Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

Chapter 285 Confrontation between two parties

Su Li's gaze quickly swept across the list in front of her, and suddenly, a familiar name caught her eye—Lin Tongguang.

It was the same person who had traded the furniture bed [Anning] with him using a radar plug-in. Lin Tongguang's train looked exceptionally sturdy; clearly, their team possessed a special type of steel that had transformed the train into a heavy-duty vehicle with extremely strong defensive capabilities.

Besides Lin Tongguang, the other people on the list also seemed familiar to Su Li. After all, players capable of exploring worlds above version 1.0 were the high-end player group on Earth. Su Li's name was already well-known in this circle, and he had some impression of most of these players.

For example, a person named Shi Lei, whose name contains many stones, sounds like someone who is sturdy and durable.

His combat philosophy was to avoid close combat with the enemy as much as possible, and to rely on the train's strong defenses and long-range artillery to attack the enemy.

In his words, it's so painful to get injured in a fight. People should learn to use tools, utilizing various artillery and unmanned machinery to eliminate the enemy; that's the right way.

Therefore, he embarked on the path of a mechanic. He strengthened train defenses and used drones to attack enemies.

His team consists of eight people, all of whom are mechanics who share his philosophy.

This squad, despite their seemingly weak individual strength, is incredibly difficult to defeat in a real battle, thanks to their various drones and artillery emplacements.

In this setting, they were truly at home. Their train was also the only level 6 train present.

At level 6, he unlocked the rail modification function. The rails in this area twisted and spiraled, forming a circle, which was his work.

Su Li said with a happy expression, "That's great, it saves us the trouble of getting to know each other."

This group of people is a bit too active.

—Caw, it's the Sun and Moon Divine Sword! Even if I die now, it'll be worth it!

That's amazing!

Shi Lei—What's wrong with you? Get on defense!

Su Li smiled as she watched.

Zurich first needs to meet up with these eight convoys.

These trains gathered together, running on eight intertwined tracks, while on their periphery were foreigners driving cars and riding in flying shuttles.

The vehicles of the three parties each have their own unique characteristics.

The train has a large cargo capacity, low fuel consumption, and powerful onboard artillery. Its drawbacks are its long length, making it difficult to defend against, and its fixed route.

Cars have a small cargo capacity and their onboard weapons are not very powerful, but they are very agile.

So far, there are no apparent drawbacks to the flying shuttle. It can fly, dive into magma, and has a very powerful cannon.

Currently, it's a chaotic battle between three players and two local residents.

And without a doubt, the chaotic battles between players are the core of this battlefield.

Zuli's train quickly moved closer to his teammates, and the shuttle following behind him also moved closer to the shuttle.

Zurich—What's the situation on the other side?

Zuli wanted to get some information first.

Shi Lei—that flying shuttle is a damn platinum-level guy! Let's take them down!

Su Li paused for a moment, and then a surge of killing intent welled up inside her.

The Platinum Man supports Su Xing, a traitor from Blue Star. Among these traitors, Su Xing is the most bloodthirsty, clamoring to kill the Holy Mother in the apocalypse. With the help of the Platinum Man, he specializes in killing those who help others in the channel.

The Platinum People are a race of metallic lifeforms, and a truly disgusting one. They idolize the strong and bully the weak. Those stronger than them are treated like sycophants, while those weaker are not even considered intelligent beings.

Shi Lei – It's this group that's always causing trouble. We were originally planning to cooperate with the ones using tanks, but then those platinum-haired people rushed in and attacked us.

Shi Lei—and then we started fighting. As the fighting went on, we accidentally hit the group with the tanks. The tank users were brainless; they just started fighting us back, and it turned into a three-way melee.

Zurich's train successfully reunited with its companions, having been hit by numerous attacks along the way. The workshop in the rear carriage was directly pierced by the beam attack of the flying shuttle.

However, the opposing shuttle was also in trouble. As soon as they fired, the outer protection of the crystal beam cannon would be canceled. At this time, Sophia could snipe accurately, and the opponent would have to replace the internal crystal.

After Sofia destroyed several of their crystals, they are now becoming hesitant and timid.

Lin Tongguang – Well done, Ms. Sophia.

The arrival of Su Li and his team brought a sigh of relief to the players from the Blue Star civilization. Before this, they had been constantly on the defensive, as the enemy's beam crystal cannons were incredibly powerful. On the Blue Star players' side, only four of their eight vehicles were capable of retaliating; the remaining four had to act as human shields, protecting their teammates from attacks.

But as soon as Sofia arrived, the opposing team immediately fell silent.

No one's resources come from thin air. These Platinum players are actually the lower-level players and the new generation in the Platinum player group. Their advanced players are all Silver and Gold.

Given the Platinum Players' personality, they are unlikely to take care of those at the bottom of society; all they can get are the benefits that society provides to all players.

Of course, because Platinum players are very wealthy, these benefits already allow them to crush players of many other races.

One of the weaknesses of the Platinum People's shuttles is their extremely high energy consumption. Even at level 6 or lower, their vehicles can fly and burrow underground, swimming in lava. Such powerful performance comes at an astonishing cost; their shuttles not only consume magic crystals and elemental fragments, but also the energy provided by the Flame of Civilization.

This high energy consumption could only be improved when their vehicles were upgraded to level 11 and an internal magical energy circulation system was established.

This is why the Platinum people became a predatory civilization; their energy deficit was too great, and they couldn't support themselves without robbing.

Similarly, Platinum-level players are mostly those who prioritize stat allocation. Faster progression allows them to acquire more items.

Unfortunately, this game isn't at its initial launch, and everyone starts from the same point. What's the use of running fast if there are races that have been running for hundreds of years longer than you?

The Platinum people later suffered many setbacks due to their eagerness for quick success. Now they are in an awkward position, stuck in the middle, lacking the strength to move up. They can't afford to slowly develop their own civilization, so they can only continue to plunder weaker civilizations, while simultaneously undertaking a difficult transformation.

As for the other race driving chariots, Su Li glanced over there and found it extremely offensive.

Those driving the chariots had very rugged chariots, possessing a kind of post-apocalyptic wasteland aesthetic. The race driving these chariots somewhat resembled the green-skinned orcs from World of Warcraft, a game Su Li had played. Green faces, fangs, and bulging muscles—they didn't look very intelligent.

Their tanks were also 20 meters long, and on some of them, there were fearless green-skinned soldiers beating drums and singing war songs.

Their attack method also involves large crossbow bolts. The vehicles pose little threat, but the individual strength of the vehicles is considerable; Zuli spotted two Silver-tier Greenskins.

They had been trying to board the shuttle or train, but the vehicles weren't fast enough.
