["As long as the Crystal Gem Fruits can be converted into seeds, we can let Old MacDonald plant and nurture them."]
["I’ll assist him using World Order and Absolute Boundary and ensure that with enough nutrients and fertilizers, the Initial Crystal-grade Crystal Gem Fruits can reach Peak Crystal-grade."]
["Not only that, it’s even possible to let the Crystal Gem Fruits reach Mythril-grade. Before, it might not have been possible, but with the defeat of the Angel of Death Race powerhouses, I can transform the Late Mythril rank Angel of Death’s blood and flesh into fertilizers."]
["With Late Mythril-grade fertilizers, I doubt we won’t be able to harvest our own Late Mythril-grade stat boosting fruit."]
[Hearing your plan, Jade and the rest of the Zenith Train Crewmates were undoubtedly looking forward to it.]
[Morvane had known from the others that the previous stat-boosting items the Train Crew had used were mostly from Station Worlds that granted wishes.]
[In other words, if your plan succeeded, then the Zenith Train Crew would no longer have to rely on those Station Worlds to look for a stat-boosting item.]
[Rather than looking for a stat-boosting crop, what would become the utmost priority would be to find powerhouses of a certain power rank in order to convert their corpses into fertilizers.]
[Realizing that, Jade commented, "If your plan can succeed, we’ll only need to find those powerhouses rather than stat-boosting crops. If our power rank increases, then we’ll naturally be able to hunt those powerhouses stronger than us and convert them into fertilizers."]
["Moreover, finding such powerhouses is way more common as stronger Station Worlds would naturally possess stronger powerhouses. Compared to finding stat-boosting items, that alternative is way easier."]
["Of course, for this to happen, either your World Order will have to put in the work, or Old MacDonald finds a way using his own abilities. I’m pretty sure his Spirit Avatar Abilities and Bloodline Magic would be able to achieve what we needed."]
[You and the others were familiar with Old MacDonald’s skill set, and they were mostly biased towards farming and ranching. Due to that, it was either for planting and nurturing crops, or domesticating wild beasts.]
[Old MacDonald might not be that relevant in battle as he preferred to retire to his ranch, but he could still be relied on when it comes to farming and ranching, as that was his specialty.]
[With that plan in mind, you ended the meeting and let the train crewmates do whatever they wanted. You had already assigned Morvane to his residence in Carriage 1 Advanced Apartment.]
[Even if there are thousands of members, the size of the Advanced Apartment could easily house that, let alone just you, Jade, Scarlet, and Morvane.]
[As soon as you dismissed everyone, Morvane immediately headed to the training room. You knew that he’ll likely make use of the hundred million mortal souls you gave him, which would allow him to upgrade his Death Authority to Initial Mythril rank.]
[Scarlet also went to the training ground to further improve her combat power. That battle with the Mid Mythril rank Angel of Death had made her realize the gap between her and stronger powerhouses.]
[As for Jade, she headed to the Advanced Apartment’s living room and took a manga from one of the shelves, reading it with interest.]
[Although Jade could even defeat some of the characters in those manga and cast magic spells, she still finds it interesting to read the stories of others.]
[Before, Terrans like her would read fictional fantasy works mostly for self-insert or wish-fulfillment, for the sake of idealizing a world where they could use magic for convenience and escapism.]
[But after the Advent of the Train Conductor Era, Terran Train Conductors could now achieve what fictional fantasy characters could.]
[In some way, their journey might even be more fantastical, as unlike most fictional fantasy characters, Train Conductors could travel between countless station worlds!]
[As for Astraea, she went to her castle, which was located in the Advanced Blood Orchard. You didn’t know what she planned to do there, but you didn’t care as you still respected their privacy.]
[As long as what your train crewmates did wouldn’t amount to betrayal or the inconvenience of the Zenith Train Crew, you wouldn’t care what they’d do and wouldn’t use Hint Prompt to spy on them.]
[After your train crewmates went to do their own business, you headed to Carriage 2, where Old MacDonald’s ranch was located.]
