Although the distance of 100,000 kilometers seemed vast and long, at the train's current speed of 150 km/h, it would only take a few days to travel, even driving non-stop day and night.

Although the journey might be a little boring.

But Bai Cheng was actually more concerned about whether she could acquire an internal combustion engine in this vast terrain.

If an opportunity was hidden here and they missed it, wouldn't they be stuck driving a steam train forever?

"Let's drive for a bit and see." Bai Cheng closed the train door and signaled Lan Xiaoyu to restart the journey.

The surrounding Sea of Clouds churned; the train was traveling entirely in the sky, and Bai Cheng didn't think there would be any resources here.

The best-case scenario was that some kind of change existed here that could alter the current terrain.

As for the resource problem, there was even less need to worry. As a leader, Bai Cheng was supported by the entire channel; at least fuel and food were completely taken care of.

Huang Yu prepared lunch, and everyone felt their bodies and minds relax.

Perhaps this terrain was the safest area they had ever passed through, at least during the day.

In the bedroom, Yu Nian was admiring herself in the mirror, holding new clothes traded for with infinite coins; Leng Ningxue was also standing by the window, staring blankly at the Sea of Clouds outside.

Bai Cheng, meanwhile, was resting on the throne, which at least allowed her to leech a wave of experience points.

Besides the three of them, Purple Iris was also in the room. She was very curious about the train's system and kept her eyes fixed on the screen.

Almost every hour, a notification would appear on the screen announcing that a leader had been killed, and this never stopped.

This notification was naturally visible to non-leaders as well. Seeing top leaders from channel after channel being hunted down so easily, panic began to spread within almost every channel.

Ordinary Survivors didn't understand the situation, but they knew the journey ahead was becoming increasingly dangerous.

Perhaps becoming a Settler back then was the correct choice.

But soon, these Survivors realized they were wrong.

After their channel's leader was killed, the corresponding Stronghold Cities established behind them were simultaneously being attacked by an unknown force.

The goal of those so-called Survivors from the Special Channel was not to annex the Survivors of the ordinary channels, but rather pure, naked slaughter.

The Stronghold Cities were destroyed, and tens of thousands of Settlers within the cities were slaughtered without exception. Blood dyed the earth, and a large number of Survivors perished in less than a day.

As for the remaining Survivors, everyone was terrified, able only to place their last hope in their channel's leader, praying that they would not die.

However, it was precisely the appearance of the Special Channel that made the ordinary Survivors within these channels more cohesive.

It was simple to ensure their leader wasn't killed: they had to make him stronger!

Perhaps he, being deep within the world, had no means, but everyone else, effectively the leader's subjects and located at the world's edge, could still try their best to lend a helping hand!

Therefore, in the following period, even though all the leaders were anxious about being hunted and neglected the management of their Stronghold Cities, the Settlers within the cities still frantically supplied them with resources.

Moreover, the level of supply this time far exceeded the previous amount, nearly exhausting the entire channel's resources.

This could only lead to one result: the strength of the leaders in various channels would surge dramatically in a short period.

Of course, Bai Cheng and the others, who were located in the distant sky, were currently unaware of all this.

Because they had never taken the Survivors of those Special Channels seriously.

Oddly enough, apart from the three people they met in Cloud Sea Solitary City, they hadn't encountered any so-called pursuit under the influence of the event.

This made Bai Cheng even less concerned.

But while she wasn't concerned, the internal Settlers of Channel #2 who learned the news were already in chaos, filled with panic.

Seeing that Bai Cheng had been unreachable since leaving the Stronghold City, as if she had completely abandoned them.

Everyone had already informed Liu San, the only person they could contact who held some influence within Channel #2.

Liu San naturally knew the whole situation, and after receiving everyone's request, he immediately contacted Bai Cheng.

"Xiao Cheng, Liu San said he is currently in the Heavenly Sea of Clouds. I wonder if he could meet you?"

In the evening, Yu Nian, upon receiving the message, immediately found Bai Cheng, who was lying on the top floor chatting with Lvdou.

The latter rested her head on her hands, slightly sat up, and glanced back, a hint of confusion in her eyes: "Let him come, but can they change the train's trajectory?"

Yu Nian wasn't sure either. She shook her head and said, "Liu San and the others must have skipped the desert and arrived here earlier than us. I didn't ask, though; he only said we could meet at night."

Bai Cheng looked thoughtful upon hearing ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) this: "Then it seems to be related to Silent Night?"

Having arrived a few days earlier, Liu San and the others had clearly already experienced Silent Night and understood some of the rules here.

And subconsciously, they naturally assumed that Bai Cheng and the others were fully aware of this, so they offered no explanation.

However, Yu Nian couldn't be bothered to ask, as doing so might make people think she wasn't a "Big Boss."

After receiving Bai Cheng's affirmation, she immediately went to the cockpit to inform them. At the same time, the wheels rubbed against the rails, and the train began to slow down gradually.

"Hey, Lvdou, where was I just now?"

...Soon, the sky darkened, announcing the complete arrival of Silent Night.

Almost at the same moment, the surrounding snow-white clouds and mist, which stretched across the sky to the end of the world, abruptly turned black. Then, fierce winds suddenly rose, and the temperature plummeted.

Bai Cheng clearly saw that even with the protection of the Plating Technology, a layer of frost had formed on the train's edge armor.

She then saw the black mist quickly condense, forming massive clusters of black fog.

The black fog clusters constantly collided, and streaks of purple lightning began to tear through the night sky and flash continuously.

At the same time, the train's movement met with immense resistance. Instead of slicing through the Sea of Clouds like a blade as it did during the day, a fierce thunderstorm suddenly erupted the moment it touched a black fog cluster.

Bai Cheng also got up and returned to the cockpit.

Yu Nian and Leng Ningxue were both standing in front of the Detection Platform, checking the changes brought about by this Silent Night.

【Current Status: Thunder Magnetic Storm】

【Thunder Magnetic Storm: The rail generation system is affected by strong magnetic interference and can no longer generate tracks according to the predetermined route. The Train Conductor must manually confirm the path forward.】

【Note: Please do not deviate from the Station route casually, or the monsters hidden in the Sea of Clouds may discover your presence!】

Seeing this, the three exchanged glances, realizing something.

So we can actually move freely after Silent Night arrives!

As for the monsters, they were completely ignored by everyone.
