Chapter 94 – Sixth Record Broken

The most fatal Weak Point was naturally the eyes, but the Bone Demon would certainly not allow Xiao Wuwang to succeed easily.

Xiao Wuwang would not risk attacking its eyes either.

Soon, he devised a plan.

The Level 5 Bone Demon, having been ambushed by Xiao Wuwang, was naturally furious. It rampaged wildly through the horde of Bone Demons, trying to find and crush the hidden “little insect.”

But Xiao Wuwang remained concealed within the Bone Demon horde. Even when face-to-face with the Level 5 Bone Demon, it could not detect him at all.

After venting its rage with no sign of the human appearing, the Level 5 Bone Demon finally let out an impatient roar and began striding toward Xiao Wuwang’s train.

This was exactly what Xiao Wuwang had been waiting for.

The moment the Level 5 Bone Demon shifted its attention away was his perfect opportunity for another ambush!

Xiao Wuwang moved like lightning, darting out from the Bone Demon horde once more.

This time, his target was clear: he headed straight for the knee joint of the Level 5 Bone Demon.

The Level 5 Bone Demon was massive. Though not clumsy in its movements, its joints were still relatively fragile spots.

With the agility granted by Han Xing, Xiao Wuwang reached the back of the Level 5 Bone Demon in just a few leaps.

The sharp blade materialized in his hand once again.

“Pfft!”

The blade pierced precisely into the Bone Demon’s knee joint. With a forceful motion, Xiao Wuwang dragged the blade along the joint’s seam. A grating, teeth-chilling “creak” echoed as a large gash opened at the knee, and a spray of black blood gushed out.

“Roar!”

The Level 5 Bone Demon roared in agony, its massive body swaying violently. The injured leg could no longer support its enormous frame, and it half-knelt on the ground.

Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Wuwang flashed to the other side of the Level 5 Bone Demon.

Then, like a serpent’s tongue, the blade struck again, accurately piercing the joint connecting its left arm to the shoulder.

With a “squelch,” Xiao Wuwang successfully severed another of its limbs.

With one arm and one leg disabled, the Level 5 Bone Demon no longer posed much of a threat to Xiao Wuwang.

After disabling its other arm as well, the Level 5 Bone Demon lost all ability to resist. Xiao Wuwang moved directly in front of it and, without the slightest hesitation, drove the blade into its eye socket, giving it a swift twist.

With such a devastating blow to the head, this Level 5 Bone Demon had no chance of survival.

Just as the Bone Demon was on the verge of death, the scant flesh and blood on its body rapidly dissolved.

Simultaneously, the black mist that had been swirling around it instantly thickened to an ink-like consistency, churning and surging wildly.

Seeing this, Xiao Wuwang dared not hesitate for even a moment and swiftly retreated.

Behind him, the dense black mist erupted with a muffled “pop,” exploding violently. A nauseating cloud of highly toxic fog surged outward like a raging tide.

Wherever this toxic fog passed, the air seemed to corrode, emitting a “sizzle” sound.

Even the nearby Level 3 and Level 4 Bone Demons, unable to evade in time, were instantly contaminated. Their withered flesh and bones rapidly corroded and dissolved, leaving behind nothing but stark white skeletons in no time—completely lifeless!

Witnessing this horrifying scene, Xiao Wuwang couldn’t help but shudder inwardly.

This was the most terrifying aspect of a Level 5 Bone Demon.

Such a highly corrosive, toxic environment was precisely what Han Xing feared most.

“Pfft~”

“Whoosh-whoosh…”

At that moment, a blinding light erupted from behind him.

Xiao Wuwang didn’t need to turn around to know that Tie Yi was spewing scorching flames at the toxic fog.

Under the intense heat of the flames, the toxic fog quickly dissipated.

Tie Yi was still a step faster than Xiao Wuwang, slaying the other Level 5 Bone Demon.

After dispersing the toxic fog, Xiao Wuwang approached the Level 5 Bone Demon once more and removed its spine.

