The train shook violently, and the source of the vibration came from the carriage at the back. The Secret Service agents barely managed to stand still. They quickly looked out of the window and were shocked.
Under the night sky, a huge black worm was entangled in the back of the carriage, circling around it again and again. Its body was dozens of meters long, and the surface of its body was pitch-black chitin shell. It was shiny and reflected the moonlight, looking sinister and strange. The worm's head was the mouth of the worm, and circles of sharp teeth went deep into its throat. At that moment, this giant worm was chewing on the iron shell of the carriage, tearing a hole in it. A field agent was swallowed by it in one gulp, and his scream lasted for only a short while before he was crushed into minced meat by the mouth of sharp teeth.
Han Xiao shuddered, and the bold idea that just came to him suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Qi Bai Jia's expression changed. "Black Earth Worm!"
Han Xiao took out the Berserk Eagle from behind his waist and fired a shot at the black worm. He then looked at the combat information on the interface and immediately felt his lower body tighten.

Even a beast is luckier than me. Who can I reason with?
"Fire!"
The Secret Service agents all pulled out their pistols and fired back. The gunshots were deafening, and the bullets bounced off the thick carapace of the Black Earth Worm, but they did not cause much damage.
Blue Star's wilderness was extremely dangerous. All kinds of ferocious beasts ran amok. In history, there were many tragedies of beasts massacring cities. Humans relied on the power of collective intelligence to barely climb to the top of the food chain.
The Black Earth Worm had a long lifespan, and its body length continued to increase with age. It was originally a gentle creature that lived in the dark. It usually slept underground and rarely moved, unless it was awakened by a huge vibration from the ground above its head.
Everyone immediately understood that the passing train must have woken up the giant black worm.
In order to avoid encountering wild beasts, every railway was specially equipped with maintenance personnel. Every once in a while, they would use all kinds of equipment to check the road conditions, including underground life detectors that could detect Black Earthworms. If this Black Earthworm did not arrive after the previous check, then the maintenance personnel were just being lazy.
The field agents who were treated as prey panicked and pulled out their pistols to fight back. However, the small caliber of the pistols was not even enough to tickle the Black Earth Worm, which had more than 100 defense points.
All the bombs and high-powered firearms were placed in the storage compartment, and the compartment that was attacked by the Black Earth Worm was right in the middle. The agents could not get their hands on the weapons, and the situation was very dangerous.
The situation was chaotic. The wind swept through the compartment, and some of the debris was thrown out of the hole and into the wind by the high-speed train. The train was tilted at a 15-degree angle, and the friction between the chassis and the track was ear-piercing. A series of sparks flew, and it looked like it would be overturned by the Black Earth Worm's huge weight at any time.
"Get out of the way!" Li Ya Lin shouted and jumped up. She pulled out her retractable saber and slashed at the Black Earth Worm's shell with a bright yellow flame aura. Crack! A clear crack appeared on the worm's shell.
It worked!
Pugilists were able to maximize the destructive power of their energy. Their punches and kicks had great strength, and in this situation, it was actually very useful.
Di Su Su's eyes flashed, and she followed closely behind. She also pulled out her retractable knife, and a green flame covered the blade. Her speed was like lightning, and she slashed a small piece of the carapace with great force, leaving a faint green afterimage in everyone's vision.
The Black Earth Worm did not care about the two of them. Relying on its thick carapace, it had a calm expression that said, "You can do whatever you want, it will be my loss if I move even a little bit." It tightened its body at a certain angle, and the compartment gradually changed shape. The Blue Star Beast was very strong, and its various Molding Abilities made it very resistant to attacks. The Black Earth Worm was obviously a wild boss-level monster, and without the firepower of a modern armed army, it would be very difficult to kill it. Even for players, the Black Earth Worm was a monster that at least five to ten people of the same level could challenge. Of course, there were some professional players who could solo-kill it.
Crunch, crunch, crunch. Another two pieces of delicious human-shaped bread were swallowed by the Black Earth Worm. This kind of delicious food was much better than the sandworms underground. The Black Earth Worm ground its teeth together, as if it was savoring this rare and fresh delicacy.
The people in the field felt their hair stand on end. The pressure from the top of the food chain made them almost lose their balance. It was as if in this situation, humans had been stripped of their pride of wisdom and had become frightened lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
"Fire, the Black Earth Worm is afraid of fire!" Di Su Su shouted.
The Black Earth Worm's eyesight had deteriorated, and it was very sensitive to fire and high temperature. It was like the effect of a flash bomb on humans, which would damage the Black Earth Worm's eyesight.
If the stalemate continued, the train would be destroyed. Everyone realized this and immediately understood that the only choice was to use fire to force the Black Earth Worm back. Zhang Wei quickly took out the high-explosive bullets that he carried with him and reloaded them. The high-explosive bullets were special bullets, and the agents usually used regular bullets.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In an instant, the Black Earth Worm's impenetrable shell lit up with majestic flames from the Big FFF Group. The Black Earth Worm, which had been very calm, suddenly started twisting its body crazily. The flames and the high temperature made it extremely uncomfortable, and it became very irritable. It was like a baboon that had failed to mate.
Han Xiao stood firmly like a nail. The increasing shaking made him worry that the train would flip over. Basically, all the secret service agents had bought his high-explosive bullets before. This kind of situation could be left to the secret service agents of Division 13 to deal with, and he was happy to be a bystander.
Bundles of flames appeared on the Black Earth Worm's body. Not long after, the Black Earth Worm could not stand the blinding light anymore. It screamed, let go of the carriage, and turned to burrow into the ground. Sand and soil flew everywhere, and within a few seconds, its ten-meter-long body had burrowed into the ground. Its speed was extremely fast, and only a layer of soil was left to cover the hole it had dug.
The field agents who had just escaped death felt their legs go weak, and they all fell to the ground with lingering fear.
"We're saved!"
"I'm not dead yet, I'm not dead yet …"
"Mom, I miss you so much!"
The Black Earth Worm had only appeared for a few minutes, but it had already caused a lot of damage. The carriage was in tatters, and if they had not gotten rid of it in time, the carriage would have been destroyed. They might not have died, but they would definitely have been late.
Fortunately, there were high-explosive bullets … Everyone looked at Han Xiao and felt a sense of gratitude.
Zhang Wei patted Han Xiao's shoulder. He felt that it was a good feeling to not have to say anything.
"If you want to thank me, just say it. I can't read your mind."
"…"
Everyone was speechless.
Your ability to destroy the atmosphere is at the expert level.
The field agents rested for a while and got up to clean up the mess.
The attack of the Black Earth Worm was just a small episode. The military railway route was relatively safe, and only this accident had happened.
The scenery along the way was mostly mountains, forests, and plains. After a while, it was easy to get tired of looking at it.
Along the way, Han Xiao stayed in the big black carriage and practiced the Energy Extraction Technique and built machines to gain experience.
Three days later, the train arrived at the Hesla border station.
