Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 165 Life is born through the work of nature!
"Hmm," Chu Sheng nodded after a moment of silence. He had indeed mentioned half a piece of extraordinary material to An Xi last time.

He wasn't going to go back on his word, but he glanced at An Xi and added, "I did say that, but it's hard to calculate half a piece. I'll pay twice the price upfront. Give me a piece of extraordinary material first."

“Okay!” An Xi agreed immediately.

He got out of the vehicle and carried the two fish bones that were outside into the Netherworld Chariot.

"One is for you, and the other is for you too."

An Xi's words were a bit convoluted, but Chu Sheng understood what she meant.

One was the reward for merging the sacrificial offerings, and the other was plagiarism.

An Xi didn't stay there long. She just gave Chu Sheng a haughty look and left with her head held high, saying, "Your service was pretty good. I'm very satisfied."

Chu Sheng: "."

You're probably not just satisfied, are you?

Every single time, it was you who cried and begged me not to come.

After An Xi left, Chu Sheng shook his head, "He only remembers the good times, not the bad."

"This time, I've developed all three holes for you."

An Xi had only been gone for two minutes when Zhu Qing showed up at the door.

After placing the fishing line and octopus tentacles onto the Netherworld Chariot, Zhu Qing said, "Chu Sheng, help me fuse that ship-chariot together."

"Have you resigned yourself to your fate?" Chu Sheng glanced at him.

“I’ve resigned myself to my fate.” Zhu Qing sighed. “I thought I could get a sacrificial object that could transform between a ship and a car, but it turned out to be this thing.”

"Just tell me whether the final function is to be able to go on land or underwater."

Zhu Qing: "."

Don't say it, don't say it!
After finding the driver yesterday, he borrowed some gasoline from Hui and experimented with it directly.

It can actually go into the water!
Although it looks strange, the boat doesn't sink when it's on the water and has pretty good balance.

Moreover, the engine is four-wheel drive. Although accelerating by rotating the tires in the water is a bit slow, it's still better than not being able to go into the water at all.

So after the initial disappointment, Zhu Qing eventually fell in love with it.

It doesn't matter if he's a little ugly, he can accept it.

Anyway, most of his supplies are in Chu Sheng's car, so he just needs to speed up his boat.

After placing the two extraordinary materials into the Netherworld Chariot, Zhu Qing did not continue discussing the topic with Chu Sheng. Instead, he pointed to the two extraordinary materials and said, "The fishing line and the tentacles are my reward for you this time."

"I want to fuse two extraordinary materials into my ship. According to your price, it's one and a half extraordinary materials, but I still owe you half a piece, so it's exactly two extraordinary materials."

"We've settled our accounts."

"Okay." Chu Sheng nodded. He no longer had any debts.

Seeing Chu Sheng nod, Zhu Qing continued, "You should also know what extraordinary materials I obtained are."

"I'll give you these two extraordinary materials. I still have three left. The gills aren't suitable for fusion into the car. All I have left is a complete fish tail and a two-meter-long fish skeleton."

Chu Sheng didn't speak, but just kept nodding.

"So I wanted to integrate the fishbone into the frame of the boat."

“I want to incorporate that complete fishtail into the exhaust port.”

Chu Sheng continued to nod, noting that the bone-type extraordinary material was well-suited for integrating into the vehicle's frame and chassis.

He was puzzled by the location where the fish tail was fused together, and looked at Zhu Qing with a question in his mind, saying, "Why did you fuse the fish tail to the exhaust vent?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's to increase speed. When the exhaust vent is submerged in water, the exhaust vent will be completely covered by water."

"Isn't the offering you're fusing supposed to have a specific orientation?"

"The fish's tail is used to accelerate swimming, and the air coming out of the exhaust port is also a sign of speed. Combining these two aspects can increase speed."

Chu Sheng: "."

He had never been so speechless in his life.

Although he didn't know if the exhaust port was related to the power, he knew a fatal weakness of Zhu Qingchuan's car.

So he reminded him, "Have you overlooked something?"

"Huh?" Zhu Qing was taken aback and looked at him in confusion. "What is it?"

"Turn around!"

"Your boat is not turning!"

Upon hearing Chu Sheng's words, Zhu Qing's eyes widened. After thinking carefully, she realized that the boat and cart indeed did not have the ability to turn in the water.

Actually, it's not that it lacks steering ability; after all, the steering wheel can control the two front wheels, and the deflection of the wheels can naturally turn the boat or vehicle.

