"Is your melon guaranteed to be ripe?"
"Of course! I've been working in logistics for two and a half years, do you think I'd sell you a bunch of greenhorns?!"
Inside the Black Tower Space Station, Zhou Xiao was silently communicating with a middle-aged man in the station's logistics module.
"Hmm... I'll take this melon. Just transport the rest of the supplies to the platform according to the order..."
Zhou Xiao handed the person the list he had compiled in advance on the train.
"Okay." The man took the order, glanced at it, and then casually asked:
"Are you from the Starry Sky Train? I don't think I've ever seen anyone with such an impressive appearance on the train before."
Most people in the logistics department know about the Star Train, since it replenishes supplies every time it stops at the space station.
...
"Yes, I just boarded the train not long ago. I'm currently a logistics staff member on the Starry Sky Train..."
Zhou Xiao answered calmly, glancing at the supplies in the logistics bay with his dark brown eyes, a hint of helplessness in his gaze.
...
Thanks for the invitation. I'm currently in the Starry Sky Railway World, just got off the train...
At first, Zhou Xiao didn't believe that time travel like in novels could happen in the real world, until he traveled to this Starry Sky Railway.
He vaguely remembered that it was a bright morning. He was squatting on the toilet watching the latest singing and dancing video of his beloved pigeon on Bilibili. Just as he was about to get up, he suddenly noticed a strong suction force coming from under the toilet... After that, he arrived in the world of Starry Sky Railway.
He knew something about the Starry Sky Railway world, but not much. Fortunately, after boarding the train, he learned more details, which gradually made him realize that this world seemed somewhat dangerous...
"Why did you pay for this melon separately? It would have been so much more convenient to pay together..." The middle-aged man interrupted Zhou Xiao's thoughts, as he handed Zhou Xiao a box containing the melon.
“This wasn’t part of the train’s procurement needs…it’s something I wanted to buy separately,” Zhou Xiao replied, snapping out of his reverie.
As a train logistics worker, he must have his own professional principles.
Beep—
Before the man could say anything more, an alarm suddenly sounded inside the space station, followed by an announcement.
"The space station is under attack by the antimatter army... All crew members, please proceed to the main control module for evacuation immediately..."
"Antimatter legions?!"
Upon hearing the name, the middle-aged man next to Zhou Xiao paused for a moment, and before Zhou Xiao could react, he hurriedly left the logistics cabin and fled to the upper cabin.
"Hey buddy, stick close to me..."
...
He knows how to run away.
Zhou Xiao watched as the man left those words, then vanished in the blink of an eye, his speed as if he were carrying a train...
But he was still too hasty.
Zhou Xiaohuan glanced at the supplies in the logistics compartment.
Why not stay in this logistics compartment and wait for rescue? The supplies here are plentiful...
Of course.
Zhou Xiao wouldn't choose to hide in the logistics cabin, after all, it wasn't very safe there either...
He checked the time, picked up the box containing items he had privately purchased on the space station, and opened the hatch from inside the logistics bay.
at the same time.
The Star Train also came to the space station to provide support at the request of Estella, the temporary stationmaster.
"Xiao Sanyue, Danheng, you two wait a moment..." Just as Sanyueqi and Danheng stepped off the platform, Himeko, a tall woman with red hair, called out to them.
"While supporting the space station, I also want to find Zhou Xiao. He's gone to the space station to resupply... I messaged him, but he hasn't replied..."
"Okay." March 7th replied and then entered the space station with Danheng through the platform.
Speaking of the new logistics staff member, Ji Zi was still a little worried. Although Zhou Xiao was capable and a great cook, he had one major problem...
...
Right now.
Zhou Xiao, who was being worried about by Ji Zi, was getting a little lost inside the space station.
Zhou Xiao, carrying the suitcase, looked at the three-way fork in the road and fell into deep thought.
I think I came from here?
It seems to have started from there...
Zhou Xiao considered himself to have a good sense of direction. As for occasionally getting lost, that was purely a problem with the architecture; either the passageways were interconnected, or the buildings were winding and circuitous, and there was no navigation system. He didn't have a map anchor point or anything like a protagonist who could teleport...
How can you blame him?
It should be this one...
After making his decision, Zhou Xiao chose the leftmost passage. He wound his way through the gates and used his temporary visitor access card to pass through another door, where he found himself at another two-way fork in the road.
"Don't the people working on the Black Tower space station ever get lost?" Zhou Xiao said, noting that the roads all look almost identical.
He had just finished complaining when a spatial fluctuation occurred behind him, and a sense of crisis seeped out from it, causing him to subconsciously dodge to the side.
A yellow light blade appeared in his field of vision. If he had been a second slower in dodging, the light blade would have surely pierced his head.
Antimatter... Legion.
Looking at the gray-purple antimatter legion soldiers before him, their heads burning with dark purple matter like flames, Zhou Xiao had seen the basic information of these soldiers in the think tank on the train.
Raiders...
That's the name.
The basic combat unit of the antimatter legion under the Destroyer Star God, driven by the instinct for destruction, possesses a strong desire to attack...
This was truly the first time Zhou Xiao had witnessed it in person.
Perhaps because he was in a relatively remote location on the space station, he didn't actually encounter any members of the antimatter legion along the way.
The raider, having failed in its sneak attack, swiftly stepped forward, its yellow light blades attached to its arm armor slashing towards Zhou Xiao's location.
The moment the raiders charged forward, Zhou Xiao drew his longsword from his waist with incredible speed.
A cold glint flashed across the raider's neck, and with the sound of the sword being sheathed, the raider's head fell to the ground with a "thud."
His movements were fluid and clean, so fast that it was impossible for anyone to see them clearly.
In the blink of an eye, a headless raider corpse appeared in the passage, along with a five-centimeter-deep cut on the metal wall of the opposite passage.
It doesn't seem as dangerous as I imagined.
Zhou Xiao glanced at the corpses of the raiders lying in the passage and thought to himself.
...
[You have completed today's daily practice and have earned three self-discipline points.]
The mechanical voice of the system reached Zhou Xiao's ears, which made him pause slightly.
Um...
Good.
It still needs real-world experience...
Zhou Xiao expressed his satisfaction. Previously, he usually sought out Dan Heng to resolve conflicts on the train, but that kind of sparring-style simulated combat was not very effective and the battles took a long time.
