CHAPTER 519: CHAPTER 280: WITHERED WOOD SPRING

After the train upgraded to Level 15, the biggest change was...

Xiaolv woke up.

Chen Mang glanced at Xiaolv lying on the chair beside him. Besides that, a new feature appeared on the control panel, "Acceleration Growth".

"..."

He thoughtfully looked at the feature’s introduction panel, which generally meant it could accelerate the growth of various crops in the carriages, greatly reducing the maturity cycle. It’s considered a lifestyle feature.

Not bad.

It could quickly mature the crops and fruits in the Breeding Carriage. However, different crops require different soil environments, and he didn’t know how Mr. Li handled that. He didn’t manage it, leaving it to others to deal with.

He can’t know everything; he’s not a god.

Secondly—

Upon the train reaching Level 15, it had a new accessory available for crafting.

-

"Space-Time Teleportation": Red-grade accessory, requires 50,000 units of iron ore to craft.

-

There’s only one accessory available for crafting.

But the Accessory Effect is quite impressive, being quite useful when escaping.

Can be activated once per day. Upon activation, a Teleportation Gate will appear in front of the train, transporting it to any corner of the area...

But...

The limitation of only teleporting to any one corner of the area is quite restrictive, it doesn’t allow for a long escape. He once encountered two trains possessing this red-grade accessory, thinking it was an accessory obtained from the Adventure Map, so is it an accessory that every train can craft?

"This is a bit of a headache..."

Chen Mang muttered, and if any train provoked him in the future, he’d have to keep searching for the enemy after a Space-Time Teleportation, which would be quite time-consuming.

He immediately used 50,000 units of iron ore to craft it, and used 7.75 million units of iron ore to upgrade it to Level 20 in one go.

The accessory upgrade had no effect.

It still can only be activated once per day, but it gained three Supermodel Effects.

-

"Space-Time Teleportation Level 5 Supermodel Effect": Half Consumption.

"Space-Time Teleportation Level 10 Supermodel Effect": Can consume a large amount of energy to forcibly open a random wormhole, where the wormhole’s drop point is unknown, anywhere in the vast universe.

"Space-Time Teleportation Level 20 Supermodel Effect": Can open a new wormhole based on traces at the initial point of a recently dissipated wormhole, and this wormhole will link to the point connected by the previous wormhole.

-

"The Mechanical Civilization seems to have thoroughly researched wormholes."

Chen Mang silently looked at these three effects; the Teleportation Gate is essentially a small wormhole entrance. No one knows where the "Goblin Tomb" is located, maybe it doesn’t even exist on this planet at all. The Mechanical Civilization can easily manipulate wormholes of any size.

Among these three Supermodel Effects,

only the first and third Supermodel Effects are relatively useful, especially the third Supermodel Effect. This way, next time someone uses Space-Time Teleportation to escape, he’ll follow right behind...

Give them a big surprise!

As for the Level 10 Supermodel Effect, just looking at the panel, it’s very strong!

With just one red-grade accessory and several million units of iron ore, you can appear anywhere in the universe, equivalent to a universe random teleportation device.

He glanced at the consumption.

One Level 8 Energy Stone.

Which means the effect of 5 billion units of iron ore.

nmsl!

Who the hell can afford to use this?

...

"..."

Chen Mang, sitting inside the train cabin, shook his head and stopped looking at the accessory’s information. The train still had 142.2 million units of iron ore. Once this harvest from Neon City is tallied, the armor will be upgraded again, to Level 18, allowing entry into the red area.

The monster level distribution in the red area with a maximum of Level 18.

With Level 18 armor, while it might not withstand the attack from all trains, it will easily handle monsters in the red zone.

"By the way, Ai."

Chen Mang suddenly remembered something and, after pondering for a long time, said, "Do you still remember the Time Rift we found in this area’s city? Back then, that Time Rift caused the train radar to malfunction there."

"A few seconds outside, thirty years inside had already passed."

"A middle-aged man went in and came out an old man, and in that Time Rift, there was no need for eating, drinking, or any metabolic issues."

"I remember, what’s up, Train Captain." Ai’s voice came from the train cabin.

"What do you think would happen if we threw in a Cyber Mining Machine that can automatically run?"

"..."

After a pause, Ai spoke again, "Can’t simulate the scene, but that Time Rift has now disappeared. We need to encounter a new Time Rift to conduct that experiment."

"Master Shen isn’t dead, is he?"

"No, Mr. Li’s maintaining him well."

"Next time we’ll use him for experiments."

"Okay."

Just then—

Countless light dots suddenly appeared before Chen Mang, and soon these light dots gradually formed a panel in front of him, presenting several lines of text.

-

"Thank you for waiting, here is the Withered Wood Spring Adventure Map. Do you still remember the challenge in the classroom of the first stage? You successfully passed the first stage, and 19 other pioneers have also passed it."

"In 48 hours, including yourself, 20 pioneers will need to move on to the second stage, to select the victor, and compete in the third stage for the final victory."

"The victor will receive a gift that will make the hearts of countless Train Captains race."

"A grand gift from the Mechanical Little Princess ’Tuo Tuo’ to the most ingenious on this planet!"
