【Task Completed: Snow White's Wish】
【Reward Received: Snow Heart Echo】
【Snow Heart Echo (Level 9)】
【Once the strongest Snow White, when slain by a human Train Conductor, condensed her heart and power into this weapon】
【Upon Equipping: Can be fused with another type of weapon, adding the following effect to the fused weapon: Echo Mana, gaining a special mana source that increases with attack speed when using this weapon】
【Once the mana source accumulates to a certain degree, gains the Snow Magic ability of the 【Snow White】.】
Worth it.
A level-nine item was no small price.
Besides, it could still be Sublimated.
If it was based on attack speed...
An image of a white pistol surfaced in Ye Qiyan's mind.
【Sky Eagle】
Although it had been reinforced a few times, its level was still low, and its effects were utterly useless against the Station Worlds he now faced. To put it bluntly, it was completely irrelevant.
But compared to Black Ebony, this gun leaned more toward high-speed attacks.
Fusing and reconstructing it with a level-nine item would save quite a bit of trouble.
With that thought, Ye Qiyan looked toward Snow White, who was standing at the entrance of the locomotive section, and a hint of amusement crept into his eyes.
This station had been a massive haul.
Even at the very end, using the 【Newcomer Invitation】 permission—which cost him nothing—he still managed to snag a level-nine item.
Huge profit.
"Get on board. Step onto this train that belongs to you, enter the Wasteland. From here on out, whatever happens will be up to you."
His mood was good, so he didn't mind adding a few more words.
"Huff..."
Snow White pressed the button to open the door.
Stepping into the train, she peered through the thin newcomer's window at Ye Qiyan's figure outside, her eyes brimming with determination.
She was just a little girl, yet at that moment, she possessed more courage than many Train Conductors.
"I will definitely become very strong! Thank you, Hero Bro! I will definitely, definitely repay you someday!"
Repayment, huh...
Ye Qiyan didn't really care about that.
After all, once she entered the Wasteland, she still had to pass the most basic ten newcomer stations. Who knew if she could even manage that?
Snow White might be a Snow White, but she didn't possess power greater than a human's.
If she encountered scorching weather, she would be even more fragile than a human.
Her only advantage was being better adapted to low-temperature environments.
Another train departed.
Ye Qiyan stretched his arms and issued the recall command to all his subordinates outside.
As the last Nano Giant Sting Bee entered the Honeycomb Carriage.
Standing inside the locomotive section, Ye Qiyan pressed the departure button on the system interface.
The void manifested, and the tracks extended.
When perhaps the final train whistle of this Station World for the day sounded.
When his train crossed the all-too-familiar void.
The scene outside the train windows changed.
Ye Qiyan returned to the Wasteland.
He had left Station 44, the Wish Prayer Kingdom.
This Station World, which hadn't taken too much time, had left a fairly deep impression on him.
He sorted through his gains a little.
First, the Train Coins—a thousand Train Coins were more than enough for another train upgrade.
Even if they weren't, adding the two lifespan frogs would probably net him a few hundred more Train Coins. Upgrade, definitely enough.
As for the various other items, there was no need to say more; they would all be Sublimated one by one.
But there was one more thing.
"Oh? Eve, why did you bring this sword back?"
Looking at the gear sword crafted using the 【Artifice Command】 that Eve had brought before him, Ye Qiyan was a bit surprised.
"This crude piece of work counts as an item?"
【Ye Qiyan's Artifice Gear Sword (Level 0)】
【Forged by Ye Qiyan, the 【Lord of Absolute Supremacy】, in the Wish Prayer Kingdom. Originally just a temporary weapon, but because it was used to slay a High-Level Train Conductor, it gained its own 【Story】 and 【Meaning】.】
【Ability: None】
【Note: Only 【Lord of Absolute Supremacy】 Ye Qiyan can use it】
"Level 0? What the hell? Has there ever been a level-0 item before? System, explain?"
【Ding dong. Level 0 items cannot be reinforced through strengthening items. They evolve through 【Story】 and 【Meaning】 as you progress, with a certain probability of gaining power from your Station World experiences. This type of weapon's level cannot be increased.】
"So, it's a growth-type weapon?"
【Ding~】
"Weird stuff... Well, whatever, since we've brought it back, I'll keep it for now."
"As for Sublimation... huh, potential is also zero?"
【Ding dong. Detected special concept: 【Potential】】
【Updating Level 0 weapon】
【A Level 0 weapon's potential can increase with a certain probability as your Station World experiences accumulate.】
"Well, that's not bad."
Ye Qiyan stuck the gear sword into the ground.
It was just a casually made thing, and weak at that, but since it was something that hadn't appeared before, he could only look forward to what might happen later.
"Speaking of which, aren't I accumulating too many sword-type weapons?"
From Moon Veil, to Deceitful Play, and now this gear sword.
And while the Tear-Engraving Sword was Red Tears's weapon, as long as Red Tears was bonded with him, it could also be counted as one of his.
That made four...
He clearly preferred using guns.
"But it's fine. At least I got an item that can strengthen guns from the last station. Oh, right, and there was a GT-series Blueprint from the Customer Service lady at the black market..."
"Thinking about it this way, this station's haul was really substantial."
Ye Qiyan chuckled, taking Lisette and WALL-E back to the Climate-Controlled Carriage. He was about to open the black market and chat with the Customer Service lady for a bit.
When the friend chat notification chimed softly.
The person sending the message was Zhu Xingshu.
Ye Qiyan leaned against the window, squinting slightly at the name on the Light Screen.
"This Charlatan... looks like her plan is complete too."
He pulled up the private chat interface, where Zhu Xingshu had sent a Chibi-style anime emoticon of herself, grinning.
["Yay~ I knew Bro Ye would win, hehe. So, what happened in that world? Can you tell me about it?"]
Ye Qiyan raised an eyebrow slightly.
["Don't pretend. Are you telling me you don't know what happened in that world?"]
["I don't! I really don't. That world was completely sealed the moment the Wish War started a day ago. All external observation was invalid. It only just now recovered. I only know the city was pretty much destroyed. How strange—even my Astrolabe couldn't find the source of the problem. Ah~ whatever. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. But anyway... hehe, I managed to chip away at a certain permission in the train system that that annoying golden Mr. Order holds. From today on, in the Wasteland and the Station Worlds, special upgrade items for levels 17 and 18 will have increased drop rates in treasure chests. As long as you work hard, move forward, and find chests, it'll definitely be easier than trading resources with those freedom-deprived Guilds. What do you think, Bro Ye? I did a good thing, right?"]
["So, what Card Sequence did you get?"]
["None~ I just used my Fate to make a bit of backlash happen to Mr. Order with an Order Card called 【Law】. Just a tiny bit~ hehe."]
