Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

"What did you just say? You're going to decide to give me this golden upgrade card?"

After exchanging pleasantries, Lu Xingyuan got straight to the point, raising an eyebrow.

"This... I'm afraid it's not a good idea."

The other train conductors watching nearby nodded frantically in agreement.

"Yes, yes, this is terrible!"

Most importantly, we'll all be green with envy!

Who could stand this?

"Wait a minute!"

Wang Tianhua felt that he had to step forward at this time.

How can we allow Lu Xingyuan to act recklessly?

"Even if you are the legal heir of the Silver Thorn family, you can't just do whatever you want!"

"I won't allow this!"

Kane turned to look at Wang Tianhua.

Wang Tianhua's gaze was sharp, showing no fear whatsoever.

He could sense that Kane's strength was far inferior to his own, so... he should avoid him? How ridiculous!

"Give him a beating."

With a single glance from Kane, the guards behind him immediately rushed towards Wang Tianhua.

Kane was no match for him, but he couldn't defeat any of these guards.

"Who are you, an outsider, to criticize what I do?"

Wang Tianhua got a full head of bumps from the beating!

The other train conductors were all terrified and dared not utter another fart!

If Wang Tianhua ended up like this, what about them!

Having power means you can do whatever you want!

Fortunately, Wang Tianhua's sacrifice was not without its benefits.

"...Isn't this against the rules?"

Kane frowned, then suddenly remembered something.

"Then I'll issue him a commission, ask him to help me complete the task, and give him this golden modification card as a reward for the task. That should be in accordance with the rules, right?"

"Well... I can explain it from the master's perspective."

Kane immediately made the decision, then looked at Lu Xingyuan.

"I've recently run into some trouble, and I hope you, the great train conductor, can lend me a hand."

"I believe that if you take action, the problem can be easily solved!"

No one expected that a hidden mission could be triggered at the rest station.

And the rewards for this mission are so generous!

The train conductors watching all had red eyes, looking at Lu Xingyuan with immense envy!

"Wait!"

At that moment, a hand was raised; it was Wang Tianhua's.

"If it's a mission, I think... I'm more suitable than him!"

Kane didn't even glance at him, and simply waved his hand.

"Keep fighting."

The guards then proceeded to punch and kick him again.

With his face bruised and swollen, Wang Tianhua sobbed.

"I hate Silver Thorn City!"

"I hate everyone here!!!"

……

The so-called mission was that Kane was about to undergo a knighthood exam, and if he could complete it successfully, he would be promoted to a noble gold knight.

However, the difficulty of this assessment was exceptionally high, and even he wasn't very confident.

But if Lu Xingyuan were to lend a hand, they would definitely pass on the first try.

"no……"

Lu Xingyuan, who was drinking juice, noticed something was wrong.

"Can you get help with the knight's exam?"

Isn't this just ridiculous?

You shouldn't have to face it alone; if you can, you can, and if you can't, you can't.

If it's allowed to ask for help, wouldn't that create a lot of room for manipulation?

To put it bluntly, even a pig could pass the test if it had a couple of skilled fighters with it.

"Friendship is itself part of the chivalrous spirit."

"A good knight never fights alone."

"Isn't the fact that you can make more friends, and more reliable friends, enough to prove your own excellence?"

Lu Xingyuan remained silent.

Ok.

Being able to call for backup is indeed a skill.

The task was very simple.

Complete the dungeon within the specified time.

"This dungeon is rated A difficulty."

"If we convert that to your platform level, it would be purple level!"

Since his own assessment was at stake, Kane naturally dared not be careless in the slightest.

"And coincidentally, we're still facing goblins!"

Lu Xingyuan nodded.

These short, green-skinned monsters are the most fun to kill.

"...And my cousin Madeline was with me. She was also a Silver Knight and she was there for the assessment as well."

Madeline also invited a companion, but not the train conductor, but a native of Silverthorn City.

According to Kane, each knight participating in the assessment is allowed to bring two companions.

However, Madeline was very confident in the companions she had invited, so she brought one of them with her.

"...Can I bring her along too?"

Lu Xingyuan pointed to the adorable Cai Cai beside him.

Cai Cai was stunned, and pointed at herself.

"Huh? Me?"

"Don't underestimate her, she's very strong."

Lu Xingyuan was very serious.

Cai Cai was so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Why doesn't she know how strong she is?

"What I mean is, the two of us helped you complete the assessment task, but only I received the reward. Is that fair?"

Kane understood Lu Xingyuan's implication and immediately responded with a serious expression.

"You're right! Anyone who can help me complete the assessment task, regardless of who they are, should receive a reward!"

Lu Xingyuan nodded in satisfaction.

Cai Cai, standing to the side, blinked in bewilderment. This... this works too? Can you really make money this way?

Without delay, Kane immediately took action, leading Lu Xingyuan to the Knights' Association in Silverthorn City.

Lu Xingyuan and Cai Cai both passed the background check smoothly.

This is also to prevent some knights who participate in the assessment from dragging their fathers along and insisting that their fathers are their friends.

Friendship can be a symbol of chivalry.

But family ties cannot.

Using the teleportation array within the guild, they instantly appeared in front of a cold, damp cave.

The test was about to begin: the goblin cave.

A short while later, a female knight clad in silver armor also appeared here.

She is Kane's cousin, Madeline.

She had the same blond hair as Kane, emerald green eyes, rode a tall horse, and held a black spear in her hand.

She glanced at Kane with an arrogant expression, then fixed her gaze on Lu Xingyuan, her contempt evident at the corner of her mouth.

"This is the partner you invited? An ordinary train conductor?"

"Please show some respect to my partner!"

Kane didn't back down and directly retorted.

A look of surprise flashed in Madeline's eyes. She was clearly surprised that her usually timid cousin dared to be so tough today. Could it be because of this train conductor?

But... who says the train conductor has to be stronger than them!

Everyone says the train conductor is the protagonist of this world, but she refuses to accept it!

"snort!"

Madeline snorted and began to introduce the strange companion beside her.
