Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse Chapter 70

When Chen Ye held her by the neck and used her as a shield, Zhou Xiaoxiao saw that enormous human face.

The massive human face revealed an eerie smile, its mouth corners stretching exaggeratedly wide.

Under Zhou Xiaoxiao's terrified gaze.

That enormous mouth split open grotesquely, revealing layer upon layer of teeth inside.

Not the sharp fangs of beasts, but human-like molars and flat teeth, arranged in multiple layers within that huge mouth.

Zhou Xiaoxiao felt as if her heart was being tightly gripped by a giant hand.

Ever since she was old enough to understand things, Zhou Xiaoxiao knew she had a superstar sister.

Therefore, Zhou Xiaoxiao also aspired to become a big star like her sister.

With her outstanding appearance, Zhou Xiaoxiao had already gained countless attention even before her official debut.

Zhou Xiaoxiao had already transcended the ordinary person's realm.

On film sets, everyone she met spoke to her kindly and politely.

At home, her parents doted on her excessively, and even her superstar sister offered mostly encouragement.

The foul aspects of the entertainment industry never had a chance to approach this future star.

Even Zhou Xiaoxiao herself believed she was destined to become a top-tier celebrity in the domestic entertainment industry.

But then, in such circumstances, the apocalypse arrived.

It came completely unexpectedly.

Zhou Xiaoxiao and Zhou Lan, who were filming on set at the time, were scared half to death, but fortunately managed to escape from the production crew.

Until they joined the convoy.

Every time they went out to gather supplies, the sisters would actively participate, which allowed them to maintain a relatively comfortable life within the convoy.

At least preserving basic dignity.

But things couldn't always go smoothly.

In this apocalyptic world, one might die at any supply point someday, or perish at the hands of other people or Anomalies.

Therefore, when Zhou Lan saw that Chen Ye had awakened Sequence Superpowers, she wanted to align herself with Chen Ye.

At the very least, maintain a good relationship.

But Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't agree with her sister's decision.

Hence the earlier incident where she took back the gasoline her sister had given to Chen Ye.

Zhou Xiaoxiao believed that no matter when, relying on oneself was the only true way.

And she had consistently acted according to this belief.

Even towards Sequence Superpower users like Chen Ye, Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't feel she needed to curry favor with them, or even have any contact with them.

Because she was Zhou Xiaoxiao.

Just like back on film sets, Zhou Xiaoxiao could even afford to ignore the attitudes of directors and producers.

But now they were in the apocalypse.

Zhou Xiaoxiao hadn't adjusted her mindset accordingly.

In the apocalypse, unless you're powerful enough.

Otherwise, these qualities of yours become the roots of your demise.

Seeing herself about to be chewed up and swallowed by this large mouth full of teeth.

Zhou Xiaoxiao felt warmth and wetness spread in her lower body, while snot and tears streamed freely down her face, her delicate features quickly becoming a messy sight.

Facing imminent death, Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't know whether she felt more regret or more fear.

"Thump!"

A heavy, muffled sound of impact against flesh.

Zhou Xiaoxiao saw the enormous human face before her show an expression of pain, the entire face shifting position.

When Zhou Xiaoxiao's hands touched the sandy ground, her whole body had already collapsed weakly, without any strength left.

"Miss Zhou, run quickly!"

Zhou Xiaoxiao recognized this young man - it was Xiao Fu from the school bus, a somewhat naive university student.

Xiao Fu dragged the completely limp Zhou Xiaoxiao frantically backward.

Xu Lina had also snapped out of her daze by now. Though fear still lingered in her eyes, she hesitated for a moment before coming over to help drag Zhou Xiaoxiao and Xiao Fu as they ran into the distance.

Zhou Xiaoxiao glanced back, and when she saw what the monster actually looked like, the little courage she had regained instantly turned into terror.

"Be careful! This... Anomaly... is tough to deal with!"

Iron Lion said in his deep, muffled voice.

The Big Fool had used his superpower again, transforming into a three-meter-tall Burly Man.

It was his punch that had just sent the Human-Faced Scorpion flying.

Otherwise, Zhou Xiaoxiao probably wouldn't have survived.

Right now, the Big Fool was shaking his hand, looking like he was in considerable pain.

Chen Ye continuously retreated, putting distance between himself and the Anomaly before him.

Only now did Chen Ye get a clear look at the Anomaly.

It was an incredibly massive scorpion, its entire body comparable in size to a large truck.

What made it even more terrifying was that the scorpion's head featured a gigantic human face.

The pained expression on this human face was almost indistinguishable from that of an ordinary person.

Then there were the enormous pincers and the highly raised black stinger tail, all indicating that this Human-Faced Scorpion wouldn't be easy to deal with.

Chen Ye exhaled a thick cloud of Smoke Breath, forming a small smoke barrier within three meters around him, his eyes alert.

His right hand held the willow branch while the Blood Resentment Machete circled in his grip.

"Captain, can you handle this or not?"

Aren't you supposed to be the Pathfinder?

How could you let an Anomaly catch up to us?

Are you even competent as captain?

Even the Long-Legged Girl looked distrustful: "Captain, how can you mess up something this basic?"

Her tone and attitude made it seem like Chu Che was her subordinate who could be scolded at will.

In front of so many survivors, the Long-Legged Girl was even harsher than Chen Ye, showing no respect for the captain's authority.

Chu Che felt blood rushing to his head in anger, but he knew this wasn't the time to settle scores with these two.

Gritting his teeth, he said bitterly: "I don't know either, maybe Anomalies can also grow stronger!"

"It's still daytime now, this Anomaly's power should be somewhat suppressed. You'd better deal with it before the Blood Moon rises, otherwise..."

"We're all going to die!"

The Pathfinder Sequence was extremely sensitive to Anomaly auras.

Chu Che could sense that this Anomaly's power was indeed somewhat suppressed during daytime.

Otherwise, once the Blood Moon rose...

The surrounding survivors watching the scene were in even worse shape.

Some had wet themselves for the second time, their bodies reeking of urine.

Others stared blankly, kneeling not far away and continuously kowtowing to the Human-Faced Scorpion while muttering incoherently.

A bitter smile touched Chen Ye's lips.

Damn it...

Do we really have to confront this Anomaly head-on?

I only awakened a few days ago.

"Looks like we have no choice but to fight for our lives this time!"

The Long-Legged Girl drew the long sword from her waist, her expression becoming unprecedentedly serious.

Iron Lion knocked his iron fists together, a trace of madness curling at his lips.

"Let me test this monster's strength, you two look for opportunities!"

Whenever battle approached, this iron-headed fool's other personality emerged again.

It was as if Iron Lion had become a completely different person.

After finishing a cigarette, Chen Ye took out his lighter and lit another one.

"Goddamn it, I only awakened a few days ago, and now I have to fight this kind of monster?"

He exhaled a thick cloud of Smoke Breath, the smoke continuously churning and twisting as if possessing a spirit of its own, swirling around to protect him. The surrounding smoke grew increasingly dense.

The area also continuously expanded until Chen Ye's figure was gradually engulfed within it.

This would be his first battle after awakening Sequence Superpowers.

Why did he feel a little anticipation?

The Blood Resentment Machete in his hand seemed to tremble slightly.

That's right, one of the Blood Resentment Machete's characteristics was slaughtering Anomalies to absorb resentment energy, which could cause qualitative changes in the machete. He wondered if that was true.
