Su Qingxuan leaned against the storage box, looking at the red marks on Shen Wen's neck, and said with a smile, "Isn't this going a bit too fast? I'm starting to worry about our future happiness."

Given their current relationship, it doesn't matter if they tell a few dirty jokes.

Shen Wen countered, "Why don't you give it a try, Sister Qingxuan?"

If it weren't for the fact that this was Su Mu's first time, he wouldn't have let her off so easily.

Su Qingxuan blushed, seemingly lost in thought. "Well, it seems being a man really makes a difference."

Jiang Youchu quickly raised her hand: "I want to try!"

Su Mu grabbed her hand, his face expressionless: "No, you don't want to try."

Jiang Youchu stumbled a step after being pulled, her lips pursed, and she muttered softly, "Why can you try but I can't?"

"Because you talk too much."

Lydia stood in the corner, gripping the priest's staff tightly in her hand, her long silver hair hanging down her shoulders, her face flushed.

She asked softly, "Oh, is this kind of ceremony necessary on this car?"

She noticed that all the women in the car seemed to be connected to this powerful man named Shen Wen.

Shen Wen is handsome, far more so than Hit. If he were in the Griffin Kingdom, he'd probably be a close friend of many noblewomen by now. Plus, he's powerful…

Well... it's not impossible...

"Then when will I...?"

Su Qingxuan and Jiang Youchu exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.

Jiang Youchu smiled and said, "Little sister, it's not your turn yet."

She was telling the truth. Just kidding. It's bad enough that there are two sisters who are protective of their food, but now there's also a little priestess with an exotic look.

When will it be my turn?!

Lydia's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head, not daring to speak again.

Shen Wen glanced at Su Qingxuan and Jiang Youchu: "Go take a shower. Lydia and Youchu go first, I need to talk to Sister Qingxuan about something."

Jiang Youchu pulled Lydia toward the bathroom, but after taking a couple of steps, she turned back and winked at Shen Wen: "Don't sneak food while I'm not around."

Su Mu glared at her.

The bathroom door closed, and steam began to fill the air again.

"I'll go check on the vegetables."

Because of what had just happened, Su Mu was too embarrassed to face Shen Wen, and like a fertilized rabbit, she walked towards the greenhouse.

Su Qingxuan smiled when she saw Su Mu's expression, then brought over a basin filled with a dark green liquid that gleamed dimly under the carriage lights.

"The corpses of the Fallen Elves and Crypt Goblins have all been decomposed. A considerable amount of Black Iron-grade flesh and blood was obtained, which can be used to make attribute potions."

They had previously obtained the blueprint for attribute potions, and it turned out that bringing back the corpse to decompose it was the right thing to do.

Otherwise, how would we obtain the necessary black iron-grade flesh and blood?

Like the spirit pork we obtained before.

Don't they need to eat themselves?

She pointed to the liquid in the basin: "This is decomposed from fallen elves; it's called Fallen Essence."

It can be used to make special potions. If consumed directly, it will gradually corrupt the user, but will also grant attribute enhancements.

Shen Wen glanced at it: "No need. Keep it to sell."

They have so many ways to enhance their strength, there's no need to resort to such unorthodox methods.

Since it's called the Fallen Essence, it's probably the source of Fallen Spirits.

If you can avoid taking it, then you should.

Su Qingxuan nodded and took the basin back.

"Crypt goblins drop hide, flesh, and bones. The hide can be used to make armor, and the bones can be crafted into weapon materials."

She took out several grayish-white bones from her backpack; their surface was rough, but their texture was hard.

Shen Wen took it and weighed it in his hand: "Alright, it seems we lost a lot of things before."

In the Greenskin Forest, they killed quite a few goblins, such as Frost Goblins and Flame Goblins.

If these are brought back and decomposed, similar things will definitely appear, since black iron-level creatures are no longer ordinary creatures.

It's just that back then, without a bronze-level space backpack, I couldn't take so many good things with me.

Su Qingxuan took out another item.

A fist-sized white egg with a smooth surface, inside which something is gently wriggling, like a heartbeat.

"The one the high priest dissected was the most unique. It was called the Egg of Ten Thousand Limbs, but its specific function is unknown."

Shen Wen frowned, took the egg, and felt its warmth in his hand, as if he were holding a living thing.

He said, "Things that can't be found can be thrown into the storage room and the train can handle them."

The train's storage compartments are reliable; after the beast god's finger was thrown in, it became completely useless.

Su Qingxuan nodded and threw the egg into the storage room.

"I'll keep the flesh and blood; I'll make attribute potions later."

She said, "Now that five stations have been completed, plus there are still veteran survivors, they must have a lot of good items. There's no worry about selling potions."

Shen Wen leaned against the carriage wall, reviewing his gains from the trip in his mind.

"The gains weren't much," he said. "The main reasons were my advancement in the sequence and Youchu's job change."

Su Qingxuan nodded: "The Blood Bride has grown a lot. She has devoured the souls of those fallen elves, and her aura is much stronger than before."

Xiaoqian also consumed a few, advancing to the Black Iron level.

"It feels like her sequence is even more powerful than mine!" Shen Wen pondered, feeling that Su Mu hadn't done anything.

That increases the attribute by 16 points?

"You've already achieved 100 on both fronts, aren't you satisfied?"

