Sequence Two Corpse Collector, the Mole Pager

Rumble!

Rumble!

The landslide finally came crashing down, kicking up clouds of dust.

The dust gradually dispersed.

On one side.

The Predator off-road vehicle, the fire truck, and several motorcycles had stopped.

Butcher stood on the roof of the Predator vehicle.

He watched the retreating convoy ahead, his gaze cold.

They were prey destined never to escape!

"Repair the vehicles!"

Butcher gave the order.

Soon.

Quite a few people who could repair vehicles climbed out of the nearby fire truck.

It turned out that after Butcher crossed the landslide, it was not that he had not wanted to attack.

When he intended to continue the pursuit, he discovered that his vehicle was damaged.

It was some sort of machinery-related ability.

The people in Butcher's group repaired vehicles very quickly.

Before long.

The tires had been replaced, and the damaged brakes had been reinstalled as well.

The brakes had been missing earlier.

With Butcher inside, the vehicle had not gone crashing around at random.

On the other side.

Were the Predator Convoy's pickup trucks and the trucks carrying cages.

An excavator abandoned by Su Chen's convoy happened to be claimed by the Predator Convoy.

And so they began digging out the road.

Fortunately, it was daytime.

Those eerie creatures did not pursue them too aggressively; even with a forest nearby, they stayed hidden in the shadows.

"Kh... kh... kh..."

Just then, on one of the trucks, the little boy Xu Zihao suddenly began convulsing.

Numerous black markings appeared on his body.

The people around him all moved away.

When they first saw the little boy, they had already felt that there was something strange about him.

They had not completely lost their humanity yet. How could they eat something like that?

Their not attacking him first did not mean Xu Zihao would not attack.

Suddenly, Xu Zihao lunged straight at someone.

He sank his teeth into the man's throat.

Seeing this, the people around them all tried to stop him.

Yet despite being a child, Xu Zihao was terrifyingly strong.

More importantly, he had already bitten through that middle-aged man's throat.

Blood could only spurt from the man's throat as he struggled feebly.

Not only that, his body seemed to age rapidly.

In the blink of an eye.

He had become a decrepit old man.

"What...!"

Seeing this, everyone around him moved away.

After absorbing that middle-aged man, Xu Zihao grew considerably taller.

He looked as though he had aged a year.

Sequence Two, Corpse Collector.

After advancing his Sequence, Xu Zihao no longer merely possessed the simple recovery ability he had as a Sequence One Ghoul.

He could vaguely sense the vitality and aura of death around him.

A Corpse Collector was different, able to absorb the vitality and strength within corpses.

In other words, everything in a corpse.

He could also locate nearby corpses and read some of the deceased's memories by touching them.

While everyone was still bewildered and uncertain, Butcher suddenly appeared before Xu Zihao.

"Your ability improved?"

Butcher asked.

"Father, I want to eat people. I can grow up quickly!"

Xu Zihao knelt before Butcher and pleaded.

"Go ahead!"

Butcher was rather curious about exactly what changes Xu Zihao would undergo after eating people.

After receiving permission, Xu Zihao ultimately chose the women's cage.

He walked straight inside and began biting.

He was just like a wild beast.

"Aaah!"

The women screamed and scrambled out of the way.

None of them wanted to meet such a gruesome fate.

Huddled in a corner, Gao Yue also began trembling.

Fan Hui!

Fan Hui had saved a demon.

Gao Yue was truly terrified that she would become food for this little boy.

She hated Fan Hui.

It was Fan Hui, her jinx, who had dragged her step by step into the abyss.

Xu Zihao killed seven people in succession.

In the blink of an eye, he had grown as tall as an adult.

He reached a height of 1.8 meters.

His muscles were powerfully built.

Of course.

His skin had turned pale, making him look very much like a corpse.

Those black markings added a further touch of eeriness.

"Not bad!"

Butcher patted Xu Zihao on the shoulder, very pleased with the Sequence user he had rescued.

He could serve as hired muscle.

At that moment.

With the excavator digging away, the road was almost clear again.

Without anyone noticing, an Alarm Clock suddenly jumped up.

The Alarm Clock turned into a metal ball and stuck to a vehicle.

It was not conspicuous at all, and no one discovered it.

Outside Fog Valley.

When Su Chen brought his battered convoy to a stop outside the valley, he could not help sighing.

Who could have imagined that his convoy would suffer such losses?

Some people had died, too.

They had been accidentally shot dead by crossbow bolts.

The only thing Su Chen could marvel at was this.

His luck was truly good.

They had just passed through when that spot happened to suffer a landslide.

It had obstructed the Predator Convoy.

Otherwise.

They would have been caught again.

It could only be called luck!

After all, they had barely set any traps at the time.

This had bought them nearly an hour.

Now they had reached Fog Valley.

Since they knew the valley was poisonous, they certainly needed to make preparations.

Su Chen did not intend to keep running forever.

His goal was to completely eliminate the Predator Convoy behind them.

This valley could absolutely serve as an ambush site.

Su Chen was considering how to use this valley to fire the opening shot of their counterattack.

Of course, this was also the third plan.

He would take the initiative to learn about the Weird Entities and examine their abilities.

Then he would use their abilities to arrange traps.

This step would be somewhat dangerous.

Su Chen thought it over. There was nowhere more convenient than Fog Valley.

Beside him, Su Xi was in a cheerful mood in the passenger seat.

She had secretly helped her older brother just now.

Although she had paid a price, it did not matter at all.

Su Xi could sense that the thing had remained with the other convoy.

That was a good thing, too.

Just then, sounds suddenly rang out inside the cab.

It was the Pager, which had begun chattering.

"Father!"

"I, Xu Zihao, will definitely have my revenge."

"A Corpse Collector Sequence user can devour people to grow quickly and increase their strength."

"The strategist still passed out despite possessing the abilities of a Sequence Two Priest."

"Sequence One Butcher has the strongest ability, Blood Qi. He used Blood Qi to stop the landslide just now."

"Blood Qi attacks on both the mental and physical levels, lasting only an instant."

"Boss Butcher is about to break through to Sequence Three!"

Only after babbling away at length did the Pager suddenly stop.

Su Chen looked at Su Xi.

Su Xi also looked at Su Chen.

Both of them were somewhat baffled by this information.

"Could it be that a Pager is in the hands of the convoy behind us?"

After thinking for a moment, Su Xi immediately had an answer.

Their Pager was the main unit, while all the others were secondary units.

Some of their vehicles had been captured, so naturally, the Pagers had also become spoils.

Perhaps those people had never imagined that even a Pager could become an Anomalous Object.

After all, Sequence abilities were themselves somewhat unusual.

"To think that Xu Zihao has already reached Sequence Two!"

Su Chen also remarked with a sigh.

At the time, he had simply wanted to use Fan Hui to resolve the trouble.

He had never expected it.

Now, Xu Zihao had become a problem as well.

They truly were mortal enemies now.

He had killed the boy's grandmother, after all.

Su Chen did not regret it in the slightest.

Under the present circumstances, killing him would be even more justified.

No one could think that far ahead.

Back then.

He had not wanted to go against his conscience, so he had given him a chance.

There would be no more chances after this.

Su Chen recalled the messages in the Pager.

They were still quite useful to him.

Even just the information about Butcher's Blood Qi move.

With that information, he could take plenty of precautions.

At once.

Su Chen felt that his luck was about to turn.

Good news lifted the spirits.

Su Chen's mind sprang to life, and he came up with a way to use Fog Valley to trap Butcher.

This called for a chain of schemes, at the very least!
