Chapter 158: Beast King Inner Armor! Maximum Stamina Increased!
Purchase successful, beginning manufacturing.
Recalling the Processing Table, placing the blueprint and all materials onto it.
Fusing together, a faint red glow diffused outward.
The orc’s hide and that giant club were completely wrapped and devoured by the Dream Silk until they disappeared without a trace.
The silk fluttered, cutting itself.
A brand-new, nearly translucent thin garment appeared in front of Ye Qiyan.
[Beast King Inner Armor (Level 8)]
[After equipping, obtain abilities.]
[Beast King’s Majesty: All beast-type monsters will feel fear toward you]
[Beast King’s Heartblood: Can be bound after equipping, permanently increasing the wearer’s maximum Stamina by 30 points]
[After binding, this equipment will disappear, and Beast King’s Majesty will transform into a Train Captain Module]
?
All other abilities didn’t matter.
There was only one point that Ye Qiyan’s gaze was deadlocked on.
A 30-point increase to maximum Stamina!
This was more than enough!
Spending 30 Train Coins was well worth it, extremely worth it!
Picking up the feather-light inner armor before him, it was hard to imagine this thing was a piece of clothing.
Slipping it on, a system prompt asking whether to bind it appeared before his eyes along with the Light Screen.
“It can still undergo one Sublimation.”
Ye Qiyan was in no hurry. After waiting for a while to recover a portion of his Stamina and Mental Power, he ate a White Forest Fruit and eagerly prepared to begin the Sublimation.
A deep blue stream of light manifested.
In just an instant, the entire Beast King Inner Armor became even thinner than before.
So fast.
For the first time, Ye Qiyan felt that the speed of sublimating an item could be so rapid.
And…
“The consumed values aren’t that high?”
[Stamina: 90→30][Mental Power: 92→32]
It was only 120 points, the same consumption as upgrading a Treasure Chest from Level 7 to Level 8.
[Resplendent · Beast King Inner Armor]
[Resplendent: Increases a portion of Stamina for all allies within a certain range.]
Compared to before, it had an extra passive effect that buffed others.
Furthermore, its level had also disappeared.
“Not bad, it can be considered useful.”
“Let’s bind it.”
Binding successful. The Beast King Inner Armor dispersed out of thin air, turning into specks of light that hovered around Ye Qiyan’s body.
These lights drew close to him and merged into his body.
A faint red mark loomed beneath his skin, quickly vanishing without a trace.
His Stamina was growing.
Ye Qiyan could feel it.
The light faded, and everything returned to tranquility.
[Maximum Stamina: 140→170]
Clenching his fist, he swung.
Not far away, a large tree fell to the ground with a crash.
“Holy crap, have I become a superhuman?”
Ye Qiyan looked at this scene in surprise.
An increase in Stamina wasn’t just about Stamina.
Strength, speed, endurance, defense…
All physical-related attributes were improving simultaneously.
170 point, it had already surpassed the limits of what an ordinary human could achieve.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration at all to describe his current self as a superhuman.
Then, if just 170 points could achieve this level…
If he drank that bottle of Beast Emperor’s Boiling Blood to increase his Stamina by another 300 points…
Hiss…
It was unimaginable just how powerful his physical strength would become.
“This seems to be the first time my maximum Stamina has surpassed my Mental Power.”
Familiarizing himself with his current strength, at least he wouldn’t accidentally crush a cup when holding it.
With all Sublimations completed, the harvest from this station was also drawing to a close.
Recalling all the Beedrills, they had hunted freely in the forest, collecting a large amount of wild game, which was recycled through the Processing Table and packed into storage units to serve as food.
Not only that, but they had also gathered a significant number of orc corpses.
Once shredded, these corpses could serve as food for the Beedrills, as well as fertilizer needed for the plants in the Planting Carriage.
“It seems the storage units are about to run out…”
After going through so many stations, out of the 51 storage units in the Storage Carriage, excluding those three special units, the remaining forty-eight ordinary units were now down to just a few.
