Doomsday Sequence Caravan: I Have a Mechanical Heart

Upon hearing Ling Hao's words, Su Mu turned and left without the slightest hesitation. Then, as if remembering something, he asked Ling Hao...

"Did An Xin and Yu Yao go back?"

"No, not at all." Ling Hao shook his head, his expression extremely solemn. "I'm looking for them too."

Then, he shouted loudly at the ordinary people who were still searching for supplies on the street, "Get back to the convoy right now!"

"Leave immediately in three minutes."

"No exceptions after the expiration date!"

Those people were shocked when they heard Ling Hao's words, and couldn't understand why he was leaving so suddenly in less than twenty minutes.

Even if there are strange occurrences, Ling Hao and his team can handle them.

Some people dared not linger here and hurried toward the convoy outside the town.

Some people, clinging to a sliver of hope, continued walking back, hoping to gather more supplies, since they hadn't collected much in such a short time and wanted to make a final push out of the town.

Su Mu and Ling Hao continued deeper into the town to search for An Xin and the other person.

"I also suddenly sensed this crisis," Ling Hao added, "which is why I rushed over to warn you."

"Suddenly sensed it?" Upon hearing this, Su Mu immediately realized something. The strange creature beneath the stone well might have already mastered the ability to evade detection.

"Although I don't know what kind of monster this is," Ling Hao continued, "it's definitely not an ordinary wandering monster."

"Isn't that the Lord's Deception?" Su Mu said.

"No." Ling Hao shook his head. "If it were a lord's trick, we would be dead by now."

"It should be a strange entity that is about to evolve into a Lord-level strange entity."

"Alright." Su Mu was frustrated; this still meant they could only run for their lives. "By the way, where's Cheng Jun?"

"Cheng Jun is loading supplies," Ling Hao said. "We must leave immediately once we leave the town."

Just then, An Xin and Yu Yao appeared deeper into the town. Each of them carried a large bag on their back and a sack in their hand, clearly having collected quite a bit of food. They were walking along, chatting and laughing, unaware of the danger approaching.

Ling Hao waved to them hurriedly and shouted, "Come back quickly, we have to leave right away!"

"Didn't we say we were going to stay here for an hour?" Yu Yao and An Xin walked over, somewhat puzzled. "It hasn't been that long."

"We can't stay here any longer." Before Ling Hao could finish speaking, a loud bang suddenly came from the direction of Ishii, followed by a roar like muffled thunder.

Su Mu and the others quickly looked in that direction and saw more than a dozen tentacles suddenly shoot into the air, flailing wildly.

"Hurry, it's coming out!" Ling Hao's face turned pale, and he rushed towards the convoy on the west side of the town.

Su Mu, An Xin, and Yu Yao also left quickly.

However, An Xin's physique was only that of an ordinary person, so she was much slower. In addition, she was carrying a lot of things, so she was quickly left behind.

Seeing this, Su Mu turned around and ran over to An Xin, saying, "Excuse me."

"Huh?" An Xing was stunned for a moment, but before she could say anything, Su Mu grabbed her waist and carried her on his shoulder as easily as if she were a chick.

He grabbed her things and ran quickly forward.

An Xin didn't say anything, her face as red as an apple. Although she felt a little embarrassed, she was mostly touched.

The fact that Su Mu turned back to save her at such a critical moment showed that he cared about her. Thinking of this, her face flushed even more.

Yu Yao also turned back and reached out to Su Mu, saying, "Give me all the bags and stuff you're carrying."

"Okay," Su Mu replied, handing her the snakeskin bag in his right hand.

They had just arrived at the entrance of the alley when a huge, muffled thunderclap suddenly came from the depths of the alley. Immediately afterwards, a huge figure nearly twenty meters tall climbed out of the stone well.

It looks like an octopus-man, with a dozen or twenty tentacles growing around its neck, constantly wriggling, dripping with a foul-smelling slime.

It looks extremely disgusting and terrifying.

Even Su Mu, upon seeing this, couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart, let alone Yu Yao and An Xin. An Xin, in particular, was so frightened that she let out a scream and tightly hugged Su Mu's waist.

"This is probably a trick by the lord," Yu Yao exclaimed, quickening her pace even further.

"No," came Ling Hao's heavy voice from ahead, "but it's close to the level of a lord's trick."

"Hopefully we can escape successfully."

"Damn it, how unlucky can I be?" Yu Yao couldn't help but curse. "We finally found a decent town, and it turns out there's such a huge thing hidden here."

"Ling Hao." Su Mu thought of something, "If we escape from here, we can drive away."

"Will this big guy keep following us?"

"No." Ling Hao was silent for a moment. "It hasn't yet reached the level of a Lord and needs time to improve."

"If we can escape this town, our chances of survival are very high."

At that moment, the eerie creature let out a deafening roar and charged towards them at high speed. Each step it took covered ten or twenty meters, causing the ground to tremble slightly, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Su Mu was startled. This speed was extraordinary. Before they could escape, the monster would catch up and devour them. They had to find a way to stop it.

His gaze swept over the rusty cars parked by the roadside, and he immediately noticed something. He quickly told An Xin, "I'll put you down now, and you follow them and keep running outside."

"I'll stop that big guy."

"Otherwise, none of us will be able to get out."

"Be careful," An Xin nodded and gave a word of advice.

After putting An Xin down, he ran to the nearest cars, placed his hand on them, and within a second or two, the blue light covered all the cars.

Then the vehicles began to transform rapidly, quickly turning into a spear as thick as a person and twenty or thirty meters long.

Su Mu couldn't lift the spear at all, so he could only take advantage of the opportunity when it rapidly transformed to attack the strange creature.

Just as the spear tip was about to pierce the strange creature's chest, the creature suddenly swayed its body, narrowly avoiding Su Mu's spear attack.

Su Mu was startled, not expecting it to be so big and react so quickly.

The eerie creature roared angrily at Su Mu, and several tentacles quickly coiled around him.

But he did not retreat. With a serious expression, he continued to activate the mechanical heart energy within his body, causing the spear to quickly transform into a huge shield six or seven meters high, which stood in front of him.

They managed to block the attack from the tentacles in time.

Suddenly, Cheng Jun, who had transformed into a giant, rushed over and shouted, "Step back, let me handle this!!!"

As he spoke, he had already arrived in front of Su Mu, reached out and grabbed the huge shield, and smashed it hard against the strange creature.
