Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse Chapter 54

The survivors didn't understand why they had to leave immediately when they were told there were still forty minutes left.

But no one objected to Chu Che's decision.

Even Chen Ye himself had no doubts about Chu Che's decision.

Forcing open a path through the car crash site, the convoy quickly departed from this large-scale accident scene.

Many people looked back reluctantly at the receding car crash site.

Chen Ye wasn't the only one who wanted to get a vehicle.

Other survivors had the same idea.

The harsh sunlight made the perceived temperature reach over forty degrees Celsius, and the ground temperature was undoubtedly even higher.

When Chen Ye sat back in his vehicle, he discovered the soles of his shoes had been burned off.

This was the apocalypse - finding another pair of shoes wouldn't be easy.

Even the wind blowing against him felt scorching hot.

Sweat evaporated before it could slide down to his chin, leaving only a patch of white salt crystals stuck to his temples.

Just from getting out of the vehicle for that short while, his exposed skin had already turned red from the heat.

The only consolation was that the vehicle canopy could still block some sunlight.

Allowing Chen Ye to enjoy some brief shade.

The sunglasses he found from that chopped pepper fish head car blocked much of the glaring sunlight.

If not for the convoy getting further and further ahead, Chen Ye would have felt much better.

After loading massive amounts of supplies and four huge tires, Chen Ye's tricycle had slowed to an absolute crawl.

And the tricycle was still towing a chopped pepper fish head car behind it.

Yes, that very chopped pepper fish head car parked by the roadside.

Chen Ye simply couldn't accept leaving it behind, so he used a rope to tow the chopped pepper fish head car.

Planning to take this chopped pepper fish head car with him.

This car had the highest level of completeness - if he could modify it with his tricycle.

Then get a solar charging panel for upgrades.

Maybe his tricycle could become a hybrid gasoline-electric system.

Then even without gasoline in the future, he wouldn't need to worry about range issues.

Fortunately, the car wasn't too heavy, otherwise no matter how unwilling Chen Ye felt, he probably wouldn't have been able to tow it.

Before, this tricycle was like a small horse pulling a big cart.

Now it was like a small horse pulling a tank.

The throttle was already twisted to the maximum, but the speed still wouldn't increase, barely matching someone riding a bicycle.

"Sis, look at Chen Ye - he's just like the snake trying to swallow an elephant out of greed."

"His tricycle is completely loaded, of course it can't move fast."

"Doesn't he know to throw some things away? If anomalies catch up to him..."

Zhou Xiaoxiao curled her lips, seeming quite disdainful of Chen Ye's foolish approach.

For some reason, ever since Longevity Village, Zhou Xiaoxiao's perception of Chen Ye had changed.

After experiencing the previous incident.

Zhou Xiaoxiao clearly understood that ordinary people had little chance of surviving in the apocalypse.

They might die tomorrow during migration.

Or starve to death the day after when supplies run out.

Surviving until now wasn't because the sisters were capable, but because they were lucky.

Therefore, Zhou Xiaoxiao wanted to repair her relationship with Chen Ye and seek some protection.

But she simply couldn't swallow her pride to ingratiate herself with others.

Before the apocalypse, she was like the moon surrounded by stars in the entertainment industry, highly anticipated even before her debut.

For someone with such a background, changing their mindset.

Forget a few months.

Some people could never accept change in their entire lives.

Every time she saw Chen Ye, Zhou Xiaoxiao couldn't help but pay attention to him.

But every time she made eye contact with Chen Ye, she couldn't help but look away, feeling panicked inside.

She knew very clearly that a man like Chen Ye would truly likely use her as a human shield if real danger arose.

Like back in Longevity Village.

Zhou Xiaoxiao had personally witnessed Chen Ye using that old woman as a scapegoat without any guilt.

As for why Zhou Xiaoxiao focused on Chen Ye instead of seeking other Sequence Superpowers users.

Compared to other Sequence Superpowers users, Chen Ye was undoubtedly the best choice.

Because only Chen Ye was alone.

Like Captain Chu, or Iron Lion or Nana - these people already had their established circles.

It would be difficult for Zhou Xiaoxiao to integrate into them.

"Xiaoxiao, I've noticed you've been paying a lot of attention to Chen Ye lately, you wouldn't be..."

"Sis, what nonsense are you talking about! I just want to repair my relationship with him! I simply want to use him. It's not as dirty as you think!"

"You... use him? Come on, Xiaoxiao, be careful playing with fire."

"I won't get burned!"

"Sis, how about we give him a ride? His tricycle doesn't have enough power and can barely move anymore."

Zhou Lan glanced at the rearview mirror.

Chen Ye's vehicle was indeed getting slower and slower.

About to be left far behind by the convoy.

Yet Chen Ye didn't seem panicked at all, even taking the time to light a cigarette.

Zhou Lan thought to herself: This man, I really don't know what to say about him, actually having the mood to smoke at a time like this.

But just then, the smoke around the man grew thicker and thicker.

Zhou Lan's eyes widened.

Zhou Xiaoxiao beside her was also shocked speechless.

"Sis, what... what is he doing?"

The smoke churned continuously, as if something was about to emerge from within.

"This is..."

A horse composed of smoke galloped out.

Both sisters' eyes bulged wide.

"Sis... this is..."

"Sequence Superpowers!"

This smoke-formed horse looked somewhat stiff, even a bit... distorted in some places!

Zhou Lan felt this smoke horse was different from what she'd seen on film sets before.

But she still felt utterly shocked inside.

While Chen Ye felt quite satisfied.

After all, he had only seen horses on television, and only seen them at tourist spots in real life.

Simulating to this degree was already quite an achievement.

Two smoke-formed ropes extended and tied to the tricycle's frame.

The smoke-mimicked horse raised its hooves and began galloping wildly.

The distance between the tricycle and the convoy visibly closed.

In the off-road vehicle ahead, the long-legged girl Nana also witnessed this scene, her eyes revealing a playful glint.

"Interesting, the Smoke Apostle Sequence can be used like this too!"

On the yellow school bus, the listless Big Fool Iron Lion also saw this scene and said in a muffled voice: "Yezi, really impressive!"

After saying this, the big fool collapsed and immediately fell into deep sleep.

Earlier when extracting this vehicle from the sand, Iron Lion had also used his transformation ability.

Every time he used his transformation ability, Iron Lion needed sleep to recover.

In Chu Che's eyes, Chen Ye's behavior was wasteful.

In Captain Chu's view, Sequence Superpowers abilities were extremely precious and shouldn't be used for anything other than combat.

Fortunately, Chen Ye only used the ability for about ten minutes before stopping the smoke-mimicked horse from pulling the vehicle.

This kind of activity was simply too draining.

In just over ten minutes, Chen Ye already felt dizzy and lightheaded.

When the temperature began to drop.

When the sunset dyed the desert golden, the convoy finally decided to stop and set up camp.

Migrating at night wasn't a good idea.

The blood moon appeared in the sky again.

Only then did Chen Ye's tricycle slowly arrive.

He had used the smoke mimicry ability twice along the way, yet even so, Chen Ye had been left far behind by the convoy.

Even that low-speed electric vehicle was much faster than Chen Ye.

At least that low-speed electric vehicle wasn't carrying so many supplies.

But when Chen Ye saw his gains from this trip, he still felt completely satisfied.

Next, he would use his currently limited Slaughter Points to upgrade his vehicle.

After upgrading, he wouldn't need to worry about vehicle issues for some time to come.

He could focus on upgrading his own strength or weapons.

Until now, Chen Ye still couldn't forget about the five thousand Slaughter Points needed to upgrade a Wonder.
