Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

"I've collected most of the materials needed to upgrade to level 5; all that's left are the precision gear and the energy core fragment."

Inside the train carriage.

Bai Xiao received the materials sent by the members of the association and then did a rough inventory.

Titanium alloy steel and bulletproof glass are already extremely difficult materials to collect, but precision gears and energy core fragments are even more difficult to obtain.

Ever since he had dinner with Lu Xingyuan at the rest stop last time, he felt the gap between himself and Lu Xingyuan, so he hurriedly set off.

He heard that many exciting things happened afterward. Although he regretted not being able to witness them firsthand, he didn't regret it at all.

"Brother Lu is so powerful, while I am so weak. How can I not work hard!"

"The most ridiculous thing is that I even wanted to invite people to join my Pure Mind Brotherhood."

Whenever Bai Xiao thinks back to the stupid things he did before, he can't help but laugh at himself.

How could Lu Xingyuan possibly be interested in his Jingnian Brotherhood?

But he was lucky.

The first two stations' single-player platforms not only have abundant survival supplies, but also a considerable amount of upgrade resources.

There are as many as 20 sets of precision gears alone!

"I'll most likely become the first train conductor to be promoted to the fifth rank..."

Thinking of this, Bai Xiao felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

He had spies in all of them, including the Mutual Aid Society, the Tianhua Society, and the Crimson Legion.

According to the intelligence gathered by their informants, Pan Wei of the Mutual Aid Association, Wang Tianhua of the Tianhua Society, and Wang Rong of the Crimson Legion were not as fast at collecting information as he was.

Although becoming the first train conductor to be promoted to the fifth rank didn't bring any substantial rewards, it was merely an honor, but he still wanted to try and achieve it.

"My main concern right now is whether there are any skilled players among the casual gamers..."

Bai Xiao pondered.

He knew there were many skilled solo players.

They are not affiliated with any organization, yet they live a very successful life.

Take, for example, the famous Dragon, Tiger, and Leopard siblings.

Although their avatars have been removed from the chat channel, proving that they have been eliminated, this only shows that there are still skilled players out there. Otherwise, how could they have been eliminated?

"Oh, right, and there's also Brother Lu..."

Suddenly, he thought of Lu Xingyuan and felt a pang of guilt. How could he have forgotten the most important person in his life?

"With Lu Xingyuan's strength, he must have collected quite a few upgrade materials by now."

"But unfortunately, Brother Lu, I've taken the first promotion title without any hesitation. I hope you won't take offense."

However, the very next second after he finished speaking, a series of private messages popped up.

They are members of the Pure Mind Brotherhood.

Their messages flashed incessantly, as if something extremely urgent and important had happened.

This made Bai Xiao's heart skip a beat.

What happened?

He quickly opened the message from the vice president.

"Boss...this is terrible! Someone...has already leveled up five times!"

boom!

Bai Xiao's brain suddenly went blank.

I felt like I was about to explode.

What?!

Has someone already advanced five levels ahead of him?

Isn't this speed a bit too fast!

He was lucky enough, but unexpectedly, someone was even luckier than him.

"Who is it?"

Bai Xiao's hands were trembling as he typed, but he didn't even realize it himself.

Don't blame him for reacting so strongly. There's no way around it; he put in tremendous effort for this first place and was absolutely certain that he would win.

Unexpectedly, someone suddenly transformed and became that Level 5 train conductor!

"head……"

The vice president hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Bai Xiao remained silent for two seconds.

"I see……"

Immediately, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Lu Xingyuan, oh Lu Xingyuan, I underestimated you! You beat me to it again. You truly are something else!"

By this time, the chat channel was already in complete chaos.

It is impossible to know exactly who discovered that Lu Xingyuan had advanced to level five.

Because there were just too many messages in the chat channel, like an avalanche, a dense, overwhelming mass.

Everyone remembered that they had been discussing how unbearably cold the weather was, when suddenly someone jumped out and said they had discovered something incredible—"Lu Xingyuan! He's leveled up five times!"

"He's now a full-fledged Level 5 train conductor!"

boom!

The atmosphere in the chat channel was instantly ignited.

Everyone became incredibly restless.

"Holy crap! It's true! I just checked the chat channel and the number in the bottom right corner of Lu Xingyuan's avatar changed from 4 to 5!"

"He really got promoted to level five! He really became a level five train conductor in such a short time!"

"Family members, this is unbelievable! I just reached level two, and he's already level five? How can the gap between people be so huge!"

"This guy is definitely cheating! I'm reporting him! This guy is the game designer's favorite!"

"How could you level up so quickly? You have no idea how difficult it is to obtain the materials needed to level up to level five! Especially those energy core fragments, they're incredibly rare!"

Many train conductors of the fourth level stood up and complained bitterly!

Those low-ranking train conductors just thought it was awesome, but they had no idea how much value Lu Xingyuan had gained by advancing to the fifth rank so quickly!

Only train conductors who have truly reached the fourth level can understand just how terrifying this speed is!

At this critical juncture, which train conductor isn't an exceptional individual? Which one isn't a chosen one?

However, the precision gears and energy core fragments required were so difficult to obtain that even they found it a headache, or even despair!

But Lu Xingyuan actually managed to collect them all so early?

What the hell is this if not cheating?!

Mutual aid society.

Pan Wei was sitting in front of the control panel with a cup of hot milk in his hand, looking at the dense barrage of comments, his face extremely gloomy.

In fact, no one knew that he was only one energy core fragment away from advancing to level five.

Bai Xiao had planted spies in his mutual aid group, how could he not know?

Therefore, he spread false information, and the true information was only known to the most core members.

Its purpose is to lull others into a false sense of security.

As the most powerful organization in Division 11, the Mutual Aid Association has repeatedly had its limelight stolen by Lu Xingyuan—"They boasted loudly, claiming that their Mutual Aid Association was the light of humanity's future, but what was the result? Despite having so many members, they still let Lu Xingyuan steal the first title to advance to Level 4! What a joke!"

Pan Wei felt an uncontrollable rage whenever he saw the mocking comments in the chat channel.

He secretly vowed and competed with himself to become the first train conductor to be promoted to the fifth level!

But now you're telling him that Lu Xingyuan beat him to it again?

Pan Wei simply couldn't take it anymore!

Although it was just an honorary title and actually had no practical use, for him, face was more important than anything else!
