was informed, they spread to Tang Yu's ears.

The Luyin-Huiyang line found three broken rails.

It looks similar.

However, it is not just this line. Several other lines have similar situations. Even the green-adjacent line with the highest security level, it seems logical that there are very few demonized beasts active in this area. Two or three cracks in the abyss have been suppressed.

But there is still a fracture zone.

He had to pay attention.

One of the fault zones is within the territory.

Tang Yu was able to study meticulously and soon had a conjecture: "The land under our feet is constantly expanding in scope, so... will the rails be pulled apart?"

In other words, has the earth expanded?

The origin star in its heyday was very huge. Tang Yu studied it and believed that part of the space was folded and contracted because of silence.Now, as the source gas recovers, the origin star gradually moves closer.

It should be a good thing.

With the opening of the Holy City that day, the concentration of the earth's source gas rose again.

If the source concentration of an ordinary planet is 1, then the concentration of source gas will be about 2.5 when the end of the world erupts, and it has continued to increase since then, about 7 or 8, and in recent days, it has reached the level of 11,12.

The originally sleeping elves will gradually wake up.

Tang Yu had locked some places where elves might appear. From time to time, he sent investigation teams to look around, looking forward to turning one more elf or two and hanging on the territory.

Some rare materials may gradually appear on the earth in the future.

It's just that the earth is expanding, and patrols like railroad tracks, city walls, etc. must be intensified.

...

The train was delayed until eleven o'clock and finally departed.

The impact is not large.

Unlike a few days ago, the train is no longer as crowded as canned sardines, and the trains rushed to the field, and some of them are senior adventurers who have received commissions. Instead, the awakeners who have only recently arrived in the shade have been nestling. There was no going out in the shelter.

They all have a lot of Yuan Jing in their pockets, set up a rune equipment, went to the martial arts hall to listen to an open class, entered the training camp to practice and fight... I am happy, I feel stronger every day.

Perhaps it was only after they emptied the source crystal in their pockets that their strength had improved and fell into a bottleneck that they suddenly realized that they had entered into a mode of making money... and then were harvested again.

But they are also happy.
