Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 257: Never Awaken

The migratory life was like a ship without a harbor. Even with Squad Leader Chu Che's Concealment Barrier, they could only stay in one place for three days at most.

The original plan to gather supplies after three days had been arranged.

Squad Leader Chu indicated that the plan was postponed, as unforeseen circumstances had arisen in the town previously designated for supply gathering.

The convoy had been traveling in the Light Rain for far too long.

It had to be said that human adaptability was truly terrifying.

Many people had actually started to get used to this lifestyle, even finding it somewhat agreeable.

At least they didn't have to worry about next month's mortgage or car loan.

Nor did they have to worry about failing to meet this month's sales target and getting chewed out by the boss.

They didn't even have to worry about getting a failing grade on the final exam and facing a parental tag-team beating at home.

The faces of the survivors also began to show more peaceful smiles.

Of course, some people were exceptions.

Like Zhou Xiaoxiao.

Ever since this woman became Ding Dong's disciple, she had been acting like a maniac.

Every day when she practiced her fist techniques in the Light Rain, she looked like a lunatic.

Apart from eating and taking care of the seed stock, this woman spent almost all her time practicing her fist techniques.

Thanks to her maniacal dedication.

Her fist techniques now actually carried a bit of imposing force.

Even Ding Dong couldn't help but praise, "Starting to practice fist techniques at your age and reaching this level is truly remarkable!"

Perhaps because Zhou Xiaoxiao had practiced dance since childhood, she had her own understanding of fist techniques.

Coupled with the drastic changes in her life, her fist techniques developed a certain resilience.

Zhou Xiaoxiao wiped the sweat and rain from her forehead, calming her breathing slightly before asking earnestly, "Master, when will I be able to awaken as a Superhuman if I keep practicing like this?"

The pleased expression on Ding Dong's face stiffened slightly. After a moment of silence, she said seriously, "When I accepted you as my disciple, I said I couldn't determine when you would awaken!"

"You might even never awaken at all!"

"You wanted to learn fist techniques, I'm just telling you what I know. The rest is up to fate!~"

Ding Dong's breathing quickened a few times before she lowered her head and said, "I understand, Master!~"

Ding Dong thought for a moment and still added, "Our understanding of Sequence Superpowers is still too limited. Perhaps if you keep practicing like this, you'll awaken one day!"

"As long as you do something, there's always some hope. If you don't do it, there's never any hope!"

A bit more determination appeared in Zhou Xiaoxiao's eyes. She clasped her fists towards Ding Dong, "Thank you for your guidance, Master!"

Ding Dong thought again and finally voiced the idea in her heart, "There are five Superhumans in the convoy. You could go ask the others. Maybe you'll find an answer."

Zhou Xiaoxiao's eyes brightened slightly, "I... can I do that?"

Actually, Zhou Xiaoxiao had long had this idea.

The reason she hadn't acted on it was naturally due to many concerns.

One of them was the fear of displeasing her master.

Now that her master had said this, Zhou Xiaoxiao naturally had fewer reservations.

"Go ahead. You need to find the answer to this yourself. I can't completely help you with it!"

Zhou Xiaoxiao happily rushed over and linked arms with her master, her face beaming with joy.

In the Light Rain.

The Pink-haired Girl finished her Fire Dragon technique with a sword flourish before settling into a still stance.

Zhou Xiaoxiao had been standing to the side for a very, very long time.

"What did you come to ask me?"

"Miss... Zhou, I wanted to ask you, how did you awaken back then?"

Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at the Pink-haired Girl with an expectant face, hoping her answer would give her some inspiration.

The Pink-haired Girl's face darkened.

Her awakening came from eating a Demon Fruit, but how the Demon Fruit came about...

The Pink-haired Girl's voice turned cold, "Are you trying to replicate my awakening? It's impossible. My awakening holds no inspirational meaning for you. Go ask someone else."

Zhou Xiaoxiao was stunned. Seeing the expression on the Pink-haired Girl's face, her mood immediately turned somewhat dejected. She turned and left despondently.

Seeing Zhou Xiaoxiao's desolate expression.

The Pink-haired Girl felt a bit of pity, and for a moment, she even felt an impulsive urge to help her.