This was the only loot from the Level 5 Bone Demon.

There were no more Level 5 Bone Demons left on the scene, and the remaining Level 3 and Level 4 Bone Demons posed no threat whatsoever to the train.

He left Tie Yi to collect the spines of the Level 4 Bone Demons and returned directly to the Living Carriage.

By now, many Level 4 Bone Demons had closed in on the train, and the train had activated its magnetic Shield.

Occasionally, the Mad Dragon-X Ice-Fire Launcher also assisted the Viper-S Autocannon in eliminating Level 4 Bone Demons.

After passing through the magnetic Shield, Xiao Wuwang separated Han Xing and allowed it to freely slay the Level 4 Bone Demons around the train.

With Han Xing joining the fray, the Mad Dragon-X Ice-Fire Launcher could rest once more.

Even though Xiao Wuwang possessed the Molten Fire Crystal Mother, which could condense one Fire-Attribute Crystal Stone per day, he didn’t want to waste this precious energy.

After all, as the Armament Carriage’s Level increased in the future, the attacks launched by the Mad Dragon-X Ice-Fire Launcher would also grow stronger, and the energy consumed would skyrocket accordingly. He had no qualms about hoarding as many crystal stones as possible—the more, the better.

The subsequent upgrade process proceeded without further surprises. After all, the trial of two Level 5 Bone Demons far exceeded the normal difficulty. It was only because he had two Level 5 Terminators that he found it so effortless. Anyone else would likely have met their end in this battle.

Ten minutes passed.

Xiao Wuwang finally heard the system voice—

[Ding!]

[Congratulations! Your train has successfully advanced to Level 5. Special reward: Free Attribute Points*2, Train Expansion Slot+1.]

[Ding!]

[Congratulations! You are the first player in the Server Zone to reach Level 5. Would you like to make a public announcement? Doing so will grant you: Quantum Multi-Power Core1, Diamond Treasure Chest2.]

[Yes/No]

“Yes!”

Zone Announcement—

[Ding!…]

…

As expected, the record-breaking system voice followed closely—

[Congratulations! You have broken the historical Level 5 Upgrade Record. Would you like to make a public announcement? Doing so will grant you: Thunderbolt Tower1, Diamond Treasure Chest2.]

[Yes/No]

“Yes!”

Server-Wide Announcement—

[Ding!…]

…

The Server-Wide Announcement rang out three more times.

Six records broken!

——————

“Bang!” The sound of a teacup shattering echoed.

“Ah! How incompetent are those fools from the Hall of Light! They can’t even handle a rookie! This is the sixth record broken! One more and my title as Serial Record Holder will be snatched away by that brat!” A middle-aged man in lavish brocade robes, his face dark with fury, abruptly rose from his chair and angrily swept the remaining tea set off the table. Fragments flew everywhere, and tea spilled across the floor.

The middle-aged man’s Nickname and real name were both Lei Wanjun. He was an extremely rare individual born with two Innate Talents.

His two Innate Talents were [Treasure-Hunting Intuition] and [Choice of Destiny].

[Treasure-Hunting Intuition] allowed him to keenly sense the location of treasures, greatly increasing his chances of finding rare items;

while [Choice of Destiny] granted him two additional choices each time his train Pulled Into Station.

While others could only Pull Into Station at a single location, he had two additional choices. Combined with his 【Treasure-Hunting Intuition】 Talent, this allowed him to accurately select the Station Site most likely to contain rare resources or powerful opportunities each time he Pulled Into Station. As a result, his resource accumulation and strength growth far surpassed that of ordinary people.

Relying on these two Innate Talents, Lei Wanjun advanced smoothly and rose rapidly in the Infinite Train Survival World, becoming a revered figure. He even held the glorious position of 【Serial Record Holder】 for an extended period.

【Serial Record Holder】 was not merely an honor—it was also a Title.

The Trait of this Title was the real reason he was unwilling to relinquish it.

“No, I cannot place all my hopes solely on the Hall of Light.”
