Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

After a moment of stunned silence, Lu Xingyuan finally came to his senses.

Aren't these the brother and sister we rescued at the last stop?

After thinking about it, he accepted the other party's chat request.

"The big boss saved my sister's and my lives. I can't just stand by and do nothing. I have to do something to repay this kindness."

On orbits thousands of miles apart.

The man typed this line of text on the screen.

He was taught from a young age to be grateful and repay kindness.

Lu Xingyuan first rescued him and his sister from Xue Long's clutches, and then gave them precious medical supplies. They could never repay this kindness.

But the more this is the case, the less he can afford not to repay it just because he can't afford it.

"elder brother……"

The younger sister beside her bit her red lips, her face filled with reluctance.

"Should we really give it to him?"

"This is something we worked so hard to get..."

She couldn't bear to part with it.

She couldn't be as generous as her brother.

After all, she felt sorry for her brother.

She felt like a burden, unable to help her brother much. Every time she saw him working so hard, her heart ached terribly.

Therefore, she desperately wanted her brother to leave that precious prop behind, after all, how many extraordinary encounters can one have in a lifetime?

"must."

However, the older brother's eyes were unusually firm.

The younger sister sat limply on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

She knew that once her brother made up his mind about something, not even ten oxen could pull him back.

She had no choice but to accept it all.

"Go ahead, do as you say."

She is certainly not an ungrateful person.

Her brother taught her by example every day, and she had long since learned how to be a good person.

Soon, the treasure that had been obtained by chance was traded away.

Despite being mentally prepared, the younger sister still couldn't help but feel a pang of pain.

She hugged her brother tightly, tears streaming down her face.

"elder brother!"

Her brother has suffered too much, and she doesn't want him to suffer like that!

"It's fine."

The man also hugged his sister tightly, gently patting her back.

"It will be alright."

He was well aware that the item he had just traded could very well change the course of his life.

But his life trajectory has already been changed by Lu Xingyuan, hasn't it? Otherwise, he would be a dead man by now.

So… he took a deep breath and continued to gently pat his sister’s back, “It’s okay, it’s really okay.”

Just then, the message notification sounded again.

The man stared intently, and his expression instantly turned into one of utter shock!

"hiss!"

"He...gave me two extraordinary creations!"

"One is level three...the other is level four!"

Level 3 Shadow Erosion!

Level 4 Thorn Collar!

What?!

The younger sister looked shocked, almost unable to believe it.

"Really?!"

"real!"

The man nodded vigorously, his face unable to hide his excitement.

"He said this is compensation for us!"

The younger sister's shoulders trembled slightly, and she stood there stunned for a long time, unable to come back to her senses.

She didn't know how much time had passed before she finally murmured something.

"He's such a good person!"

Now my brother's life will be easier, right?

On the other side, Lu Xingyuan.

He exhaled a breath of stale air, his heart still unable to calm down for a long time.

He never expected that this brother and sister would give him such a big gift!

What appeared in his hand was a card with a black metallic sheen, featuring a minimalist balance scale design in the center.

The background features a star and moon pattern outlined in extremely fine silver lines.

The back of the card features an intricate maze pattern.

The card itself was a deep black, but when Lu Xingyuan tried to tilt it, nebula-like purple and indigo light slowly swirled inside. It wasn't a physical image, but rather the colors emanating from the deep space itself.

Just by looking at the design of this card, you know it's something special, but its level is surprisingly only level one.

[Traveling Merchant Summoning Card]

[Category: Extraordinary Creations]

[Level: 1]

[Note: When moonlight falls upon the runes on the card, ancient incantations will awaken a slumbering pact. The legendary traveling merchant—that mysterious being who traverses the crevices of the world—will quietly stop beside your train in his mobile shop, powered by starlight and steam. His shelves display treasures from lost civilizations, relics of forgotten gods, and rare gems that even time itself yearns for. But remember: the merchant only accepts train coins as a medium of exchange and never offers credit. Therefore, please ensure you have enough train coins on hand, lest the whistle of opportunity sound in vain.]

Yes, that's right.

They are the legendary traveling merchants!

Lu Xingyuan first heard of this person from Gu Wanqing.

That was not long after the rainy season ended.

In order to meet him, Gu Wanqing activated the trial card she had purchased from the traveling merchant.

After that, Lu Xingyuan also heard the name of the traveling merchant from the chat channel.

Many train conductors were lucky enough to encounter Him during their journeys and purchase all sorts of magical and incredible gadgets from Him.

Therefore, Lu Xingyuan was filled with anticipation, wondering when he would be able to meet him.

As a result, the days passed by one by one.

He hadn't even seen a traveling merchant.

This forced him to face reality.

It seems I'm just not destined for that.

But haven't we all heard that there's always a way out?

The opportunity to meet with the traveling merchant unexpectedly fell into his hands.

He could meet the traveling merchant right now if he wanted to!

That's why Lu Xingyuan was so generous as to give away two extraordinary creations that he didn't need to the brother and sister.

After all, this is definitely a great gift!

Although I saved their lives, they could have chosen not to repay this kindness and not to offer me this precious item.

But they still did it, so how could Lu Xingyuan be stingy?

Suppressing the urge to activate the item on the spot, Lu Xingyuan glanced at his pocket—he had very few train coins left.

Forget it, let's save up enough coins first.

He observed in the chat channel that all the treasures sold by the traveling merchant were exceptionally expensive.

Many lucky train conductors, though they encountered the treasure, were too poor to afford it and could only watch helplessly as He took it away, ultimately gaining nothing and wasting this precious opportunity.

Lu Xingyuan had no intention of repeating their mistakes.

Anyway, this item won't run away as long as it's in my hands, and I can summon the traveling merchant at any time.

With that in mind, he no longer hesitated and directly listed "Kongming" on the trading channel, clearly noting that it needed to be traded using train coins.

The release of Level 6 Extraordinary Creations naturally sparked heated discussions.

After all, the most common items circulating in the trading channel are still level two and three extraordinary creations.

A Level 6 Extraordinary Creation is undoubtedly an existence that most train conductors can only dream of!

Many experienced train conductors also recognized it.

"Huh? Isn't this Sun Wuxing's treasure? Could it be...?"

They tried searching for Sun Wuxing's name in the chat channel, but found nothing. They suddenly realized what was happening and gasped in shock.

Sun Wuxing... he was actually killed!

He must have been seeking revenge for his younger brother Sun Wuqi, and then he was defeated by Lu Xingyuan!

If he were just an unknown nobody, that would be fine.

But he happens to be one of the few train conductors who has been promoted to level six!

This means that Lu Xingyuan's strength is probably far more unfathomable than it appears on the surface.
