Starry Sky Railway: Twin Origins

Chapter 67 The Reassuring Red Beam

Upon receiving the command, the "Creation Engine's" eyes suddenly lit up, the dark red light shining brightly in the wind and snow, like a burning flame.

"Boom!"

With a series of roars, the various components of the "Creation Engine" began to operate rapidly, and it slowly raised its clenched fists.

Its fist gleamed with a cold metallic luster, standing out brightly in the hazy, snowy environment.

Immediately afterwards, the "Creation Engine" swung its clenched fists and slammed them down on the location where Lin Qiong and the others were.

The enormous shadows of the two fists, like two moving mountains, quickly enveloped the area where Lin Qiong and the others were.

"Oh no! Get out of the way!"

Lin Qiong's shouts echoed in the cold wind, his voice tinged with urgency.

He could clearly feel his heartbeat accelerating, the sound like a drumbeat, each beat feeling like a heavy hammer striking his chest.

At the same time, his adrenaline surged to its limit, and his muscles tensed up instantly under the stimulation of adrenaline.

Driven by adrenaline, Lin Qiong involuntarily began to run, the snow beneath his feet flying everywhere as he stomped on it.

At this moment, the others didn't dare to breathe and quickly ran out of the "Creation Engine's" attack range with Lin Qiong.

Just then, the "Creation Engine" attack landed, its fists like two meteorites falling from the sky, tearing through the snow and crashing to the ground with a devastating force.

A loud "boom" was heard.

The moment their fists touched the ground, a powerful blast of air erupted from the ground, instantly sweeping away the surrounding snow and creating a vacuum.

The platform that was restraining the "star core" could not withstand such enormous force and began to shake violently. Cracks appeared on the platform, as if it would collapse at any moment.

"Wow!!"

With this violent impact, everyone felt as if they had been pushed by something, their bodies involuntarily staggering and falling to the ground due to loss of balance.

Meanwhile, outside of the Yalilo-6, inside the observation car of the Starry Sky Train...

"Oh no, I have to go down and help them."

Walter Young suddenly stood up from the sofa, his eyes fixed on the live feed of the train.

In the scene, Lin Qiong and the others were thrown about by a huge shockwave, their figures appearing particularly helpless amidst the swirling snowflakes and dust.

Upon seeing this, Walter Young frowned, his expression instantly turning serious. He gripped his "cane" tightly, his heart filled with worry for Lin Qiong and the others.

Just then, a gentle female voice suddenly rang out in the carriage: "Don't rush, Walter."

The voice, tinged with amusement, accompanied by a hissing sucking sound, reached Walter Young's ears.

He turned his head to look at the source of the sound and saw a red-haired woman in an elegant long dress sitting in a corner of the carriage, holding a "delicate" cup of coffee, and looking at him with her head slightly turned to the side.

"This is Xingheqiong's first 'exploration' mission. How can it become a memory of youth without some pressure and setbacks?"

Himeko wore a faint smile as she took another sip of her coffee, the subtle hissing sound particularly loud in the quiet carriage.

"You've determined they're safe, right?"

Walter Young gently pushed up his glasses, his gaze towards Himeko filled with trust.

Himeko nodded slightly. "...Yes, no imaginary number reactions at the level of 'Star God' or 'Commander' were detected. Don't worry."

As she spoke, Himeko placed the coffee in her hand steadily on the table in front of her, then slowly stood up and walked to the window of the observation car.

Himeko gazed through the transparent glass at the white, hazy planet.

At the same time, a miniature satellite with a metallic sheen streaked across the sky in front of the observation car window and slowly came to a stop in Himeko's field of vision.

"This is a stage for young people; we shouldn't interfere. At most, we can offer them a little... 'off-stage assistance.'"

Upon hearing Himeko's words, Walter Young sighed softly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

He slowly sat back down on the soft sofa and murmured in a voice only he could hear, "Sigh, I really want to go down and see that big robot."

Walter Young’s words carried a subtle hint of nostalgia; at that moment, he seemed to be recalling the past.

Meanwhile, on Yongdong Ridge, Lin Qiong, who had been knocked down by the "Creation Engine," staggered to his feet.

He vigorously shook off the dust and snowflakes sticking to his head, and staggered again, clearly still unable to recover from the previous attack.

"This 'Creation Engine' is outrageous! Did Belloberg really create this? It feels even more powerful than the Doomsday Beast."

Lin Qiong looked up at the massive steel behemoth, the size of a mountain, his face filled with solemnity.

Just then, Cocolia, standing atop the "Creation Engine," issued another command.

"Creation Engine, crush them!"

"Boom!"

As Cocolia's voice faded, the "Creation Engine" spewed out large amounts of steam, and with a roar, its massive body began to operate once more.

The "Creation Engine" slowly lifted its left hand, which was stuck in the ground, leaving a huge crater in the ground. This shocking crater proved that the power of the attack just now should not be underestimated.

Then, the "Creation Engine" raised its left hand high once more, the huge mechanical fist like a meteorite, as if it would fall to the ground at any moment.

Looking at the "Creation Engine's" raised left hand, March 7's face turned pale, and an anxious look appeared on his face.

"Oh no, what should we do?"

March 7's voice trembled slightly; she simply couldn't imagine what would happen if the "Creation Engine" attack hit them.

Hearing his companion's voice, Dan Heng frowned, his expression hesitant.

His gaze kept shifting back and forth between the "Creation Engine" and Lin Qiong and the others, as if he were engaged in a fierce internal struggle.

However, just as the "Creation Engine's" giant fist was about to fall, a dazzling red beam of light pierced through the swirling snow and shone directly onto the "Creation Engine's" massive body.

At the same time, a gentle female voice rang in everyone's ears.

"...Hello, can you hear me?"
