Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 369: The Calm Before the Storm

When Zhou Xiaoxiao appeared before the crowd again, many people were startled.

It wasn't because Zhou Xiaoxiao had awakened some Sequence.

It was because many parts of her body were burned—on her arms, on her back…

Even a lot of the hair on her head had been singed off.

Large swathes of burns were exposed to the air, and she hadn't even changed out of her previous clothes, still wearing them in a disheveled state.

This woman, who used to care immensely about her appearance, now seemed utterly indifferent to all this.

Earlier, it wasn't that no one suggested treating her wounds first.

But Zhou Xiaoxiao had refused Doctor Luo's kind offer, stubbornly waiting only for the distribution of the Sequence Serum.

In this woman's eyes, nothing was more important than the Sequence Serum.

So, even now, the wounds on her body remained untreated.

"You child, you really make people… not know what to say."

Doctor Luo's wife grabbed Zhou Xiaoxiao's arm, her voice choked up and unable to continue.

In the convoy, if you asked who had the best rapport with people.

It definitely wasn't Chen Ye, nor was it Chu Che…

Instead, it was Doctor Luo's wife, this middle-aged woman named Shen Si, who had the best rapport in the entire convoy.

Doctor Luo was considered the convoy's accompanying doctor.

And this middle-aged woman named Shen Si was the convoy's accompanying nurse.

Some people called her Sister Shen, others called her Big Sister Shen.

Often, whenever anyone in the convoy had a headache or fever, Big Sister Shen would be the first to go and help.

Due to long-term consumption of expired food, illness within the convoy was not uncommon.

Sometimes, even Doctor Luo was at a loss.

After all, medicine within the convoy was truly scarce.

Sometimes, they had to tough it out; those who couldn't make it could only be buried in some unknown corner.

Yet, this woman, despite her fear of superhumans, had gone to Chu Che twice to ask for "diluted Death God Blood Tears."

You should know, Chu Che treasured the "Death God Blood Tears" dearly; even if Chen Ye had a headache or fever and asked him for it.

He basically never gave it.

But this woman had managed to get some.

Although it was "Death God Blood Tears" diluted to the point of being almost like plain water.

It still managed to save two people who were on the verge of ending their lives.

"Sister Shen, I… I'm fine…"

"You silly girl, look at the state you're in? And you say you're fine? Come with me…"

After saying this, she ignored the expression on Zhou Xiaoxiao's face and dragged the girl into a nearby tent.

As Zhou Xiaoxiao passed by Chen Ye, she still couldn't help but lower her head.

In front of Chen Ye…

Zhou Xiaoxiao always felt a sense of not daring to look him in the eye.

Zhou Xiaoxiao's appearance truly drew everyone's attention.

Everyone knew how much this woman cared about the Sequence Serum.

They also knew that one dose of Sequence Serum had been allocated to her.

Now, seeing her appear, many people were not only curious about the burns on her body but also curious about her having used the Sequence Serum.

However, right now, this woman didn't seem any different.

As for the other dose of Sequence Serum, it was ultimately allocated to Xu Lina.

As for why it was given to Xu Lina and not Little Fish.

In this competition, the only one who had a chance to compete with Xu Lina was Little Fish.

Chu Che had also hesitated for a long time, even specifically talking to Little Fish and Xu Lina.

Anyway, the final result was that the dose of Sequence Serum went to Xu Lina.

Regarding this, although Little Fish was somewhat unconvinced, she could only hold it in.

Now, Little Fish looked at Chu Che with disdain, finding fault with everything about him.

Chu Che also gave his guarantee that if they could obtain the next dose of Sequence Serum in the future, it would definitely go to her.

Little Fish huffed angrily with a "hmph" and then ignored Chu Che.

As for Bald Old Li…

That guy Iron Lion's performance on the racetrack was simply…

"Unbearable to watch" was an apt description.

They had a clear plan agreed upon beforehand, but once that guy got carried away, he threw caution to the wind.

He directly started brawling with that guy called Xiong Ba.

Bald Old Li later simply gave up, even stopping the car altogether.

This at least allowed Bald Old Li to keep his life.

