My Doomsday Train Chapter 72

“Impressive burst, but lacking in stamina.”

Inside the Stellar Train, Chen Mang, seated at the control panel, squinted at the rearview mirror where the two rabbits were gradually showing signs of fatigue.

These monsters, resembling red-skinned rabbits, had terrifying explosive power, their peak speed even rivaling that of his Stellar Train.

They didn’t seem to have any long-range attack methods.

However, their stamina was lacking, maintaining their peak speed for only half an hour before gradually slowing down. Now, they could only manage a top speed of 150 km/h. Just then—

“Hmm?”

Chen Mang noticed dozens of red dots appearing on the Targeting Radar screen at the front, unmistakably from the Level 1 Train he had just passed. He immediately sounded the horn in warning. While these two Level 3 monsters were merely troublesome for him, they would be a catastrophic disaster for the Level 1 Train.

In the past.

The Train Conductor of the King of Electronic Music Train had honked in warning under similar circumstances, and now Chen Mang carried on that tradition.

The next moment!

He saw the Level 1 Train quickly start up and flee into the distance under the cover of night, just as he had done that day.

Chen Mang glanced back at the two rabbits in the rearview mirror. He had thought the monsters might be distracted by the Level 1 Train, given its slow speed and apparent vulnerability. However, he might have underestimated the hatred stirred by interrupting their joyous pursuit.

From beginning to end.

The two rabbits hadn’t even glanced at the Level 1 Train, their eyes blood-red and faces ferocious as they clung closely to the Stellar Train.

“I don’t remember rabbits being this vengeful,” Chen Mang muttered as he observed the scene.

“…”

Inside the Level 1 Train, a young man with white hair looked at the departing Stellar Train and the two swiftly moving red-skinned rabbits behind it, his eyes filled with fear and gratitude.

He remembered this train; it had sped past him playing DJ music without a care when the night had just fallen.

And now it had warned him to evade the monsters.

Although the two red-skinned rabbits didn’t seem much of a threat, their speed alone was enough to prove many things. He was a novice Train Conductor, still unfamiliar with the changes in the world.

Much of his information was self-taught.

“Phew”

The young man exhaled deeply, looking at his white hair in the mirror. In the apocalypse, he naturally didn’t have the means to keep dyeing his hair. The white hair had appeared overnight shortly after the apocalypse began, when communication was still possible, after hearing his parents being devoured by Zombies that had broken into their house during a call.

A young man’s hair turns white.

Only after losing family.

“Finally here!”

At the control panel, Chen Mang looked at the screen showing the Doomsday Abyss just ahead. He deliberately slowed down, allowing the two rabbits to get close enough to the train to create more blind spots.

The next moment—

Under the effect of the red accessory “Wheel Changer,” the Stellar Train quickly extended its “Spider Legs” and retracted the “Wind-Fire Wheels.” The process was seamless, with no lag, and the train’s speed wasn’t significantly affected.

Then!

The mechanical legs at the front of the train suddenly began to transform rapidly, with several nozzle-like structures appearing on their surfaces. In the night, they shot out two thick strands of Spider Silk.

The Spider Silk, like agile serpents, quickly landed on either side of the Doomsday Abyss, firmly adhering to the ground.

Like a ladder materializing out of thin air.

The train, without losing speed, climbed the Spider Silk spanning the Doomsday Abyss with its mechanical legs, as naturally as a spider climbing its web.

In the blink of an eye, it was over the Doomsday Abyss.

The two rabbits, upon seeing this, desperately tried to stop themselves, but their speed was too great. In despair, they plummeted into the depths of the Doomsday Abyss.

The Doomsday Abyss was a staggering 6,000 meters deep.

At such a height, few carbon-based lifeforms could survive the fall, not even Level 3 monsters.

But—

It wasn’t over yet.

The Level 5 “Makeshift Heavy Machine Gun” atop the Stellar Train almost immediately locked onto the two falling rabbits. The “Train Auxiliary AI” quickly calculated their trajectory, and the gun roared, flames spitting into the night like fireworks.

Several bullets shot straight towards the two rabbits like meteors!

Almost instantly.

“Bang, bang”

At the sound of the gunshots, Chen Mang saw the two rabbits explode into a mist of blood mid-air, and the items they dropped were instantly sucked into the train carriage by a “Powerful Magnet.”

Then—

Several lines of crimson text quickly appeared on the Stellar Train’s control screen.

“Congratulations, you’ve successfully secured the first kill of the Level 3 Red-Eyed Rabbit boss.”

“You may choose one of the following first kill rewards.”

These crimson lines scrolled across the screen several times, but that wasn’t all. Soon, a line of text framed in gold slowly appeared at the top of the screen, accompanied by fireworks blooming around the edges, and a voice echoed in his mind.

Or rather.

It echoed in the minds of every Train Conductor in the “Iron Ridge Wasteland.”

That night, countless Train Conductors were awakened by this voice.

“Iron Ridge Wasteland Regional Broadcast”: Congratulations to the Stellar Train for successfully securing the first kill of the Level 3 Red-Eyed Rabbit boss, becoming the first train in all regions to kill a Level 3 Red-Eyed Rabbit.

“Phew.”

Inside the Stellar Train, Chen Mang, seated at the control panel, looked at the scrolling text at the top of the screen, took a deep breath to calm himself, then lit a cigarette, took a long drag, and couldn’t help but chuckle softly amidst the swirling smoke.

He was now very grateful.

Grateful that he had named his train “Stellar” and not something like “Overthrow Everything.”

The name “Stellar” sounded sophisticated and classy in the regional broadcast. If it had been “Overthrow Everything,” it would have been quite embarrassing.

After upgrading the “Spider Legs” to Level 13, the second supermodel effect obtained was the ability to shoot two strands of Spider Silk up to a hundred meters forward. These strands could last for up to an hour, allowing the train to travel smoothly on them.

It was this supermodel effect that allowed his train to span the Doomsday Abyss like a spider.

However, each use consumed 100 units of Spider Silk.

That day, the Dwarf Man had coincidentally given him an extra 200 units of Spider Silk, enabling him to use this method now.
