"This is the Mutual Aid Society's Support Team No. 0, the Pangu Mech."
"With approval, we hereby issue a stern warning to the terrorist group led by Wilford on the train: immediately halt train operations, release all hostages, cease resistance, and surrender!"
Wei Chang's voice boomed like thunder through the mecha's Horn. With a casual press of a button, the mecha's program automatically translated his words into various languages and played them in turn...
At this moment, the passengers in business class finally saw the Pangu approaching them!
A colossal figure pierced through the wind, snow, and mist, its entire body covered in golden-red armor, its bright red eyes gazing down at them as if they were the gaze of an ancient god.
Even the swirling snow and wind could not stop the spread of fear.
Instinctively, almost everyone screamed in fright at the Pangu, a "monster" they had never seen before.
They wouldn't listen to anything Wei Chang said.
"What is that?!"
"Is it the legendary wild man from the snow-capped mountains?"
"Help..."
Click click click!
The train is still running.
The mech stood to one side of the train, silently watching its winding body glide across the tracks, without making any move to attack or obstruct it.
This also made it clearly visible to almost all passengers.
The passengers at the front of the train moved away from the Pangu, but soon after, the crew members saw him.
Wei Chang could see pairs of eyes covered in panic, surprise, astonishment... seemingly encompassing every emotion, pasted onto the car window.
Then soon it was back to the last carriage, completely enclosed.
The three Wei Chang brothers knew that the hostages were inside.
So he remained calm, simply continuing to play the voice message urging surrender.
He strode after them at a leisurely pace, keeping the surrender-persuasion voice message on.
To avoid affecting train operations, Wei Chang even thoughtfully maintained a sufficient distance from the tracks.
Therefore, passengers on the train could only feel a slight tremor.
Otherwise, given the Pangu's basic weight of 4,765 tons, plus the additional equipment added later, which would weigh at least 5,000 tons, even a slight proximity could cause the tracks to misalign.
The train passengers had no idea of Wei Chang's tenderness; otherwise, they probably would have cried their eyes out.
But they're practically crying their eyes out right now.
"That
What is that?!
Are we still on Earth?
"It's still chasing us!"
" Wilford!"
People pressed their eyes against the windows, and some even removed the glass, braving the cold wind and snow to stick their heads out and continuously report the mechs' movements.
The sounds from outside also came in clearly:
"... Stop the train immediately, release all hostages, surrender and disembark!"
He wants us to stop the car!
" Wilford, why aren't you stopping the car yet!"
Where are the Wilford?
" Wilford!"
Despite everyone's calls, Wilford still hadn't appeared; he seemed completely unaware of what was happening outside.
But everyone knows, he definitely knows, he's just pretending not to.
He also knew that everyone knew he was just pretending not to know...
So the business class passengers could no longer bear it. With the massive mech relentlessly pursuing them, its colossal form seemed capable of sending the train flying with a single kick...
Everyone rushed to carriage number two again, crossed the narrow iron bridge, and crowded onto the small platform in front of carriage number one, where they began crying and banging on the door once more.
But they didn't know that Wilford wasn't in the first carriage.
He was alone in the technical department's carriage.
be terribly upset.
He saw it too when the train and the mecha passed each other.
The enormous body he had never seen before, and the words it uttered, convinced Wilford that this was the "measure" taken by the Mutual Aid Society!
What merit or ability does he possess!
So what if they robbed a little over a thousand people?
Why has this attracted the attention of such a cross-temporal and spatial organization?
Having just learned about the situation outside, I knew it would be terrible. Morgan and his men were probably still alive, and they would definitely seek revenge.
He even suspected that the police and soldiers encountered on the train earlier were Morgan's doing.
But he didn't expect to be pursued by the Mutual Aid Society so quickly.
He has no grudge against this organization!
While Wilford could still manage to deal with Morgan and his men, the hostages on the train meant that Morgan and Mather couldn't use overt methods against him.
So as long as he continues to threaten Morgan and his cronies with the truth about the Doomsday Cooling Plan, they won't dare to do anything to him, at least not in the short term.
You can also use this time to make plans with peace of mind.
But there's really no other way around it with Mutual Aid Society!
They sent such a huge thing over; it looks like they're going to pick up his Snowpiercer like a caterpillar...
There's no other way!
"Time!"
I need time!
Wilford stood up from the floor.
He glanced at the technical carriage, where rows of workstations resembled iron cages. There was no one there; they must have all gone to the front to watch the excitement.
Wilford knew there must be a lot of people blocking the door to his carriage.
Those operators might soon bring the passengers back.
So he immediately used his authority to lock all the carriage doors.
Unless forcibly destroyed, no one, regardless of their authority, can open any of the doors.
In this way, he was the only person left in the carriage.
Afterward, he sat back down and opened the train's operating system.
Choose to increase the engine's power.
This operation will only have one result--
"Speed up! Speed up!! Speed up!!!"
Click click click click click!
Outside, the train wheels rotate at an increased speed.
The speeding train kicked up snowflakes, instantly widening the distance between itself and the Pangu.
The passengers screamed.
They were surprised that the train not only didn't slow down, but actually accelerated.
At the operator's prompting, they tried to turn around, only to find that the carriage door, which had closed automatically, could not be opened again.
Even with Claude's authority, it's not possible.
They were trapped inside one of the train carriages.
Crew carriage.
Namgoong Minsu was already taking action. He had clearly heard what the mecha said and knew that the mecha outside was there to rescue people, which would allow him and his wife to leave the train.
Then Wilford forcibly locked the car doors.
He knew it was time for him to shine.
He took out his tools and prepared to rush forward and open the door to the front of the carriage.
His wife suddenly grabbed him:
"There are still thousands of people in the back carriages, and those people hate Wilford to the core!"
Namgoong Minsu immediately understood what she meant.
"Right!"
We need their help!
"Otherwise, Wilford would easily outmaneuver those bastards in the front carriages!"
