Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

The task of preparing food was handed over to Lisette.

There wasn't much time left before arriving at the next station, so they made a pot of fish soup using fish caught on Terte Island, along with rice cooked from the Infinite Rice Bag.

The ingredients were simple, but it could definitely be considered a delicious feast.

Time.

[12:30:00]

The time had come.

Putting down the spoon, a light screen appeared before his eyes, and the module manifested.

[Crossroads of Fate triggered.]

[Please choose your twenty-second station from the following platforms]

[2: Phoenix Auspice Hotel (Level 7 Multiplayer Competition Platform)]

Huh?

Multiplayer competition?

This was the first time this type of platform had appeared.

Ye Qiyan had absolutely no interest in the escape platform of option one, but as for the second one, even though it was Level 7, if it involved competing with other Train Conductors, he might be able to get something from them.

"I choose platform two, Phoenix Auspice Hotel."

[Platform selection completed.]

[The twenty-second station you are about to arrive at is...]

[Phoenix Auspice Hotel.]

[Please remain seated and hold on tight, the train will be arriving at the station soon~]

He ate the last grain of rice in his bowl and drank the last mouthful of fish soup.

He took a White Forest Fruit handed to him by WALL-E and took a bite.

Half an hour later, emptiness manifested ahead.

The train's tracks stretched endlessly.

They were about to arrive at the new platform.

Time.

[13:00:00]

A bloody setting sun hung over the mountain peak.

The entire world was shrouded in a strange layer of blood red.

Outside the train windows.

There was complete silence.

This was an abandoned platform.

Here, many corpses that had long turned into white bones could be seen.

[Current Platform: Phoenix Auspice Hotel]

[Remaining Docking Countdown: 18:59:59]

[Good Luck]

[This station: ...Slightly dangerous?]

Slightly dangerous?

Why does the system's judgment feel so hesitant?

Does this mean there's something, or someone with an item, that could be somewhat useful?

"WALL-E."

The little robot, already prepared, stood at its dedicated door.

It curved its eyes and happily waved its arms.

"This time, I'm counting on you again~ Stay safe."

The little robot~ was overjoyed.

It was about to start treasure hunting again.

"As for what's next..."

Ye Qiyan looked around.

Lisette stood silently in the corner without saying a word, while Eve stayed on the roof, vigilantly scanning the surroundings but detected no danger.

"Eve."

Last time at Suoluo City, he never had the chance to let Eve out. This time, he could conveniently take her along for adventure.

"Lisette, I leave the train to you."

Someone had to watch the train after all.

Especially since there would be other Train Conductors competing with him here.

To be honest, he could just store the train directly into the matrix.

However, after WALL-E found treasure chests, it would return to this location.

If it couldn't find the train then, it would lose its unobservable mode due to exiting the treasure hunting state.

That would be dangerous.

Moreover.

If he stored the train away at a platform like this, and its Anchor wanted to navigate, it could only travel to other station worlds where anchor points remained.

Lisette smiled and nodded slightly.

She silently walked to the spot where Ye Qiyan had just been sitting and eating, placed her hands overlapping on her lap, and closed her eyes.

Ye Qiyan also shared the Illusory Surveillant's permissions with her to ensure everything was foolproof.

Preparations complete, carrying his increasingly lightweight backpack, Ye Qiyan walked out of the train with Eve.

Open door, close door.

First, he checked the white bones scattered around the area.

After finding nothing particularly noteworthy.

He looked at the coordinates on the sand table through the Illusory Surveillant.

The coordinates weren't too far from where the train was docked.

Even without using the Road Tyrant, it would only be about a ten-minute walk.

This platform had one and only one visible building.

Without a doubt, that was the Phoenix Auspice Hotel.

So, what were they competing for?

And where were the other Train Conductors competing with him docked?

"Let's go, Eve."

Mounting the Road Tyrant, with Eve in tow, they advanced at full speed and quickly arrived right in front of the hotel.

From a distance earlier, he hadn't paid much attention.

But up close, why did this hotel's shape so closely resemble...

"A coffin?"

Under the blood-red sky, a building resembling a coffin stood upon this black earth.

"Phoenix Auspice Hotel..."

On the dark red sign, it seemed as if something was watching.

"Playing the eerie game again, fine then, maybe I can get something to increase the Pure Cleansing Stone's potential."

He took out the Pure Cleansing Stone and, with Eve, pushed open the hotel's main door.

Inside, it was dead quiet.

But brightly lit.

"Huh?"

At the front desk stood a person whose gender was indistinguishable.

Ye Qiyan silently placed his hand in his pocket, gripping the Pure Cleansing Stone, ready to act at any moment.

As he approached the front desk, before he could even speak, he heard the other person say:

"Hello, respected Train Conductor, welcome to Phoenix Auspice Hotel. May I ask if you would like to check in?"

They know about Train Conductors? That's interesting...

In all the station worlds Ye Qiyan had experienced, among the natives who knew about the existence of Train Conductors, most were in places where Train Conductors had already come here and done something that affected this station world.

Check in?

He looked around.

Didn't see anyone else.

Within Eve's alert range, no presence of any danger was detected.

Whether monsters or souls, if they existed, Eve couldn't possibly fail to find them.

So then...

"Of course, I'd like to check in for one day."

The gender-indistinguishable front desk clerk grinned, leaned over, and pulled out a wooden sign.

On it, written in blood-red characters, were four price tiers.

[Low-class Suite: 10 Train Coins per day]

[Mid-class Suite: 20] [High-class: 30] [Top-class Suite: 50]

So expensive?

What's the difference between these suites?

Ye Qiyan's brow furrowed slightly as Bewitchment spun quietly at his fingertip.

"What are the differences between these rooms?"

"The prices are different~"

"Has anyone else been here?"

"Two other Train Conductors have already checked in."

"What if I don't have any money?"

The front desk clerk maintained their smile, then pulled out another wooden board.

[Storage Suite: Free of charge.]

Ye Qiyan didn't make a choice immediately, but instead said:

"Can you show me the rooms?"

"I'd like to take a look myself."

"Naturally, you may~"

The front desk clerk came out and led Ye Qiyan to an elevator.

When the elevator opened, inside was written a large character: "Longevity."

Moreover, the moment the door opened, Eve's gun barrel pointed towards the top of the elevator.

There, coiled a massive long-tongued woman.

"Please enter."

The front desk clerk said thus.

Ye Qiyan stood at the elevator door, entered with Eve, and then.

Pulled out the Pure Cleansing Stone.

Brilliant light erupted.
