Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

【"Why me? Besides, we're not exactly that close. Your guild has plenty of talent—there's no reason it should fall to me."】

Ye Qiyan didn't rush to ask about the contents of this trade. He took a bite of the White Forest Fruit and leisurely typed out words on the Light Screen.

Although Shangguan Yingxue was among the earlier additions to his Friends List, if the two of them really had to talk about any connection...

Aside from some trades in the first ten stations, Ye Qiyan could barely recall this person at all.

So, why would she guess that his strength was impressive?

There was no reason for that.

Unless... Zhao Lin?

【"Miss Zhao Lin—she's incredibly strong. I've seen her a few times, and her power far surpasses everyone in the guild. I occasionally trade with her and discuss matters about the sectors. Sometimes, we talk about the old rankings, and she always says she's not the strongest. Even among those who joined the guild recently, I don't think anyone is stronger than her. I can tell she's not being modest—there really is someone stronger than her in this sector. That person is you, right?"】

To make such a judgment from just a few words by Zhao Lin—this person wasn't stupid.

Ye Qiyan didn't deny it, because he had no intention of confirming it either.

【"Shouldn't you first ask what the trade is about? For a guild in the city to grow, it needs a station world as a stronghold. We found a level-6 station, and in that world, there are monsters that feed on humans. Zhao An planned to take the new guild members there together, but the senior members only joined for upgrade materials, to be honest. Right now, the guild's public leader is Zhao An, but among the newcomers, there's a man named Daxim who's scheming to seize control of the guild. If Zhao An can't take this station world as the guild's base this time, he'll likely lose his position as president. Of course, I don't care about his presidency—what I care about is my vice presidency. I need this position to access various resources more easily. Because this is an internal power struggle within the guild, he doesn't trust the newly joined Train Conductors. That's why he thought of seeking help from the original E-3 sector people to join this operation."】

Scanning through this long string of messages, Ye Qiyan now understood the background.

But clearly, he couldn't care less.

【"So, what can you offer?"】

【"100 Train Coins!"】

【"Too little."】

A hundred Train Coins? To him, just casually entering a level-9 station and killing some monsters would net him more from selling the dropped materials and equipment.

Sure, it would take a bit more time and effort, but a measly level-6 station?

That was even less interesting.

【"This..."】

Shangguan Yingxue hadn't expected Ye Qiyan to respond like that.

A hundred Train Coins was no small amount to her.

Her Train Level had barely reached level 8, relying on her vice president position to get resources. Each time she upgraded, the options cost at most one or two hundred coins, and she had to carefully pick the most important ones.

But judging by Ye Qiyan's reply, to this person, a hundred Train Coins weren't even worth his involvement?

Shangguan Yingxue couldn't understand.

It felt like a frog at the bottom of a well looking up at the sky, catching a glimpse of a giant who had come to fetch water.

【"A hundred is really not little... We still need to distribute some Train Coins to others..."】

【"Whatever. I have things to do."】

After typing these two words, Ye Qiyan prepared to close the interface.

But back at the guild's stronghold, Shangguan Yingxue suddenly felt a flash of panic in her mind.

For some reason, she felt that if she gave up on trading with this Ye Qiyan, she would definitely regret it.

So, she anxiously typed a line on the Light Screen and sent it.

【"No, wait... How about 200? No... 260? That's the limit I can offer. I'll give you all the Train Coins needed for this operation, but you'll be the only participant. Do you... agree?"】

Two hundred and sixty Train Coins to visit a level-6 station world—that was acceptable.

【"Just need to deal with the monsters in that station world, right?"】

【"Yes. The time is three days from now. I'll send you the coordinates right away."】

An email arrived.

Inside, it held the coordinates of a station world.

【Red Maple Valley (Level-6 Hunting Platform) Coordinate Node】

A Hunting Platform.

It had been a while.

Ye Qiyan didn't hesitate and directly used the coordinates.

【Ding-dong——】

【Detected that you are about to enter a Low-Level Station】

【Now running assessment...】

【You have entered a high-level station, but your Train Level meets the conditions for entering a Low-Level Station.】

【Ding... Reassessing...】

【Assessment successful. Entering a level-6 station costs 3 Train Coins.】

【Please note: Once your Train Level exceeds 20, entering stations below level 8 requires a special level concealment device.】

"Oh, I remember the last level-5 station I entered cost 5 Train Coins—so the higher the level, the lower the cost?"

Ye Qiyan took out three Train Coins that vanished from his hand, and at that moment, the node began to burn.

The tracks extended, and the Void manifested.

【Exclusive Module, Crossroads of Fate, activated】

【Your Forty-Fifth Station has been selected: Red Maple Valley】

【Station 1: Entrance to Red Maple Valley】

【Station 2: Before the Red Maple Treant King】

"Oh, looks like I have to pick the second one now."

Ye Qiyan chuckled as he looked at the name of the second option.

【Station selection complete】

【Please sit tight and hold on. The Train is about to enter your Forty-Fifth Station: Red Maple Valley】

【This Station: Pleasant scenery, suitable for rest】

Crossing the Void, accompanied by the roar of the Train.

Beyond the train window, the scene instantly shifted from the Wasteland to a world blanketed in red maple leaves.

And just outside the Train, a massive red tree suddenly opened its eyes and extended a gigantic branch to whip at the carriage.

"Don't be so impatient."

【Wealth Protective Barrier】 activated.

Ye Qiyan shook his head and patted WALL-E, who was itching to leap out.

"At least let WALL-E get moving before you die. Alright, WALL-E, stay safe."

WALL-E raised its Mechanical Claw and clapped it against Ye Qiyan's hand.

As its figure vanished among the maple leaves, Ye Qiyan stepped out of the Train and looked at the massive treant frantically pounding on the Wealth Protective Barrier without a single crack forming. He smiled faintly.

"The scenery here really is nice. Perfect for a maple-tree barbecue."

He looked around.

More and more Red Maple Treants were closing in on his Train.

Ye Qiyan smiled faintly and casually snapped his fingers.

"Quite a lot of monsters."

The command was issued, and the Armament Hangar opened.

Mech-soldiers, launch into action.

"In short, leave none alive."
