My Doomsday Train.

Chapter 280 "Your train has been upgraded to level 15."

"."

Inside the train.

Chen Mang looked up at the fighter jet circling above his head and admired it quietly. He liked this thing; it looked authentic.

His trains must have at least level 3000 armor in order to travel at speeds exceeding 10 km/h.

Otherwise there is a risk of the train disintegrating.

But this is actually because he doesn't have an energy shield. If he had an energy shield, a level 10 energy shield would be enough.

His fighter plane has level 0 defense and can reach a maximum speed of 5040km/h, but has no armor restrictions.

But it will consume energy stones.

Time soon came to evening.

It's almost midnight.

The first 1000 residents have entered the neon city in an orderly manner, while the rest remain on the train.

In the neon city.

Almost at midnight, many train conductors brought their thugs to the neon city almost on time. Among them were newcomers and veterans.

“It’s so prosperous.”

A young man just appeared at the birth point. After seeing this scene, he froze in place with shock in his eyes. He had never seen such a prosperous and popular adventure map.

It even gave him a sense of trance before the end of the world.

"call"

The young man took a deep breath, glanced at the shops on the street, and immediately began to explore along the street. According to his experience, adventures are often not hidden in shops that can be seen at a glance.

He has read a lot of online game novels.

In online game novels, adventures often take place in hidden places.

It took a full thirty minutes.

The man's eyes suddenly lit up and he was attracted by a store——

"Mechanical Train Confessional."

This name sounds unusual!
Something.

He looked around carefully, and when he saw that there were almost no people in this area, he quickly pushed the door open and walked in.

The store is decorated in black and white.

There was no staff, only a futon placed on the ground, and a screen next to it introduced the information about the store.
-
“When you feel guilty about something you’ve done, you can come here to confess.”

"There are three levels of repentance."

"1. Ordinary confession, 100 points per minute."

"2. Advanced Confession, 1000 points per minute."

"3. Extreme repentance, 10000 points per minute."
-
"Ten thousand points per minute?"

The young man looked down at the balance on his watch. It was 100 million points, which he had just exchanged for iron ore. It was equivalent to units of iron ore per minute. The price was a bit expensive, and he didn't know what kind of reward he would get.

Gritting his teeth slightly.

He chose the most expensive one, repented deeply, and began to kneel on the mat and confess devoutly.

At this time, the train conductors guarding outside the "Mechanical Train Confession Room" looked at each other and saw the smiles in each other's eyes.

"Ever since I got scammed by this store, my favorite thing to do every time Neon City opens is to wait here and watch new customers get scammed."

"Indeed, who would have thought there would be such a crappy place in Neon City."

"The main thing is that this store is hidden very well. You said it was your first time in this place and you found an extremely hidden store. Don't you have any ulterior motives?"

"really."

"But I don't know if it's an illusion, but after confessing, I did feel a lot better. I feel like this paid confession is more effective than the free one."

"You're a pure bitch."

After a while.

"It's been ten minutes, and this guy isn't going to come out yet?"

"Yeah, it would take a lot of days of doing something so awful that it would take ten minutes to repent."

"He's out, he's out. That cheating beggar just happened to walk over here. Do you think he'll be cheated again?"

"Definitely."

The young man walked out of the "Mechanical Train Confession Room" with a grim face, clenching his fists and cursing in his heart. What the hell is this crappy place? They actually have to pay to confess?

No reward at all?

Believe it or not, he smashed up this store!

Isn't this pure deception?

at this time--

A ragged beggar came up unsteadily on crutches, his voice trembling, "Hey young man, I haven't eaten for a long time. Would you be willing to give me some star coupons so I can have a meal?"

"you"

The young man looked grim and hesitant. If he had given it at the beginning, it would have seemed like a fortuitous encounter. But now, after being cheated once, he felt that something was wrong.

just
After hesitating for a moment, he finally said, "Is 100 Stellar Vouchers enough?"

100 star coupons were not a lot for him, so if he was cheated, he was cheated. After all, this was the first person he had seen in the adventure map who could talk to him. He didn't know if he was an NPC or something, but he had to give it a try.

