87: Chapter 87 Major Event: Cloud Sea Mechanical God Realm!

The first rays of the morning sun, like a sharp golden sword, struggled to pierce through the thick, radioactive haze covering the wasteland sky.

More than a hundred meters above the ground.

The [abyss roarer], a steel beast radiating a dark golden metallic luster, was cruising in suspension beneath the endless sky with an absolutely steady and arrogant posture.

The rows of deep blue anti-gravity engines at its bottom, resembling the breath of an ancient dragon, were constantly spewing out high-purity plasma flames.

After Su Xiaoxiao's thrilling S-rank talent awakening last night, the atmosphere on the entire train had become unprecedentedly buoyant and relaxed.

Especially Su Xiaoxiao, that little money-grubber who used to be deeply insecure, now walked with her head held high every day, wishing she could write the words "No. 1 Reseller of the Apocalypse" on her forehead.

At this moment.

Su Chen was lazily leaning back on the large, soft leather sofa in the second-floor panoramic living area.

He was wearing a loose, pure black silk bathrobe with the collar slightly open, revealing his solid and perfect chest muscles. He held a glass of top-quality red wine that had just been chilled with ice cubes, his deep, cold eyes nonchalantly overlooking the devastated wasteland outside the window.

"Heh, these mutated beasts that can only roll in the mud no longer even have the qualification to look up at the chassis of my train."

Su Chen let out a cold sneer from the bottom of his heart, filled with an absolute sense of superiority.

He thoroughly enjoyed this supreme sense of control, stepping on the entire world and holding the fates of the masses in his palm like playthings.

When he used to run on the tracks, he would encounter the frustrating situation of being blocked by a few bronze-grade mutated pigs.

Now?

Completely ignoring the terrain!

Swamps, rifts, broken bridges, and even the ruins of skyscrapers from the old era that towered into the clouds, all turned into passing scenery in front of his anti-gravity suspension train!

This kind of dimensionality-reduction strike, jumping directly from a two-dimensional plane to a three-dimensional space, was so satisfying it made one's scalp tingle.

"However..."

Su Chen swirled the red wine glass in his hand slightly, the scarlet liquid leaving a charming halo on the glass wall.

"The water in this East China Region is still too shallow. Those so-called overlords and regular armies don't even have the qualification to make me go all out. It really doesn't feel very fulfilling to fight them."

A flash of fanatical desire for higher-level combat crossed Su Chen's eyes.

In his blood, the violent factors belonging to a militant naturally flowed. He needed stronger enemies and more precious blueprints to constantly feed his ambition that could never be satisfied!

Just as this sense of loneliness—that it is cold at the top—arose in Su Chen's heart.

"Hum——!"

On the holographic projection screen, a burst of brilliant golden light, ten million times more dazzling than the sun, suddenly erupted without warning!

This light even penetrated the train's physical defenses directly, forcibly condensing into a huge golden parchment scroll that radiated supreme majesty in the middle of the entire second-floor living area!

"Warning! Highest level Heavenly Dao will detected!"

"Master, this is a global targeted invitation with the highest encryption level. Only Train Masters ranked in the top one hundred in global comprehensive combat power are qualified to receive it!"

In the originally cold, electronically synthesized voice of the AI big sister Ling Yi, there was now, for the first time ever, a hint of anthropomorphic trembling and excitement.

"Global top one hundred?"

Su Chen sat up straight abruptly, and a burst of fanatical brilliance, like a physical substance, instantly exploded from his calm, unruffled eyes.

He slammed the red wine glass in his hand onto the table and strode toward the golden parchment scroll.

"I was just worried that this wasteland was too boring; this Heavenly Dao System is truly considerate. Open it for me!"

Following Su Chen's command, the golden scroll slowly unfolded in mid-air.

Lines of huge characters, as if cast from burning gold, carrying a majestic momentum that shook the soul, were directly imprinted into the depths of Su Chen's retinas!

[Ding! Global top-tier era dungeon—[Cloud Sea Mechanical Divine Realm], will officially open in twelve hours!]

[Coordinates: Above the stratosphere at an altitude of ten thousand meters!]

[Background Introduction: This ruin is the crystallization of the highest peak of human mechanical civilization in the old era, composed of countless huge floating island clusters suspended in the stratosphere, with countless old-day mechanical creations and god-level guards sleeping inside!]

[Entry Restriction: Because the Divine Realm is located at an altitude of ten thousand meters and is surrounded by strong electromagnetic radiation storms, it is limited to armed trains that possess 'perfect flight/anti-gravity suspension' capabilities or have mastered top-tier climbing technology to forcibly ascend and enter!]

[Final Reward: The Train Master who successfully seizes the Divine Realm core and ultimately survives will receive a guaranteed [golden grade] or higher train transition blueprint, as well as countless old-day peak mechanical technology diagrams!]

Looking at these lines of glittering golden text, Su Chen felt as if the blood in his entire body was burning crazily like boiling magma at this moment!

