Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

As all the radiance gradually faded away.

Before Ye Qiyan, the Demon Flower God had already vanished without a trace. It had gone to the Wasteland that the "Gods" so desperately craved, although, for now, it seemed they couldn't gain a foothold there~.

"With this guy dealt with, the system still hasn't lifted the block? It seems the one blocking the system might not be this Demon Flower God. Could it be... the Homeward-bound Souls from the Hanging Gardens did it?"

After banishing the god, there was no prompt from the system.

Clearly, this hunting achievement would also be tallied in the final evaluation after the three-day countdown ended.

"However, that guy is definitely, thoroughly dead."

The Judge's Justice Mark completely disappeared mere seconds after the Demon Flower God was teleported away.

This meant that the marked entity, along with its marked location, had been utterly erased.

Otherwise, this Justice Mark, even carrying death, wouldn't have vanished with it. It should have remained until Ye Qiyan used the next mark.

The sounds of fierce cannon fire and deafening steam were incessant.

Ye Qiyan looked up, following the noise.

He saw the Steam King, transformed by Gluttony, along with numerous mechanical legions, launching attacks against the Flower Demon monsters that kept appearing from the surroundings even after the Demon Flower God's death.

Within the sea of flowers, these Flower Demons continuously emerged from beneath the ground.

Showing no signs of stopping.

"Is this an attempt to wear me down here?"

"It does feel a bit like that Slaughter Platform I encountered before that tried to trap me to death. Could it be that the Slaughter Platform was the handiwork of those guys?"

Ye Qiyan walked back along the path he came from. With numerous machines and demons clearing the way, even if there were countless Flower Demons, they couldn't harm a single hair on his head.

Upon reaching that wooden hut, it was completely unsurprising.

The path leading downwards had completely vanished, replaced by solid earth.

It was as if the passage had never existed. Even when he had the Raven demons dig downwards continuously, it still didn't appear. Instead, they just unearthed more Flower Demons.

Can't get out? A seal? Or, world isolation?

Ye Qiyan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I see, so that's why he said those words at the end. He thought I'd be trapped forever in this space, huh?"

"What a pity."

"If it were anyone else, they might truly be trapped to death. But if it's me~"

Anchor—

Ye Qiyan snapped his fingers.

All the machines and demons returned.

Only Lisette remained by his side.

"Hmm... No, we should still think of another way. We can't just leave Lisette here."

Lisette tiptoed to Ye Qiyan's side and, in a voice only the two of them could hear, whispered softly by his ear.

"It's possible."

"?"

"I, can, go, together."

"You mean, you can come with me using the Anchor's voyage?"

She nodded gently.

The Anchor's voyage was supposed to only transport one person. Why was Lisette so certain she could follow along?

The mechanical maid, indistinguishable from a human, blinked and gently poked her master's palm, offering a reminder.

"Armament Space."

"...Ha, good thing you reminded me."

Ye Qiyan sighed, facepalming, and couldn't help but chuckle.

How could he have forgotten about that?

Right.

Although Lisette was a maid, she was also a mechanical lifeform.

And a mechanical lifeform was also a type of weapon.

If it's a weapon, then it could enter the Armament Space. The reason he hadn't thought of it immediately was simply because Lisette was too similar to a human. Most of the time, Ye Qiyan almost forgot she was a mechanical lifeform.

"Alright, then there's no problem. We'll leave together."

A pale blue, mirror-like lake-like portal unfolded at Lisette's feet from the Armament Space.

Lisette smiled, waved at Ye Qiyan, and then slowly sank into it.

"Done. Now we can leave directly."

Without waiting, the Anchor's second ability activated.

"Voyage—!"

Submersion.

Like falling into an abyss.

Once again, Ye Qiyan felt as if he had plunged into a cold, deep sea. Above, only a tiny speck of sunlight shone through the water's surface.

And the indistinct whispers, still unclear, seemed to have become slightly more audible.

It was clearly a cold abyss.

Yet...

It felt peaceful, comfortable.

As if returning home on a Saturday or Sunday, with bright sunshine, no work or school, lazing in bed under the covers~

"Hah—"

A breath.

The moment he opened his eyes.

Ye Qiyan was already in his train's locomotive section, at the location of the Anchor's anchor point.

"The feeling of each voyage really is different every time. But, it's getting more and more comfortable."

"How strange, truly baffling. Could this be a hidden effect of the Anchor?"

