64: Chapter 64 New Rules of the Dungeon

Su Chen casually stuck the bursting iron rod in his hand next to Andre's corpse, his tone carrying an air of unquestionable, absolute hegemony.

"I have no interest in interfering with how you scurry about like rats to survive, nor will I demand you kneel and pray every day like that fanatic did."

"My rules are simple: there is only one."

"In this Underground City, my word is the law of the Heavenly Dao System!"

"If anyone dares to harbor even a shred of ill intent toward my train or my crew, that headless fanatic will serve as the example for the rest of your lives!"

Hearing Su Chen announce that he wouldn't carry out a mass slaughter, the civilians on the brink of despair felt as if they were hearing the voice of heaven.

"Thank you, Lord Demon King, for your mercy!"

"We will absolutely obey your rules! You are the sole master of our Underground City!"

Someone took the lead in shouting, and thousands of people once again kowtowed and cheered in unison. The scene was ten times more fanatical than when Andre was alive.

Su Chen had zero interest in this hypocritical worship.

He turned his head and looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who was standing to the side with glowing eyes, her small hands making the ledger rustle as she rubbed it.

"Steward Su, don't just stand there."

"That fanatic lorded over this Underground City for so long; he must have hoarded plenty of good things."

"Take the Logistics Team and the Combat Team and empty his vault for me. Don't leave a single scrap behind!"

Hearing the Train Master finally give the supreme order to raid the house, Su Xiaoxiao was more excited than if she had drunk three bottles of genetic evolution potion.

"Understood, my greatest and most generous Train Master!"

Su Xiaoxiao pushed up the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, her exquisite and cute little face filled with the fanatical smile of a money-grubber.

"Sister Man, Qingyu, and Lin Momo, bring all our empty carts and storage backpacks. Follow this Steward and charge!"

Led by Su Xiaoxiao, a group of stunning girls—fierce as wolves and tigers—stepped directly over the corpses of the fanatics and marched toward the priest's treasury, which had been converted from an air-raid shelter deep within the Underground City.

Soon, bursts of uncontrollable, excited screams echoed from the dark tunnel ahead.

The luxury of this treasury clearly far exceeded the girls' imaginations.

Andre, that hypocritical fanatic, had pretended to be a man of few desires in front of the civilians, but behind their backs, he had pillaged all the most precious resources in the entire Underground City and stashed them here.

"We're rich! We're rich!"

"Train Master, there are two full tons of smokeless gunpowder and a thousand rounds of armor-piercing bullets that haven't gotten damp yet!"

Ye Qingyu's cheer, so excited her voice nearly cracked, came through the communicator.

As the Chief Mechanic of train no. 0099, these munitions—which could be converted into absolute firepower—were more enchanting to her than diamonds from the Old Era.

"Oh my god, this perverted priest actually hoarded so many Old Era brand perfumes, silk stockings, and high-end cosmetics in the warehouse!"

Lin Momo's soft and sweet voice carried a hint of shock and disgust.

Hearing about the high-end cosmetics and silk stockings, Liu Ruyan's charming peach-blossom eyes immediately lit up, and she stepped into the treasury with an elegant gait.

For a woman like her, who exuded mature charm at every moment, supplies that could help maintain a perfect appearance in the wasteland were also rare strategic reserves.

Su Chen stood alone on the platform, took out a premium cigar from the Old Era from his tactical trench coat pocket, lit it, and took a deep drag.

His SSS-rank talent, [Omni-Modification], which was as sharp as radar, was currently acting like an overloaded detector, constantly scanning the complex energy fields of the Underground City.

Suddenly.

Su Chen's brow twitched slightly, and a flash of surprised brilliance crossed his deep eyes.

"Hmm? This specific energy fluctuation..."

He immediately followed the peculiar frequency that only he could perceive, taking long strides with his slender legs into the treasury that the girls had already turned upside down.

Passing through mountains of military canned goods and crates of oil-stained mechanical parts.

Su Chen arrived directly in front of a seemingly flawless solid rock wall at the deepest part of the treasury.

"Train Master, why did you come in personally?"

Su Xiaoxiao, who was frantically directing the girls to pack crates while holding two gold bars in her own hands, leaned over curiously.

"Behind this wall, the real good stuff is hidden."

A mysterious smile curled at the corner of Su Chen's mouth.

He took a deep breath, and the physical strength within his body erupted. His right fist, wrapped in terrifying kinetic energy, slammed into the hard rock wall like a launched armor-piercing shell!

Boom!

Accompanied by a thunderous roar that shook the earth and mountains.

Under Su Chen's violent destruction—which surpassed the limits of carbon-based organisms—the half-meter-thick disguised rock wall shattered like a spiderweb and collapsed, revealing a huge opening.