"Ten thousand meters altitude? Cloud Sea Mechanical Divine Realm? A guaranteed golden grade or higher blueprint?!"

Su Chen roared crazily in his heart, his mouth curling into an almost insane, bloodthirsty smile.

"This is truly like being handed a pillow just as I felt sleepy!"

"I just modified my train into an amphibious suspension form, and this Heavenly Dao System immediately spawned a high-altitude god-level dungeon tailor-made for flying vehicles!"

"This is practically shoving a golden rice bowl right into my mouth!"

Su Chen paced back and forth in excitement, his large hands clenched tightly into fists due to extreme agitation.

He knew too well how terrifying the benefits of a single incomplete golden grade blueprint could be! That was a heaven-defying divine item that allowed him to leave the ground and fly into the sky!

If he could get a complete golden grade, or even a dark gold grade blueprint that surpassed golden grade, in this so-called Cloud Sea Divine Realm this time...

Then wouldn't his abyss roarer directly evolve into an interstellar star destroyer capable of navigating in outer space?!

At this moment.

Although this golden invitation was only sent to the top one hundred global big shots.

However, to highlight the shock of this global major event, the Heavenly Dao System directly announced the dungeon's opening information across the entire network in the public area chat channel of the whole server, using eye-catching red text!

At this instant.

The hundreds of millions of survivor players in the entire wasteland world completely fell into an unprecedented avalanche-like madness!

The barrage on the world chat channel scrolled crazily like a breached flood, and even Ling Yi's processor was almost frozen by this massive flow of information.

"Holy sh*t, holy sh*t, holy sh*t! Cloud Sea Mechanical Divine Realm? Ten thousand meters altitude?! Heavenly Dao System, are you f*cking kidding me?!"

"My train doesn't even have a decent steam boiler right now, and I can only crawl on the tracks like a snail every day. You want me to go to an altitude of ten thousand meters to fight a dungeon? How am I supposed to fly there?!"

"How the hell is this a dungeon prepared for us ordinary players? This is clearly a blind date party prepared by the Heavenly Dao System specifically for those few god-like big shots who are cheating!"

"Wuwuwu... Why?! Everyone traveled to this wasteland world at the same time. Why do we have to eat mud and pick up trash on the ground, while the big shots can fly to the stratosphere to grab golden grade blueprints? This is so unfair!"

"Shut up, the one above! The wasteland world has always been about the survival of the fittest. If you have the ability, go get a suspension chassis yourself! I bet that in the entire East China Region, besides the Train Master Su Chen of train no. 0099 who completed the golden grade modification full-server announcement yesterday, there is absolutely no second person qualified to touch the threshold of this dungeon!"

"Oh my god! Just thinking about the big shot Su Chen representing our East China Region to fight against the top perverted gods of the whole world makes my little heart beat so fast it's about to jump out! Go, big shot Su Chen! Beat all those foreign players down!"

Looking at the comments on the holographic screen from ordinary players, filled with despair, bitterness, and fanatical worship of himself.

Su Chen sneered, waved his hand very casually, and let Ling Yi close the noisy chat channel.

"Fairness? In this world, truth only ever exists within the range of the train's main cannons; the weak don't even have the qualification to complain."

Su Chen sat back down on the large captain's chair, his hands crossed under his chin, his deep eyes flashing with a tactical gleam as sharp as a hawk's.

He didn't care at all about the life or death of those low-level players; his attention was now entirely focused on those top global players who had also received this golden invitation.

"Train Masters ranked in the top one hundred globally... truly a number that makes one's blood boil."

Su Chen calculated secretly in his heart.

"Those bandits and warlords in the East China Region have already been stepped on by me to the point where they don't even have the courage to look up. But this world is too big; there is absolutely more than just me, Su Chen, who possesses heaven-defying trump cards."

"Those old-school overlords in the West who inherited the top chaebol capital of the old era, it is said that some dug up complete heavy mecha production lines at the start."

"And those lunatics in the North known as the fighting nation, I heard that their trains are all powered by highly concentrated nuclear reactors..."

"Usually, everyone cannot cross over to each other because of the fog barriers of the regions, and can only rule as kings in their own newbie villages."

"But now, this Cloud Sea Divine Realm is a giant gu-breeding ground intentionally built by the Heavenly Dao System!"

Thinking of this, Su Chen not only had no fear of the unknown, but all the cells in his body were cheering crazily because of the peak collision that was about to come!

"Come on! Gather all the strongest people on this planet together!"

"Only by climbing up on the corpses of these so-called global overlords can my, Su Chen's, throne be forged to be even more indestructible!"

Su Chen stood up abruptly from the captain's chair, his tall and straight figure radiating a terrifying kingly pressure sufficient to collapse the void!

"Ling Yi!"

Su Chen's domineering voice, like a great bell, instantly spread to every carriage of the entire abyss roarer.

"Immediately cut off the current cruising route! According to the coordinates provided by the invitation, lock onto [Cloud Sea Mechanical Divine Realm] at full power!"