Su Qingxuan rolled her eyes at Shen Wen, that greedy little devil, and Shen Wen chuckled.

And just then...

[Announcement: Attention all trains—]

The fifth stage has ended, and the newbie protection zone will soon close.

[Countdown to closing: 24 hours.]

The following rules will take effect after this is closed:

[1. The wasteland weather system is fully activated. Weather will affect the train's interior environment; extreme weather may damage train facilities. Please take precautions in advance.]

[2. Cross-regional friend function enabled. Users can add train passengers from other regions as friends for cross-regional communication.]

3. Increased frequency of group platforms. Some platforms will allow up to 10 trains to enter simultaneously.

Jiang Youchu dried her hair with a towel, her baby face flushed from the steam, and the neckline of her oversized anime T-shirt tilted to one side, revealing half of her rounded shoulder.

She overheard it while she was showering, opened the regional channel, swiped her fingers a few times, and said without looking up, "Someone has explained it."

The weather in the wilderness is harsh, sometimes extremely cold, sometimes extremely hot, making the train either very cold or very hot.

She paused, then scrolled down a few more lines: "Adding friends across regions will merge regions with similar strength into one large region. It's just that it hasn't been fully integrated yet."

"There were also elderly people playing games, saying they came from other areas."

Shen Wen raised an eyebrow.

Although it's not a complete merger, there will be a lot more information, and it will be a mixed bag.

However, it also benefits them; they can finally sell many of their items.

Moreover, as long as there is no conflict of interest, many people can obtain more of what they need through trading platforms.

Based on Shen Wen's current estimate, it's safe to say that very few trains in the same batch can catch up with them.

Shen Wen said, "It seems we still need to prepare some things to keep warm and cool down..."

Who would have thought that survival on this train could involve such ingenious tricks?

Lydia followed Jiang Youchu out.

She changed out of her white priest's robe into a T-shirt and trousers that Jiang Youchu had lent her. The clothes were a bit loose, and the cuffs were rolled up twice, revealing her slender wrists.

Her long, silvery-white hair was still wet, hanging down her shoulders, with water droplets dripping from the ends onto her collar, spreading out in a small dark patch.

"Let me see what I can buy after I take a shower."

When Su Qingxuan saw the two of them come out, she stretched and revealed her beautiful figure.

As she walked towards the bathroom, she chuckled before leaving, "Want to shower with my sister again?"

Shen Wen subconsciously followed suit, saying, "Of course, I'll help Sister Qingxuan scrub her back..."

"You little pervert!" Su Qingxuan glared at Shen Wen and walked towards the bathroom.

Shen Wen was speechless. "It was you who asked me to go again."

Heartbroken by Su Qingxuan, Shen Wen began throwing the materials into the storage room.

Lydia stood next to the storage room, watching Shen Wen throw a pile of wood into a metal box, and the numbers on the screen jumped.

She wanted to help, so she reached out to pick up the wood on the ground. Her fingertips just touched the edge of the box, but the semi-transparent screen didn't respond.

Lydia paused for a moment, then tried again, but still no response.

"You're not a passenger," Shen Wen said without looking up. "You can't use the train's functions. I'll add you in later."

"Okay." Lydia nodded slightly.

Su Mu came over from the greenhouse and said, "Those vegetables are growing quite well; they should be ready to eat. I'll have my sister cook us a meal later."

"Now we should upgrade the train, shouldn't we?" Jiang Youchu pointed at Lydia and said, "This little girl hasn't become one of our passengers yet."

"Promote him now."

Shen Wen threw the last batch of timber into the storage room and dusted off his hands.

[Wheel: Level 3 → Level 4, Required: 400 kg of metal, 100 kg of mechanical parts, 50 kg of refined iron, 1 Thunderstone]

Wheel upgrade complete! Current speed: 80km/h

[Required for Level 5 upgrade: 800 kg of metal, 200 kg of mechanical parts, 100 kg of refined iron, 5 Thunderstones, 1 Wind Spirit Crystal]

Shen Wen didn't stop, and continued tapping the bottom plate.

[Base Plate: Level 3 → Level 4, Required: 400 kg of wood, 200 kg of metal, 1 Spirit Stone]

[Base upgrade complete! SAN recovery speed increased to 8 points/hour]

[Required for Level 5 upgrade: 800 kg of wood, 400 kg of metal, 5 Spirit Stones, 1 Moon Crystal]

Next is the frame.

[Frame: Level 3 → Level 4, Required: 600 kg of metal, 200 kg of refined iron]

confirm.

[Chassis upgrade complete! Current durability: 800/800, capable of withstanding attacks from Black Iron level creatures]

[Required for Level 5 upgrade: 1200 kg of metal, 400 kg of refined iron, 10 pieces of obsidian]

After upgrading the three components, Shen Wen glanced at the remaining resources. There was still a surplus of wood and metal, and while there wasn't much refined iron left, it was enough.

He selected the car upgrade option.

[Train: Level 4 → Level 5, Required: 800 kg of wood, 800 kg of metal, 300 kg of mechanical parts, 10 catties of gold, 50 kg of copper, 10 kg of starstone, 100 kg of refined iron, 1 space crystal]

Shen Wen stared at the materials list for two seconds, then turned to Su Mu: "We don't have enough gold. We only have three jin."
