Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse

"Captain, what exactly did you do before? How do you know so much?"

Chen Ye finally couldn't hold back and asked the question that had been burning in his mind.

Everyone clearly had the same twenty-four hours in a day, the same sixty minutes in an hour.

But Captain Chu Che simply knew more than he did.

It was almost like he was an apocalypse encyclopedia.

When Chen Ye asked this, even the pink-haired girl and Ding Dong looked curious.

"That's right, Captain, how do you know so much? Were you a member of some organization specializing in Sequence Superpowers research before the apocalypse?"

"Don't overthink it. When it's time for you to know, you'll know. Knowing now wouldn't do you any good anyway."

Chu Che picked up the teacup in front of him, using it to shield his eyes.

Only to discover the cup was already empty.

"Tch~~~"

The pink-haired girl snorted disdainfully.

Since their last conversation, the pink-haired girl had stopped her heavy drinking for quite some time, showing an unusually strong dedication to cultivation.

Just as the girl was about to get up again, Chen Ye asked: "Xixi, that flying sword technique you used to kill that Demon Sequence before—why haven't I seen you use it until now?"

Hearing Chen Ye's question, the girl, who had just started to rise, sat back down, slightly raising her chin with pride as she said: "Flying sword technique, just practiced this ultimate move. Pretty impressive, right?"

"Our sequence is called the Sword Immortal Sequence—you didn't think it was just a fancy name, did you?"

The girl looked very pleased.

For some reason, the pink-haired girl just loved showing off in front of Chen Ye.

Especially when she saw the frustrated look in his eyes.

Chen Ye did indeed feel somewhat frustrated.

In their four-person team—no, five-person team—it seemed like he was currently the weakest.

Iron Lion had already advanced to Sequence 2. Although Chen Ye hadn't seen him fight yet, just thinking about it told him Iron Lion was strong.

Sun Xixi went without saying—this girl had comprehended the flying sword technique after just a few days of practice.

As for Chu Che, this guy was ridiculously mysterious. Although his combat ability might not be great, the secrets he knew were probably more than Chen Ye could imagine.

Wait, he had never seen Chu Che fight, so his combat ability was still uncertain.

As for the newly joined Ding Dong, this woman clearly wasn't someone to mess with.

At this point, Chen Ye felt even more anticipation for the training method for supernatural abilities that had just been completed through deduction.

He was also increasingly looking forward to upgrading the Apocalyptic Pickup Truck into a Wonder.

"You're saying you only mastered that flying sword technique in the past few days?"

Chu Che became interested, a trace of astonishment in his tone.

"Yep, don't you guys know me? If I really knew the flying sword technique before, why wouldn't I have used it?"

"You... have ridiculously heaven-defying talent!"

Chu Che praised, while also growing curious about the demon fruit the pink-haired girl had eaten, thinking to ask her properly when he had the chance later.

"Alright, you guys chat, I'm going to go cultivate!"

The pink-haired girl tossed her pink ponytail, looking every bit the motivated young girl.

"Wait a moment, after taking over the camel train this time, everyone needs to divide the supplies!"

"Iron Lion, no, Mad Lion, stop eating and come divide the supplies!"

Only then did Chen Ye notice that Iron Lion was still eating—this guy had actually never stopped throughout their entire conversation.

Right where he was sitting, a mountain of bones had piled up.

The two survivors roasting meat for him had been replaced again.

Hearing Chu Che call him, the guy slowly stood up, actually looking like he hadn't had enough yet.

This time, after double-crossing and swallowing the camel train, the supplies they obtained were definitely the richest haul yet.

Every vehicle was packed full. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Chen Ye's Apocalyptic Pickup Truck was so overloaded it was tilting sideways.

Old Bao directed several survivors to unload supplies from everyone's vehicles, and by the light of the campfire and flashlights, they spread out a huge pile on the sand dune.

Zhou Xiaoxiao was also drawn by the commotion, knowing these people were about to start dividing supplies again.

