That's amazing survival skills!

"How can we use this toilet without water?!" Han Miao cried, "It would have been better not to upgrade at all."

Gu Siyu and Wang Xi both had this expression on their faces. It was really hard to imagine how uncomfortable it would be to keep this thing after using it!

"Forget it, let's see if we can get a water storage tank."

The four returned to the table somewhat dejectedly. Lin Yuan examined each of the skill stones that had been extracted, and his face grew darker with each look.

【Hard (Yellow) x4】

[Forward (Yellow) ×5]

[Flame Amplification (Yellow) x1]

"I thought you guys were incredibly lucky, but it turns out you're just as unlucky as me. Sigh!"

Lin Yuan took the [Flame Amplification (Yellow)] skill stone and tossed it to Gu Siyu, saying, "This is a perfect match for you. Use the quality upgrade card to level it up later."

"As for the rest," Lin Yuan glanced at the skill stones that were practically trash, "we should trade them with other people and see if we can get some supplies in return."

"Of course, if you want to use it yourself, that's fine too."

Wang Xi and Han Miao both shook their heads in unison, clearly looking down on the item.

Besides, the effect of this "advancement" is far less than that of her own "walking on air," so why would she be willing to waste the opportunity to exchange for supplies?

Lin Yuan took out the [Gift] and placed it in front of Han Miao. "Take this and see if you're willing to learn it. If you still don't like it, then take it and exchange it for supplies."

Of the three women, two possess skills, while Han Miao does not, and Lin Yuan is somewhat reluctant to do so.

Han Miao took it, glanced at the effect on it, and said with a smile, "Of course I'm willing."

This is a pretty good option for her.

Gu Siyu has always had a calm mind and decent combat ability. Although Wang Xi's combat ability is slightly inferior to Gu Siyu's, she can bring resources to the subway.

However, she was the only one who seemed to be of no help whatsoever, and could only do odd jobs.

Now, with the [Gift], she can help too!

"Okay, then that's settled."

Wang Xi's listing of skill stones was a quiet affair, but it caused a huge stir in the trading channel.

Not everyone is strong enough to obtain skill stones.

Although these nine skill stones are of poor quality and are barely worthless to powerful individuals, they are invaluable treasures to them.

To date, no one has offered skill stones for trade!

Ding-dong! Ding-dong! Ding-dong!

The incessant notification sounds of the application messages kept ringing in the carriage, making Lin Yuan somewhat annoyed.

"Damn it, why isn't there a mute function?"

Since morning, Wang Xi had been sitting at the control panel at the front of the train, filtering through the items his subway needed, and clearly, there weren't many good ones.

Lin Yuan was quite happy to have some free time all day without any mechanical prompts.

Just as I was about to fall asleep, the cold, mechanical voice came again.

A fork in the road will appear tomorrow; please choose your path carefully.

[Branch 1: Normal Route, Abandoned Steel Factory, Low Danger Level]

Branch 2: Unknown Route, Steel City, Danger Level Unknown

Please make your choice within fifteen minutes.

[Countdown 00:14:59]

"Is there still any need to hesitate?" Lin Yuan asked the three women.

"What's there to hesitate about?" Han Miao pointed to the steel city below. "Hesitation means defeat, indecisiveness means certain death. Of course, choose the steel city!"

"What we're lacking right now should be found in the Steel City," Wang Xi said, rubbing his temples.

I wasted the whole afternoon today, and all those nine skill stones I got in return were worthless junk.

"Even if it's somewhat dangerous," Gu Siyu said thoughtfully, "although there's a difference in our combat strength right now, we shouldn't have too much trouble getting out of here."

"OK."

Lin Yuan smiled and clicked on the route to the steel city.

[Route confirmed, Steel City]

[22:37:32 remaining until reaching the Steel City]

[Note: The Steel City is dangerous. If you are not strong enough, please do not get off the vehicle.]

"Danger?" Han Miao laughed, raising her small fist. "I have a gift to give, what danger do I have to fear?"

"I think that's when they'll sense the danger!"

