"I didn't expect the black fog to spread so quickly; I remember it was only 15 kilometers per hour at the beginning."

Su Yuan immediately spotted the key information in that row of data.

He knew perfectly well what that extra 5,000 kilometers per hour meant for those train conductors who were barely passing the test.

When the speed of the black fog catches up with the speed of the train, it will be the end of them.

Su Yuan didn't think much of it and clicked into the new module.

The original building workshop and life workshop have disappeared, replaced by a brand new interface called "Plant Technology".

Plant Technology

[1. Observer Sentinel: Requires 200 units of flesh energy. After feeding, a special sentry with detection capabilities will grow on the top of the train, providing 360-degree surveillance of the surroundings with a maximum detection radius of 50 meters. (Unlock requires: 3 Train Coins)]

[2. Hardened Wood Layer: Requires 300 units of Flesh Energy. After feeding, it will greatly increase the train's front-end ramming ability, easily breaking through most obstacles. (Unlock requires: 3 Train Coins)]

3. Entangling Killer Vines: Requires 1000 units of Flesh Energy. After feeding, the activity of the vines outside the train will be greatly increased, allowing them to autonomously hunt any creatures that approach the train without affecting its speed. (Unlocking requires: 15 Train Coins)

[4. Plant Kitchen: Requires 300 units of Flesh Energy. Generates a brand new carriage with a new cooking system made of plants. (Unlock requires 5 Train Coins)]

5. Purifying Vine: Requires 500 units of Flesh Energy. Generates a special vine that can purify water sources by absorbing and releasing water. (Unlock requires 5 Train Coins)

6. Luxury Plant Lounge: Requires 1000 units of Flesh Energy. Generates a special rest carriage filled with purifying plants, maintaining a constant temperature, and releasing calming hormones, providing an excellent resting environment. (Unlock requires: 15 Train Coins)

7. Acid Firework: Requires 3000 units of flesh energy. Generates a special flower on the roof that stores energy to fire highly corrosive acid. (Unlock requires 30 Train Coins)

"So that's how it is." After reading all the information, Su Yuan finally understood.

This car has come to life completely.

No longer do we need to piece together those pieces of wood and iron; now, it only needs one thing—flesh and blood.

Given enough blood and flesh energy, it can grow anything it wants.

So it's much more convenient. Heaven knows how difficult it is to obtain some special materials. Upgrading this train, including adding various extra functions, only requires flesh and blood.

One kilogram of ordinary flesh and blood can be converted into approximately one unit of flesh and blood energy; the conversion rate is even higher for special organisms.

"The entangled killer vines should correspond to the original combat system. That acid firework... is quite interesting. I imagine that other level 3 trains will also have a powerful weapon module after reaching level 3."

Su Yuan stroked his chin, then suddenly remembered something and turned to ask Xiao Huo, "Why is my track changer and hidden carriage receiver functions missing from the panel?"

Little Fire chuckled and pointed to the two thick vines slowly swaying outside the window: "Master, isn't that it? This function is already built into our system, no need to unlock it separately, we can use it for free!"

Su Yuan looked in the direction he pointed and nodded in understanding.

Indeed, with these two agile giants around, changing tracks or towing back hidden carriages is just a matter of thinking about it.

Without further hesitation, Su Yuan took out the fifty units of shark meat from the warehouse.

Each unit of shark meat weighs five kilograms, and these fifty units piled up in the carriage looked like a small mountain of meat.

Come to think of it, such a big shark, if it only loses a few dozen kilograms of meat, it would be too meager.

"Where do we feed them now?" Su Yuan asked Xiao Huo, looking at the pile of meat.

Little Fire stretched out his short finger and pointed to the oddly shaped pitcher plant in the corner: "Look, just throw it in here."

Su Yuan: "..."

He looked at the "plant toilet" that emitted a faint fragrance, his expression somewhat indescribable.

However, he still had bread and canned goods, so he wasn't interested in dealing with the pile of raw meat and simply decided to avoid seeing it.

Su Yuan picked up pieces of shark meat and stuffed them all into the pitcher plant's "mouth".

The peculiar plant toilet made a "gurgling" sound, and its two thick valves wriggled, quickly swallowing all the pieces of meat clean.

Immediately afterwards, a notification sound came from the control panel.

The train gains 250 units of Flesh Energy, which can be used for construction or temporary speed boosts.

"What a pity, we didn't bring back that mermaid flesh... no, that human flesh." The thought flashed through Su Yuan's mind, then he shook his head. "Oh well, let's just bury it and let it rest in peace."

Su Yuan sighed and glanced at the train upgrade interface again.

Upgrading a train to level four requires a full 5000 units of flesh and blood energy.

That translates to five tons of meat.

"It's alright. If we come across a suitable hunting platform, we can take care of it in one go."

As Su Yuan pondered this in his mind, his nerves, which had been tense for so long, finally relaxed completely, and he felt a wave of comfort wash over him.

Just then, a blinding red light suddenly flashed on the control panel.

Little Fire's voice immediately rang out: "Master, although we've broken free from the direct control of the train world and can no longer receive individual event broadcasts, the world announcements will still be synchronized."

"New rules are in effect, go check them out!"

Su Yuan had originally planned to use the "Deep Sea Favorite" talent core during his free time, but upon hearing this, he couldn't care less and quickly walked to the control panel and opened the chat interface.

As soon as it was opened, an overwhelming chorus of wails erupted.

The number of online users on the world channel has dropped to 3100.

[3126/5000]

"Holy crap! What's going on? I was driving perfectly fine when a giant scorpion suddenly darted out from the tracks and almost flipped my car over!"

"You're lucky. I just passed by some ruins, and a swarm of bat-like things flew out and kept banging on my car window. Damn, it scared me to death!"

The beginner phase is over...

[Damn it, you beasts! Are you trying to kill us?! We were already living in fear, and now even traveling isn't safe!]

[It's all over, it's all over. My car is only slightly faster than the black mist. If the monster slows me down even a little bit...]

Su Yuan ignored the wails of these people and focused his gaze directly on the blood-red announcement pinned to the top of the channel by the system.

[Announcement: Currently, except for those who have been stranded for extended periods or died due to special circumstances, 99.9% of train conductors have left platform 3, and the novice conductor protection period has officially ended.]

[Trains will no longer be absolutely safe on the tracks; beware of ambushes from unknown creatures.]

[Furthermore, the black fog will continue to spread at an accelerated rate; all train conductors are urged to do their utmost to survive.]
