Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Azure blue.

Dazzlingly bright.

The shadow spoke the secret that Ye Qiyan had always kept buried deep in his heart, never mentioning it to anyone else.

[Sublimation]

He was a True God, yet, Ye Qiyan didn't sense any divinity from this guy. Even the Title he always wore was completely silent, showing no reaction whatsoever.

He seemed to be just an ordinary human, an ordinary human with only a mouth, representing the concept of [Death].

The shadow was strong.

Possibly stronger than any existence he had encountered before.

Perhaps only Train Conductors of the caliber of Shaya or Mr. Order could match him? Or perhaps... they couldn't?

However, he only knew one thing.

Death, there was nothing to fear about it.

The Wandering Star Holy Sigil shimmered brilliantly.

Even before he entered the Wasteland, he didn't seem to have been afraid of anything. After coming to the Wasteland, that point had never changed.

"Why don't you take a guess? Maybe you'll guess it."

A faint smile appeared on Ye Qiyan's face. He stroked The Hunt's dragon horn. In the cultivation carriage, Deceitful Play was stirring restlessly.

Just one command from him would unleash its power.

"No guess. I said, I cannot imagine things I have never seen, and likewise, I cannot guess at things I do not understand."

The shadow grinned, turning its head to face the Raven duo, still frozen before the door.

"Demon Card, Death Omen. A Demon Card Sequence possessing the concept of death, originating from the same source as my power, though it's still very weak right now."

"Human, I like you."

"Huh?"

Whoosh—!

Another soft hum.

Seizing the opportunity created by the constant evasion, Red Tears swung her sword once more. That tsunami-like sword energy left a deep scar upon the earth.

The shadow didn't dodge. Instead, it sighed, raised its palm, and blocked the sword energy with a thick black mist.

"Red Tears, return."

The Red Tears Demon received the command and silently returned to Ye Qiyan's side. Under Lisette's strange gaze, the wings at her waist fluttered gently a few times.

The shadow flickered into view, scratching its own face.

"Oh, sorry, sorry. It's been so long since I've spoken human language, I forgot the meaning. The words 'like you' seem very important in your human language. Hmm, let me change the word. It should be... I have high hopes for you."

Ye Qiyan let out a slight sigh of relief.

He absolutely did not want to accept being 'liked' by some inexplicable shadow person.

However, it seemed this shadow didn't have any intention of starting a fight either.

Otherwise, there would be no need to waste so much time talking all this nonsense.

If we can talk... maybe I can get some information about True Gods?

"Then I thank you. Anything else? If not, please leave, and close the door on your way out."

"Hmm, it would be even better if you lowered your gun barrel while saying that."

"That won't do. I don't trust you."

"Fair enough. Human, can you tell me of your existence? Oh no, I should say, can you tell me your name?"

With Red Tears' attacks ceased, the shadow slowly floated into mid-air, lying on a black cloud, propping its chin with both hands.

"Altos."

A name couldn't be given so casually. This guy clearly wasn't a good sort. Who knows if he has some notebook where writing a name down kills the person or even controls them?

"Altos. Hmm, I will remember you."

The shadow flickered back to the edge of the Death Realm Gate.

It gently tapped the heads of the Raven duo. Frozen there, they immediately regained their ability to move.

"Alright, time's almost up. If I stay any longer, this world might just die completely because of me.

Altos, I'll leave this door for you. If you encounter something you cannot resolve, open the door~ Just once. The Death Realm will take the vitality of an entire world. Don't waste it."

"You're not taking this door with you?"

"Why would I take it? This is your spoils of war. Hmm, according to the rules of your train system, what a Train Conductor obtains belongs to the Train Conductor."

The shadow walked towards the inside of the door with a grin. The moment half of its body entered the door, Ye Qiyan, driven by curiosity, still asked:

"Can you tell me what a True God is?"

He didn't use Bewitchment.

The shadow paused there, tilting its head. The smile on its face grew even more radiant, seemingly very pleased that Ye Qiyan would ask this question.

"So-called True Gods are merely a name those fools gave us. I, we, reside in the Wasteland, transcend the Wasteland, are the pinnacle of the Wasteland Species, are..."

"The strongest Overcomers."

The shadow's tone became somewhat strange. The smile on its face seemed filled with anticipation and a peculiar madness.

"Altos."

"I look forward to the day you enter the Death Realm."

"I also look forward to the moment of your death."

"When you die, I will personally take you to the Death Realm! At that time, I will know everything about you. You will become my most capable assistant, helping me fulfill my wish."

Ye Qiyan waved his hand dismissively.

"Then forget it. I still prefer being alive. If you want my life, you're welcome to try. As for your wish, why don't you try getting a few Train Coins and pray properly? Maybe a Train Conductor more powerful than me will go over."

The shadow tilted its head.

"I won't try. If I actively cause your death, that would only make you unwilling to go to the Death Realm with me. Other humans are different, I'm not familiar with them~"

"I'm not familiar with you either. Besides, you'll be disappointed. I won't kick the bucket that easily."

"It's fine. I believe you will eventually come to the Death Realm~ After all, you are a human Train Conductor~ Once you become powerful, you will definitely come."

The shadow completely entered the door and disappeared. The Demon Raven flew to the edge of the doorframe and, with a claw, shut this tattered wooden door.

"What a strange fellow..."

Ye Qiyan remained on high alert for quite a while. Only after confirming the shadow wouldn't reappear did he finally exit the Overcomer state.

He had been prepared long ago. If the situation turned bad, he would directly use the Anchor to send the shadow to the Wasteland.

Then, after closing the door, it probably wouldn't be so easy for this shadow to come back to this world.

Taking it a step further, even if this guy could really return, he would then use the Anchor's navigation to escape directly. With this back and forth, he refused to believe this guy could still catch up.

"So True Gods are actually Overcomers? The pinnacle of the Wasteland Species... Huh, come to think of it, was that eyeball back then...?"

The trial of the Gray Fog, that winged eyeball. That guy was probably also a "True God," and a True God who collaborated with the System at that.

The shadow vanished, the door closed.

The text on the System returned to its normal state.

Everything seemed as if nothing had happened.

However, Ye Qiyan suddenly noticed.

Whether it was the Sand Soldiers condensed by Matmu, the Dog-headed Men believers, the magical beasts, or the Desert Bandits...

All of them had peacefully fallen.

"Whew..."

"Next, it's time to settle the score."

This station still had one last enemy.

Matmu's Self clone.

The guy who left behind the troublesome Death Realm Gate.

How could Ye Qiyan possibly let him go?

"Judge."

"Arrest him and bring him back to me."

[Arrest!]
