Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Chapter 271: The Cube in the Sealed Box

Upon careful consideration, it really does seem quite similar.

Once a day, undergoing trials, at 1 PM sharp, and having to travel to different coordinate locations, with the outside world being a desert that strongly resembles the wasteland.

Isn't this just imitating the wasteland in another form?

"This is really an interesting station, what do you think, Lisette?"

Lisette, who was directing the goshawk and that little bear cub to drag the two halves of the shark-man's corpse, tilted her head.

"Mmm~"

Alright, asking her was pointless.

Any place Ye Qiyan found interesting, she would feel the same way.

As the trial ended, those humanoid phantom figures in the spectator stands gradually disappeared.

"Next session starts tomorrow at 1 PM~ There's still plenty of time. In that case..."

Perform sublimation?

No.

There was something he had wanted to do for a long time.

Finally, it was time to give it a try.

"It's time to undo that seal."

"If it's here..."

Ye Qiyan snapped his fingers.

Arrogance and Bewitchment appeared simultaneously, both hovering beside him and beginning to rotate.

"And you two."

The twin Ravens of Misfortune manifested together.

Gluttony, who had been sleeping in the digestion carriage, was also summoned and transformed into the headless goblin apostle form.

Plus Eve activating her full weapons state, and the Scoundrel that he had recently sublimated.

It could be said that, aside from the Blasphemy Card and The Hunt, Ye Qiyan was showing the utmost respect toward this black box seal.

"Should be, no problem."

He retrieved the Sealed Box from the storage unit.

Pressed a button on it.

A sphere of pure black light completely enveloped it.

"Huu~"

【Spirit: 210 (Witness Truth and Falsehood)】

【Spell-Breaking Sigil】

【Consumes 200 Spirit points, breaks any mystery/spell/seal/barrier/anomaly...】

Ye Qiyan raised the exquisitely crafted spiral dagger high with both hands, aiming it at the black sphere of light before him.

"Let me see what's really inside here."

!——!

The moment the dagger's tip touched the seal.

Everything in this space was engulfed by extreme black and white colors.

As if everything had transformed into scenes from a black and white comic.

This monochrome state didn't last long. When the world regained its colors, cracks appeared on the sealed light sphere and it began to shatter bit by bit.

Until, it completely fractured.

Creeak—

The Sealed Box opened, and something popped out from within, landing heavily on the ground.

It was a box, one he had seen somewhere before—no, to be precise, it was a box he owned.

"The seal contained a safety box?"

Indeed, it was the same as the safety box Shaya had given him before, just smaller.

And what was inside that safety box?

He approached and touched it.

The system's appraisal light screen appeared before his eyes.

【1×1 Safety Box (Level 8)】

【Set to non-safe state】

【Can be opened at any time】

【Currently contains one item】

【Effect: Cannot be damaged... (omitted)】

He skillfully pressed the opening button on the safety box.

What was stored inside this was the true object sealed by the Sealed Box.

Inside the box, there was only a deep azure cube, within which flowed and flickered constantly moving streams of starlight.

Appraisal again.

【Talent Cube (Level 12)】

【Contains the talent of a certain legendary Train Conductor】

【Requires user to actively bind. Upon the user's death, the possessed talent will be copied through this cube.】

【Usable Count: 10/10】

【Talent Name: Surpass the Stars】

【Surpass the Stars: Consumes spirit to temporarily increase the speed of an object/life/entity/train for a period. Each use stacks on top of previously increased speed and refreshes duration, but spirit consumption additionally increases.】

【When not using this talent, the Talent Cube releases special energy, using this talent's ability to influence the life level of surrounding entities】

【Note: I hid, I died, I failed! I don't want to go forward anymore, I want to stop! This talent shouldn't belong to me, anyone, take it!】

【Note 2: No... I can't let just anyone take it. Seal it, yes, the Sealed Box. Only those who can undo the Sealed Box can obtain my talent.】

【Note 3: Haha! Time cannot rewind! Nothing can be reversed! The path ahead remains the path ahead! Endless! I can't find the end, I can't reach the end!】

【Remark: This is the final keepsake left by someone before death】

A talent? Surpass the Stars? And these attached messages...

This, could it be that Zhou Shangqing's talent?

Ye Qiyan truly hadn't expected that what was inside the seal would be this thing.

He also never imagined that a talent could appear in this form.

"Zhou Shangqing? Looks like he was completely driven mad?"

He recalled the contents from the diary.

Expected by everyone.

Yet knowing from the start that failure was inevitable.

Such a thing would indeed be torturous for someone with an overwhelming sense of responsibility.

"Surpass the Stars, this person's talent is really called that name. But it can only be used ten times... It would be a pity once used up. Huh? Wait!"

Ye Qiyan slapped his forehead, suddenly thinking of something.

He retrieved from the Void Card Repository that fate card - Heaven's Unequal Exchange that he obtained from Zhao Lin.

"This thing can trade talents, right? Although it only trades half, it's better than having nothing at all."

"And there's no need to trade it now. Wait until the last use, then trade for this talent. Heh, never thought this card would actually come in handy one day."

Should really thank that charlatan Zhu Xingshu.

If she hadn't gone to trade Zhao Lin's talent, this card wouldn't have ended up in his hands.

Having opened the Sealed Box, Ye Qiyan didn't do anything else.

Not that he didn't want to, but after using the Spell-Breaking Sigil, his spirit was down to only ten points left.

With nothing better to do, he simply went to the water storage carriage to fish and pass the time, while having Lisette prepare dinner.

"Wonder if WALL-E has found any treasures yet."

————

Hanging Gardens.

Shaya completed her routine prayers.

Little Tina beside her handed over a golden ticket.

"Sister Nun, that annoying big sister left a ticket~ Are you going to that place again? Hmm.. I remember, it's called Sun..."

"Eris's Corona Arena~"

Shaya rubbed little Tina's head, curling up the corners of her lips.

"Last time I went was fifteen years ago. There are quite a few demigods or fools wanting to become gods waiting for me to hunt there. By the way, can collect plenty of good stuff there too. I'm curious if the highest win streak record is still under my name. If there's a chance~ might even encounter a god."

"It's definitely Sister Nun's record. Ah, right, there are these two more—Stellar Core and Lunar Heart. That annoying big sister gave them to me too. Should we throw them away?"

Looking at the two other tickets in Tina's hand, Shaya pondered slightly.

"Hmm... could give them to Ye Qiyan. Probably in about a month or so, he'll be able to enter advanced stations. With his Demon Sequence, as long as he's not too unlucky, he should be fine at Stellar Core level stations. Okay, decided. I'll contact him now."

Shaya pulled up the friends list interface, with Ye Qiyan's name at the very top.

Opening the chat page, she typed a message, but before she could send it.

A new prompt suddenly appeared on her train system.

【Permission activated, system prompt: Beep beep, the Train Conductor you are contacting, Ye Qiyan, is not within the same time flow space. Please activate time flow synchronization permission to establish contact.】

Shaya: "O_o???"

"Huh?"