But she didn't know how to help.

After leaving the area where the Pink-haired Girl practiced her sword, Zhou Xiaoxiao turned and found Chu Che.

Chu Che rubbed his chin, hesitated for a moment, then said, "My awakening has a certain uniqueness. If you're looking for inspiration from me, I'm afraid I can't help you~!"

"Ah~~~"

Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't expect Chu Che to refuse to say as well.

"However, what I can tell you is that awakening isn't limited to the path of natural awakening. There's also Sequence Serum. If you can find Sequence Serum..."

"Blah blah blah..."

After listening to Chu Che's little lecture, Zhou Xiaoxiao felt a bit desperate.

"Squad Leader Chu, in the current situation, finding Sequence Serum is probably impossible too!"

"You're overthinking it. Even if there were Sequence Serum, awakening isn't guaranteed."

"Ah~~~"

Chu Che's mouth was really mean, giving Zhou Xiaoxiao hope only to slap that hope away immediately.

Just as Zhou Xiaoxiao was hesitating about whether to go ask Chen Ye.

Iron Lion woke up.

Zhou Xiaoxiao was overjoyed and hurriedly found Iron Lion.

Iron Lion was indeed warm-hearted. For Zhou Xiaoxiao's questions, he was absolutely willing to answer everything she asked.

For every question Zhou Xiaoxiao raised, Iron Lion would scratch the back of his head and think for a long time.

Finally, he would squeeze out something like: "How did I awaken?"

"Hehe... I don't know either, I just awakened like that!"

"What did it feel like? Dunno, it just felt like that, you know!"

"What is Supernatural Power? Hmm, I don't know that either. I just feel really strong, like I can do whatever I want!"

"Don't know."

"I don't know that either~!"

"Can't really explain it..."

Similar answers nearly drove Zhou Xiaoxiao crazy.

Fortunately, Zhou Xiaoxiao had matured a lot now. Although she gained nothing.

She still politely thanked Iron Lion in the end.

Her final hope fell upon Chen Ye.

In the entire convoy, Zhou Xiaoxiao was the most unwilling to interact with Chen Ye.

Usually, when she saw Chen Ye, she would avoid him.

Deep in her heart, Zhou Xiaoxiao was still very afraid of Chen Ye.

However, in the end, her desire overcame her fear.

Zhou Xiaoxiao returned to the Panel Van and dug out a brand new, unopened pack of Huazi from a corner.

This pack of Huazi was found while gathering supplies.

Originally, it was meant to be traded for life-saving items with others at a critical moment.

Under normal circumstances, she would absolutely not be willing to take it out.

Even though she didn't smoke, she knew this stuff was good.

With the right buyer, this pack of cigarettes could play a major role.

This pack of Huazi had been hidden away by Zhou Xiaoxiao until it practically had a patina.

After hesitating for a good while, Zhou Xiaoxiao took this pack of Huazi and went to find Chen Ye.

Chen Ye was currently checking the remaining time on the Monster Pickup Truck.

There were still ten days left before the Monster Pickup Truck's upgrade would be complete.

He hadn't realized time had passed so quickly.

And with his cultivation of the "Moon Devouring Technique," his Supernatural Power was also growing rapidly.

During this time, Chu Che had also been trying his best to find suitable supply gathering points.

Last time, he said they would set out to gather supplies after three days.

But when the three days were up, Chu Che told everyone that unforeseen circumstances had arisen in the town they had planned to gather supplies from, forcing them to look for a new town.

As for what those circumstances were.

It was probably the appearance of an Anomaly aura there that even the pathfinder found troublesome.

Such things were all too common in the apocalypse.

Who would have thought three days would turn into another three days.

Now over ten days had passed. It was only when everyone's supplies were completely empty that Squad Leader Chu finally found a suitable town for gathering supplies.

Tomorrow!

Tomorrow they would reach the suitable town Squad Leader Chu mentioned.

It must be said, the convoy had been eating nothing but potato and lettuce for several days now.

And that was only because they had saved some up when supplies were dwindling.

If they didn't find a place to gather supplies soon, they might not even have potato left to eat.