However, if the wheels are too small, the steering ability is the same as having no steering ability at all.

Seeing that Zhu Qing had realized this, Chu Sheng was quite gratified, even though he wasn't a good person.

But he also knew that if the people in the team survived, he could survive better.

Especially Zhu Qing, An Xi, Hui Dui, and Ah Xin.

It doesn't matter if others are there or not, but they must be well.

After all, the first two are the main fighting forces, and with them around, safety can be guaranteed.

Hui, the latter's team leader, served as the guide. Although he occasionally malfunctioned, the team did indeed avoid many dangers with him by their side.

Finally, Ah Xin is the best choice to avoid the supernatural; with her around, the supernatural can't find them.

As for the other three, they were merely icing on the cake.

Therefore, as long as it doesn't involve himself, Chu Sheng doesn't mind helping them with the fusion of sacrificial offerings and the selection of extraordinary materials.

After all, not saying it wouldn't do you any good, and might even do you some harm, but saying it could at least salvage your image.

"I suggest you integrate that fishtail trim onto the tire."

"I can barely control the power of fusion offerings now, and I'll enhance your steering ability later."

"That's great!" Zhu Qing's face lit up with joy upon hearing his words.

"Let's not delay, let's get started now!"

Zhu Qing couldn't help but get excited at the thought that he would also have a sacrificial vehicle with unlimited power.

He had been incredibly envious of Chu Sheng, An Xi, and Ah Xin when the extreme heat had hit.

Their cars have unlimited power, and can keep the interior cool even in extreme heat.

Zhu Qing was woken up seven times that night because of the heat!

The two quickly arrived at the boat, where Zhu Qing's girlfriend and driver were already waiting.

Upon seeing Chu Sheng, the girl became somewhat reserved, only calling out "Brother Chu" before taking a few steps away.

Chu Sheng glanced at her but didn't pay her any attention.

He didn't see ordinary survivors as human beings.

Seeing Chu Sheng and Zhu Qing huddled together, with two extraordinary materials placed nearby, some of the bolder survivors gathered not far behind them.

Zhou Dun, along with his two younger sisters, Wu Meng, and Wu Jie, squeezed to the very front.

"Brother Zhou, are they trying to fuse the sacrificial offerings?" Li Qian pursed her lips and whispered.

"I wonder what kind of offerings they're going to combine."

"It's probably a fusion car," Wu Meng guessed from the side. "After all, with such a large fish skeleton and tail, besides a car, there probably isn't anything else that can be fused together." "A car?!" Li Ling's eyes widened, her face full of anticipation. "Will this car grow a fish tail?"

Zhou Dun watched without saying a word. He still had a sacrificial object in his hand. He had originally planned to get another extraordinary material to have Chu Sheng fuse it with another sacrificial object.

He looked down at his left forearm, which was covered with numerous knife scars, each about one centimeter long.

This is the price he paid.

Not only the survivors, but also Hui and Cheng Xue, leaning against the off-road vehicle, were watching.

The same applies to Old Man Li and his driver.

Anxi and Ah Xin sat in the black-hearted SUV watching and talking to each other.

Xingzi then moved closer to Chu Sheng and asked curiously, "Brother Chu Sheng, are you going to fuse with the sacrificial offering?"

"Hmm." Chu Sheng nodded, then tapped on the bow-shaped part of the boat at the very front.

There's a skeleton lying here, clutching a skull, as if it had been dead for a long time.

"Lu Guan, stop pretending to be dead."

"Be careful, or I might fuse you in with the offering."

Chu Sheng's words caused ghostly blue flames to slowly appear in Lu Guan's eyes, and then he jumped out from the bow of the ship.

"Brother Chu! Wait! I'm leaving now!"

"Don't kill me! I have elderly parents and young children to support! If I die, who will collect your bodies?"

Lu Guan jumped off the bow of the ship and grabbed Chu Sheng's leg, crying and wailing incessantly.

"I haven't found a coffin yet to make offerings for the deceased! I can't die yet!"

"The cemetery I dreamed of building hasn't been completed yet! I really can't die!!"

"Waaaaah~ Brother Chu!!"

Lu Guan's words were transmitted to Chu Sheng and the others through mental power.

Zhu Qing looked at Lu Guan with disgust, "How embarrassing!"

He would never dare to say that he and Lu Guan were teammates in the same car again.

Xingzi looked thoughtfully at Chu Sheng, who hadn't kicked Lu Guan away yet.

