{Hunter’s Instinct (Late Gold-grade Skill Scroll): A high-tier combat perception skill imbued with the primal awareness of an apex predator. Upon learning this skill, the user gains enhanced sensory acuity, instinctive threat analysis, and predictive combat intuition, allowing them to react to danger before conscious thought forms.
Effect 1: Greatly enhances perception, allowing the user to detect hostile intent, movement disturbances, killing intent, and concealed threats within an 80-meter radius.
Effect 2: Instinctively identifies weak points, openings, and vulnerabilities in enemies, increasing attack accuracy and critical strike efficiency.
Effect 3: Dramatically improves reaction speed and evasive capability, enabling near-automatic dodging, counterattacks, and defensive maneuvers in combat.
Effect 4: Provides predictive movement intuition, allowing the user to anticipate enemy actions, escape routes, and ambush attempts based on subtle environmental and behavioral cues.
Effect 5: Temporarily boosts combat performance when facing stronger opponents or life-threatening danger, enhancing physical coordination, focus, and decision-making efficiency.
Limit: The instinctive predictions are based on perception and experience; unpredictable abilities or overwhelming power differences may reduce effectiveness.
Cooldown: Passive skill; constant effect while active. Prolonged high-intensity combat may accelerate stamina and mental fatigue depending on the user’s Physique and Spirit attributes.}
{Huntsman Vigil Turret (Peak Gold-grade Train Module Blueprint): A fairy-tale themed autonomous turret inspired by the legend of the girl in the red hood. Mounted on the roof of a train carriage, this turret resembles an ornate woodland watchtower fused with mechanical weaponry, decorated with crimson engravings and silver filigree patterns.
Once installed, the turret will automatically identify hostile entities and fire condensed kinetic or energy projectiles generated from its internal core, eliminating the need for external ammunition. Its targeting system possesses uncanny precision, as if guided by a hunter’s instinct, allowing it to strike distant or fast-moving enemies even while the train is in motion.
Instead of external ammunition, the turret uses energy gathered from the surroundings. If the energy consumed is greater than the gathering rate, it will use up train fuel alongside it.
Moreover, the turret rotates freely with full coverage around the train and remains stable regardless of speed or terrain conditions.
Due to the Huntsman’s obsession, the projectiles shot by this turret will be absolutely accurate in its next shot if it misses on the 2nd shot on the same target. Hence, the 3rd shot will be shot with 100% accuracy if it’s on the same target.}
{Materials Required: Enchanted Crimson Alloy x50, Hardened Composite Plate x40, Precision Gear Assembly x20, Advanced Servo Motor x15, High-Density Barrel x8, Autonomous Control Core x2, Large Energy Core x1, Gold-grade Enhancement Crystal x2, and Fairy Tale Imprint x1}
[Under the expense of Jade having to drain all her energy to exchange for either blueprint materials or a copy of the Hunter’s Instinct skill scroll, it took several hours.]
[But finally, you, Jade, and Scarlet each used a Hunter’s Instinct skill scroll, further improving your practical combat power.]
[Not only that, the train modules, Mythrail Velocity Wheels, and Huntsman’s Vigil Turret, were successfully built!]
[So far, while the improvement of train speed brought by Mythrail Velocity Wheels wasn’t relevant yet, the Huntsman Vigil Turret was undoubtedly what Zenith needed the most.]
["With the addition of a turret that can even attack automatically, we won’t have to worry about anyone attacking our train while we’re away."]
[Hearing your words, Jade added, "We also have the Train Armor Plating and Advanced Energy Forcefield modules, so with both offense and defense, it will take a Peak Gold rank monster to destroy our train."]
["Our only problem is train fuel capacity now, since it should be in abundance, especially when the modified carriages and even the turret now take a lot of energy to use."]
[Scarlet nodded, "It’s best if we can get a module that increases train fuel capacity and reduces train fuel cost when powering these many modules."]
[Hearing Jade and Scarlet’s words, you nodded in agreement and checked the item description of the 4th item that you found just as useful from the loot of those 3 Golden Chests.]
{Superior Item Space Crystal (Initial Gold): Increases the item inventory of Train Conductors by 100 more slots.
Allows non-Train Conductors to awaken the item inventory, starting with 100 slots.
The item inventory slots increased using this crystal have a maximum limit of 10,000 slots.}
[It might not be useful for you, but it was undoubtedly so for Jade and Scarlet.]
[Not only will Jade no longer have to rely on you for item storage, but Scarlet could also awaken the item inventory despite not possessing the Train Conductor Authority, allowing you to kill two birds with one stone.]
[And with Jade’s usage of her Equivalent Exchange talent, it will just be a matter of time for them to each have 10,000 item inventory slots, which would solve most item storage problems.]
[And so, with Jade’s hard work of paying the conversion fee and you creating Mystic Apples as her exchange item, it only took under an hour for them to possess such a vast amount of item inventory space.]
[It would have taken a lot longer, but you had abused your Multiplication power to increase Jade’s energy recovery rate and remaining energy.]
[With that problem solved, you asked Jade, "It’s already nighttime, and our next station will be around tomorrow. I need your effort again to upgrade the Train."]
[Jade nodded, "No worries, most of the items needed for upgrading the train to Level 11 have already been collected, aside from the rarer ones."]
[Since most of the items were already available, it only took her a few minutes to exchange for the materials that you lacked.]