As for Xue Nan and Xiao Fu…

Xue Nan didn't have much obsession with the Sequence Serum…

Xiao Fu, on the other hand, wasn't qualified enough to be allocated a Sequence Serum.

Xu Lina stood beside Chen Ye, her expression as docile as a kitten, showing an attitude of being dead set on following Chen Ye.

If someone who didn't know saw her like this, they'd think she was Chen Ye's little wife.

But everyone knew Chen Ye seemed to be… well…

Xu Lina remained completely unmoved by the curious glances everyone cast her way, as if she didn't notice them at all.

The Sequence Serum was now on her person, hidden very well.

The reason she hadn't used it yet was mainly because she hadn't had the chance.

Chen Ye wouldn't protect her like Ding Dong did.

If she dared to take this thing out, she probably wouldn't make it a hundred meters out of this small courtyard.

Right now, there were many people in Chu Che's small courtyard.

Not only were the convoy's five superhumans all gathered here, but also Bald Old Li, Little Fish, Xue Nan, Xiao Fu, Xu Lina, Doctor Luo and his wife, Ding Dong, and Zhou Xiaoxiao…

"Clap, clap, clap…"

Chu Che clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention.

"Alright, everyone, starting today, this courtyard cannot be left unattended. We must ensure at least two superhumans remain in the courtyard every day."

"We also need to arrange superhumans for night watch…"

"Everyone, this time, what we're guarding against isn't just anomalies, but also people…"

The expressions on everyone's faces grew much more serious.

"Xue Nan, Xu Lina, Xiao Fu, you need to be prepared on the ordinary people's side. If the situation turns bad, be ready to leave at any time!"

Xue Nan and Xu Lina nodded slightly, indicating they understood.

"By the way, Boss Gao has left. Doctor Luo will become the new manager of Bus Number Six."

"Does anyone have any objections?"

Doctor Luo, having been suddenly summoned here today, was clearly somewhat mentally prepared.

In terms of rapport, he and his wife had pretty good rapport within the convoy.

Becoming the manager of Bus Number Six could be considered justified and proper.

No one objected.

Chu Che then said to Xu Lina, "You need to use your Sequence Serum as soon as possible. People have already started approaching me, wanting to trade for the Sequence Serum!"

"I told them you had already used it. If they find out you're still holding onto it, there might be trouble!"

Xu Lina nodded seriously.

"After the meeting, Xue Nan, find a place for Xu Lina!"

Xue Nan nodded.

Xue Nan didn't have particularly strong feelings about the Sequence Serum.

If someone had news of his sister, he would rather trade the Sequence Serum for it.

Unfortunately, among the thousands of people in Oasis, not a single person knew news of his sister.

Next was arranging the night watch personnel.

Tonight, the first half of the night would be Chen Ye and the Pink-haired Girl. The second half would be Ding Dong and Iron Lion.

As for Chu Che…

He was the captain, and also the pathfinder…

If something really happened, that would be when he played his role.

At that time, he might have to use the "Blood Path" ability.

Each use of this ability took a significant toll on the pathfinder.

Regarding this arrangement, neither Chen Ye nor the Pink-haired Girl had any objections.

The blood moon hung in the sky. Chen Ye's body transformed into green smoke and disappeared from his spot. The next second, smoke swirled on the roof, revealing Chen Ye's human form.

The Pink-haired Girl sat cross-legged in the courtyard, the Fire Dragon Sword laid horizontally across her knees.

Chen Ye surveyed the surroundings briefly.

Sure enough, it wasn't just their side being so vigilant.

On the roofs of neighboring courtyards, superhumans were also standing guard warily.

Chen Ye even saw Ye of the Knife Sharpener Sequence and Xu Linhao of the Athlete Sequence.

Chen Ye grinned and waved at the two of them.

In response, the two just coldly turned their heads away, putting on an "I don't want to know you at all" attitude.

Chen Ye didn't mind this either, letting out a carefree laugh before sitting cross-legged on the roof.

This No-Rules Race, although it didn't involve intense combat.

Had still allowed him to accumulate some Slaughter Points.