Wang Xi smiled and shook her head at Han Miao's excited appearance, without refuting anything.

The temperature of the flame dancing at Gu Siyu's fingertips rose slightly.

Her [Flame Control] skill has now been upgraded to purple quality, but unfortunately, the quality upgrade cards required to upgrade it to red quality are simply not something she can collect right now.

"The Eye of Truth, Scan."

The Eye of Truth flew out from Lin Yuan's palm, hovering in mid-air and emitting a red light as it scanned the subway.

[Subway Level 4]

[Hidden Material: Heart of Steel x20]

After the broadcast was completed, the Eye of Truth returned to Lin Yuan's palm and its light faded.

"Wow, you can still play like this now?!" Han Miao stepped forward, took the item from Lin Yuan's hand, and played with it in his palm, but the Eye of Truth didn't react at all.

It was as if it had fallen silent.

"Huh, why isn't it moving?"

"Alright, give it to me." Lin Yuan took it, turned around and lay down on the bed, turning her back to them, and threw the Eye of Truth into the palm of her hand.

[Confirm whether the Eye of Truth has been implanted?]

"yes!"

[The Eye of Truth has been successfully planted. Harvest time: 56:59:59]

Lin Yuan's eyes widened, somewhat unable to believe the planting time, and then she sighed.

There was really nothing he could do; this was something he couldn't control.

"sleep!"

The three girls were startled by his sudden increase in volume. They tilted their heads to look over and found that Lin Yuan had fallen asleep immediately after shouting.

The three women: .....

If it weren't for their interactions over this period of time, they would have genuinely suspected that this guy was a lunatic!

[Settlement in progress....]

Settlement Completed

Rating: 1

[Reward: None]

...............

The subway didn't stop, and having known about the station in advance, Lin Yuan slept until she naturally woke up.

"That was a really good night's sleep." When Lin Yuan got up, she looked out the window and noticed that the sky was gradually darkening. "Wow! It's afternoon!"

"Hmm, at least you didn't sleep until night." Han Miao pursed his lips, casually tossed a loaf of bread over, and pointed to the empty cabinet. "We don't have much bread left. If we don't find natural gas soon, we'll really have to go hungry or use those skill stones to buy cheap bread!"

Lin Yuan tore open the packaging and looked at the cabinet.

They must have created this specifically to store their items while they were in the dungeon.

There were also about a dozen loaves of bread scattered inside.

Food supplies are running low!

"Let's go look for it when we get closer to the station tonight," Lin Yuan said thoughtfully, stuffing his bread inside.

There aren't many other options these days. We do have ingredients like corn and potatoes, but it's impossible to cook on the subway. We can't even make the simplest things like roasted corn or roasted potatoes.

As for having Gu Siyu use flames as a base to replace natural gas?

Gu Siyu suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, and her whole body trembled inexplicably. She turned around and met Lin Yuan's gaze. "What kind of wicked idea are you thinking about?"

Lin Yuan produced an iron pot in her hand and said with a smile, "Look at this pot, isn't it big and round? Look at the bottom, isn't it scorched by flames?"

That's practically a direct hint.

Gu Siyu rolled her eyes. "Let me tell you in advance, the temperature of my flame is quite high, so it's not suitable for cooking."

"High temperature is good, we want high temperature."

Han Miao and Wang Xi, hearing Lin Yuan's words, also curiously came over. They had both thought about this, but were too embarrassed to bring it up. Now that Lin Yuan had brought it up, things would be much easier!

"You're the one who made me try this."

"Um."

Gu Siyu opened her palm, and a ball of flame floated in her palm.

Unscrew the bottle of mineral water and pour it into the pot.

Lin Yuan carried the pot closer and soon saw that the iron pot was red-hot, with the bottom and edges all glowing red. The water in the pot was steaming and emitting white smoke due to the high temperature.

Lin Yuan quickly moved the pot away, not giving the flames a chance to continue burning, and placed it on the stove, sighing.

"This method won't work."

Wang Xi was speechless; his idea had failed, and he still needed natural gas.

Otherwise, if the pot burns through, the food inside won't be able to cook through at all.
