【Artifice·Lava Shield】

【Mechanical·Exclusive Equipment】

【Modified from a divine core through the train system】

【Already Equipped: Scoundrel】

【Resonating with the Decay Core】

【Scoundrel: Defense increased】

【Hatred Attraction Device enhanced】

"Why does it feel like it's leaning more and more toward being a tank?"

The Scoundrel already came with a decay reflection shield, and now with this Lava Shield added, Ye Qiyan imagined a very amusing scene.

"Done."

After equipping this core, Ye Qiyan focused all his attention on the black market's trading platform.

Over the course of the afternoon.

Most of those items and weapons had been purchased by others, transformed into two hundred and eight warm Train Coins.

"897, finally gathered enough."

He opened the upgrade store.

The countdown on it still had thirty days remaining.

【New Anchor】: 777 Train Coins.

Without hesitation, Ye Qiyan directly purchased it.

The moment he pressed the purchase button.

The Anchor flew out from the Void Card Repository on its own.

On it, new light points appeared on both sides of the original three light points.

"That's it? It's done?"

Ye Qiyan had thought there would be some big commotion.

"Drop anchor!"

On the Anchor, the first anchor point was set in the Wasteland.

"Still fifty points of mental consumption."

The second anchor point was set in the locomotive section.

He wouldn't use these two anchor points unless he needed to use banishment twice consecutively.

He temporarily kept the remaining three, planning to set them at the next station.

After handling all this, Ye Qiyan yawned, looking out the train window at that bright, enormous full moon, as drowsiness washed over him.

"Haaah~ Finally, I'm back..."

......

Night fell.

The bright moonlight shone through the train window onto Ye Qiyan's body.

On his chest.

That tiny, jellyfish-like Dream Eater floated up.

Dreamlike and illusory~ The moonlight fell upon it, coating it with a layer of gorgeous silver light.

It seemed to have undergone some changes.

Its soft, squishy body wobbled unsteadily back to Ye Qiyan's chest, wanting to attach itself there again.

But Lisette, who had been watching all this from the side, suddenly reached out her hand and grabbed it.

The Dream Eater wanted to struggle, but found it simply didn't have the strength. Its body emitted faint, dreamy streams of light, yet it still had no effect on Lisette.

Helpless, it could only obediently remain caught in her hand, unable to move.

Until.

The next day.

Ye Qiyan woke from his sleep.

"Still sleeping most comfortably in the Wasteland~"

That being said, if you asked Ye Qiyan to explain the difference between the Wasteland and Station Worlds~ he actually couldn't put it into words.

"Hmm? What's that in your hand?"

Noticing the jellyfish pinched in Lisette's hand, Ye Qiyan asked somewhat puzzled.

"Dream Eater? Why does it feel different from before?"

Lisette wasn't unfamiliar with Dream Eaters, but she had pinched it in her hand last night, meaning this little creature must have done something during the night that caused a small silver diamond-shaped mark to appear on its body?

【Dream Eater Juvenile】

【It is being blessed by the bright moon~ It is being influenced by an unknown talent~ It possesses possibilities completely different from its race~】

Ye Qiyan was clear about the unknown talent part, probably due to its Sublimation.

But what was this bright moon blessing?

"Little guy, do you know something?"

Poking the Dream Eater's soft, jellyfish-like body, Ye Qiyan laughed at his own thought.

"Really, I actually thought about asking you."

He took the tiny Dream Eater back from Lisette's hand and stuffed it back into his chest.

The cool, icy sensation made him feel more alert.

"I forgot to check the weather yesterday. Today... there's such heavy fog outside."

Looking at the Sunny Doll.

Its appearance had changed to one covered with a semi-transparent white cloth.

【Today's Weather: Heavy Fog】

"Probably not particularly special weather."

After washing up, Lisette prepared fresh grilled meat steak for him.

After breakfast, Ye Qiyan took WALL-E to the Water Storage Carriage to fish.

Along the way, he'd reply to the messages he saw yesterday.

"First, let's get the equipment."

He opened the friend chat dialog with Menrojina.

【"Nothing much, was too busy conquering the station and didn't see your message. Is the equipment ready? I don't plan to enter the city for now, can you send it directly to me? As for the Fengyue Flower, I'll collect it later."】

Soon.

Menrojina sent him a reply.

【"Okay~"】

Without any unnecessary words.

A brand new email soon appeared in his mailbox.

【Hope you'll like them

—By Menrojina】

What kind of equipment would they be?

Filled with curiosity, Ye Qiyan clicked the extract button.

Immediately, two rings—one black and one white—appeared in his hand.

The former was black, engraved with a burning black flower.

【Flower of Evil (Level 8)】

【When equipped: Attaches the special burning status of Flower of Evil when attacking.】

The latter was white, patterned with two mechanical gears interlocked together.

【Artifice Command (Level 9)】

【When equipped: Consumes a certain amount of mental power to use any metal/mechanical/material to combine into usable machinery for a limited time. After scrapping, the materials used are also destroyed.】

【Easier to succeed when crafting mechanical items.】

Two rings.

One level eight and one level nine.

This completely exceeded Ye Qiyan's expectations.

"Actually level nine? I thought level eight would be the best possible. This white one seems really good."

Ye Qiyan equipped 【Artifice Command】 on his right index finger.

"Huh? It can be hidden too."

The equipment description light screen popped up with a new interface.

He pressed the hide button on it.

The ring disappeared from his hand, as if it had never existed, even when touched.

"Like it really disappeared? But the ability still works."

"As for combining machinery..."

He took out fifty Mechanical Parts from his Storage Unit.

"Combine."

Issuing the command.

A white metal ring appeared in Ye Qiyan's hand.

All the Mechanical Parts began combining under this power.

When the final product appeared, the corner of Ye Qiyan's mouth twitched several times.

A mechanical rifle composed of combined mechanical gears appeared before Ye Qiyan.

"...So ugly..."

With a wave of his hand, the rifle immediately scrapped.

"The ability is decent, but it only lasts for a limited time."

"As for Sublimation, I should probably use it on my own talent first, but I'm still lacking in physical strength, right?"

Not the numerical value, since that can be compensated with potions.

What he needs is an increase in his physical strength upper limit.

The more he used Sublimation, the more clearly he understood that to perform Sublimation on his talent again, he needed to raise his physical strength upper limit to 200.
