Chapter 902: Chapter 559 Good News

"The Philosopher’s Stone... I remember it’s one of the items up for auction this time." said White Deer, shaking his head. "But I’m not clear on which passenger might trade the Philosopher’s Stone."

All ghost trains have a strange medieval town as their final destination.

Once all the trains have arrived, a grand auction will be held there.

Those extremely special ’goods’ will all be sold there. The most special one was once the identity of a divine [Holder].

It shows how high-end the items at the auction are.

But Li Changhe didn’t want to go to that final station, even though Chen Yu said official passengers could assist Li Changhe and the Moon God.

Yet any conflict that erupts is sure to alarm that unknown divine existence.

At the same time, the competitive pressure at the auction is huge. If someone else or a guild has their eyes on the Philosopher’s Stone, it might not be won.

Although they have plenty of supplies — the Moon God has hundreds of Spirit Fruits and several pieces of epic equipment, and both He Feng and Li Changhe are equipped with war spoils and divine materials from Great Tang. Zhao Jiu can also bring out some equipment.

But if a major organization wants to get their hands on the Philosopher’s Stone, they’re likely not to skimp. A head-to-head contest won’t have a clear outcome.

And, there could be malicious bidding at the auction.

After all, the Blue Eyed White Dragon was once bid up to eighty million...

If possible, Li Changhe would prefer to find the player with the Philosopher’s Stone while still on the train.

To trade with them for these supplies, but if that’s not possible...

Knowing the character of the Moon God, he would probably force someone off the train. The Philosopher’s Stone is very important to him; he would do anything, dare to do anything!

Li Changhe just hoped that the player would know better.

After chatting with White Deer for a bit, he took his leave.

To build a good relationship with the new controller, he planned to go to the familiar passengers to probe for clues about the Philosopher’s Stone.

Meanwhile, Zhao Jiu was already certain that there were no non-human players in this carriage.

So, he planned to proceed to other carriages with the Moon God.

He Feng and Li Changhe decided to stay here and wait for contact from official passengers.

"How many forces will the officials send on board?" He Feng asked.

"Not too many, the traits of the station prevent many official members from getting close. Only those rare disguise-type equipment can infiltrate. That already limits the number of people," Li Changhe responded. "And the officials mean that if they can’t destroy all the trains in one go, they won’t make a move. Otherwise, it could provoke retaliation and cause even greater casualties."

"The ghost train is indeed troublesome. If you can’t finish it off completely, it’s an endless threat," He Feng replied. "And there’s also a divine existence that could get involved at any time."

The last operation against the trains was a major loss for the officials mainly because the enemy counterattacked using the ghost trains.

It was said that at that time, the divine existence took action, and a large number of His followers emerged. They appeared at a platform that hadn’t been detected.

This was also the first time a high deity invaded the real world.

Many official players built the Black Great Wall with their lives to hold back that wave of attack. They held out until the support of higher forces arrived.

Otherwise, the city where that platform was located would have faced a major disaster.

And my cousin and her lover were the ones who sacrificed themselves in that battle...

A high deity along with the traits of the ghost train means He could appear at any location at any time, making it all the more dangerous.

Therefore, the official stance on the trains is to either stand firm or strike a killing blow, and the time is not now.

If only... there were a supreme being on the side of humanity to deter, then surely that one wouldn’t dare to enter the real world so casually.

What frustrated the officials was that after spending so much and destroying so many platforms previously, new ones have emerged again through the management of these passengers.

Seeing my cousin grayed out in the [Friends] list, Li Changhe’s gaze gradually turned cold.

If possible, he needed to leave a deep ’gift’ for the ghost train.

In the following time, the train kept going, stopping at each platform in turn.

Some platforms had no one boarding, while others saw more than ten passengers get on at once.

The number of passengers in carriage number five, where Li Changhe was, slowly increased. Thanks to White Deer’s outreach, some passengers learned of the divine item trade with Li Changhe and several came willing to trade. After all, the temptation of divinity was great, and many passengers were willing to exchange epic-level equipment for it.

But Li Changhe just dismissed them saying he would only exchange for the ’Philosopher’s Stone.’ That should be enough. If that player was inclined to trade, they would come to him.

At that moment, a prompt for "Decomposition Complete" suddenly popped up in my consciousness.

"Decomposition Complete"

"Abyssal Stomping (Auxiliary Skill)"

"Type: Skill Learning Card"

"Learning Requirements: 12 points physique [Achieved]"

"Targeted as an enemy by an Abyssal Worm [Achieved]"

"Personally killed an Abyssal Worm [Achieved]"

"Usage Cost: 5 points of physical strength value"

"Effect: Cannot have an effect on living entities, but when you attack the ground, buildings, or nonliving vehicles, it will produce a shattering effect (destruction level related to the material of the ground)"

"Note 1: A skill decomposed from the teeth of thirteen Abyssal Worms"

"Note 2: One stomp creates one pit, remember to pay for the damages"

Seventeen hours after boarding the train, the materials from the bug finally finished decomposing!

"It turned out to be... a skill!" Li Changhe was stunned for quite a while.

After all, it was from thirteen teeth that had been decomposing for three days.

It was finally a skill that appeared for the unlucky Li Changhe!

"Looks like my luck is coming!" Li Changhe originally thought that this time materials would come out that could be used for synthesis. Then using the "Exercise" speed up. To directly complete the synthesis and the reforging with Big Lead.

But instead, it was a pleasant surprise.

"What can I say?... Congratulations first, I guess." Yun Ting commented with a bit of a tease, "After all, skills have come out of the box several times now."

"All because of you, Brother Ting!" Li Changhe had always blamed his bad luck on Yun Ting’s influence, yes, she was the one who had sucked away his fortune!

"You’re not short on words even with your bad luck!" Yun Ting naturally wouldn’t concede.

While Li Changhe and Yun Ting were blaming each other, Li Changhe went ahead and learned Abyssal Stomping.

The skill seemed quite lame, only effective against buildings or the ground.

But in actuality, skills that could destroy terrain at any time during combat are troublesome for enemies.

Especially in buildings, if one stomp could destroy the floor or a load-bearing column. Enemies would probably cry.

The question was just how powerful it really was.

Now on the train, it wasn’t a good time for Li Changhe to test it.

If the effect was good, then he would direct all 5 skill points into Abyssal Stomping.

At this time, they arrived at a new platform.

A few more passengers appeared in the train car, and Li Changhe’s [Friends] lit up with a message that was neither from Moon God nor He Feng.

[Iron Teeth Golden Tooth: Li, which car are you in?]

"Brother Golden Tooth?" Li Changhe was taken aback.

Iron Teeth Golden Tooth was the official player Li Changhe had met when Xiao Nan had entered Solomon’s instance.

Afterwards, during the Great Tang task, Li Changhe had contact with him, and they had become friends.

They didn’t talk much, mainly because it seemed Golden Tooth was avoiding something.

And considering the train was in a special space, friends from the outside world shouldn’t be able to make contact.

Does that mean Golden Tooth had already boarded the train? And he was the one officially assisting me this time?

"I’m in car number five!" Li Changhe replied.

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a flesh-colored leather apron and a pale smiling face mask appeared before Li Changhe. This was Golden Tooth.

"Let’s not catch up right now, I’ve brought you some good news."