At the upcoming Platforms, if he encountered new materials or items, they would probably be completely filled up in no time.
But something like a Storage Carriage was not sold by anyone at all, even on the black market.
To obtain one, it currently seemed there were only two paths: either obtain a Carriage Exchange Voucher after completing certain tasks, or use an ordinary carriage to undergo Sublimation to randomly generate storage units.
Of course, there was another way.
“Sublimation, huh…”
Ye Qiyan stood in front of the Storage Carriage, gently stroking it as he pondered slightly.
The potential of this carriage was already exhausted, but that didn’t mean there was absolutely no chance of undergoing another Sublimation.
“Carriage Synchronization…”
If there was a similar carriage that could be synchronized with it…
Its potential would also increase accordingly, and at that time, it would be able to undergo the next Sublimation.
“Next time I reach a city, I’ll go look for one in the exchange.”
As time passed.
Having tallied all his harvests, Ye Qiyan returned to the Train.
He stood in the locomotive, staring at the departure countdown on the Light Screen ahead.
There were still over three hours left until departure, and his privileges had long been ready to trigger.
He pressed the departure option.
The tracks extended, and the void manifested.
Entering it, the world outside the carriage windows once again returned to the familiar wilderness.
“The docking time is really getting longer and longer. I wonder if I can still get something like departure authority.”
————
Time: 6:35:02.
By the time he returned to the wilderness, it was already three in the morning.
Having slept at the previous station, his mind was quite clear, with absolutely no desire to sleep.
In the carriage, he sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, staring intently at the screen of the game console before him.
As the in-game character’s final slash landed, the boss fell to the ground.
“Phew~ Finally beat it.”
Equip-less, level-less, defeating General Radahn in the game purely with raw reflexes.
“I wonder if I’ll actually end up in a game world at some future Platform… Ha~ Since I already have the Moonveil, I probably will, right?”
Throwing himself onto the bed, he was still not sleepy at all.
Just as he was about to switch to another game to keep playing…
The familiar friend notification sound rang out once again.
“Last time was when I was sleeping, and this time it’s the middle of the night. Can’t you find a less ungodly hour to talk to me?”
Putting down the controller, he brought up the Light Screen.
In the friend interface, Zhao Lin’s avatar was flashing.
“Huh? Oh right, I almost forgot about her situation. Was this girl’s previous station still lucky?”
Opening the chat interface, Zhao Lin had only sent a single sentence.
[“Brother Qiyan… I, I think something is wrong with me.”]
Something wrong?
[“What’s wrong? Is the Bad Luck still there?”]
Could it be that Zhu Xingtu, that Charlatan, had already dispelled the Bad Luck, causing it to return to Zhao Lin?
It couldn’t be that fast, right?
[“No, I don’t… think so? Um…”]
[“‘Think so’? You don’t even know if it’s back or not?”]
Inside her carriage, Zhao Lin, who had been sleepless all night, looked at the text on the Light Screen, pursed her lips, and replied:
[“I… I didn’t encounter any danger at the previous station, but… I didn’t find any Treasure Chests either.”]
This was indeed where something was wrong.
Not finding a Treasure Chest might be normal for anyone else.
But she was Zhao Lin, the Zhao Lin who possessed the Good Luck Talent.
She didn’t find any Treasure Chests at the previous station, which meant…
[“Good Luck isn’t infinite. Is that what you mean?”]
[“…Yes… Brother Qiyan, I can roughly feel that, unlike before, if I want to get Good Luck, I need to… accumulate time.”]
Had it transformed from a spiraling rise alongside Bad Luck into a simple consumption?
Honestly, this might not necessarily be better than the former.
It was just that her lower limit would become higher, while her upper limit might not necessarily be lower if she accumulated enough time.
However, this change in Talent meant Zhao Lin wouldn’t experience even worse Bad Luck after a lucky Platform, unlike that battle before entering the City of a Thousand Stars last time, which almost ended in total destruction.
Could this be considered a good thing?
