Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Time slowly passed by.

Lisette equipped the gloves named Black Strings.

This did not occupy any of her three mechanical equipment slots mentioned in her introduction.

Because this item was worn on the hands, not stored in space.

It didn't take long before Lisette had already mastered control of this item.

Meanwhile, Eve and the Raven demon he had sent out spent several hours completely clearing out this Phoenix Auspice Hotel.

In the literal sense of clearing through.

Through the huge hole blasted in the ceiling by Eve's pulse laser cannon.

The blood-red sky above had quietly climbed with a crimson full moon.

"Huff..."

In Ye Qiyan's hand were three 1-hour docking time cards obtained from An Yuankui's train.

Yes, these things had physical form.

Different from the 【1-hour Train Docking Time (Tradable)】 that Ye Qiyan had obtained before.

This thing was a card.

Which meant...

It could be sublimated.

"Just two more hours needed to reach twenty-four hours total, but after sublimating this thing... what will happen?"

The sublimation was completely unknown.

Ye Qiyan didn't know what changes would occur to the card in his hand after passing through his ability.

It was possible that after sublimation, the original docking time might disappear, replaced by other powers.

But...

How would he know without trying?

Just two more hours needed.

Level Seven Platforms no longer posed any threat to him, so he couldn't obtain more powerful rewards.

Although Ye Qiyan now seemed to possess considerable power...

But...

The battle he witnessed earlier in the city between Zhao Xi and that golden Order Card owner remained vivid in his mind.

Although he had some trump cards...

Whether it was the Hunt-Patrol Mech-Dragon's Transcend Mode, Red Tears' Tear-Engraving Sword, or the ultimate Blasphemy Card, plus Eve's Overdrive Star.

All of these were already unimaginably powerful for ordinary Train Conductors, enough to make people jealous.

But it wasn't enough, far from enough.

Spirit, stamina, modules, magic potions, train armaments, everything...

No matter what it was, he needed to keep moving forward to obtain it.

If Levels One to Four Platforms were hell for novice Train Conductors, then Levels Five to Seven were the corridors where most Train Conductors lingered.

And above Level Eight?

Only those who forged futures, who forever advanced forward.

Would have the opportunity to enter there.

The Train Conductors encountered there wouldn't be as weak as those he met before.

"So, that's how it is..."

Ye Qiyan felt like he had glimpsed a small truth about this survival world.

"Can't stop... always move forward..."

"Huff..."

Deep breath.

Three one-hour docking time cards were evenly arranged on the table before him.

Try it, failure didn't matter.

Even if time wasn't enough.

He could still buy more.

And he could afford it.

Even though he had only been in this world for about a month.

His fingertips tapped on the wooden table making clicking sounds.

He closed his eyes.

His right index finger gently pressed on the middle card.

Then...

Begin sublimation~

Sapphire blue light flowed along his fingertip into that card.

So quiet—

Tick, tock—

Lisette silently walked closer, weapons of varying lengths representing hours, minutes, and seconds formed a clock-like existence behind her.

Time, was flowing—

Red Tears, who was staying not far away, also seemed to sense something, as the Tear-Engraving Sword was drawn, projections of ancient battlefields spreading outward around her.

Time—

Was flowing.

No retreat, no cycles, always forward, forging into the unknown—

Tick— tock—

He could hear clearly now, it was the sound coming from the 【Forever Accurate Pocket Watch】 existing on Ye Qiyan's chest.

"..."

Who was whispering?

Something, was watching?

Bewitchment and Arrogance automatically emerged from the Void Card Repository.

That gaze, that whispering, seemed unable to find their target, filled with confusion.

And in the end.

Dark golden light slowly emerged from Ye Qiyan's chest.

The Anchor hung above his head.

On the dark golden Blasphemy Card, the anchor-holding figure slowly raised the ship's anchor.

The existence that had been watching seemed to feel some kind of fear and immediately disappeared.

Everything returned to tranquility.

For who knows how long.

As if something had shattered.

"Whew! Hah..."

Like the first breath of someone who had been suffocating for a long time after reaching shore.

Ye Qiyan clutched his rapidly beating heart, his face full of confusion.

"What the hell? What was that just now?"

This was the second time he had experienced a sublimation completely beyond his control.

The first time was when sublimating his talent itself, that time was even more intense, to the point that if not for the train system's existence, he would have been forever trapped on that Slaughter Platform.

Now, he was just sublimating a train docking time card, so why?

Right, the card?

Ye Qiyan's eyes lowered, looking at the card before him that had transformed into an eerie blue color, reflecting gorgeous radiance.

【24-hour Docking Time Card】

【After use, your train docking time will increase to 24 hours.】

【？？？】

【Note: Who is watching? Who is whispering? Time, this world, everything, is moving forward!!】

"？？？"

Ye Qiyan thought he had misread.

What the hell is this?

Huh?

Directly increases docking time to 24 hours?

Meaning even a novice using this card could jump from the initial three-hour docking time straight to 24 hours?

Isn't this too?

Ridiculous? Abstract? Powerful?

Perhaps "bizarre" would be the most appropriate description.

"Lisette? Red Tears?"

Only then did Ye Qiyan notice that Lisette and Red Tears had somehow appeared beside him.

Both had even drawn their weapons, yet not in the tense confrontation like when they first met, but rather... guarding against something?

Not only that.

Bewitchment and Arrogance.

His two Demon Cards.

Had also somehow left the Void Card Repository and were floating beside him.

Even the Wandering Star Holy Sigil showed signs of having been activated.

Most importantly.

The Anchor?

It was quietly standing before Ye Qiyan.

Had something tried to attack him during his sublimation?

"Just now? Damn, what time is it already?"

Ye Qiyan took out his pocket watch to check the time.

Four o'clock.

Hmm, 4:00 AM.

Less than four hours remaining until docking time ended.

How was this possible?

He clearly remembered that time was still early before he started sublimating.

Could it be that, like when sublimating his own talent, he had passed out?

That didn't make sense.

This docking time increase card was actually this special?

Ye Qiyan turned his gaze back to the table before him.

Apart from the middle card that had completed sublimation, the remaining two had inexplicably become paler and grayer than before.

【One-hour Train Docking Time】

The description hadn't changed but Ye Qiyan could clearly perceive that the potential of these two cards had vanished.

Not absent, but vanished.

Exactly like the feeling when he used Major Consumption Reduction to drain "everything" from space.

"Was it because of... time?"
