Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 119 Fragrant City! The Strangled Spider!
Chu Sheng's words left everyone stunned for a moment.

At the same time, An Xi seemed to have suddenly gained insight, her eyes lit up, and she said in a slightly hoarse voice, "In other words, according to your method, we won't emit the slightest bit of life when we enter the city."

"Whether we are in the past or have arrived at our destination, our anger is suppressed."

“In that case, we can definitely go into the city!” Zhu Qing said with a look of joy.

"I haven't seen a tall building since I escaped!"

Old Li frowned. "I still think it's best not to go."

“We have no shortage of food and drink now. Even in this extreme heat, with Chu Sheng here, we will be fine.”

"On the contrary, going to the city, although there is no danger, is still too uncertain."

"It's actually quite good to be more stable."

Compared to An Xi and Zhu Qing, Old Man Li's ideas were more conservative.

However, what he said was not wrong at all.

Indeed, it seems better to take a detour and leave the area affected by this extreme weather than to enter the city.

Hui nodded in agreement. "Old Li is right. I also think it's better to take a detour."

There's no need to risk going into the city.

Ah Xin glanced at An Xi, whose voice was a little hoarse, then at Chu Sheng, and then said, "Actually, I think we can go and take a look."

"The method Chu Sheng mentioned is indeed very suitable, and compared to other teams, we have another advantage."

As she spoke, she looked at Lu Guan and then continued, "Lu Guan has been in Fangxiang City before, so he is familiar with the place."

"And he won't be attacked by strange things."

At this point, Ah Xin paused, a strange expression appearing on her face, "And I don't believe that a ghost could remain in the city without being alive."

"If it's a bound spirit, that's fine, but not all strange things are bound spirits, and they still haven't left the city."

"My intuition tells me there's something wrong here."

"The eerie creatures chase after life force, treating us as food. Even the realm of the eerie creatures needs life force to make them leave."

"This shows that anger is very important to them, so those strange things that haven't left the city must be suspicious!"

"If we want to rebuild civilization, we must uncover these strange and unusual behaviors."

"Even if we take a step back and keep migrating, can we really survive indefinitely?"

Ah Xin's words silenced everyone.

"You may not have noticed something, but in the apocalypse, I have never seen anyone get pregnant, or even if someone did get pregnant, they didn't survive!"

"Besides, even if we don't go for that, just for the strange things that have been lingering in the city, it's worth the trip."

Chu Sheng looked at Ah Xin with a strange expression, as if he were meeting her for the first time.

Hui and the others had similar expressions to him.

Only Anxi thought it was normal.

Those who can get along with her are unlikely to be bad people.

Even if she's not a saint, she's at least a person with basic conscience.

They might not be able to sacrifice themselves for others in the apocalypse, but they wouldn't mind helping others as long as it doesn't affect themselves.

However, she wanted to find the City of Dawn so that everyone could live in peace and prosperity, while Ah Xin wanted to explore the root of the strangeness.

Upon hearing Ah Xin's words, the ghostly fire flickering in Lu Guan's eyes intensified, and his entire skeleton began to creak.

"Well said! Long live humanity! Long live civilization!"

"We, Lu Guan, firmly support human civilization!"

"For the sake of human civilization, I am willing to go to Fragrant City to investigate!"

"When we get to Fragrant City, I'll investigate why the strange entity is lingering in the city!"

Long live civilization!

Lu Guan's sudden enlightenment caught Chu Sheng off guard.

Chu Sheng gave him a strange look and said, "In that case, those who want to go to Fangxiang City can come with me, and those who don't can rest here."

"This place is quite far from Fragrant City, so the eerie perception of life force shouldn't extend to this area."

"Okay, that's settled then." Captain Hui nodded. "Old Li and I will stay here and wait for you."

As he spoke, he calculated for a moment and continued, "12 hours. We will stay here for 12 hours."

"It's 5:30 pm now, which means you need to be back by 5:30 am."

"Just to be on the safe side, you'd better be back here around four o'clock."

"Okay, let's do it that way." Chu Sheng nodded.

"Everyone, get ready. Come to my car at six o'clock and we'll go to Fangxiang City together."

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

Apart from Hui and Old Man Li, everyone else agreed.

As for the safety of Captain Hui and Old Man Li, Chu Sheng had nothing to worry about.

After all, Hui had said that this place would be safe for the next twelve hours.

Even if it's not safe, with Old Man Li around, it's safe.

