Apocalyptic Extraordinary Convoy, I'm really not weird!

The motorcycle sputtered and chugged, the riders crouched low, and enormous bundles were tied to the back seats.

More common were bicycles, jingling and clanging, with handlebars hanging from the front, crossbars strapped to the back, and back seats folded up.

Some people even strapped their front forks with stuff, making each bike look like a mobile shelf, bending the spokes and groaning under the weight as it moved.

Pedestrians have disappeared.

Su Ye recalled the pedestrians they had overtaken along the way.

Clearly, the team's current speed is no longer something that can be kept up with on foot for long.

Those who managed to stay were those who found a means of transportation in time.

At this moment, almost every vehicle in the convoy had its roof and window edges covered with scavenged supplies, which were tied and piled up wherever possible.

The lead armored personnel carrier turned off the road and drove into a flat area beside a riverbed, where the river was still flowing slowly.

The sound of wheels rolling over gravel gradually subsided, and Chen Shou's steady voice carried throughout the convoy through the loudspeaker on the roof:

"Attention everyone!

We'll rest here for today!

I expect to have two days off!

After a brief silence, cheers erupted, igniting the entire camp!

"Great! I can rest for two days!"

"Good heavens, we can actually rest by the river!!!"

Especially when people's eyes fell on the slowly flowing river next to them, many people showed an almost dreamlike smile.

Since the apocalypse, I've encountered rivers before, but they've either been dry riverbeds or not safe zones.

The convoy had never been able to set up camp safely in a relatively open area near a water source.

This means water can be obtained, although it's uncertain whether the water source is safe.

It can be washed, although it's uncertain whether there are any mutated living creatures in the water.

Even if Chen Shou reminded them that this was a safe zone, no one could guarantee that the creatures in the water would still be the same as before the apocalypse, or even if they hadn't turned into monsters.

My tense nerves relaxed a little at this moment.

People got off the bus and began setting up camp with a busy yet carefree attitude.

Su Ye sat in the back of the pickup truck, watching the scene gradually become lively.

His clothes were tattered from the battle with the horde of eerie bees, with only strips of cloth hanging from his body. The wounds on his exposed skin had all healed.

However, even after those serious injuries have healed, the wounds still retain marks of varying depths, though they are still healing.

Contrary to his disheveled appearance, his mental state was excellent. His eyes were bright, his breathing was steady, and the strange power flowing through his body made him feel energetic.

He waited until Chen Shou directed Lao Liu to set up the iconic marching tent next to the armored personnel carrier before jumping down from the truck bed and walking towards the tent on the gravel ground.

Lifting the curtain, Chen Shouzhen bent down and spread out a map on the simple table, then looked up at the sound.

Seeing that Su Ye was only wearing strips of cloth, yet exuded a powerful aura, he was clearly taken aback.

In his perception, the unique, cold, and purely eerie aura emanating from Su Ye had become even more solidified.

The part of him that is "human" is also full of vitality, and this contradictory combination seems unusually harmonious in Su Ye.

"Team Leader Chen."

Su Ye nodded in greeting.

Chen Shou suppressed his surprise and pointed to the folding chair beside him:

"sit."

He picked up a kettle, poured half a cup of steaming water, and pushed it in front of Su Ye.

"Drink some hot water."

Tell me, what exactly happened with that strange thing in the village?

Su Ye took the warm cup and, without any hesitation, sipped it.

His parched throat was moistened, and he organized his thoughts, describing it concisely:

"It is a huge, honeycomb-shaped monster that can release countless fist-sized, bee-shaped offspring with bizarre human faces."

The stinger of the offspring carries an extremely strong mental pain attack, while the main body of the hive has a bone spur that is even more toxic.

Once the offspring are shattered, they will dissipate and then reassemble within the hive, unless completely destroyed by special methods.

Chen Shou nodded thoughtfully, his finger unconsciously tapping the table:

"I see……

No wonder when I sensed it before, I always felt that the energy reaction of that target was sometimes vast and dispersed, and sometimes highly concentrated at one point, fluctuating erratically.

It turns out it's a model consisting of a main body and countless sub-bodies...

It's not easy for you to hold it off for four hours.

He changed the subject:

"This time we had a great harvest. The 4.2-meter van and the bread truck were basically full."

It mainly consisted of food, daily necessities, and gasoline obtained from gas stations.

"Once Lin Wei and Old Zhao have rested, we'll take stock and distribute the goods according to the agreement."

He leaned forward slightly, looking at Su Ye:

"As I said before, if you have the chance, try to get a car."

Now is the chance.

Besides the supplies, the vehicles themselves are also assets.

According to the team's rules, participants have the right to exchange these large tools that are captured first.

You can use a portion of the supplies you received this time to pay me in exchange for one of the vehicles.

Of course, if you don't like it, or don't want to change it for the time being, that's fine too.

Su Ye acted almost without hesitation.

He had already observed those two vehicles. Although the vans had a large load capacity, their fuel consumption was also high, which did not meet his needs.

Although vans are much smaller and have a lower load capacity than box trucks, they also have lower fuel consumption.

Moreover, it's more than enough for him right now, since he can't always get so many supplies.

"I want that bread truck."

Su Ye put down her water glass, her voice clear.

Chen Shou seemed unsurprised by his choice and nodded.

"OK.

The specific amount of supplies to be used will be determined after all supplies have been inventoried and distributed.

Let's do a more detailed calculation; you won't lose out.

"I understand, thank you, Captain Chen."

Su Ye nodded.

"Um,"

Chen Shou waved his hand.

"Go ahead, take a break and check on the condition of that car."

Since you've decided to take it, you should get familiar with it as soon as possible.

In this apocalyptic world, cars are more than just a means of transportation.

After each battle, when escaping for their lives, vehicles are a lifesaver.

Look, Lin Wei and Old Zhao are still recovering.

you···

Forehead!!!

You...

Chen Shou suddenly didn't know what to say. If you said Su Ye hadn't contributed anything, then his clothes made of strips of cloth and the marks left by the healing wounds beneath them...

All of this demonstrates that Su Ye was clearly fighting with his life on the line.

If those marks had appeared on his own body, he would probably have died a thousand or eight hundred times over. The dense marks made Chen Shou's heart pound with fear.

Su Ye didn't say anything, but simply got up, lifted the tent flap, and went outside.

The riverbank was bustling with activity and noise.

He ignored the gazes, whether overt or covert, and went straight back to Old Zhao's pickup truck.

He rummaged through the back of the truck and pulled out his electric scooter and backpack.

He pushed his cart, carried his bag, and walked to a section of the river a little further away from the crowd at the camp.

There were several large rocks here, rounded by the water flow. He chose a flat one to sit on and leaned his electric scooter against it.

The river flowed slowly before him. He opened his backpack and took out a vacuum-packed bag of braised beef and a bottle of mineral water.

Upon opening the packaging, the aroma of spiced beef wafted out. He tore off a small piece, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly, feeling the fibers break down in his teeth and the salt and protein dissolve on his taste buds.

They ate slowly and attentively, taking bites of meat and sips of water with mineral water.

While eating, he communicated with the [alien] sequence in his mind.

The moment the thought of advancing to the next level arose, cold, clear information returned:
