Surviving on the train, my home became a hotbed of beauties!

Seemingly thinking about the skill book he had obtained, Chen Jing checked its attributes.

It's rather ordinary; it's not his preferred fighting style.

[Skill: Fist Power]

[Effect: Covers the fist with a layer of kinetic membrane, which can apply a blunt force effect. The damage is determined by the survivor's constitution attribute.]

Cooldown: Two minutes

This stuff isn't suitable for him because his physique isn't very strong.

Moreover, fighting with his fists is not suitable for him.

If it were a skill book about physical techniques, he might consider learning it.

After all, martial arts skill books can also increase his melee experience.

Learning martial arts techniques is putting the cart before the horse.

"You can take this skill book!"

Chen Jing handed the book on fist techniques to Li Qiya.

Compared to him, Li Qiya is undoubtedly more suited to this skill.

After all, Li Qiya's divine transformation can increase her physique fivefold, turning her original physique of over one hundred into over five hundred!

In addition, the force of a punch is determined by the individual's physical constitution to determine the damage.

This is undoubtedly more suitable for Li Qiya, a tanky warrior.

Li Qiya took the fist skill book and began learning the skills without saying a word.

He then looked at Chen Jing with a joyful expression, his hands brimming with strength, and his eyes showing a hint of eagerness.

"Train conductor, may I find a place to test my skills?"

Chen Jing looked at Li Qiya's appearance and pointed to the wall next to her.

"Go and try to hurt them."

He was also curious about how strong the punching power would be when the body was five times stronger.

Li Qiya stood in front of the wall and took a deep breath.

When you make a fist with your five fingers, a layer of tension membrane appears on the fist.

A fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

boom!

The fist shot out like a cannonball!

The powerful impact smashed the entire wall to pieces.

Chen Jing's eyes lit up when he saw Li Qiya's power.

Its destructive power is no different from that of a level 5 hidden boss.

He smashed the red brick wall with a single punch.

They're downright monstrous!

"very nice."

Chen Jing gave a thumbs-up, which made Li Qiya scratch her head a little embarrassed.

"Let's go back and eat and rest first. There aren't many resources to work on in the last few days of the newbie period."

Chen Jing took the map and glanced at it a few times.

All resource points have been taken away. To obtain resources again, you can only wait until the beginner period ends and a new map is opened.

"Great! I'm starving!"

Li Qiya patted her chubby belly helplessly.

Although her physical condition improved after being deified, her appetite also increased significantly.

……

Back on the train.

Liya, the elven little chef, then began to cook.

Chen Jing entered the driver's seat and began to organize his spoils.

The materials for upgrading the train have now been collected.

And it seems they also acquired a special piece of train equipment.

[Item: Crimson Heart]

[Level: 5]

[Quality: Epic]

[Attribute: Directly and continuously absorbs Crimson Power to power the train, and reduces the attention of Crimson Monsters.]

[Introduction: Endless energy! Spend it recklessly, young man!]

[Detect whether the target Crimson Heart can be fused.]

Looking at the deep red heart in his hand, which resembled a heart-shaped gem, Chen Jing naturally chose to fuse with it.

As the Crimson Heart disappeared, the entire train's exterior was covered with a deep red coating.

"Upgrade the train!"

Chen Jing currently has enough resources to upgrade the train to level five.

As resources were depleted, two additional carriages were added to the train.

[Train Class: Level 5]

[Attack and Defense Strength: Level 6]

[Optional Equipment: Crimson Baffle *3, (+)(+)]

[Prerequisite for upgrade: Train conductor level 6]

Upgrade Requirements: 200 units of refined red iron ore, 500 units of deep red structure, and 3 seeds of quenched red iron.

[Upgrade unlocks: Sixth carriage, sixth train equipment slot, automatic cruise control.]

Automatic cruise control?

Chen Jing looked at the newly added features and then glanced at the upgrade requirements.

Seeds that have been tempered to a reddish hue.

What is this thing?

However, it's certain that this item is not available in the beginner map.

It seems that level 5 is the upper limit in the beginner village.

To get higher quality trains, you'll need a new map.

"Let's build the train equipment first."

Seeing that he couldn't upgrade the train at the moment, Chen Jing wasn't in a hurry and decided to improve the train's strength first.

He immediately checked the newly acquired drawings.

[Blueprint: Annihilation Turret]

[Level: 9]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect: Condenses crimson power to unleash a powerful annihilation beam; can absorb crimson power to repair durability.]

[Manufacturing Requirements: 20 units of Refined Hematite, 50 Attack Parts, 30 Defense Parts, 20 Crimson Tissue.]

"We've run out of refined hematite."

Chen Jing glanced around the space.

Some high-level resources have been exhausted and need to be acquired.

The advantage of the beginner map being Crimson Town is that there's no shortage of food.

The downside is the scarcity of high-level resources.

Chen Jing opened the chat channel and prepared to sell some guns in exchange for supplies.

Currently, Li Qiya's strength has reached level four, but her firearms are far inferior to her own, so she has an extra pistol and a rifle.

As for Liya and Luo Baili, given their support talents, it's best for them to use guns for self-defense for now.

[Melancholy Fries: Selling a pistol and a rifle, price to be announced!]

One sentence instantly ignited the survivors who were spying on the screen.

[Low-key Salted Fish: I'll trade ten units of refined red iron ore and twenty crimson tissues for a pistol and fifty rounds of ammunition.]

Hey! Bread Bro has finally stopped selling bread.

Chen Jing looked at the message sent by Xianyu with surprise.

At least we no longer have to exchange those cheap breads for supplies.

However, this amount of resources was still far too little for Chen Jing.

[Melancholy Fries: Too low. My pistol can deal damage to monsters at level 3 or higher. It's a godsend for early game progression. Your price isn't enough.]

No sooner had the message been sent than Zhang Ba, an old acquaintance, offered a satisfactory price.

[Zhang Ba: Three hundred units of refined hematite and a piece of special red crystal mother ore, besides the gun, I also want a thousand rounds of bullets, how about that, brother?]

That's the mine owner!

Seeing Zhang Ba pull out a full three hundred pieces of refined red iron ore, Chen Jing couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

Immediately, he opened the information about the red crystal mother ore sent by Zhang Ba.

[Item: Red Crystal Mother Ore]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect: Adds an Epic-level attribute to a weapon]

[Description: A rare mineral found in red iron ore caves; only one piece may be produced from a low-grade vein.]

Top-grade minerals, equipment attributes!

It's another new item.

Unfortunately, Chen Jing didn't know how to forge.

Perhaps someone will awaken a forging-related talent.

After thinking it over, Chen Jing decided to take it for himself first.

[Melancholy Fries: Okay, I've already posted a trade request.]

After the transaction was completed, Zhang Ba sent his thanks.

[Zhang Ba: Thanks, brother! I've been trapped in this deep mine by these mutated rats for a whole day!]

Seeing Zhang Ba's message, Chen Jing understood why Zhang Ba had been so generous; it turned out he was about to be bitten to death by rats.

However, Chen Jing still hoped that Zhang Ba wouldn't die.

After all, these 300-plus units of refined hematite are really tempting!

……

At this moment, a Class II train.

Seeing his prize snatched away again, Salty Fish angrily slammed his fist on the table.

"Damn it! Why are they all ruining my plans!"

From its struggle for survival until now, the salted fish has received none of the things it wanted.

I'm barely at level two now!

Meanwhile, the top tier is already preparing to advance to the third tier.

"I need to find a suitable target quickly to upgrade my talent!"