“Enough, enough.”

"Young man, you are such a kind person. I have never had any use for this stone, so I will give it to you."

The beggar tremblingly took out a stone from his pocket and handed it over.

"Stone?" The young man was slightly stunned, then he couldn't help but raise his voice in disbelief: "Murphy Stone?! Holy shit!"

He was just about to look at the beggar and say something, but he found that the beggar had already walked away, leaving only a mysterious back.

Nai, don’t believe me when I tell you this, but I just spent 100 star coupons to buy a Murphy Stone.

Yes, it is the Murphy Stone worth nearly one million.

"what's the situation?!"

"It's actually Murphy Stone?"

The train conductors who had just been watching the show gathered around in bewilderment, staring at the Murphy Stone in the young man's hand. "Why? I gave him 1000 Stellar Tickets last time, but he got nothing."

"You only have 1000, but I gave you 1!"

"This is called good things happening to good people."

The young boy happily put the Murphy Stone in his arms and strode away.

Several train conductors looked at the young boy's departing back and were silent for a long time before they began to analyze the situation.

"So I should give him 100 Stellar Vouchers. Is that right?"

"No, it should be that the Mechanical Train Confession Room is not actually useless, but can temporarily improve a person's luck. We just don't know it!"

"I think it should be after coming out of the confessional on the mechanical train, when all sins are temporarily absolved, that this interaction with the beggar can be triggered?"

"Anyway, the procedure should be to go to the confessional first, then meet the beggar, right?"

After several train conductors reached a consensus, they looked at each other and saw the way to make money in each other's eyes.

They seemed to understand!

Sun City, seventh floor.

"."

Chen Mang stood at the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at a hotel not far away. It was previously closed, but now he has converted it into a wedding hall.

The wedding hall is the fixed "wedding setting"

There are two types of wedding arrangements.

One is customized. The wedding company goes to the site to arrange it and has to leave after one use. The price is often more expensive. When the four major elements are included, the charge starts at about 10,000 yuan, and there is no upper limit.

One is the wedding hall, which is where the hotel takes the job from the wedding company. The hotel will arrange more exquisite decorations in a separate hall, and every newlywed who comes here to get married will use this scene. The price will be a little lower. The disadvantage is that if you take photos and post them on social media with people from the same county, you may find that your husband's ex-girlfriend also held her wedding here.

At the same price, the latter looks better.

The hotel below was converted into a "wedding hall" to be used for the wedding of the two couples on this train, and will be used for weddings on other trains in the future.

"Mr. Mang."

Uncle Li stood aside, holding up his "suggestion book" and began to report, "There haven't been any major problems with business these past few days, but there have been quite a few suggestions. For example, quite a few people have left comments criticizing the "Mechanical Train Confession Room," saying it's completely useless and a scam."

"How can it be useless?"

Chen Mang leaned on his cane and said calmly, "Isn't it to give him a place of solitude to repent? Besides, how can it be called a scam? Didn't I go into Neon City when I first came here?"

"Do you have any other questions?"

“Some people curse beggars.”

"This is the Easter egg, next one."

"And they also blamed Li Shiji for designing the lottery system."

“How’s the profit?”

"It accounts for 17% of total profits."

"so tall?"

"Uh-huh."

“Is it still purely random now?”

"It's still purely random, but Li Shiji seems to be suggesting that we might need to conduct internal testing to test the effectiveness of pseudo-randomness for a while."

"Why?"

"Because some people are really lucky, they often win the jackpot after just a few draws."

"You guys can handle it. First, let Old Pig arrange for the residents to sit down, and then we can get married."

"Yes."

In the neon city.

Many people gathered in front of a hotel, looking at the information on the screen.
-
"Anonymous train, today two couples obtained their 'Doomsday Marriage Certificates' and will celebrate their golden wedding anniversary here."

"The show will officially begin in ten minutes."

"Everyone is welcome to come and support us. Those who come to support us on the 14th level train will receive a share of the prize money, limited to the first three places."

