159 Chapter - Start The Promotion Mission!
This was Car No. 3, the new car that Bai Cheng had just acquired not long ago.
Originally, she had no plans for this space, but after Huang Yu furnished it, it became the temporary dining room for the three of them.
At this moment, Yu Nian had already taken her seat and immediately spoke upon seeing the two arrive.
“Xiao Cheng, I’ve chosen the material for my Destined Weapon’s shaping!”
With that, she took out a weapon that resembled a dagger, or perhaps more accurately, a throwing knife, and placed it on the table.
Both of them looked over in unison, but Bai Cheng’s gaze quickly settled on Yu Nian’s pretty face.
They had grown up together, known each other for over ten years, and understood each other perfectly.
With just one glance, Bai Cheng could tell that the Destined Weapon shaping material on the table was not actually Yu Nian’s preferred type.
However, perhaps she had already searched through all the loot that she and Leng Ningxue had acquired, and to avoid further delay, or to become stronger as soon as possible, she had no choice but to pick one.
Just as Bai Cheng was about to speak, Yu Nian interjected.
“Although I don’t really like it, at least it looks like a ranged weapon, and I can feel a certain resonance between it and my talent…”
“Resonance with your Restoration talent?” Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow, looking disbelieving, taking it as a casual excuse Yu Nian made to fool her.
She wanted to continue persuading her; after all, with a full-channel trading post now available, finding a desirable Destined Weapon shaping material shouldn’t be too difficult.
But Yu Nian insisted, and Bai Cheng found it hard to say anything more.
After all, this was Yu Nian’s own chosen Destined Weapon; she couldn’t interfere with her freedom.
“Alright then, I’ll help you prepare the fusion materials later,” she said, then looked at Leng Ningxue, “And of course, yours too, Ningxue.”
Leng Ningxue’s Destined Weapon shaping material had already been found long ago, but there hadn’t been time to forge it; this was a good opportunity to go with Yu Nian.
“Let’s eat first.”
The meal Huang Yu prepared looked at least very exquisite. He had prepared buttered bread with bacon and a glass of milk for each of them.
“This is just like breakfast made by a normal person,” Leng Ningxue said, finding it somewhat novel.
Yu Nian, seeing this, couldn’t help but ask, “Didn’t Huang Yu cook for you when he was on your car, Ningxue?”
She shook her head, “He didn’t have this skill before.”
“So what’s special about the food he cooks?” Bai Cheng was full of curiosity and immediately forked a piece of bacon into her mouth.
The next second, the aroma of the meat burst in her mouth, and a refreshing sensation instantly surged through her limbs.
Because she hadn't had enough rest before leaving Station No. 4, Bai Cheng had been a bit tired all morning, but now that weariness was miraculously swept away in an instant.
Bai Cheng immediately realized that this was the effect of the food Huang Yu cooked.
“This…”
Seeing Bai Cheng’s very expressive face, looking like she wanted to speak but hesitated, Yu Nian and Leng Ningxue also immediately ate with curiosity.
“Both stamina and spirit are recovering!”
“Exactly!”
“And I feel slightly invigorated, able to concentrate even more intensely!”
“Exactly!”
The three of them devoured their breakfast quickly, leaving nothing behind.
In reality, these foods were all semi-finished products from a convenience store, and the effects Huang Yu could add were very basic.
If the ingredients were fresher or more special, the attached effects would be completely different.
After the meal, the energetic Bai Cheng sat on the throne, passively gaining experience while upgrading the materials needed for Yu Nian and Leng Ningxue’s Destined Weapon fusion.
Although some legendary equipment was bound, and others couldn't utilize its effects, as a material, it had no impact whatsoever.
This was truly one of the system’s most user-friendly features!
Unbeknownst to them, the acid rain outside had stopped, either because they had driven out of the affected area or due to their good luck.
Yu Nian immediately took this opportunity to send the Azure Bird out to check the surroundings, while she herself followed Bai Cheng’s instructions and crafted an Exorcism Cross.
This item was eventually installed on the powered railcar, and she didn’t forget to add stealth coating to it to prevent attacks from magical beasts.
Bai Cheng certainly didn't plan to accompany the two of them to a special Station for forging Destined Weapons; they had to act separately.
Soon, time quickly turned to dusk.
Bai Cheng stretched, her gaze following to the time on her wrist.
“Five forty, it seems the rule of early darkness after entering the public area has also been changed.”
“Eight free attribute points again!” Bai Cheng first added attributes to herself, directly raising her Spirit stat to 59 points.
She immediately felt a sense of mental clarity and openness.
Spirit power was related to skills and driving Destined Weapons, and it was her most direct way to increase her strength, aside from her own level.
Then, Bai Cheng called both of them to Car No. 5.
Looking at the eight legendary weapons and one epic elemental firearm on the table, the two of them marveled at Bai Cheng's abnormal talent more than once.
“It’s all done, take them!”
“Also, I upgraded an elemental weapon for Nian Nian, which she can keep for self-defense.”
Because the upgrade of this epic weapon didn’t reach its maximum level, Bai Cheng’s talent consequently entered a one-day cooldown.
“Wow!” Yu Nian exclaimed with delight, excitedly rushing forward to give Bai Cheng a bear hug, even kissing her cheek, “Xiao Cheng, I love you the most!”
“Hey, hey, hey, watch your image!” Leng Ningxue complained without hesitation.
“Alright, alright, hurry up,” Bai Cheng quickly reminded, “There will be bugs at night, so you need to leave before dark.”
“Oh, right!” Yu Nian instantly reacted.
Although the powered railcar had been protected to the maximum extent, the thought of the green liquid covering the entire window still sent a shiver down their spines.
“Lü Duo, Azure Bird, you two must protect the two young ladies well,” Bai Cheng instructed again.
“Yes, Miss.”
The two put on their backpacks; due to the abnormal conditions at night, they estimated they would return tomorrow morning, so they packed enough food and water.
The Azure Bird took the two to the roof of the car.
With a whir of mechanical transmission, the two tracks on the car roof slowly lowered, connecting with the tracks laid on the ground behind the train.
With a clang, the powered railcar completed its separation, and the three people and one bird quickly drove in the opposite direction of the train, soon disappearing from Bai Cheng’s sight.
At this point, Bai Cheng also turned and headed to the front of the train, arriving at the loot altar to activate her loot quest.
The train’s trajectory quietly changed, beginning to speed towards the location of the first piece of loot.
“I’ll try to complete the promotion quest before they return.”
