Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

【Floating Light Battle Shield (Level 10)】

【Consumes stamina to defend against non-mystic attacks】

"It's a bit average, really quite shabby."

For something that had lived who knows how many years, the defensive shield it brought out was only Level 10.

Although it was an unexpected gain, it was honestly a bit disappointing.

Compared to his Wandering Star Holy Sigil, this shield's capability was far inferior.

Even if Sublimated, it probably wouldn't amount to much.

"But it is pretty tough, though."

Eve's attack in Mode · Overdrive Star had sent the shield flying, yet there wasn't a single scratch on it.

At the end of the day, that guy was just too arrogant.

From start to finish, he never saw Ye Qiyan as a real opponent.

"If I could recycle it into materials... well, forget it. I'll put it away for now and deal with it later."

The shield was stored into the spatial storage, and his gaze shifted to another direction.

The Guards of the Nation on Ships had finally arrived, belatedly.

At their head was a bald, tall, middle-aged man who looked thoroughly weathered.

"Next, it's your turn, huh."

Eve's Targeting Ring began to materialize beneath the feet of these Guards.

But she didn't immediately attack.

Unlike that golden-haired man from earlier, these people didn't harbor that kind of intense malice toward her master.

At most, just a bit of vigilance.

Although Eve was equally displeased by this, since she was by her master's side, she wouldn't open fire without his command.

"Friend, may I ask what exactly you were doing just now?"

The middle-aged man jumped down from his aircraft.

He glanced at Ye Qiyan's appearance, then at Eve and Lisette beside him, a flicker of surprise in his heart.

["Such intense mechanical power, and this energy fluctuation... tsk, not simple at all."]

Ye Qiyan stroked the agitated Eve and pointed at the area she had blown to pieces.

"Oh, just the explosion that guy caused. You can go track him down."

【Demon Card · Bewitchment】

Although it was just a casual remark from Ye Qiyan.

If you really thought about it, it wasn't hard to guess—that golden-haired guy was almost certainly connected to the nearby explosion.

Whether he actually did it?

That didn't matter.

What mattered was.

Once he said that, the Nation on Ships would definitely search for that man's trail.

And whether they could find him? That wasn't Ye Qiyan's concern either.

"I see. Thank you for your assistance. I am Aleph, captain of the First Guard Unit on the Alphart. Once we apprehend that person, you will receive a reward."

"You're welcome."

Aleph led his Guards onward toward the explosion.

Even though Zhao Xi had already rescued most of the survivors, as the official organization of the Nation on Ships, if they had to rely solely on an outsider for rescue, what purpose would they serve?

The Alphart imposed a one-day lockdown.

But soon, the next day, the Guard arrested a large number of ordinary people who had taken to the streets to protest.

Based on interrogation results, these recent protests had been funded and massively organized by a mysterious wealthy figure.

These people harbored extreme Envy and Hatred toward Train Conductors.

That level of hatred couldn't be explained by simple brainwashing.

In the end, within just half a day, these people became floating space debris in the cosmos.

The lockdown that had lasted less than half a day was lifted as well.

The Nation on Ships returned to peace and "freedom."

But in the following days, the protests from ordinary people didn't decrease; instead, they gradually increased.

Numerous conflicts between Train Conductors and ordinary civilians had already broken out.

Although only the Train Conductors could ever be the victors, if this continued, the Nation on Ships would make the Conductors dissatisfied. The result of that dissatisfaction would be fewer visits to the Nation on Ships.

This would severely cut into the Nation on Ships' tax revenue.

But again.

Ye Qiyan didn't care about any of that.

He was here to have fun.

Over the next few days, no further incidents occurred.

With the specific rules and schedule of the Guild Tournament announced, and the news that star Train Conductors 【Magical Girl · Stacia】 and 【Super Diva · Alice】 would both come here to hold a concert,

And that Suoluo City's Grand Judge Zhao Xi would attend the Guild Tournament as a special guest—all of these announcements drove the explosion completely from people's memories.

Ye Qiyan continued his travels, not only on the Alphart.

The other three starships were each no smaller than a single layer of Suoluo City.

Now, with only two days remaining until the Guild Tournament countdown.

He was leisurely soaking in this sacred hot spring.

The sacred water was real, said to come from some Level 11 Station World.

Rumor had it that soaking in it just once could increase a person's stamina cap by ten points.

Ye Qiyan verified this.

It was complete bullshit.

But it was indeed very comfortable.

Beep beep—

The system's prompt tone rang in his ear.

Ye Qiyan set down his wine glass and called up the Light Screen.

The black market interface automatically opened.

Customer Service lady Ailei's voice came through.

["Member, that party wants to proceed with the transaction early. What do you think?"]

["Reason? Since it was agreed within ten days, even if I drag it to the last minute, it's not my problem, right."]

["Indeed, but according to the buyer's information, the next few days are busier than they originally planned. If possible, they'd prefer to complete the transaction tomorrow. Otherwise, it will be difficult to find time later, so..."]

["Fine."]

It was about time anyway. Let's finish the transaction first.

Then, take a look at the Guild Tournament and the concert. After that, this city trip would end safely.

Just pretend the other day never happened. Everything stable, stable~

"Heh."

That joking thought came to an end.

Ye Qiyan sank into the water, and all sounds were instantly cut off.

A faint trace of azure flickered in his eyes, his mind continuously mulling over the events of the past few days.

An explosion like that couldn't happen without a reason.

Now that the explosion had occurred, the result the instigator wanted to bring about must also be connected to it.

Just like in a play—if a gun appears in the first act, it will definitely go off in some later act.

These days of calm were merely the peace before the storm.

If a storm was about to sweep through this world.

Then this very moment was the absolute eye of that storm.

When it begins to move again.

Everything might be blown to pieces.

"The Guild Tournament, and the concert, huh."
