A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Cheng's eyes.
When she arrived at First Station and saw that the station type was a single-person station, she had already guessed that there would be multi-person stations.
She just didn't expect to enter a multi-person station after only two stations.
What would a station be like with multiple survivors arriving together?
Compared to worrying about supplies, the struggle between people was probably the most dangerous.
"And this Pioneer trial..." Bai Cheng suddenly realized that the colorful title the system gave them, the survivors, was not just for showing off.
Instead, it was very likely related to the subsequent journey.
【Pioneer Trial One: Pioneer's Qualification】
【Introduction: There are a total of one hundred slots for the Pioneer title (after server rge), initially distributed to extrely excellent survivors within the channel.
However, this is not enough to demonstrate the abilities of the Pioneers, so the title is not stable and can be plundered.
And the next trial is a challenge to individually test the abilities of each Pioneer!】
【Trial Outline: All Pioneers must pass the next station as the first place finisher.】
【Reward: One carriage.】
Bai Cheng knew that the subsequent Pioneer trial content was exclusively for them, the Pioneers; other survivors could not see it.
But what she didn't know was that what popped up in front of other survivors was a challenge with even more generous rewards.
At this mont, undercurrents surged among the Pioneers in the entire channel, while the reactions of other survivors were more like a carnival.
"Holy crap, what is this? I'm not seeing things, am I!"
"If I can get these rewards, won't I directly soar to the sky?!"
"Hahahahaha, I didn't expect this system to be quite biased, but I like it!"
"Brothers, team up, co quickly, only those with talents!"
"Are there any full teams wanting to enter the station together? Contact !"
"No, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
"Can the cowards just die? Don't seek attention!"
These survivors were very tacit, and no one revealed even a single word.
And the silent Pioneers, after seeing the channel information, at most only guessed that their treatnt was different from that of these survivors.
Pioneers could only enter multi-person stations alone, while ordinary survivors seed to have no such restriction.
Bai Cheng was not paying attention to the channel chat at this ti, but was constantly comforting Yu Nian.
Because after this Pioneer trial was released, the information it revealed was very clear.
Pioneers could only enter stations alone, which ant that Bai Cheng and Yu Nian, both Pioneers, would not be able to et at the next station.
Even if they were teammates.
This couldn't help but make Yu Nian a hundred percent dissatisfied.
"Why?! The system is creating opposition, I'm going to expose it!"
"It's okay, the trial only lasts for one station, and you've seen the reward, Nian Nian, it's a carriage!"
Without a doubt, this reward was incredibly important to all survivors.
A carriage was not just about expanding space for one's train; it also ant being able to summon one more employee.
At the current stage, as the environnt beca harsher and stations gradually more dangerous, any reward that could significantly improve strength had to be strived for with all effort.
After comforting Yu Nian, Bai Cheng then looked back at the screen.
"Public area... does that an I'll encounter other survivors on the upcoming journey?"
Bai Cheng didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
Because there was still nearly an hour left before departure, Bai Cheng, although she had returned to the train, was not in a hurry to depart.
She first changed out of her sumr clothes in the carriage.
Although they were constant temperature, they were like air conditioners without heating functions; they were only cool and not warm at all.
What's more, most of her arms and calves were exposed, so even if they could keep her warm, it would be like ice and fire.
【Barely Warm Winter Cotton Clothes: 0 / 25】
Although the number of upgrades for clothes had also increased, fortunately, the process was not complicated.
Finally, Bai Cheng successfully upgraded the cotton clothes to gold before the departure countdown ended.
【Top-tier! Versatile Cotton Clothes that can resist cold!】
【You have gained 1 free attribute point!】
The clothes were still on Bai Cheng, and she imdiately transford her top into a white down jacket, while her bottom was 'light-leg artifact' leggings and white mid-calf socks.
Soon after putting them on, the clothes, with their excellent insulation, made her feel a wave of heat.
"So hot..."
The temperature in the station was still the sa as in Muddy Swamp, which was sumr.
Bai Cheng seized the ti and quickly opened her personal information again.
The cotton clothes had given her a total of 2 free attribute points, plus the previous two small hair ties and Yu Nian's backpack.
At this mont, Bai Cheng had a total of 5 free attribute points to allocate.
She had originally planned to increase her strength and physique attributes as always, but then she rembered that Armored Core could release skills, and she imdiately hesitated.
"Releasing skills and such should be related to spirit, right?"
It was an inevitable trend for survivors to rge with Armored Core.
And Bai Cheng had always increased her physique to improve her inherently weak constitution, just for the convenience of survival.
But now she not only had two employees, but they were also incredibly strong, and nearly twenty points in strength and physique attributes were already completely sufficient.
Bai Cheng's eyes narrowed, and she imdiately made up her mind: "For now, I'll temporarily specialize in strengthening my spirit attribute!"
All five free attribute points were ultimately added to spirit, and her three main attributes also reached a perfect balance.
【Strength: 18】
【Physique: 18】
【Spirit: 18】
The significant increase in spirit made Bai Cheng feel clear-headed and refreshed.
After adding her attribute points, Bai Cheng signaled to her two employees: "Depart!"
After she spoke, as Scarlet Fla closed the train door, Bai Cheng imdiately released the brake lever.
Whoosh—
The whistle let out a long blast, the lights inside the turntable went out, and the giant triangular curtain in front of them slowly turned to ash.
As the train pulled «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» out, a dazzling white light enveloped them, and before Bai Cheng could adapt to the strong light, the chilling screams of howling winds already echoed in her ears.
Bai Cheng imdiately looked out the window; under the pitch darkness, goose-feather-like heavy snow continuously poured into the carriage with the wind, and the cold wind cut her cheeks like a knife, causing stinging pain.
The environnt outside was extrely harsh, as if the apocalypse had arrived.
The train also seed to be affected by the wind and snow; its speed consistently failed to pick up, instead, it seed to be encountering so kind of unknown imnse resistance.
At the sa ti, a prompt suddenly appeared on the screen.
【Warning! Your train is being corroded by cold!】
