My Doomsday Train.

Chapter 19 If the train is strong enough, there’s no point in escaping!
He had already built the "generator" and "circuit system" necessary for upgrading these seven trains, but he hadn't put them into use because he didn't have any extra energy stones.

As for the "energy stone" on Kun Ye's train, he did try to get it out, but he couldn't get it out at all.

Obviously, this isn't a removable accessory.

He didn't dare to swing the pickaxe to smash it. If it blew up, he would have to stay here.

Among these seven essential vehicles for train upgrades, the five that have not been built are "Pure Water Filter", "Hot Wheels", "Carriage Steel Armor", "Pickaxe Production Line" and "Axe Production Line".

The train must be upgraded to level 2 as soon as possible to avoid breaking down along the way.

He has no shortage of purified water for the time being, but armor is too expensive. He has a lot of pickaxes that he confiscated and has no shortage of them for the time being. He can only build a pair of Hot Wheels to increase the speed of the train.

When capturing an enemy train, some vehicle accessories can be removed, such as the "Three-legged Cat Heavy Machine Gun", but more vehicle accessories cannot be removed, such as armor and Hot Wheels.

etc--

at this time.

Chen Mang suddenly thought of something. He currently has no shortage of pickaxes, but as the level of the pickaxe production line is upgraded, will the pickaxes produced be able to mine faster?

He quickly returned to the train room, opened the "Newbie Guide" on the console, and after scrolling through the screen for a long time, he finally found the information he wanted in a corner.
-
The "Pickaxe Production Line" is a green grade, with the highest level being level 3. With each upgrade, the pickaxes produced can mine higher-level mines.
-
Can only higher level mines be mined?
Chen Mang looked at the line of words and frowned slightly. It was not useless. At least from now on, it seemed that he was the only one who could mine freely in mines of level 4 and above. Even if others could get a level 4 pickaxe, it probably would not be as easy as him.

But it was a little different from what he thought.

There is a slight gap.

I don’t know if level 4 iron ore can replace level 1 iron ore.

soon--

He found the information he wanted in the beginner's guide.
-
10 units of level 1 iron ore = 1 unit of level 2 iron ore.

10 units of level 2 iron ore = 1 unit of level 3 iron ore.

10 units of level 3 iron ore = 1 unit of level 4 iron ore.

在「制作台」上，可将10单位1级铁矿合成为1单位2级铁矿，又或是将1单位2级铁矿分解为10单位1级铁矿。
-
this time!

Chen Mang smiled with satisfaction. That is to say, as long as he found a level 4 mine and upgraded the "picking line" to level 4, then every unit of level 1 iron ore he obtained would be equivalent to 4 units of level 1000 iron ore.

Now the problem is much simpler.

He only needs to find a "Level 4 Iron Mine" to solve his current resource shortage problem.

There are basically two channels for finding mines.

Ask other train conductors on the "Train Radio" or use the "Resource Detection Radar" to detect nearby resource areas while driving. These two accessories are craftable accessories that come with the train after it is upgraded to level 2.

That is to say——

As long as his train is upgraded to level 2, all existing problems will basically be solved.

After breaking down and refining the problem, an optimal solution was quickly obtained.

This way the goal will be clearer, so that you won't be like a headless fly, feeling that you are lacking this and that, not knowing what to do without priorities, and just standing still.

After splitting the goals and sorting out the logic.

He looked at the five must-have accessories and finally chose three.

"Pure water filter," "Hot Wheels," and "Pickaxe production line." He placed the filter in the No. 3 living car, and the Pickaxe production line in the No. 2 warehouse car. The current car layout wasn't perfect, but he didn't have the resources to build extra cars, so he had to make do with it for now. He'd arrange it more carefully later when he had more resources.

These three accessories consumed a total of 700 units of iron ore.

Completely penniless, he no longer has a single unit of iron ore.

Producing one pickaxe requires 10 units of iron ore.

The "Pure Water Filter" can filter all liquids, such as urine, rainwater, etc., into drinkable pure water. Its shape is also disgusting, a bit like a toilet. After it is upgraded to level 2, it can directly produce mineral water. Each bottle of mineral water requires 1 piece of moldy bread.

The Hot Wheels have automatically replaced his existing ordinary wheels.

It can significantly increase the speed of the train.

But the disadvantages are also obvious. When facing a tide of zombies or some bad terrain, there is basically no way to pass through, and the risk of rollover is very high.

So far——

He only needs two essential accessories to upgrade his train: the "carriage steel armor" and the "axe production line."

This "carriage steel armor" is the most expensive here, requiring 1000 units of iron ore. What's even more terrible is that this thing is calculated based on the carriage, which means that 1000 units of iron ore can only cover one carriage with armor.

If you want to cover all the carriages of the train with armor, you need more iron ore. Fortunately, as long as you cover any carriage with armor, the train upgrade conditions will be met.

No wonder only the front of Kun Ye’s train has armor.

“I’m really anxious.”

Inside the train, Chen Mang looked at the mine outside the window and sighed helplessly. Those slaves were still mining in the mine and would not be able to come out for a while. He almost wanted to pick up the pickaxe and go out to work himself.

He needs more slaves!

Oh no.

I have to change this habit in the future. According to Lao Zhu, there should be more passengers and survivors.

There is simply not enough iron ore.

It's a pity that he is not qualified to build a "train radio", otherwise he really wants to know what other train conductors do when they lack resources and lack sufficient information exchange.

But he suddenly remembered something, and he didn't know what it was.
Can his "Earth Core Furnace" refine all the captured pistols and pistol bullets?

Just do it.

He immediately walked out of the train compartment and activated the "Earth Core Furnace". With its bloody mouth opening, he threw a pistol into it and quickly obtained 10 units of iron ore.

"uh-huh."

Chen Mang curled his lips, it was a bit too little, but it was okay, a small amount is still meat, and then he threw all the captured pistols and more than 200 rounds of pistol bullets into it, and immediately obtained a total of 250 units of iron ore.

He kept the GLS pistol he had obtained at the beginning, and also kept more than 30 rounds of bullets.

Although he can no longer use this thing and has a more useful thing like an assault rifle, it is the first straw he got when he came to this world, so it is nice to keep it as a souvenir.

He must build a safety train of his own as soon as possible, otherwise if he encounters another encirclement of zombies, he will probably have to disconnect all the carriages and flee.

If the train is strong enough, there's no point in escaping!
Kill them all, maybe you can get a lot of good stuff!
