Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 335: The little thing is so infuriating

"Yawn~~~"

Chen Ye got out of bed with a yawn.

He hadn't slept until almost four or five in the morning last night.

He woke up before seven in the morning and then couldn't get back to sleep no matter what.

The side effects of the Blood Moon Lord were becoming increasingly severe.

Short-term insomnia wasn't too serious an impact for a superhuman's physique.

But if it became long-term insomnia, the consequences were predictable.

As soon as he got up in the morning and stepped out of the courtyard, he saw Little Fish, a tiny lump, squatting outside the courtyard brushing her teeth.

That's right, brushing her teeth.

It seemed like during the last supply run, she had casually grabbed some toothpaste and a toothbrush.

Water wasn't that scarce in Oasis City either, so brushing teeth had once again become a habit among superhumans.

Little Fish just gave Chen Ye a sidelong glance; even while brushing her teeth, that cocky expression on the little girl's face couldn't be hidden.

"Hey, little girl, where's your sister?"

The little girl didn't even turn her head, just kept brushing her teeth, treating Chen Ye like air.

Seriously, this little brat was too infuriating.

She always had this expression towards him.

What, do I owe her something?

Chen Ye looked around but didn't see any sign of the Pink-haired Girl.

At this time, she was probably out practicing her sword.

Perfect!

He'd been itching to deal with this little brat for a while.

Little Fish was brushing her teeth at that moment, tilting her head back, making "gurgle gurgle" sounds in her mouth.

But right at that moment.

Little Fish suddenly felt a powerful force on her little butt, as if someone had kicked her with a big foot.

Then her whole person plunged headfirst into the grass in front of her.

Half a minute later.

"Damn it, Chen Ye... I'm going to kill you..."

Chen Ye chuckled coldly.

Did you think I was asking about your sister to greet her?

Laughable, I just wanted to confirm whether your sister was around or not!

"For the judgment of Wonders, I believe they must at least have extraordinary effects and energy, capable of affecting Anomalies."

"Only then can they be called Wonders."

"Including our current Oasis, there are many such Wonders that can affect Anomalies, although these Wonders don't have serial numbers."

"But they can still be used by ordinary people."

Today, Chu Che was attending a seminar on the definition of Wonders.

The apocalypse came too fast and too urgently; human civilization was destroyed before it could react.

Therefore, much of the research on supernatural power and Wonders could only be conducted in the current crude environment.

For example, today's topic was: What exactly are Wonders, and how should they be defined?

That kind of "Wonders" that ordinary people can use.

Chu Che had encountered them before in Divine Elephant Village, and even gave them to the survivors in the convoy to use at the time.

But these "Wonders" without serial numbers contained very little energy and had limited effectiveness against Anomalies.

It was difficult to even kill the lowest-level Anomaly.

Most importantly, after the so-called "Wonders" exhausted their contained extraordinary or supernatural power.

These "Wonders" would turn back into ordinary, non-magical things.

Simply put, they could only store power for a period of time.

Therefore, such things were quite rare.

It wasn't due to the difficulty of making them, but rather that no one wanted to make them in the first place.

But some people still hoped to call these things "Wonders."

And so the arguments began.

Fortunately, before the meeting ended, a conclusion was finally reached.

There was only one sole criterion for judging whether something was a Wonder.

That was: only those with a sequence serial number could be considered Wonders.

Those without a sequence serial number could not be called Wonders.

So, these people gave these things a name: "Reserve Wonders."

Chu Che kept yawning throughout the discussion.

These people really had too much free time; did Oasis City have nothing else to do?

Next, they began discussing the issue of Wonder pricing.

This point actually piqued Chu Che's interest a bit.

After the apocalypse, the pricing system was very chaotic; currency had completely lost its market.

Even gold and jewelry, there were piles of them on March Street and East Gate Avenue, and nobody wanted them.

Therefore, the current trading method was barter.

But barter wasn't a long-term solution either.

For example, back when Chu Che and the others were in Divine Elephant Village, they needed twenty kilograms of rice or equivalent food to exchange for one Thunder Summoning Talisman.

Fifty kilograms of rice to exchange for one Five Thunder Talisman.

But now...

Chu Che and the others had previously exchanged fifty kilograms of rice or equivalent food for two Heart Engines.

This kind of pricing system was very chaotic.

This was mainly due to the instability of various conditions in the apocalypse.

For example, back in Divine Elephant Village, when the convoy went out to gather supplies, even though most food was expired, it was still edible.

But now, if the convoy went out to gather supplies, they could still find a lot of food, but much of it had started growing green mold.

This food wasn't just expired; eating it could kill people.

As time passed, it would become increasingly difficult to gather safe food in the future.

For Oasis to develop, it must have its own monetary system...

Hence the current topic.

Some believed Oasis could establish its own currency.

While others believed the most important thing now was to increase food production.

Oasis only had a few thousand people; what the hell did they need currency for?

These people argued until their faces were red.

From earlier introductions, it was learned that several of these old men were social elites before the apocalypse.

Whether these old men holding such meetings served any purpose was unknown, but at least it made outsiders think they were still useful.

Chu Che didn't believe Oasis could exist for long.

At most half a year, or a year, or maybe just next month.

Oasis would definitely be discovered by Anomalies, and then the situation of cities being overrun by Anomalies would repeat.

Chu Che hadn't forgotten the road sign and that corpse he saw outside Oasis City.

Chu Che always believed that unless Sequence 9 appeared among humans, they couldn't have stable survival bases.

Chu Che had similar meetings every day these past few days.

Of course, not every day had such boring topics.

Some topics were quite interesting.

For example, the Black Clothes in Oasis City.

According to these people, the Black Clothes in Oasis City were all people who had failed after using Sequence Serum.

Sequence Serum, that miraculous injection, couldn't guarantee that everyone would become a superhuman.

There was a certain probability of becoming a superhuman.

For example, there was once someone in Oasis City who injected two doses of Sequence Serum but remained an ordinary person in the end.

And some, after using Sequence Serum, couldn't withstand the serum's potency and ended up rotting to death.

According to them, this proportion wasn't low.

There was another type of person.

These people, after using Sequence Serum, became a special product between ordinary people and superhumans.

These people had no sequence and couldn't cultivate.

But their bodies could store supernatural power, and their physique was already somewhat different from ordinary people.

Yet they still fell short compared to superhumans.

For example, there were some such people in Oasis City.

These people were called Black Clothes.

These Black Clothes were also the reserve force for Anomaly Symbiosis Sequence users and Wonder Symbiosis Sequence users.

Of course, finding suitable Anomalies and Wonders wasn't that easy either.

But even becoming an Anomaly Symbiosis or Wonder Symbiosis user wasn't a permanent solution.

Most superhumans of the Symbiosis Sequence chose it as a last resort.

Many Anomaly Symbiosis or Wonder Symbiosis users would slowly become contaminated by the Anomaly's energy and turn into a new Anomaly.

Therefore, unless they had no other choice, no one would choose to become a Symbiosis user.

So, these people took on some tasks within their capabilities in Oasis City.

When they first entered the city, the plump Guide had briefly introduced it once, just not in as much detail as this time.

Squad Leader Chu's captain's notebook had been thickening rapidly these past two days.

And the situation in Oasis City seemed to be taking a somewhat strange turn.

Perhaps it was due to the approaching No-Rules Race.

The entire Oasis City carried an extra hint of tension.
