Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 230: Hypocritical People

The Human-Faced Scorpion broke free from the smoke.

Chen Ye directly pulled the Human-Faced Scorpion Carapace out from his backpack.

Both the Human-Faced Scorpion Carapace and the Human-Faced Scorpion's Face Skin used to be kept in the vehicle.

However, these two Wonder Materials were not very large in volume, so they could fit inside a backpack.

Especially the Human-Faced Scorpion's Face Skin, which was soft, thin, and had a texture just like human skin.

It could also be folded into a very small piece.

"Void Abyss Infuses Spirit, Transforms Turbid Breath, Bestow Form and Frame, Erode Moon's Shadow..."

Thick smoke billowed from the Carapace. As Chen Ye chanted the incantation, he gave it a gentle toss.

The Carapace continued to expand, firmly embedding itself onto the Human-Faced Scorpion's back.

He spread out the Human-Faced Scorpion's Face Skin and rapidly recited the incantation from his mouth.

Amidst the churning smoke, the Human-Faced Scorpion was successfully infused with spirit.

The Human-Faced Scorpion's Face Skin was also embedded onto the Human-Faced Scorpion's face, while the rest of its body remained a churning mass of thick smoke.

The Masked Man looked Chen Ye over, then examined the Human-Faced Scorpion before him.

That unpleasant voice spoke again, "Humans, how interesting! You can actually drag dead souls back to the mortal world! Hahaha... truly fascinating!"

Chen Ye didn't bother pondering what the Masked Man's words meant.

He directly ordered the Human-Faced Scorpion to attack.

The Human-Faced Scorpion's stinger trembled slightly before thrusting straight towards the Masked Man's face.

The expression on the Masked Man's face froze for an instant.

Could it be that the Human-Faced Scorpion's attack actually had an effect on him?

However, the look on Chen Ye's face did not relax.

Because he saw the Masked Man tilt his head slightly, and the forehead pierced by the scorpion's stinger showed not a single mark.

"A formidable technique!"

"Tsk tsk... however, Superhuman, I already told you, your attacks are useless against me!"

"Humans, such stubborn creatures!"

"Oh right, you people call this kind of behavior foolishness!"

"Isn't that right!"

"Heheh..."

"Time is running out, you know!"

"If you can't make a choice, I'll make it for you!"

"At that point, whether you die or he dies won't be up to you anymore!"

Without a second thought, Chen Ye pulled out that wildly thrashing tentacle.

The tentacle of the Eight-Limbed Human Face, even after all this time, could still maintain such vitality.

This was the final measure.

If this method didn't work.

Chen Ye would choose without hesitation to sacrifice others to save himself.

"I... I don't want to die!"

"Mr... Chen, you... you won't kill me, right?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

The cowardly man trembled as he asked.

"Shut up!"

Chen Ye raised his hand, and smoke coalesced into a hand blade, knocking the man unconscious.

Chen Ye sighed.

It seemed he had been influenced too deeply by Chu Che.

That guy was always whispering in his ear that there weren't many humans left, that they should kill as few as possible.

His nagging was comparable to Tang Sanzang.

Yet, when faced with a threat to his own life.

That guy would always make the choice without hesitation.

Like the "tail" in the convoy before.

That was something he tacitly allowed too!

What a hypocritical person!

Chen Ye began chanting the incantation again.

The Masked Man chuckled, the crescent moon smile on his mask seeming increasingly absurd.

Faint whispers even began to drift from the surroundings.

"Kill him, kill him and you can leave!"

"Choose, you must make a choice!"

"You were never a good person to begin with, were you?"

"What are you pretending to be righteous for?"

"It's just killing someone, is it really that hard?"

Chen Ye did not respond. A massive octopus struggled free from the churning smoke.

The octopus floated in the air, as leisurely and carefree as if it were in the ocean.

What was terrifying, however, was that the octopus's head bore eight faces.

Old age, middle age, youth, adolescence, childhood.

Each stage had one male and one female face.

It looked utterly horrifying.

Yet also somewhat stiff and rigid.

What Chen Ye was most adept at simulating was undoubtedly the Death God.

But in the current situation, the Death God was clearly not as useful as the Eight-Limbed Human Face.

