Qi Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the Train obediently staying put and unharmed.
Qi Xiao stopped his motorcycle, patted Old Six's head: "Wake up, we're here."
As soon as the car door opened, the Black Wind Monster impatiently rushed out.
Then it immediately squatted down to relieve itself, clearly having held it in for too long.
The carriage was still clean; it was surprising the Black Wind Monster could hold it for so long.
Qi Xiao drove the motorcycle into the carriage and parked it, while Old Six yawned, still sleepy.
"Wash the dishes, cook dinner."
Old Six's eyes lit up at the mention of dinner, and he instantly became energetic.
"Understood!"
Qi Xiao patted the dog's head and took the Black Wind Monster to the back carriage to get food.
"Black Wind Monster, have you grown bigger?"
Qi Xiao lifted the Black Wind Monster and held it in front of him: "I've been seeing you every day so I didn't notice, but after one day apart, I feel like you've grown."
After all, it had been almost a month since he adopted it.
He took the food and returned to the kitchen.
Qi Xiao tore open the roasted chicken's packaging, placed it on a plate, and put it into the oven.
He handed the picked side dishes to Old Six, then summoned the light screen.
After collecting the upgrade materials and the train coins transferred by Xi Jian, there was still one unread message in the bottom right corner.
To all Train Conductors:
Wind Season has ended, and you are about to embark on a new journey.
Your next stop will be Transfer Station, and this departure will not consume train coins.
This is a peaceful station, and you can stay for a maximum of forty-eight hours.
All remaining Train Conductors from the 10,000 areas of Newbie Village will gather here.
From Transfer Station, you will enter the New World.
Transfer Station? So there's a transfer point between Newbie Village and the New World.
There were originally 10,000 areas, so 10,000 multiplied by 10,000 means 100 million people.
Qi Xiao entered the chat room and found that there were only about thirty people online.
【So this was just Newbie Village, everyone. I'll go ahead and scout it out first. See you in the New World.】
【It doesn't even cost train coins to go to Transfer Station. Nice, very thoughtful, they know I'm broke.】
【Only ninety-something of the 10,000 people in our area are left. You are all amazing.】
【Grandpa, I'm also one in a hundred!】
【Everyone, add each other as friends, so we can look out for each other in the New World.】
As people departed, this number continued to decrease.
Xi Jian: "Why haven't you replied for so long? I thought you were dead."
"Are you cursing your ally like that?"
"We'll be at Transfer Station tomorrow morning. I'm really looking forward to it."
"Don't expose your module."
"I'm not an idiot."
After dinner, Qi Xiao tallied his current train coins: one hundred and eight.
He had enough materials to upgrade four levels, but Qi Xiao was a bit reluctant to spend forty train coins.
Metal: 600 kg / 2467 kg
Plastic: 300 kg / 1338 kg
Wood: 200 kg / 971 kg
train coins: 10 coins / 0 coins
He would upgrade one level to see if any good modifications would refresh.
Delayed Departure (Follow Account): Can delay departure from the station by 10 minutes (8 train coins)
Thicken Steel Plate: Carriage steel plate thickness increased from 5 mm to 10 mm (1 Train coin per carriage)
Free Your Hands: Obtain one Train-specific dishwasher (3 train coins)
Delayed Departure, Qi Xiao would choose to modify anything that followed the account.
Thicken Steel Plate, I have thirteen carriages now, so I'm a bit reluctant.
Dishwasher?
Qi Xiao looked at Old Six, who was diligently washing dishes, and directly ignored this option.
He decided to leave it as is for now and not upgrade.
Anyway, Kong You didn't say there would be any rewards.
He could upgrade anytime he wanted, so he would save some train coins for now.
They would reach Transfer Station tomorrow, and he would be able to meet people from other areas, so there would definitely be many good things.
Since he wasn't short on food, Qi Xiao simply threw all the dog corpses and dried meat into the automatic composting bin to produce fertilizer.
Black Silk, White Silk, and Gray Silk looked no different from ordinary dogs; if there was any difference, it was that they had no stray hairs.
Their colors were very pure.
He would keep these three for now.
The automatic composting bin continuously produced fertilizer, and the pan tao sapling had grown a bit taller in the past two days.
Looking at those few potted plants, he didn't know if it was because Ren Laotaiye was a zombie and not a ghoul, or because he was his puppet, but in any case, the plants would not attack Ren Laotaiye.
If he could catch a zombie and put it in a cage later, then use the plants to continuously attack it to exploit a bug, wouldn't he be able to get an endless supply of vegetables?
More importantly, they could be used as fertilizer.
He wondered if this plan was feasible.
Next time he encountered a zombie, he could try to catch one and make an automatic vegetable-farming machine.
toad potion: Oral intake stimulates the spirit, increasing agility and recovery; external application causes poisoning.
Goodness, it has two uses?
So when I'm fighting someone, I can drink a mouthful and then spray it on my knife, so I get faster and they get poisoned?
It's quite deceptive.
What if I have a canker sore then?
Qi Xiao shook his head and put away this clear red potion.
There was also that gray costume card; on the card was a warrior holding an axe and wearing silver armor.
This item wasn't useful for now either.
...
The next day, seven fifty.
The Train stopped at Transfer Station.
Entered Transfer Station Public Chat Room
Current online Train Conductors: 59
At eight o'clock, this number instantly surged.
Current online Train Conductors: 998765
Those who made it here were truly one in a hundred.
They should have a lot of good things in hand, right?
Many probably had module cards too; he wondered if anyone else had the Station Announcement like him.
Qi Xiao suddenly felt like he had jumped from a fishbowl into a stream.
Then the New World must be the ocean.
Qi Xiao ranked the people in the chat room by level; the first place was level sixteen.
His own level thirteen was tied for fourth.
Level ten was clearly a watershed.
There were fewer than five thousand people above level ten.
After all, upgrade materials doubled, and it also required ten train coins.
【Ohayo, Train Conductors from other areas!】
【I am Qin Shi Huang, V me fifty train coins, and I'll lead you bravely into the New World!】
【One Sukuna finger! Looking for a brave warrior to appraise!】
【One beginner succubus, used less than five times, can't handle her anymore, urgent sale! Friendly reminder, only for real men!】
【One Assassin's Potion, trade only, not for sale! Read carefully, trade only, not for sale!】
【Seeking storage items, price negotiable!】
【Selling jdbbjd_$56 future-tech mech suit! Lacks power source, don't come if you mind!】
【One Train coin per time, ten train coins for an overnight stay, guaranteed satisfaction.】
What a lively chat room, with many VIPs who had modified their avatars to be flashy, sending messages that pushed each other's pins off the top.
Qi Xiao eagerly clicked on the trading platform.
Indeed, many new items appeared.
Various items with extraordinary power, firearms, even integrated wearable mechs, drones, miniature nuclear reactors.
Also, various demon beast corpses, elixirs, weapons, talismans, and cultivation methods.
The prices were all ridiculously high; everyone was asking for exorbitant amounts.
Qi Xiao searched for magical multi-purpose fertilizer, and many people were trading it.
Three train coins for five kilograms?
Go to hell.
Some even sold treasure chests, both opened and unopened.
There were also live sales, some requiring in-person transactions, and even some selling themselves.
It was truly a mixed bag, with everything imaginable.
Little Fire Dragon? Isn't that a Pokémon? They're selling this too?
They hadn't even reached the New World yet; if they reached the New World, would he be able to buy even Ultraman?
Qi Xiao typed "treasure chest key" into the search bar, and there was indeed one result.
six-star treasure chest key, one thousand train coins
Damn, you really dare to ask for that much.
