Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

After checking the train, Zuli returned to the restaurant.

Before long, his companions all returned.

Song Mingyu held a stack of documents, looking somewhat excited.

"What happened? Why are you so excited?" Su Li couldn't help but ask.

"We've developed a new drug." Song Mingyu couldn't help but smile. "It's a broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug."

"It does not use magical spells, is very inexpensive, and can cure most cancers."

"Blue Star City has entered the era of magic energy. The power of magic energy has caused many problems for the residents. We Blue Star people are creatures who live in a world without magic energy, and we need a certain period of adjustment to come into contact with magic energy."

“The magical energy we ingest daily activates life energy, but it also brings a negative impact—the incidence of cancer among our residents is constantly increasing, especially among children born in recent years.”

"This is the growing pain of civilization's first encounter with magical energy. There are three ways to resolve it. One is to embark on the path of magical energy cultivation, using one's own life force to suppress the uncontrollable cancer cells within the body, preventing problems before they arise. However, this method is ineffective for children. Allowing children whose minds have not yet developed to cultivate magical energy too early is too dangerous; the mortality rate is even higher than that of cancer itself. The second method is through reproduction and iteration, survival of the fittest, gradually adapting to magical energy. The third method is to use medicine to cure the cancer."

Song Mingyu smiled and patted her notebook. "After years of research, we have finally cracked this problem. The special medicinal herbs that I cultivated are being planted as soon as possible. Before long, our children will no longer get cancer from magic energy."

Su Li couldn't help but applaud, both for Song Mingyu's successful research and for their magnanimity—despite having become powerful, they still cared for ordinary people.

Song Mingyu blushed slightly at Su Li's earnest applause, but she couldn't hide the smile on her lips.

"What happened?" Sun Lili's voice came from the doorway.

Looking back, Su Li was immediately shocked.

Sun Lili was wearing a brightly colored, fashionable coat, a tube top, and hot pants. Her face was painted with colorful patterns, and she was holding a large bucket filled with all sorts of snacks.

"Hey, today was really fun! If we didn't have to explore, I'd love to participate in the competition the day after tomorrow." Sun Lili walked in casually, threw the snack bucket on the table, and handed Su Li a chicken leg. "Let's eat! This is McDonald's on Blue Star. I haven't had McDonald's in ages. I really miss it."

While eating, Su Li told Sun Lili about Sister Mingyu.

"Why does it smell like fried chicken?" Ivan's voice came from the doorway.

Ivan walked in with Sun Keke slung over his arm. Seeing Sun Keke's pathetic state, Sun Lili exclaimed, "Sophia said you turned Ivan into a cuckold, but I think you're the one who got turned into a cuckold."

“Mind your own business, we’re happy to do it!” Sun Keke rolled her eyes at her sister. “I’m much more reserved than you.”

Su Li couldn't help but complain: "I think you've already lost big time by having to compete with your sister in terms of modesty!!"

“Yes, yes!” Sun Lili puffed out her chest, seemingly proud of something.

"You!" Sun Keke rushed forward angrily, starting a battle between the sisters.

Ivan let Sun Keke and her sister play around, and walked straight up to Su Li. "Brother-in-law, I have something to give you."

"Hmm? What is it?" Su Li looked at Ivan curiously. "The Twin Lotus has been remade?"

Three years ago, after Su Li's Heaven and Earth returned to each other, the Twin Lotus Flower in her hand turned to ash.

Later, while exploring other worlds, Su Li obtained a greatsword of the Black Iron grade and made do with it. This was because the greatsword named Twin Lotus was made from very rare materials, the main material being a plant-type monster that possessed both water and fire attributes.

"No, that's not it. Those kinds of monsters are too hard to find, so I came up with another way."

Ivan waved his hand and took out a greatsword from his personal backpack.

Su Li took the greatsword and glanced at its attributes.

【Sun and Moon Twin Swords】

Silver Level

[Bipolarity: This sword embodies the power of duality. By wielding two opposing extreme forces through this sword, the blade will be tempered, increasing its stability. It can be tempered up to 99 times, with a daily loss of 3 layers.]

[Solar Prominence: Refining to level 99 will activate the power of the solar prominence, granting an additional metal stream attack during melee attacks.]

[Moonshadow: Refining to level 99 will activate the power of Moonshadow, granting additional ice blade attacks during ranged attacks.]

Su Li wasn't too concerned about the latter two effects. What he cared about was the dual-polarity ability.

His greatest requirement for weapons was sturdiness. When he fought, he would switch between extreme cold and extreme heat, and ordinary weapons would quickly break down under such repeated torment.

Therefore, he was particularly fond of the Twin Lotus, which was a weapon that could truly unleash his power. It is no exaggeration to say that after losing the Twin Lotus, Su Li had been thinking about it in his dreams for the past three years.

But now, twin lotus blossoms? I'm sorry, my heart is already filled with the Sun and Moon Twin Swords, and I may never be moved by a weapon again in this lifetime.

Su Li picked up the greatsword with great delight. The moment she held it, she felt an extraordinary sense of comfort, a feeling only found on twin lotus blossoms.

The Twin Lotus was equipment crafted by Ivan, specifically adapted to Zuli's physical condition.

This sword has the same feel to it; without a doubt, it was made by Ivan.

Zuli exclaimed with delight, "Ivan, did you make this sword?"

Ivan proudly raised his chin, "After pondering this for so long, I've finally taken a crucial step."

Ivan's blacksmithing career had stagnated for a long time. He could craft silver-grade equipment, but that equipment was all made according to blueprints designed by others.

This sword was entirely designed and completed by Ivan alone. He set the direction, conducted feasibility studies, designed the runes, and determined the proportions.

By completing this sword, he transitioned from a simple blacksmith to a master forger.