Chu Sheng couldn't believe that Old Man Li, who seemed so unassuming, had no hidden cards up his sleeve.

The chili peppers, cucumbers, and peas he gave himself were all considered extraordinary ingredients.

Moreover, it is an extraordinary material that can be used directly.

Especially the chili peppers, which Chu Sheng had secretly used up before.

This thing exploded the moment it hit the ground, silently creating a 20-centimeter crater.

Although one chili pepper may not seem like much, Chu Sheng didn't believe that Old Man Li only had one chili pepper.

If it were him, he would naturally save up as much of this kind of stuff as he could.

After all, chili peppers and cherry tomatoes are different; there are no time restrictions.

The cucumber wasn't used, but given the power of the chili pepper, the cucumber's shield should have some effect.

With the cucumber tucked into his pocket, Chu Sheng lay on the bed waiting for the others to arrive.

An Xi was the first to arrive. She didn't bring anything else, only a black jade bone spear and two cub-shaped umbrellas that looked like disposable gloves.

After stuffing the baby's hiccup umbrella under Chu Sheng's pillow, An Xi plopped down on his bed.

As a girl who had just finished the college entrance examination and hadn't even released the pressure of high school when she encountered the apocalypse, An Xi didn't hesitate or act coy.

After all, the fishier stuff is already in your mouth, so what's there to be embarrassed about?

Chu Sheng was squeezed against the cargo box door by her, while An Xi asked with some confusion, "Why did you think of going to Fangxiang City?"

"Given your personality, you should have taken a detour."

Chu Sheng smiled but didn't say anything.

He actually wanted to take a detour, but after hearing Lu Guan say that there were many extraordinary materials in Fangxiang City, he inexplicably felt a sense of longing.

It's like parched land encountering dark clouds that have been gathering rain for a long time, desperately wanting raindrops to fall and nourish everything.

And that's the feeling that Fangxiang City has.

Chu Sheng had a deep-seated feeling that there was something very important to him in Fangxiang City, and that he would be incomplete without it. However, he didn't say it aloud at the time, but instead acted as if he were blinded by extraordinary materials.

He naturally wouldn't answer An Xi's question now.

Even if An Xi were his wife, Chu Sheng wouldn't say anything, let alone the fact that he only slept with her once.

His feeling towards An Xi was that she was slightly more trustworthy than Old Man Li and the others, but that was all.

Not hearing Chu Sheng's voice, An Xi pursed her lips, and unconsciously touched Chu Sheng with one hand.

"Huh?!" Sensing An Xi's movement, Chu Sheng looked at her in surprise.

"what are you doing?"

"I didn't do anything." An Xi immediately withdrew her hand and coughed twice to cover up her embarrassment.

"Could I have developed some kind of attribute in her?" Chu Sheng looked at An Xi suspiciously, a thought popping into his mind.

An Xi was sitting with her back to Chu Sheng, her face flushed red.

Kill it! Kill it! How can you not control yourself?!

At that moment, Ah Xin, carrying a backpack, opened the car door and got in.

Seeing An Xi's face turn completely red, Ah Xin's gaze immediately became somewhat strange, and she coughed lightly, "I know you two have gotten a taste for it, but be careful who you are."

"Xin Xin! What are you saying!" An Xi immediately stood up and retorted loudly.

"We didn't do anything!"

“Okay, you didn’t do anything.” Ah Xin nodded, but her expression clearly showed disbelief.

As Ah Xin arrived, less than a minute later, Zhu Qing and Lu Guan also entered the Netherworld Bone Cart.

Compared to Zhu Qing and the others who had seen the Netherworld Bone Chariot, Lu Guan let out a gasp of amazement.

"This car is perfect for me!"

"The skull embedded in the roof of the car is practically made for me!"

"The skull inside the car and the will-o'-the-wisp in my eyes are not the same color."

Lu Guan kept saying, "Shall we set off now?! I can't wait!"

"set off!"

As soon as Lu Guan appeared, his mouth opened and closed repeatedly, sending out waves of mental energy in all directions.

Is this the aftereffect of not seeing or talking to anyone for three months?
"You can drive the Netherworld Bone Chariot. I'll hide in the back. The rest of you, go into the cargo box."

Chu Sheng got out of bed, opened the door leading to the cargo box, and then explained to him how to drive the Netherworld Bone Cart.

