Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Chapter 430: The 36th Station [Sea Kite Island]

This time, Ye Qiyan genuinely did not want to stir up trouble.

He truly, sincerely wanted to have a proper rest for once.

"Can't possibly be this unlucky every single time... Hmm, forget it, can't really call it unlucky either."

Shaking his head speechlessly, Ye Qiyan was the first to respond to Zhao Lin's message.

["The location is Sea Kite Island? Do you have an Invitation Card?"]

Wasteland.

Zhao Lin, who was eating instant noodles, quickly swallowed the noodles in her mouth upon hearing the notification from her tablet.

Seeing Ye Qiyan's reply, she subconsciously rubbed her eyes.

"Huh? Am I seeing things? Is Brother Qiyan actually going? Could it be that place... is something about to happen again?"

She shuddered and shook the thoughts from her head.

"Huff... It's fine, it's fine. There was so much luck last time, there's still some leftover now. Luck, yeah, it'll definitely be fine, right?"

["I have an Invitation Card, Brother Qiyan. Are you going too? How did you know it was Sea Kite Island? I thought you wouldn't participate in this kind of thing."]

["What kind of person do you take me for? I am, after all, a Train Conductor from the same batch as you all."]

["Uh, hehe... Yes, yes, right, the same batch..."]

Zhao Lin compared Ye Qiyan to the others from their batch.

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed... she was probably the most impressive one?

["Well, um, I'll send you the Invitation Card right now. Actually, Brother Qiyan, Zhao An and the others should have sent one to everyone. But, Brother Qiyan, you don't want them to know you're going, right? I understand, I won't blab."]

They had indeed sent one, he just hadn't replied yet.

Having obtained the Invitation Card, Ye Qiyan turned his attention to another message.

["Tired. Resting."]

He used these brief four words as a response.

He hadn't said no, he just hadn't accepted her Invitation Card.

"Sea Kite Island, huff... That's the one."

Without any waiting or hesitation.

Ye Qiyan's Train headed towards the new station platform.

[Sea Kite Island]

[Ding ding—]

[You have selected Sea Kite Island as your 36th station. The Crossroads of Fate is triggered at this moment.]

[Please choose your stopping point from the following two options.]

[Option One: Sea Kite Island Harbor Station Platform]

[Option Two: Observation Second Harbor Station Platform]

"I choose one."

When unaware of the specific situation within a city, Ye Qiyan would choose the relatively safer, normal method of entry.

Moreover, this Second Harbor Station Platform didn't look particularly special either.

[Stopping point selection complete.]

[Please remain seated and hold on. The train will shortly arrive at your 36th station: Sea Kite Island.]

The steam whistle sounded, tracks stretched forth.

The void manifested, the train traversed it.

Outside the train window, the scenery changed.

Swoosh—

What met his eyes was a sparkling, shimmering sea surface.

Buoys floated slowly, one after another.

Several ships sailed in the distance.

"The sea?"

The train was traveling on the surface of the sea.

Moving forward, more and more trains converged at one point.

They began queuing up at the multiple entry ports that existed for every city.

Taking advantage of the queuing time, Ye Qiyan also connected to Sea Kite Island's public official website and gained a rough understanding of the city's situation.

This place was not one of the original 12 cities.

In other words, it was most likely unrelated to the Homeward-bound Souls.

Hmm, the probability of something happening immediately decreased significantly.

Furthermore, Sea Kite Island was also a resort city.

This place maintained a perpetual summer, and because it was close to the ocean, its entertainment facilities leaned towards seaside vacationing.

This made Ye Qiyan even more satisfied.

He didn't have to wait too long.

Entering the Capsule Tunnel, storing the train in the Matrix, and walking out.

[Module: Illusory Attire]

His clothing changed.

He changed into a relatively casual summer outfit.

Lisette followed behind him. Before getting off the train, Ye Qiyan had also bought her a white dress from the Trading Platform.

While the maid outfit was nice, seeing it too often could become tiresome.

Changing it up occasionally was quite good.

After all, while Lisette was called a mechanical maid, there was basically no visible mechanical construction on her body. Saying she was human seemed more believable.

"It really feels exactly like summer."

There weren't many Guilds in this city.

Even the Station World natives, who made up ninety-nine percent of the population, weren't as eager to become Train Conductors as those in other cities.

How should one describe the atmosphere in this city?

Laid-back?

Using this state to describe the people of this city didn't seem inappropriate.

But this wasn't a laid-back attitude influenced by an Order Card. It was, in the true sense, a genuine peace from the bottom of their hearts.

After exchanging currency at the exchange.

Ye Qiyan didn't plan to contact anyone. He found a secluded stretch of beach.

Lisette set up a sun umbrella for him.

Lying on the deck chair, enjoying the fruit his maid fed to his mouth.

Ye Qiyan felt his stamina should recover a bit faster now.

————

Unlike Ye Qiyan's comfort.

In the Guild district of Sea Kite Island.

At the renamed Tranquil Association's Guild headquarters.

Zhao An was pacing back and forth here.

His mood wasn't very good. Looking at the messages received on the phone that hosted the train system chatroom, his expression appeared quite unpleasant.

"Li Xiaosheng, that madman, actually chose to come back at this time, and even says he wants to turn me into a vampire to be his underling?"

"Has he gone completely insane?"

From a distance, Shangguan Yingxue, who was resting with her eyes closed, responded lightly:

"The Invitation Cards that needed to be sent out, I've already sent them all. It's just that person didn't reply. He probably just finished a station conquest and likely doesn't have time to come."

"It's fine, just one person."

Zhao An shook his head, not caring.

Since establishing the Guild, he felt his perspective had far surpassed that of ordinary Train Conductors from the same batch.

"Our gathering this time is the decision of the Grand Guild Leader. Those who can come are lucky. If they don't come, it just means their luck isn't good enough."

Seeing Zhao An's completely unconcerned expression, Shangguan Yingxue only shook her head silently in her heart.

Ye Qiyan.

This person.

Very special, very mysterious.

For others, more or less, everyone could get some information.

But this Train Conductor, who initially stood out brilliantly among people and was the first to sell firearms, had completely vanished from sight.

He seemed to not need anyone else's help at all.

"Li Xiaosheng probably wouldn't dare do anything. Since he wants to come, let him come. If this guy tries to cause trouble, we'll just deal with him then."

Zhao An muttered to himself, not noticing that Shangguan Yingxue had already left the area.

She took out her Japanese-style flip phone, staring slightly distractedly at the extremely brief reply Ye Qiyan had sent.

"Forget it, we were never on the same path to begin with..."
