111 Chapter - Sleeping, So Comfortable!

The Blade of Certain Death no longer required charging up swings; instead, it was upgraded so that Bai Cheng would constantly charge it as long as she wasn't in combat.

The Blade of Certain Death also gained a self-buffing function, essentially serving as a trump card.

As for the Summoning Blade and the Blade of Severance, the former enhanced the strength of summoned creatures, while the latter, which originally only had the ability to sever weapons, was strengthened to sever everything.

It's no exaggeration to say that these four characteristics combined, along with the flexibility of spatial elements allowing free movement, make her combat power comparable to that of a legendary employee—that's not bragging at all.

The attributes of this Life Weapon can only be described as exaggerated!

However, Bai Cheng didn't underestimate herself. While she knew she had become stronger, she was far from invincible.

If facing an enemy significantly more powerful than herself... whether she could even touch them was another matter.

As for the charging effect of 【Ceasefire】, while it had no upper limit, who knew how long it would take to charge, and she couldn't attack during that time.

"Hmm, I shouldn't encounter such a strong enemy, right?" Bai Cheng pondered, after all, there should be a gradual process, shouldn't there?

The old man who forged it also saw the joy on Bai Cheng's face and smiled, revealing a set of missing, yellowed teeth: "How is it? Are you satisfied with this old man's work?"

Bai Cheng nodded: "Thank you."

After speaking, she twisted her wrist, and Burial Spirit transformed into a streak of light, entering her body. Then, she took out her backpack, preparing to pay with unlimited coins.

Since the other party was the owner of a forging shop and sold various materials, Bai Cheng didn't believe that the process of him crafting her Life Weapon was free.

"How much? I'll pay you," she asked.

However, seeing her intention, the other party waved his hand: "It's this old man's honor to forge such a material; no charge!"

Bai Cheng's expression brightened at this, indicating that the process would originally have required payment.

He continued, "I still have a lot of materials here, old man. Your companion here should also be ready to forge her Life Weapon, right?"

Bai Cheng looked at Yu Nian. She was still a bit short of Elite-grade, but forging a Life Weapon in advance didn't seem like a bad idea.

However, Bai Cheng was concerned that the remaining time before leaving the Station might not be enough for her to upgrade four more legendary weapons.

This would result in very limited improvement for Yu Nian.

Yu Nian looked around the shop and thought for a moment: "Em... I don't have an Armored Core yet. I want to forge it after my abilities are determined."

After speaking, she looked at Bai Cheng, seeking her opinion.

Bai Cheng also wanted to strive for perfection, as an Immortal-grade Life Weapon was truly powerful.

She nodded: "Alright, then, when the time comes, Nian Nian, you can come with Leng Ningxue."

The owner of the forging shop understood upon hearing this and said, "That's truly a pity, but the Life Weapon materials here at my place will always be discounted for you."

He didn't try to sell his weapons and equipment because he believed they were too trashy in the eyes of the two young women before him.

After bidding farewell to the strange old man, Bai Cheng and Yu Nian turned and left the Station.

The train soon departed again, and after passing through the triangular curtain, they returned to the scorching Lava Volcano region.

After all, the forging Station had no other purpose besides crafting Life Weapons. Although it was still early to leave the Station, staying there ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) any longer would just be a waste of time.

Bai Cheng looked at the detection screen.

"Distance to next Station: 2822km"

She then looked at the quest prompt on the screen.

"Quest Name: Pioneer Trial (Two)"

"Quest Status: Pending Activation"

"Progress: Arrived at Lava Volcano Pioneer (11/60); Remaining Time (6 days)"

"Quest Details: ......."

"There are a few Pioneers missing!" Yu Nian immediately noticed the anomaly.

Bai Cheng nodded: "They've probably merged."

After averting her gaze, she continued, "The Pioneer Trial quest will definitely require traveling back and forth between many locations. If we keep moving, it'll probably just waste fuel."

After all, it wasn't every time, like helping Leng Ningxue reach the Advancement Platform, that they could return to their original position.

But Bai Cheng guessed this was probably due to the change in terrain.

And with a quest currently active, Bai Cheng couldn't enter the next Station.

Since they would have to stay in the Lava Volcano anyway, she decided to stop the train in one spot and wait for the quest to begin.

After the quest was completed, they would continue their journey.

There were many benefits to stopping the train. Firstly, it saved fuel, and secondly, they could choose a favorable terrain to focus on grinding monsters.

Because they arrived here too early, Bai Cheng estimated they might end up staying in the Lava Volcano for more than seven days.

And as time passed, the monsters' strength would also increase.

Even without much explanation, Yu Nian immediately understood.

"Good thing we haven't properly explored this broken place since we arrived. I don't believe there's really nothing here!"

The two reached a consensus, but the train had just left the Station and still needed to travel for some time.

"Xiao Cheng, I'll go sell supplies directly to replenish fuel."

Because compared to trying to collect coal and charcoal in this wasteland, it was faster for Yu Nian to directly activate her talent and then trade.

"Wait, Nian Nian, why don't you just directly replicate coal?" Bai Cheng suddenly realized a flaw in her talent.

Yu Nian, however, gave her a side-eye: "Xiao Cheng, have you forgotten? My talent can't restore basic consumables..."

Bai Cheng immediately gave an awkward laugh: "Hehehe, uh... remember to collect some upgrade materials for the train too, okay!"

With that, she immediately ran off to other carriages.

Bai Cheng herself, of course, wasn't idle; she needed to use her talent to continue upgrading other items within the train!

As for grinding attribute points, that was just a bonus.

Bai Cheng summoned the cheng book. She tried to turn the pages, but the second page still wouldn't open.

She didn't pay much attention and instead chose to upgrade her bed.

"The original bed was too simple. Instead of the hassle of getting blueprints one by one, I'll just do it in one go!"

"Exquisite Leather Bed: 0/30"

Seeing this, Bai Cheng's anxious heart finally relaxed. She mumbled, "Good thing it's not accumulating sleep time...."

Lying down and getting up—that was a complete usage process.

After a series of intense sit-ups on the bed, and after an unknown amount of time, a golden light finally flashed by.

"Top-tier! Universe Super Invincible Luxurious and Comfortable Single Bed!"

"You have gained 1 free attribute point!"

Bai Cheng was slightly stunned. She had thought the single bed would directly upgrade into a double bed and then collapse onto Yu Nian's bed on the lower bunk.

Now, it seemed her imagination was a bit too vivid.

"But what kind of name is this anyway!"

At this moment, the single bed was no longer simply exquisite; the parts of Bai Cheng's body that touched the bed could clearly feel the mattress's comfort and softness.

When a bed is comfortable enough, its appearance becomes less important.

Moreover, Bai Cheng felt a refreshing clarity, like a slight tipsiness.

She immediately realized that this bed was extraordinary.

After jumping off the bed, Bai Cheng decisively went to the screen to check the information.

"Name: Universe Super Invincible Luxurious and Comfortable Single Bed!"

"Quality: Legendary"

"Description: Sleeping on this bed can accelerate your physical recovery and gradually increase your 【Physique】 attribute."

"Rating: Sleeping, awesome!"

"Are even the exclamation marks part of the name, Haki Bed....."

However, the bed's attributes were indeed powerful, and Bai Cheng was very satisfied.

"Increasing mental points in the bedroom, and physique points by sleeping on the bed—it's a perfect closed loop!"

Bai Cheng then prepared to upgrade Yu Nian's bed as well, but at that moment, Zi Yuan's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Miss, there's a situation."
