The "Survival on the Train" game has bugs, it's really laggy!

"Crunch...squeak...squeak...squeak..."

The ear-piercing, teeth-grinding sound of metal twisting and tearing finally arrived, echoing throughout the entire void.

The sound was like the devil's fingernails, frantically scratching at everyone's eardrums, making their souls tremble.

"No...it's impossible..."

The one-eyed man stared blankly at the screen, at the front of his car, which he was so proud of, being torn apart bit by bit, as if in slow motion.

He looked at the tough special armor, which was as fragile as a piece of paper in front of that menacing drill bit, and was easily torn apart.

He watched as countless parts, gears, and wires were frantically pulled out of the massive crack and then shredded into a cloud of metal powder.

He watched as the dark green drill, after tearing through the first layer of armor, continued its relentless assault, its momentum only increasing, tearing through the second and third layers in quick succession…

Finally, with an unparalleled, terrifying, and all-destroying force, it slammed into his driver's seat!

Boom—!

This time, a deafening roar finally erupted.

The enormous "head" of the "War Centipede" was torn in two completely by this impact!

A violent energy shockwave, mixed with countless metal fragments, swept wildly in all directions!

The driver's cab, where the one-eyed man was located, was the first to be hit!

He didn't even have time to let out a scream before the terrifying shockwave sent him flying, slamming him hard against the alloy wall behind him. He immediately coughed up a mouthful of blood and lost consciousness.

The dark green "Emperor's Path Devourer" truck, after smashing the "War Centipede's" head, seemed unaffected; only the monstrous drill on the front of the truck slowed its rotation slightly.

And then, it just... went right through.

Pass through the massive, still-burning wreckage.

The entire process was smooth, clean, and efficient.

It is full of violence, yet it also possesses a... captivating, eerie beauty.

In the corner, the treasure-guarding spirit, which had just gotten up from the ground, stared blankly at the miraculous scene before it. Its body, woven from straw, collapsed to the ground again with a "plop".

It opened its mouth as if to say something, but in the end, it only managed to squeeze out two words from its throat.

"Holy crap..."

In the void, there was utter silence.

The once invincible steel centipede was now decapitated. Its massive head had been split open like a smashed tin can, with countless sparks crackling at the fracture, and dark red flames erupting from the furnace, illuminating the surrounding void in a crimson glow.

Its massive body, stretching for several kilometers, lay paralyzed on the tracks like a dead snake, having lost control of its head. Carriages pieced together from scrapped trains collided and squeezed against each other due to inertia, emitting a series of teeth-grinding metallic groans.

The "Emperor's Path: Devourer" hovered quietly not far away, its drill bit slowly stopping its rotation and unfolding back into the six ferocious, murderous vines.

The surface of the vines remained smooth and new, without even a scratch.

The earth-shattering collision just now seemed to it to be no different than hitting a block of tofu.

"Master...Master...we...we won?"

Inside the driver's cab, Xiao Huo's voice trembled with disbelief.

It stared blankly at the huge wreckage on the screen, then looked at its own intact train, feeling as if it were dreaming.

What just happened?

We... killed that terrifying-looking giant steel centipede?

Just like that... he crashed headfirst into it and was killed?

"What do you mean by winning?" Su Yuan leaned back in the driver's seat, looking completely nonchalant, as if he had just crushed a mindless ant. "That's just an appetizer."

He was actually quite pleased with himself.

To be honest, even he himself didn't expect that the upgraded and mutated "Emperor's Path: Devourer" would be so powerful.

He originally thought that at most he would just dent the front of the other car, and then he would have to fight it out himself.

As it turned out, he stepped on the gas and smashed the person's head open.

The damage reduction from "Immovable as a Mountain," combined with the "Spatial Stability" property, and then the "ramming drill" made up of six deadly vines specifically designed to break armor, creates an effect that is simply a game-changer.

At the same time.

Xiao Huo's voice rang out again, but this time, it was no longer filled with the fear and uncertainty of before, but with an unprecedented excitement, full of desire and greed!

"Master! I...I can feel it!"

"What did you feel?" Su Yuan was taken aback by its sudden excitement.

"Energy! So vast! Such pure energy!" Little Fire's voice trembled. Its eyes, made of glistening fruit, were fixed on the huge train wreckage on the screen, emitting a green light that made Su Yuan feel a little uneasy.

"I...I'm so hungry..."

