Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

"Useless!"

In a certain interstitial layer within the First District.

The Goblin God's face was ugly as it listened to the information reported by its subordinate Apostles.

"I only told him to go purchase mechanical-related items. How could he directly expose his identity? Damn it..."

It angrily struck its scepter. The Apostles beside it didn't dare to even breathe loudly.

"How much progress is left on the Abyss Machinery construction?"

"Ninety-nine percent. The shell is already complete. Now, we only need you, the great Goblin God, to pour your divine power into it and insert the final gear."

Its expression softened slightly.

It raised its black bean-like eyes to look upward.

The black mech-soldier was loaded with a large number of restraints and gnome technology.

Its original appearance was practically buried beneath these devices.

Only a pair of crimson eyes that had not yet lit up were visible.

"Hmph, foolish humans. They have no understanding of how powerful the Abyss Machinery truly is, and they actually traded it to me for a mere few thousand coins."

The Goblin God held a black, automatically rotating gear in its hand.

It walked straight up to the mech. Mechanical jets assembled beneath its feet, carrying it up to the forehead of the Abyss Mech-soldier, where it inserted the gear into a slot there.

"You will become my vessel, bearing the divine power of the great Goblin God!"

"Your will is meaningless. Everything about you will be controlled by me!"

The Goblin God.

Even among C-grade deities, it was considered a straggler.

It believed itself to possess wisdom surpassing all other gods.

Yet, the shackles of being a gnome race and the deliberate suppression by the Goblin God left it with no possibility of advancement.

To break free from this situation, the path it chose for the gnomes was to use gnome technology to create various powerful machines and then place itself inside the machinery to become their "flesh."

The Abyss Mech-soldier instinctively sensed the demise of its own will. Its core attempted to resist the Goblin God.

But it was ultimately just an inanimate object. This instinct vanished completely the moment the Goblin God's divine power and its tiny, ugly form merged into it.

BOOM—

"Hahahaha!"

The Goblin God's maniacal laughter echoed from within the Abyss Machinery.

"This is the power I desired! Next, I just need to turn the Train Conductors in this city into my nourishment, then go establish my own Divine Kingdom! One day, I will surely break through to B-rank!"

RUMBLE—

The earth trembled.

The gnome Apostles knelt one after another, prostrating themselves in worship.

"The great Goblin God shall possess everything!"

Time [10:12:05]

Ye Qiyan sat outside an open-air milk tea shop.

His leisurely demeanor seemed completely unconcerned about the impending danger.

Scrape.

The chair opposite him was pulled out.

"Ex, excuse me... can I sit here?"

He looked around.

There were still plenty of seats nearby.

Ye Qiyan put down his cup, looking at the somewhat timid, inexplicably depressing young man before him.

"This shop has many other seats. I don't have the habit of sharing a table with strangers, so?"

"...I know you. You are, A, Altos..."

"No, that's wrong. It's Ye... Ye Qiyan."

The latter name was spoken in an extremely small voice, so small that only the depressing youth and Ye Qiyan could hear it.

Hmm?

Ye Qiyan's eyes narrowed slightly as he checked internally.

Arrogance was still active at its minimum threshold. People who didn't know him shouldn't be able to find him, let alone say his name.

But who is this guy? He didn't remember knowing him.

Lisette stood silently to the side, the floating spikes behind her ready to transform into Chrono-Mechanical Armament at any moment.

"Ah, no, don't misunderstand... Um, ah, hold on, just a moment."

The depressing youth fumbled nervously, opening his own system interface. After manipulating it for a bit, he looked up and whispered:

"I sent you a friend request... C, can you accept it?"

Ye Qiyan stopped Lisette's movement and silently called up his own system interface. Sure enough, he saw a brand new friend request there.

And the source of this request...

[Achuan has sent you a friend request. Accept? Yes/No]

[Source: Imperial Sequence Organization Public Chat Room]

He's from the Imperial Sequence Organization.

Ye Qiyan remembered that Shaya had mentioned not long ago that besides her, two other members of the Imperial Sequence Organization he didn't know had come to the Hanging Gardens.

This Achuan before him was actually one of them.

"How did you find me?"

Ye Qiyan didn't refuse and added Achuan as a friend.

"Achuan... Is that your name?"

Achuan seemed somewhat nervous, only relaxing after seeing the request was accepted.

He didn't seem to like talking much, so he simply used the private chat interface of the friend system, tapping on the light screen face-to-face with Ye Qiyan.

["Yeah, just Achuan. Um... it wasn't me who found you, it was my Ghost Spirit."]

Achuan reached out and patted his own shoulder.

A chibi-style, ethereal spirit appeared there, waved at Ye Qiyan, and then vanished.

["Oh right, my Card Sequence is the Ghost Spirit Cards. If you happen to find any in that world, you can sell them to me. I'll buy them with the utmost sincerity.

Of course, if I find any Demon Cards, I'll notify you immediately and sell them to you too.

Big Sister Zhu Xingshu said this is about mutual help within the organization..."]

Ghost Spirit Cards.

Another Card Sequence he hadn't heard of.

Since he wasn't talking, Ye Qiyan also started using the private chat on the system interface.

["So, you sought me out for a reason? Let me be clear upfront, I have no interest in any of Zhu Xingshu's plans. Me being here has nothing to do with her either."]

Achuan was taken aback.

["No... Big Sister Zhu Xingshu said that if we see someone from the organization, we should go say hello. We might be able to add each other as friends. That's why I came."]

["But, you're really amazing..."]

His eyes held a trace of envy, completely devoid of malice.

["After clearing a high-level Station World, I took a quick look at the Imperial Sequence chat logs. Even though no one mentioned me... I saw the information about you joining the organization..."]

["You're actually a new Train Conductor from this batch... and you already have six or seven Card Sequences. I was from the batch three years ago. After all these years, I only have six..."]

["Ah, I'm rambling a bit. What I really wanted to say is..."]

Achuan stopped typing, looked up, and with his utterly depressing eyes fixed on Ye Qiyan, he spoke out loud:

"This world has a god present. You, you need to, be careful. I am going to slay a god. It might, might affect you. Even if, you have that dragon, it's the same."]