Since joining the convoy, she had encountered this situation several times.

After her sister was gone, the supplies that originally belonged to two people now all belonged to her alone.

But Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't feel happy about it.

Now, seeing so many supplies, Zhou Xiaoxiao's desire to awaken Sequence Superpowers grew even stronger.

Xu Lina was also in the crowd, her beautiful eyes flickering with an inexplicable light, shifting back and forth between Chen Ye and the pile of supplies.

After experiencing so much, Xu Lina understood one thing: to survive, she either needed to awaken as a Sequence Supernatural herself,

or attach herself to a Sequence Supernatural.

Xu Lina knew very well how difficult it would be for her to awaken, so she wanted to take the path through Chen Ye.

But after these past few days of interaction, Xu Lina knew how difficult Chen Ye was to handle—much more troublesome than any young man she'd met before.

This person appeared easygoing on the surface, able to joke with people, but inside he was extremely cold, even ruthless.

But Xu Lina hadn't given up; in fact, she felt even more excited.

The more someone was like this, the greater the rewards after conquering them.

Back then, everyone thought that important figure had taken a liking to her, allowing her to rise rapidly.

But no one knew that she had actually made the first move back then.

This secret was known only to herself, and no one else.

The supplies were spread out into a small mountain on the sand dune.

The most eye-catching were the items placed on a plastic sheet.

The very familiar pile was the bull bones Chen Ye had long had his eyes on.

Chu Che picked up the bull bones, examining them left and right, but couldn't figure anything out.

He even took two bones and knocked them together, producing a metallic clinking sound.

Next to them was a metal lighter.

A lighter?

As a smoker, it was impossible for him not to pay attention to lighters.

The lighter he used now was one he had collected back in Xinghua Town and Longevity Village.

There were quite a few of these things; you could easily find dozens or even hundreds in any convenience store or small supermarket.

Chen Ye picked up the lighter to examine it.

The lighter felt cold to the touch, giving off a very peculiar sensation.

A line of information appeared in Chen Ye's mind.

[Love Brain Lighter, Number: 05172]

[Use: Fire Control!]

[Side Effect: Must say "I love you" one hundred times to this metal lighter every day, otherwise the lighter may very well go on strike.]

This is... a Wonder?

The introduction was simple and clear, with only two words for its use.

Chen Ye couldn't figure out what this "fire control" actually meant.

As for the side effect, it was somewhat perverted—what sane person would say "I love you" one hundred times to a lighter every day?

Chen Ye also noticed a line of small text at the bottom of the lighter: "For you, I can sacrifice everything! Even my life."

A sense of craziness washed over him.

"So this is that Wonder? Let me see!"

The weight in his hand lightened as the pink-haired girl snatched the metal lighter from his grasp.

She seemed to be receiving the information in her mind as well.

Wonders had a characteristic: whenever they were unowned, any supernatural who touched them would receive basic information about the Wonder.

If the person was an ordinary human, the Wonder would just be an ordinary object, nothing special.

Once a Wonder recognized an owner, other supernaturals touching it would not trigger the information reception.

Chu Che said that Wonders were like raising cats or dogs at home—they didn't require procedures like blood recognition for ownership.

Only through prolonged contact and understanding could the effect of ownership be achieved.

Just like raising a pet.

For example, a guard dog would show strong aggression when its owner was attacked.

While a Golden Retriever would follow anyone holding its leash.

As for a Husky, once you let go of the leash, it would be gone.

Each had its own temperament.

Chen Ye currently only had one Wonder—the Blood Resentment Machete, which he had made himself.

When Chen Ye obtained the machete, he hadn't felt any ownership recognition process at all.

"Mr. Chen, Miss Sun, I know how to use this thing!"

A voice, cool yet somewhat ingratiating, came from nearby.

The two turned around and saw it was Xue Nan.

Xue Nan was covered in dust, clearly having just returned, and his expression looked very weary.
