Doomsday Sequence Caravan: I Have a Mechanical Heart

"I understand." Upon hearing this, Su Mu's expression became more serious.

"Of course, I will try my best to change direction and shake them off." Ling Hao thought for a moment, then added, "Fighting is only a last resort."

"Understood." Su Mu nodded slightly, then asked with some curiosity, "Your sequence can still sense those strange auras?"

"It's not that I can sense a strange aura," Ling Hao shook his head, "it's a sense of crisis."

"The only things that can pose a crisis to us right now are the bizarre and unpredictable ones."

"I see." Su Mu said with a smile, "No wonder you're a Fireseed Pioneer, a natural leader of the team."

"Alright, stop praising me." Ling Hao couldn't help but smile. "We still need everyone's joint efforts to have any hope of reaching the lighthouse."

"I'm going ahead now, ready to leave."

Su Mu responded and sat down on the tricycle.

At this moment, a very beautiful woman walked out from behind the convoy. She walked with a seductive gait, like a snake spirit. Although her clothes were quite tattered, they made her look even more sexy.

The woman approached Su Mu, winked at him, and said, "Handsome, can I travel with you?"

"No." Su Mu frowned and refused decisively.

"Handsome, I can do anything!" The woman said provocatively, smiling slightly, seemingly very confident in her charm.

"What's it to me?" Su Mu waved her hand dismissively. "Go find whoever you want and don't bother me here."

"You." Seeing Su Mu's repeated rejections, the woman felt somewhat embarrassed. After a moment of silence, she said in a delicate, aggrieved voice, "I'm just a fragile woman, how can you bear to refuse me?"

Su Mu was also getting a little irritated. Without saying anything more, he drew the pistol from his waist and pointed it at her. "If you don't leave, I'll send you away now."

The woman turned pale with fright when she saw the dark muzzle of the gun. She didn't dare to say another word and left in a panic.

Cheng Jun came to his side, looked at the departing woman's back, then looked at Su Mu, and said with a smile, "You were right to refuse. This woman is just a public bus."

"I wonder how many men she's slept with."

"She even tried to seduce Ling Hao."

"However, Ling Hao kicked him off the car."

"And what about you?" Su Mu asked him jokingly.

"I don't like women like that," Cheng Jun quickly shook his head. "I like little girls."

"I didn't realize that." Su Mu was quite surprised, after all, Cheng Junzhe was quite big, at least 1.9 meters tall and weighing at least 200 kilograms.

"Hehe." Cheng Jun grinned, "So, what kind of woman do you like?"

"Me?" Su Mu thought for a moment, then said, "A quiet woman."

"A pure and innocent beauty?" Cheng Jun smiled, leaned closer to Su Mu and whispered, "We have one in our convoy. I'll introduce you to her later."

"No, please." Su Mu quickly waved his hand, "I'm too busy taking care of myself right now, I don't have the time for that."

"Haha." Cheng Jun laughed twice, and was about to say something when the horn on Ling Hao's car blared, "Ready to go."

Cheng Jun didn't say anything more, greeted Su Mu, and went to the SUV in front.

Around noon

Although it is already late September, it is still very hot.

Su Mu pedaled his tricycle somewhat weakly, thinking to himself, "I need to find some metal materials quickly to upgrade this tricycle."

"Otherwise, it's too tiring."

"I don't know when the team will take a break."

As he was deep in thought, a frantic voice suddenly came from the loudspeaker in front of him: "Attention everyone, a sandstorm is approaching."

"All drivers, drive your cars quickly to the bottom of the hill ahead and form a large circle."

"Say it again..."

Su Mu quickly stood up and looked in the direction the wind was blowing. He could vaguely see a dark yellow line at the edge of his vision. He took a deep breath, and without further hesitation, he kicked off with all his might.

I rode towards the place mentioned in the loudspeaker.

Everyone else panicked as well, fear spreading rapidly through the crowd. No longer caring about the order of the convoy, they hurriedly rushed forward.

Some people accidentally fell, and within moments their bodies were covered in footprints.

Screams, curses, and shouts rose and fell in waves.

Although Su Mu had been walking at the front of the group, he was almost the last to arrive at the sheltered gathering point.

Under the direction of Ling Haocheng and others, the cars had already formed one circle after another.

Su Mu squeezed his tricycle between the two vehicles, picked up his backpack, and walked towards the center of the circle.

Those with cars stayed inside, while the forty or fifty people on bicycles, tricycles, and those on foot gathered in the very center of the circle. Whether they could withstand the approaching sandstorm was up to fate.

As soon as Su Mu arrived, Cheng Jun pulled him into his RV. "Come on in."

This time, Su Mu didn't stand on ceremony and followed him up.

With a bang, Cheng Jun closed the car door, and the noise outside instantly decreased significantly.

Su Mu sat down on the sofa in the living room and looked out the window. The wind was starting to pick up, and the flying sand and gravel were hitting the window with a pattering sound.

Before he could speak, he heard Cheng Jun sigh. He then asked,

"What's wrong?"

"This sandstorm will delay us for at least several hours," Cheng Jun said, his gaze fixed intently outside. "It might even mean we won't be able to continue our journey until tomorrow."

"In that case, the probability of us being caught up by those monsters behind us is even greater."

"Even if we manage to kill it by sheer luck, there will likely be a lot of ordinary people killed or injured."

"There's nothing we can do about it." Su Mu sighed softly upon hearing this. "Who told us to be so unlucky as to encounter such a natural disaster?"

The two fell silent for a moment, neither speaking, quietly watching the raging sandstorm outside the window.

Su Mu thought of the strange things he might be about to face. He glanced at the crossbow with arm guards on his left hand. It only had a sword box and fifteen arrows.

If a large number of strange occurrences happen, his fifteen arrows will be a joke.

Therefore, he decided to take advantage of the present moment and find a way to produce more spare arrow quivers.

However, making arrow quiver requires metal, but he didn't have any extra metal on hand. After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Cheng Jun and asked, "Cheng Jun, do you have any unused steel materials here?"

"I don't have any here." Cheng Jun shook his head, then suddenly remembered something, "Oh right, Yu Yao and the others had some steel pipes in their car."

"It's for Anxin to use for self-defense."

"I wonder if she could give up some of it."

"I'll go ask." Su Mu didn't hesitate and walked out of the RV.

"I'll go with you." Cheng Jun quickly followed.
