Highway Survival for All: My RV's Infinite Evolution

Lin Hui glanced at the reactive armor on the front of the RV, where a bone spike from a different species, "White Thorn," was embedded.

Just this one bone spur reduced the RV's defense by 2%.

Lin Hui didn't get out of the car to deal with it. Instead, he drove the RV to the corpse of the white thorn, activated the [Auto Pickup] function, and swept the pile of spoils into the storage space.

Then, his gaze fell on the main battle tank that had broken down.

This is a huge piece of fat meat!

Although the tracks were broken and the turret was damaged, the military-grade armor steel weighing over ten tons was real!

If we can break it down, we can get a lot more special steel in the other dimension!

Lin Hui parked the car next to the tank and was just about to give the "disassemble" command.

click -

A sharp metallic scraping sound suddenly rang out.

The hatch on top of the tank slowly opened a crack.

Immediately afterwards, a fair hand reached out and laboriously pushed open the hatch.

A girl wearing a cotton-padded coat and with her face covered in grease smeared crawled out of there in a disheveled state.

She was coughing violently, clearly suffocating in the sweltering tank.

"Cough...cough cough..."

The girl looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. She looked up and her eyes met Lin Hui's inside the RV.

"Are there still people alive in the car?"

This was unexpected by Lin Hui.

He originally thought that the people inside had long been killed by the white thorn or starved to death.

The girl's gaze swept over the imposing black heavy-duty RV parked in front of her, and the still-heating machine gun on its roof, before finally settling on the slain Tier 3 White Thorn. A flicker of shock crossed her eyes.

"Did you kill that Tier 3 mutant?"

"You are... Lin Hui?"

She had seen the full-screen announcement as well, and she was surprised that the player who received the full-screen announcement was so young.

Lin Hui sat in the driver's seat, wondering whether he should drive the other side out and then dismantle its tank.

The woman, supporting herself against the tank turret, managed to stand upright, her voice somewhat hoarse:

"My name is... Su Qingqian. Thank you for saving me."

Su Qingqian?

Lin Hui raised an eyebrow slightly.

The name sounds a little familiar.

I remember now, the player who traded his antibiotics for axe-gun bullets in the trading channel before, I think that was his name.

No wonder he was able to escape from the abandoned arsenal; he was driving a tank!

"You're welcome."

Lin Hui's voice remained indifferent, showing no intention of getting off the bus.

"I only wanted to kill that Tier 3 mutant, and I also took a liking to your tank."

"Since you're still alive, I won't dismantle you."

After saying that, Lin Hui was about to shift gears and leave.

To dismantle a vehicle, its owner must die. Su Qingqian is still alive, so I cannot dismantle it.

Although killing the opponent allows you to dismantle the tank.

But to kill someone for materials.

He can't do it yet.

In the apocalypse, resources are important, but you must also hold onto your conscience, or you will one day become a walking corpse that kills people!

Seeing that Lin Hui was about to leave, Su Qingqian became anxious.

"Wait! Don't go!"

Disregarding her image, she slid off the tank, staggered to the front of the RV, and spread her arms to block it.

"My tank is broken! The tracks are broken, and the drive shaft is gone! I can't move it at all!"

"Please, give me a ride! I can pay you!"

Lin Hui stepped on the brake and looked down at her.

At this moment, although Su Qingqian's face was covered in oil and she looked like a little kitten, her eyes were exceptionally bright. They did not show the pleading of a weakling, but rather an attitude of equal negotiation.

"remuneration?"

Lin Hui smiled and tapped his fingers lightly on the steering wheel.

"What kind of reward do you think you can offer me?"

"I have no shortage of food, water, or all-purpose fuel..."

"If you want to exchange your body or your beauty..." Lin Hui looked her up and down. "Sorry, I don't need a pretty face."

Su Qingqian bit her lip and whispered.

"I'm not just a pretty face!"

Su Qingqian took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind.

"I've awakened my 'Specialization'!"

"Specialization?" Lin Hui murmured the word repeatedly. He had previously seen the four major guilds recruiting players who had awakened "Specializations" on the regional channel.

What exactly is specialization?

At this moment, Su Qingqian showed the system panel to Lin Hui.

Name: Su Qingqian

Specialization: Instrumentation (Level 1)

[Ability Description: Possesses an innate affinity for mechanical structures, making them a natural-born mechanic. Significantly improves the efficiency of vehicle repair, modification, and disassembly.]

"Specialization in medical instruments?"

Lin Hui's eyes finally showed a slight change.

This specialization... is quite interesting.

Seeing that Lin Hui was interested, Su Qingqian immediately pressed her advantage.

She looked at the bone spikes on the reactive armor on the front of the RV and said:

"Your RV's defenses have been damaged, but I can fix them!"

Su Qingqian walked to the front of the RV and pointed to the dent that had just been corroded by the white thorns.

"This Tier 3 alien toxin is persistent. If left untreated, it will slowly seep into the armor, and this plate will be ruined in three days."

As she finished speaking, a flash of light appeared in her hand, and a toolbox materialized there.

Then, she took a wrench and a bottle of unidentified spray and fiddled with the dent a few times.

sizzle.

A puff of white smoke rose up.

The pit that was originally bubbling with green light quickly dried up, and after she tapped it a few times with a wrench, it regained its metallic luster!

[Note: Vehicle defense has been restored to 100%.]

Lin Hui was somewhat surprised when he saw the system notification.

This skill is indeed far superior to those "mechanics" who only know how to tighten screws.

Moreover, as the monsters encountered become stronger, vehicle damage will become more frequent.

He doesn't know how to fix cars either.

A top-notch mechanic's logistics... sounds pretty good, doesn't it?

"You've got some skills."

Lin Hui nodded, but did not open the door immediately. Instead, he pointed to the broken-down tank.

"Consider the tank as payment."

Su Qingqian sighed and said, "No problem."

The tank's core is damaged; she can repair it, but she lacks the materials.

Lin Hui disassembled the tank and obtained 150 units of special steel and 30 sets of electronic components.

Click.

The RV's heavy armored door finally popped open a crack.

"Get in the car."

Fearing that Lin Hui might change his mind, Su Qingqian quickly climbed onto the stepping stone.

however.

The moment she climbed into the carriage, she froze instantly.

It's just like……

It was like taking a single step from hell into heaven.

The car doors were closed, shutting out the cold wind and stench from outside.

A warm, pleasant heat wave swept over me; it was a comfortable 26 degrees Celsius.

The air didn't have the nauseating stench of blood typical of wasteland; instead, it carried a faint, refreshing lemon scent.

This place won't be like the cramped, confined, and oil-smelling compartments of a tank.

What unfolded before her eyes was a spacious and bright living area.

Genuine leather booth sofas, clean and tidy floors, and even a water dispenser that's steaming hot!

On the table next to them, there was a half-empty can of cola and a torn bag of potato chips!

Su Qingqian looked down at her oily hands, then at the environment that resembled a five-star hotel.

She felt like her brain was short-circuiting.

"Was the life I was living before... even human?"

Lin Hui sat in the driver's seat, looking at Su Qingqian's blank expression through the rearview mirror, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Stop spacing out.

"Go take a shower and wash off all that oil. I don't like the smell of gasoline in the car."

"Take...a bath?"

Su Qingqian stared wide-eyed at the separate shower room with a frosted glass door in the corner.

"You can even take a shower here?!"

Lin Hui didn't answer, but silently shifted into Drive and continued driving.
