[Hearing your suggestion, Jade agreed, "That’s indeed a lot safer. Even if someone managed to use their spirit avatar abilities to kill your main body through your avatar, you’d still be able to use Passenger Safety Mechanism and resurrect inside the train."]
["If that ever happens, we can then choose to depart early before the Spirit Avatar Master who killed you catches up."]
[Scarlet didn’t refuse, and after listening to Jade’s reply, you used your multiplication ability to multiply yourself by two.]
[After you created an avatar of yourself, you controlled the avatar while opening the train door, letting the avatar step into the station world.]
[After the avatar left, you decisively closed the train carriage door and then sat on the living room’s couch, shifting most of your attention to controlling your avatar.]
[After you left the train, you walked around the interior of the abandoned warehouse to familiarize yourself with it.]
[There wasn’t anything special. Unfinished toys were haphazardly placed around messily, and the conveyor belts and machinery were rusted.]
[Seeing that you couldn’t obtain any information from them, you summoned your Absolute Compass, commanding, "Find me the Spirit Avatar Master called Toymaker."]
[With the magnetic needle of the compass pointing southwest, you opened the abandoned warehouse’s door and left.]
[Walking outside, you took out an ID Card from your system inventory, which was what the World Will had given for legal identification reasons.]
{Hint Prompt: Your ID Card, created by the World Will. It’s legit and will last until you leave the station world. While still in the station world, a corresponding record is retained in the station world that can withstand scrutiny.
If need be, there will also be people who’ll have the impression of knowing you, testifying to your existence.}
{Hint Prompt: The World Will has used world origin and certain world rules to ensure that you are more native than even most natives. You will be treated just like a native inhabitant of this station world, as the World Will had also used cognition modification to ensure that the necessary people won’t question your identity.}
[Reading the Hint Prompts, you couldn’t help but be surprised, ’Dang! The World Will sure treated this seriously.’]
[’Terrans might hate the World Will for bringing them to the Train Survival World, but that doesn’t change the fact that the World Will is impartial most of the time and won’t lay any traps for the Train Conductors.’]
[While you believed so, that didn’t stop you from using your Hint Prompt to check what it gave and determine if it had any traps or had been tampered with maliciously.]
[Who could blame you? The World Will in the Global Ocean Survival World had indirectly caused your death, so you dared not trust any of these World Wills.]
[Exercising caution when dealing with them was a must. Moreover, your possession of the Hint Prompt (Gold) talent made such actions even more needed.]
[Now that you have the means to verify if something was problematic or not, it would be a waste of resources not to use it for its intended purpose.]
[After you verified the authenticity of the ID Card, you stored it back inside your system inventory.]
[Even while using your avatar to walk the world, you can use your system inventory regardless, since it was connected to your soul and not a specific item attached to your body.]
[The only downside was that the Platinum-grade weapon you have, the Fists of Power, could only copy an inferior version.]
[The original item was still with your main body, and you chose not to bestow it to your avatar in fear of losing it.]
[After all, since your avatar didn’t have anything valuable with it, then it would be easier to discard. Even if it died, it won’t cause you any pain or losses.]
[Even the pain felt by your avatar would only be transmitted as informational pain. In other words, you’d receive feedback that your chest was pierced, but you wouldn’t feel the pain of it.]
[Looking at your compass, you used the skills Presence Concealment and Silent Steps, sprinting in Steel City.]
[’Why is this city even called Steel City? The architecture style of most buildings is still the same as the modern era, and it’s not filled with structures made from steel.’]
[Observing your surroundings, such a question popped up in your head.]
[’Anyway, I’ll know about this world more after interrogating Toymaker, so I’ll just focus on finding him.’]
[’To make it more foolproof, I should buff myself more.’]
[Having that thought in your mind, you used your multiplication ability to multiply the effectiveness of your Presence Concealment and Silent Steps by a thousand times.]
[With the improvement of its effect, even those at Gold rank wouldn’t be able to detect you as long as you don’t have the intent to harm and attack them.]
[Because of that, you didn’t have to worry about alerting any hidden Spirit Avatar Masters within the city.]