If she were to hug Chu Sheng's leg like this, and then slide down his leg...
Her face flushed redder and redder, and she couldn't help but swallow hard as she looked at Chu Sheng.

He smells so good!

Zhu Qing dragged Lu Guan away.

With no one in his way, Chu Sheng glanced at the intact fish tail and two-meter-long fish skeleton leaning against the boat, then placed one hand directly on the boat.

The next moment, a flash of white light appeared.

soon!
Almost instantly, the information about the ship and vehicle appeared in his mind.

Amphibious Fish Cart

[Ranking of offerings: 7445]

[Skeleton: Reinforces the framework, enhances stability, and increases resilience.]

[Amphibious: It can move freely on the water!]

[Power battery: It can be powered by an electric shock.]

[Swimming Fish: It can move nimbly on the water's surface like a swimming fish, slightly reducing the amount of life remaining on the surface.]

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

[Usage Costs: Just as fish die without water, so too does a vehicle incorporating a fish tail and bones. It requires daily water washing to provide 'nutrients,' otherwise it will die from choking on fish bones! It must also withstand ten minutes of extreme electric shock daily! Otherwise, it will be electrocuted by millions of degrees of high voltage!]

[But if you are Chu Sheng, there is no cost to using it!]

Everything was progressing as expected, and Chu Sheng was very satisfied with You Yu's ability.

This was the first time he had relied on his own ideas to determine the scope of his abilities.

He was confident that as his cultivation progressed, he would eventually be able to imbue the sacrificial objects he created with the abilities he desired.

Chu Sheng was satisfied with his abilities, while Zhu Qing's face lit up with a wide smile when he saw the fish cart's abilities.

He was content with unlimited energy, the ability to go underwater and on land.

The fish cart had not yet been recognized by its owner. While Zhu Qing was observing its abilities, Lu Guan also saw it.

"You're very capable, but we don't seem to have that much water, do we?" Lu Guan looked at Zhu Qing after seeing the price.

"Although we don't lack water in this foggy place right now, we can't guarantee that we won't lack water in the future."

Upon hearing his words, Zhu Qing looked directly at Chu Sheng.

When Zhu Qing looked at him, Chu Sheng simply nodded silently.

He remembered that during the extreme heat, he had received some extraordinary materials and was told that they would provide them with water.

"Here's an extra bucket of water; that's enough to wash the car."

Hearing Chu Sheng's words, Zhu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on her face. "That's enough!"

When washing a car, there are different methods depending on the amount of water used.

Apart from Chu Sheng, An Xi and Zhu Qing, who had been allocated supplies, had already finished their tasks.

Hui only received one offering and will not come looking for him.

Chu Sheng returned to the Netherworld Chariot and began preparing to replace his sacrificial musket with a cannon.

There was a hint of excitement in his eyes.

He didn't just randomly hide those two extraordinary materials.

There's no need to hoard ordinary materials.

Chu Sheng is an upright and honorable person! He is someone who can sacrifice himself for human civilization!
If anyone questions him, he will unleash the eternal fire to suppress all dissent.

But when he saw that palm-sized cruiser toy, an idea popped into his head.

If this idea could be realized, he felt that he could choose not to be an upright person, nor could he choose not to sacrifice himself for civilization.

When questioned, he would only nod in agreement; he was indeed not a good person.

Cruiser!
Even though it's a toy, it's still a cruiser! Something with a specific purpose!

And that's not the key point. The key point is that this thing can be twisted into a robot!

If this thing were to merge with the Nether Chariot, wouldn't it instantly become a Transformer?!
The data adapter cable was an attempt at another idea of ​​his.

Although he can now make the offerings improve in the direction he wants when he fuses them.

However, if he had a superb material with similar properties, he could save a lot of effort.

However, before that, Chu Sheng thought he should give the butcher a boost first.

Chu Sheng pulled the butcher from his waist and gently stroked the blade.

The butcher's blade was incredibly sharp, but when Chu Sheng touched it, it didn't cut him.

This is the most unique sacrificial item he created. It was just a cat-killing knife made by fusing multiple extraordinary materials, but it turned into a butcher.

He didn't know much about the Heavenly Craft Sequence before, so he didn't find it strange and just considered it a relatively small possibility.

But as he advanced to Sequence Eight of the Heavenly Craftsmanship Sequence, he understood its true nature: it was a creation-type sequence that could only fuse sacrificial offerings, not create life.