"I really want to...eat it!"

Xiao Huo pointed at the paralyzed steel centipede on the screen and muttered to himself in an almost dreamlike tone.

"Eat it?" Su Yuan was stunned when he heard this. "Are you kidding me? That thing is a lump of iron, not meat. How can you eat it?"

He remembered very clearly that the energy source of the "Emperor's Path: Devourer" was flesh and blood.

When did we start eating steel?

"I don't know... I really don't know..." Little Fire shook its bright green head, its expression a mixture of excitement and confusion. "It's just... it's an instinct! An instinct that comes from the deepest part of this car!"

"Just now, the instant we smashed that giant thing, a piece of information suddenly appeared in my mind!"

"It told me that the true meaning of 'Emperor's Path: Devouring Wasteland' is not merely about devouring flesh and blood, but... devouring everything!"

"Flesh and blood are merely its most basic 'food'! But this aggregate, composed of steel, energy, and... countless remaining fragments of the 'core,' is its true... feast!"

Little Fire became more and more excited as it spoke, waving its little hands in the air as if it could already see itself feasting.

"If we can just eat it, I feel... I feel like our car can evolve again on the spot! Maybe... it can even level up to level four!"

"What?!" Upon hearing this, Su Yuan could no longer sit still.

He abruptly stood up from the driver's seat, walked to the screen, and stared intently at the paralyzed giant steel centipede, his eyes gleaming with a greedier and more fiery light than Xiao Huo's.

Is it edible?

You can actually eat this stuff?

Can it be upgraded directly?

"Holy crap! Isn't this like a buffet being delivered right to my doorstep?!"

Su Yuan felt his heart pounding wildly.

He was worried that upgrading the train to level four would require a full five thousand units of flesh and blood energy, and how many monsters he would have to kill to gather that amount.

Now, a living "energy gift package" made up of thousands of abandoned train cars is right in front of him!

What's this called?

This is what you call having someone deliver a pillow when you're sleepy—and it's even studded with gold and diamonds!

"What are you waiting for?!" Su Yuan waved his hand, his eyes flashing with an unprecedented brilliance.

"Keep the fire low! Dinner's ready!"

"Okay!"

Upon receiving Su Yuan's order, Xiao Huo let out a strange cry of excitement.

next second.

The six killer vines that had just returned to their original state moved again!

They were like six awakened abyssal serpents, with an unparalleled momentum, full of greed and desire, as they suddenly stretched and thickened, and pounced fiercely on the steel centipede that was paralyzed on the track!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The vines left afterimages in the air; they were no longer simply piercing and whipping as before.

Instead... tearing!

One of the vines, like a nimble hand, grabbed a relatively intact old carriage, then suddenly lifted it up and swung it away!

"Snap!"

The metal hooks connecting the carriages snapped off instantly!

Then, the tentacles began to tear, and the ear-piercing sound of metal tearing apart rang out.

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

Su Yuan: "..."

He stared at the "plant toilet" that was bulging and swollen, with its two thick valves still wriggling, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

In the void, a truly magical "feast" officially began.

Six enormous, dark purple vines, like six destructive tentacles from the abyss, ravaged the paralyzed steel centipede.

Tear it apart!

Grind it up!

Devour!

Carriages pieced together from scrapped trains were easily torn from the "centipede's" body and then accurately thrown into the pitcher plant's toilet, which seemed to be perpetually insatiable, just like throwing away garbage.

"Clang!"

"Crunch!"

"Bang!"

The sounds of metal being torn, squeezed, and shredded were incessant.

That once invincible "war centipede" is now like a dead fish thrown into a meat grinder, powerless to resist, only able to watch helplessly as its body is dismembered and devoured bit by bit.

Occasionally, some turrets that still retain some energy will launch a futile final counterattack.

"boom!"

A shell was fired from a broken section of a wrecked carriage, leaving a long trail of flame, and struck precisely a vine that was "feeding".

However, it didn't work.

The cannonball, powerful enough to shatter a city wall, didn't even leave a white mark on the incredibly tough vines covered in a metallic keratin layer. It was simply bounced away by a tremendous recoil force.

Then, the attacked vine seemed to be angered.

It swung it violently, slamming the carriage it hadn't finished "eating" back into the air!

"Boom!"

A loud bang.

The carriage that dared to resist, along with its gun emplacement, was smashed into a twisted pile of scrap metal on the spot, then grabbed by another vine and mercilessly stuffed into the pitcher plant's mouth.

