Now reading: Chapter 25: "Built-in Fire Control System" from System: My Doomsday Train, a Sci-fi novel by Medieval Rabbit.

-

"Accessory Na": Moldy Bread Slice Production Line.

"Accessory Grade": White.

"Accessory Level": Level 1.

"Accessory Effect": For each unit of iron ore consud, 10 slices of moldy bread can be produced.

"Upgrade Condition": 100 units of iron ore.

-

"..."

Chen Mang looked at this panel expressionlessly; he finally understood why Master Kun usually didn’t want to feed the slaves well. It wasn’t intentional abuse, but... this moldy bread isn’t cheap either.

slices of moldy bread require a full unit of iron ore.

With each slave eating their fill, which ans 10 slices a day for 81 slaves, the daily bread expenditure for slaves alone would be 81 units of iron ore, which is indeed no small amount.

So Master Kun wouldn’t even spare the cost to make a "Universal Wheel", let alone feed the slaves well every al.

After all, you don’t have iron to mine every day. When there’s no mining, it’s pure consumption. So, just providing basic food during mining seems understandable.

Quite expensive.

However, he did not intend to upgrade this accessory for the ti being; after all, it’s for the slaves to eat, and it’s enough for now. He couldn’t waste iron ore on this, and would upgrade this production line when the train reached Level 2, to see if it could produce non-moldy ones. Eating moldy ones every day might make the slaves sick.

Then Chen Mang created another production line and placed it in Carriage 3.

"Stead Bun Production Line."

To create this production line, it required 100 buns. He experinted a bit and found that moldy buns could also be used as consumables, so he used all the confiscated moldy buns for this purpose.

Thus—

Carriage 3 was almost full, with Old Pig’s bed, the "Stead Bun Production Line", "Pure Water Filter", "Moldy Bread Slice Production Line", among other pots and pans, and it was also the living quarters for the thugs.

Carriage 2, on the other hand, stored large equipnt like the "Pickaxe Production Line", "Soaring Dragon Assault Rifle Production Line", "Ore Resources", and "Heavy Machine Gun Bullets".

Chen Mang looked again at the panel of the "Stead Bun Production Line".

-

"Accessory Na": Stead Bun Production Line.

"Accessory Grade": White.

"Accessory Level": Level 1.

"Accessory Effect": For each unit of iron ore consud, 1 stead bun can be produced.

"Upgrade Condition": 100 units of iron ore.

-

"Hmm..."

Chen Mang sighed lightly; this would be his staple for a long ti. It must be said, the price of buns is much higher than that of bread slices, and he would upgrade it once there was extra iron ore.

For now, buns with pickles were sufficient for him.

However, the buns produced by the "Stead Bun Production Line" were plump and white, not moldy, which ant the buns Master Kun gave him were fully moldy.

It is worth noting that—

The "Pure Water Filter" in Carriage 3 had not been used yet, always relying on confiscated bottled water. The accessory could convert any urine, blood, and other liquids into pure water, resembling a toilet.

He also didn’t collect the slaves’ urine because it only had one; he would also have to drink the water produced from it in the future, which he found hard to accept. When the slaves ca back today, he would upgrade this accessory, then it could directly produce bottled mineral water.

If it turned out that the price to produce a bottle of mineral water was high, he would build another "Pure Water Filter" specifically to collect urine and other fluids for slaves.

After creating these three production lines—

the basic needs for food, drinks, and waste managent on the train were guaranteed. The reason he didn’t join the lively fray last night, besides knowing that his train’s capabilities wouldn’t help him secure a share, was that he also knew not every day had mineable resources.

For instance, Master Kun rested on the wasteland for three days before finding a mine location.

When there’s mineable resources, it’s best to focus on mining without any distractions.

Avoid spreading oneself too thin, ending up with nothing.

...

While Chen Mang was planning the train’s future in the train cabin, Old Pig was in Carriage 3, planning all the daily routines, items that seed trivial but were indeed important.

Like counting the daily iron ore handed over by the slaves, and... distributing food, checking inventory, and other processes.

As for... Biaozi.

He took Heiwa and another old subordinate, wearing a sullen expression, and found the thug who disobeyed him the previous day.

Last night, he arranged other thugs to keep watch, but no one followed his orders, which led to mistakes and left him with a bad impression on Master Mang.

Even though he had beco the Thug Leader.

There were still people who didn’t respect him.

So... today, he needed to firmly establish his authority to avoid being unable to command again.

And the way to establish authority is quite simple.

Biaozi found the man who was obviously mocking last night, without a word, he swung his fist down, then with Heiwa and another started a round of punching and kicking.

Last night, when he gave orders, the others pretended not to hear, but this person not only ignored him but also mocked.

Rebel?

He’s here to deal with rebels!

"Master Mang!! Master Mang!!"

And this rebel clearly hadn’t expected Biaozi and his guys to be so straightforward and brutal, clutching his head with both hands, rolling on the ground while hysterically yelling, "Biaozi is causing internal strife, Master Mang!"

In response.

Biaozi, who was swinging his fist, instinctively paused, waiting for a few monts to find that, except for the rebel’s shouts in the wasteland, there was no other sound, and Master Mang had no intention of coming out. He imdiately grinned and slowly rolled up his sleeves.

"That was the appetizer."

"Here cos the main course."

"And... rember to call Brother Biao from now on."

...

"..."

In the train cabin, Chen Mang casually glanced at the commotion outside the carriage, then shifted his gaze back to his console to continue studying the "Newcor’s Guide", which contained a lot of information that he couldn’t access at the mont.

But having prior knowledge would help him feel prepared when he encountered it later.

However, most of the information was about beginners, and details about Level 2 or even Level 3 trains were scarce.

For example...

He recently learned a piece of information that when the train reached Level 2, one of the unlockable accessories was the "Built-in Fire Control System", which could place inward-facing heavy machine gun muzzles at every corner inside the carriage.

With this device.

Just a thought, and every carbon-based life form inside the train except him would perish in pools of blood.

It could be described as a "Train Reassembly Key".

Directly replacing thugs and slaves, including the Deputy Train Captain, this would further reinforce the Train Captain’s absolute control over the train, including in case the train suffered serious damage and couldn’t move, and the enemy entered the carriage, this would also be the last defense barrier.

The more he learned, the more he realized how extravagant it was for Master Kun to have 300 slaves.

With Master Kun’s capabilities, he didn’t deserve to have 300 slaves.

slaves could produce approximately 3000 units of iron ore per day, and if there were guaranteed mining opportunities every day, within a month at maximum, one could have a fully equipped Level 2 train.

However—

When he seized Master Kun’s remaining resources, he found that Master Kun’s inventory was pitifully small, and it was unknown where all the iron ore had been wasted, as there weren’t any high-level accessories on that train; surely, he couldn’t have just never found a mine, right?
