Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

Chapter 266 Initial Contact with the Crimson Flame Mountains

Sofia didn't participate in everyone's playful antics; she just focused on cooking.

A touch of lemon juice, a whole bubble fruit, a minty magical crop, iceleaf extract, and a dash of slime gel.

Sophia then placed it on the magic stove and began the blending process.

It took about 10 minutes to complete the process, and a faint icy glow emanated from Sofia's hand.

Finally, turn off the fire, pour the liquid in the pot into the mold, and use ice magic to cool it down.

A simple secret recipe: [Refreshing Jelly] is ready!

One set of materials yielded six finished products.

[Refreshing Jelly]

[No grade]

[After use, it maintains the user's body temperature within a comfortable range and continuously restores the body from the erosion caused by fire elements.]

“I made 36 portions in total, one for each person. Let’s distribute them.” Sophia picked up a rag and started wiping the stove. “The duration of the effect is uncertain, depending on individual resistance and the intensity of external elemental erosion. We’ll try it out later.”

Su Li took the jelly and put it in her inventory.

Over the years, Sofia's secret recipes have also improved significantly. Three years ago, Sofia could only use locally sourced, specific ingredients to prepare her secret recipes.

Fruit teas and the like primarily rely on the inherent properties of the ingredients themselves.

Now, when she makes these secret dishes, not only are the effects enhanced, but the requirements for ingredients are also greatly reduced.

Then Zuli checked the distribution of supplies to the God of Pioneers.

Burn ointment*6

[Iron Grade]

[Treats most burns and removes residual fire elements from the wound.]

Su Li distributed the medicine and then instructed Song Mingyu, "Mingyu, as usual, try reversing it."

The reverse engineering efforts over the years haven't been ideal, but there have always been some gains.

Yes, it's funny that primitive people tried to reverse-engineer a solar-powered watch but only learned how to tighten screws. However, for primitive people, understanding the structure of a screw was a significant advancement.

After receiving the supplies, Su Li and his team picked up their equipment, put on gas masks, and entered the disinfection room.

After the reassuring sound of the airlock door releasing air, Zu Li and the others stepped off the train.

"Wow! It's hot."

Su Li leaned back, experiencing what it meant to hit a hot wall.

After stepping off the train, the elemental erosion within his body intensified, but for Su Li, it still hadn't reached his armor-piercing threshold.

Assessment complete. The armor penetration line is too low, below average for a mid-range cup. Let's wait for the official buff.

While everyone was getting used to the environment, Su Li took a look around this world with its fresh food lights.

Large swathes of bare rock, black and yellow in color. Zuli walked to a black rock and pinched it with her hand.

It actually crushed it.

Su Li kneaded the thing in her hands and could vaguely feel the power of life within it.

"Is it alive?"

Zuli picked up the black 'rock' with her hand and examined it carefully.

Sure enough, inside, Zu Li discovered some structures that looked like mycelium.

Following the mycelium downwards, it soon reached the ground.

"So, this thing is actually a plant?" Su Li pulled hard and uprooted the thing.

Song Mingyu walked over, took the plant from Su Li's hand, and carefully sensed it. "It is indeed some kind of plant. This plant has almost no magical energy; it's just an ordinary plant."

After studying it for a while, Song Mingyu put it down and, according to the agreement, sent it to Zhang Qiang, the liaison officer of the Blue Star civilization. Things with research value like this are encountered every time they arrive at a new world fragment; if every single one were researched, the train would be overflowing with them long ago.

They only study materials that interest them. Materials they're less interested in are sent to Zhang Qiang, who will then conduct their own research.

A few people spent some time here, getting used to the environment—mainly the gravity, and secondly the light.

The lighting here is really unbearable. Su Li felt as if she had returned to Earth and was taking an online lipstick shade exam.

In his eyes, everything was red, and the whole world was a vibrant, multicolored red.

In this situation, it is very difficult to identify.

There was no other way but for them to adapt as quickly as possible.

After getting used to it, Su Li called Sun Keke over. "Keke, do a divination. Which way should we go? Ideally, there should be a lone silver-level monster there."

The sharp-eyed Su Li noticed that sweat had formed on Sun Keke's hair, but Sun Keke had wiped it away with her dark magic. This made Su Li want to laugh.

Sun Keke pretended not to see Su Li's upturned lips and immediately began the divination. At this moment, she had to appear not to feel hot; if she wiped her sweat, she would lose.

Sun Keke's divination can be performed using props or by directly obtaining visions of the future. The different forms of expression have different costs.

She chose the easiest way: she picked up a small stick, stood it upright on the ground, and then let go.

With a thud, the wooden stick fell to the ground. Sun Keke, panting heavily, pointed in the direction it had fallen and said, "Go that way."

This seemingly joking divination scenario is undeniably effective.

After Su Li and the others got into the car, Song Mingyu released a magical energy source for Sun Keke, who was sitting on the sofa, to help Sun Keke recover her magical energy.

Following the directions given by Sun Keke, Zuli started the train.

With a whoosh, the train started moving, heading in the direction Sun Keke had indicated.

The train had traveled 400 kilometers, and the surrounding scenery was gradually changing. What were once barren mountains had transformed into a crimson landscape. The direction Sun Keke was pointing was precisely the path leading deeper into the mountains.

During this time, Su Li's blessing also continuously provided him with information about the location of the minerals. Over the years, Su Li had received this blessing more than once and had gained some experience, enabling him to determine the type of minerals based on the sensory feedback.

Based on the feedback just now, the ores along the way are mostly gold, silver, copper, and iron, and there are also a lot of coal mines.

These held little appeal for Su Li. His train contained 5000 units of elemental fragments and 500 units of elemental crystals of each element. Such a small amount of elemental fragments wasn't worth stopping to collect.

After repeatedly choosing the direction Sun Keke pointed out at the fork in the road, the train finally stopped beside a massive fissure. To the right of the train was a sheer cliff stretching for an unknown distance. To the left, there was a volcano constantly spewing lava.

Su Li and the others got out of the car and came to the edge of the cliff, looking down.

Below this is a huge lava lake.

In the center of the lake, there is a constantly churning fountain with golden-red lava rolling around, creating a unique and beautiful sight.

Centered on the churning lava in the center of the lake, the golden-red lava spreads outwards continuously. After cooling, the gray rock layers resemble a layer of seaweed in the water, rippling in the undulating lava pool, or like radial wounds that have been torn open again, writhing with scabs as the body moves.

Zurich had never imagined that magma could have such a wave-like appearance.

Sofia tugged at Zuli and pointed to the side, "Look over there!"

Su Li took out binoculars from her inventory and looked in the direction Sophia was pointing.

There, a group of monsters that looked like pangolins leaned against the shore, leisurely eating black 'rocks'.

Among them was a particularly large individual whose armor emitted an obsidian-like luster. If Su Li was not mistaken, this was the silver-level individual in this group.

At the same time, Su Li's blessing also reminded him that there were plenty of attribute materials and high-level ores around him.
