Chapter 76: Continuous Sublimation, Finding a Buyer
Desert Eagle, no, now it should be called skyhawk.
Its appearance hadn’t changed much compared to when it first appeared.
Aside from the slightly longer barrel, it only had an additional pale gold eagle pattern.
Opening the Train window, he fired a shot at a mummy in the wilderness that had awakened upon hearing the Train’s movement.
Headshot.
The power wasn’t very great, falling quite a bit short compared to the Ebony.
But relatively speaking, the trait of infinite bullets required absolutely no consumption at all.
If one day all his resources were completely exhausted, this gun could still be used in battle.
“Not bad.”
Putting it together with the Ebony.
Ye Qiyan began to choose the second item for Sublimation.
“A refrigerator, what will it become after Sublimation?”
Driven by curiosity, the double-door large-capacity refrigerator became his second choice.
“Sublimation.”
[Mental Power 120 → 100]
[Large-Capacity Refrigerator → Space Compression · Refrigerator]
The refrigerator itself had no level, nor did it after Sublimation.
However, after Sublimation, its appearance underwent tremendous changes.
The footprint, which was originally about one meter, shrank by about half.
Opening the refrigerator door, he placed a White Forest Fruit inside.
Magically, after placing the White Forest Fruit inside, its size actually shrank to half of its original.
Taking it out again would restore it to its original state.
After the refrigerator came the water purification device.
Unlike the one he bought from Shangguan Yingxue back then, the water purified by this Level 3 device was much faster and of much better quality.
The original one was directly phased out, but he didn’t plan to throw it away. He put it on the Trading Platform with a price of three Train Coins, and it was quickly bought by someone.
Now that his Trading Platform was connected to the City of a Thousand Stars, he didn’t have to worry about items below Level 4 failing to sell at all.
The only pity was that the three basic items—mechanical parts, wood, and Metal—were not as easy to sell anymore.
“Whew, how many times is this today? Never mind, continue.”
“Sublimation.”
[Mental Power: 100 → 80]
[Pure · Water Purifier (Level 4)]
[Can purify cursed/polluted/dirty, etc., water sources]
The potential was exhausted right there.
The effect was alright, and the speed wasn’t slow either.
It was safer compared to before.
Then, only the last one remained.
Planting Carriage.
The vegetables and fruits previously planted here were already ready for their first harvest.
Ye Qiyan climbed onto the roof of the carriage and reached out to touch the huge iron bucket placed above.
“Sublimation.”
[Mental Power: 80 → 60]
[Restorative · Plant Nutrient Solution]
[Can accelerate plant growth and make the grown plants possess a slight ability to heal injuries and restore Stamina after consumption.]
“Heal injuries and restore Stamina? Just what I wanted~”
Ye Qiyan’s face was full of smiles.
He connected a water pipe and sprinkler, spraying some onto all the plants in the Planting Carriage.
Including the White Forest Fruit Tree.
After spraying, all the plants exuded a faint milky white halo.
The entire Planting Carriage was covered by this halo, as if being in a wonderful illusion.
Ye Qiyan picked a tomato and took a bite.
Staring at his Stamina bar, after swallowing the tomato, his Stamina quickly jumped from the original 60 to 61.
It really did get faster…
Although it wasn’t much, he also had the Luxury Sweet Dream Bed, so wouldn’t combining the two be the more the merrier.
“Phew~ Done and done, I’m exhausted.”
This could be considered the time he performed Sublimation the most.
However, the consumption of Stamina and Mental Power was not nearly as much as casually sublimating something when he first came to this world.
Was this what they called growth?
“Right, there’s also Sister Shaya’s gift… I almost forgot about this.”
Patting his forehead, Ye Qiyan opened his mailbox, looking at the only email inside with a slightly complicated expression.
[Calculation Unit × 1]
[Note: You’re still a Level 4 Train, right? I’ll give this to you. If you don’t join a guild, it’s quite troublesome to upgrade to Level 5.]
Was this the feeling of being kept?
If he hadn’t undergone Sublimation, he really wouldn’t know where to get this Calculation Unit to upgrade from a Level 4 Train to Level 5.
But then again.
Without Sublimation, how could he have gotten to know Shaya?
Holding the Calculation Unit in his hand, Ye Qiyan placed it together with that Flame Stone previously gifted by Shaya.
He needed to find an opportunity to find a good buyer for these two things.
Presumably, quite a few people were eager to upgrade to Level 4 at this time.
Who should he sell them to?
Ye Qiyan thought of two people.
Zhao Lin, and Shangguan Yingxue.
Zhao Lin was not to be considered for now; she had no money in her hands and it would depend on how many things she could get at the Lucky Station in her next stop.
As for Shangguan Yingxue…
Ding-ding——
Ye Qiyan sent a message over.
[“How is that city of yours?”]
Originally thinking it would take a while to get a reply, unexpectedly the other party sent a message back very quickly.
[“Not that great, a very boring city, not as comfortable as being on the Train. I’ve already left, what about you? The City of a Thousand Stars seems huge.”]
That was pretty much the same as his feeling.
[“Left? What a coincidence, I just left the station, played there for a day, and it was fairly fun.”]
[“Looking for me for something?”]
[“Have you upgraded to Level mechanical parts”]
[“No, I can’t get the Flame Stone, and I don’t want to join a guild. What about you? Did you join a guild?”]
[“Well, sort of. The place I joined has a nice person, and I got a Flame Stone from her.”]
Shangguan Yingxue blinked, looking at the message in her flip phone and taking a deep breath. A moment later, she replied:
[“Name your price.”]
He just liked her straightforwardness.
Ye Qiyan chuckled and entered a price.
[“30 Train Coins, or equivalent items.”]
[“…”]
Shangguan Yingxue didn’t reply for a long time.
She knew very well that this price wasn’t expensive.
Because from other people, Shangguan Yingxue knew very well how troublesome it was to obtain a Flame Stone.
Her Talent [Mirror Moon] could only transform items lower than the Train’s level. She chose not to join any guild just because she wanted to try her luck in the Platform. If there was still no opportunity after 3 stops, she would have to resign herself to fate and join even if she had to be exploited by a guild.
Therefore, 30 Train Coins in exchange for a Flame Stone.
This price really wasn’t expensive.
But…
[“I don’t have that much money, can I buy it on credit?”]
[“No.”]
After refusing without hesitation, Ye Qiyan then spoke again:
[“At the next stop, if you can’t scrape together the Train Coins or items, this Flame Stone will be sold to someone else.”]
Zhao Lin’s next stop was the Lucky Station.
Exchanging a Flame Stone for all the harvests of Zhao Lin’s Lucky Station was also a sure-win, risk-free business.
He only intended to give Shangguan Yingxue a chance of one stop.
