“It’s too expensive.
You want to trade just this little bit of material for two Train Coins from me?” Upon learning that Gu Wanqing was just a bit short on materials to complete her train upgrade, Lu Xingyuan did not hesitate to extend a “helping hand.” “That’s the going rate out there.” “Exactly because that’s the going rate out there, I’m saying you’re being too greedy.
Aren’t we friends?
Shouldn’t friends help each other?
Charging me such a high price now—doesn’t your conscience hurt?
And most importantly, just now when you looked so hurt, I even gave you two Train Coins for free!” Lu Xingyuan thought about it and found it somewhat reasonable.
“Alright then, I won’t charge you.
Who told me I’m such a good person?” “You really are a super good person!
Gritting teeth.jpg” Lu Xingyuan sent over the 30 units of metal and 20 units of glass she was missing.
This way, she had gathered all the materials needed for the upgrade.
“Can the train be upgraded while it’s moving?” “The rules don’t say it can’t.” “Fine, hurry up and upgrade, then tell me what modifications you rolled.” Not long after, Gu Wanqing sent a screenshot clearly showing the train’s modification upgrades: [Early Arrival·Green (2 Train Coins): The train can arrive at the platform half an hour early.] [Small Refrigeration Box·Green (2 Train Coins): Can store perishable supplies (such as meat, medicine), extending freshness time to three platforms.] [Signal Decoy·Green (3 Train Coins): Can release a decoy signal once, attracting monsters on the platform to a specified location.] All three rolled modifications were green.
Truly worthy of the legendary lucky girl—her luck was indeed better than his.
Early Arrival went without saying.
It might not have much use on a Single-Person Platform, but on a Multi-person Platform, it would be practically invincible.
Arriving half an hour ahead of other Train Masters would allow one to seize the initiative and scavenge all the resources.
Of course, it was also a double-edged sword.
If the platform was dangerous, arriving early would naturally make you a live target.
The second one, the Small Refrigeration Box, was also quite appealing.
With it, the baskets of fruit on hand wouldn’t have to worry about rotting.
As for the third one…
It was not only a lifesaving tool but also a perfect tool for scheming against others!
If they encountered any Train Masters with ill intentions, they could just fire the Signal Decoy straight at their train without a second thought!
“What will you choose?” Lu Xingyuan asked.
“Of course, take them all!” The little rich girl truly lived up to her name—she could actually produce 7 Train Coins in one go.
So impressive!
“This refrigeration box is even bigger than I imagined!” “So?” “So, if you have any fruit you can’t finish eating and it’s about to rot, you can transfer it to me first.
I’ll help store it for you.” “Why do I feel like you, lady, aren’t up to any good?” “Do you think your Sister Qing seems like the kind of person who isn’t up to any good?” “You don’t just seem like it—you absolutely are.” The next day.
Lu Xingyuan did thirty push-ups and fifty squats to wake up his body.
The train had just given a running notice.
Next stop: Multi-person Platform · Furong Residential Area!
It can accommodate up to ten trains simultaneously.
And this is also a green platform.
“Ten trains arriving at the same time, won’t this small platform get dizzy?” He picked up the Prismatic Orb from the arrival reward, which contained only two Train Coins.
“Pretty weak.” Lu Xingyuan shook his head and then got off the train.
All the other Train Masters also disembarked.
They exclaimed and chattered excitedly, “I never expected there to be two second-level Train Masters at this stop!” Yes, that’s right.
Besides Lu Xingyuan’s train pulling two carriages, there was another train also pulling two carriages.
And his train was even flashily painted pink.
What is this?
Train modification?
Someone actually spent money just to change the carriage color to their favorite shade—how extravagant.
The Train Master of the pink train was a spirited young man with dyed yellow hair, wearing a white tank top.
On his exposed arms, the left was tattooed with a green dragon, and the right with a white tiger.
He clapped his hands to draw everyone’s attention before speaking, “Brothers and sisters, let me introduce myself.
I’m Liu Gang, leader of the second action team of Tianhua Society.” As soon as he said this, many people’s expressions immediately changed.
After all, Tianhua Society was currently the second-largest force after the Mutual Aid Society, boasting over six second-level Train Masters.
“So it’s a big shot from Tianhua Society!
Nice to meet you!” “To be honest, I’ve always wanted to join Tianhua Society, but my applications were rejected several times.
I wonder if Brother Gang could pull some strings and get me into the organization!” “You’re so amazing, handsome!
You have to help your sister out a bit later~” These praises were quite pleasing to Liu Gang.
He nodded with satisfaction before getting down to business, “As you can see, the Furong Residential Area behind us has a complex environment with many buildings.
It may look harmless on the surface, but who can guarantee there aren’t any monsters hiding in those dark stairwells, ready to ambush you?” As soon as he said this, some quick-witted Train Masters immediately caught on, their expressions slightly changing, “So, Brother Gang, you mean…” “What I mean is, I’ll lead the team and guide you all in exploring this dangerous and complex Furong Residential Area.” The woman dressed in flashy clothes immediately jumped up excitedly, “That’s fantastic!
Brother Gang, as a team leader in Tianhua Society and having upgraded his train to second level, his strength is unquestionable.
With you leading, we’ll definitely explore the area smoothly and collect plenty of resources!” However, no one else present echoed her enthusiasm.
They all looked at her with complicated expressions, and she quickly realized something, shrinking her neck.
Liu Gang chuckled, “Leading you all to explore Furong Residential Area and ensuring your safety is hard work.
Don’t you think you should show some appreciation?” The woman dressed to the nines instantly froze, her expression stiffening, and she instinctively took a step back into the crowd.
Unfortunately, she had already been singled out—who told her to be the one to stick her neck out?
“Let’s start with you.” “Unlock your train permissions.
I want to board your train and see if there’s anything good inside.” Normally, a Train Master cannot enter another person’s train, but if the owner grants permission, that’s a different story.
