Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Today's weather: Solar Flare Wind. External temperature: 50°C.

Time: [10:34:11]

Ye Qiyan awoke from his sleep, patted his cheeks, and skillfully opened his personal information panel.

His stamina and spirit had fully recovered after a night's rest.

Both being at maximum values meant he could perform another sublimation.

Moreover, he had quite a few things to sublimate today.

"What's the situation outside?"

While skillfully preparing his breakfast, he looked through the window to see the Endless Wasteland dyed in a layer of dark red.

Fierce winds swept across the landscape, and the monsters that usually chased trains had all disappeared.

The Sunny Doll he had moved over earlier informed him of today's weather.

Ye Qiyan's mouth twitched several times. After hesitating for a moment, he walked to the door leading to the locomotive and pushed it open a crack. A wave of intense heat instantly rushed in, only to be forcefully isolated the moment it entered this carriage, maintaining the interior temperature unchanged.

He tentatively extended one hand into the locomotive area.

The vicious burning sensation made him quickly withdraw it.

"At this temperature, if we reach the next station... that would be somewhat terrifying."

He was fine personally - the climate-controlled carriage made him completely indifferent to these temperature extremes. Even the cultivation carriage and honeycomb carriage behind had their own temperature regulation functions, though they consumed more basic resources, which he could afford.

But what about others?

Pulling up the light screen, he saw few people speaking in the public chat room.

However, it wasn't difficult to understand the reason from the current chat content.

["So hot... I'm going to die..."]

["Water poured on my body dries up in moments. The carriage is still okay - soaking in water lets me barely survive. But what should I do when we reach the station? Can I really not disembark? Missing one station would mean falling behind others, not to mention the guild missions..."]

["Go to the city's trading platform to buy some cooling items. Not getting off definitely isn't an option. Our guild has set quotas too - if we don't go down to collect resources, who knows when we'll be able to upgrade our train to level four?"]

["Heh, those guys definitely got the news early. Damn it, all the temperature-reducing items have increased in price! Damn! A bunch of profiteering scoundrels!"]

Items like the Sunny Doll that could predict weather in advance certainly weren't exclusive to Ye Qiyan alone, so this situation wasn't surprising.

Entering the next station with such weather meant that for many people, not disembarking might be the best option.

Temporarily putting this matter aside, he looked at the other reward he obtained from yesterday's level 8 treasure chest.

Mechanical Construct Reinforcement Core.

Used to perform a comprehensive performance enhancement on mechanical constructs.

This core would be used on WALL-E.

Snapping his fingers, he reached out and touched it, beginning the sublimation.

[Stamina: 140→100]

[Mechanical Construct Reinforcement Core → Extreme·Mechanical Life Core]

[Extreme·Mechanical Life Core]

[Use on mechanical constructs below level 8 to transform them into complete mechanical lifeforms and perform a comprehensive structural enhancement]

In Ye Qiyan's hand, the original reinforcement core disappeared, replaced by a constantly pulsating mechanical heart that, despite being composed of mechanical parts and metal, felt strangely soft.

Mechanical lifeform?

Ye Qiyan's eyes flickered with light as he looked ahead at WALL-E, who was cleaning the carriage.

"WALL-E, come here."

The little robot obediently approached. The moment it saw the mechanical heart in Ye Qiyan's hand, the smart chip that gave it emotions suddenly experienced a never-before-felt emotion.

That emotion was called desire.

"Do you want it?"

WALL-E nodded repeatedly.

"Then it's yours."

Without teasing it, Ye Qiyan directly placed the mechanical life core on WALL-E's blocky body.

The core emitted dazzling radiance, filling the entire carriage with light. Ye Qiyan instinctively closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the core had disappeared.

And WALL-E...

"WALL-E?"

The small blocky robot waved its mechanical arms, habitually spinning around happily as usual.

It was still the same WALL-E. The mechanical life core didn't seem to have brought any changes to it.

Ye Qiyan gently patted its head.

The system's identification screen promptly appeared.

[GT-1 Treasure Hunting Robot: WALL-E]

[Permanently bound to Train Conductor E-3-1102, cannot have control/ownership/loyalty taken away]

[Race: Mechanical Lifeform]

[Talent: Treasure Seeker: Search for the most valuable item in any station. During this process, cannot be observed by any existence other than its master, Train Conductor Ye Qiyan]

[Modules: Housekeeping/Basic Cooking/Garbage Collector/Emotion]

[The Mechanical Life Core provides unlimited energy, but it still enjoys charging.]

[Hobbies: Being praised by its master, and charging.]

"Little guy, you've done well. Go charge now."

Although unsure what it had done well, WALL-E still happily spun around.

This upgrade had been quite successful.

First, the one Train Coin required each time for the station treasure hunting function was no longer needed.

Second, WALL-E no longer needed daily charging - the mechanical life core could provide all its energy requirements.

And most importantly.

WALL-E couldn't be observed by anyone other than him during its treasure hunting process in stations!

This meant that no matter how dangerous a station might be, even if he couldn't disembark himself, simply sending WALL-E out would guarantee some harvest and its safe return!

Incredible!

This mechanical life core was practically a divine artifact!

If he had another one of these and used it on the Sentinel Guard... how powerful would it become?

Ye Qiyan silently noted this item in his mind - if he encountered it in the future, he couldn't miss it.

The only pity was that this item could only be used on mechanical constructs below level 8. The Hunt-Patrol Mech-Dragon obviously didn't qualify, otherwise this item could have solved the mech-dragon's energy problems too.

Watching WALL-E happily run to its dedicated generator to charge, a smile unconsciously appeared on Ye Qiyan's face.

Having completed the first sublimation, the day wasn't over yet.

Ye Qiyan hadn't forgotten what he needed to do today.

The Train.

He needed to upgrade the Train from level 6 to level 7.

"Right now, I have 132 Train Coins total... oh right, plus the 5 from the Great Dragon's treasure, that makes 137. That should be enough to purchase all the upgrade options."

Ye Qiyan muttered to himself, suddenly feeling like he had said similar words before.

Silently looking at the pile of Train Coins before him, he had a feeling he would soon be poor again.
