Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

While Lu Xingyuan was still examining the map, Xiao Ling'er, who was very impatient, interrupted the old city lord Adrian's rambling.

"Our stop at this station is limited in time."

"If you don't hurry, we're leaving."

The other train conductors echoed this sentiment.

Although most train conductors have already been promoted to the second level.

However, not everyone is lucky enough to get the delayed departure modification.

Many of these trains still only stop for one hour, meaning they must depart before 11:00 AM; otherwise, the train will leave, and the train will remain at that station indefinitely.

"All right."

"Since you've said that, I won't keep you in suspense any longer."

A helpless, bitter smile appeared on the old city lord's face:

"The story goes back a few years."

"Back then, Shuiwan City was a prosperous and wealthy city. Relying on its abundant aquatic products, every household lived a comfortable and prosperous life."

"But no one expected that one day, a terrifying monster would suddenly appear in the sea!"

"It was a gigantic shark that ruled over countless fish-men. No villager who ventured out to sea escaped; they were all mercilessly slaughtered. Even worse, the shark king sent fish-men ashore to negotiate, demanding that we offer a batch of children under ten years old every six months. If we refused, it would personally lead its army of fish-men to attack, vowing to utterly destroy Water Bay City!"

Xiao Ling'er and the casual players didn't care about the calamity that had occurred in Shuiwan City.

The lives and deaths of the people in the city had absolutely nothing to do with them.

After all, they were just passing through this station and would be leaving in an hour or two.

"So...you want us to help you kill that Shark King, right?"

Xiao Ling'er cuts straight to the point:

"What is the Shark King's strength?"

"What will be the reward after the deed is done?"

She didn't mind speaking so bluntly.

How can you expect them to do things without paying them?

"That Shark King... should be a level five being."

The old city lord, Adrian, spoke first.

A level five existence?!

Xiao Ling'er and the others' expressions all changed slightly!

This is an absolutely invincible and terrifying existence for them.

However, the thought of Lu Xingyuan beside them brought them a little peace of mind.

As the saying goes, even if the sky falls, there are always tall people to hold it up.

Without a doubt, Lu Xingyuan is the tall one!

"As for the reward after the deed is done..."

The old city lord gave Delank a look, and the latter understood immediately, quickly bringing out a tray covered with a red velvet cloth, on which were three items.

"This is the highest level of sincerity we can offer."

The old city lord lifted the velvet cloth, and the first thing that caught his eye was a broken red crystal.

Xiao Ling'er was initially dismissive, but when she read the information from the broken crystal, her expression instantly changed:

"A key that can open a level 5 treasure chest?!"

She exclaimed in surprise!

It's no secret that treasure chests of level 5 and above require keys to open.

Therefore, she was very clear about how precious the Level 5 Treasure Chest Key was!

Unexpectedly, the old city lord actually used it as a reward!

This is incredibly generous!

Next to the broken red crystal was a rusty iron nail.

This is also a key that can open a level 5 treasure chest!

Xiao Ling'er's head was buzzing!

I felt dizzy and disoriented!

Is this for real?!

There are actually two keys that can open level 5 treasure chests!

It truly lives up to its name as the Purple Platform!

The rewards this time are so generous that I'm speechless!

Next to the two keys was a tube of sea-blue medicine.

Underwater breathing agents

[Category: Extraordinary Creations]

[Level: 4]

[Note: This product was created by a mysterious witch. Consuming it grants the permanent ability to breathe underwater.]

This is also a rare treasure!

The ability to breathe underwater is a remarkable skill at any time, especially for those who cannot swim and are considered "landlubbers," it is like a lifesaver!

At this moment, whether it was Xiao Ling'er, the others, or even Pan Wei, their eyes were filled with greed.

With this level 5 treasure chest key, how can you not find a level 5 treasure chest?

If all else fails, they can sell the key through the trading channel for a large amount of train coins!

I'm sure many people are very interested in this key!

"I hope you can successfully slay the Shark King and bring back its heart. All these rewards will be yours."

The old city lord promptly covered it back with the velvet cloth.

Those gazes were so greedy, it was frightening.

"There are only three rewards, but we have a total of thirty people. How are we going to distribute them?"

Immediately, someone in the crowd raised a question.

He was a second-level train conductor. It was precisely because he knew his own power was limited and he didn't have much say that he put this issue on the table, wanting to discuss it clearly.

Leaving aside Lu Xingyuan and Pan Wei, the two fifth-level train conductors, just the fact that Xiao Ling'er, the fourth-level train conductor, is enough to give them a hard time is enough to make things difficult for them.

The other second-level train conductors also responded immediately:

"That's right! We need to distribute the rewards properly first, otherwise, wouldn't we be working for free for you high-ranking train conductors?"

"That's what I think too!"

"I can forgo the key to this level-five treasure chest, but you high-ranking train conductors must compensate me!"

"Don't you want this level 5 treasure chest key? I'd really like it."

"I propose that after we complete the task, we distribute the loot by rolling dice. How about that? Everyone gets a chance!"

"That's a great idea, I'll vote for it!"

"I'll vote too!"

Everyone voted voluntarily.

Some people voted to compensate with train coins, since no matter what, they would at least gain something and wouldn't have made a wasted trip.

Some people also voted for the dice-rolling method, as the three items meant three chances to roll the dice, and who knows, who knows, maybe they'll be the lucky one!

The old city lord shook his head:

"This is an internal matter for you to handle. All you need to do is bring me the Shark King's heart, and all the rewards mentioned above will be yours."

Xiao Ling'er coldly watched the crowd engaged in a heated discussion, and felt like laughing to herself.

As a level 5 monster, the Shark King is not so easy to deal with.

Right now, these casual players are just a burden!

Forget about helping, I'd be grateful if I didn't just let myself down!

"So my suggestion is, you all get back on the train!"

Xiao Ling'er showed no politeness whatsoever, coldly saying:

"A bunch of rabble think they can split the spoils of this battle? You've got a brilliant plan, but unfortunately, I won't let you have your way!"