"Never mind, let's get Lisette out first."

The Armament Space opened once more.

Lisette slowly emerged from within.

She maintained the same smile she had when entering. After appearing, she looked around and realized her master had already returned here.

It was also through Lisette's account that Ye Qiyan learned.

That items placed within the Armament Space would have all their time paused. They were basically unable to perceive anything, including themselves. Unless something could trigger them within the space, or unless Ye Qiyan called for them.

So, in just the blink of an eye, she had returned from that high tower to Ye Qiyan's side.

"Now, we can rest for a bit. Speaking of which, how much longer until the system recovers?"

Ye Qiyan glanced at the countdown for the train system's restoration.

[13:51:04]

There were still nearly fourteen hours left until the lockdown was lifted.

The time he spent in the high tower was longer than he had imagined.

"The final thirteen hours, there's probably no need to do much more. After that Demon Flower God was dealt with, nothing else is likely to happen here. Hmm... No, come to think of it, what about Zhu Xingshu? That woman, wouldn't she do anything?"

As a thorough, utterly unpopular, trouble-making charlatan, would she obediently wait for the countdown to end? And then, just leave?

————

"My, my~"

"Really now."

"Fate says that Demon Flower God is dead as a doornail."

"It seems Brother Ye's Blasphemy Card is much more lethal to gods than my Astrolabe~ Hehe."

"However, having said that, this stage play isn't completely over yet. An ambitious fellow~ has left quite a few interesting things behind. Like... this one."

Among the three high towers at the center of the Demon Flower God's city of faith.

Apart from the one Ye Qiyan had completely conquered.

Zhu Xingshu appeared at the top of the high tower in the northeast corner.

She smiled, looking at a pulsating pink flower bud before her.

"Clearly a god~ yet wanting to use the power of a Card Sequence to enhance itself?"

"Haha~ Well, it makes sense. This power is, after all, so enchanting, so utterly captivating."

"Just, a pity, you will never be able to deconstruct this power~."

"Not even the highest among you can do it."

In Zhu Xingshu's hand, the Astrolabe emitted a starry radiance.

This light swept across the flower bud before her.

The bud bloomed, and a thick, pink aura rushed towards her.

However, Zhu Xingshu had long been prepared.

She had already put on a Gas Mask beforehand.

Walking into this pink aura, within the blooming flower.

A pink Card Sequence was grasped in her hand.

[Game Card·Heart's Bloom Lock]

"Hehe, so it's a Game Card."

"It's something that Laine guy wants."

"If it were before, I could have used this card to cash in a big favor from him. But now~"

Zhu Xingshu gently licked the corner of her lips, as if thinking of something very amusing.

"Recently, a new Game Card holder has appeared~ Hehe, if I give this card to the newcomer, will Laine be furious when he finds out? He definitely will. That smiling guy is quite petty."

"No, no. I've finally managed to accumulate a little bit of favor recently. Can't spend it so easily."

"But..."

"That talent intertwining luck and misfortune~ Having a Game Card, it really feels like it would be so much fun~"

"Astrolabe, don't you think so?"

The Blasphemy Card did not speak. It silently returned to the space behind Zhu Xingshu's head.

"Oh, right. Let's give this card to Brother Ye. After all, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have gotten it so easily. Let him decide whether to give it to little sister Zhao Lin~"

"Mhm, mhm. This way, I can accumulate just a tiny bit more favor~"

"Next activity..."

"Need to get more people to participate. But... what should we do next? That golden old coot has taken back all the Order Cards."

Zhu Xingshu, smiling, left the high tower with this brand new Card Sequence.

"Never mind. Finished the side tasks. Now, it's finally time to start doing some proper business."

Halfway there, she suddenly thought of something.

"Oh, right. That Smokey Fan Huo, he wouldn't think I killed the Demon Flower God, would he?"

"..."

After a brief silence, Zhu Xingshu increasingly felt that this sudden thought of hers had over a 99% probability of being true, and could only sigh helplessly.

"Well, after all, the fact that Brother Ye possesses the Blasphemy Card hasn't been exposed yet. And I can't possibly tell anyone about this. Hmm..."

"Forget it. It's best if everyone believes all the gods died because of me. That way, those idiots from the Homeward-bound Souls will definitely want my life desperately. What a pity~ Can't have that. I haven't seen enough of such interesting things as fate being overturned."

"Brother Ye... Hehe... Demon and Blasphemy, what an interesting combination."
