Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

After waiting for several more hours, the train finally left the factory.

Ren Jianhan hadn't returned yet, so Su Li checked out her new train first.

Let's look at the appearance first.

The original connection between the cab and the carriage was unprotected, but now it is protected by a rubber-like material, so that people can walk between the cab and the carriage without being exposed.

All the windows have an outer layer of sealed windows that can be opened.

The various exhaust devices at the front of the vehicle have also been sealed. When the seal is activated, the exhaust gases can be either discharged or released into the interior for recirculation.

"If there's no air purification device, wouldn't we be suffocated by the exhaust fumes?" Song Mingyu said dejectedly.

Su Li agreed, "Yes, some supporting devices will need to be added later for this system to be considered complete."

The rear vehicle compartments have also been modified to be sealed.

The entire vehicle is 4 meters wide and 5 meters long. There's nothing inside. It's just a simple vehicle.

Ivan got into the transport vehicle and drove it into the cargo compartment. Then he closed the compartment.

Song Mingyu's eyes widened. "You're letting Ivan drive?"

“Yeah, I don’t know how. I just turned 18.” Su Li said, her voice both indignant and self-assured.

“Me too,” Sofia chimed in.

Song Mingyu sighed, "Never mind, I'll drive from now on."

As a 32-year-old adult, Song Mingyu at least has a driver's license... although she has never saved enough money to buy a car.

After parking the car, several people got in and began inspecting the interior modifications.

As soon as the car door was opened, the motion-sensor lights inside turned on instantly, illuminating a narrow room.

Su Li glanced around; the room was 2x4 in size, and the doors on both sides of the train could be opened to enter.

Four people went inside and then closed the hatch. There was a hatch on each side, one leading to the rear carriages and the other to the front of the train.

Next to the door, there is a control panel.

Su Li opened the control panel, which had several options.

[Detection of hazardous substances] [Spraying disinfectant] [Drainage] [Air injection] [Vacuum] [Door opening]

This is the disinfection room in the combat preparation room. It will be very useful in the world of spores and zombies. After exploring, you can wash off the virus from your body.

Su Li opened the door, and several people entered the combat preparation room first. Su Li walked to the control panel and inspected the preparation room.

The operations preparation room is quite spacious. Various shelves are placed on the right; these are the equipment racks for the operations preparation room.

[Equipment Rack]

After the equipment is placed, its durability will slowly recover. Once the durability is fully recovered, leaving it in place for another 6 hours will grant a 24-hour "careful maintenance" buff.

[Careful Maintenance: Attack and Defense Performance +10%]

On the left wall, there are two cabinets, one yellow and one blue, on either side. The yellow cabinet has a holy emblem of the god of pioneering on it.

[Support Supply Box]

Sponsored by the God of Pioneers

One combat item is randomly provided each exploration cycle.

Followers of the God of Pioneers will receive an additional special support.

Su Li raised an eyebrow. Well, following Old Deng on the expedition had this kind of benefit. That meant getting two free items every exploration cycle—that was awesome!

There is a holy symbol of a magic circle on the blue cabinet.

[Charging Cabinet]

Sponsored by the God of Wisdom

[Fast Charging Equipment Skill]

Each exploration cycle can charge a piece of Black Iron-grade equipment to 200%, allowing you to unleash its skill twice.

[Followers of the God of Wisdom can recharge once additionally.]

This cabinet is really practical. Zurich's Mountain Collapse and Sofia's Dream are both very powerful skills, and being able to use them twice greatly increases the output capability.

Between the two cabinets is a whiteboard where you can write things or project the contents of the manual.

After passing through the operations preparation room, we entered the life support equipment room. This room contained many pipes, tanks, and compressors.

Su Li placed the homemade pressurization device and the homemade oxygen generator on the open ground, and then checked the functions of the room.

Air compression storage

[Air can be compressed and stored, and then released.]

[Survival Conditions Monitoring]

[Real-time monitoring of survival conditions inside and outside the carriage; fine-tuning of survival conditions inside the carriage to make them suitable for the train crew; if a problem is detected, an early warning message will be sent to the manual.]

Aside from that function, it doesn't have any other features. But that's enough; combined with the oxygen generator and pressurization equipment, it's sufficient for survival in extreme environments for a period of time.

The remaining 5 meters of space at the front of the vehicle were left unmodified. This is where the boiler is located, and inside there's a small table, a sofa, a bookshelf, and a storage box for fuel. It's just a standard duty room.

Su Li walked up to the radar screen and gave the radar plug-in to the radar.

[Vehicle-mounted radar: Displays the terrain within a 5-kilometer radius of the vehicle, and shows the location of mineral deposits such as gold, silver, copper, iron, coal, and quartz.]