"P.S. Our shop offers 'Doomsday Marriage Certificate' services for three levels of weddings: golden, silver, and bronze. Prices vary depending on the level of wedding. There are also differences in prices for bringing your own guests and using hotel rooms. Please inquire with our staff for details."
-
"This neon city is developing better and better."

A middle-aged man stood at the door of the hotel, staring blankly at the young girl with a rather dignified appearance standing next to the screen. When he first came to the neon city, there were only dozens of people at a glance.

There are not many people.

It hasn't been long since then, but there are already so many people here, and the variety of shops is increasing.

He immediately approached the staff and said, "I'm a Level 14 Mechanical Train. I'm here to show my support. Do you have any prize money?"

"Have."

The staff handed over a red envelope with a smile: "There is a chip in the red envelope. Touch it with your watch and you can get the prize money."

"How do you book a golden wedding? I want to book a golden wedding."

"This wedding is expected to end at 01:00. You can book a wedding from 01:00 to 02:00. You will need to bring your own 'Doomsday Marriage Certificate'. For residents of our area, the price is 58 Stellar Vouchers."

A golden wedding requires 1000 witnesses.

But it doesn't matter which train they are survivors from, these people in the Star can be used.

The price is not expensive.

男人暗自思忖着，相当于用58万恒星券换500传承值和20声望值，倒是性价比挺高：“给我预定01：00-02：00这场的。”

"Okay sir, here's the payment."

Of course, there is no shortage of drinks.

The flowers are also made of iron flowers, and they look pretty good after being colored.

And at this time——

In the Star Train, in carriage No. 2, four combat training virtual spaces were quietly placed there. Xiao Ai calmly handed the four doomsday marriage certificates in her hand to Zhang Yiren who was standing beside her, and gave instructions.

"The moment I open the combat training virtual space, I'll put a marriage certificate in everyone's hands. Do you hear me?"

One copy each for men and women.

"clear."

Zhang Yiren asked with a trembling voice, somewhat uneasy, "Boss Ai, is this matter important?"

"what happened?"

"My uncle asked me to write two romance scripts, but he didn't tell me what they were for. I thought... I thought..."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Xiao Ai shook her head: "The conductor has already set up the wedding venue. If anything goes wrong now, you can go and film a movie as Louis XVI, and then you can be the male lead."

next moment--

The combat virtual training space was opened.

The two couples stood up from the training space in a trance, and when they saw each other, their eyes instantly turned red and they hugged each other.

"Xiaoyue, I love you."

"I love you, Xiaoyue."

"Xiaoyue, don't you love me?"

They hugged each other.

There were just four people hugging each other, and the situation seemed a bit chaotic. Xiao Ai couldn't tell their relationship for a while, but Zhang Yiren on the side didn't care about this situation at all. He had already stuffed the marriage certificate into everyone's hands at the first time.

Simply.

The marriage certificates all glowed red, which meant that the marriage certificates were completed. All that was left was to hold the wedding to obtain the inheritance value.

"Good."

Xiao Ai took the marriage certificate from Zhang Yiren's hand, glanced at it, and then stuffed it into Zhang Yiren's hand: "Take the marriage certificate and the two newlyweds and go to Neon City to find Mr. Mang. He did a good job."

"Is this the relationship between these four people?"

"Forehead"

Zhang Yiren hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "The situation is a bit complicated. Basically, in the script, the four people have a very complicated story, and each of them has loved the other three people."

"You can't blame me for this. What Mr. Mang said at the time was as convoluted as it could be."

As they gradually woke up, the two couples also gradually realized that they had had a very long dream. They looked at the other three people with complicated eyes, their lips slightly parted but in the end they said nothing, everything was said in silence.

The wedding was perfect.

1000 marriage points and 40 inheritance points were received, and the residents of the Star, who had no time to rest, soon welcomed their second wedding.

just
It seems that the two couples don't get along very well.

"Now that you're married."

A young man stopped the woman in front of him in a corner of the neon city and asked seriously, "That means we will officially become a family in the apocalypse. We will live on the Star for a long time."

"It's the end of the world, I won't ask for too much."

"I just want to know if you used to be in business."

"Just because I have a tattoo?" the woman said angrily.

