"It’s not that too much energy was consumed, it’s that the Hell Black Chrysanthemum released too much pure dark energy!"

Lin Xian turned his head to look at the almost opaque green energy filling the carriage, frowned slightly, and murmured, "So much, what’s going on."

He didn’t understand how, despite not dealing with any Abnormal Bodies, the Hell Black Chrysanthemum had absorbed so much dark energy. Lin Xian walked towards the back carriage, discovering that the dark energy grew even denser, and a thought immediately floated to his mind.

Absorbing too much dark energy might have side effects, it’s unsettling that so many people have fallen asleep.

But just as Lin Xian turned back to the No. 1 carriage, a light screen suddenly popped up in front of him.

[Non-mechanical energy has been converted, gaining 1000 Mechanical Source Points.]

"Indeed, the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube has converted Mechanical Source Points for me again..."

[Non-mechanical energy has been converted, gaining 1000 Mechanical Source Points.]

Walking another step, the light screen continued to pop up.

Lin Xian stopped in his tracks, discovering that the light screen of the Mechanical Heart at that moment seemed like delayed pop-up notifications, appearing one after another, directly stopping Lin Xian in his tracks.

[Non-mechanical energy has been converted, gaining 1000 Mechanical Source Points.]

3000...

4000...

As the light screen continued to pop up, Lin Xian watched wide-eyed as the experience level of his Mechanical Heart kept changing numbers, and the light screen kept appearing endlessly, like there was no stopping it.

5000...

7000...

10000...

[Non-mechanical energy has been converted, gaining 400 Mechanical Source Points.]

Until the last Mechanical Source Point popped up, Lin Xian suddenly discovered that his Mechanical Heart level had soared from the previous 22220, the damage version devoured from Dreadnought Level, straight to 39800!

points!

"What the hell? Did the Hell Black Chrysanthemum take the wrong medicine?"

At this moment, Lin Xian’s heart was shocked, and he quickly walked towards the back carriage.

In Carriage No. 2, KIKI had recovered and fell asleep on the information center chair. The monitoring screen displayed the situation outside various carriages, but the little girl showed no signs of fatigue or pain from mental overuse. Instead, she sprawled on the swivel chair, biting the stick of a lollipop.

Lin Xian went straight over and pulled the stick from KIKI’s mouth. The candy had melted completely, and he casually picked up KIKI and walked over to place her on the bed, where Sha Sha was also soundly asleep on the upper bunk.

Carriage No. 3, the scattered lab had been tidied up, Lin Xian opened the rest area, where Ding Junyi was ceremoniously sleeping. He quickly closed the door, Carriage No. 4, the separate rest area was for Xiao Yuan and Miao Lu, assistants to Director Ding, who were also in deep sleep.

In the following Carriage No. 5, Da Lou, Brother Huo, Ryuji, and Mo Xiaotian were all asleep. In Carriage No. 6’s restaurant, Luo Yang, Lv Chang, and Qian Deli were dozing off on the sofa, while dozens of people in Carriages No. 7 and No. 8 were sound asleep.

The whole train was sleeping!

The more Lin Xian looked, the more off things seemed. He quickly headed towards Carriage No. 10 at the back, simultaneously contacting Beifeng 09 via the communicator.

"Ryan, can you hear me?"

"Buzz... What’s wrong, Lin?" Fortunately, Ryan’s voice responded immediately.

"Everyone on the train is asleep. Isn’t that a bit odd?"

At this moment, in the command cabin of the Beifeng 09 nuclear submarine, Ryan, wearing headphones, stood at the center. Only a dozen submarine operators were quietly on standby around him; the other cabins were also filled with sleeping people. He immediately said,

"Don’t worry, Lin. Your train should have a Taboo Item similar to our dark energy copper ball, which is the side effect after absorbing too much dark energy, probably similar to oxygen intoxication. It’s not dangerous, but the benefits to everyone are significant."

Hearing Ryan’s words, Lin Xian paused at the door, ready to open the room of Monica in Carriage No. 9, and said,

"Will absorbing so much at once cause any harm to the body?"

Ryan replied, "From what I know, if it’s purified, then the problem isn’t significant. At least, it’s better than using cold dark reagents, no need for vegetable juice and sunbathing."

He then took a deep breath, "But I also think this is too much. Yet, we have no way of dispersing it, can’t just open the windows to release all this energy."

"Such a situation exists..."

Lin Xian was momentarily speechless, unsure whether the current scenario was good or bad. Summing up that he achieved nearly 20,000 Mechanical Source Points via the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube, this had been the most intense breakthrough for Lin Xian since acquiring the Mechanical Heart. Hence, it showed just how massive the dark energy intake had been for the other team members, no wonder they all slept like logs.

"Ryan." At this moment, Lin Xian’s gaze grew complicated as he asked, "We don’t seem to have dealt with any Abnormal Bodies, how did we capture so much dark energy?"

"Isn’t this simple?"

Ryan immediately responded, "The guy is hunting. Remember the initial plan I told you about?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xian frowned, "Did you score a haul?"

"During our submersion, along with the towed sonar," Ryan replied helplessly, "Actually, I wasn’t expecting much since escaping is priority, yet..."

"How much did you haul in?" Lin Xian asked.

"Level 4 Blood Essence, 98 pieces, Level 3 Blood Essence... 1295 pieces, several Level 2 ones."

Lin Xian was stunned upon hearing this, "What did you say?!"

"Lin, no need to be surprised, all thanks to you. These gains can be distributed by you," Ryan said leisurely, "Enough for all of you to undergo crystal grid cultivation evolution."

"Amazing." Lin Xian’s heart was shaken, not expecting Ryan, using the towed sonar, to accidentally reap considerable gains. This guy’s crazy approach of reaping benefits through Uniga 1 had truly succeeded.
