Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse - Chapter 94: Escape from Shekou
Chen Ye not only crashed into the old man's low-speed electric vehicle without apologizing, but also made him help flip his overturned vehicle back over.
He even made the old man help push his car.
Despite being such a "good person" to Chen Ye, when danger struck, Chen Ye unceremoniously threw the old man aside without hesitation.
The old man never dreamed in his wildest nightmares that Chen Ye could be so shameless, so cold-blooded and heartless.
Watching as he was about to be devoured by those layers of sharp teeth.
The old man felt unwilling, furious...
His body underwent drastic changes, his back rapidly bulging with a huge lump, his clothes tearing apart as a pale head emerged from it.
When Chen Ye saw this head through the rearview mirror, his expression also changed slightly.
This was the Hunchbacked Old Puppet!
That anomaly encountered in Longevity Village—who would have thought this anomaly had been hiding within the convoy all along.
Had this old man been following the convoy since Longevity Village?
Or was he following me?
What exactly was this old man's purpose?
What did he want to do by following the convoy?
Thick black smoke billowed from the Hunchbacked Old Puppet's eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, even the head on its back did the same.
The entire scene looked incredibly eerie and terrifying.
Just when Chen Ye thought the Hunchbacked Old Puppet and the sand snake would engage in a fierce battle.
The sand snake swallowed the Hunchbacked Old Puppet, which was emanating an eerie aura, in one gulp, then plunged headfirst into the sand dune, stirring up a cloud of dust.
During that brief moment.
The Apocalyptic Pickup Truck had already surged forward a short distance, narrowly escaping the sand snake's attack range.
The Apocalyptic Pickup Truck's engine was still roaring—just give it one minute, no, just twenty seconds, and it could escape the sand snake's attack range completely.
Sweat on his forehead carved a small channel down his face before slipping into his collar.
The engine continued to roar, and Chen Ye could even feel the vehicle's body trembling.
His right foot pressed down hard on the accelerator without daring to relax even slightly.
The steering wheel was also vibrating gently.
At this moment, every second meant life itself.
Forget about this Hunchbacked Old Puppet pretending to be a survivor.
Even if Captain Chu were sitting in the passenger seat right now, Chen Ye would kick him out of the vehicle without hesitation.
That damn Captain Chu—there was actually such an anomaly in the convoy, and he completely failed to detect it.
Is this Pathfinder Sequence even capable of doing its job?
If he could survive and return, Chen Ye would definitely grab Chu Che by the collar and ask this guy how he could possibly be a captain.
After the sand snake burrowed into the sand dune, it never emerged again.
The surface of the sand dune remained calm and undisturbed, as if nothing had ever happened.
But Chen Ye didn't dare relax at all, pressing the accelerator even harder.
Only after driving about ten meters did Chen Ye finally breathe a slight sigh of relief.
Just as Chen Ye was still wondering why the sand snake hadn't pursued him yet.
"Boom!"
The sand dune behind him suddenly erupted with sand flying everywhere, as if someone had dropped an artillery shell inside it.
The sand was blasted hundreds of meters into the air.
Then it fell back down, hitting the roof with pitter-patter sounds like rainfall.
Chen Ye stared intently at the rearview mirror, only to see the sand snake writhing within the sand dune, with one section of its body bulging significantly.
The densely packed eyes on the snake's head were wide open.
"Moo~~~~"
That deep, penetrating sound echoed again.
Visible sound waves exploded across the sand dunes.
Wherever the sound waves passed, sand and dust flew everywhere.
As the sound waves swept past the Apocalyptic Pickup Truck, Chen Ye could clearly hear the vehicle creaking and groaning.
The sonic waves passed through Chen Ye's body.
Chen Ye's expression changed, feeling as if he'd been struck hard in the back with a sledgehammer.
Gritting his teeth tightly, even so, Chen Ye didn't dare relax.
This sand snake was actually this terrifying!!!
"Bang! Bang!"
Both side mirrors were directly shattered by the sound waves.
From then on, this Apocalyptic Pickup Truck didn't even have rearview mirrors anymore.
Chen Ye felt his scalp tingling with fear, his head also feeling dizzy and heavy.
But his foot on the accelerator didn't relax in the slightest.
The Apocalyptic Pickup Truck's body swayed unsteadily, but it continued racing forward madly.
The deep roars continued from behind.