"Yes, because you have a tattoo."

The young man said firmly, "It's not that I discriminate against women with tattoos, but the overlap between tattooed women and women working in the business world is too high. 70% of women with tattoos are working in the business world."

"You're bullshit. Don't use your knowledge to judge the entire industry."

Chen Mang returned the tablet to Xiao Ai who was standing beside him. He didn't care about these things. They were already married and didn't seem to know how to get a divorce. If they couldn't live together anymore, they would hold a court debate and find 20 jurors from the residents.

The loser will be shot immediately.

Simple and convenient.

Through the mechanical eye, Xiao Ai can know what is happening in every corner of the city.

"Remember to send out robots to fine people who urinate or defecate in public from now on."

"How disgraceful."

"Isn't there a public restroom right next to it? You have no manners at all."

"Yes."

Xiao Ai nodded, indicating that she had made a note of it. "Uncle Li and the others are worried that if they get fined, these people might stop coming back and we might lose a few customers."

"Everything will be lost. We can't give up the initiative just to maintain our customers. The initiative must be ours. Only after we ensure this can we consider the issue of increasing the number of customers. If there are fines, they should be imposed. Even if there are fewer train conductors, Neon City will not be affected at all."

"clear."

time flies.

Soon it was midnight, and the business of Neon City had ended for the day. Next was the time for the residents of "Star" to relax. Of course, the things in the residents' hands could not be consumed in Neon City.

I can't afford anything.

The main purpose is to see the bustling skyscrapers in the neon city.

There is nothing else.

The rest of the things were left to Lao Zhu and his friends. They took the residents to set up a large venue in the square, where they sang, danced, watched movies, etc. They had a lot of fun, but there were too many people, and he didn't quite like joining in the fun.

Chen Mang returned to the train room alone.

At this time, the interior of the train gave people a very cold feeling. For such a large train, there were only a few people on it, and it was indeed a bit empty.

at this time--

"Mr. Mang, have some fruit."

Chen Mang tilted his head to look at Xiaofang who was walking by. Suddenly, he felt that the train had become more lively. He said casually, "Aren't you going to Neon City to play?"

"I thought that when you come back tonight, Master Mang, you can call me if you need anything. Otherwise, I won't even have anyone to serve me."

"Well you girl."

He tilted his head to look at Xiaofang beside him. Her little face and figure were a perfect match, quite good, and he liked her personality most of all.

"That's quite thoughtful."

"Bring me a basin of hot water and give my feet a massage. They're sore from standing all day."

"it is good."

Then Chen Mang sat on the chair and looked at the train upgrade conditions.

「升级条件」：消耗6w单位3级铁矿、需要车厢内所有配件等级超过240级、拥有超过500名及以上的幸存者、且有三对列车居民通过‘末日结婚证’所结婚，且拥有1名年龄小于16岁的孩子。

He meets all the conditions. Now it seems that the "mining robots" still cannot completely replace the survivors. After all, when the train is upgraded, there are still quantity requirements for all the survivors on the train.

After consuming 600 units of iron ore.

The all-too-familiar prompt box appeared on the console screen.
-
"Your train has been upgraded to level 15."

"More craftable accessories will be unlocked."
-
"call"

Chen Mang, sitting in the chair, breathed a sigh of relief. The train finally reached level 15 and was located in the purple area. A level 15 train was already the highest level train. To go any higher, it would have to go to the red area.

And just when the train upgrade was completed, a sudden cry rang out in the train cabin.

A little weak and a little sticky.

Like the bleating of a sheep.

He subconsciously looked at Xiaolu who was sitting on the chair beside him. Xiaolu, who had been in a coma, had woken up. He rolled over and muttered, making strange noises.

"Little guy, you finally woke up."

Chen Mang picked her up and looked her up and down. Maybe she had slept for too long, her eyes were still a little closed, but her mouth was already making faint sounds of being crushed. After being held in his arms, her head kept rubbing against his chin.

"Hey."

He felt a little itchy from being rubbed, and couldn't help laughing. He pressed Xiaolu's head down and said, "Don't rub it, it's itchy."

