Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!
Chapter 538: Long Time No See, Ye QiyanWhat will the outcome be?
Fengfeng ultimately gave up on raising the bet further, merely placing a chip toward the spirit-state young man's direction.
However, the one-eyed pirate inside the sealed space did not negate the result of this round just because more chips were bet against him.
When the spirit-state young man walked out with a gloomy face alongside the one-eyed pirate who was laughing heartily.
The number of chips changed once again.
Mo Shi: 51
Fengfeng: 33
One-eyed Pirate: 31
Spirit-state Young Man: 30
That's right. The spirit-state young man who participated in the game failed but did not lose more chips because of it. Instead, it was the three people outside whose chip counts underwent a dramatic change.
This was the essence of this "Rock-Paper-Scissors Game".
The ones truly engaged in the contest were never just the two inside the sealed space.
The human heart is hard to fathom.
The so-called alliance shattered into pieces after a single failure.
The one-eyed pirate did not choose to negate as Fengfeng and the others had predicted, but instead chose not to think at all, relying purely on instinct to play this game of rock-paper-scissors.
Therefore, he won.
"You guessed it long ago?"
Fengfeng pursed her lips, looking puzzled at Mo Shi, who was still staring at the surveillance camera feed.
"Guessed what?"
"Guessed that he wouldn't negate the result? Regardless of winning or losing?"
"No, I didn't."
"Then how did you dare..."
"Because it was interesting~"
Mo Shi leaned closer to the camera, the cross shapes in her eyes seemingly about to reflect the figures in the monitoring room.
In the subsequent rounds, no one talked about forming alliances anymore.
Several hours passed, and the first trial's results concluded with Mo Shi's chips reaching 88.
That spirit-state young man, who initially wanted to eliminate the one-eyed pirate, instead became the first one eliminated, having lost all his chips.
He was filled with unwillingness, yet utterly helpless, forcibly sealed into that enclosed space by the power of the Game Card, letting out a miserable, piercing scream.
Did he die?
Fengfeng thought with a heavy heart.
————
"Brother Qiyan, how was that scream? Pretty realistic, right?"
Zhao Lin returned to the monitoring room carrying a tape recorder.
The so-called death penalty was completely just a recording used to intimidate people and enhance the atmosphere. That spirit-state young man was locked in the space and would be released by Zhao Lin once all three trials were over.
"Start the second one."
"Okay."
The second trial was a product combining the "Game Card·Heart's Bloom Lock" with the station platform space rules.
This trial wasn't as complicated as the first. It was simply betting to enter the Heart's Bloom Lock's theater, facing the thing one least wanted to face in their heart. Whoever woke up first would get fifty percent of everyone's bets, the second would get thirty percent, the third ten percent, and the fourth would get nothing.
And each person had to bet at least 5 chips.
What came as no surprise to Ye Qiyan was that the moment they entered the theater.
The girl named Mo Shi detached herself from it, completely unaffected by the Heart's Bloom Lock.
If Zhao Lin released its power fully, she could completely trap a high-level monster inside forever, until it sank into silence amidst endless cycles of desire and pain.
Indeed, she was special.
"Hmm... can't see it. All my previous abilities are sealed. Well~ it's an agreement after all~"
Mo Shi muttered a few words, simply picked up a camera, and waved at it.
"Want to come out and play together? It must be boring just watching from behind all the time~"
"Oh right, the trial content you created is very interesting, much more fun than the one I encountered at the last station. Clearly, it's the same kind of power~"
She licked her lips, pulled out a small black sphere from her clothes.
Inside that sphere, a constantly trembling silver-white card was revealed to the camera.
"This one, want to gamble? You must have someone who wants it too."
【Game Card·Russian Roulette】
It once belonged to Laine's Card Sequence. Now, it was actually being taken out just like that by a novice Train Conductor.
In the cafe, Ye Qiyan looked thoughtfully at the girl on the screen.
"So she's the one who defeated Laine. What a coincidence."
Perhaps this trial should be terminated. Or perhaps, a new method was needed.
"Zhao Lin."
"Brother Qiyan?"
"How's the luck?"
Zhao Lin blinked, a beautiful aura named Luck swirling around her~
With a smile on her face, she answered softly:
"It's good luck."
If it's good luck, then there's no problem.
————
"Hmm? You really appeared... oh~?"
Mo Shi put down the camera she had nearly bitten through, looking up toward the direction of the approaching footsteps.
The moment she saw Ye Qiyan, the cross-shaped light stars in her eyes instantly erupted with a brilliant black light.
Before Zhao Lin, walking in front, could even open her mouth to say something with her feigned authoritative demeanor, Mo Shi's body transformed into a shadow, passed Zhao Lin, and arrived directly in front of Ye Qiyan.
"Long time no see, Ye Qiyan. You're still so dazzling, hmm! Dazzling enough to blind me, hehe. This time, you have eyes~"
"?"
Several large question marks appeared on Zhao Lin's forehead as she stood frozen in place.
What did she just hear?
A novice Train Conductor, called out Brother Qiyan's name?
And from the tone, the two seemed very familiar?
Hum~
A soft hum. Red Tears, who had been silently following beside Ye Qiyan, drew the Tear-Engraving Sword and placed it in front of Mo Shi.
Mo Shi stopped, raising her hands with a smile.
"I surrender, I surrender, Senior Qiyan~ Don't let the demon by your side bully me, okay? I really want to live until the very end."
Ye Qiyan did not tell Red Tears to put away the sword. Because, from this unchanged mouth and that long tongue sticking out, he already had a rough idea of who this person was, or who they were related to.
"Who are you?"
Even with a guess, he still asked this question.
【Defiance × Bewitchment】
Ask a question, and you shall receive an answer.
"My name is Mo Shi~ Also...【%*&】"
Zzz... zzzap...
Zhao Lin covered her ears. She couldn't make out what the girl said at the end.
Ye Qiyan couldn't either, but he clearly understood the meaning of that strange sound.
【Death——】
He was Death, the master of the Death Realm, the pinnacle of the Wasteland Species. Then... could He also be the 【True God】 who brings about the End?
"A perfectly good True God not doing your job, coming to a novice station to smurf, Death... ma'am? Do you find this very interesting?"
The phantom of the Ancient Battlefield gradually solidified around Red Tears.
The moment Ye Qiyan gave the order, she would directly draw her sword and strike.
【Death】, or rather Mo Shi, nodded with a smile.
"Of course it is~ Also, I am Mo Shi now, and have nothing to do with Death. The one who met you before was me, but the one meeting you now is the new me. I and I are not the same. Death is Death, Mo Shi is Mo Shi.
Hehe, the current me is the novice Train Conductor Mo Shi from the human side. Hmm, perhaps~ I will continue to be in the future. After all, my wish is to live until the very last moment~ Even Death itself must die before I do~"
