System: My Doomsday Train

Chapter 249: "Your train has been upgraded to level 12.


In a desolate area of the "Crisis Valley" zone.

Chen Mang controlled the Constant Star Train to the spot where they had been staying before. After the train stopped, the carriage gradually landed on the ground.

The "Magnetic Suspension" wheels had no physical substance.

The carriage landed directly on the ground, so the ladders he had just built were temporarily unnecessary, and he could just step out in one stride.

It was dusk.

All the residents excitedly and expectantly stepped out of the train. Master Mang said that there would be a feast tonight, and in the next few days everyone would relax and enjoy movies and exciting shows.

"Pain... pain..."

Outside the train.

A middle-aged man lay on the ground, grimacing as he massaged his own neck. After a month of intense work, his whole body was sore. If his Physical Comprehensive Quality had not improved since the Doomsday, he might have been paralyzed by now.

Although his body was in some pain, his expression was extremely excited, especially when he saw his own resident panel.

He used to be with the Azure Dragon Train and had joined the Constant Star Train not long ago. It had been less than two months and he had successfully been promoted to Level 1 Resident benefits, and he had already earned two Fixed Star Coupons.

Even though his whole body was aching from exhaustion.

But his heart was happy.

He kept checking the resident panel on his Iris Chip over and over again. Each time it showed no change, but he just wanted to see it, feeling as if all his efforts over the past days had materialized as data.

The feedback was very direct.

Other residents were much like him, grimacing but with smiles on their faces, especially those from the original Azure Dragon batch. This group was the happiest, almost ready to be promoted to Level 1 Resident Benefits and start earning Fixed Star Coupons.

Including the 1200 slaves who were under Master Shen, they had completely integrated into Constant Star in this month. Driven by the atmospheric environment, mining was still quite motivated.

If you force one person to eat shit, they certainly wouldn't.

But if hundreds of people were scrambling to get a taste of the shit, that person would definitely join to try its saltiness.

Humans are creatures easily influenced by their environment and atmosphere.

Often acting in ways that are hard to understand under certain atmospheres.

Solitude ensures absolute rationality.

...

"The sunset is so beautiful..."

A middle-aged man sat on a slope, a cigarette pinched between his fingers, gazing at the sunset gradually falling behind the hills, smiling absent-mindedly and murmuring, "It's been nearly two years since the Doomsday. Time flies."

"When the Doomsday happened."

"I was quarreling with my wife then. I've forgotten what we were arguing about, just trivial household matters. I went out to buy durian for her to apologize, but not long after I left, the Doomsday broke out."

"When I rushed back, I searched the entire house and couldn't find her. I eventually found her broken body in the neighborhood garden. She had come out during the Doomsday looking for me."

"Because whenever I sulked, I liked to hide in the garden."

"When I saw her body, I was really upset and scared, especially with screams and monster roars echoing throughout the neighborhood, and all I had was a kitchen knife."

"I always wondered if she loved me."

"Seeing her corpse confirmed it. She did love me. Her risking her life to find me during the Doomsday proved it. But finding this out now is meaningless."

"I thought about dying with her but didn't have the courage."

The young man sitting beside the middle-aged man hesitated before asking, "So, Mr. Li, what happened then?"

"What happened later?"

Mr. Li shook his head, staring at the flickering scarlet at his fingertips. After a long silence, he softly said, "Later, I just muddled through. Someone in the neighborhood killed a zombie and obtained a Train Order. Everyone rushed onto that train, fleeing the city."

"We later got stuck in traffic and jumped off the train to continue running."

"It was chaotic."

"I don't bother thinking about it, not good memories."

"Oh..." The young man nodded, then hugged his knees, looking at the sunset gradually setting behind the hills, "I wish to find someone who truly loves me too."

"Don't think about it."

Mr. Li stubbed out the cigarette on the ground, got up, and waved a hand, "Asking for that after the Doomsday is a bit unreasonable. While you're young, listen to some ideas, and visit the Red House."

"Don't wait until you're my age."

"It's too late to enjoy even if you want to."

"Let's go, the banquet is about to start." Mr. Li said no more. He was in a low mood today, partly missing his wife and partly because his "Zombie Spawn Cage" still made no progress.

Especially when he saw those residents, sitting in small groups together.

He often thought.

If he... If his wife hadn't died and stayed on the Constant Star Train with him, how happy they would be.

But thinking about it, if his wife hadn't died, they probably wouldn't have survived until now. His wife was quite beautiful, and in the Doomsday, beauty is original sin.
