Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

"Pay up! You almost ruined my perfect leader image in Teemo's eyes!"

Lu Xingyuan successfully got 5 train coins from Gu Wanqing, which made him feel much better.

Gu Wanqing continued cursing: "Damn it! You got a photo from me for free, and now you're asking me for money? Is there any justice in this world? Is there no law?"

She was eager to contact Lu Xingyuan because she wanted to get some benefits from him.

Unexpectedly, this stingy man not only refused to spend a penny, but also swindled her out of a sum of money. Five train tickets were quite a lot; they could buy several pairs of stockings.

Here, take it.

Lu Xingyuan sent the unopened packages of various colored stockings directly to Gu Wanqing.

"This is what I've gained from these past few days of hard work."

Gu Wanqing sent a red panda head emoji directly—Are you kidding me?

"I'm not kidding, it's more real than pearls."

Drop drop drop.

Cai Cai's private message popped up at that moment.

"Brother Lu, I want stockings too."

Although she didn't manage to get the emoji set, Lu Xingyuan clearly sensed a resentful aura.

Depend on!

Gu Wanqing, what have you done!

Lu Xingyuan felt like he had been tricked!

Fortunately, he specially reserved two pairs for Cai Cai, one black and one white.

Cai Cai then stopped crying and started laughing.

After waiting a while, she sent me two photos directly.

These are pictures of her wearing black stockings and white stockings.

Her legs were smooth and well-proportioned, unlike Gu Wanqing's slender and long legs, but they had a gentle and jade-like fullness.

Lu Xingyuan: "..."

He patted Timo on the shoulder.

"Stay here and don't wander around. I'll be right back..."

Teleport!

Teemo blinked, looking confused.

"what?"

Meanwhile, Gu Wanqing, looking at her chat interface with Cai Cai, let out a mischievous giggle!

"Serves you right for ripping me off 5 train tickets! Serves you right for ripping me off!"

She switched to Lu Xingyuan's chat window and sent a message.

A minute passed, and there was no reply.

Five minutes passed, and there was still no reply.

Ten minutes passed, and there was still no reply.

Ok?

Gu Wanqing was stunned.

What's going on?

No, say something! Say something!

She switched back to Cai Cai's window.

Similarly, the message was never answered.

Gu Wanqing: "..."

I dare not laugh anymore, can't I just cry?

o (╥﹏╥) o

……

Three hours later.

Teemo really did stay in the same spot and didn't move an inch.

"Boss, you seem to have been gone for quite a while this time..."

He blinked, wondering why.

Lu Xingyuan coughed twice, his expression somewhat unnatural.

It's probably because of Gu Wanqing.

She wasn't involved, yet she delivered the crucial blow.

"...Anyway, the reason I went to see your sister Cai Cai this time was simply to find out what has happened in the train world these past few days."

Lu Xingyuan said in a very serious tone.

Alice hesitated, then said, "Dad, I'll give you a look; you'll understand."

Timo was simple-minded and didn't think too much about it. Following Lu Xingyuan's words, he asked:

"Did the boss get any useful information?"

"Of course."

Lu Xingyuan nodded.

"First, the seven-day window following the end of winter will close tonight, meaning we'll be welcoming the new season at midnight tonight!"

"Alas!"

Teemo couldn't help but shudder.

Whether it's the rainy season or winter, his experience is terrible.

He couldn't help but wonder, is there no normal season in the world of trains?

Every season feels like it's driving the train conductor to his death!

"Secondly, with the changing seasons, the server merge will also be coming!"

"Merge... districts!?"

Timo looked up at Lu Xingyuan with shining eyes.

"Are we about to run into train conductors from other sections?"

"right."

Lu Xingyuan nodded.

The information provided by Zhao Nanzhi was indeed correct; the merging of the regions was indeed true.

"Why do I feel both nervous and excited?"

Timo's feelings were complicated.

He both hoped to encounter powerful experts to test the results of his cultivation, and worried that the train conductors from other divisions were too powerful and would have a negative impact on Lu Xingyuan.

"Anyway, the merger of districts is a done deal, whether we accept it or not, it's all the same."

Lu Xingyuan shrugged.

In fact, it wasn't just Teemo who reacted this way; all the train conductors in Division 11 also behaved the same way after learning the news.

"Merge zones??? Merge train conductors with those from other zones???"

"Holy crap! That's so exciting!"

"Holy crap! Holy crap! I heard from the train conductors who participated in the dungeon challenge that the conductors in the other divisions are all pretty strong, especially in Division 10, which is full of experts! Are we going to have to merge with them into the same division? The competition will be insane!"

"I'm actually looking forward to the server merge. Right now, our 11th division is like a stagnant pool, completely lacking competitiveness! Only by maintaining healthy competitiveness can we achieve better development!"

"Does this mean I might run into someone I know in the real world? When the game first started, I did a search and found no one I recognized in server 11. I was wondering if they might have been moved to other servers. I hope my good buddies are doing well in their new servers and can help me out after the servers merge. Please!"

"..."

The announcement about the merger was issued this morning. After several hours of dissemination and fermentation, although the train conductors had their own thoughts, they gradually accepted this established fact.

"Boss, I'm going to the Multiverse Martial Arts Arena!"

"Since there's pressure, I'm going to turn that pressure into motivation!"

Timo left full of energy.

Lu Xingyuan glanced at the time; it was only 8 o'clock, and there were still 4 hours until 12 o'clock. There was plenty of time.

He couldn't waste any more time, so he pulled the scroll out of his dimensional black stockings, pinned his sister down, and questioned her:

"Huh?! What on earth is going on?!"

He pointed to the ethereal woman in the painting and recounted how he was almost killed by the child city lord with a single sword strike that seemed to cleave the heavens.

Sister Shou gently stroked the painting with her index finger, as if stirring up some distant memory.

Lu Xingyuan blinked.

"So... Sister Shou, you really look like this? You're so beautiful it's almost bubbly."

What girl doesn't like to hear compliments?

Sister Shou suddenly became haughty, and Lu Xingyuan seemed to hear a soft snort: Hmph~

Lu Xingyuan struck while the iron was hot.

"Don't worry, Sister Shou, I will definitely find a way to restore your body to its full size and never let you suffer like this again."

Sister Shou softened completely, her fair little hand gently brushing across Lu Xingyuan's face, finally landing a little on his brow.

Congratulations on acquiring the Level 8 skill: Fated Retribution!
