He had that ability too?!
A Xin stared at Chu Sheng in disbelief. Now even the disemboweling no longer turned her stomach. Instead, she felt a little fond of him.
What a good guy!
People did not share the same joys and sorrows.
As a member of An Xi's squad, she had nothing to fear as long as she did not provoke Chu Sheng. And she really was not afraid of him.
"Mm, start thinking about what weapon you want. A saber, a sword, a spear, whatever."
As An Xi spoke, she meant exactly that. Having Chu Sheng upgrade items cost nothing more than supplies. Their squad had only two girls, and they never used up their share of the supplies. By now, their vehicle was almost too full to hold any more.
There were even more supplies on the roof.
They might as well have Chu Sheng turn some of them into a little extra protection for A Xin.
At least she would not be helpless when she encountered an Anomalies.
As the two talked, Captain Hui's voice came from up ahead.
"Something's wrong! Everyone, get ready to fight!"
Hearing this, An Xi shoveled the last bit of rice from her bowl into her mouth and tossed the bowl to A Xin. With her cheeks bulging, she grabbed the Spear beside her and stood up on the vehicle's roof to survey the area from above.
If you ignored her chewing cheeks, she really did look rather valiant with her ponytail and Spear in hand.
Nobody gets to interrupt my meal!
Besides her, Zhu Qing and Old Man Li also prepared themselves.
With the sound of tearing clothes, Zhu Qing instantly transformed into a five-meter-tall giant. As his Sequence progressed, the giant he could transform into grew taller and taller.
Thanks to the upgrade he had previously gotten from Chu Sheng, only the lower half of his stretchy pants tore, while the upgraded section remained perfectly intact. As he grew, however, his stretchy shorts became stretchy underwear.
The mysterious streaker.
Old Man Li took several bright red chili peppers from his pocket and watched their surroundings warily.
Chu Sheng was no exception. Clutching the Butcher Knife, he moved closer to Zhu Qing, jumped onto a vehicle's roof, and crouched there, ready to dodge at any moment.
Held in his hand, the Butcher Knife's pitch-black blade now gleamed with an eerie, cold light.
The other survivors huddled together, hid inside vehicles, or quietly edged closer to the Sequence ability users.
Having spent so long with the convoy, Chu Sheng naturally knew that Captain Hui's warning meant an Anomalies had set its sights on them!
Just then, grunting came from ahead of the convoy. Chu Sheng looked up and saw an Anomalies resembling a wild boar charging toward them.
As for how he knew it was an Anomalies, the wild boar was constantly being scorched beneath the blazing sun, surrounded by black fumes from the burning.
Chu Sheng's expression changed, and delight welled up inside him.
It's a pig!
And my Butcher Knife's ability is perfect for killing pigs!
[Cat-Claw Butcher Knife] [Ability 2: Intimidates Anomalies resembling pigs or cats and greatly increases damage dealt to both.]
The Eerie Pig was far from small. Compared to Zhu Qing's five-meter giant form, it was only about half his height.
That still made it over two meters tall!
The sight of such a colossal creature charging was no small shock.
Once Zhu Qing saw what the Anomalies was, he charged straight out.
He actually intended to collide with the Eerie Pig head-on!
Seeing this, Captain Hui, who had already taken cover behind the others, blanched and shouted, "Qing! Don't face it head-on!"
"It's fine! I'll hold it here! Find an opening to attack!"
Zhu Qing's deep voice rang out. By now, he was standing directly in the Eerie Pig's path.
The instant it saw him, the Eerie Pig's already scarlet eyes grew even redder, as though it had spotted a mortal enemy. It charged even faster.
"Fuck you, you freak!" Zhu Qing cursed, bracing his arms in front of him, each thicker than Chu Sheng's entire body. The moment the Eerie Pig made contact, a blood-red aura flared around him.
"I'm already Sequence 8! You think I'm scared of a freak like you?!"
Zhu Qing seized the Eerie Pig's two tusks with both hands and stubbornly blocked its path. It pushed him backward, his feet plowing two furrows more than half a meter deep into the ground.
But the Eerie Pig also slowed, eventually coming to a complete stop. Its entire head shook back and forth, seemingly trying to shake Zhu Qing off.
Zhu Qing clung tightly to its tusks, locked in a contest of strength with it.
"Hurry up and attack! This freak is too strong! I can't hold it much longer!"
He forced the words through gritted teeth. It was clear he was straining.
At the sight, Chu Sheng's eyes lit up.
What a perfect opportunity!
This is a Survival Points dispenser!
Without another moment's hesitation, he rushed toward the Eerie Pig, holding the Butcher Knife in a reverse grip. There was not a trace of fear in his eyes, only pure desire.
An Xi was faster still. Once Zhu Qing had restrained the Eerie Pig, she pushed off the vehicle's roof and leaped into the air, releasing the White Jade Spear in an instant.
She had actually used the White Jade Spear as a javelin!
And the White Jade Spear did not disappoint. The moment it touched the Eerie Pig, it pierced straight through without the slightest resistance, like a steel needle through tofu.
An Xi landed and turned her wrist. The White Jade Spear flew backward out of the Eerie Pig and returned to her hand.
Without stopping, she charged toward the Eerie Pig with her Spear.
Seeing this, Chu Sheng's eyes nearly turned red.
Mine! It's all mine!
At that moment, he only wished he had four legs!
Though An Xi's White Jade Spear had pierced through the Eerie Pig, it did not bleed. Barely any black fumes escaped, either. It looked as though it had not been injured at all.
Still, An Xi's attack had enraged it, and the pressure on Zhu Qing instantly surged.
"Oink, snort, oink! Snort, snort!"
The pig's cries rang out again. Zhu Qing felt the tusks in his hands grow much sharper, and the Eerie Pig shook its head with increasing force.
But An Xi had already arrived, repeatedly thrusting the White Jade Spear into the Eerie Pig's neck.
Infused with Geng Metal Power, the White Jade Spear had turned entirely pale gold. Only a faint glimpse of the white jade within could be seen through its flowing golden glow.
After several consecutive thrusts, the Eerie Pig stopped shaking its head. Instead, it used its immense strength to turn and stare at An Xi.
"Oink, snort, oink! Oink, oink, oink!!!"
Its squeals were filled with fury. Despite Zhu Qing restraining it, it still managed to lunge toward An Xi at a considerable speed.
Only then did Chu Sheng arrive. Seeing that the Eerie Pig was still doing fine, he breathed a sigh of relief. His knife-wielding hand trembled with excitement.
Fantastic!
What he saw before him was no longer an Eerie Pig, but his three-wheeled motorcycle. No! It's my Hundred-Ton King!
I'm going to be the man behind the wheel of a Hundred-Ton King!
The Eerie Pig was lunging toward An Xi, but it soon stopped. It sensed an intense killing intent and began trembling uncontrollably.
It was as though a natural predator had set its sights on it.
"Oink, oink, oink!"
The Eerie Pig stopped moving, but before it could react any further, a Butcher Knife plunged straight into its neck, burying the entire blade.
As Chu Sheng pulled the knife out, black fumes immediately poured from the wound.
"Oink!! Squeeeal!! Oink, oink!!"
[Survival Points +500]
"Beautiful! That sound is absolutely beautiful!"
Chu Sheng had never heard such a beautiful sound in his life.
These aren't Survival Points. This is my Hundred-Ton King!
