Once everything was prepared, the black sun-like Fallen Angel flew back from the front, and the ground shook with a deafening noise, as thousands of indistinguishable crawling monsters came chasing.

The next moment, the Dark Elf raised her hand and conjured a massive fire cloud in the crimson sky, rain-like flames engulfed hundreds of meters around the train walls, turning it into a sea of fire. Medusa's poisonous clouds and Vampire Girl's blood mist mingled as the Fallen Angel's black feather arrows exploded among the monster swarm like bomb-laden machine guns!

Chun's experience points surged again wildly!

Level 34!

Level 35!

Awesome! These monsters are from Hell's 7th layer, how can they be the same as the ones on the surface?

After the relentless bombardment of magic, many monsters still managed to break through the illusion realm and crash directly against the train walls.

——System Alert; Warning! Your advanced mechanician skill has detected damage...

Chun immediately grabbed his tools and started repairing, but the sound of destruction was relentless, and his skill proficiency notifications kept popping up!

Maybe this battle is the chance to reach expert-level mechanician!

The car-sized Corpse Demon finally appeared, immediately set ablaze by concentrated magic attacks, yet it still charged towards the train like a car burning madly.

Chun's heart leapt to his throat, unable to imagine the extent of damage that collision would cause!

But the next moment, the Fallen Angel transformed into a Black Flame Fire Sword descending from the sky, striking the demon's back, causing it to collapse in front of the train walls!

The Vampire Girl blasted a Blood Burst Technique on its wounded back, the demon's back erupted into a fountain of blood spraying several meters high! No, it was spewing a torrent of four-digit damage!

Then Medusa softened the earth into quicksand, leaving it no chance to rise again!

This amount of health, this damage, this control effect, this is Hell's 7th layer!

The Dark Elf warned, "Boss, get down!"

In the next moment, the Corpse Demon exploded into a shower of flying blood and flesh...

——System Alert: Congratulations! The battle is over. You gained a large amount of battle experience and leveled up to 36!

——System Alert: Congratulations! Your module combination skill gained significant training during the battle, advancing to Master level 4.

——System Alert: Congratulations! Your outstanding wisdom, Master-level module combination successfully comprehended mechanical repair techniques during the battle, advancing you to expert-level mechanician 1. Achievement reward: Mining Cart Repair Mastery, Physical Strength +2, Carry Weight +2, Speed +1.

Mining Cart Repair Mastery: Significantly improves the speed and success rate of repairing mining carts, reduces part wear, and decreases the durability limit degradation of mining carts.

...

What a worthwhile battle, and these high-end mining carts aren't half-bad after all, they even made me an expert machanician!

But to think they only granted mastery in mining carts to a mechanician. This narrows the career path of a profession, doesn't it?

But considering that my mastery of module combinations was rewarded with Mirror Spirit Mastery, it seems like the reward pattern is generally: whatever you use to level up, you'll mostly master that.

At this time, Vampire Girl Julia's laughter echoed across the battlefield, "Look at this, it's the Corrupt Crystal Core, how radiant and beautiful, it's like the most beautiful flower growing from rotten flesh."

It did seem that way, last time when Aileen defeated the Cockroach King, she said something similar when a crystal dropped...

The Fallen Angel hugged Chun, "I thought this battle would be troublesome, but it turned out easier than expected. Boss's skills played quite a role."

Vampire Girl laughed, "Indeed, my Blood Burst Combo has never been smoother than today; being a miner is such a waste of your talent, Boss."

Hmm, finally they see how powerful my Master-level module combination is? I just realized it myself! No, actually, I still don't understand.

Chun immediately responded humbly, "No, no, no, compared to the great Dios, I'm nothing at all."

The women exchanged glances.

The Fallen Angel smiled awkwardly, "Alright then, since the vehicle isn't in serious trouble, let's get back on the road."

Although the vehicle wasn't in serious trouble, Chun still had to repair along the way, and he regrettably found that expert-level proficiency wasn't increasing at all.

Looks like not even the most high-end mining cart can level up from merely tightening screws. Based on my previous mechanician insights, it seems I need to actually engage in mechanical development, like the stone-throwing cannon project in Chifanda.

Thinking about this, Chun took a look at the original state while idling.

Just as expected:

——System Alert: Congratulations! You learned expert-level mechanician 1 through Soul Link.

But expert-level underwater construction hasn't been learned. Maybe muscle memory hasn't recovered to the advanced level 10 from before amnesia, causing a lack of synchronization and link?

Continue with the alt account then.

...

By 4 pm, the convoy reached the mining district again, and Chun felt exhausted from tightening screws along the way.

After arranging things with them and having the mining carts wait in place, Chun went alone into the Earth Flame mining district to greet the Earth Flame Giants.

The previous group of Earth Flame Giants were still there: "Little guy, you've come again. The chief wants to see you! Come with me!"

Huh? Storyline trigger!

Chun thus followed a giant forward, and the scene shifted again.

——System Alert: You entered the Earth Flame Giant's Synchronization state. Your outstanding wisdom, Earth Flame physique is comprehending Earth Series Spatial Magic "Shrinking Earth Technique".

Here it goes again!

According to the town's mining guild, these three Earth Flame Giants are just the outskirts, requiring at least five S-rated mercenary corps to handle them. After witnessing their prowess in two battles today, one can also generally infer the strength of the Earth Flame Giants.

With the giants' technique of Shrinking Earth, defeating might be possible, but extermination may not be—truly worthy of being called the strongest by the Volcano Dragon!

While thinking, the scene shifted, and Chun saw the purple crystalline mountain once again, entering the cave where Dibilon was.

Dibilon said with emotion, "Little guy, I said the next time we meet I'd give you a gift, but I didn't expect the next time to come so quickly, leaving me feeling unexpectedly rushed."

A higher-grade Crystal Core?

Chun greeted with sincerity, "Chief, actually I'm developing in the Demon Race city Lost Paradise. Yesterday, based on our friendly relationship I came to the outskirts to mine Earth Flame Crystal Ore, and today I want to mine more. I'm worried this might be too excessive—"

Dibilon laughed heartily, interrupting Chun's words, "That's the wisest choice; the better you develop, the more status you have in the Demon Race city, the more beneficial it is for our tribe, isn't it?"

What straightforward and simple logic!

Chun sincerely praised from the heart, "Chief's mind is as vast as the earth itself!"

Dibilon laughed, "So I want to support you, help you quickly gain status, and spare you the slow mining process. I'll arrange workers to directly load for you; you just come back repeatedly for transportation. We have too many of these Crystal Stones."

Chun was stupefied! Is there really such a good thing?

Could this still be the NPC logic focused on holding players back? It doesn't make sense! Or perhaps, it's different, it's aiming to create a human rebellion against the "Celestial Net"?
