Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

Su Li followed the monsters, jumping down the cliff and entering the underground hall.

The monsters resting underground heard Su Li's commotion and all looked over.

Upon seeing Su Li and his group of unfamiliar creatures, the monsters became restless. The adult monsters used their mouths and hooves to drive the cubs into the cave, then looked at Su Li and his companions with a hint of hostility.

"Ugh, ugh~" The camel demon that brought Su Li and the others down made a nauseating sound. Hearing this sound, the demons that had gotten up looked at each other and then relaxed their guard.

Su Li felt relieved. These were all his pre-booked employees, and it wouldn't be good if they were all killed in a conflict. Now that the monsters were off guard, it suited him better. "Looks like they consider us allies."

"That simple?" Ivan was a little confused. "Aren't monsters usually very wary?"

"It's shaped by the environment. In a normal environment, monsters need to occupy territory to survive, so they are wary of each other. But in this world, it's either life or death. Under the threat of the Cursed Corpses, creatures are natural allies. Our previous attack on the Cursed Corpses, and our subsequent lack of attack on them, is enough for them to see us as companions."

Su Li tapped her temple. "The monsters are very simple here."

Just as Su Li said, the group of monsters then lost interest in Su Li and his companions, and one by one they returned to their original forms, leisurely like a group of old men.

Only the little monster cubs ran out of the cave and surrounded Su Li and her companions. These energetic little creatures were very interested in the clothes Su Li and her friends were wearing, and with one charge, they bit into Sun Lili's skirt.

Unfortunately, Sun Lili's skirt could become blurred at any time, and the little rascals ended up with a mouthful of light from biting it. Far from being disappointed, they were actually very happy and excitedly nibbled at Sun Lili's skirt.

A few cubs, having eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, still wanted Sophia, but were scared away by Sophia's eyes that looked at them like food, and hid behind the adult monsters, trembling with fear.

After looking around and finding no monsters that could threaten his team, Su Li ordered, "Disperse on the spot and investigate the surrounding area."

The team dispersed, and each person began to investigate the settlement according to their own interests.

Zuli walked to the salt pillars, squatted down, and began to examine the materials.

Upon seeing the crystals, his first thought was whether he could use them to make crystal bottles or something similar to preserve the sacred spring water in the desert.

He picked up a piece of crystal that had fallen to the ground, used by monsters as a tool to polish their scales and teeth. The crystal was covered in tooth marks.

Su Li ignited a golden flame in her palm. After the flame rose, the surrounding temperature only increased by about 1 degree.

Su Li picked up the crystal and placed it into the flame in her hand. With Su Li's skillful control, the flame scorched the crystal into shape, eventually turning it into a glass bottle. Su Li handed the glass bottle to Sun Lili, "Lili, go upstairs and fill a bottle with holy spring water, then take it outside and wait a while."

"Understood!" Sun Lili took the bottle and disappeared in a flash.

Then, Zurich broke off a piece of white salt crystal from the salt column.

I crushed a tiny bit and tasted it.

It was bitter and salty, tasting like unprocessed sea salt.

However, this sea salt also contains a unique power.

Su Li carefully savored this power, "It leans towards life, holiness, light, and purification. Could it be used to prepare the Holy Spring?"

It has some experimental value.

Su Li broke off a few more salt blocks and put them into her inventory.

Before long, the remaining people had also finished their investigations.

Song Mingyu's side mainly investigated the plants on the walls.

"A magical plant, rich in nutrients, capable of absorbing fire elemental fields and producing light. It can be used to formulate some potions to treat fire elemental erosion. However, we already have better medicines; feeding it to animals requires creating a fire elemental field, so it's not very valuable."

After finishing speaking, Song Mingyu pondered for a moment and added, "We can give it to the Blue Star government; perhaps it can be planted near the volcano."

Ivan waited a few seconds, and seeing that Song Mingyu had finished speaking, he said, "I checked the surrounding mines and found an iron ore mine, but it's not very valuable to us."

Sun Keke continued, "I counted the number of these monsters; there are 204 in total. We can wipe them all out at any time."

Su Li nodded. "Then let's begin."

Having received permission, Sun Keke shook her bell weapon, and a black flute materialized in her hand.

She put the flute to her lips and gently blew, the light melody flowing like water from her fingertips throughout the entire shelter.

The cubs that were still active began to sway unsteadily, as if they had been drinking. This anomaly also alerted the adult monsters nearby.

[These monsters have pretty strong mental resistance.] Sun Keke noticed this anomaly immediately.

Suddenly, Sun Keke's shadow seemed to bristle, scattering into countless shadows that pierced into the surrounding demons. Then, the shadows of the pierced demons also exploded, piercing outwards.

In less than a second, all the monsters' shadows were pierced. As the power of the shadows manifested, the monsters' abnormal resistance was reduced.

This is Sun Keke's newly developed defense-reducing skill, [Shadow Infection], which utilizes the symbolism of shadows as a place to harbor filth.

With their resistance lowered, the adult monsters that had tried to resist became drowsy and lethargic. As the music reached its climax, all the monsters were brought under control.

They staggered from their resting place to Sun Keke's side, as if sleepwalking.

Suddenly, the teddy bear on Sun Keke's waist jumped up, its body enveloped in layers of black shadows, swelling to 2 meters tall. It lifted Sun Keke up and placed her on its shoulders. Then, the bear, carrying Sun Keke, swayed and staggered, leading the controlled monsters one step at a time, towards the exit.

The long queue was led all the way to the train. Song Mingyu floated over and cast a spell on all the monsters. A layer of pale green light enveloped all the monsters.

"The epidemic prevention spell is ready, open the door."

Having received confirmation from Song Mingyu, Su Li opened the manual and manipulated the small world to open a portal on the train wall.

The portal appeared, and Sun Keke's bear was the first to enter. Accompanied by light and playful music, the group of monsters were wiped out by Su Li.
