"Understood, this is not urgent for now, just do it for free, then charge when there are more people later."

"Got it."

After Mr. Li left, Chen Mang stretched comfortably, washed up, and prepared to go to bed.

He hadn't slept for a long time.

Had been pulling an all-nighter since last night till now.

From the 50 mining sites, he prioritized mining iron ores. At this moment, ten of those iron mines were almost depleted; a half-day more and they would be completely mined out. By then, he could upgrade both the armor and the train first.

There's enough space.

Plenty of mines.

Capable of accommodating a sufficient number of residents mining simultaneously, which naturally boosts efficiency.

"Ai."

"I'm here."

"Tonight I'm going to rest well. No need to create any dreams."

"Roger that."

Fell asleep quickly.

Chen Mang soon fell into a blurry dream. Some people naturally don't dream much, while others dream almost every night. He wasn't certain what determined this.

But he dreamed again tonight.

And not just one dream, but a series of dreams.

Perhaps due to having been mining in dreams for the past few days.

Tonight.

He dreamed of mining again, but this time it wasn't Level 10 Ore, it was Level 9 Ore, and he was mining vigorously in his dream with a pickaxe.

...

Daylight came.

Chen Mang woke up, and because he was overly exhausted, it was already midday by the time he woke up.

"Damn... this is crazy."

Slowly opening his eyes, feeling the ache in his waist and back, Chen Mang angrily moved his completely powerless and sore arms. Even though there was no dream manufacturing last night, he still ended up dreaming about mining.

Can't they stop mining?

Is mining this exhausting?

He felt like he had been assaulted, his whole body was sore and weak, unable to muster any strength.

"Ai, you confirm you didn't use dream manufacturing last night."

"Train Captain, I cannot disobey any of your commands."

"Sigh."

Washing up, Chen Mang lit a cigarette and sat on a chair checking last night's Train Log. In fact, the Fixed Star was parked in this space all night, there were no monsters in this space, so naturally, there wasn't much information in the Train Log.

But he still subconsciously looked through it to check on the operation of different parts.

This had become his habit.

Without checking in the morning, it felt like something was missing.

But just then—

His peripheral vision suddenly caught the "Dream Stone" on the bedside flickering mildly.

"..."

Chen Mang's mouth slightly opened, a hint of incredulity flashed in his eyes, his breathing gradually quickened, could it be... could it be... could it be that?

He hadn't brought anything back from a dream in a long time.

He almost forgot about this thing.

After all, it was a small probability event, couldn't rely on it too much.

Didn't expect it to light up today.

But he vaguely remembered last night was not just about mining, there were other dreams, it's just that he already forgot much of them, dreams are like this somehow, once awake, they fade especially quickly.

Taking a deep breath, somewhat nervously, he approached the single bed and placed his hand on the "Dream Stone," and a Teleportation Gate appeared beside him.

He reached in.

Took out a stalactite-like existence, translucent, appearing quite splendid under the light.

At the same time—

The capacity of the "Dream Stone" was rapidly decreasing, plunging from 98% to 3%.

This stone turned out to be, Level 9 Iron Ore!

Chen Mang's ears visibly turned red as he looked at the Level 9 Iron Ore in his hand, unable to restrain his excitement as he vigorously punched the air: "Awesome!"

"Damn it..."

"All my hard work over these tough days paid off, almost cost me half my life!"

A Level 9 Iron Ore.

Worth 100 million units of iron ore.

Such a little stalactite, placed in the white area, could absolutely spark an all-out war. Any white train that obtained this Level 9 Iron Ore would directly take off!

"This is great!"

"So great!"

Chen Mang, feeling a bit exhilarated and satisfied, sat back in his chair, toying with the iron ore in his hand, which looked far more appealing than other iron ores, completely on a different level.

It equaled the total content of ten Level 4 Iron Mines.

At this moment, that batch of iron ore had also been fully mined, and the residents were carrying fridges, transporting the iron ore to storage car number 3.

"Perfect."

...

Chen Mang looked at the "Dream Stone" location on the train control panel, the progress now at 14%, indicating a second new dream stone in manufacturing. It would take about a month to reach 100% progress and acquire another dream stone.

But...

This speed is really slow, after getting a taste of it, now he couldn't sleep without a dream stone at night.

The dream stone on his bedside was down to 3% progress, and it would soon be depleted.

He mused without speaking.

Manufacturing "Dream Stones" is a feature all Level 12 trains have, while "Dream Manufacturing" is a feature all Level 13 trains have, and his Fixed Star is now a Level 13 train.

The combined effect of these two functions is the ability to create dreams.

The entertainment effect and spiritual power enhancement each account for half.

The dreams manufactured through "Dream Manufacturing" can provide users with effective spiritual power in the dream.

The effect isn't very significant.

At least he rarely heard anyone mention "Dream Stone" in the Train Radio, suggesting that this thing is somewhat useless to most people, so he could... acquire as many as possible!