"You mean, left foot brake, right foot accelerator, enemies within a hundred meters will automatically attack, strange creatures blocking the way will be directly killed, and when encountering danger, the speed can be increased by 400%, and when the vehicle is damaged, scales will fall off, and these scales will chase after me on their own, and then I only need to control the steering wheel, and this car will never flip over, right?"

Chu Sheng nodded. "Yes, that's how it is in theory."

"Is your car some kind of magical bumper car?"

Lu Guan looked as if he had seen his beloved woman, and sat in the driver's seat like a lovesick man, constantly stroking the steering wheel.

"Alright, let's drive." Chu Sheng cut a tri-colored tarpaulin he had always treasured into the size of the car window, covered the window from the inside, and then sat on the bed and spoke.

"Go! go! go! Let's go!"

Urged on by Chu Sheng, Lu Guan slammed on the gas pedal, and the Netherworld Bone Chariot sped off into the distance.

It can outpace 99.99% of vehicles in 0-100 km/h acceleration!
In an instant, the speed of the Netherworld Bone Chariot soared to two hundred.

In the convoy, Captain Hui and Old Man Li watched the vehicles drive away and sighed.

"Do you think they'll come back alive?" Old Li asked.

"It should be okay, right?"

Hui said, but he himself seemed a little insecure.

"You should have just decided to take the detour. I don't know what the situation is like in the city, but it's definitely not as safe as you say."

"When did I say there was no danger? I only said we wouldn't encounter any danger if we went in!"

"The difference between these two is significant!"

"Hmph." Old Li chuckled. "Your divination is sometimes accurate and sometimes not."

"I hope Xiao Anxi and A Xin can come back. I quite like those two girls."

“Unlike you heartless people, these two girls still have some light in their hearts.”

"You talk like you're not heartless," Hui retorted. "You have so many things, but I've never seen you take them out!"

"Don't think I didn't foresee this!"

"That's my trump card, something I use to save my life in dangerous situations! Like now, if you encounter any danger, I can still save your life."

As the two were talking, the Netherworld Bone Chariot in the distance, even with its enhanced body, appeared as nothing more than a black dot.

Meanwhile, inside the cargo box of the Netherworld Bone Cart, illuminated by the eerie green ghost fire on the ceiling, Zhu Qing couldn't help but gasp at the various supplies inside.

"Good guy! I call him good guy!"

"How does Chu Sheng have so many supplies?!"

Seven or eight bags of rice and flour were piled in the corner, and various snacks, instant food, noodles and the like filled half the floor of the cargo box. An Xi and the others were standing in it, their knees submerged in the snacks.

Meanwhile, various odds and ends were piled up on the other side of the ground, including even a bamboo reclining chair from the countryside.

On the skull on the roof of the vehicle, a lot of cured meat was hanging with wire.

With just a quick glance, Zhu Qing estimated how long it would take one person to finish all this food.

Even if Zhu Qing were to eat all of this, it would take him one or two years.

Especially rice and flour; they'd probably get moldy before we could finish them.

"It's so nice to have a big car!" Zhu Qing said enviously, looking at the food around her.

Anxi glanced at the pile of rice and flour, then pulled Ah Xin to sit down on it.

"Stop making a fuss, you have plenty of supplies too."

"How can that be the same?" Zhu Qing said sourly, "My car can't fit everything, so it's mostly filled with food."

"Then why don't you find a few more extraordinary materials and have Chu Sheng help you upgrade your car?"

Anxi leaned against the rice and found a familiar feeling.

"Even though that's what they say, this car is really nice." Ah Xin's eyes also showed a hint of envy.

She noticed something was off about the space as soon as she entered the cargo container.

Or rather, it wasn't just her; Zhu Qing and the others also sensed something was wrong, after all, the space was simply too vast.

Just as the three were talking, the Netherworld Bone Cart approached Fragrant City.

The roar of the accelerator carried far across the open field.

They were still some distance from the outskirts of Fragrant City, but they had already encountered something strange.

"Die, die!" Lu Guan's eyes were practically blazing with excitement.

Upon seeing the strange accelerator pedal, he even stepped into the gas tank.

In front of the Netherworld Bone Chariot, a strange spider covered in feathers, with eight spliced ​​limbs supporting it, its head upside down on its chest, with no mouth or nose, only six green eyes, was looking at its 'kind' driving the chariot with suspicion.

In its limited intelligence, it still remembered this fellow creature, which had passed by it twice before, and now saw it again.

"Hehehe! Little Spider!" Lu Guan's laughter gradually became distorted.