Inside the hidden compartment of the opening sat a sealed display case made of pure bulletproof glass.

And in the very center of this display case.

Quietly lay a blueprint radiating a piercing, holy, and dazzling golden light filled with endless sci-fi mysteries!

"What... grade of blueprint is this?!"

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes were stung by the dense, almost solid golden light, and her cute little face was filled with unbelievable shock.

Having survived in the wasteland world for so long, the highest-grade blueprint she had ever seen was only a peak Silver Grade.

But the energy fluctuation emitted by the blueprint before her was hundreds or thousands of times more terrifying than a Silver Grade one!

Su Chen reached out, shattered the bulletproof glass, and took the glowing golden blueprint into his hand.

Ding!

The crisp and pleasant system notification sounded in his mind like the most beautiful celestial music in the world.

[Congratulations to Train Master Su Chen of train no. 0099 for discovering rare hidden supplies!]

[Successfully obtained Strategic Core Item: Anti-Gravity Levitation Train Chassis Blueprint (Incomplete)!]

[Item Quality: golden grade (Unique)!]

[Item Description: A miraculous creation born from the fusion of the highest technology of the Old Era and the laws of the Heavenly Dao.]

[Core Attribute: Once successfully repaired and equipped, your train chassis will completely abandon the constraints of outdated wheels and tracks!]

[Advanced Effect: The train will gain levitation capabilities that break the laws of gravity, achieving a low-altitude hovering state up to ten meters above the ground!]

[Absolute Advantage: In this state, your train will completely ignore any broken bridges, bottomless abysses, death marshes, or complex terrain obstacles on the wasteland, achieving true all-terrain dominance!]

Looking at this perfect attribute panel that could be said to defy fate, Su Chen's habitually cold and steady heart couldn't help but throb violently a few times.

Anti-gravity levitation!

Breaking free from the shackles of the tracks!

This was an ultimate divine skill that could completely change the survival form of all wasteland trains!

Under the current desperate rules where all players had to travel along rail routes mandated by the Heavenly Dao System like headless flies.

If his abyss roarer could truly achieve low-altitude levitation flight.

It meant he would possess absolute freedom to change course at any time and cross any deadly trap!

"Hahaha, that pig Andre. He sat on a gold mine that could drive the entire East China Region mad, yet he only used it as a decoration."

Su Chen let out an incredibly arrogant laugh and unceremoniously stored this priceless golden grade blueprint into his personal storage space.

Although the blueprint was currently in an "incomplete" state and required a massive amount of rare resources and high-level cores to repair.

For Su Chen, who possessed the SSS-rank [Omni-Modification] talent, this was merely a matter of time.

After completely looting Andre's treasury—not even sparing the thousands of tons of high-calorie flesh and blood coal stored for winter in the Underground City—

The fully loaded abyss roarer, like an ancient beast that had eaten its fill, let out a satisfied and violent steam roar.

The train's storage cars were packed to the brim with various precious munitions, food, medical supplies, and personal items that the girls had blushingly hidden away.

Even the coolant tank of the primary steam boiler had been refilled with high-grade antifreeze that emitted a ghostly blue glow.

"Ling Yi, start the train. Target: the exit of the Abyssal Ghost Tunnel."

Su Chen lay comfortably in the large leather command chair of the main control room and issued the departure order.

"Understood, Master. Estimated time to exit the current aurora danger zone is twenty minutes."

Ling Yi's perfect virtual holographic projection bowed slightly, and then the train's massive dark-gold body began to accelerate smoothly on the tracks.

Chu Qingxue held a cup of warm water—freshly purified by the intermediate water recycling system and with a slice of mutated lemon added—and obediently held it to Su Chen's lips.

Liu Ruyan knelt behind the command chair, using her soft, boneless hands to professionally and provocatively massage Su Chen's broad shoulders.

In this isolated steel fortress, Su Chen enjoyed top-tier treatment akin to that of an ancient emperor.

However, beautiful moments of relaxation were always extremely brief.

When the massive front of the abyss roarer finally rolled over the last stretch of rusty tracks and completely burst out of that ghost tunnel that had been oppressive for a full three hundred kilometers—

The suddenly open view ahead did not make everyone feel relieved.

Instead, all the girls in the control room simultaneously sucked in a breath of bone-chilling air!

"My god... what kind of hell has descended?"

Zhang Man pressed her hands firmly against the explosion-proof glass, her wild eyes suddenly shrinking to their limit.

Su Chen also suddenly stood up from the command chair, his deep gaze staring fixedly at the despair-inducing wasteland ahead.
