My Doomsday Train

Chapter 21: The First "Supermodel Effect".

"Huff."

Brother Biao took another deep breath with a serious expression, then solemnly said, "Since everyone's opinions are the same, let's not run. Let's follow Mang Ye wholeheartedly."

"With Mang Ye's abilities and opportunities, he might even become a Level 3 train in the future."

"What's more, there are nearly 100 slaves here. You all know how fast we can acquire resources with 100 slaves from the start. We can obtain nearly 1000 units of iron ore every day, and we won't be able to use up all the resources."

"But from now on, listen to me. Try to say less of this kind of thing. No one likes their subordinates forming small cliques."

"I will definitely look after you two, but you two should also think before you speak. Don't walk too close to me usually, lest people misunderstand that you two only listen to me and no one else."

"Especially—"

"When Mang Ye assigns you two tasks, don't look back at me, understand!?"

Speaking of this, Brother Biao became a little annoyed. The reason why he was so ostracized on the previous train was because when the three of them had just joined, the deputy train conductor assigned a task to this Hei Wa.

Hei Wa was this thin, dark boy.

Hei Wa stood there without moving, only looking back at him, as if waiting for his permission.

At that time, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt he was done for. Sure enough, although the deputy train conductor didn't say anything, all the most dangerous tasks later fell on him without exception.

If he didn't have a knack for saving his life, weeds would be three meters tall on his grave.

If he didn't know that Hei Wa didn't do it on purpose, he would have wanted to kill Hei Wa. Wasn't this deliberately making trouble for him!

"Understood, understood."

Hei Wa lowered his head somewhat shamefully and muttered, "I didn't think so much at the time. I was just in a strange environment and didn't dare to act rashly. I thought I'd let Brother Biao guide me."

"It definitely won't happen this time."

Now that a decision had been made.

Brother Biao patrolled even more seriously, after all, he wasn't just working for Mang Ye, but also for himself. Once he neglected his duties and only discovered that the zombies had formed an encirclement, it wouldn't just be Mang Ye who would die, but him as well.

In the wasteland, the entire train was a community of shared interests.

Anyone's negligence could put the entire train in danger.

At the same time, he was also thinking about a problem. After all, he had only just been promoted and hadn't reported this matter to Mang Ye yet. Now that he had decided to follow Mang Ye seriously, how to make Mang Ye trust him was a question he had to consider.

If—

He tilted his head thoughtfully and looked at a thug not far away who was glaring at him with a dissatisfied expression. This thug had failed to compete with him for the position of leader just now and now looked very unconvinced.

If he could find a way to instigate this person to launch a rebellion, and then strangle this person to death at the first opportunity, could he rise to the top by stepping on this person?

Soon, he shook his head again and threw this idea out of his mind. It was too dangerous. If something went wrong, he would have to die with him.

"Sigh."

Then he sighed softly again and turned to look at the train behind him, hoping that Mang Ye could quickly upgrade to a Level 2 train. After all, a Level 1 train didn't have any offensive components, and it gave people too little sense of security. Even though he had decided to follow Mang Ye, this Level 1 train still made people feel uneasy.

Currently, the only offensive vehicle components were that heavy machine gun and the "Car Blade."

He knew about the "Car Blade." He had also obtained this white component before and upgraded it to Level 2, but it wasn't of much use. It could only deal with small-scale zombie hordes.

"Eh?"

Thinking of this, Brother Biao suddenly paused slightly. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but why did he feel that the "Car Blade" of this train was thinner and the blade surface was wider than the "Car Blade" of his previous train?

Soon, he shook his head and didn't think much about it.

He must have remembered it wrong. After all, it was already the beginning of the apocalypse when he built the "Car Blade" white component, and his memory was already very vague.

Meanwhile, inside the train—

Chen Mang looked at the sky outside the window and then glanced at the clock in the train compartment. It was already ten o'clock in the evening. It was time to let the slaves come up and prepare to rest.

After resting for one night, they would continue to mine tomorrow morning.

At this time.

He learned from the information on the "Newbie Guide" that the resources in each "mine" were limited. After these resources were mined, it would take several days for the resources in this mine to regenerate.

He had gone down to the mine. According to his estimation, this mine should be enough for him to mine for ten and a half months without any problems.

...

Chen Mang looked at the control panel in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Just like that.

After about several tens of minutes, the slaves also returned from the mine. After receiving a portion of food and water in turn, they returned to the slave carriage in an orderly manner to prepare for sleep.

At the same time, they handed over all the iron ore they had mined.

Adding to his existing 250 units of iron ore, he had exactly 700 units of iron ore. The slaves had mined for most of the day and it was good to have so much harvest. They seemed to be working hard, a bit like their first day on the job, trying to perform well.

When all the iron ore was piled up in cargo carriage No. 2, Chen Mang looked at the 800 units of iron ore displayed on the train panel and nodded with satisfaction. He planned not to move this iron ore anymore and use it all to upgrade to a Level 2 train.

But just then—

He suddenly saw a line of information on the Newbie Guide. The "Newbie Guide" was a red button on the control panel. After pressing it, a series of information about how to become a qualified train captain would appear on the screen in the control room, so that the new train captain would not become a headless fly.

Of course, this information was all relatively basic.

This information was:—

"All vehicle components will unlock the first 'Supermodel Effect' after being upgraded to Level 5."

-

"This—"

Chen Mang paused slightly when he saw this message. The higher the grade of the vehicle components, the higher the upgrade limit. Many white and green components simply didn't have a Level 5 limit. This information would not be used in a short time and was useless.

But . he had the "Infinite Upgrade" plug-in!

If a white vehicle component was upgraded to Level 5 by him, would it have this supermodel effect?

This was an uncertain thing.

He calculated that his white vehicle component "Car Blade" was currently Level 3. It cost 100 units of iron ore to upgrade from Level 1 to Level 2, and 200 units of iron ore to upgrade from Level 2 to Level 3.

According to the calculation of increasing 100 units of iron ore for each level upgrade, it would cost 700 units of iron ore to upgrade to Level 5.

And he now had exactly 700 units of iron ore.

If he tried, he might upgrade the train to Level 2 one day later, but if he didn't try this . he might not be able to sleep tonight.

Chen Mang looked expressionlessly at the message on the "Newbie Guide" in front of him. He knew that there were always many temptations on the road ahead. He had just made up his mind to save all the iron ore for train upgrades.

The temptation came.

But . who could resist this? Although upgrading the train to Level 2 was also very important, if upgrading the "Car Blade" to Level 5 could have a supermodel effect, then this supermodel effect could completely make the "Car Blade" more powerful. Having a powerful offensive component would also be of great help to him!

And this experiment would also affect the focus of his future resource allocation.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Mang quickly made a choice. On this dangerous wasteland where danger could appear at any time, a powerful offensive component was more important. What's more, even if the white vehicle didn't have a supermodel effect, a Level 5 "Car Blade" would be a good offensive vehicle component.

Upgrade!

Upgrade the white vehicle component "Car Blade" to Level 5!
