[’Now, I no longer have to worry about the train lagging behind the Train Crew’s strongest combat power. And in emergencies when the train needs to escape, I can just synchronize my speed with the train and control it to move extremely fast.’]
[You didn’t know how powerful or how fast you truly are. After all, you had just recently reached Peak Platinum rank, and then your true combat power became Initial Diamond rank.]
[Moreover, you realized that the space of the Train Survival World was more stable compared to the real-world Terra. Because it possessed a higher world-level, not only was it more durable, but its power suppression on its inhabitants was far greater.]
[Fortunately, the Train Survival World’s power suppression depended on the station world. If the station were of high rank, then the suppression would naturally be greater. But if it’s a weak station, then you could easily destroy it.]
[As for the Endless Barren Wasteland, the suppression was the greatest as you couldn’t fully display your power within it.]
[Because of that, while your power was yours and it wasn’t tampered with, the way it’s expressed and displayed was dependent on how stable the space and how durable the world was.]
[’Anyway, I shouldn’t worry about that much since the power suppression of a world is equally spread to all inhabitants. If everyone becomes weaker, then it’s the same as no one becoming weaker.’]
[You knew that if everyone were suppressed equally, then their power would still be somewhat the same since those who were undefeatable couldn’t be defeated regardless of the world’s suppression.]
[The only exception was that if someone offended the World Will, and the World Will decided to concentrate its world origin to suppress that specific person in particular.]
[However, that was another matter, and you weren’t worried much since the Zenith Train Crew wasn’t branded as cultists. As a law-abiding train crew who didn’t worship any Wild Gods and had even slain a Wild God’s Avatar, you weren’t worried about that.]
[After successfully upgrading the train to Level 25, you decided to check using Train Conductor Authority to see its stats.]

[Seeing the train status panel, you were quite surprised by the huge improvement of the Zenith Train compared to the last time you checked it.]
[With the train speed approximately at Mach 7.3, aka around seven times the speed of sound, you just glanced at it and didn’t really care, as your own travel speed was greater than it.]
[However, the durability was still shocking since it was a huge improvement from before. It was due to Jade upgrading modules that the percentage boosts and multiplicative boosts from certain modules increased durability and speed.]
[Examples of such modules were the Train Armor Plating, Advanced Energy Forcefield, and Mythrail Velocity Wheels. The only reason why, despite amassing a good amount of train coins and train cores, you didn’t have enough to upgrade the train was due to Jade upgrading the modules and carriages to Tier 3.]
[But from the looks of it, such actions were worth it. Eventually, they’d have to be upgraded, so there wasn’t any point in hoarding and stocking up on Train Cores when they could be immediately put to use.]
[’Clearly, a Train Core, no matter how rare and valuable it is, would only show its value when it’s used. Like money, if it’s not used, then it’s just waste paper.’]
[’But to be honest, train cores might truly hinder the progress of the Zenith Train. If the Random Train Encounter Extreme Event and I still haven’t found a reliable alternative in acquiring train cores, I might have to ask the World Will about it.’]
[You didn’t immediately ask the World Will since you felt it was troublesome. You knew the World Will had mostly answered your inquiries due to being the leading Terran Train Conductor and already possessing power comparable to some veteran Train Conductors.]
[However, that didn’t mean that the World Will was easy to speak to. As something that kidnapped an entire planet worth of people, not even sparing the young and elderly and letting them die helplessly, it wasn’t a benevolent existence.]
[You found it troublesome asking the World Will regarding that since it might request you to kill some Wild Gods, etc. It might even let you become a veteran Train Conductor prematurely.]
[For now, you weren’t interested in killing those Wild Gods yet, especially when you were still progressing and still hadn’t reached a bottleneck in your growth.]
[’It’s not too late to ask the World Will when the Random Train Encounter Extreme Event has ended and I no longer have the means to farm for Train Cores.’]
[Thinking of this, you no longer worry.]
[Checking the other improvement of the Zenith Train, you noticed that the Dwell Time had increased to a whopping 2 days and 14 hours.]
[With that much time, even if the station world was quite big, you still had confidence that you could dig up and plunder everything in sight!]
[Not only that, the early departure time was now 30 minutes. The lower the early departure time, the more confident you were in preserving the Zenith Train Crew’s safety in dangerous stations.]
[After Jade finished checking the train status panel, she also realized just how much the Zenith Train had improved, which brought a smile to her face.]
["Darling, with this low early departure time, we can be a bit bolder and choose those stations with Extremely High danger ratings!"]
