Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!
Chapter 8: Second Station: White ForestThat night, no one slept more soundly than Ye Qiyan.
Countless people couldn’t fall asleep at all due to the roaring train and the biting cold wind of the wasteland. Their physical strength and spirit not only failed to recover but instead deteriorated further.
[10:27]
Awakening from his sleep, Ye Qiyan stretched his stiff body and glanced at the time to make a rough estimate.
“The entry time for the first station yesterday was one in the afternoon, so today’s entry time should also be one in the afternoon, right? But how do I calculate mine?”
Since he left the station an hour later than everyone else, would his entry time be delayed accordingly?
Leaving the first carriage to return to the train head, the temperature dropped significantly.
His control panel was already flooded with private messages.
With little time left before arriving at the second station, the train broadcast had mentioned that safety was not guaranteed at the next stop. The closer it got, the more valuable firearms would become.
Luzhou: [“Can blueprints be used for trading?”]
The importance of blueprints was undeniable. Owning a blueprint was equivalent to possessing a lathe that could produce unlimited items with just material input.
No one was foolish. Until now, even though firearms were enticing enough, no one was willing to trade blueprints with Ye Qiyan.
This Luzhou was the first.
“What kind of blueprint could it be?”
Curious, Ye Qiyan replied to him.
[“Hello, may I ask what blueprint you want to trade?”]
ID: E-3-9802
Luzhou sat dazed on the ground. Upon hearing the notification from the control system, he immediately stood and ran over.
After seeing the message, he quickly responded:
[“I’ll send you a screenshot right away!”]
Soon, a blueprint appeared before Ye Qiyan.
[Level 1 Train Seat Blueprint]
[Requirements: 5 kilograms of metal, 3 kilograms of wood, 3 kilograms of plastic, 1 kilogram of fiber]
A chair?
Ye Qiyan was somewhat surprised.
This item was neither particularly precious nor worthless. At least, no one would be willing to spend resources to buy it right now.
But regardless, it was still a blueprint—something that could be manufactured repeatedly.
If he had to compare, in the world he once lived in, guns and bullets were definitely more precious. But for him, a low-level firearm that would depreciate anytime and a blueprint that could produce endlessly, the value gap was only shrinking.
At least, that was how Ye Qiyan saw it.
How much firearms and bullets could sell for was entirely up to him.
He could sell them to Li Xiaosheng for 150 kilograms of metal or trade with Luzhou for a seat blueprint.
In the end, the price of these deals was never fixed.
It depended on whether he needed what others offered.
Ye Qiyan was somewhat tempted. With a chair, at least he wouldn’t have to sit on the ground and could rest better.
[“Trade is possible, but I can only provide 10 bullets. After all, this blueprint isn’t that great. If you need more bullets, you can use other resources to buy them.”]
The moment Luzhou saw the reply, his sweat-drenched face instantly brightened.
[“Ten bullets are fine! Thank you! Thank you! I’m sending it over now!”]
[“You don’t know how important this gun is to me! Without it, I will definitely die at the next station! Definitely, definitely!”]
Hm?
Reading Luzhou’s words, Ye Qiyan sensed something odd.
Definitely die?
Although safety was no longer guaranteed at the second station, it wasn’t to the extent of certain death, was it?
Why did this Luzhou have such a judgment?
A talent?
Looking at the trade prompt sent by the other party, Ye Qiyan chose not to refuse.
As before, he didn’t care what secrets others hid.
Everyone had secrets.
The trade completed. Looking at the blueprint in his hands, Ye Qiyan went straight to the Processing Station to manufacture it.
A black chair appeared before his eyes. Sitting on it gave Ye Qiyan a sense of returning to civilized society.
“I never thought a chair could be so important before.”
Shaking his head, he continued with his arms trade.
Until the train’s countdown to the second station reached the last hour, Ye Qiyan successfully sold fifteen rifles along with 300 bullets.
The rest, he decided not to sell anymore. After all, the second station was unsafe.
[Physical Strength: 98] [Spirit: 100]
Seeing his physical strength and spirit almost fully restored, Ye Qiyan picked up a low-level marksman rifle and held it in his hands.
“Sublimate.”
The familiar feeling of energy loss appeared, but compared to the previous Colt pistol, this rifle consumed less physical strength.
[Physical Strength: 85]
“Consumed thirteen points? And the potential is already exhausted, can’t continue sublimating.”
Ye Qiyan wasn’t disappointed. Looking at the rifle now covered with a layer of gilded color, he opened the train system’s description.
[Exquisite Marksman Rifle] (Level 2)
From low-level to exquisite.
The power of the bullets fired was more than doubled.
Of course, compared to the sublimated Blacklight Enchanted Pistol, it was still inferior.
“This is close enough.”
The countdown to the second station kept decreasing.
The atmosphere in the chatroom grew increasingly oppressive.
Fewer people spoke than before.
Ye Qiyan tidied his equipment and waited quietly.
In the last thirty minutes before entering the station,
A familiar light screen appeared before his eyes.
[Crossroads of Fate triggered, please choose one of the following two stations to stop at]
[Platform 1: Goblin Camp (Level 2 Hunting Platform)]
[Platform 2: White Forest (Level 3 Collection Platform)]
“Different?”
Compared to the first time it appeared, his exclusive module now had more information.
Station level, and special suffixes.
“Hunting and collecting? Level 2 and level 3. Is it because I upgraded the train that higher-level stations appeared? And it seems the stations the train arrives at have different levels. Was the Armory before also level 2?”
“No, it should still be level 1, after all, the items inside were level 1.”
Ye Qiyan shook his head, thought for a moment, and chose [White Forest] as his next platform.
“A collection platform, judging by the name, it shouldn’t be too dangerous.”
[Platform selection completed]
[Please sit properly and hold tight. The train’s next stop is...]
[White Forest]
Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
Just like before, spatial fluctuations engulfed the train.
A grayish-white light covered this world.
Looking outside the window, a gray-white forest came into view.
[Current Platform: White Forest]
[Stop countdown: 3:59:59]
[Good luck]
[This station: Low risk]
“The entry time is still the same, low risk...”
Taking a deep breath, Ye Qiyan put the pistol on his waist, hung the rifle on his back, slung on his backpack containing food and mineral water, and stood by the door, pressing the open button.
The moment he stepped out of the train, the whole world seemed to fall into a deathly silence.
Ye Qiyan scanned his surroundings. All the trees in this world had grayish-white trunks and leaves.
If a timid person came here, they probably wouldn’t have the courage to move forward.
Because it was too quiet.
So quiet that you could hear your heartbeat.
Combined with the last appearing words of “low risk,” everything indicated that this place wouldn’t be as easy to loot as the Armory.
But Ye Qiyan did not regret his choice. In fact, when he selected this station, he was already mentally prepared.
That said, this danger warning seemed not everyone could see. He had been lurking in the chatroom all day and hadn’t seen anyone mention it.
Those who had nothing left to say definitely wouldn’t forget something like this.
So, this must be the ability of the Crossroads of Fate?
Ye Qiyan put away his thoughts and raised his eyes to the deep white forest ahead.
“A collection platform, but I can’t tell what can be collected here. Could it be just simple wood? That doesn’t seem much different from an ordinary forest.”
“Is that a path?”
