Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!
Chapter 120: NPC in Qin Qiang's Eyes"Suoluo City Tribunal, oh, oh I see, it's actually a distinguished person from there... My apologies, my apologies."
Qin Qiang's imposing demeanor instantly diminished considerably.
Clearly he was aware of the Tribunal's existence, even somewhat fearful of it.
He stopped inquiring about Ye Qiyan's information, awkwardly chuckled a few times, then retreated to the back of the group.
By the time the knight squad dispatched by Princess Winnie escorted the two into the fortress, Qin Qiang still maintained a certain distance from Ye Qiyan.
Ye Qiyan was also pleased to be left undisturbed. He hadn't intended to use his status to pressure others, but this Qin Qiang fellow asked too many questions and was somewhat annoying.
Under the knight squad's escort, the two saw the fortress called Casmafa from front to back.
Human and goblin corpses could be seen everywhere.
On the shattered city wall, a massive fist imprint was firmly embedded.
Ye Qiyan stopped here, looking at the giant fist imprint as he asked the knight beside him.
"Sir, this was caused by that goblin champion. It was the one that breached the city wall."
Goblin champion - one of the two Level 7 monsters.
This level of destructive power was nearly comparable to a single strike from the Thunderbolt Anchor Throw.
Qin Qiang at the rear of the group also heard the knight's words. His expression turned somewhat unpleasant, and after hesitating for a moment, he looked at Ye Qiyan's back and jogged to catch up.
"S-sir, Judge sir."
Ye Qiyan turned with a puzzled expression at the sound.
"You're calling me?"
"Yes, Judge sir, could we speak in private for a moment?"
Ye Qiyan didn't refuse. In fact, he was somewhat curious about what this guy wanted to say.
Having the knights wait where they were, the two moved to a relatively quiet location.
The determination that was initially on Qin Qiang's face was gone, replaced by an extremely obsequious expression.
"Sir, this station is somewhat too dangerous. I know that as a member of Suoluo City's Tribunal, you wouldn't fear such danger, but, hehe... as the saying goes, a wise man doesn't stand under a dangerous wall. You've seen that attack on the wall. If that goblin is truly that strong, I'm afraid..."
"What exactly do you want to say? Speak directly."
Ye Qiyan interrupted Qin Qiang's words.
"I want to abandon this station."
He quickly added.
"Of course, not right now! Believe me, I've been to many similar stations. These useless natives are no match for the monsters in the station. Without our appearance, they'll eventually be killed by those two goblins. There are many good things here worth bringing back to the train."
"Once we enter the fortress, I'll find a way to let these NPCs die at the hands of the goblins. We just need to collect precious resources in the city. There's completely no need to risk ourselves for these NPC natives. When the docking time ends, we just return to the train and leave. What do you think?"
In a certain sense, Qin Qiang's plan wasn't bad. The train coins were already obtained, and no one could force them to complete the task of killing those two goblins.
Wait until the time ended, return to the train, everything as if it never happened.
Apart from the gains picked up in the city, it was basically a guaranteed profit without loss.
Ye Qiyan's eyebrows raised slightly, not expecting this guy to have such thoughts.
This kind of person could also reach Level 7?
No, perhaps it was precisely this kind of person who found it easier to reach Level 7.
"How many years have you been in this world?"
The unexpected question left Qin Qiang somewhat confused. He tentatively answered:
"Six years. I came to this world six years ago. Why do you ask?"
Six years to reach Level 7.
Perhaps this was the normal growth speed for ordinary train conductors in this world.
"Nothing."
Without saying anything more, Ye Qiyan turned and walked toward the knight squad. Halfway there, he suddenly said:
"I'm going to kill the goblins. Since you're unwilling to participate in this matter, then the 40 train coins won't need to be shared with you, right?"
"Uh... of course."
Qin Qiang responded with some heartache.
"Mm, since that's the case, you can collect precious resources in this city. I'll handle those two goblins alone."
As he said this, the corner of his mouth curled into a faint smile.
"You can stay in this fortress to collect resources, but I want two-thirds of the resources you collect during this time. If you don't agree..."
Black Ebony had somehow appeared in his hand.
The dark gun barrel pointed at Qin Qiang's head.
"You're welcome to try."
Qin Qiang was so frightened his legs went weak.
"Okay, okay, two-thirds! Completely acceptable. But, I have a small request I'd like you to agree to."
"What is it?"
"I want that female NPC called Winnie to be my slave. What do you think, is that possible?"
Slave?
Such an unfamiliar term.
Ye Qiyan's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Uh, literal meaning. That princess NPC will probably die here without us anyway. Might as well come with me. Heh, if sir wants her instead..."
Ye Qiyan stopped him from continuing.
NPC, slave...
From Qin Qiang's words, it wasn't hard to hear what this guy thought of the natives in the station world.
And his interest in Princess Winnie was most likely due to that special morale boost that affected the spirit.
He didn't say anything, just returned to the knights and continued toward the destination.
Qin Qiang followed behind, true to his word, not leaving immediately.
Instead, he pulled out a green snakeskin bag from somewhere and collected items everywhere throughout the fortress.
Precious metals, relatively intact weapons, food...
The snakeskin bag kept being stuffed with various items until it bulged round, but the bag didn't tear. On the contrary, even when loading items larger than itself, the bag just expanded a bit more.
Clearly, this bag was a storage-type item.
"Sir, your friend here he..."
One knight couldn't bear to watch anymore.
Qin Qiang's actions were too abstract.
This guy would even snatch food from children's hands. Whatever he wanted, no matter who had it, he would strip it away to take with him.
He truly treated the people in the station world as fake NPCs.
"We're almost there, right?"
The knight nodded.
Raising his sword, he pointed forward.
A battlefield of flying flesh and blood existed right there.
And the so-called flying flesh and blood wasn't a fifty-fifty meat grinder situation between humans and goblins, but rather a one-sided slaughter under the assault of a tall, black goblin wearing special leather armor.
Their arrival was noticed by the black goblin, who grinned, its teeth covered in flesh residue. With a casual swing of its massive fist, it smashed the head of a fully armored knight.
"He, he is the goblin champion! How could this be? This place has already fallen?!"
