Just do it.
He had enough Train Coins on hand anyway.
Counting the Great Dragon Card Train Coins he had accumulated over these days, the total had already reached around 3,900 coins.
Ye Qiyan could hardly wait to try it.
But before that, he still needed to make some preparations.
Upgrading the train through Sublimation obviously could not be seen by others.
So a relatively quiet place was necessary.
Combine that with his Arrogance, and he could ensure the Sublimation would not be noticed by anyone.
That place was not hard to find.
There were several helipads used for landing helicopters.
The area was about half the size of a soccer field.
Ye Qiyan went up to the top floor and, before midnight, took the train out of the Matrix.
He also placed the Under Construction · Dynamic Barricade at the entrance to the rooftop.
After finishing that basic preparation, he opened the train door and walked inside.
He went to the locomotive section, looked at that all-too-familiar platform, and rubbed his hands.
“It’s my first time performing Sublimation in the city, hehe.”
He took a deep breath.
The expression on his face gradually calmed.
He snapped his fingers, and a card from the Card Sequence appeared in his hand.
Demon Card · Arrogance
An invisible force spread outward.
From this moment on, no one would direct their attention toward this rooftop.
Arrogance is like the sun.
The sun must not be looked at directly.
Even if this sun was full of malice and cold.
“Then...”
“Begin.”
Deep breath.
He reached out and touched the platform, whispering softly.
“Sublimation.”
Those two short words carried incomparable charm.
Sublimate, advance!!
Black tracks extended forward.
Module · Station Startup
The train moved forward slowly and gradually accelerated.
Soon, it reached the edge of the rooftop.
The rails sloped downward, the train surged ahead.
No hesitation, no panic.
The train even left the predetermined rails.
Fall?!
No.
This was advancing!
Accelerate! Accelerate! Accelerate!!!
Outside the hotel’s high-rise, on the ground below, a piece of the void that all Train Conductors knew appeared; he was below, ahead of the pure white train.
At the very moment the locomotive section was about to drop to the ground, its speed also reached its absolute peak!
The train roared!
It refused to complete its brand-new Sublimation in this tiny world!
It couldn’t accept being unable to chase its master!
It could not accept stasis!
So!
It pierced through the void!
Silent whispers vanished in an instant!
The scene outside the windows turned in a flash into the Endless Wasteland that Ye Qiyan knew best!
And the moment the train departed.
On the Alphart, many people’s gazes finally shifted to that hotel building.
What did they see?
They saw a black track spreading along the building’s exterior?
They saw the building’s glass and walls shatter to the delayed thunderous roar.
People were stunned, confused, bewildered.
But some felt different emotions.
“That’s the mark of a Great Dragon! Sancho friend! We’ve seen a Great Dragon again!”
“Don Quixote sir, that’s a train.”
“No, that is a Great Dragon, but it’s not an evil Great Dragon, haha, too bad I didn’t notice earlier?”
—
Pearl Light Arena.
Mo Shi stayed inside her train, her eyes shining.
“What a dazzling light, and it’s the power of Arrogance? Now even I am being affected, though I’m a bit far away... but...”
She hugged herself and trembled slightly.
That was an excited, joyful trembling.
“How wonderful~ Becoming a Train Conductor is really great~”
—
How many eyes had turned toward that area?
A lot. Very many.
But no one knew who had done it.
Because of Ye Qiyan’s Arrogance.
At this moment, the very instigator opened his eyes.
Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!
The train roared.
All boost modes except Surpass the Stars activated!
The train’s speed began to surge furiously!
The Super Imminent Demise Drill unfolded!
Those monsters trying to block his progress all became fuel for acceleration!
Monsters in the sky were pulled from the firmament by Train Armament · Airspace Purge.
An even more intense wave of monsters rushed forward crazily than the last time.
Why did they want to stop Ye Qiyan’s train from continuing its Sublimation?
Ye Qiyan didn’t know.
But...
It didn’t matter.
Whoever they were, come at me as much as you want.
Let everything turn into fuel!
Ding ding ding ding——!
A cheerful, joyful system broadcast rang out.

Detected Train Conductor ID: E-3-1102: Ye Qiyan detached from the station for unknown reasons, please choose whether to continue with the Adventure Assault. If you choose to continue, a new path to re-enter the station will be opened for you! In addition, your exclusive module: Crossroads of Fate will be activated!
It succeeded.
Just as he expected!
Ye Qiyan grinned.
His gaze fell on his personal stats.
Stamina: 350→170 Spirit: 400→10
“So it’s exactly the same as last time, only five hundred seventy points lost, but... is it because it consumed more Spirit?”
He could feel an unknown enhancement once his Spirit reached four hundred points; that enhancement even moderately affected the Sublimation.
“Heh heh, it worked as before in the arena; because I left the Station World while Sublimating, I can re-enter the station. But this time, they even gave me a choice?
Hey, System, you’re getting more humane, huh, or have I become stronger than before?”
The System did not respond.
“Tch, never mind if you won’t answer that. But were city worlds considered Station Worlds? If so, why can’t WALL-E do treasure searches?”
This time, the System answered his question.
“City worlds are a type of Wasteland world. When established, they exchanged permissions with the train system, receiving the train system’s protection while losing the concept of a Station World.”
“So every time you get blocked outside, it’s equivalent to the shelter disappearing, which is why WALL-E can perform treasure searches. Tsk tsk tsk, System, will such temporary permission to remove shelter appear in the upgrade options?”
“Yes, all permissions of the train system will be sold to the Train Conductor through upgrade options, but your current total Train Coins are insufficient to purchase them. Please, work hard to earn money.”
