"Poor child..."
The uncle looked at the young man kneeling on the ground crying bitterly with a sowhat complicated expression. After hesitating for a mont, he continued, "But even if you can buy so accessories in Neon City, your train won’t be able to upgrade..."
"That’s right."
"But at least there’s a little more hope, isn’t there?"
...
Chen Mang, sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looked strangely at the information about the young man on the tablet that Ai handed over.
"Trapped in the white region."
"Can you really be trapped in a certain region?"
He hadn’t thought of such a situation.
After all, he had never encountered such a situation on his journey. It’s a pity that if he were trapped in the purple or blue region, how great it would be. How much iron ore could he have saved over the years with nowhere to spend it, only to spend it here.
Being trapped in the white region, even after developing steadily for so long, he wouldn’t have accumulated much iron ore. After all, there isn’t even a Level 3 mine in the white region, and even Level 2 mines are extrely rare.
Basically, Level 1 mines are mainstream.
The output of a Level 1 mine is around 10,000 units of iron ore, what could you really do with that...
Not enough to buy a lot.
"Logically speaking, such a situation shouldn’t occur." Ai, standing beside, shook her head, "We still don’t fully understand how regions are ford, but one thing is clear, the existence of regions effectively reduces the mortality rate of the inhabitants on this planet."
"Without the existence of regions to block so monstrously powerful creatures, no train would have developed so far. In the early days of Doomsday, those terrifying monsters could have annihilated the entire planet."
"For example, that Level 15 Red-skinned Rabbit, with a speed close to 4000 km/h, even though ’Water Blue Star’ is quite large, just one rabbit would be enough to wipe out all life on the planet in a short ti."
"Like peeling an onion, layer by layer, clearing everything."
"Regions have more advantages than disadvantages for trains."
"Theoretically, such a region shouldn’t exist, but... in this world, any phenonon could have bugs, so the ergence of a place like this isn’t surprising, but such regions must be in the minority, after all, this is the first ti we’ve seen one, all these years."
"..."
Chen Mang turned and looked at Ai, paused, then continued, "Before there was Neon City, we couldn’t have encountered trains from these regions either."
"Moreover."
"Don’t use inverted sentences from now on, it sounds awkward."
"Alright, Train Captain."
...
After watching for a while, Chen Mang returned to the Constant Star Train cabin. There wasn’t much work to do there, so he decided to rest for a while in the train cabin.
At this mont—
In this space.
The fully powered headlights dispelled a large area of darkness, making the space as bright as day.
But after all, it wasn’t true sunlight exposure.
Staying long, one would feel a slightly oppressive feeling.
Chen Mang sat in the train cabin, casually took an apple from the fruit plate on the table and started munching on it, looking at the "golden-grade" accessory blueprint in his hand!
Golden-grade.
One grade higher than red-grade.
Throughout the train’s journey, there was only this one golden-grade accessory blueprint. This was the second ti going to Neon City, and after Ai unlocked unlimited currency privileges, she raided and bought it in the third layer of the chanical store.
Many things from that day were put back into the chanical Train Accessories Store, but so of the more precious items were kept by him. Even if sold, others couldn’t afford them, and besides, he didn’t want to sell them.
-
"Robot Research and Developnt Center": Golden-grade accessory, requires 100,000 units of iron ore to build.
-
Cos with two types of robots.
"Mining Robot", "chanical Dog".
The forr has functions to mine copper ore, iron ore, and chop timber fields, with a fixed mining efficiency of 1 unit of ore per hour.
Creating one "Mining Robot" consus 10,000 units of iron ore.
One Level 1 Energy Stone can power it for 180 days.
Level 0 defense, Level 0 attack.
The latter has attack and exploration functions.
Creating a basic Level 1 "chanical Dog" consus 10,000 units of iron ore.
Level 0 defense, Level 0 attack, even if out of the target detection radar range, it can transmit information back to the train AI data processing center through its built-in chanical eye.
Customizable in "Defense", "Attack", "Functions" and more.
For instance—
A machine gun can be mounted on the back of the chanical dog, granting it combat capabilities.
Or the energy stone inside the chanical dog can be activated, enabling a self-destruction effect.
All custom designs consu more iron ore.
...
"..."
Chen Mang leaned back in his chair, looked at the accessory blueprint in his hand, gently swayed it and placed the apple core on a napkin next to him, to be taken away by Fang later and delivered to the breeding carriage, to see if they could grow a fruit tree.
This would make the price of fruit much lower, but the manufactured fruit couldn’t have its taste and texture customized.
"Robot Research and Developnt Center".
Extrely strong accessory.
Capable of creating two types of robots.
"Mining Robot", "chanical Dog", the forr replacing inhabitants, the latter replacing guards. From a certain point of view, with this accessory, the chanical train can even function like a flesh and blood train. Even if there’s only the train captain on board, it can still function normally.
As of now.
The "Mining Robot" doesn’t have much effect for him, as he doesn’t lack mining inhabitants, but as the train gradually develops and moves into more advanced regions, the mining robot will beco essential.
