Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 260 White Tiger Dagger

"An ordinary sacrificial offering," was Chu Sheng's assessment of it.

However, Chu Sheng was quite satisfied with this, after all, it was just a sacrificial object made of a piece of dark iron.

Based on the materials used, he could forge another twenty-seven or twenty-eight such daggers with the remaining dark iron.

What more could you want?
He was absolutely delighted!
However, what surprised and pleased him the most was not this, but the price of this sacrifice; his attention was drawn to the cost of its use.

This cost
Although this offering was not highly ranked and its abilities were rather mediocre, it effectively resolved his worries.

Why was he unwilling to arm ordinary people?

Isn't it because we're afraid they'll betray us?

The abilities of sacrificial offerings are incredibly diverse, encompassing all sorts of powers. However, if the cost of the offering is the same as that of the Ghostly Frost Dagger, then he doesn't need to worry about this issue.

Afterwards, some offerings can be given to ordinary survivors so that they can collect supplies and extraordinary materials.

This is very likely to be achieved.

After all, the Ghostly Frost Dagger is underwhelming, but it's uncertain whether it can be used to create other sacrificial objects in the future.

He, a Heavenly Craftsman with not very high combat power, can deal with the supernatural by relying on sacrificial offerings, and is even stronger than many combat-sequence ability users. Isn't that because he relies on the sacrificial offerings he created through fusion?

It is feasible for ordinary survivors to fight against the supernatural by using sacrificial offerings.

But not yet.

The convoy was migrating, and although they would sometimes stop to resupply along the way, the survivors could not find much, and they were not in any danger unless in extreme circumstances.

This idea can only be realized after things have settled down.

Holding the Ghostly Frost Dagger, Chu Sheng pondered deeply. He made up his mind that the next step was to see if the sacrificial objects he forged would come at the same price as the Ghostly Frost Dagger.

If so, then his idea could be realized.

Even more than that.

He could even produce a batch of forging hammers that could be imbued with extraordinary potential, and gather a group of people to work for him.

Just like the forging process of the Ghostly Frost Dagger.

At first, he just kept forging out dagger prototypes. These prototypes could be used after polishing, but they could only be considered semi-finished products.

He was enlightened by An Xi's words and then integrated his spiritual power.

It was only after spiritual power was integrated that it eventually transformed into a sacrificial offering.

This process can be replicated, or even used as an assembly line.

Seeing Chu Sheng deep in thought, holding the dagger, An Xi couldn't help but ask, "Chu Sheng, what are you thinking about?"

"How about this offering? Let me see it!" Her tone still carried a hint of excitement.

Although she didn't participate in the forging process, she had been watching Chu Sheng forge for the past few days, and she had long since immersed herself in it.

An Xi's voice pulled Chu Sheng back to reality. He glanced at her, and without thinking much, handed her the Youhan Dagger.

Taking the Cold Dagger, An Xi sensed the information and abilities emanating from it, and glanced at Chu Sheng with a somewhat strange expression.

"Can you arrange the price of the sacrifice yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Sheng shook his head helplessly; he knew what she meant.

"No."

"Although this price does seem to be something I arranged myself, I really can't change the price of the sacrifice."

"I suspect that all forged sacrificial offerings come at such a price, but I'll have to try it out later."

"I see." An Xi nodded, neither saying she believed it nor disbelieving it.

The next moment, a dazzling golden light appeared on An Xi's hand, and the power of Geng metal emerged, continuously flowing into the Youhan Dagger.

Upon seeing this, Chu Sheng frowned but said nothing.

A moment later, the golden light in An Xi's hand dissipated, and the Ghostly Frost Dagger remained the same as before, its dark color seemingly possessing an empty allure.

Then An Xi waved the dagger in her hand, and a golden light left a golden trail in the air along the edge of the cold dagger.

"This offering is wonderful!" An Xi exclaimed, admiring the dagger as if it were a treasure.

"It can actually store my Geng metal power, which can appear from the edge of the blade when needed to increase its sharpness, and can also leave Geng metal power in the place where it cuts."

"The key is that the wounds caused by this dagger will not heal naturally, and this ability becomes even more prominent when combined with the power of Geng metal!"

"This offering was made just for me!" An Xi said excitedly, then looked at Chu Sheng with sparkling eyes, "Chu Sheng, how about I have this?"

"I'll trade you a piece of extraordinary material of Sequence 8."

Chu Sheng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and was about to agree when An Xi continued, "The head of that Sequence 8 monster that you and I killed together was strange. I remember it dropped two extraordinary materials. We haven't split them yet. Originally, we were supposed to each take one, but now it's yours."

