Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 50 The Evil of Human Nature

The next day.

The sun hung high in the sky, illuminating the entire world with its intense heat.

Chu Sheng held the steering wheel with one hand and placed the other hand on his forehead to shield his eyes from the sun.

Her scarlet eyes also appeared somewhat bewitching and eerie under the sunlight.

The convoy has been running non-stop since last night, and not only Chu Sheng, but everyone else in the convoy is exhausted.

Especially for those without cars, they have been walking from last night until noon today, carrying backpacks and luggage, and have now reached their limit.

But fearing they would fall behind the team, they could only force themselves to keep up with the pace.

Fortunately, the convoy wasn't going very fast, so if you walked a little faster, you could catch up.

Chu Sheng yawned, wiped away the tears that had welled up in his eyes from sleepiness, and decided that he would need to find a driver for him during this period of time.

Since I'm going to create a persona, it'll be different if I'm just doing it all by myself.

I thought about it silently, but I wasn't in a hurry.

At the very least, get yourself some insurance first.

Although he was preparing to change his persona, he still didn't trust anyone else.

At the very beginning of the apocalypse, he had also met people with sequence abilities.

That person was his neighbor, a very pretty girl, probably around twenty-two or twenty-three years old. Her family was probably well-off, and she had good values ​​and education from a young age.

She seemed to believe that with great power comes great responsibility, so at the very beginning of the apocalypse, she rescued several people in that unit of their building.

Although Chu Sheng did not know what sequence she had awakened, he had personally witnessed that the girl was able to kill two monsters with her fists at the beginning of the apocalypse.

Alone, unarmed, he fought two monsters in the apocalypse and killed them.

It doesn't look like an ordinary sequence at all.

He was fortunate to be neighbors with the girl. Before the apocalypse, the two had met a few times and exchanged greetings. So after the apocalypse, when the girl was running out of food at his house, she gave him a few packs of instant noodles.

At that time, Chu Sheng felt that there was genuine affection even in the apocalypse, and that the apocalypse wasn't all evil people like in novels.

But he soon changed his mind.

Seven days after the apocalypse, through communications that were still functioning, they learned that the supernatural beings could sense life, and that the cities had the most supernatural beings.

So, with the girl's help, the people in that unit collectively escaped, attempting to flee the city.

With the girl's help along the way, although there were some casualties, the journey was relatively smooth.

As soon as they escaped the city and arrived at a remote, abandoned factory on the outskirts, Chu Sheng watched helplessly as the people he was protecting ambushed and killed the girl.

At the time, he thought that having escaped the city, and with the girl's protection, things would get better and better for them.

But as soon as they left the city, several people silently stabbed the girl in the back.

Three or four people launched a sudden attack, each move deadly.

By the time Chu Sheng realized what was happening, the girl was already lying in a pool of blood.

Neck, back, chest, shoulders, and sternum.

All of them were wounds, penetrating wounds.

She didn't die in the apocalypse, nor did she die at the hands of the supernatural, but she died at the hands of the person she was protecting.

He felt like the sky had fallen.

Strange things have emerged in this apocalyptic world. There's a kind-hearted superhuman who's willing to protect ordinary people, but instead of being grateful, he kills them.

Only after it was completely confirmed that the girl was dead did Chu Sheng learn a piece of news from those people.

Those who consume the food that awakens superpowers will also awaken such extraordinary abilities.

Then Chu Sheng watched helplessly as they tried this method.

Those who did the dirty work ate the meat, while the others who were unaware of the situation drank the soup.

Chu Sheng was also given a bowl to hold soup. But he didn't touch it; it was at that moment that he lost all hope in humanity.

Inherent flaws.

People have never known what kindness or protection means.

They certainly won't be grateful.

They only think of themselves; gratitude and help are all meaningless to them.

After that, Chu Sheng parted ways with that group of people. Along the way, he encountered several caravans. Fortunately, the first caravan he encountered was not a slave caravan. Although he had to hand over some of the supplies he found, at least he could come and go freely.

After several transfers, he ended up in his current team.

He doesn't trust people, he doesn't trust emotions, and he doesn't even dare to trust self-interest.

Chu Sheng recalled everything that had happened since the apocalypse, his grip on the steering wheel tightened, and his crimson eyes swirled as his thoughts raced.

"Unless we have a sacrifice that can restrain a person or cause mutual destruction, we should not seek out our subordinates."

Chu Sheng murmured softly, then half-closed his eyes.

"boom!"

A collision sound rang out as Chu Sheng's raging truck bumped into an SUV. The slight impact made Chu Sheng instinctively floor the accelerator, followed by a roar.

"Boom~!"

The rampaging truck pushed the SUV in front of it forward until it crashed into Hui Ge's car at the very front, at which point Chu Sheng reacted and stepped on the brakes.

As soon as they stopped, An Xi jumped out of the passenger seat of the SUV in front of her, her voice filled with rage. "Chu Sheng!"

"What's wrong with you?!"

"Everyone stopped, and you stepped on the gas?!"

An Xi flung open the car door aggressively, looking incredibly fierce.

Chu Sheng coughed lightly, remembering his public persona, and said in a gentle tone, "An Xi, I'm sorry."

"I was thinking about something, and after hitting your car, I was a little stressed and subconsciously stepped on the gas. I'm really sorry."

Upon hearing his words, An Xi stared wide-eyed as if she had seen a ghost, pointing at him in disbelief and looking him up and down.

"Are you really Chu Sheng?"

In her memory, Chu Sheng was not like that at all.

If this were before, he would definitely have refuted me, and even tried to fool me, or even make me apologize to him.

Looking at An Xi's expression, Chu Sheng shook his head. "Of course it's me."

"I've thought it through recently. Even though it's the end of the world, as a human being, I still want to embrace the sunshine."

"I was too pessimistic before."

Upon hearing this, An Xi looked at him in disbelief for several more times, then ran off in a hurry.

Back in her car, Anxi patted the airport, looking terrified.

"Ah Xin, do you think it's possible for a ghost to possess someone?"

"The kind of thing you see on TV where someone manipulates another person from behind by standing on their tiptoes?" Ah Xin asked, puzzled. Wasn't An Xi supposed to be looking for trouble?
Why do you look so frightened when you come back?

She was puzzled, but still tried to reply, "I think so."

"Many of those filthy things are similar to ghosts, and even zombies have appeared. There must be some strange creatures that can possess people."

“That makes sense!” An Xi agreed.

"Let me tell you, I suspect that Chu Sheng is possessed by a strange entity."

As she spoke, she opened the car door again, "Ah Xin, be careful, I'm going to have that charlatan captain's fortune told."
