Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Chapter 362: [Countermeasure: Cursed Demon Eye]

"How is this thing supposed to be used?"

After ending the conversation with the Black Market Customer Service.

Ye Qiyan stayed on this island, waiting for WALL-E's return while researching and using the rewards he obtained after completing the mission.

【Curse-type Enhancement Gem】

Currently, the items in Ye Qiyan's hands that could be considered proper curse-type tools were only two.

The former was an item obtained after the 7-level treasure chest from the Level 7 station Phoenix Auspice Hotel underwent Sublimation.

【Evil Eye Gemstone (Level 8)】

【After equipping, can use Evil Eye Curse. Units hit by the curse will enter a random weakened state for a period of time. This state is determined by the user's spirit.】

【Note: This gemstone can be used to replace a human eye.】

The death concept carried by the Death Omen Demon could, in a sense, also be considered a type of curse.

But this tool did not trigger any reaction from the Card Sequence.

Clearly, it was unusable.

"The gemstone and the tree, choose one of the two."

Ye Qiyan thought for a moment.

"The Black Nether Fruit Tree has the Nether Speech to continuously strengthen it. This Evil Eye Gemstone, however, can compensate for some of my weaknesses on the mystical side."

To put it bluntly, the Black Nether Fruit was a poison named "Curse".

Using it was relatively more troublesome.

So far, only Gluttony, that guy who would eat anything, had been severely punished by the Black Nether Fruit once.

"This one it is."

The black, eye-shaped gemstone lay flat in front of Ye Qiyan.

Beside it, the Curse-type Enhancement Gem seemed to be drawn by something, involuntarily and slowly moving towards the direction of the eye-shaped gemstone.

"Don't rush. There's still one thing to do now. Oh no, it should be two things."

Ye Qiyan's hand grasped the Evil Eye Gemstone.

A cerulean light flow continuously merged with it in his palm.

Talent activated—

【Sublimation.】

Ye Qiyan whispered softly in his heart.

The surrounding sea surface seemed to be pulled by some force, gradually transforming from its original calm state into choppy, turbulent waves.

Boom—

Lightning flickered in the sky.

The Red Tears Demon raised her eyes, silently gazing at the heavens.

A tear of blood slid from the corner of her eye.

The originally pale lightning suddenly turned into crimson bolts of electricity.

It began to rain.

But it was a rain of red tears.

When Ye Qiyan reopened his eyes, by his side, the sword-wielding demon girl was holding a red umbrella, her eyes lowered, meeting his gaze.

"Is there something strange on my face?"

Red Tears blinked lightly.

Ye Qiyan touched his own cheek, didn't find anything, and simply refocused his attention back onto his hand.

That Evil Eye Gemstone had actually become crystal clear, as if containing countless points of light within.

【Stamina: 200→140】【Spirit: 240→100】

【Evil Eye Gemstone (Level 8)→Demon Eye Gemstone (Level 9)】

【Cast a curse on any unit, selecting from Weakened, Slowed, or Desire, causing it to enter that type of cursed state. The curse effect is singular and can be changed at any time. As spirit consumption increases, the curse effect strengthens.】

【Note: Can be used to replace a real eye】

【Note: The curse caster can naturally lift their own curse at any time.】

The curse effect changed from a single Weakened type to three types.

Slowed, and Desire.

The former was easy to understand.

The latter? What did it mean?

"Think about it later. Let's Sublimate this one first."

【Curse-type Enhancement Gem】

Since it possessed a physical form, it naturally could undergo Sublimation.

The same action, the same success.

What was different was that this gemstone did not consume too much of Ye Qiyan's stamina and spirit.

【Stamina: 140→120】【Spirit: 102→62】

【Curse-type Enhancement Gem→Defensive Curse-type Enhancement Gem】

【After using on any curse-type tool, grants that tool a specialized ability: Curse Counter】

【Curse Counter: When the holder of a tool with this ability is affected by a curse, they can consume spirit to counter that curse】

"Hmm? Looks pretty good."

Countering curses was equivalent to adding another layer of protection for his own safety.

He just didn't know if it would still be effective if he faced the person who possessed the Curse Card.

He brought the Demon Eye Gemstone close to the Enhancement Gem.

The moment the two touched, a terrifying black light erupted.

The light dissipated.

In Ye Qiyan's hand, only a single, non-physical, eye-shaped orb of light remained.

【Demon Eye Gemstone→Counter·Cursed Demon Eye】

【To any unit.......】

【Counter Curse...】

【After wearing, upon contact with any curse, immediately learn its detailed information and obtain a method to break it.】

The initial description was the same as before, including the obtained countermeasure.

The true additional effect the Gem provided for the Demon Eye was placed at the end.

"The item is quite good. Its potential... directly exhausted, unable to undergo further Sublimation? Speaking of which, how is this supposed to be worn?"

Could it be he had to gouge out his own eye?

Ye Qiyan had no intention of doing such a foolish thing.

After a brief hesitation, he tried injecting a bit of spirit into the Demon Eye.

Soon, the Demon Eye reacted.

It wasn't Sublimation again, but rather, it directly dissipated.

"?"

While Ye Qiyan was still puzzled, the voice of the System suddenly sounded in his ear.

【Obtained Train Conductor Enhancement Module: Cursed Demon Eye】

"So it directly turned into an Enhancement Module?"

"That's acceptable too. At least I don't have to carry it on my person all the time."

Ye Qiyan felt the new power he had obtained and tentatively activated the ability.

Thump—

In an instant.

A black eyeball appeared in the sky.

"It seems it can be hidden?"

The eyeball gradually faded until it completely disappeared.

But as long as Ye Qiyan maintained the spirit consumption, its power still existed.

Even if summoned again, it remained in a transparent state.

"That's much more pleasing to the eye now."

All the effort spent on this wasn't wasted.

Obtaining a new ability once again strengthened Ye Qiyan's own combat power.

Now, as long as he used Defiance's ability, he could utilize the power of the demons. Combined with the Sky-Plundering Wings, the assistance of various tools, and the Judgment of Gunfire.

Now, even in Eris's Stellar Core Arena, without using summoned creatures, he could probably clear it.

Time passed like a fleeting white steed.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the third day Ye Qiyan had been waiting on this island for WALL-E's return.

The stations were getting bigger and bigger. Finding the hidden treasures took more and more time and became increasingly troublesome.

Beep beep—

Time: 【10:09:51】

Ye Qiyan heard a sound.

That pair of Mother-Child Light Stickers were currently emitting a faint glow.

It was WALL-E. It had already found the treasure of this station.
