It was not only circular, but also covered in intricate grids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without checking its details, she could tell at a glance that this was something extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt like pulling a guaranteed rare item after countless gacha rolls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A special blueprint?\" Yu Nian couldn’t help but ask curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng glanced at it but found no useful information. After tucking it away, the group ascended the stairs to the next floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second floor was just as dimly lit, but it was no longer empty. A narrow hallway stretched before them, lined with countless doors on either side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the first floor, a palm-sized screen was embedded in the wall near the staircase, displaying some information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng and Yu Nian stepped forward to take a closer look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Station Introduction: Snow Mountain Castle has been abandoned for years, contaminated by countless unknown objects. Clean them up, and you may receive rewards, but you will face danger along the way.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Current Cleanup Progress: 8%]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Reminder: If cleanup progress remains below 50%, the station will struggle to operate, preventing normal departures.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Remaining Time Until Departure: 5h 28m \u002F 4h 17m]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So we’re being forced to open blind boxes, huh?\" Yu Nian immediately understood, then blinked in surprise. \"Wait, Little Cheng, why do you have an extra hour compared to me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng rolled her eyes. \"Looks like that throne earlier was one of the contaminating items.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And destroying it had given them a reward at that time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The task was simple, but they would have to search the entire castle to complete it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of thought, Bai Cheng said, \"We don’t know how big this station is, and time is limited. Nian Nian, let’s split up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then turned to Zi Yuan. \"I’ll have my employee go with you. You’ll be safe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Nian hesitated but eventually nodded. \"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You take the odd-numbered floors, I’ll take the even-numbered ones. Let’s make this quick.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Yu Nian and Zi Yuan headed upstairs, while Bai Cheng and Chi Yan entered the second-floor corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for why she didn’t send Chi Yan with Yu Nian, Bai Cheng was worried that his rough appearance might scare her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saving time was one thing, but more importantly, she didn’t want Yu Nian to leave the station empty-handed. She needed resources too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air reeked of a moldy smell. The dark, rotting wooden doors lining the hallway hid unknown dangers behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng sighed. \"Well, this is truly a blind box. Chi Yan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a step back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chi Yan stepped forward and smashed the dilapidated door with a single punch before entering first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Lady, there is no danger ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Bai Cheng step inside. The glow from Chi Yan’s flames illuminated the room, showing a classic bedroom with a large bed, a deep red carpet, and a bronze vanity mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But nothing immediately stood out as contaminated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just to be safe, she ordered, \"Chi Yan, destroy everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wave of flames surged, sweeping through the room. Suddenly, the wardrobe shattered, and two wraiths lunged out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they were no match for Chi Yan, who obliterated them in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his Elite Rank strength, he was overpowered even for the second station, which was why Bai Cheng wasn’t worried at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the wall lamps flickered to life, dispelling the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng spotted several green crystals scattered on the nightstand and couldn’t help but ask: \"What’s this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She picked up three egg-sized, translucent orbs. They were cool to the touch, like oversized marbles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Lady, these are... magic crystals,\" Chi Yan said, sounding surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng gave him a questioning look, and he explained further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They only drop from killing magical beasts above the Common Rank. Absorbing their energy can make you stronger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng suddenly realized that they were something like EXP books.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These are great. Too bad there are only three.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from that, the room had nothing else of value. However, there was a large window in the room, which immediately caught Bai Cheng’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the first station, the walls had blocked her view. Now, she might finally get a glimpse of the terrain ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She opened the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A howling blizzard roared inside, the frigid wind instantly dropping the room’s temperature. Bai Cheng shivered violently and slammed the window shut before she could even see outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it hit her. \"Swamp Mine Station, then Muddy Swamp... and now Snow Mountain Castle Station.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, she was in for a winter wonderland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I hate winter...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After clearing every room on the second floor, Bai Cheng and Chi Yan found no more magic crystals, not even another blueprint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"’Danger and rewards’, my ass. More like 80% danger!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grumbling, she stepped back into the hallway—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the wall lamps suddenly lit up all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the far end, under an orange-red glow, stood a treasure chest about half her height.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A surprise reward!\" Bai Cheng’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the chests she found in the wild, this one was larger, almost the size of a storage crate and bore no markings or grade indicators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she opened it, she discovered that it was a spatial treasure chest with five storage slots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each slot could hold 20 units, giving her a total of 100 copper ore, all of which she stuffed into her backpack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reward was underwhelming, but at least smelting the ore would unlock crafting products of the Bronze Age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to the stairwell, the screen now showed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cleanup Progress: 49%]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Cheng’s duo hadn’t seen Yu Nian and Zi Yuan until now on the third floor, which meant that they must have been ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fourth floor wasn’t another dark hallway but another vast hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large screen at the far end cast a pale glow, illuminating the strange structure at the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a hemisphere wrapped in irregular black metal strips, converging at the top to hold a diamond-shaped crystal that was emitting a brown light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around it lay four piles of what looked like garbage. They were twisted branches wrapped around unknown objects, shrouded in black mist and flickering with green light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Chi Yan stepped into the hall, the black mist surged, and four bizarre green creatures materialized, their eyes burning red as they lunged at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The outcome was predictable. They were completely annihilated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four piles of garbage were incinerated, and the central crystal clattered to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, a new message appeared on the nearby screen:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Congratulations! You have obtained a Train Armor Core!]\u003C\u002Fp>",1129,"2026-05-30T12:49:14.131Z","2026-06-01T04:31:15.945Z",1,"novelbin.me","29b047e856550d24b2577d1edeb7c0d2b141c3cf27398df59f0cc88ef31e918f","infinite-train-survival-apocalypse-but-i-m-a-gir-chapter-54","infinite-train-survival-apocalypse-but-i-m-a-gir-chapter-52",80,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finfinite-train-survival-apocalypse-but-i-m-a-gir-cover.jpg"]