[Beacon: Provides constant direction guidance for trains in the manual; effective range 100km]

Zurich didn't install a generator because it wasn't needed for the time being. Currently, the main source of electricity on the train is lighting. Because of the upgraded carriages, the small storage spaces now have preservation functions, rendering the previously mentioned refrigerator unnecessary.

After looking at the front of the train, Su Li and the others went to the carriage.

The first floor of the carriage is very simple, consisting of four dorm rooms and a storage space.

I've already seen the dormitory's features, so I won't go into detail. The space is now 4x5 meters, a full 20 square meters, and it's one room per person, no longer the hamster's room. You can put some tables and chairs in it. The bathroom inside has also been reduced to 2 square meters.

Next, we went up to the second floor. The first thing we saw on the second floor was the newly built training ground.

Despite the training ground's small size of only 5x4 square meters, Su Li knew it was anything but ordinary.

This training ground requires a large number of magic energy crystals. There are 40 of each of the five elemental crystals, which translates to 200 elemental fragments of each element.

With so many elemental crystals used, you're saying this is just an ordinary martial arts training room? Su Li didn't believe it.

Su Li opened the door, walked into the room, and then her eyes widened.

Before him was a huge, blank room, roughly square with sides of at least 100 meters.

"Spatial expansion?"

Next to the wall, there was a control panel. Su Li clicked on the control panel to check the situation in the training ground.

[Drill Ground]

[Provided by War God]

Skill learning efficiency increased by 20%

[Recovery speed of magic energy and physical strength depleted during cultivation increased by 500%]

Using Silver-level or higher skills will damage the training ground.

[Training dummies can be set up]

The training ground may not be used for storing supplies or any other purpose. Violators will have their stored supplies confiscated.

"Wow, this is a great place to practice martial arts!" Su Li said excitedly.

The problem of martial arts training had been troubling them for a long time. The space in the vehicle was too cramped. Many of Su Li and the others couldn't utilize their skills effectively.

As cultivation-type players, Su Li and the others also need to practice their skills. Without practicing, how can they improve the power of their skills?

The four of them tested it out together in the training ground. After summoning the dummies, they could freely unleash skills on them. Furthermore, the training ground also had a shooting range, which was 3000 meters long—plenty of room for Sofia to tinker with.

After seeing the training ground, Su Li felt that the 1000 elemental fragments were truly worth it. With this training ground, their combat capabilities would improve rapidly.

Finally, Su Li placed the items she had previously acquired into the training ground, increasing its efficiency to 25%.

After leaving the training ground, it's just a short walk to the workshop.

The workshop occupies a total of 10 meters of train length.

Since it's called a workshop, this is where various prop parts are processed.

All workbenches can be placed inside the workshop, which will then integrate them. Only the workbenches are provided as needed, greatly reducing the space occupied by a large number of workbenches.

Su Li has several furnaces, all of which can be placed in the workshop without taking up any space. Later in the game, the workbench will get bigger and bigger, and without the workshop, there simply won't be enough room.

Besides this function, the workshop has another special feature: it can record player-created blueprints and then enable batch production, so players don't have to manually craft them repeatedly.

The last one is [New options added to the manufacturing function].

Zuli summoned a forging table, then opened it and selected the Iron Cross Pickaxe.

【Please select forging method: 1. Automatic crafting 2. Guided crafting】

Su Li understood; it seemed that the newly added feature was the tutorial.

Su Li chose to guide the creation, and then his body began to move uncontrollably.

Su Li jolted awake, wanting to resist the feeling of being manipulated, but as soon as the thought crossed her mind, the feeling vanished. "Looks like it wasn't forced control."

The peculiar feeling hadn't faded, and Su Li chose to yield to it. Then, her body produced iron ingots and wood, and she began to carve the wooden handle and forge the head of the pickaxe.

After a period of forging, a standard iron pickaxe was forged by Zurich.

After watching the entire process, Song Mingyu summarized: "It's like a tutorial, teaching you step by step how to make props."

Sofia, who was timing herself, added, "It takes twice as long as it's automatically made."

"It's quite useful. Once you know how to do it, you can modify it according to your own ideas. This is very helpful for our lives, careers, and studies."

After confirming that nothing was missing from the workshop, Zu Li finally entered the planting room.

The growing room remained largely unchanged, except for the addition of some plants.

Common crops include mangoes, tomatoes, potatoes, cotton, corn, strawberries, wheat, peppers, onions, and ginger.

The extraordinary crops include Blue Moonberries and Storm Melons seized from murder, three pots of Red Water Chestnuts from opening treasure chests, Perseverance Grass, Heavenly Origin Fruit, Hundred Herbs Ginseng, and Bubble Fruit that Zheng Hongyuan gave them before, and Hot Spring Fruit that they just traded.

A total of 20 pots of crops. The entire greenhouse can fit 40 pots if you squeeze them in. When these plants produce seeds, Zurich will fill the entire growing room.
