Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 158 The Hidden Dangers of the Eternal Flame! The Strange Things at the Dock!

As the Eternal Flame merged with him, Chu Sheng's previously confused mind was instantly soothed.

After the apocalypse, he wondered what his future held and whether he would continue to wander like this, but the final outcome remained unknown.

Therefore, Chu Sheng buried the answer to this question deep in his heart, but with the appearance of the Eternal Flame, the question was answered.

The path of life lies beneath your feet.

All he wanted was to live. Since he was just trying to live, there was no difference between a stable life and wandering.

The confusion in my heart vanished, and the fear of the future disappeared.

Chu Sheng's gaze hardened; no one could stop him from living!

If so, then kill that person!

With a thought, the flame pattern between his brows emerged, transforming back into an orange-red flame that floated in the air. Following his will, the Eternal Flame drifted in the air as he desired.

"Now we have a mobile source of fire."

In Chu Sheng's opinion, this Eternal Flame was a bit excessive.

This is completely inconsistent with the fact that the offering is ranked over 5,000th; it should be ranked higher.

The eternal flame can dispel confusion and fear, and bestow upon us a hymn of courage.

This is absolutely the essential spiritual medicine for the apocalypse.

It is well known that long-term stress can lead to a breakdown, ranging from insanity to suicidal thoughts.

But having the Eternal Flame is different; you won't have any of that mental pressure at all.

Chu Sheng had never felt as normal as he did now.

Even the black flames flowing within his body seemed to have cooled down.

Just then, Hui's voice came from the conch shell hanging on the steering wheel of the Netherworld Chariot.

"Chu Sheng, come out quickly! A strange creature has appeared!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Sheng was taken aback, then immediately got out of the carriage with the red and white bone bow in hand.

After he got out of the car, Xingzi ran straight to his side and said, "Brother Chusheng, there's a dock ahead, and a strange creature is running towards us."

“An Xi and Zhu Qing are in the past.”

"Okay, I understand." Chu Sheng nodded slightly, and the black flames flowing through his body accelerated a bit, causing white steam to emanate from his body.

This is the evaporation of moisture from the clothes and water vapor in the air.

He strode forward, and Xingzi quickly followed, though her eyes would occasionally glance at the flame pattern between Chu Sheng's brows.

She always felt that Chu Sheng was a little different, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.

When Chu Sheng saw the strange creature, he was completely stunned.

Unlike the strange things I've encountered before.

Although the strange things we encountered before were also bizarre and even pieced together, we could still make out some of their original appearance.

But this is strange.
Chu Sheng only thought it was a balloon.

A skull of indescribable race floated in the air, connected to a spine like a string tied to the bottom of a balloon.

At the very bottom of the rope, a fish skeleton with four limbs was crawling on the ground.

Whether it's a skull, a spine, or a fish skeleton, there are still some bright red flesh and blood on them, not much, just scattered bits attached to the bones, as if they hadn't been gnawed clean.

This weirdo is the kind that makes your sanity drop just by looking at it.

Chu Sheng couldn't help but frown. A sense of fearlessness inexplicably arose in his heart. There was no fear, no apprehension, only a desire to try.

It even gave me the feeling of rushing in for hand-to-hand combat.

"Huh?!" Chu Sheng sensed something was wrong almost instantly.

When did he become so brainless?

Hand-to-hand combat is so painful, and who knows what abilities the strange creatures possess? Hand-to-hand combat is the most dangerous.

His idea has always been to stay away from danger.

As he thought about it, the eternal flame burning between his brows appeared directly before his eyes, and with the appearance of the eternal flame, the feeling of eagerness vanished without a trace.

The case is solved. This thing gave him the courage to think about going up and fighting hand-to-hand.

"I need to be more careful in the future," Chu Sheng thought to himself, as he put the Eternal Flame back into his brow.

Although he is not affected by the cost of the sacrifice, the effect of the sacrifice can still affect him.

Especially this kind of buff.

Just as he was thinking this, Zhu Qing and An Xi had already started fighting the strange creature.

Chu Sheng had his bow drawn, ready to fire a few arrows, when he saw Zhu Qing rush forward and smash the strange skull off with a single punch.

Then, grasping the spine, he pulled it off the fish skeleton crawling on the ground.

An Xi's black jade bone spear had just begun to emit the power of Geng metal, and before she could even make a move, Zhu Qing had already finished.

The whole thing took less than three seconds, and this bizarre creature that caused people to lose sanity was killed instantly.

An Xi and Chu Sheng were somewhat stunned, and Zhu Qing was equally bewildered.

"This weirdo is so easily defeated?"

Zhu Qing's voice reached Chu Sheng's ears from dozens of meters away.

Chu Sheng simply folded the red and white bone bow back into place.

