Chapter 1256: Chapter 484: Storm Coast (2)
Ryuji pointed his sword to slice, meanwhile his eyes flashed violently with the light of superpowers. This move clearly operated the power of the crystal grid, and the terrifying dissolution force created was more than ten times stronger than the previous simple shock wave.
Moreover, he seemed to have found a more efficient combat method. The humanoid creations controlled and constructed looked like large lumps of iron assembled from scrap metal, but they surged with a powerful dark energy. Sparks flew with every movement, and they all flew agilely in the air. Ryuji effortlessly created four or five of these giant steel constructs.
Lin Xian, on the bridge, noticed this scene and his eyes brightened slightly, thinking that this was indeed an impressive superpower. To some extent, it seemed like a ’summon version’ of mechanical superpower. Ryuji must have been influenced by him and Mochizuki Masashi, knowing not only how to effectively unleash his superpower but also discovering this efficient combat strategy that allowed him to attack and defend without having to be on the front lines himself—a truly smart approach.
"Attention, there are living things in the black tides, both in the sky and in the sea."
Monica and Qian Deli each arrived at the towers on either side of the Sky Dome Train, equipped with electromagnetic railguns and anti-aircraft weapon systems. As soon as they were in position, they sensed dense dark energy fluctuations surging.
Boom!
The Sky Dome Train dragged the military intercontinental train like a steel beast breaking free from its cage, crushing through the fractured rails and rushing into the Pacific Ocean rail network. Sparks erupted fiercely below the iron wheels as the engine’s roar shredded the silent air surrounding Oahu Island. Standing atop the tower, Monica’s pupils reflected the hellish scene behind—thousands of nautical miles were swallowed by the rolling black sky curtains. The asphalt-thick tides of the Star Abyss surged at the edges, a nauseating crimson tide devouring the last line of the sea horizon with visible speed.
Watching this scene, Monica’s eyes flickered, coldly stating, "The arrival of Crimson and the expansion of Star Abyss seem to be completely different things."
"It looks like there will no longer be any concept of day or night." On the other side, Qian Deli clasped his arms and said, "There’s no point in dawn either."
"Everyone, be aware; I’m going to accelerate again. Based on observations, it shouldn’t catch up with us."
Lin Xian’s voice sounded in the communicator as the floating power and magnetic levitation propulsion system of the Sky Dome Train began to accelerate again. Outside the porthole, the bright memory of Hawaii shattered completely as the seawater receded rapidly at an irrational speed, exposing vast jagged and filthy seabed areas, as if the entire ocean was being swallowed in a single gulp by the dark sky curtains.
"Crimson can’t catch up, but what’s in the sea is another matter."
Sha Sha observed the sea below, where white lines stretched for thousands of miles from behind the Sky Dome Train, continuously spreading out. As they moved closer, Sha Sha realized that those whites were bubbles bubbling up from the tides, boiling like water.
Lin Xian nodded, looking ahead, "And there’s a tsunami."
The sky dome was ink-black, and the gale roared like dragons. At this moment, the Sky Dome Train felt like a sharp sword, speeding eastward along the ocean rail. But at the end of the visible rail, Lin Xian saw an almost completely black area growing larger—a hill rising from the sea.
Yet in the magnified view from Lin Xian’s power armor, that wasn’t a hill but a giant tsunami at least eighty miles wide and hundreds of miles long, a black wall of Hell advancing towards them ferociously!
"Can we fly over it?" On the armed train, Ning Jing solemnly watched that terrifying tsunami, asking.
"We should be able to..."
"It’s coming!"
Before Lin Xian finished speaking, Monica and Qian Deli’s voices exploded in his ears. The 1130 Close Defense Cannon and electromagnetic railgun bases on the Arsenal Ship automatically rotated, instantly roaring with firepower!
Splash!
Below the dazzling white waves, sensing the energy roar of the Sky Dome Train, countless black objects broke through the water, dense and swarming, launching aggressively towards the rail above. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be countless strange fish resembling squid, their small tentacles shimmering crimson, jetting out of the water like a conical sword aimed directly at the train.
The 1130’s firepower web swept across, instantly raising a blood mist in the air, accompanied by the clanging sound of metal bursting—these strange fish were incredibly hard.
Most bizarrely, instead of blood essence bursting forth, those strange fish erupted with large swaths of crimson blood mist. And that crimson blood mist didn’t drift away with the wind but lingered in the air, beginning to spread, like red scars remaining in the sky.
The appearance of these blood mists seemed to agitate the abnormal bodies in the sea even more. At this point, an orange serpent, thick as a water barrel and more than ten meters long, suddenly emerged out of the crimson, forcefully blocking a cloud of electromagnetic explosion, then directly opened its bloody mouth wide—black dark energy surged from its mouth toward the 1130 Close Defense Cannon on the train’s flank.
Whoosh!
Unexpectedly, a golden beam of light shot precisely from the distant tower, piercing the serpent’s head directly. The black dark energy in its mouth exploded immediately, raising a fiery explosion, causing the train’s static electric field to flicker sharply.
"Those blood mists don’t seem right," said Qian Deli, standing atop the tower, slowly retracting his flashing right foot, his expression grave.
