Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 226 Guiding Fate! Fully Armed!

Chu Sheng and the others were already used to Lu Guan's dream, but Wang Meng and Fang Hong had rather strange expressions.

Although it is the end of the world now, it will only last for less than a year. They are all survivors of the civilized era, so how could they not know what the cemetery mentioned in Lu Guankou is?

“This…this is indeed a good idea,” Wang Meng said, standing next to Fang Hong, while searching for the right words.

After Lu Guan advanced to Sequence Seven, the group chatted for a few more minutes and then left.

No one asked Lu Guan what benefits he gained or what new abilities he acquired after being promoted to Sequence Seven.

These things are considered secrets of a sequence ability user. Unless someone is mentally unstable, they generally won't try to find out what the other person's abilities are.

Just like how the team members knew that Chu Sheng's ability was to create sacrificial objects, Hui's ability to calculate celestial secrets was shown before, An Xi's ability was the power of Geng metal, and Zhu Qing could enlarge to amplify his combat power, and so on.

Knowing the type of ability and having a general idea is enough; delving deeper only leads to enmity.

No one wants their abilities to be completely known by others.

There are no fools among those who have survived the apocalypse.

There may be fools who awaken the sequence, but these fools will gradually become less foolish under the subtle influence of the advice of those around them who are not fools.

Those fools who refuse to listen to advice usually die halfway through.

If the whole team is full of idiots.

The fate of the convoy that Chu Sheng and his group destroyed was a prime example.

However, to be honest, that convoy wasn't particularly stupid. After all, they had a prophecy sequence that could spy on the other side's information and could also disguise themselves.

It can only be said that encountering Chu Sheng and his group was extremely unlucky.

After all, there are likely to be quite a few caravans that rob other caravans in the apocalypse.

After watching Lu Guan's successful promotion, Hui and Fang Hong returned to the vicinity of the bus.

Because of Ah Xin's ability to cover the area, even in the midst of a heavy downpour, when flashes of white light occasionally streak across the sky, it doesn't have a significant impact on the convoy.

So Chu Sheng simply took the tables and chairs out of the Netherworld Light cargo box.

Upon seeing the tables and chairs brought out, Hui and Fang Hong immediately huddled together to copy each other's logs and diaries.

While copying Fang Hong's racing team log, Hui asked casually, "Do you know what kind of strange things happen in this place?"

"Strange?" Fang Hong was taken aback, stopped copying, and turned to look at him in confusion.

"What's weird?"

Hearing her words, Hui stopped copying and, thinking she hadn't understood, explained in detail: "It's the weird type."

"Generally speaking, different places will have different kinds of eeriness."

"For example, in places with water, although there will still be normal eerie phenomena, there will be more eerie phenomena that resemble fish."

"In arid or waterless areas, such eerie creatures with fish-like features are less common, or even not seen at all."

"There must be quite a few strange characteristics among the fish during this extreme rainstorm, right?"

As Hui spoke, although it was a question, his tone was full of certainty.

"However, this place was flooded by torrential rain and was not a body of water before, so my guess may be wrong, but there is definitely more of one type of eeriness than the others."

He said confidently, looking at Fang Hong and waiting for her answer.

Upon hearing his words, Fang Hong fell silent.

Hui felt a little strange, and a bizarre feeling welled up in his heart. At the same time, a bold idea appeared in his mind.

Swallowing hard, Hui's voice trembled slightly, "You guys didn't encounter anything... strange?!"

"Um"

Under Hui's previous actions, Fang Hong had sworn an oath to the sequence. Although she didn't know if the oath would actually work, she didn't intend to break it and told the truth: "We really haven't encountered anything strange."

"So there's nothing strange about this place."

"No!" Captain Hui swallowed hard. "There are eerie things everywhere!"

"Even here, it's no exception!"

"And we encountered something strange before we met you."

"What methods did you use to avoid encountering anything strange?"

His eyes began to light up as he looked at Fang Hong.

Before copying down the logs and diaries about Fang Hong's racing team, he had already read them once and knew that they didn't have the same abilities as Ah Xin, nor did they have the ability to make the woman in the walled building less noticeable.

If nothing strange happened under these circumstances, then this thing must be very important.

Perhaps we can find something within that wouldn't be detected by the supernatural even by ordinary people. Hearing Captain Hui's words, Fang Hong shook her head with a wry smile, "What methods can we possibly use?"

"To be honest, it's not just me, everyone in our team feels that there's nothing strange about this place."

“We’ve been here for four months and haven’t encountered anything strange.”

