Qi Xiao teased, "Haha, if there really was such a good thing, they'd definitely hide it away. How could they let others know?"
Although Qi Xiao really wanted to know if there was any way to transfer modules that were activated and followed an account, he held back from asking.
Asking too much easily arouses suspicion.
Especially from old foxes like Kong You.
Qi Xiao subtly changed the subject.
"By the way, You Jie, how many levels of treasure chests are there in total?"
"Ten levels. Treasure chests above level five require a 'key' to open."
Kong You's answer was simple and direct.
Only ten levels at most? Then my level eight treasure chest is incredibly precious.
Qi Xiao originally wanted to ask about silver coins, but considering their attitude towards the use of silver coins, he figured Kong You wouldn't tell him now.
No need to ask for trouble.
"Will the New World also have these seasonal changes?"
"Yes, but they don't change as quickly as in Newbie Village. However, there are two more types of seasons than in Newbie Village."
Kong You held up two fingers and said, "Meiyu Season, food will rot very quickly. Thunder Season, the Train's departure times will become irregular, either long or short."
"It might depart an hour after stopping, or it might stay for several days."
"Of course, if the shortest departure time is reached, you can still choose to leave early."
"However, Thunder Season is also the easiest season to widen the gap in everyone's strength. After all, the longer you stay, the longer you explore, and the greater the chance of getting good things."
"What season is it in the New World now?"
"Thunder Season."
"The New World is so dangerous, how am I supposed to survive with nothing?"
Qi Xiao sighed, letting out a long breath.
Kong You was expressionless.
"What do you need?"
"Weapons, ammunition, armor, medicine, food, upgrade materials, train coins—anything is fine, I'm not picky."
Qi Xiao immediately rubbed his hands together like a fly, chuckling.
"With your thick skin, I think you don't need my help; you can reach the Order's high ranks on your own."
"Even if I become the Order's boss, I'll still be You Jie's person."
"I can't transfer upgrade materials to you; there will be transfer records."
"But I do have some unused items; you can pick them yourself."
Kong You pulled out a pile of strange things, including but not limited to potions, clothes, firearms, and food.
"I'm not picky, not picky at all. I'll go back and study them slowly."
Qi Xiao grabbed them all, unceremoniously stuffing them into his jie bracelet.
"Um, if there's nothing else, I'll head back first. You Jie, get some rest."
Kong You waved her hand, and Qi Xiao left with a smile.
As he reached the carriage door, Qi Xiao turned back.
"Um, if we don't add each other as friends, how do I contact you if I need something?"
Kong You was looking at the coverless book again. She didn't turn around, speaking with her back to Qi Xiao: "When you join the Order, I'll come find you."
...
Qi Xiao returned to his Train and breathed a sigh of relief.
He went to the gravity carriage and put away the level eight treasure chest and train coins.
Although this was a peaceful station, Qi Xiao still put all his valuables in the car.
Thankfully, Kong You really did come to deliver good things.
Qi Xiao laid the nurse doll down, sat on her, and then pulled out everything he had gotten from Kong You.
First, the potions.
Four bottles of primary healing potion, two bottles of intermediate healing potion, and one bottle of intermediate antidote.
Good, healing potions are good things.
They're useful as long as you're not dead.
Qi Xiao picked up the most conspicuous silver handgun from the pile of miscellaneous items.
He gently stroked the handgun's metal surface, feeling its cold touch.
Its craftsmanship was very fine, every detail handled just right.
The overall design had a futuristic, high-tech feel.
【ZZ Handgun: Uses train coins to charge. Firing bullets consumes energy. Other bullet types can be unlocked using train coins.】
Currently, there are four bullet types to choose from.
Normal bullets, Frost Bullet, spirit-dispelling bullets, and healing bullets.
Presumably, only normal bullets were available initially, and the other three were unlocked by Kong You.
Good stuff.
As expected of a level fifty-two veteran player; she didn't even care for this item.
One Train coin can charge one hundred energy points, with a maximum charge of one thousand points.
A normal bullet consumes one energy point per shot.
Frost Bullet: As the name suggests, targets hit will suffer a freezing effect.
Each shot consumes five energy points.
Spirit-dispelling bullets: Can deal damage to spirits, consuming five energy points per shot.
Healing bullets: Carry healing components. When shot into a wound, they can disinfect, stop bleeding, and heal.
Each shot consumes ten energy points.
Amazing, this is truly a multi-purpose gun.
It can attack people, control, fight ghosts, and even heal teammates.
Qi Xiao couldn't put down this uniquely shaped silver handgun. Crucially, it still had over seven hundred energy points remaining, making him feel like he had freeloaded another seven train coins from Kong You.
【Scout Gloves: Improve wearer's shooting stability, reduce firearm recoil, sweat-absorbent, breathable, and anti-friction!】
These were a pair of black fingerless gloves. Qi Xiao put them on, and they were indeed very soft.
But to truly feel the change in shooting stability, he would need to actually fire a gun.
Putting away the gloves, Qi Xiao continued to examine the other items.
【lingguang stockings: Prevents varicose veins, offers low defense, increases movement speed by 1%.】
Qi Xiao: ...
This was a pair of purple waist-high stockings. Judging by their condition, Kong You probably hadn't even worn them.
The main issue was that they only increased movement speed by one percent, which felt a bit useless.
If it increased movement speed by five percent, Qi Xiao would definitely wear it without hesitation, but it was only one percent.
【Nourishing Essence Grain-Avoiding Great Oil Pill: Eat one pill and not feel hungry for seven days.】
Qi Xiao picked up this half-bag of black pills, opened the packaging, and took one out.
Good heavens, it felt like a stone, very hard.
Could this thing be chewed? Or swallowed whole?
Qi Xiao shook his head and casually put it away.
He wasn't lacking food or drink, so there was no need to suffer this hardship.
The rest were some ordinary items: a short dagger, a bulletproof vest, a flashbang, expired spicy strips...
And half a bag of magical multi-purpose fertilizer? Qi Xiao directly sprinkled it around the pan tao tree.
There really was everything. Small things that big shots didn't care for made Qi Xiao happy for days after getting them.
After counting the items, Qi Xiao contentedly went to the initial carriage.
To unlock the 'Outfit Master' at level twenty, he still needed to level up seven more times.
Qi Xiao checked the remaining upgrade materials.
【Metal: 600 kg / 1865 kg】
【Plastic: 300 kg / 1038 kg】
【Wood: 200 kg / 768 kg】
【train coins: 10 coins / 0 coins】
Although thickening the steel plates was meaningless when encountering a powerful person like Kong You, it could still resist the dangers on the platform.
I have enough train coins now, so I can modify it.
After modifying the thickened steel plates, Qi Xiao threw thirty train coins into the feeding area.
Upgrade, Level Fourteen!
【Obtained one ordinary carriage.】
【Maximum docking time extended by one hour.】
【Current latest departure time: 3 PM. You can still choose to depart at 10:50 AM.】
The docking time increased again!
Levels two, six, ten, fourteen. Sure enough, the maximum docking time extends by one hour every four levels.
Qi Xiao nodded. So far, this pattern seemed correct.
Next, the most important thing: modification refresh!
【Entertainment First: Obtain a Train-specific PS5, with a random game included (3 train coins)】
【Relaxation Moment: Obtain a Train-specific heated bathtub (2 train coins)】
【Rose Purple: Carriage color changed to rose purple (1 Train coin)】
Damn it, none of them follow the account.
After modifying the PS5, Qi Xiao upgraded again.
