[Upon hearing Jade’s suggestion, you immediately took out the Station Ticket: Angels of Death from your system inventory. Afterwards, you used your Train Conductor Authority to activate it.]

[-Ding!]

{It has been detected that the Station Ticket: Angels of Death has been used!}

{The Zenith Train will now take a detour and head to the Angels of Death Station. It will arrive in approximately 3 minutes!}

[After receiving that notification from the world will, you waited with Jade and the others inside the train.]

[You and the others had actually completed the mandatory station for this day.]

[From what you had discovered using the hint prompt, you could use the Station Ticket regardless of whether you had experienced the mandatory station or not.]

[If the mandatory station wasn’t experienced yet, then the Station Ticket’s chosen station will be used to replace the mandatory station, preventing the Train Conductor from experiencing two station explorations in a day.]

[If it was used after the mandatory station was experienced, then, as evident from what you did now, you could allow the Zenith Train Crew to experience two station explorations in a day.]

[’Only newbie Train Conductors would dread the mandatory stations, and they’d want to avoid exploring stations as much as possible. However, veteran Train Conductors aren’t as naive and cowardly.’]

[’After all, for a veteran Train Conductor, a station is a miniature world they could take advantage of. Even if they couldn’t take advantage of it, then they could at least blend within it and get whatever resources they need.’]

[’A station was the training and resource ground for Train Conductors. If a train conductor dared not explore stations, then they failed as a Train Conductor. The fate of such train conductors would be the victims and corpses piled up below hostile veteran Train Conductors.’]

[It was due to that reason that you weren’t averse to stations and were even looking forward to entering a new one.]

[Of course, the biggest reason why you dared have such thoughts was due to possessing the Train Pathways train ability. Without it, then each mandatory station would be like opening a blind box.]

[Rather than just the danger of these stations, what most train conductors feared about the stations was the unknown about them. Except for those that possessed powerful information-type talents like Kyle’s SSS-rank Future Diary, most train conductors wouldn’t know if the next mandatory station would be their funeral.]

[Even Kyle’s SSS-rank Future Diary innate talent wasn’t enough on its own. The inability to choose a station meant that train conductors would have to rely on their luck to not be unlucky enough to arrive in a station with a danger rating of certain death.]

[’No wonder not every Train Conductor could become a Crystal rank Train Conductor, let alone break past that and become a Mythril rank Train Conductor.’]

[’Even Kyle had encountered certain death stations before. It was only due to his girlfriend’s SSS-rank Hint Inquiry innate talent that he managed to find a way to survive in them.’]

[From what you had discovered, it was already good enough for a train conductor to reach Platinum rank. Those who had reached Platinum rank could already proclaim themselves as veteran Train Conductors.]

[After all, they were either really talented and cunning, or they possessed great luck.]

[In Kyle’s case, his luck was average, and so he had to rely on his innate talent and his girlfriend’s just to survive in the train station worlds.]

[Because of that, it was mostly those Train Crews with the Train Pathways train ability that could reach Crystal rank and above.]

[As long as their luck wasn’t that bad, then it was unlikely for them to encounter station choices that all had a danger rating of certain death.]

[Without that train ability, even you wouldn’t have been this fast in becoming an Initial Crystal rank Train Conductor.]

[It was way too convenient being able to choose what station you’d have, allowing you to plan your development path and focus on mandatory stations that would serve your plan.]

[While you had such thoughts, a few minutes had passed, and you and the rest of the train crew soon heard a notification sound in your mind.]

[-Ding!]

{The train has arrived at Station: Angels of Death!}

{Dwell Time: 4 days and 6 hours}

{Early Departure Time: 20 minutes}

[From the train windows, you, Jade, and Scarlet saw the train stop inside a train station, as weird as it might sound.]

[Most of the time, the train would arrive at random locations.]

[Whether it was indoors or outdoors, it would arrive there, and the train’s arrival location would mostly be random, which was why you didn’t meet other veteran Train Conductors in the Millennium Vampire war Station.]

[Only in truly collaborative multiplayer-type stations that didn’t have any quest or objective related to competition would the arrival location of all trains be the same.]

[In this case, the Angels of Death Station was a competitive multiplayer-type station. There weren’t any quests, but it was indeed a multiplayer-type station.]

[You had figured that out due to the information you’ve gathered from the veteran Train Conductors. Not only that, you had used your Hint Prompt talent on the Station Ticket: Angels of Death.]

[Looking at the scenery outside the train windows, Jade couldn’t help but exclaim, "Wow! Darling, look! Our train finally stopped at a proper location!"]

[Recalling the times the train arrived in the middle of a forest, in an abandoned area, or even inside the hall of a vampire princess’s castle, the train station made Jade feel like you both finally became proper Train Conductors.]

[Before you could reply to Jade, you immediately detected something appearing outside the train station, which looked to be a note made out of paper.]

[You didn’t step out immediately and instead, you used your Hint Prompt talent to determine what the note was.]

{Hint Prompt: A Peak Crystal-rank Angel of Death has noticed the arrival of your Train Crew. He didn’t mean any hostility, merely handing your Train Crew a note filled with the rules you must follow to not be targeted by the Angels of Death in the station.]
