Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

"They ran 100 kilometers with us; to be honest, that kind of dedication is a bit frightening," Ivan commented.

Su Li's expression was solemn. "Don't underestimate a wild beast's tenacity towards its territory."

It's not uncommon for monsters to die in territorial battles.

The axe-ice fish gradually caught up from afar, and it was clear that he was in very poor condition.

The Icefish is not a monster known for its endurance and speed, and this 100-kilometer run must have taken a toll on its life.

But the Icefish was overjoyed, because the strange enemy had finally stopped.

The icefish, with all its might, burrowed underground.

"Preparedness to withstand shocks".

With a loud crash, the locomotive bounced up.

Then, a 5-meter-long figure emerged from the ground, coiling around the front of the car like a snake.

Su Li and the others were inside the train, watching helplessly as the train's exterior caved inward.

"Magic Slash!" Su Li's blazing greatsword pierced into the section of fish body protruding from the window.

The greatsword cleaved through the window and pierced the body of the Icefish.

However, after only a dozen centimeters, the greatsword was firmly gripped by strong muscles, and even the golden flames on the greatsword dimmed slightly.

[Tsk, the quality of the magical energy is overwhelming.] Su Li thought helplessly. The difference in magical energy quality between the two sides was too great, making it difficult to deal significant damage.

The icefish wasn't alarmed when it was hit in this spot; it simply treated it as a prey's normal struggle, since it was only its tail and not a fatal area.

But he will soon realize he was wrong.

It opened its mouth, which was full of barbed teeth, and bit down on the front of the train.

A sickening metallic tearing sound rang out, making one's ears ache.

【Ivan, stuff the crystals into the boiler!】

Upon hearing Su Li's order, Ivan took out a large number of elemental crystals from a box that had been prepared in advance and stuffed them into it with Sophia.

Su Li pulled out his mountain-like weapon. There was no solid ground to stand on, so it was difficult to activate the mountain-like weapon. Otherwise, he could have given this thing a good whack on the tail.

However, his mission was already accomplished.

Song Mingyu's face was pale, a side effect of using a large amount of magical energy in a short period of time.

Song Mingyu used a breathing technique on the axe-ice fish.

The Breathing Technique is used to help teammates recover from common abnormal statuses such as paralysis, poisoning, and burns. However, the current Axe Icefish doesn't have any abnormal statuses. The virus he carries has become symbiotic with him and is no longer considered an abnormal status.

Next, she took out a small test tube, identified the blood vessels in the icefish's wound, and then inserted the test tube into the blood vessel, squeezing all the contents into the blood vessel.

Song Mingyu used the regulating breathing technique on it, not to help it heal, but to check the general physical condition of the Axe Ice Fish.

Breath regulation is a healing skill; if it's not malicious, it's generally not resisted. Through breath regulation, Song Mingyu can roughly understand the energy flow within the Axe Ice Fish's body.

Because of this situation, she can use another ability.

Pointer function.

This skill has always seemed only useful for stopping bleeding by applying pressure points. The reality is that, in many situations, Su Li and his team have sufficient damage output, so it's unnecessary. When dealing with those giant parasites, the size difference is too great, rendering it ineffective.

Now, with its massive tail fin removed, this axefish is 4 meters long, no longer considered a behemoth, and the pointer technique can finally come in handy.

Song Mingyu activated the demonic energy within her body, first having Su Li forcefully break through the enemy's skin, and then she used her pointer technique on the enemy from a distance.

The green magic energy needles condensed by the pointer technique instantly entered the body of the Axe Ice Fish, accurately hitting several energy channels within its body.

[Alright, I've temporarily blocked the energy channels within his body. His magical energy circulation and movement will be somewhat restricted.]

Song Mingyu has made progress, and Sophia is also close to success.

Sophia remotely enchanted the elemental crystal, inducing a conflict within its magical energy. Once the setup was complete, Ivan closed the boiler door and switched it to overload mode.

"20 seconds, run!"

At Sofia's command, Su Li and the other three quickly ran outside.

The icefish wrapped around the front of the car sensed a large amount of energy gathering inside the enemy's body. It instinctively felt something was wrong and wanted to loosen its grip on the enemy, but at that moment, it suddenly felt that its lower body was extremely stiff.

Not only that, the bacteria in its body experienced an explosive growth, a sudden burst that triggered a large number of ice crystals inside its body, attacking its internal organs.

The Icefish let out a mournful cry, and in a fit of rage, raised the giant axe on its head and smashed it down hard at the energy core of the enemy it had sensed.

"boom!!"

A five-colored explosion appeared in the snowfield, and Su Li and the others lay on the ground, mouths agape and ears covered.

Even so, Su Li felt a sharp pain in her eardrums. The blast of air pushed them around like tumbling gourds, rolling on the ground for a long time.

Zuli collapsed in the snow, even losing her oxygen mask.

He felt dizzy and lightheaded, with a constant buzzing sound in his ears. The nausea and headache made him feel terrible all over.

Then, he felt a warm light envelop him.

Su Li rubbed her temples, looked up, and found that it was Ivan treating her.

"Thanks, I'm much better now. Where's your sister?"

"Sister, it's okay."

Coming to her senses, Zuli looked in the direction where the train had been. The area was now a mess, with a cloud of dust formed by swirling snow and mud, enveloping the entire train engine.

"Did it work?" Ivan swallowed hard. That attack had used up all the elemental crystals they had acquired in this world, and even lost a significant portion of their original stock. The power was truly astonishing.

"Hard to say, have you ever heard of 'no injury despite smoke'?" Su Li helped Shan Qing slowly stand up. "This guy is tough and resilient."

Song Mingyu interjected, "I think I triggered the bacteria in his body. I gave him a concentrated virus cultured from the viral glands of the snake-bear beast I hunted before, along with the nutrient solution I used when I was culturing the virus recently. The premature outbreak of internal injuries should affect the magical energy defenses in his body."

Su Li was shocked. Good heavens, you've actually figured something out.

Seeing Su Li's surprised look, Song Mingyu remained calm. "The technical skill required to make this isn't high. The important thing is the virus sac of the snake-bear beast. This medicine is too concentrated to be preserved. It can only be made and used on the spot, which is very troublesome to prepare."

Sophia, standing to the side, looked unwell. She had consumed a lot of magical energy during the chase, and had just used a large amount of magical energy for a temporary enchantment. Her body was now drained of magical energy, and her meridians were twitching and aching all over.

The dust settled slowly. Su Li and the others looked nervously at the front of the car. After traveling a hundred kilometers, they had been hit by both the elemental explosion and the virus outbreak. Even a Silver-level fighter could die instantly.