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

The pitcher plant toilet emitted a satisfied chewing sound, as if it were savoring a delicious dessert.

"Holy crap, this thing... it holds grudges?"

Su Yuan's eyes twitched involuntarily as he watched this scene.

He felt that after his car absorbed the energy of the diamond treasure chest, it seemed to be... becoming more and more "personalized".

Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, he couldn't say for sure for the time being.

However, looking at the energy reserve numbers on the control panel that were constantly and rapidly increasing, Su Yuan felt that this should be... a good thing, right?

[Current flesh and blood energy reserves: 8000 units!]

[Current metal energy reserves: 35000 units!]

[Current Core Fragment Energy: 4500 units!]

Su Yuan also noticed that, in addition to flesh and blood energy, there were two other types of energy.

"boom!"

A visible energy shockwave, like ripples, spread wildly in all directions!

The vines that were about to approach the carriage were actually forced back several meters by the terrifying shockwave!

"There's another trick up your sleeve?" Su Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he immediately perked up.

He knew that this should be the lair of those "railway scavengers," the real core cockpit.

It seems that the leader known as "One-Eyed Dragon," though stunned by his own attack, still has his subordinates making a final stand.

"Little Fire, don't be polite with it!" Su Yuan sneered and gave the order, "Crack open that tortoise shell! I want to see what kind of monsters are hiding inside!"

"Okay!"

Xiao Huo responded, and the six deadly vines suddenly stopped in mid-air, then simultaneously aimed at the black carriage that was still emitting a blinding red light!

The next second, six vines, like six hammers of judgment falling from the sky, slammed down with tremendous force!

"when--!"

A deafening clang of metal clashing resounded throughout the entire void!

Sparks flew everywhere!

However, to Su Yuan's surprise...

The black carriage, after withstanding the full force of the six vines' attack, shook violently and its red light dimmed slightly, but... it actually withstood it!

The surface of the carriage only had some minor dents, not even a decent crack!

"It's a bit hard." Su Yuan looked at this scene and touched his chin.

It seems these scavengers really used all the good stuff in their "nest".

"Again!"

Su Yuan refused to believe this superstition.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Six vines, like tireless pile drivers, pounded furiously against the black carriage, one blow after another.

Each impact produces a deafening roar and blinding sparks.

Each impact dimmed the red light on the surface of that carriage.

Finally, after smashing it more than a dozen times.

"Snap!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out.

The energy shield on the surface of that black carriage finally gave way and shattered completely!

Without the protection of the energy shield, the sturdy outer shell of the carriage was no different from paper in the face of the vines.

"Sizzle—!"

With a sickening metallic tearing sound, a huge gash was ripped open in the roof of the carriage.

The scene inside was finally revealed to Su Yuan.

It was a space filled with chaos and bloodshed, like a slaughterhouse.

Inside the carriage, there were scattered parts, broken wires, and... several mutilated corpses dressed in tattered uniforms.

It seems that the terrifying impact and tremor just now killed them.

In the very center of the carriage, in what appeared to be the driver's seat, sat several survivors.

Their faces were ashen, their bodies covered in blood, and they stared with eyes filled with terror and despair at the six hideous vines that had fallen from the sky.

"No...don't come any closer..."

One of the men, who seemed to be the leader, struggled to pull out a strangely shaped energy pistol from his pocket and, with trembling hands, aimed it at the sky.

However, before he could pull the trigger...

A vine descended from the sky like lightning.

"Pfft!"

A soft sound.

The man's head exploded instantly, like a punctured balloon.

Red and white, splattered everywhere.

"Alright, stop eating for now." Su Yuan stopped the fire in time when he saw the bloody scene on the screen.

"Take this carriage over here intact."

He still has some things that need to be "interrogated".

Especially the leader of the group, nicknamed "One-Eyed Dragon," who was knocked unconscious by his head injury.

He didn't believe that the leader who could organize such a large army of scavengers would be a simple character.

He must have a lot of useful information hidden in his mind.

"Okay!"

Little Fire responded and carefully used several vines to peel the tattered core carriage completely off the "centipede's" body. Then, like dragging a trophy, it slowly pulled it to the side of the "Emperor's Path: Devourer".

Su Yuan already had a plan in mind. He sensed a stronger aura from this group of people than from the players, but not from the Sequencers.
