CHAPTER 410: CHAPTER 264: MIST SHADOW XILAN_4

"It’s the support fire and bombing units, don’t panic!!"

"We’re about to enter the city!"

Bam bam bam!

On the city wall behind the refinery, dozens of large-caliber railguns fired in unison, causing a chain of explosions in the raging Snow Demon Tide!

Boom boom boom!

Beep!!

The power of the large city defense weapons is far beyond the vehicle-mounted weapons of the Joint Train; caliber means power. The Great Wall-50 base railgun array, combined with the Iron Curtain defense and anti-air system made up of anti-air missiles/electromagnetic guns/Close-in Weapon Systems, hundreds of heavy artillery towers, along with a main force of the Interstellar Army Investigation Corps and Xilan City’s unique terrain, can fully be considered a fortified stronghold that is easy to defend but hard to attack.

Under cover, the Joint Train rushed into the outer city along the Xilan mine line from the rail station, riding the wind and snow. With layers of defense, the Snow Demon Tide behind vanished without a trace, the wind and snow gradually stopped, and a weighty city beneath a mountain range came into everyone’s sight.

The large buildings in the city were shrouded in darkness at this moment, but as they moved further in, countless lights lit up in the city center and various streets. These were all kinds of caravan camps, and even some people temporarily moved into the buildings to shelter from the wind and snow, making some streets appear brightly lit. Many gazes in the city were directed at the Joint Train coming with wind and snow. When the Infinity and Dragon Mountain No.1 passed the city’s outer passenger track and began entering Xilan City’s main train station, they saw numerous Doomsday Trains parked on the reserved and branch tracks.

These trains varied in appearance, some of the carriages were still lit, while others were fitted with thick armor plates, airtight.

The waiting room was crowded with people, with various tents and bedding covering the ground.

The Investigation Corps Guard, armed to the teeth, was scattered all over the platform, and from the moment they entered the city, Lin Xian and others saw at least dozens of mechas of various types.

Besides the ’Iron Guard 3’ military assaulters, Guardian 2, and Guardian 3 light assaulters at the frontline, there were also Lin Xian and their T8-Z Fire God Military Assault Types, and even Destroyer Heavy Military Assault Types.

Furthermore, within the city, there was no shortage of Big Dipper Special Industrial Type mechas used for material transportation, as well as various types of drones.

Most of these belonged to the Phoenix Society, featuring a unified mechanical paint job. Some were from the Survivor Caravan, having undergone strange modifications.

Unlike when entering Yu Bei City, many of the Survivor Caravans here had highly upgraded and iterated firepower, with more large and special vehicles appearing. A caravan of over a hundred vehicles, jointly equipped with small nuclear devices, could only be considered a medium-sized caravan. Lin Xian and others even saw a large square filled with a large caravan group, bearing the same paint job, called the Arctic Wind Alliance.

"There might be fifty thousand people in this city." Chen Sixuan looked out the window and said.

"By the timeline, today is already the 29th. The Phoenix Society in Xilan City announced the evacuation as the 31st, which is very late. It’s almost sticking to the tidal coverage edge of Star Abyss No.5 for evacuation. Why don’t these caravans leave earlier?"

The Phoenix Society chose the last moment to evacuate to wait for more survivors heading to Xilan City. Since the time has been announced, the official organization surely won’t leave early.

However, survivors do have the choice to gain replenishments and rest in Xilan City and then head east early to catch the Dawn Center.

Lin Xian said solemnly, "They fear the herd effect, but they know that following the main force is the safest."

Shu Qin nodded: "Surely some will leave early, but most prefer to follow the Phoenix Society. In the apocalypse, people tend to depend on crowds, so they would rather wait until the last day to evacuate."

Lin Xian looked at the snow-laden city, where aircraft occasionally flew overhead, and in the distance, the city wall’s tactical searchlights flickered, bringing an extremely rare sense of security inside the city.

"Two more days... I hope everything goes smoothly."
