162 Chapter - Heading To The Promotion Platform!

From leaving to returning to the train, Bai Cheng actually didn't delay much time.

It was just seven in the morning, and Huang Yu thoughtfully prepared breakfast for the two who had returned.

During the meal, Bai Cheng also took the opportunity to ask Huang Yu for some information about the Demonic Human race.

"I remember Ningxue saying that your race was already fixed when you were Epic-grade?"

"By the way, what's the difference between Epic-grade Demonic Human race and Immortal-grade Demonic Human race?"

Huang Yu looked a bit surprised when he heard ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ this, but he quickly explained to Bai Cheng.

"Young Mistress, the Demonic Human race's abilities are mostly support-oriented. Although I have some inheritances, I haven't actually seen other Demonic Human race. I dare to guess that the difference lies in their abilities."

"If even I don't have any offensive means, then Demonic Human race below my level would definitely have no combat power whatsoever."

Bai Cheng nodded, then gestured for Huang Yu to demonstrate his support ability.

The latter understood and stepped forward: "Young Mistress, I apologize for the offense."

After he finished speaking, a ball of yellow energy emerged from his fingertips, which he immediately injected into Bai Cheng's body.

The next second, Bai Cheng only felt all the elements within her body begin to boil, and even the elements lingering in the surrounding air became extremely active in her perception.

Her aura surged, and at the same time, the wildly overflowing elements within her body began to form a set of pitch-black Armored Core around her, entirely composed of elemental energy.

Bai Cheng could clearly sense that her strength had increased by more than one level compared to before the buff, but she still couldn't break through the Elite-grade limit and reach War General-level.

Just as the system had said, Huang Yu's support ability couldn't break through the major rank restrictions.

At this moment, she was already in an invincible state among the Elite-grade, but facing a War General-level opponent was clearly still not enough.

"Strange, it shouldn't be..."

Bai Cheng muttered. Huang Yu's support ability could be said to have comprehensively enhanced her various abilities, even to an exaggerated degree.

Moreover, their current performance was clearly superior to Ye Liangchen and his Demonic Human race employee, but the actual effect was still unsatisfactory?

Bai Cheng didn't believe that Huang Yu's support was just for show.

She voiced her doubts, but the answer she received was Huang Yu's extremely certain denial.

"Young Mistress, this is by no means something the Demonic Human race can achieve. If it were true, the entire Demonic Human race race would probably have long ago attached themselves to the strongest race in this world, becoming an existence above all other races, second only to one."

"That's true," Bai Cheng mused, stroking her chin.

"But if he has a talent that forcibly raises his level, isn't that even more abnormal, hey!"

"Young Mistress, the Survivors here are so strong."

Zi Yuan had been with Bai Cheng for so long, and it was her first time seeing others who could keep up with their pace.

But she didn't forget to comfort her Young Mistress: "But Young Mistress, we don't need to worry too much. If that guy is a specialist who takes an unconventional path, it's not surprising that he can reach such a level. But we are developing in a balanced and comprehensive way!"

"Hmm, I understand."

Bai Cheng got up and walked towards the front of the train.

But what she was worried about was that top Survivors from various channels were gathered here. If some of them chose to band together, their strength would definitely not be as mediocre as the rabble Tang Yan had gathered in the previous channel.

So, thinking back, if there was nothing wrong with Ye Liangchen himself, then allying with him didn't seem inappropriate.

Of course, this alliance was only a superficial, verbal form of alliance. Different channels couldn't form teams, let alone merge trains.

After Bai Cheng arrived at the front of the train, she first sent messages to Leng Ningxue and Yu Nian.

It was already daytime, but they hadn't returned yet, which inevitably caused some worry.

But with Lü Duo and Qingniao present, even if they really encountered other Survivors, they would have the power to fight, at least not falling into danger.

"Perhaps because the actual location of the Forging Station is in the Lava Volcano, this journey is a bit far."

"But Xiao Cheng, don't worry, we're already on our way!"

"Oh, and when you see our Fated Weapons, you'll be amazed!"

Bai Cheng felt relieved to see this. The Fated Weapons of the two were also fused from legendary materials, so their effects wouldn't be worse than her scythe.

She also began to feel a bit of anticipation and replied: "Then I'll wait for you at the Advancement Platform first!"

Although Bai Cheng still wanted to activate the Armored Core skill to accelerate the train, considering that she might encounter other abnormal statuses along the way, for safety's sake, she ultimately didn't use the skill.

She just let the train proceed at normal speed towards the next loot altar.

Moreover, because the actual distance between her and Ye Liangchen's two trains was not far, or perhaps because of the public Station.

For a period of time, the two almost always met at the same loot altar.

This was tough for the creatures there, having to face the slaughter of two War General-level individuals simultaneously.

The subsequent collection process went smoothly, and Bai Cheng and Ye Liangchen quickly gathered all the remaining loot.

After returning to the train again, Bai Cheng didn't hesitate and decisively activated the Advancement Quest.

【Advancement Quest (2): Path of Transcendence】

【Quest Details: The Station has been fixed as a special Advancement Trial Station. Defeat the BOSS to obtain an Advancement Slot.】

【Announcement: This Station is a free-type Station. All Survivors from other channels will receive a prompt and can enter and exit without restrictions. At the same time, you cannot invite Survivors from your own channel who are not in the public area to assist you.】

【Cooldown: 5 days】

【Hint: The number of Advancement Slots you obtain will be fixed (slots depend on the number of occupants on the train).】

Bai Cheng's eyes narrowed as she looked at the message on the loot altar.

"This way, I don't have to wait for Ningxue and Nian Nian to return. I can directly enter the Station and help them get the slots."

However, there was also some not-so-good news: the cooldown time required for the Advancement Platform became longer after entering the public area.

And this would lead to more Survivors from other channels who would absolutely not miss this opportunity.

At the moment the Advancement Quest was activated, Bai Cheng and Ye Liangchen were definitely not the only two rushing there.

"Are they trying to get an Advancement Slot, or are they directly trying to obstruct me?"

Bai Cheng sneered. Regardless of their purpose, she would not agree!

What was the difference between allowing Survivors from other channels to develop and remaining stagnant herself?

"No, I must reach the Advancement Platform first."

Bai Cheng's eyes darkened. This time, she no longer held back and immediately activated the train's Armored Core skill.

The next second, the train began to travel at five times the speed, reaching a terrifying 425 km/h!

Its speed was so fast, like a white streak of light, advancing at full speed through the deadly Rainforest!
