Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

Chapter 321 Magic Storm

The entire team sprang into action quickly.

Zurich first derailed the train, then put the three carriages together, thus changing the train's dimensions from 75*5 to 15*25.

If things go wrong and you need to move, simply use the train reset function on the control panel. With a little effort, you can reset the train back onto the track, which is very convenient.

Contact with Sofia went very smoothly. The Blue Star government already had a mature factory, and with just a few adjustments, they could produce a large number of acid-resistant plastic sheets.

Upon receiving the plastic sheets, Sofia immediately began the assembly process.

She pieced together the plastic panels to form a semi-circular enclosed area on the ground, like a giant plastic greenhouse, completely enclosing the train.

To ensure the structure's stability, it was supported internally with stone and wood, forming a sturdy protective shield.

Once completed, Ivan led the effort to pile soil on top of the protective shield. Essentially, the entire train was buried in soil.

This layer of defense is rather weak, and Su Li doesn't know if it will even work.

Meanwhile, Zuli wasn't idle either. He used the tree sap that Ivan and his companions had collected to begin alchemical concoctions.

Su Li took out all the slime she had collected before, poured it into a large pot, added some catalyst, and began to mix it with magical energy.

After some manipulation, the tree sap and slime were mixed into a viscous, latex-like substance.

Su Li dipped her finger in it and felt its texture. "It should be able to effectively block acid rain."

Next, the team began to coat the entire train with this "latex paint." Due to a shortage of manpower, Zu Li could only choose a simple and crude method—pouring it directly from the roof and then spreading it evenly with tools.

Although a lot of materials were wasted, they couldn't afford to be frugal in this emergency.

The seventh day is a special day. If Zuli hadn't extended their exploration time, today should have been the day they left this world. However, various signs of disaster have appeared, and according to the system's settings, these disasters will definitely erupt before the seventh day. This is a "test" that the system has been preparing for a long time, and no one can escape it.

When Su Li and his team took action, it was already the early morning of the seventh day. Time was of the essence, so they could only try to ignore the details and make the preparations as thorough as possible.

Time continued until 6 p.m.

The sky had darkened, but this time the clouds were completely different from before; they were a dark green color.

The intensity of the wood-attribute force field in the air surged to unprecedented levels, and the wood element began to become rapidly active. The wood element bias in this world began to manifest.

In different worldviews, the element of wood has different meanings. For example, the element of wood that Sophia understands includes the attributes of wind and lightning.

The wood element in this world is primarily associated with nature, plants, growth, and reproduction.

Therefore, after the wood element became active, plants on the earth began to grow rapidly.

The fruits of many plants ripen and fall from their stems, and then quickly decompose.

Bird-like monsters roam the jungle, gathering nuts.

This resulted in a strong fruit wine smell emanating from the outside.

"It smells quite nice," Su Li sniffed. "But why aren't these seeds taking root and sprouting?"

Song Mingyu took out a handful of nuts and handed them to Su Li, saying, "Some have sprouted, but most of the seeds have evolved a mechanism that prevents them from sprouting when the strength of the wood elemental field exceeds a certain threshold."

"Hey, the wisdom of nature." Su Li smiled as she took the nuts, a flash of flame in her hand roasting them, then distributed them to the people resting nearby. "Here, have some, they're good for your brain."

After saying that, Su Li put a nut into his mouth. After taking a bite, a unique taste appeared in his mouth, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes. "Wow, my mouth feels numb."

"Ah, that's poisoning."

Su Li froze, looking at Song Mingyu with a hint of speechlessness.

Song Mingyu nonchalantly took out the same type of nuts, cracked open the shell, and ate them. "As long as your constitution is strong enough, even poison will just taste like a unique flavor to you. Don't worry, I've tested all these nuts."

"Okay." Su Li sighed, then ate another nut. This one was cool in her mouth, a bit like mint.

Sofia held the nuts but didn't eat them; instead, she listened intently to the sounds outside. After a long while, she suddenly said, "It's starting!"

Outside the 'shed' that Su Li and his team had set up, a strong wind was blowing.

To observe the outside world, Su Li and his team left several observation holes in the greenhouse. These holes weren't covered with soil; instead, they were filled with crystal materials, allowing them to see outside. Su Li observed the situation outside through these holes.

Outside, a fierce wind was howling; based on Su Li's experience, it should be a Force 6 gale. Sensing the magical energy, the intensity of the wood elemental field was surging.

Su Li glanced at the time; it was 7 o'clock.

Suddenly, Su Li felt a sharp pain between her eyebrows, her internal organs were convulsing, and the surrounding magical energy was becoming disordered.

Sun Keke, who was physically weaker, suddenly covered her mouth and vomited on the ground. Ivan quickly went to Sun Keke's side and patted her back to relieve the vomiting.

Outside, once the wood elemental force field exceeded a certain value, a somewhat disgusting green shockwave swept across the entire rainforest in an instant.

The magical storm has finally erupted.

A clap of thunder sounded in the dark green clouds in the sky, followed by a downpour of green rain.

The wind speed gradually increased, reaching a maximum of level 7. The gale howled, swirling up withered leaves and mud from the ground, slapping against the soil outside the 'greenhouse' with a "pat-pat" sound, and also carrying away the soil from the top of the 'greenhouse', allowing Su Li and the others to see some of the outside scenery through the transparent 'greenhouse' above.

At first, it was just a few scattered raindrops, making a soft "drip-drip" sound as they hit the "greenhouse." But soon, the rain intensified, and acid rain poured down from the sky like countless tiny arrows. The raindrops landed on the plastic greenhouse, splashing up tiny droplets and making a "pitter-patter" sound.

The sky was shrouded in thick green clouds, as if a giant green curtain had been pressed down. Even with the greenhouses blocking the view, the air was filled with a pungent, acidic smell, making people involuntarily frown.

Su Li and the others nervously watched the transparent greenhouse above them. After waiting for a long time and finding that the greenhouse showed no signs of dissolving, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, the acidity of the rainwater didn't break through the resistance of the acid-resistant plastic."

"This acid rain...it looks really scary," Sun Keke said softly, wiping her mouth.

Her gaze pierced through the greenhouse, looking out at the world.

Acid rain falling on the ground immediately triggered a violent reaction. The originally dry soil quickly became soft under the erosion of the acid rain, and a layer of white foam appeared on the surface, as if it had been boiled. Plants on the ground withered rapidly under the wash of acid rain, their stems turned black, and their bark released a large amount of heat after dehydration.

The heat accumulated, and some trees even emitted smoke.

With a loud bang, a flame shot up from the tree, and then ignited the entire tree that had been corroded by the acid.