[As you multiplied your agility as well, you weaved through the crowd of people walking in the streets.]
[In this station world, it was currently 1:24 PM, which was the time you had seen displayed on a wall clock you had passed by.]
[The streets weren’t as deserted as they were at night, so while it was inconvenient for you, it wasn’t a major issue since you could still jump over bustling crowds.]
[After a few minutes of sprinting, with your inhuman speed, you soon arrived in front of an apartment.]
[It looked rundown and unpresentable, even located at the outer ring of the city, away from the bustling city center.]
[A rusted mailbox was in front. There was also laundry hanging outside and flickering hallway lights.]
[For a Spirit Avatar Master to be living in such dire conditions, you couldn’t help but feel something was amiss.]
[Although you had doubts, such doubts could easily be answered with just a Hint Prompt.]
{Hint Prompt: Oak Leaf Apartment, it has three floors and 15 units. It has really cheap rent, which makes it a gathering of criminals who wanted to find a temporary place to rest.}
{Hint Prompt: Toymaker lives here. Aside from him, those who lived here are three unfortunate poor families who didn’t know the danger of this place, as well as nine criminals and two more Spirit Avatar Masters.}
{Hint Prompt: Toymaker is currently sleeping and won’t be waking anytime soon. His unit is located on the third floor.}
[Receiving those Hint Prompts, you clicked your tongue in amusement, ’I am in luck. Not only is Toymaker defenseless, but there are also two other Spirit Avatar Masters here.’]
[’This might be an added risk, but it’s still within my tolerance limit. As long as I assassinate them, then an introduction and information about the Spirit Avatar Master circle would become obtainable.’]
[You might not have reliable methods of interrogation and torture, but you had already tested before on a Bloodsucker that using Hint Prompt multiple times on the same target would eventually reveal everything they know and have, even something useless as the color of their underwear.]
[You could also use it as a lie detector, which could even use false statements as a foundation to give hints that would reveal the truthful version.]
[With that in mind, you no longer hesitated. You sneaked into the third floor cautiously, not deactivating your stealth.]
[Even if Toymaker was asleep, that couldn’t be said for the two Spirit Avatar Masters. They might still be awake, or not in their unit at all.]
[Faced with such uncertainty, you shook your head, ’Nevermind, it’s still better to confirm it with Hint Prompt.’]
{Hint Prompt: Among the two Spirit Avatar Masters, one of them is currently fighting another Spirit Avatar Master seven kilometers away from here. The other is at a remote hotel, bringing back a college girl he had just kidnapped and is about to enjoy his prey.}
[Reading the hint prompt, you were at ease, ’The two Spirit Avatar Masters aren’t at home, Toymaker’s fate is undoubtedly sealed.’]
[You ignored the rest of the information as it was useless. No one could stop you from killing Toymaker and obtaining the information from him.]
[Since this was merely a simulation, you dared to do things here you wouldn’t normally do in the real world.]
[After arriving in front of the door of Toymaker’s unit, you used Ghostwalk, which was a skill you obtained from a ghost-related station.]
[It was the same station where you, Jade, and Scarlet obtained those one-time use exorcism artifacts.]
[Ghostwalk was mostly a movement-related skill, and it didn’t grant any means of attacking the intangible.]
[At most, it could allow someone to walk through walls and bypass physical objects, becoming intangible like a ghost.]
[It also doesn’t hide your presence or make you invisible. However, when paired with Presence Concealment and Silent Steps, it became very convenient for robbery and murder.]
[While in the state of Ghostwalk, you passed through the door and entered Toymaker’s home.]
[Inside, there were countless toys haphazardly placed. There were even life-sized toys like mascots.]
[However, looking at them, you find it eerie as they were in bad condition, with broken parts visible.]
[You didn’t hesitate to use the Hint Prompt on them.]
{Hint Prompt: Toy mascots stitched from countless broken toy parts that Toymaker collected from abandoned toy factories.
Using his Spirit Avatar called Cursed Doll, he killed children who were lured by the toys he created, stuffing their souls into these cursed Toy Mascots.}