"Let me see if you've changed since you woke up. You haven't changed at all. You ate so much of my iron ore, should it be effective? If the enemy comes, can you protect me?"

This is his special carriage, the "Behemoth Carriage". Every time the train is upgraded during this period, some iron ore will be consumed on Xiaolu.

When Xiaolu woke up, he actually felt a little regretful.

He originally thought that Xiaolu might not only be the cub of an S-level star beast, but also the cub of an R-level star beast. Now it seems that he thought too much. After all, there is no such level at all. This is just a possible level that he imagined.

next moment--

Little Green seemed to understand. It rolled to the ground, then jumped out of the window and landed on the ground. Before it landed, its body expanded instantly and turned into a large green ball that was more than ten meters long.

Still furry.

It opened its bloody mouth and turned to look at Chen Mang in the train room. There were as many as 100 heavy machine guns in its mouth. Then it pointed its mouth at the air beside it. With countless rumbling sounds, a storm like a torrent of steel gushed out!

"."

Chen Mang held Xiaolu in his arms with a complicated expression. He opened her mouth and looked at the miniature machine gun inside it. "Doesn't it hurt?"

Xiaolu shook his head.

The effect of the "Giant Carriage" is to speed up the growth of the starry sky giant beast cubs and enable them to have a certain combat effectiveness in their infancy. For example, normally, Xiaolu will not have any means of attack at this stage.

But since it has become a behemoth carriage.

Then there is the attack method of "built-in fire control system".

"It's amazing that you can grow bigger."

"What do you usually eat?"

"Human food?"

"Don't you want to eat?"

"What about the energy stone?"

"I don't want to eat either."

"Where's the iron ore?"

This time Xiaolu nodded.

"Okay." Chen Mang picked up Xiao Lu and held him in the air, saying with a smile, "You're also a big spender of gold. However, I don't have any more information about the Starry Sky Behemoth for now. You'll just have to make do with it for now. When I reach level 18 and know more about the Starry Sky Behemoth, I'll see how to train you."

"A giant beast in the sky."

"Born to live in the sea of ​​stars, that sounds amazing."

"Although you were able to grow to 10 meters, your predecessors fed on stars. You are far inferior to them."

Xiaolu pouted, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

"Tsk, your little mouth is still pouting. Do you mean that when you grow up, you will be more powerful than them?"

"Sure. I'm looking forward to seeing you grow up. I really don't want to see how the behemoth eats the stars."

Xiaofang, who was sitting next to them, held Chen Mang's feet, which had been soaked until they turned white, in her arms. She picked up the blade and trimmed them carefully. From time to time, she would smile knowingly when listening to the conversation between Mang Ye and Xiaolu. She had almost never seen Mang Ye have such a gentle side.

"You also do pedicures?"

Chen Mang held Xiaolu in his arms and smiled as he looked at Xiaofang who was getting a pedicure. "It's true that I haven't had my nails trimmed in a long time. I used to trim them often when I had paronychia, but after the paronychia was cured in the medical cabin, I haven't trimmed them much since."

"But you're still doing pedicures before the apocalypse?"

We still need to change people.

Xiaofang can now be unemployed.

"no."

Without even looking up, Xiaofang continued to trim her toenails, "Master, you forgot. When you first asked me my name, I told you I was an elementary school teacher. You can't keep trimming your toenails if you have paronychia. The more you trim, the more painful it becomes."

"The deeper you cut, the more difficult it becomes to find the next time it grows out, creating a vicious cycle."

"Before the apocalypse, I loved watching videos of donkey hoof repairs, so I learned this technique."

"."

Chen Mang looked at Xiaofang expressionlessly.

"Mr. Mang." Xiaofang, who had quickly reacted, said anxiously, "Did I say something wrong?"

"It's okay."

He was in a good mood now, and they were basically the only two people left in the train. Even Ji Chuchu and the others had gone in to play. The windows in the train compartment were not closed, and the night wind blowing in gave people a chilly feeling, which mixed with the warm wind, making it both comfortable and cold.

He likes this feeling.

Winter is almost over.