"You know my abilities, the Destiny Sequence. My main ability is to communicate with destiny. As a guide, I only communicate with destiny and lead the way through the guidance of destiny."

"Fate guides me and tells me how to move forward, but I don't know what lies ahead or what will happen."

"Perhaps it's fate that our team has never encountered anything strange."

When Hui mentioned encountering something strange before their meeting, Fang Hong didn't believe he would lie to her about such a thing.

And to be honest, when she learned that there were strange things in this place, she wondered why she had never encountered anything strange.

“Fate?” Hui murmured, then sighed. “Your concept sequence is indeed very strong.”

"It's alright." Fang Hong shook her head. Having exchanged logs and diaries, she naturally knew what the concept sequence Hui was talking about was.

Although she felt humiliated when the person in front of her made her swear an oath to the sequence at the beginning of the exchange, citing information asymmetry as the reason.

However, their team had been trapped in this extreme rainstorm for four months, and the information was indeed unequal. So, for the sake of the team's future arrangements, she prayed for fate. After receiving feedback, she still agreed to Hui's request.

After reading the logs and diaries that Hui had given her, she had to admit that although she needed to swear an oath to the sequence and be questioned by the other party, she could not hide anything outside of her own team sequence.

Even so, this time it was still a profit.

"If my sequence were really that strong, then I wouldn't be going through so much trouble without encountering a single monster."

"Before entering this place, we didn't know what the extraordinary materials on the strange creatures were for. Although we collected them, they were just taking up space."

"After entering this place, Qingqing can only protect one vehicle. Although this bus has a relatively large space, it is actually not very big because nearly twenty people eat, sleep and live inside."

"So in order to make room, we threw away most of our less important supplies."

“Back then, Qingqing didn’t have the same abilities as she does now. Making room for her was one reason, and reducing Qingqing’s burden was another.”

As Fang Hong spoke, a look of reminiscence crossed her face, and she sighed, "Only after losing those supplies did we finally have the right to survive in this place."

"Compared to you who have just entered this place, our team doesn't actually have much."

"That's why I didn't agree to your suggestion to organize a trade fair."

“Our team is no match for your team. All we have besides the clothes we’re wearing and a big pot is this car.”

As she spoke, she glanced at the bus behind her, sighed again, and then continued, "Even the food was fish, shrimp, and crabs that Qingqing caught from the water."

“I’ve read your logs and diaries before, so I know roughly what your team’s sequence capabilities are, and I also know your trading model.”

"But no matter how you look at it, our team is not qualified to make a deal with you."

Hui nodded and resumed copying, but his mouth didn't stop, "Maybe."

"But your ability is something many people dream of. It allows you to avoid the supernatural and even create the illusion that there is nothing supernatural about this place."

He paused for a moment, then resumed copying, saying, "If this gets out, I wonder how many people will want to recruit you into their teams."

"Especially the official torch relay bases."

Fang Hong shook her head, did not respond, and resumed her copying.

The next day.

Chu Sheng stepped out of the car amidst the light of the underworld and glanced at the world where there was no distinction between day and night. Outside, a torrential downpour was in full swing, but all the rain was blocked by Ah Xin's barrier.

Watching the waves crashing against the barrier, Chu Sheng stretched and then looked at a dark figure approaching the barrier.

The dark figure was getting closer and closer to the barrier, but Chu Sheng did not see any black energy on it. The outline of the dark figure reminded Chu Sheng of the azure dragon he had seen yesterday.

Even so, he did not let his guard down in the slightest. The dark gold armor instantly attached itself to his body, the Butcher was summoned, and the iron chains connected to the Nether Light instantly softened and contracted. At the same time, the Nether Light also transformed into the Nether Mech.

To Chu Sheng's left was a twenty-meter-tall Netherworld mech, and to his right was a butcher who was even more bizarre than the bizarre. He wore dark gold armor, carried a red and white bow, and held a similarly dark gold sword.

Fully armed, they looked at the dark figure approaching from not far away.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?!" The commotion at Chu Sheng's place instantly woke Zhu Qing, who was resting inside the car, and she jumped out of the fish car almost instantly.

Upon seeing Chu Sheng's appearance, the Netherworld Mech, and the Butcher, Zhu Qing, who had been feeling a bit sleepy, became clear-headed and opened the small water bottle in her pocket with remarkable speed, pouring water onto her combat uniform.

In the blink of an eye, Zhu Qing's size instantly increased to over thirty meters.

At the same time, he also saw the dark figure coming from outside the barrier, and his expression became much more serious.

The telescopic steel baton also transformed into a pole over fifty meters tall, which he held in his hand.