An Xi then dispelled the Gengjin power on the black jade bone spear, and walked to Chu Sheng's side. She glanced at him curiously, noticing his slightly different demeanor, but did not speak.

Zhu Qing soon returned carrying two extraordinary materials.

Spine, fish tail.

"Hey, according to the distribution, there's no share for you two this time." "The captain reminded me that I killed the strange creature by myself. According to the rules, these two materials are to be divided between me and the captain."

Team Leader Hui also walked over at this moment, glanced at the two extraordinary materials in Zhu Qing's hand, and said, "This strange creature is actually so weak."

As he spoke, he began to calculate, and after a short while, a look of joy appeared on his face.

"It seems I can now deduce the abilities and anomalies of Sequence 9."

"That's great news!" Zhu Qing and An Xi were quite happy, and Chu Sheng was also delighted.

As the team leader, the more things Hui can calculate, the safer they will be.

This is a good thing for improving fleet safety!

However, he still asked, "Logically speaking, Ah Xin extinguished the life force of our team, so why is this strange creature heading this way?"

This is indeed a problem.

Zhu Qing and An Xi also looked at Hui, waiting for his answer.

Hui shook his head. "This weirdo is Sequence Nine. It has been staying at the dock up ahead. It didn't actually sense our presence. It just saw us because it could see further than us under the mist."

Hearing his words, Chu Sheng and the other two nodded; this made sense.

Being angry is being angry, and seeing is seeing.

The two are completely different.

The eerie will chase after life force; if it cannot sense life force, it will not chase after it.

But even if they aren't angry, the monsters will still attack them if they see them.

This is similar to stealth technology in the military industry. It's not true stealth; it's just that radar can't detect it, but it can still be seen with the naked eye.

This is a principle.

As they were talking, Zhu Qing gave Hui his two-meter-tall spine, while he gave Chu Sheng his fish tail along with two keys.

"Chu Sheng, here's the fish tail. Please help me fuse these two keys together."

Chu Sheng naturally took the fish tail and the two keys.

There are two keys; one is made of extraordinary materials, while the other is an ordinary key.

"Are you planning to strengthen your understanding of lock picking?" Chu Sheng glanced at Zhu Qing and asked.

Zhu Qing nodded. "Lu Guan and I have been in the captain's car these past few days, which isn't a good thing. I still want to get a car."

“There are some cars on the road, but I can’t find the keys and can’t drive them. Maybe I should try to get a master key.”

Zhu Qing's thoughts are usually easy to guess; they are simple, straightforward, and clear.

Chu Sheng smiled and said nothing. Almost instantly, the two keys merged into one.

As his sequence level increased, the speed at which he fused offerings accelerated considerably.

[Decoding Key]

[Ranking of offerings: 8997]

[Unlocking: Consuming mental energy allows you to match the key with the lock cylinder. Any door with a keyhole can be unlocked!]

[Decryption: Any information that is "locked" can be decrypted by answering the corresponding questions.]

[Sacrifice: Extraordinary items; every use comes at a price!]

[Cost of Use: Each use will randomly erase memories. After ten uses, the memory will definitely be blank!]

[Hidden Attribute: If you are Chu Sheng, there is no cost to using this!]

Chu Sheng took a close look at the description of the decryption ability, and had some guesses in his mind. Then he looked at Zhu Qing with some pity in his eyes.

They're already stupid, and now they want their memories erased? Wouldn't that make them even stupider?

This key can only be given to someone else, but he didn't think Zhu Qing would think of that.

After all, he's not very bright.

Zhu Qing, upon receiving the key and seeing the information, was overjoyed. "This is the key I wanted! I didn't expect such a pleasant surprise!"

"This is the price..."

Zhu Qing hesitated for a moment, but quickly smiled again.

"I happen to need a henchman, so I'll give this key to him."

Chu Sheng gave him a deep look; he truly hadn't expected Zhu Qing to think of that.

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether Zhu Qing was genuinely mentally challenged or just pretending.

Meanwhile, Hui, who was watching the two make their deal, turned his gaze forward.

The area ahead was still shrouded in mist, and nothing else could be seen except for the mist.

But according to his calculations, there was a dock there.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "There's a dock about two hundred meters ahead. Shall we go take a look?"

"Is there any danger?" Chu Sheng looked at him.

Upon hearing this, Hui shook his head. "There is no danger. Our trip will be peaceful."

"Of course, if there is a sequence 7 anomaly, I can't calculate it, but I can guarantee that there are no sequence 9 or sequence 8 anomalies there."

"But that's enough. Even a Sequence 9 Abomination can see us from the dock. If it were a Sequence 7 Abomination, it would have come over long ago."

His words made Chu Sheng and the other two nod in agreement, saying, "Indeed."

"Let's go take a look then," Chu Sheng said. "But I'll drive there. If it's dangerous, we can just run away."

Upon hearing this, Hui gave Chu Sheng an approving look.
