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

Chen Ye turned his head to look, and Gu Qinghuan's gaze was fixed on the three black throwing knives in his hand. Her expression was calm, but a very faint light flashed in her eyes.

She didn't reach out to take them, but instead put two fingers together and gently hooked the three throwing knives in Chen Ye's hand.

At the same moment, three black throwing knives were drawn by an invisible force and floated up from Chen Ye's palm. They drew a short arc smoothly in the air and then hovered steadily beside Gu Qinghuan.

Originally, six silver-white throwing knives were floating around Gu Qinghuan. Now, three new black throwing knives joined in, interspersed with the six silver-white throwing knives, forming a larger circular array around her.

"I understand now." Qin Zhaoyang looked at the nine throwing knives and suddenly realized, "It's the quantity. If each one adds 3 points to the attribute, then the nine throwing knives would add... 27 points to the spirit attribute. Damn, other blue-quality weapons only add 10 points to the attribute. This is too insane."

Gu Qinghuan looked at Qin Zhaoyang: "You're right. I got these six throwing knives in Corpse City. They're white quality and have a 1-point bonus to Spirit. I haven't gotten any psychic weapons since then. I didn't see any psychic weapons for sale in Infinite City either time. Although they have high bonuses, they're hard to obtain."

Wen Ning walked up from the side, her gaze also falling on the array of nine throwing knives beside Gu Qinghuan: "Is your current limit to controlling nine throwing knives simultaneously?"

Gu Qinghuan nodded slightly: "Yes, with my current mental strength limit and telekinetic control precision, nine handles is the limit. Any more would affect accuracy and attack frequency, which would be counterproductive."

Chen Ye's gaze lingered for a moment on the nine flying knives floating around her.

He remembered that when they were in Corpse City, Gu Qinghuan could control three throwing knives, and when they were in Mirror City, she could control six throwing knives. At that time, her level had reached level 10.

Gu Qinghuan is currently level 25, and the number of throwing knives she controls has increased to nine. Her talent ability will be enhanced every 10 levels she gains.

Not only Gu Qinghuan, but Zhao Hai's active talent ability is also gradually strengthening as his level increases. Before level 10, his metallization could only cover his forearm. At level 10, the coverage area expanded to the entire arm. Now he is level 23, and the coverage area of ​​his metallization is still expanding.

Even Qin Zhaoyang's B-level talent, after being upgraded, showed a visible increase in his guaranteed hit range.

However, his own SSS-level talent, [Supernatural Strength], has remained unchanged from level 1 to level 26, without any increase or expansion as the level increases.

He hadn't thought about this issue carefully before, because his talent was already strong enough.

But as his level increased, he saw that other people's talents were gradually unlocking new dimensions of ability, while his talents remained only passive bonuses to basic attributes.

"Brother Ye? What are you thinking about?"

Qin Zhaoyang's voice came from the side.

Chen Ye withdrew his gaze and glanced at Qin Zhaoyang: "I'm wondering why my talent hasn't improved at all as my level increases."

Hearing this, Wen Ning turned her head and glanced at Chen Ye: "Your talent is so abnormal, how are others supposed to compete if you keep enhancing it? Our attributes are all additive, but yours are multiplicative."

Zhou Yating nodded in agreement: "Wen Ning is right. Whether it's skills or items, they all amplify basic attributes. You directly increase your strength and constitution by five times. According to the mathematical formula, no one else can catch up with your attributes."

Qin Zhaoyang chuckled twice beside him: "Brother Ye, you should be content."

Seeing their nonchalant expressions, Chen Ye smiled and said, "That's true. Let's go and continue finding monsters and passengers on the opposite train to collect points."

The group set off again, and guided by Gu Qinghuan's spiritual perception, the six of them stepped into the south passage of the hall.

……

Another part of the maze passage.

A pale blue system screen floated in front of Zheng Xiao. His brows furrowed slightly as he looked at the message he had just received on the chat panel.

[Tian Bin: Brother Zheng, Meng was killed by passengers on the opposite train. Our team of fifteen people lost at least six. There was a short-range control device on the other side, so we had no chance to fight back. I managed to escape while they were chasing others.]

He quickly edited a message and sent it to Tian Bin.

[Zheng Xiao: How many people are on the other side?]

The reply popped up within seconds of the message being sent.

[Tian Bin: I only saw two people, a young man wielding a long spear and a woman using throwing knives. Both of them were very strong.]

Wei Jie noticed the change in Zheng Xiao's expression and stepped closer: "Captain, what's wrong?"

"Liu Meng has been killed."

Zheng Xiao showed the system's light screen to Wei Jie.

Wei Jie's expression froze for a moment. He looked at the system screen and frowned slightly: "Liu Meng was the highest-ranking person on the train besides the three of us. His team had quite a few people, so how could they be killed so easily?"

Yu Wei walked up from the other side, her gaze falling on Zheng Xiao's system screen: "Brief-range control item... The two people on the other side killed six of our people."

Zheng Xiao closed the system chat panel: "There were more than six people. Only Tian Bin sent a message. The others have probably been killed as well. Two people killed 14 people in an instant. That's impressive."

Yu Wei nodded slightly: "Liu Meng's team had a high score. Their team was wiped out, so we need to be more vigilant. There are definitely tough guys on the other train, and now that our team has been scattered, our efficiency in gaining points has obviously slowed down."

Just then, the ground beneath our feet began to tremble.

Zheng Xiao paused almost imperceptibly.

The vibration came without warning, its frequency gradually increasing from a low level, and within a few breaths it transformed from a subtle vibration into a tremor that caused the entire passage to shake.

Wei Jie and Yu Wei regained their balance at almost the same moment.

The passage where the three people were located broke off at both ends, and then the entire passage began to move 180 degrees laterally to connect with the new passage.

In the new passage, Su Jin's group and four other passengers from train G4939 encountered Zheng Xiao and his two companions face-to-face, less than twenty meters away.

Su Jin's pupils contracted sharply when he saw the score numbers above Zheng Xiao and the other two's heads.

The points, to a certain extent, represent the level of strength. None of the three, Zheng Xiao, Wei Jie, and Yu Wei, had fewer than 3000 points.

"run--!"

Her voice boomed through the corridor, and almost simultaneously, her right foot pushed off the ground, and she turned and shot out.

Yang Qing reacted the fastest, turning around almost at the same time as Su Jin. Wang Ze and Xia Yan followed suit without any hesitation.

The other four passengers reacted a fraction of a second too late, and that one second was enough for them to fall to the back of the line.

Eight figures sprinted through the passage, their footsteps echoing between the smooth walls on either side.
