Doomsday Sequence Caravan: I Have a Mechanical Heart

The sound of the bowstring vibrating instantly attracted the attention of the strange creatures, who roared and pounced towards him.

Especially the gray-white boy, whose originally small cherry-like mouth stretched all the way to his ears, revealing two rows of deep white teeth, like saw teeth, which was extremely frightening.

But the next moment, the arrow Su Mu fired pierced through its body, carrying it backward a short distance.

Before it could hit the ground, a ball of blue flame emerged from the arrow hole, completely engulfing it in less than a second, leaving only a few mournful screams echoing in the air.

In just a few moments, it was burned to ashes, leaving only a few purple specks of light floating there.

Seeing this, Su Mu breathed a heavy sigh of relief. His arrow was indeed powerful, and could even kill him with a single shot.

Although these strange creatures before us are only the lowest level of wandering monsters, their strength should not be underestimated.

Among the wandering monsters, the larger the size, the stronger they are. Although these wandering monsters are all small, they are not so easy to deal with.

Even if one awakens a sequence ability and becomes a Yellow-rank transcendent, it will still take some effort to deal with these wandering monsters.

Without further hesitation, Su Mu picked up his bow and arrow and fired several arrows in quick succession.

He killed the several strange creatures that pounced at him one after another, leaving only those purple light spots floating in the air.

Su Mu pedaled his tricycle to the purple light spots, used his Sequence Power to sense them, and found no evil aura, only pure energy. He couldn't help but guess, "This should be the primordial power required by the Mechanical Heart."

But he hesitated for a moment before raising his hand to try to absorb it.

As his fingertips touched the purple dots, the mechanical heart within him suddenly emitted a faint suction force, directly absorbing all the purple dots in front of him.

He then felt the mechanical heart become more energetic, and a small portion of that energy flowed back into his body, improving his condition.

At the same time, the image of the mechanical heart wanting to advance to level two appeared in his mind: 5/1000 energy.

In other words, he needs to kill more than 300 of these wandering monsters before his Mechanical Heart can advance to level two.

Seeing this, Su Mu was somewhat annoyed; the required quantity was a bit too much. However, he didn't dwell on it further and quickly absorbed the remaining strange essence.

Energy value display: 32/1000

The power within the Mechanical Heart had increased considerably, and the energy flowing back into his body made him feel a warm sensation, with his muscles and bones continuously strengthening.

"We've accumulated quite a bit of energy now." Su Mu looked at the railing not far from the roadside. "Why don't we take this opportunity to conjure up another pistol?"

He pedaled his tricycle to the iron railing and placed his hand on it. As a blue light appeared, the iron railing rapidly transformed, turning into a Desert Eagle, a silencer, and two magazines of bullets in just a few seconds.

He fiddled with the pistol for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and quickly checked the energy value of the Mechanical Heart: 32/1000. Seeing that it hadn't decreased, he was relieved. He also understood that this should be equivalent to the Mechanical Heart's upgrade experience points and wouldn't be affected by the energy he consumed.

He tucked the Desert Eagle into his belt and put the bullets in his pocket. Remembering that the food and water he had collected were insufficient and wouldn't last more than a few days, he thought, "I forgot about that."

"Since we have a weapon that can destroy the strange creatures."

"Then I might as well take advantage of the fact that it's not dark yet and quickly gather some more food here."

"Otherwise, there won't be anywhere to collect them later."

He abandoned his tricycle by the roadside, used his resource sensing ability, and quickly found a place with food and water. He grabbed his crossbow, emptied the food and drinks from his backpack into the back of the tricycle, and hurried there.

A minute later, there were two loud bangs as arrows shot out. Moments later, Su Mu rushed out of a shop with a backpack full of food and water on his back.

Upon returning, he tossed his backpack and crossbow into the back of the cart, pedaled the tricycle out of town, glanced at Che Yin on the ground, and then gave chase.

An hour and a half has passed since the convoy left, and they have traveled at least seven or eight kilometers.

There was less than an hour left until dark.

So he had to pedal really hard if he wanted to catch up with the convoy before dark.

It's not that something strange will definitely appear when it gets dark, but rather that a peculiar gray mist will appear after dark, and once you get caught in it, you will lose your way.

It's practically impossible for him to find another convoy.

The reason he continued to follow the convoy was that he didn't know where the lighthouse was; only those who had awakened the extraordinary sequence of the Fireseed Pioneers would know.

As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, the surrounding air grew increasingly cool, and even gray mist began to appear in the fields on both sides of the road.

Su Mu's expression grew increasingly anxious. "How did they get away so fast?"

A few minutes later, he rounded a hill and saw faint car lights in the distance. His anxious expression eased. "Phew---, finally caught up."

Although I felt more relaxed, I didn't slow down my pedaling speed, because the gray fog on both sides of the road was getting thicker and thicker, and it was even starting to swell onto the road.

A few more minutes passed, and he finally caught up with the hikers at the back of the convoy.

He slowed down and followed behind, cycling as he recovered his strength.

What puzzled him was that it was almost dark, yet the convoy showed no sign of stopping to rest, and their pace of travel did not seem to slow down.

A moment later, the hikers behind him spotted Su Mu riding a tricycle and were all quite shocked. "You're still alive!"

"I just came out a little later," Su Mu said casually. "It's not like I didn't come out at all."

The two thin men also looked over, a greedy glint in their eyes. The burly man, holding his wooden stick, coldly shouted, "I didn't expect you to be so lucky, you even managed to get a tricycle."

"But now it's ours."

"Get out of here right now."

"Or I'll blow your head off."

A cold glint flashed in Su Mu's eyes. Did they really think he was still the same as before? Without saying a word, he reached for the pistol at his waist, pointed it at the two burly men, and said, "Get out of my way."

"Take one more step closer, and I'll shoot you dead."

The burly man's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously stopped in his tracks.

"Who are you trying to scare?" the thin man shouted from behind the burly man. "There aren't any handguns around these days. And even if there were, your gun probably wouldn't be loaded."

"Then you can try." Su Mu pointed the dark muzzle of his gun at the gaunt man and said coldly.

If it weren't for the fact that killing is prohibited in the motorcade, he would have shot them both long ago.

However, if those two really dare to snatch it, he won't be polite!
