Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

"Pay more? What does money mean? Train Coins? I don't have a single one of those, although I don't understand why such a thing as Train Coins even exists—even my ability can't transform them into Abyss creations."

"Items, equipment, or abilities—are you expecting me to go fight those Supreme Gods with nothing? After all, if even the mighty Abyss can't solve this problem, then as a mere human, I'll definitely have a harder time."

"Oh... right, after all, even I can't... no! Who said I can't win? I just—!"

The Abyss grew agitated again.

"Fine, one item. Make it a strong one. Otherwise, find someone else to do this."

"Oh..."

The door to the Abyss Realm trembled slightly.

The [Abyss] itself, on the other side, stared at its remaining collection for a long time, hesitating, before finally, with great reluctance, sending one of them out through the door.

"This... take it..."

Red Tears drew her sword to intercept it and reached out to touch it.

The cube slowly unfolded, revealing the item hidden within.

It was a fish sealed inside a stone pillar.

The System's appraisal light screen appeared the moment she touched it.

[Stone Temperance (Level 12)]

[Ability: Stasis of divine faith, preventing the flow of divinity]

"This should be enough to restrain those lowly divine monsters! How about it, human? My stuff is impressive, right?"

Ye Qiyan silently stored the item into his Storage Space, then sighed and shook his head.

"It's not a great item, but fine—who can say no to a soft-hearted person like me who hates seeing others get bullied? Even for you, the Abyss who once nearly captured me, I'll still help if I can."

"No, not great?"

The Abyss fell into confusion.

"Of course, just a measly Level 12 item. It might not even restrict them for long~"

"..."

"Alright, don't overthink it. It's fine. You've lost a lot after all. When you gather something suitable later, you can give it to me then."

"Oh... so this is human kindness? I really do like you all. Thank you, Ye Qiyan. But..."

Ye Qiyan's gaze was ice-cold, yet a smile lingered on his face.

"But what? I've already decided to help you, and you still won't share more information? In that case, find someone else."

"No, no, that's not it! I just... under the agreement I made with your System... for a long time now, I can't just grab whatever I want anymore. I have to... slowly search for things..."

Hmm?

Slowly search?

Ye Qiyan sensed something off.

"Well then, how about this, Ye Qiyan? Take this."

The System's voice echoed in Ye Qiyan's ears.

[Beep beep—]

[You have received a new friend request]

[Applicant]

[Train Conductor: (Unnamed)]

[Number: A-0-1]

[Accept?]

[Yes/No]

"......"

Now Ye Qiyan knew where that strange feeling came from.

He silently stared at the System's light screen.

The screen subtly shifted out of his line of sight, but Ye Qiyan reached out with his finger and pulled it directly in front of him.

So that's how it is~

He knew the System wouldn't help the Abyss out of the goodness of its heart.

Looks like it was because [Death] had become a Train Conductor, giving the System itself new inspiration.

Now, it had managed to trick a [True God] into becoming one of the Train Conductors.

"Tsk tsk tsk, looks like I'm still too conservative. The System really knows how to play."

[Ding dong~]

[Miatira!]

"Ye Qiyan?"

"Nothing. But didn't you say you wouldn't leave your home? Becoming a Train Conductor means riding the Train and entering the Station Worlds in the Wasteland."

"Yeah, I'll just seal my main body and the Abyss Realm completely! That way, no one from outside can get in. As for becoming a Train Conductor, while it is me, it's only my spirit and soul.

As for a body, I'll just use one of my collection pieces. As long as I put my spirit and soul inside, I can ride that train and hit the road. By the way, want to take a look?"

The door to the Abyss Realm rippled once more.

From within, a petite girl with a single ponytail, hollow eyes, and blue hair slowly walked out.

"What do you think of this body?

Although I don't know why your System recommended this particular one for me.

But it doesn't matter.

Those annoying inferior gods scattered all my collection pieces across many worlds. Now that I'm a Train Conductor, I can collect them myself..."

Ye Qiyan paid no attention to the Abyss's muttering.

He only locked eyes with those hollow pupils, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers lightly.

[Defiance × Bewitchment]

This time, the target was the girl who had been transformed into an Abyss lifeform.

In a calm voice, he directed a question at the girl, who should have been incapable of any response.

"Who... are you?"

A flicker of light passed through the girl's hollow gaze. She opened her mouth slightly, but in the end, said nothing.

"Who am I? I'm the Abyss? Who else could I be? What a strange question."

A faint smile curled at the corner of Ye Qiyan's lips.

He looked toward the door.

It seemed he had underestimated the System.

For beings that were not Train Conductors.

The System showed no mercy.

This body still possessed its own will. In fact, Ye Qiyan suspected this woman might have been a Train Conductor from long ago.

What would happen if the Abyss's spirit and soul stayed inside this body for long enough?

Consciousness replacement?

No, while it was foolish, it was still incredibly powerful.

The most likely outcome was that this girl's hidden consciousness would merge with the Abyss.

Without the Abyss even realizing it, it would gradually become biased toward humans, toward Train Conductors.

The Wasteland.

Was just that cruel.

Even a True God.

The moment it showed weakness, countless beings would swarm in and devour it completely.

The Train System, which favored humans, consumed even more ruthlessly than those False Gods.

"Aren't you going to give yourself a name?"

"A name? I'm the Abyss. Why would I need another name? But I suppose even my toys can't bear my true name. Hmm... Ye Qiyan, can you help me pick a name?"

"Shen Yuan."

"Isn't that my original name?"

"Homophones. Sounds better."

Ye Qiyan raised his hand, using mechanical Gears to form those two characters in the air.

"Then I'll take this one. Thank you, Ye Qiyan. You're such a good person. If you ever get the chance, you absolutely must become my Abyss lifeform! That way, you can belong to me forever!"
