Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Chapter 524: Eighth Card! [The Devil Card - Redemption]

The system interface flickered with a faint glow.

In Ye Qiyan's palm, a wisp of azure-blue light stream quietly manifested.

It fused with the blank Demon Card that had been severed into two pieces.

Boom——!!!

It started to rain...

Red Tears looked up at the sky.

Because of that sword strike just now, this sealed space could now see the world beyond the Abyss.

The starry night was shrouded by dark clouds.

Across the entire Nek Star, no matter where, a cold rain of blood was falling.

This made the Raven demon, which wanted to make a sound, close its beak.

When that azure-blue light stream completely fused with the Demon Card.

When new content gradually etched itself onto the blank card face.

High in the firmament, a pure white thunderbolt mixed with black exploded with a roar across this planet!!!

A new Demon Card! Right here, right now, at this very moment, in this very place!

Was born—

Ye Qiyan's fingertip touched the surface of this Demon Card, and its brand-new image also appeared before his eyes.

The front was ghastly white, the back was pure black.

On the card face, a faceless demon walked among pilgrims, its slender, sharp bone fingers stirring up waves of pale ripples.

The faceless pilgrims bowed on both sides.

Some touched with their fingertips, tears flowing like a spring.

Some bathed in this grace, transforming into piles of white bones.

Looking closely.

The path beneath the faceless demon's feet was not made of bricks or stones, but was precisely a staircase paved with these white bones.

The system's appraisal interface thus appeared.

【Demon Card · Salvation】

【Salvation: The demon is here to save you~】

【Demon: As long as you pay the price~】

【...: Formed by severing and rebirthing from the Demon Card · Aberration. From this day forward, the demon named Aberration no longer exists.】

【???: Demon? Salvation? Such a bizarre combination, such a... malicious, trap-filled, yet hopeful (?) power.

This Demon Card has transformed into its current form due to an unknown power, and influenced by this same unknown power, when you, the holder, die, your demons will never again wait for a new master like the other cards in the sequence.

Will you be the final Demon King...?

No.

You are the first, and the only, Demon Lord.

They should be grateful you chose the demons.】

【Demons, loyalty... what a strange combination.】

【XXX: Salvation: Consumes spirit energy to heal wounded beings who yearn for life. No restrictions on race, regardless of... whether it is deformed. As long as it is a living being. Of course, it must agree before treatment.】

【XXX: Demon: Any existence you heal, when you launch an attack against it, the healed injuries will erupt with a sevenfold cumulative effect. Additionally, its spirit energy upper limit is permanently halved. Upon its death, it transforms into a demon, fighting for you until it perishes.】

"A Demon Card called Salvation? The card face is weird too, the effect... a demonic healer? And a poisonous heal?"

Ye Qiyan toyed with the brand-new Demon Card in his hand, unable to suppress a wry smile.

"It does retain a bit of Aberration's original ability, transforming into a demon..."

"If there's no restriction on race, that means it can even heal mechanical lifeforms like Lisette and WALL-E?"

"Interesting. This means we won't need to keep using those fruits and vegetables from the carriage as healing medicine anymore."

"And this latter ability looks like it has plenty of room for creative application too."

Having reviewed all the information, the adventure in this Station World was also nearing its end for Ye Qiyan.

He stretched lazily, and just at that moment, Eve and Lisette, along with the others, all descended from the sky to this place.

"Master!"

Lisette was the first to anxiously run to his side, scrutinizing his entire body up and down.

"Why are you all down here? It's only been a little while. I'm fine."

Eve's rabbit ears transformed into an 'X' mark, then shifted into the number 17.

"Seventeen?"

"Yes, seventeen..."

Only after confirming Ye Qiyan was unhurt did Lisette finally return to her usual state.

"Master, we waited outside... for seventeen days."

"??"

This was, without exception, the longest period they had been separated from Ye Qiyan.

Without seeing their master, whether it was Eve, or Gluttony whose main body was left outside, they all became somewhat frenzied, slaughtering every visible Strange Species.

Not even the tiniest mosquito or insect was spared.

They attacked the seals that appeared in the Abyss. If not for the fact that their permanent bond with Ye Qiyan remained intact, Eve and the others might have already turned everything in the entire world into scorched earth, then self-destructed to accompany their master in death.

"How could it be seventeen days?"

Ye Qiyan frowned slightly.

By the most generous estimate, the time he and Red Tears had spent inside this space after entering was only about ten minutes or so. But Lisette and the others would definitely not lie.

Then... that means.

The seal Aberration placed on this space altered the flow of time to a terrifying degree... thousands of times faster?

Ye Qiyan looked at the 【Salvation】 in his hand, gently rubbing it, then tossed it behind him.

His eighth Demon Card became part of the ring.

"If seventeen days have passed outside, how long must have passed in the Wasteland? I wonder if that suddenly appearing new batch of Train Conductors managed to escape."

"Forget it, let's get out first."

"But before that, there's a chance to try using this Salvation a little."

His gaze fell on a spot not far away.

A figure tortured beyond human recognition.

A mouse-girl frozen in place by a golden hourglass.

Ding Xiuqi.

He was very suitable to become Salvation's first user.

"How to get him to agree?"

Ye Qiyan ate a White Forest Fruit while pondering slightly.

Injuries of this degree would have killed an ordinary person eight hundred times over. But as a high-level Train Conductor, the items and Modules on his person were still keeping Ding Xiuqi hanging on by his last breath, not yet dead.

To get him to agree to treatment, would he have to wake him up to say a word?

No, Ye Qiyan had a good idea.

"Do you want to live?"

He asked thus.

【Bewitchment~】

The Demon's Whisper softly echoed in the ears of the unconscious Ding Xiuqi~

His mouth opened uncontrollably, his vocal cords began to tremble, until they produced a sound belonging to a human.

"I... want..."

The so-called 'agreement' wasn't that strictly limited.

Just one word "want" was enough, or even just a thought, a desire to keep living.

An item's description is never completely exhaustive.

How to use it fully requires the holder to explore on their own.

"That Wanted Poster was pretty good, so, you owe me a favor."

The ghastly white card sequence flashed into his hand, slowly rotating.

【Demon Card · Salvation】

The demonic light named Salvation descended upon this place.