He lowered his head and fiddled with his dodgy little green nose and said casually, "How's the job of elementary school teacher?"

"Not very good, a mixed bag."

Xiaofang had already finished her pedicure. After washing her feet again, she dried them and gently massaged them. "The composition of elementary school teachers is quite complex. Some come straight from college, some have very capable husbands who have been assigned easy jobs, and some are just muddleheaded like me."

"There's a strong tendency to show off among colleagues."

"I don't have my own opinion. I've always followed my family's arrangements since I was a child. They asked me to come, so I came. I passed the exam smoothly all the way."

"Where are your parents?"

"died."

"Died in front of you?"

"Well, my mom was killed by my dad, and my dad committed suicide."

"Desperate to commit suicide?"

"No, my dad drove with my mom to pick me up from school right away. There were a lot of cars stuck at the school gate. At first, everyone was quite obedient and let those with power and influence go first. But then the situation got a little serious and no one cared about it anymore."

Xiaofang's voice was a little depressed. "Then the car couldn't be driven. During the escape, my parents were injured by zombies while trying to protect me. The injuries were not serious, but my parents were worried that the two of them would turn into zombies and attack me, so they killed my mother first and then committed suicide."

"I remember that being injured by a zombie won't infect you and turn you into a zombie, right?"

"Yes, but pre-apocalyptic movies and TV shows almost always assume that getting hurt will lead to infection. That's why I hate those who make movies. If it weren't for them, my parents wouldn't have died."

"."

Chen Mang picked up the bottle of mineral water on the table, brought it to his lips, took a long sip, and then lit a cigarette. He didn't know what to say. In fact, he thought, "You should at least wait and see if there are any changes before committing suicide. Why rush to do it? If all else fails, you can just tie yourself up."
The courage to end one's own life is indeed resolute.

Wait, this cigarette doesn't taste right.
He suddenly frowned slightly and took another breath, confirming that the smell of the cigarette was indeed wrong. He coughed lightly a few times and swallowed his saliva, feeling a slight soreness. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be tonsillitis or sore throat or a cold.

Strange.

His body should be in almost perfect health, but he still got sick. He will go to the medical cabin to recover later.

Do not know why.

Perhaps the night breeze was too pleasant.

He actually enjoyed the feeling of sitting here, massaging his feet and chatting with Xiaofang about family matters. He felt relaxed and comfortable, a feeling that was quite rare in the apocalypse.

"My condolences, uncle too."

The sound stopped suddenly.

Chen Mang quickly retracted his right foot and looked blankly at Xiaofang, who was sitting on the bench with her mouth slightly open and her body leaning forward. "What are you doing?"

"I"

"Did Ji Chuchu teach you this?"

"Isn't it that Ji Chuchu has nothing to do all day?"

"I was just trying to think of something to say to comfort you. I've already said my condolences, and you're giving me this?"

Xiaofang lowered her head and didn't say anything, just sitting there in fear.

"never mind."

Chen Mang sighed lightly and waved his hand: "Let's stop talking. Go down. I'll call you if I need anything."

He actually really enjoys this kind of chat time.

Because no one usually talks to him about these things.

just
Obviously, when he sits in this position, no one will chat with him just for the sake of chatting about family matters.

"I just"

"I just feel that Master Mang has been too tired recently, and I want him to relax."

"Why am I tired?"

Chen Mang waved his hand in annoyance: "How can I have any work to do every day? Isn't it you who do all the work?"

"Tired."

"With so many people on the Star, including its future development, you alone need to worry about it."

"Nonsense." He cursed, his lips slightly parted as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't help but nodded: "That's true, okay, go down quickly, and don't hang out with Ji Chuchu and the others in the future."

"Which blogger trims a donkey's hoof with his mouth?"

"I used to like watching people gnawing on chicken feet." Seeing that Chen Mang was not angry, Xiaofang picked up the foot washing water and walked out the door while adding in a low voice.

"You've made me laugh."

Chen Mang looked at Xiaofang's departing back and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. This little girl was quite interesting. Then he looked at the control panel. After the train was upgraded to level 15, corresponding changes also occurred on the control panel.
