Chapter 109 – Using the Platform Positioning Card Again

On the first day of cultivating the Azure Dragon Sinewed-Bone Body Art, Yun Feifei had already successfully completed two movements, while Meng Ruoyun only managed the first one. They still needed to put in more effort to achieve a full cycle.

Since they hadn’t completed a full cycle this time, the increase in their base attributes was minimal. Yun Feifei gained a total of 4.5 points, and Meng Ruoyun gained 3.5 points.

Even so, this result far exceeded their original expectations. After all, leveling up the train only rewarded 2 free attribute points. Yet, just half an hour of cultivation had increased their attributes by around 4 points—an impressive gain. Combined with the gradual improvements accumulated throughout the day, estimated at five or six points, their total daily attribute growth would be around 10 points. This was something they had never dared to imagine before.

This was yet another benefit of their alliance. Despite being utterly exhausted, both women wore expressions of satisfaction and excitement on their faces.

After cultivation, the three returned to Living Carriage No. 1, where Fatigue Points could be quickly restored.

There was plenty of time to fully recover before the train pulled into the station.

While waiting for their Fatigue Points to replenish, Xiao Wuwang asked Tie Yi about the treasure chest situation.

In just one hour, they had collected: Wooden Treasure Chests9, Black Iron Treasure Chests8, Bronze Treasure Chests6, Silver Treasure Chests4, and Golden Treasure Chests*2.

“How are there so many?” Yun Feifei exclaimed in surprise. “Yesterday morning, I only managed to collect six chests at most, and the highest quality was just Bronze. And now, in just one hour… This is unbelievable!”

Meng Ruoyun also found it hard to believe. “I feel like even during the first three days of the Novice Protection Period, the respawn rate wasn’t this high!”

Xiao Wuwang explained, “This was actually within my expectations. Think about it—these are the combined chests from all three of us, plus Meng Ruoyun’s Divine Favor stacked with my King of Chests Talent. It makes sense that we’d have such a haul.”

Upon hearing this, the two women immediately understood.

Compared to before, collecting treasure chests now felt incredibly effortless—or rather, it required no effort from them at all.

Previously, to avoid missing chests in the morning, they had to wake up early and keep their eyes fixed ahead of the train, fearing they might overlook one.

Now, with the radar responsible for detection and the Terminator handling the collection, the train didn’t even need to slow down. All they had to do was wait for the results to be reported. This dramatic change filled Yun Feifei and Meng Ruoyun with deep emotion.

The days of struggling desperately for survival seemed to be fading away with their alliance with Xiao Wuwang, replaced by a future brimming with hope and opportunity.

In the blink of an eye, over ten minutes passed.

Xiao Wuwang’s Fatigue Points had fully recovered, and he summoned Han Xing.

Having gained a significant boost to his base attributes today, he was ready to attempt upgrading Han Xing.

First, he used a Quality Enhancement Card to raise Han Xing’s quality to Excellent.

Then, he triggered his Talent—

Upgrade!

No stinging pain followed, confirming that his current attributes could withstand the process.

[Ding!]

[Talent triggered successfully. Phantom Wraith Mech upgraded to Aurora Phantom Mech!]

Xiao Wuwang let out a long sigh of relief and checked his Fatigue Points—only 12 remained. He had barely succeeded!

—Appraisal!

Item Name: Aurora Phantom Mech

Designation: Han Xing

Level: 6

Quality: Common

Durability: —

Traits: Concealment+6, Transformation+5, Disguise+4

Description: …

——————

Compared to the duplicate, its Traits included an additional point in Concealment and Transformation.

Xiao Wuwang looked at Han Xing’s upgraded attribute panel, a slight smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

After the upgrade, Han Xing had shown significant improvements in Concealment, Transformation, and Disguise. In the future, when carrying out covert missions or evading enemy pursuit, it would undoubtedly become even more adept.

Meng Ruoyun said sincerely, “Congratulations, Big Brother Wuwang! Han Xing has become so powerful after the upgrade!”

Yun Feifei seemed to recall something and asked Xiao Wuwang, “When you use your Talent for upgrades, do you get extra bonuses in Traits?”

Xiao Wuwang countered, “Why do you think so?”

Yun Feifei replied, “I remember when you used to sell those Level 1–3 weapons, the probability of them having Traits was already quite high. Now, upgrading a Level 5 Mech normally would improve Traits by 4 points at most, but you managed to increase it by 6! That’s way above the usual level!”

“Heh!” Xiao Wuwang chuckled. “I didn’t expect you to observe so closely. Indeed, each time I trigger my Talent, the probability of gaining Traits is slightly higher. It might be compensation for the reduced Quality.”

“Tsk, tsk,” Yun Feifei sighed. “This isn’t compensation—it’s practically a super perk! The higher the Level, the greater the gap in Traits will become! Just imagine, if you keep upgrading Han Xing continuously, how terrifying would its Traits be? Compared to Traits, Quality is already irrelevant!”

Xiao Wuwang said, “Hmm, that’s actually what I’ve been doing all along!”

“Hehe!” Yun Feifei smiled lightly. “I’ve decided—once I Copy Tie Yi, you’ll have to help me keep upgrading it too.”

“No problem, as long as you don’t mind the low Quality!” Xiao Wuwang replied.

“Heh! Traits are far more important than Quality! Besides, Terminator Mechs have no Durability concerns, so Quality is even less significant,” Yun Feifei said.

Afterward, the three of them chatted a bit more about the upcoming Platform challenges.

Time passed as they conversed leisurely.

And just then—

[Ding!]

[The train is about to pull into the station.]

[Your current station site is the Level 6 Mission Platform—Forest of Gloom (Blood Prison Realm).]

[Specific tasks will be explored after disembarking.]

[This station’s Danger Rating: Extreme Risk.]

[Please prepare!]

——————

Seeing that it was still a Platform from the Blood Prison Realm, Xiao Wuwang frowned slightly, but he didn’t hesitate much. He immediately activated the Platform Positioning Card.

[Ding!]

[Detected Host using Platform Positioning Card. Please choose a previously entered Platform World and its subsequent worlds.]

Xiao Wuwang immediately locked onto the subsequent Platform after the previously entered Forest of the Lost—Kantel City (Silver Radiance Realm).

“I choose Kantel City!”

[Ding!]

[Platform modification complete!]

[Your current station site is the Level 6 Mission Platform—Kantel City (Silver Radiance Realm).]

[Specific tasks will be explored after disembarking.]

[This station’s Danger Rating: Extreme Risk.]

[Please prepare!]