[When you met up with Old MacDonald, he already knew what you wanted to ask since Jade relayed the conversation you all had in the zenith chat group for Old MacDonald to know.]
[Taking the Crystal Gem Fruit you’ve handed to him, Old MacDonald looked at it for a while before stating, "I can make a seed out of this, but it will take quite a long time. Time shouldn’t be a problem, right?"]
[You nodded, "Yes, I don’t care how long it will take. I can use the Realm Core to open a subspace in your ranch. Staying in that subspace will allow you to experience a month inside while a day outside passes."]
[Hearing your words, Old MacDonald nodded in agreement.]
[Since Old MacDonald didn’t refuse, you immediately wielded the Realm Core and, with a snap of your fingers, a portal appeared in the ranch which led to the subspace you were talking about.]
[With the subspace already being made, Old MacDonald headed to the portal and entered the subspace.]
[Not only Old MacDonald, but you also went inside with him. After all, you were someone who had read hundreds of thousands of magical books, and a portion of them were related to plant and life magic.]
[Due to that, you could assist Old MacDonald in reducing the time it would take to develop the seeds for the Crystal Gem Fruit.]
[Aside from that, you also possessed Absolute Boundary and World Order, which could ensure that you’ll be able to make the impossible possible.]
[After you and Old MacDonald entered the subspace, the two of you assisted each other in converting the Crystal Gem Fruit into a seed version.]
[Time passed, and a week and a few days have passed.]
[During that time, the Random Train Encounter Extreme Event had already ended. Not only that, the Extreme Event after that, which was Extreme Heat, had also ended.]
[Currently, the Extreme Event occurring was Extreme Cold, but your Zenith Train possessed the Temperature Stabilizer Module, so it wasn’t a problem for you all.]
[During this time, aside from assisting Old MacDonald in seclusion, you had also taken the time to take advantage of the Terran Train Conductors.]
[With your capability of engraving magic runes on almost anything, you even created clothing that could keep someone cool or keep someone warm regardless of outside temperature.]
[Because of that, you took advantage of pitching those products in the Trade Market at a high price. Most Terran Train Conductors couldn’t afford it, and you ignored their pleas, as you held a monopoly, so they couldn’t do anything aside from cursing and swearing at you in secret.]
[Those who had publicly challenged and cursed at you were blocked by you and prevented from buying your items. Due to that, no one dared to oppose you again.]
[You took advantage of these two Extreme Events to sell your products at a high price, to the point that those who couldn’t afford it could only take a loan from you.]
[Due to your high-interest loans using the Loan Shark’s Ledger spirit artifact, you managed to obtain the collateral they put up.]
[Some of those were Innate Talents that were too low-grade, which you didn’t need.]
[One of them was an SS-rank Information Eye innate talent that could see the information of a target within sight, which you gave to Scarlet since you let her be the leader in charge of the exploration of station worlds during the past week.]
[Wanting to contribute, Morvane and Astraea would assist Scarlet while Jade was mostly assigned to choose the stations from the Train Pathways.]
[After all, you were busy assisting Old MacDonald and couldn’t put that much effort into station exploration.]
[However, you still assisted Jade from time to time in using the Loan Shark’s Ledger since your Hint Prompt (Gold) talent was needed to know how much you could squeeze from the Terran Train Conductors.]
[Because of that, you always manage to coerce them to place every valuable they had as collateral for their debts, including their innate talents and lifespans.]
[Due to some of them being forced to pay the collateral, you’ve also acquired their lifespan in the form of mortal lifespan crystals.]
[The problem with such items was that they’re based on their life level and power rank. Most of these Terran Train Conductors were at Bronze rank or lower. Due to that, using the lifespan crystal made from their lifespan would yield you less lifespan since their life level was lower than yours.]
[’It’s due to this reason that powerhouses would rarely harvest the life energy of mortals since the quality isn’t that good.’]
[’As an Arch Human, my life level is way above theirs.’]
