“Five hundred kiloters, plus killing the BOSS, will probably take about five hours in total.”
Bai Cheng looked at her watch; it was still early for Yu Nian to return.
While using her talent to upgrade items, she also consud so of her stored supplies to upgrade the train.
Bai Cheng first upgraded the train's locomotive.
As a white light flashed, the locomotive's overall width slightly increased, and a faint silvery-white glow perated its thick armor.
The external appearance didn't change much, but the interior gained many details and several leather coverings, making it less wild and crude.
A ceiling sewn with brown leather, wrapped door handles, and wooden flooring, even a thoughtful fixed wooden chair behind the driver.
But it was still lacking sothing, so Bai Cheng checked the information on the screen.
【......】
【Upgrade requirents: 0/500 fine wood, 0/2000 silver ingots, 0/5 train cores.】
“The types of materials needed for this upgrade have decreased, but the quantity hasn't lessened at all,” Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow.
However, it was perfect; she had just cleared the Fla Spirits's lair, and the most abundant and overflowing resource she had was silver ingots.
And after upgrading her tools and construction equipnt, the remaining silver ingots were just enough for her to upgrade the train one more level.
Bai Cheng imdiately submitted these materials, and the locomotive once again t the Advancent conditions, then a white light flashed, completing the upgrade in an instant.
But compared to just now, this change was quite significant, making Bai Cheng montarily stunned.
The interior of the locomotive now had wooden furnishings, complented by exquisite leather accents, no longer appearing crude but rather exuding a retro style.
Looking outside the train, the original green armor had completely turned silvery-white, and the train body had softened its edges, gaining streamlined contours, as if transforming into a modern train.
However, compared to the appearance, Bai Cheng focused more on the interior.
At the very least, the train's strength increased, and its speed improved.
【Train: Steam Train】
【Level: lv.6】
【Armored Core: Space Matrix】
【Maximum number of connectable carriages: 5】
【Maximum speed: 85km/h】
【Employee No. 1: Scarlet Fla, General Rank Four.】
【Employee No. 2: Zi Yuan, General Rank Three.】
【Employee No. 3: Lü Duo, General Rank One.】
【Employee No. 4: Azure Bird, Elite Rank Nine.】
【Added component: Employee Watchtower】
【Upgrade requirents: 0/2000 ancient gold ingots, 0/10 train cores.】
What surprised Bai Cheng was that the types of materials required for the upgrade had once again decreased, but a new type of mineral she had never encountered before had appeared.
“It seems the train will be difficult to upgrade further in the short term,” Bai Cheng closed the information.
Moreover, the train's current speed was completely sufficient; if it could continue to improve, it would eventually catch up to the powered railcar's speed.
“So the carriages' levels cannot fall behind, especially the last carriage.”
Bai Cheng then slid the screen to continue upgrading the train's three carriages.
With a slight obsession with order, she didn't upgrade them one by one this ti but raised all three carriages to the sa level in one go.
As the train's body finished flashing, the entire train suddenly lengthened.
Compared to before, the changes were quite significant; the length, width, and appearance of the three carriages beca completely identical.
The entire carriage was also covered in dark green tal, no longer resembling a crude wooden hut as before.
Even the original wooden doors beca thick iron doors, and the connecting corridors between the carriages widened, gaining tal railings.
As for the carriage width, it synchronized with the locomotive, now approaching three ters; its length, estimated by Bai Cheng's steps, also reached nearly ten ters.
Although it was still the original three carriages, the overall space had clearly received a huge upgrade.
It was no exaggeration to say that the current carriages were almost indistinguishable in size from modern train carriages.
Bai Cheng was very satisfied, and her gaze turned to the information on the screen.
【Na: #1 / #2 / #3 Carriage】
【Level: lv.5 / lv.5 / lv.5】
【Train Core Attributes: Wild Growth / Pristine Ice Seal / Psionic Energy Infusion】
【Upgrade requirents: 0/500 silver ingots, 0/5 train cores (0/10)】
“The upgrade materials aren't outrageous, but I don't have any silver ore now.”
Bai Cheng made up her mind that before leaving the Lava Volcano, she must gather enough silver ore.
“I wonder what changes the powered railcar has undergone, and if its speed has increased.”
After all this effort, the entire train had undergone various degrees of upgrades, and the supplies she had just accumulated, except for fuel, were almost completely ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ depleted.
“Hmm, if possible, it would be best to have Zi Yuan and the others also raise their levels to the peak of the General Rank.”
After all, besides silver ore, what made Bai Cheng happy here were the large groups of magical beasts that occasionally attacked.
Accumulating supplies and raising levels, these were currently the most important tasks.
Bai Cheng even had the thought that after the mission ended, she would stay in this cursed place for a few more days.
What was a doomsday world to others was a perfect place for her.
After everything was settled, Bai Cheng turned to continue using her talent to upgrade items inside the train.
anwhile, outside the Advancent Station.
Tang Yan and the others' train began to slowly approach the Station; the huge triangular canopy had not yet completely turned to ash, and everyone hadn't even had ti to clearly see the situation inside the Station.
The train had just begun to decelerate when several ssages imdiately popped up on the driver's screen.
【Advancent Mission entering cooldown, Station about to close!】
【All Survivors inside the Station, please depart within thirty minutes!】
Tang Yan's smile suddenly froze, and he stood stunned in place, his pupils widening continuously.
“How the hell is this possible?!”
He couldn't believe it, but what followed was an unspeakable rage.
Tang Yan, furious, punched the train door, venting his emotions.
“Bai Cheng! I'll kill you!!”
Bang! The train door made a loud noise, and his finger bones instantly bled profusely.
Tang Yan's body rose and fell, and he gasped for air.
Chen Xiao quickly comforted him, and even Xiao Ran, who usually loved to mock, looked like he wanted to say sothing but ultimately chose not to speak.
The carriage fell into a dead silence; no one spoke.
But they were all Pioneers, and they understood that missing this opportunity ant there would be no more chances for Advancent before the Pioneer Trial began.
Could they, as ordinary-level individuals, gain an advantage?
Or rather, could the plan to jointly encircle and suppress Bai Cheng with other Pioneers still proceed smoothly?
A dark cloud hung over their hearts, but Tang Yan, unwilling to give up, was still determined.
He roared, “Contact the Pioneers who haven't entered the Lava Volcano yet; no matter the cost, make sure they arrive on the last day!”
In that case, the Pioneer Trial would be delayed and forcibly activated after seven days, and Tang Yan and the others would naturally get another chance for Advancent.
Otherwise, according to the current trend, the trial might begin not even tomorrow, but today.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao imdiately turned to post the ssage.
But at that mont, several ssages suddenly popped up on the screen, instantly stunning everyone.
【All Pioneers have arrived in the Lava Volcano area.】
【Pioneer Trial (Two) activated!】
