Finally, a golden radiance burst forth, illuminating Bai Cheng’s pupils and reflecting the joy on her face.
[Top-Grade! Golden Legendary Employee Card!]
[You have gained 1 distributable attribute point!]
Bai Cheng imdiately raised the golden card in her hand to inspect it.
The back was the sa as usual, but the front... had a golden question mark?
"What does this an?" Bai Cheng frowned, puzzled.
[Na: Employee Card (Unknown)]
[Quality: Legendary]
[Evaluation: A random legendary creature will accompany you on your legendary journey.]
The description was still vague, offering no useful information.
"Even if it’s random, all legendary creatures should be overpowered, right?" Bai Cheng murmured, resting her chin on her hand.
She hoped to obtain an employee with strong combat abilities.
As for things like mounts or cart-pulling, those were completely unnecessary for Bai Cheng now.
[Bind this employee card?]
[Once bound, the card will automatically be used!]
Bai Cheng decisively clicked [Yes]. The golden employee card in her hand dissolved into starlight, scattering to the ground before coalescing into a tall, imposing humanoid figure.
In the blink of an eye, the light solidified, revealing a muscular man dressed in sothing resembling a martial arts uniform. An invisible pressure radiated from him.
He had striking short red hair and stood at least two ters tall, making Bai Cheng look like a dwarf in comparison.
Was it her imagination, or had the temperature inside the carriage risen since his appearance?
At the sa ti, a trace of disappointnt flickered in Bai Cheng’s eyes. Her legendary employee was just... a generic-looking muscle man?
Damn it, I’d be fine if you’re a beautiful woman instead!
She internally scread in frustration, even regretting not using that green Fierce Tiger Employee Card earlier.
No matter how strong a human was, could they really defeat a tiger?
But the towering muscle man before her seed oblivious to her disappointnt. Instead, the mont he saw her, he dropped to one knee.
"Honorable Train Conductor, this subordinate pledges his life to serve you!"
His rough, hoarse voice echoed in her ears.
Of course, Bai Cheng rembered that initial employees had 100% loyalty. Only if the Train Conductor did sothing extre would their loyalty waver.
Hearing his address, she frowned in dissatisfaction.
"Honorable... Train Conductor? What an awful title."
"From now on, call ... call Young Master1," she said offhandedly.
Clearly, Bai Cheng assud that her new employee was just a regular human.
Still, as a legendary employee, she believed that he must have extraordinary abilities. She casually checked his stats, and her eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.
[Employee: Naless (You can na him)]
[Race: Crimson Fla2 Lion]
[Rank: Elite Rank 1 (0%)]
[Quality: Legendary]
[Trait 1: Power of Crimson Fla – This race possesses the ability to control fire.]
[Trait 2: King of Magical Beasts – The Crimson Fla Lion can command all beasts to obey.]
[Trait 3: One of a Kind3 – Gains a 20% combat boost in one-on-one battles against foes of the sa level. Can freely alter body size.]
[Note: Employees can only obtain 90% of EXP from kills, with the remaining 10% attributed to the Train Conductor.]
"He’s not even human?!" Bai Cheng was both shocked and thrilled.
Her legendary employee’s abilities were downright broken!
"Crimson Fla Lion... a magical beast?" Bai Cheng slowly understood.
Survivors like her and ordinary beasts started at the Common Rank, but Train Conductors like her could level up through grinding.
However, this magical beast employee had started at Elite Rank 1, a whole rank above her!
Even without considering his natural combat prowess, being a rank higher already made him invincible in the current environnt.
What excited Bai Cheng the most, however, was his [King of Magical Beasts] trait. He could command all beasts, solving her future food problems in one stroke.
"No, it’s even better," Bai Cheng’s gaze shifted to the window. "The creatures roaming the Silent Night are also beasts. Killing them grants EXP."
An Elite-ranked magical beast would slaughter everything in the wild.
Bai Cheng suddenly changed her mind. Maybe she could delay her journey until morning.
Tonight, I’ll farm EXP like crazy!
Her eyes returned to her burly employee, all traces of disdain replaced by excitent.
"Get up, get up! No need to kneel."
"As you wish, Young Lady," he replied before standing, though he remained rigid like a robot, awaiting orders.
Bai Cheng smacked her forehead. "Ah, I almost forgot—you need a na."
She was terrible at naming things. Since his race was Crimson Fla Lion...
"From now on, you’re Chi Yan4!" she declared without hesitation.
"Thank you, Young Lady, for the na." Chi Yan bowed respectfully.
"Now go outside and kill beasts for EXP," Bai Cheng ordered.
Chi Yan acknowledged and leaped off the train the mont the door opened.
Curious about his strength, Bai Cheng rushed to the window to watch.
The mont Chi Yan’s feet touched the ground, an invisible heatwave erupted.
The dark forest trembled without wind, and in the distance, pairs of crimson eyes frantically scattered as if they were fleeing a plague.
Chi Yan hunched over, his body sprouting fur and bursting into crimson flas.
In an instant, he transford into a massive lion, nearly as tall as Bai Cheng’s steam train!
"ROAR!"
He lowered his stance and let out a deafening roar, spreading a ring of fire outward.
The beasts that heard his roar froze in place.
As the flas swept over them, their bodies ignited, turning to ash in seconds!
[Your employee Chi Yan has slain a Silent Night Leopard! Gained 0.1 EXP!]
[Your employee Chi Yan has slain a Silent Night Vulture! Gained...]
[...]
Bai Cheng’s jaw dropped.
"Did I just get a cracked version5 of this ga?!"
"Damn, this is too overpowered!"
This wasn’t a fight, it was a massacre. Every beast within Chi Yan’s range could only wait for death!
Clink! Clank!
Infinite Coins began piling up at the bottom of the screen, so even rolling off the control panel into the ground.
"I’m really getting rich now!"
