Surviving in the wasteland is dangerous. You are relentlessly pursued by countless zombies and monsters. Fortunately, you have a train. With it, you can freely evade the zombies and search for various survival resources buried in the wasteland.
And so, after a month, you've made quite a name for yourself in this wasteland. Everyone knows that the treatment is good on your train, and soon it gathers over 2000 people. You also find several energy mines, yielding many rewards, upgrading your train components, and bringing you one step closer to a Tier 2 train.
"Boss, even though we're famous in the wasteland, many people from the base city want to become members of our train. I heard that this has displeased some of the big shots in the base city. So, do you think we should be more careful these next few days?"
In the northern wasteland, inside the No. 1 carriage of the Ironclad, Lin Changqing looks at some energy mineral data blueprints on the table. Beside him is a man wearing glasses named Li Long.
Li Long was the one who warned Lin Changqing to be careful in the cave. Over these past two months, Lin Changqing has found him to be courageous and quite loyal, so Lin Changqing promoted him to the position of assistant.
"It's nothing. No need to worry. We'll do what we need to do. Let the brothers continue to find the locations of the mines. Remember, as long as we upgrade to a Tier 2 train, those big shots can't threaten us at all." Lin Changqing puts down the data in his hand and says indifferently to Li Long.
Lin Changqing also knows that some Tier 2 big shots in the base city are displeased with his success over the past month, but Lin Changqing doesn't take it seriously at all.
Because he's about to upgrade to a Tier 2 train. Once he upgrades, those big shots are nothing to him. Those big shots are also Tier 2 trains. When everyone is a Tier 2 train, what can you do to me?
But at the same time, even as you think this, you also feel a sense of urgency. You must hurry up and upgrade to a Tier 2 train, or you'll be in danger.
Ten days later, you find another set of energy stone mines and get a lot of train rewards. You upgrade a lot of train equipment and components. At this moment, your train is already 150 meters long, making it one of the most powerful among the Tier 1 trains. You are one step closer to a Tier 2 train!
But at the same time, you also learn some bad news. Upon learning that you are about to upgrade to a Tier 2 train, the big shots in the base city can't sit still. They are preparing to join forces to kill you, this threat.
You are not surprised. You were mentally prepared for this. In this area, the few Tier 2 train big shots in the base city are the rulers. They naturally won't allow a new Tier 2 train to be born, because when a new Tier 2 train is born, it means the redistribution of resources. So you are not surprised that they are going to join forces to hunt you down.
You are just seizing the time to continue looking for new energy mines. As long as you find another one that yields rewards, you can upgrade to a Tier 2 train and not fear those big shots in the base city.
One day, you are driving the Ironclad on the wasteland, preparing to find new energy mines. Suddenly, a train approaches you. The other side sends a communication signal, and you stop. Someone you didn't expect walks over from the opposite train—it's Huang Er.
"Brother Lin's fame in the wasteland these past few days has reached my ears. I heard that even the big shots in the base city can't do anything to you. Admirable, admirable, Huang is impressed!"
Huang Er walks up to Lin Changqing and says with a smile, cupping his hands. Lin Changqing narrows his eyes. He didn't expect Huang Er to come to his door at this time and say such flattering words.
"Brother Huang, what brings you here?" Lin Changqing says unhurriedly.
"Naturally, it's something important." Huang Er smiles, while also observing the Ironclad behind Lin Changqing. There is envy, shock, and a hint of fear in his eyes.
My goodness! Upgrading so fast, it's already 150 meters long. This Lin Changqing is really something. He upgraded his train to the peak of Tier 1 in just one month. Luckily, I didn't make a move that day, otherwise, I would have been the one to lose!
Huang Er is both afraid and fortunate. The words he just said weren't empty words. In this month, Lin Changqing has indeed been the center of attention in the wasteland. He upgraded his train to its peak in one month, reaching 150 meters, basically becoming a quasi-Tier 2 train big shot.
Huang Er is indeed very impressed. He has worked hard for more than ten years, and his train is only 120 meters long. But this thing of people being more infuriating than others, Lin Changqing got 150 meters in one month and is about to upgrade to Tier 2. Those Tier 2 big shots in the base city can't sit still either.
Huang Er can only say that he is very fortunate that he didn't make a move that day.
"I know that Brother Lin is just a little bit away from upgrading to a Tier 2 train. I have the location of an energy stone mine here." Huang Er adjusts his mindset and then says respectfully, taking out a blueprint from his pocket and handing it to Lin Changqing.
"Oh, you're actually giving me the location of an energy stone mine? Aren't you afraid that those big shots in the base city will deal with you?" Lin Changqing is very surprised. He didn't expect that this dead fatty in front of him would actually come to give him the location of an energy stone mine. He really is short of one energy stone mine to upgrade to Tier 2, but he didn't expect that Huang Er would be the one to offer help in the nick of time.
Huang Er laughs and says, "The so-called wealth comes from taking risks. Brother Lin also knows that those few Tier 2 train big shots in the base city have monopolized some of the resources in the vicinity. We people have worked hard for ten years and are still stuck at Tier 1, the reason being that all the good resources are controlled by those big shots."
"But fortunately, Brother Lin has appeared. My purpose in giving Brother Lin the location of the mine is very simple, which is to bet that Brother Lin can advance to become a new Tier 2 train big shot. I can then curry favor with Brother Lin in advance, so that Brother Lin can give me more resources in the future."
Huang Er says respectfully. After hearing this, Lin Changqing takes a deep look at the fatty in front of him.
This person is indeed a character, able to yield and stretch, but it must be said that the location of the energy stone mine that this fatty sent does solve his urgent need.
"Okay, I've remembered that you sent me the location of the energy stone mine today. In the future, Lin will definitely repay you." Lin Changqing says. After hearing this, Huang Er nods repeatedly, overjoyed. His purpose has been achieved. He just wanted to curry favor with Lin Changqing, especially when he saw the 150-meter-long Ironclad in front of him. He is even more certain that Lin Changqing will definitely be a Tier 2 train in the future. Of course, he has to curry favor in advance.
Five hours later, you find the location of the energy stone mine on Huang Er's blueprint. You send people to mine it. Three hours later, you get a reward. You successfully upgrade the train and upgrade to a Tier 2 train. At this moment, your train has reached 250 meters and can accommodate 10,000 people!
A day later, the news that you upgraded to a Tier 2 train spreads, and those big shots in the base city are dumbfounded. They didn't expect you to upgrade so quickly.
Those big shots don't dare to mention dealing with you anymore. And so, you slowly become one of the new big shots in the base city.
After another ten years, you kill all those Tier 2 big shots in the base city and devour their trains, becoming a Tier 3 train.
After another twenty years, you upgrade the train to a Tier 5 train, and you also know that it's time to find the Great Terror!