Each roar produced visible rings of sound waves, each stirring up flying sand and dust.
Even without rearview mirrors, Chen Ye could imagine what was happening behind him.
Ring after ring of sound waves assaulted them, the vehicle's last remaining bits of paint peeling away in the sonic onslaught, revealing the metal's original color.
More areas became pitted and uneven.
Chen Ye could also feel slight vibrations in his internal organs.
Crimson blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.
His complexion didn't look very good either.
Only when Chen Ye clearly felt the impact of the sound waves significantly weaken, to the point where they could no longer harm him at all.
Only then did Chen Ye stick his head out of the vehicle to look back.
This wasn't suicide!
But rather to see whether the sand snake was dead or alive—if he encountered it again in the future, he could at least have more information collected.
By now, the Apocalyptic Pickup Truck was already a full hundred meters away from the boiling sea of sand in the distance.
From time to time, he could see the sand snake writhing within the sandy sea.
The Hunchbacked Old Puppet had clearly been swallowed by the sand snake.
To be able to torment the sand snake like this, the Hunchbacked Old Puppet was obviously no simple entity either.
The engine continued roaring violently.
The Apocalyptic Pickup Truck's speed never decreased.
Only without a windshield, Chen Ye's face was stung by the flying sand.
Not far ahead, Chen Ye saw a camel trotting toward him from the sand dune ahead.
On the camel's back was clearly a figure with long flowing hair.
It's that kid Xue Nan!
...
When Xue Nan was fleeing with the convoy, he had already realized that an anomaly might be pursuing them from behind.
This kind of situation was completely normal during migratory life in the apocalypse.
Facing those terrifying anomalies, even human Sequence Superpowers only had self-preservation capabilities.
A camel's speed definitely couldn't compare to four wheels.
Therefore, when Chen Ye's vehicle overturned, Xue Nan behind him saw it clearly.
This kid witnessed firsthand on his camel how Chen Ye's vehicle crashed into that low-speed electric vehicle beside them...
Xue Nan's heart tightened—he had just pledged loyalty to Chen Ye, wanting to be Chen Ye's dog.
And now his master was dead?
Xue Nan rode on the camel's back, his body rising and falling with the camel's swaying gait.
He didn't know how long he had been running.
When Xue Nan looked back, he could only see two small dots on the distant sand dunes.
And that sand snake with its terrifying oppressive aura.
While fear shone in Xue Nan's eyes, he also began worrying whether Chen Ye might die.
It wasn't that Xue Nan's relationship with Chen Ye had deepened to such an extent.
First, Chen Ye killed Mo Huairen, which basically washed away his shame and avenged him.
Second, Xue Nan wanted to get close to Chen Ye, wanted to gain Chen Ye's protection, wanted to rely on Sequence Superpowers to find his younger sister.
Before the apocalypse, Xue Nan had millions of fans, with many people depending on him for their livelihood.
But now it was after the apocalypse—what millions of fans? They were nothing compared to Sequence Superpowers.
Xue Nan gritted his teeth, hardening his heart—he would gamble!
That's why, under everyone's astonished and surprised gazes, Xue Nan turned his camel around and charged straight back toward the danger.
...
Xue Nan saw that Chen Ye's Apocalyptic Pickup Truck had become even more battered.
That Apocalyptic Pickup Truck kicked up a cloud of dust as it rapidly approached Xue Nan.
"Mr. Chen! You..."
Before Xue Nan could finish speaking, Chen Ye's Apocalyptic Pickup Truck had already passed by Xue Nan, chasing straight after the convoy ahead.
Seeing this, Xue Nan gritted his teeth and turned his camel around again to follow.
Meanwhile, inside the vehicle, Chen Ye felt somewhat excited.
Holding the steering wheel with one hand, he reached into his chest pocket with the other, pulled out a cigarette and lit it.
He had just narrowly escaped from the sand snake's mouth by the skin of his teeth.
If he had hesitated for even a moment back then, or been a few seconds slower, perhaps he would be the one in the sand snake's stomach right now.
This thrilling brush with death sent Chen Ye's adrenaline soaring—his hand holding the cigarette was still trembling slightly.
This time's double-cross, swallowing the camel train—forget about how many supplies he obtained.
Just the Slaughter Points he gained, plus the newly completed cultivation supernormal method he just deduced, already counted as substantial rewards.