Chu Sheng: "." "Alright."

He deliberately didn't mention it, originally thinking that if An Xi didn't bring it up, he would pretend he forgot and then keep that extraordinary material for himself.

I never expected that she would remember it all this time.

“Very well, then this dagger is mine.”

"The name 'Ghostly Cold Dagger' doesn't sound good. From now on, let's call it 'White Tiger Dagger'."

Upon hearing the name An Xi had given the dagger, Chu Sheng's expression turned strange. He looked An Xi up and down, and remembering her hairless appearance, he couldn't help but sigh, "This name is very apt."

"Hmm?" An Xi was taken aback and frowned. She suspected that Chu Yi was implying something, but she had no evidence.

"Alright, now I'll enhance your Black Jade Bone Spear." Chu Sheng said, pressing his knuckles, which made a cracking sound.

An Xi picked up the scabbard that Chu Sheng had forged and tucked it along with the White Tiger Dagger into her waistband. Then she looked at Chu Sheng with expectant eyes.

Hui watched silently from the side, feeling that he shouldn't be there, but should be under the car.

On the other side, on the outskirts of the extreme rainstorm, a convoy stopped two kilometers outside the dark clouds.

Looking at the dark clouds overhead and the humid air in the distance, Li Feifei looked at Zhou Qi and the other two with a serious expression and said, "Let me confirm one more time, should we chase after them?"

"As we all know, the intelligence that Hui and his team gave us means that once we go in, our safety will drop significantly, and we might actually die."

"We've come this far, what other choice do we have?" Zhou Qi smiled bitterly. "The strange thing behind us is chasing us. If we go to either side, we'll be caught up sooner or later, and we'll also have to avoid this extreme rainstorm."

"Didn't you know the situation here from the surrounding wind?"

"Even the wind doesn't know how big the area covered by this extreme rainstorm is. Once we go to either side, we lose both directions."

“If we go to the left, we can only walk along the edge of the extreme rainstorm. Behind us is the eerie, and to the right is the coverage area of ​​the extreme rainstorm. If we encounter danger, we will be in a dilemma.”

"It's better to go in now than to be chased by the monsters and then flee in panic."

“Uncle Zhou is right,” Wei Haoran echoed from the side, and Qi Yu nodded in agreement.

Seeing the three people's statements, Li Feifei nodded. Since she was already here, her earlier inquiry was just to confirm things again.

She knew, of course, that there was no turning back now.

"In that case, let's get ready to set off!"

As she spoke, she looked at Zhou Qi and said, "Uncle Zhou, could you please modify the vehicle?"

“No problem!” Zhou Qi nodded in agreement.

He is a mechanical type, although not as overpowered as the mechanical type in the Mechanical City, and his abilities are not biased towards that direction, but converting several vehicles into ships is still not a problem for him.

“I don’t know what it’s like inside, but it should be similar to the sea. And it’s been raining heavily. It’s too dangerous to separate them. The survivors might all die if the boat capsizes. I’ll just convert all the cars into one boat.”

"The larger the ship, the more stable it is."

"it is good!"

Li Feifei and the other two had no objections to Zhou Qi's words and agreed immediately.

While they were discussing this, fifty kilometers away, within the area covered by extreme torrential rain, a strange creature, neither fish nor crocodile, with eyes all over its body and exuding the aura of Sequence Seven, was approaching them in the water.

Because it was in the water, this strange creature was not exposed to the waves on the surface, nor was it detected by the wind.

This creature was incredibly fast, swimming two kilometers in less than a minute.

The eyes on its body blinked from time to time, and occasionally stopped, as if it was savoring the taste of 'delicious food'.

A moment later, it stopped four kilometers away from Li Feifei's convoy, motionless in the water, its position unshaken by the swift current.

The water here is six meters deep, enough to completely conceal it.

The rapid current, the swirling mud and sand, and the dim sky made everything underwater difficult to see clearly.

It has a crocodile-like appearance and its habits seem to be similar to those of a crocodile, hunting by waiting for prey to come to it.

It has extremely high patience.

As a Sequence Seven anomaly, its intelligence, while not comparable to that of humans, is still on par with that of cats and dogs.

And so it waited underwater until the next day.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the second day that it began to move slowly underwater, and once it found a place, it stopped moving again.

Two kilometers away, a peculiar steel vessel, forty meters long, twelve meters wide, and eight meters deep in the water, was heading towards it.

Its position is directly in front of the ship.

It's like a hunter, patiently waiting for its prey. Once the prey enters its attack range, it will tear it apart with lightning speed.
