Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

The steam whistle sounded.

Chloe ultimately chose to become a Train Conductor.

She yearned to grow stronger.

Strong enough to not feel utterly powerless when facing danger and protecting the weak.

And so, she stepped onto the Train, entered the Wasteland, and began her own Novice Ten Stations.

"Mr. Ye..."

Chloe's Friends List was completely empty.

Her mind was filled entirely with the image of Ye Qiyan.

"Someday, I will find you."

Several days later.

Night.

On a clean hillside in the wilderness outside the Blackstone Fortress.

Ye Qiyan, who was eating barbecue and drinking beer, heard these two dings and immediately took out the Judge, using its ability.

[Arrest]

A diamond-shaped light surged forth.

The cube-like robot WALL-E was pulled back by a chain.

"WALL-E, welcome home."

Ye Qiyan patted WALL-E's iron head, and only after seeing it had no injuries did he show a smile.

"~~"

WALL-E happily waved its Mechanical Claw, handing him something shaped like a book.

This was the treasure WALL-E had found.

"Thanks, you worked hard."

Void electricity, condensed by the Sky-Resonant Thunder Eagle, transformed into a chicken leg made of plasma. This was WALL-E's favorite food, and also the reward Ye Qiyan had specially thought of for it.

Although, he felt it still wasn't quite enough.

Taking the book, Ye Qiyan finally shifted his gaze from WALL-E to the appraisal Light Screen before him.

[Resonance·Treasure Chest (Level 9)]

"A treasure chest with a prefix?"

Although Ye Qiyan was slightly surprised, it was only a little.

Since his Sublimation could add prefixes to treasure chests, it wasn't too difficult to understand that a chest itself could appear with a prefix.

However, Resonance? What did that mean?

[After opening this chest, obtain 2 Level 9 items related to [Elemental Resonance]]

Only items, and confirmed to be two Level 9 ones.

Compared to the Level 9 chests he had opened before, this one had relatively more stable output.

"Let's try Sublimating it first."

His fingertips brushed, and Sublimation activated.

Accompanied by that familiar azure blue envelopment, the cover of this thick, book-shaped treasure chest underwent subtle changes.

[Stamina: 320→100] [Spirit: 340→80]

[Resonance·Treasure Chest (Level 9) → Overlimit Resonance·Treasure Chest (Level 9)]

[After opening, obtain one item from the [Limit·Elemental Overclocking] series (Level 9)]

"The quantity decreased?"

It consumed a full 480 points of his stats. Not only did the contents of this Level 9 chest not increase, but they actually changed from a stable two items to just one.

This was the first time something like this had happened.

"Changing two Level 9 items into one... so this single Level 9 item is the combined value of the two from the previous chest? No... it should be even stronger, after all, it used so many of my stats..."

There are also strong and weak Level 9s.

Just like how the Steam King at Level 8 was much stronger than a single Endless Mech, also at Level 8.

This really piqued Ye Qiyan's curiosity.

He raised his hand, turned the page, and opened the chest.

[Open]

[Congratulations! You have obtained [Overlimit·Elemental Overclocking·Teleportation Ban! (Level 9)]]

[After equipping this item, consume Spirit Power to prohibit all units within a certain spatial range from using [Movement] abilities]

"Whoa, spatial element counts as an element too? And this thing's ability... is pretty interesting."

Banning movement, seems pretty good. This [Movement] refers to space-jumping type abilities.

Like his [Sky-Plundering Wings], for example.

Ye Qiyan tried it out a bit. The ability was indeed banned, but it wasn't a complete prohibition of use. If one used some means, like a tool such as the [Spell-Breaking Sigil], one could still break the space it enveloped.

Or, just like that short-statured Grand Judge Zhao Xi, one could simply jump fast and run far, directly going somewhere else.

But regardless, as a functional-type item, it would always play its role at unexpected times.

"Not bad, might come in handy sometime."

Ye Qiyan nodded in satisfaction and stored it in his Storage Unit.

Sublimation wasn't urgent.

After all, it was a Level 9 item, requiring relatively more Stamina and Spirit. It wouldn't be too late to consider it after he returned to the Wasteland.

WALL-E had returned, the treasure was obtained.

Then, it was time to leave.

"Feels like I've been here for quite a while~"

The Train completed its preparations. Accompanied by Lisette, Ye Qiyan sat in his exclusive seat in the locomotive section, brought up the system interface, and pressed that option.

[Depart Station]

"Toot!!"

A clear, loud steam whistle echoed through the area.

The pitch-black tracks stretched forward, and distorted void appeared ahead.

The Wheels moved forward, gradually accelerating.

The moment they passed through the void, the scene outside the train window once again transformed into that most familiar sight, the Endless Wasteland.

[Ding-dong!]

[You have new mail, please check]

"Whew..."

The System's notification sound came from the broadcast.

Ye Qiyan stretched lazily, yawning as he returned to the Climate-Controlled Carriage used for resting.

These consecutive stations always seemed to bring all sorts of unexpected troubles.

Starting from that great battle in the City of Eternal Night, then later obtaining Salvation, becoming a Trial Administrator for new Train Conductors, and not long ago, fighting that noob operator's the Abyss.

Was everything that happened really something a Train Conductor should encounter so frequently?

But he couldn't blame anyone else, because every time before entering a Station World, it was his own choice.

And, if in the next station, his two-option Station Worlds still included a special station like The Nation of Odd Laws...

Would Ye Qiyan choose not to go?

No~

He would choose the one that looked more interesting~

"Let's claim the rewards for slaying gods first. They were two C-grade Gods, after all."

Lying on the bed, he took out that Order Card named [Sloth] and hung it by the bedhead, planning to use it as a little night light to aid sleep~

Then, he opened the mailbox. Inside, there were two emails.

[Kamaitachi Mechanical Core]

[After equipping to any mechanical lifeform, can provide it with suitable equipment. This equipment possesses the Kamaitachi's wind blade cutting ability.]

[Can resonate with other Divine Cores]

A familiar feeling. Most things dropped by C-grade Gods were like this. The Scoundrel might get another shield, huh.

More importantly was the next email.

Ye Qiyan had chosen to have the Plague Rat God's power transformed by the System not into a core, but into a consumable item.

[Vaccine·Rat]

[After use, summon an extremely large number of vaccine rats. They will enter various parts of the world through various means, reproduce, and survive in the world as ordinary rats until... the plague descends.]

[Note: What the rats bring is actually not plague, but life-saving vaccines?]

[Usage Count: 2/2]
