Death Train: SSS-level talent right from the start!

"Chen Ye, I'll go with you in the next trial."

Gu Qinghuan's voice came from the back row again.

Chen Ye turned around and glanced at her. Gu Qinghuan was leaning back in her seat, her gaze fixed on the gray-white mist outside the car window.

"it is good."

He only replied with one word.

Since Gu Qinghuan took the initiative to be with him, she must have felt the pressure. For him, being with Gu Qinghuan would be a powerful alliance.

He didn't know the details of the three level 20 passengers on the new train, but with Gu Qinghuan, a level 16 psychic power expert, by his side, the team's safety would be greatly enhanced.

Moreover, he had witnessed Gu Qinghuan's strength many times. From the Corpse Capital to the Blood Mist Forest, this woman always walked alone at the forefront, yet she never suffered a loss in the trials. There was no reason to refuse such a person who took the initiative to approach him.

Su Jin, sitting in the back row, opened her mouth. She also wanted to be with Chen Ye, but she was only level 14 and could no longer be a help or even a burden to Chen Ye. In addition, considering what happened between her and Wen Ning in the Blood Mist Forest, she ultimately didn't say it.

Su Jin's gaze passed over Chen Ye and landed on Wen Ning's back.

At this moment, she had to admit that Wen Ning following Chen Ye was a wise choice. She was already falling behind, and only Chen Ye could protect Wen Ning.

Just then, a piercing electrical noise came from the loudspeaker on the roof of the carriage.

"Dear passengers, Death Train G4939 will arrive in Infinite City in two hours. The train will stay in Infinite City for three days. Have a pleasant journey."

The standard electronic female voice on the radio was devoid of any emotion, but its content caused a slight commotion in the carriage.

"Infinite Castle!"

Upon hearing those three words, Qin Zhaoyang nearly jumped out of his seat, his face beaming with barely suppressed excitement, as if he had heard the best news of his life.

"Looks like we're lucky; we don't have to participate in the three-star trial immediately, we still have time to adjust."

Wen Ning, sitting in the front row, turned around and leaned against the back of her chair, her gaze fixed on Chen Ye's face.

Chen Ye met Wen Ning's gaze: "This is indeed good news. I'll go to Infinite City and see if I can buy you a higher-grade skill book."

Wen Ning's lips curved slightly, but there was a hint of helplessness in that smile: "I still have nearly 4000 points, which is far from enough to buy an A-level skill book."

Zhou Yating turned around from the front row: "I still have more than 2000 points. I have already obtained an A-level skill book from the Blood Mist Forest Trial. I will exchange these 2000 points for potions to buy skill books for Sister Wen Ning."

Zhao Hai, who was across the aisle, also spoke up: "I still have more than 4000 points. I already have the A-level skill Heavenly Fire Falling Star. I can exchange for the S-level selection chest later."

Qin Zhaoyang quickly followed up: "I also have more than 1000 points left."

"you……"

Wen Ning suddenly didn't know what to say.

She only went through two trials after joining Chen Ye's team: Mirror City and Blood Mist Forest.

Subconsciously, she always felt that there was a thin line between herself and Zhao Hai, Qin Zhaoyang, Zhou Yating, and others who had followed Chen Ye all the way from the Corpse Capital.

She thought she was the newcomer in the group, someone who needed time to prove herself.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ye's team would unhesitatingly use all their points to help her buy the skill book, just like when Chen Ye emptied his pockets to help Qin Zhaoyang buy the Explosive Arrow skill book.

Qin Zhaoyang grinned: "We're on the same team. Besides, Sister Wen Ning, you have S-level talent. How can you unleash the full potential of an S-level talent without powerful skills?"

Chen Ye nodded slightly: "We still have some resources."

He paused, quickly taking stock of his inventory in his storage space: "I have more than a dozen green-quality weapons, a B-grade sword skill book, and a Rewind Pill that resets free attributes. All of these can be sold in Infinite City for potions."

His gaze turned to Zhao Hai: "Brother Hai, let's use your points to eat and drink with the city management officials, and save the rest."

Zhao Hai nodded.

Chen Ye withdrew his gaze and looked at Qin Zhaoyang and Zhou Yating: "You two are far from 10,000 points, so don't rush to save them. Exchange them for potions first."

Finally, his gaze fell on Wen Ning: "Convert all your points into potions as well."

Wen Ning nodded. The team was collecting skill books for her, so she naturally had to use all her own points.

"For the upcoming trials, just keep your points. All daily expenses will be covered by my points. I've already redeemed the S-rank skill selection chest, so points are no longer very important to me."

He paused slightly at this point, then continued, "But we'll have to wait until the next trial is over. I only have 220 points left now, which probably won't even cover the hotel room in Infinite City. Our whole team's food, drink, and other necessities will depend on Brother Hai."

His words amused everyone, and the atmosphere immediately became much more relaxed.

Zhao Hai's lips also curved into a smile.

Li Jiahao, sitting next to Zhao Hai, felt a mix of emotions.

When he first entered the death game, he thought he could make a name for himself with his almost invincible talent. Now, Zhao Hai and Chen Ye are both level 15 or 16, while he has been relegated to the bottom tier.

At that moment, he couldn't help but ask himself: I've lived my life on thin ice, will I ever make it to the other side?

"There seems to be something going on up ahead."

Zhou Yating's voice suddenly broke in; she had already turned around and was looking at the front of the carriage.

Chen Ye followed Zhou Yating's gaze and saw three men collecting medicine from each seat at the front of the carriage; they had already collected it to the middle of the carriage.

Those who were asked for the medicine obediently gave it to them.

Qin Zhaoyang: "Damn, are they collecting protection money?"

"Let's see how things go. If they dare to collect protection money like this, their level must be quite high."

Chen Ye narrowed his eyes slightly. He still didn't know who those three level 20 passengers on the ranking list were.

Hopefully, the three people collecting protection money right now aren't among the top three ranked players, otherwise things could get really bad.

Since none of the people who had been extorted for the drugs resisted, the three quickly arrived at Wen Ning and Zhou Yating's seats.

The leader was a middle-aged man around 40 years old, with a burly build and a face full of fat.

To the left of the burly man is a thin man, around 30 years old, wearing gold-rimmed glasses; to the right is a short, stocky, bald man.

"Which train did you come from?"

The bespectacled man pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Wen Ning and Zhou Yating.

"Train G5002".

Wen Ning's answer was neither humble nor arrogant.

The short, stocky, bald man grinned: "You're on a train so far back, you probably won't survive the trials after Infinite City. But you're lucky to be in the same carriage as us. Each of you should hand over a potion worth 1000 points, and we'll guarantee your safety in the next trial."

Wen Ning did not answer, but turned to look at Chen Ye.

The middle-aged man at the head of the group followed Wen Ning's gaze to Chen Ye and realized that the young man in front of him was the leader of the group.

Then he spoke: "I am Tu Honglie, next stop Infinite City. We need potions. Trading potions for safety is a good deal, otherwise you might not survive the next trial."
