101 Chapter - Lava Volcano
Whoosh—!
Steam billowed and churned, as the wheels ground against the tracks, slowly moving forward.
The enormous triangular curtain in front of her vanished into ash, and an intensely dazzling white light instantly engulfed the steel behemoth within the Station.
Before Bai Cheng and Yu Nian could even adapt to the strong light, they were first hit by a wave of heat.
It was hot and dry, as if the entire earth was being roasted.
Bai Cheng opened her eyes and found that the train was now traveling over a reddish-black mountainous plain.
The surrounding land was cracked and barren, with nothing but exposed ground.
Further in the distance were several low-lying volcanoes, from whose craters black smoke continuously billowed upwards, connecting to a dim sky, as if they could erupt at any moment.
If the previous frigid snowy mountains made the survivors feel like they were in a forgotten corner of the world, then the Lava Volcano before them was a truly apocalyptic scene.
"Lava Volcano..." Bai Cheng frowned slightly.
Although the windows were not open, the temperature inside the entire carriage rapidly increased the moment the train entered this area.
At this moment, both Bai Cheng and Yu Nian's foreheads were covered in fine beads of sweat.
"This time, it won't be some kind of heat erosion again, will it?" Yu Nian complained as she took off her cotton coat.
Soon, she was left with only a black sports bra on her upper body, and she showed no intention of putting on a short-sleeved shirt.
Yu Nian was most afraid of heat.
There was also a boiler at the front of the train, and she was already drenched in sweat.
"Damn it, it must be over forty degrees!"
"Carriage 2 is fused with ice elements, so it should still be cool there," Bai Cheng said.
At this point, she had also changed back into her summer clothes, with a loose short-sleeved shirt covering her entire upper body, and white tights on her lower body completely covering her straight long legs.
For legendary clothes with temperature-regulating functions, to be cooler in this environment, the more area they covered, the better.
Yu Nian had already slipped away, while Bai Cheng's gaze remained fixed on the world outside the window, as if she had discovered something, she turned and opened the train door again.
The scenery outside receded rapidly, and waves of heat rushed in.
But what entered the carriage was not just wind, but also ash resembling snowflakes.
They were like ash formed after paper or the triangular curtain had burned, and a light touch would turn them into powder that dissipated into the air.
Bai Cheng frowned; she felt as if all these dirty things had been inhaled into her lungs.
But fortunately, she found that her body had no abnormalities.
"Could it just be simple air pollution?" Bai Cheng even began to doubt.
"The current time is six in the morning." She closed the car door, glanced at the screen to confirm there were no special prompts, and then turned her attention to the detection platform.
【Current Area: Lava Volcano】
【Current Status: Ash Rain】
【Distance to Next Station: 3999km】
"Ash Rain?" Bai Cheng immediately clicked the question mark next to the status, and more detailed information popped up on the detection platform.
【Ash Rain: After the ash rain from the sky ends, it will summon the monsters of this land. Each time it falls, the summoned monsters will be stronger!】
Bai Cheng understood: "So, when the Ash Rain status exists, it's actually safe?"
She looked out at the desolate scenery outside the window, silently praying.
Stop quickly, stop quickly!
If the monsters revived like this, wouldn't her employees be able to gain a lot of experience points!
And after multiple terrain changes, Bai Cheng also gradually discovered a pattern.
The more normal the environment, the scarcer the resources, and the more difficult the environment, the easier it would be to obtain certain special resources.
For example, minerals in the frigid snowy mountains, wood in the dark forest, as for this Lava Volcano... could it be experience points?
"I hope it doesn't disappoint me!"
Bai Cheng withdrew her gaze and took out her fate weapon molding material.
It was shaped like a large scythe, like the weapon the Western Grim Reaper used to harvest lives.
But this thing, as cool as it was, was it really useful?
"Never mind." Bai Cheng shook her head; anyway, the type of weapon didn't make much difference to her.
More importantly, she currently only had this one scythe as a fate weapon molding fusion material, and it was unknown how long it would take to find a second fate weapon material.
"Still need two more weapons as fusion materials..." Bai Cheng muttered to herself, then pulled out her two long-sealed legendary weapons.
Blade of Certain Death, and Blade of Severance.
The characteristics of these two small knives could be said to be very powerful, and coupled with Bai Cheng's current ability to instantly move, they were practically invincible when combined.
But now, there was an °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° opportunity to fuse all these weapon characteristics right before her eyes.
That was to forge a fate weapon exclusive to herself!
"Two more needed, looks like I need to level up quickly." Bai Cheng went and traded for two more daggers.
However, she couldn't start leveling up yet, because cheng book's cooldown hadn't finished.
After confirming the forging of the fate weapon, the information on the detection platform also changed at this moment.
【Distance to Next Station: 1000km】
The train's trajectory quietly changed, speeding towards the special Station at its destination.
Meanwhile, inside the Lava Convenience Store Station.
A figure stealthily sneaked in, but when she saw the ruins all over the ground and the vines crawling up the walls, her pupils dilated, and she was completely stunned.
"Isn't it a convenience store? Convenience... store, where is it?"
"Where's the boss? Where are the goods? Where are the benefits!"
This Station had absolutely nothing!
She immediately clenched her fists in anger, gritting her teeth and saying, "It must have been that guy!"
Then, she stood rooted to the spot and activated her ability.
Her brown pupils suddenly turned azure, and a scene appeared in her mind at this moment.
That was the original appearance of the Lava Convenience Store, clean and tidy, and in her first-person view, there were six other people accompanying her.
At this time, everyone was returning to the train with supplies, and as soon as they entered the passage, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and someone immediately spoke.
"Damn, that convenience store boss kept staring at us, it was so creepy!"
"But fortunately, no rules were triggered, and we had a good harvest this time!"
"Tang Ge, is the next area the volcano?"
......
Soon, information about the Pioneer Trial popped up on the train's screen, and Tang Yan, who was leading, immediately changed his expression.
"How could the mission start in the volcano? Someone entered the volcano before us!"
Tang Yan frowned, his tone certain: "It must be Bai Cheng."
At this moment, the scene in her vision began to blur, and the dazed girl suddenly woke up.
Her eyes flickered with disbelief: "It's actually Bai Cheng?!"
"It seems she has already merged the train, and her teammate is Vanguard Yu Nian, who she seems to have known for a long time?"
A hint of jealousy flashed in the girl's eyes, and thinking about how all the resources in her Station had been plundered by the other party made her even more furious.
"I must speed up Tang Yan's idiotic plan."
"Even if you have a legendary employee, so what? I don't believe you can defeat all the Pioneers!"
And soon, the news that Bai Cheng had a legendary employee mysteriously spread throughout the entire channel...