The tentacle in his hand struggled even more violently after the Eight-Limbed Human Face simulation materialized.

Like a dog that had just smelled meat and bones.

It seemed desperate to break free from Chen Ye's control.

The incantation from Chen Ye's lips also grew faster and faster.

The tentacle instantly vaporized into countless plumes of smoky mist.

As Chen Ye uttered the final syllable.

The tentacle in his hand shot straight towards the simulated Eight-Limbed Human Face.

When the tentacle merged with the simulated smoky Eight-Limbed Human Face.

Chen Ye once again felt that uncomfortable sensation.

This time, the Masked Man finally showed some reaction.

"Superhuman, truly impressive. You can even retrieve such vermin!"

"Human, do you really think you can control it?"

"Hahahaha..."

"If you cooperate with it, you'll both be dragged into endless darkness, never to emerge again."

Ignoring the Masked Man's taunts.

Chen Ye stared intently at the Eight-Limbed Human Face and spoke rapidly, "I know you have consciousness. Let's skip the chatter!"

"Help me! Otherwise, you will never return again!"

Chen Ye spoke extremely fast.

After all, time was running out.

He believed the Eight-Limbed Human Face could understand.

The Eight-Limbed Human Face remained motionless.

Chen Ye had a feeling that if he couldn't achieve a breakthrough soon, he would die.

Die under the rules!

There was no other way, he had to sacrifice an ordinary life.

Chu Che, I don't want to either!

Chen Ye sighed inwardly.

He pulled out the Blasting Star, aiming it at the unconscious man.

Simultaneously, he began to disperse the simulation of the Eight-Limbed Human Face.

Chen Ye had made up his mind. Once he accumulated enough Slaughter Points, he would make the Eight-Limbed Human Face disappear, becoming part of the Monster Pickup Truck.

"Wait..."

Right at that moment, the old man's face among the Eight-Limbed Human Face suddenly spoke.

"Less talk, speak!"

The old man's face hurriedly said, "Swear, you swear! Swear to give me one hour of activity time every day from now on!"

"I'll help you!"

"Hurry up and swear!"

"Young man, I advise you to hurry, time is running out!"

Instantly, the other faces also awoke one after another, creating a chaotic uproar.

Swear?

This thing believes in that?

Without a moment's thought, Chen Ye immediately said, "I swear, as long as the Eight-Limbed Human Face helps me resolve the trouble before me, I will give it one hour every day!"

"If I break this vow, may I die a horrible death! Be pierced by ten thousand arrows! Be smashed to pieces! Have my bowels rot and my feet fester!!!"

Chen Ye's attitude was solemn, his expression grave.

There wasn't a trace of jest in his face or demeanor.

"Heheh... young man, I'll believe you this once..."

"Young man, if you dare deceive me, you will pay the price!"

"Uncle, you're the kindest, you definitely won't lie to us, right?"

The Eight-Limbed Human Face was the most treacherous and cunning;how could an Anomaly like it trust humans?

But the situation was stronger than the individual;it had no choice.

The original plan was to slowly gain Chen Ye's trust, then plan for the future.

Yet the current circumstances forced it to make such a foolish choice.

It didn't want to sink back into that empty, featureless darkness forever.

That was the feeling of death!

It was willing to pay any price to avoid sinking into death again!

It knew humans had something called integrity.

It used to scorn it, even considered it foolish.

But now, it had no choice but to believe in human integrity and promises.

Moreover, the person opposite swore such a vicious oath.

It had heard some humans truly believe in this!

A treacherous, cunning creature was actually placing its last hope on something it once mocked.

One had to admit, it was the ultimate irony.

As for Chen Ye...

He had no intention of keeping any oath, no matter what.

He was just waiting for the day his Slaughter Points were sufficient, and the Eight-Limbed Human Face would become part of the Monster Pickup Truck.

"Hurry up! Otherwise, the oath is void!"

Chen Ye urged.

"Heheh... our family keeps its word. Young man, watch closely!"

"Grandpa, Grandma, do your best!"

"Son, this time, watch your dad!"

"Mom will do her best too!"

"Little brother, stop making noise, or I'll hit you!"
