System: My Doomsday Train

Chapter 172: "Am I that important?


"Was there an earthquake...?"

"I don't know, but it's not impossible. I think I learned back in school that earthquake is common in basin areas, so even if there is one, it's understandable, right?"

"Are you sure that earthquakes are common in basin areas?"

"I'm not sure, let me think."

In the center of the yellow area "Zombie Basin," beneath a sky full of stars, dozens of trains are parked nearby, with dozens of Train Captains gathering with their trusted aides for a spontaneously organized small gathering.

This habit of gathering has been preserved even in the yellow area.

It's not just about exchanging materials but also exchanging information, allowing for more effective information to be shared in person.

In the white area, gatherings are generally scheduled during the day, which is safer. Although monsters are active day and night, overall, day-time activity is less, making daytime gatherings safer.

But in the yellow area, gatherings are generally scheduled at night.

This way, it doesn't waste time.

The slaves rest in the carriages, while Train Captains attend the gatherings. After the gathering, they can go back the next day to continue mining.

And at this moment—

Many Train Captains feel a slight trembling of the ground, instinctively looking toward the slope of the small hill.

On the slope of the small hill, there's an endless passage, with a glass tunnel inside. Many people know about it, but there's a pale yellow membrane at the tunnel entrance.

Next to it, there's a light curtain.

"Ahead is a Restricted Area."

It's not that no one has tried exploring it, but no one has ever succeeded. Over time, people stopped caring about it, only newcomers to Zombie Basin would go to check it out, imagining they are the chosen one, only to return disappointed.

At this moment, the ground is slightly shaking.

It feels like something is exploding underground, like an earthquake but not quite like an earthquake.

Just then!

A piercing sonic boom suddenly exploded in everyone's ears, immediately followed by a train speeding out from the tunnel on the slope of the small hill, smashing the membrane, soaring into the sky.

Like a meteor from outer space, it disappeared from everyone's view in the blink of an eye.

The last impression left was the train carriage with numerous thrust nozzles on both sides, with pale blue tail flames decorating the train beautifully in the night.

"..."

Nearly all the Train Captains stood dazed, stopping their actions, looking up at the train that had disappeared beyond the horizon, finally reacting, exchanging glances.

"Was that a train?"

"What do you think, with so many carriages, it's obviously a train. I don't even know where these people got the Bunny Cloud. I'm already level 8 train and haven't gotten that accessory yet."

"You mine every day, of course, you can't get it. These rare accessories have to be found in the Adventure Map or by killing rare bosses to have a chance of obtaining."

"I don't remember anyone this fierce in Zombie Basin, who can catch up to that speed?"

"Can't be the Fixed Star?"

"Are you talking about the train that just arrived at Zombie Basin, ranked first in Supermodel Effect quantity?"

"Could be, huh."

...

"..."

Inside the Constant Star Train, Chen Mang switched to the "Bunny Cloud" wheels, flying high, looking for a place to rest. At the moment of breaking through the ground, he saw the gathering below.

But he temporarily had no intention of joining.

This time, the gains were substantial.

He needed to find a place to rest.

Soon—

He landed on a flat area with no high-level zombies around, without activating the "Vehicle Zombie Shield," as the accessory also consumes energy when activated. For low-level zombies, there's no need to activate it; it's just right for people below to practice.

Chen Mang looked at the resources column on the Train Panel.

First is resources.

"3.49 million units of iron ore, 365 thousand units of copper ore, 500 thousand units of wood, 200 thousand units of Red Heart Rock."

The iron ore obtained from the Earth Core Nuclear Bomb Adventure Map after those few trains were swallowed had already been included in the statistics at that time.

This map supplemented him with plenty of resources.

Also a white-grade Accessory Blueprint and 4 Murphy Stones, he now has 16 Murphy Stones.

The blueprint is... "Airplane Cup Production Line."

Airplane Cup, a tool for relaxation, can be barely used; except for the tedious cleaning process, using it too often may cause soreness, but it doesn't have much downside.

This blueprint was found from the "2D Train."

Actually.

Even if you destroy a train, it's difficult to obtain a blueprint from the opposing train, after all, everyone uses the blueprint as soon as they get it. Who would keep it unless it's unused and they plan to sell it.

This item.

"Hmm..."

After thinking for a while, Chen Mang consumed 4500 units of iron ore to forge it, upgrading it to level 10 by the way. Although it's useless to him, he can make a few to place in the "Resident Store," not only enriching product varieties but also providing a stress-relieving option for residents unwilling to buy meat.

-

"Airplane Cup Production Line Level 5 Supermodel Effect": Softer and more elastic.

"Airplane Cup Production Line Level 10 Supermodel Effect": Half Consumption.

-

Not bad, originally 10 units of iron ore to make one, now with half consumption, 5 units of iron ore to make one.
