Chapter Summaries

After waking in his past life aboard a survivor convoy, Jiang He recognized a fellow passenger as a Mutant Beast who would attack after nightfall. As he considered killing the man before he transformed, the All Things Fusion System began activating.

• Jiang He woke on the Sunshine Convoy’s supply bus and realized he had returned to the third week of the apocalypse.
• Jiang He recognized the coughing man clutching a bone urn as a Mutant Beast from his previous life.
• Jiang He recalled the monster’s nighttime attack at an abandoned gas station and gripped his rusted dagger, knowing it might not be enough.
• The All Things Fusion System detected an incomplete Weird Object and began activating as Jiang He considered his next move.

Jiang He used his system points to identify a damaged Lightning-Struck Wood and began repairing his dagger so he could kill a man carrying a red stone that could awaken a Superpower Sequence. As the convoy stopped at a gas station, the old woman tried to take the man's urn, and his condition appeared to worsen.

• Jiang He claimed the beginner gift pack, receiving supplies, 500 system points, and damaged Lightning-Struck Wood.
• Jiang He learned the wood was a Sequence Wonder effective against weird entities and decided to repair his dagger instead.
• Jiang He recalled that a red stone inside the man's urn had awakened Liu Lu into a Superpower Sequence in his previous life, and resolved to seize it.
• Jiang He spent hours grinding the dagger against a stone slab while the convoy traveled, but had not yet met the system's repair requirement.
• The convoy stopped at a gas station, leaving Jiang He, the man, and the old woman in the vehicle.
• The old woman reached for the man's urn, and his coughing intensified as he clutched it and grew ferocious.

Jiang He delayed escaping when Old Wang stopped the fight on the vehicle, then used a gas station’s gravel base to sharpen his dagger and trigger its repair. While the repair ran, he gathered supplies and gained two storage slots, leaving him prepared to return to the convoy as the man’s mutation remained a threat.

• Jiang He watched the old woman and the man struggle over the urn, then paused his escape when Old Wang ordered them to stop fighting on his vehicle.
• Jiang He left the vehicle and decided to sharpen his dagger before trying to seize the urn and its crystal.
• Jiang He sharpened the dagger at the gas station, frightening a group of college students into fleeing back toward camp.
• Jiang He spent 450 system points to repair the Bloodsucking Dagger, with the system estimating a repair time of fifty minutes.
• Jiang He used his past-life knowledge to gather supplies in forty minutes and packed them into a second backpack.
• The system announced that the Bloodsucking Dagger was repaired and awarded Jiang He two storage slots for an achievement.

Jiang He attacked the man on bus number three, discovering he was a Burned Weird, but an elderly woman transformed into a powerful exotic beast and swallowed him. She then knocked Jiang He out through the bus window, leaving him injured and warned by the system to flee from the Level 3 Blood Wolf.

• Jiang He returned to camp at the same time as in his previous life and went to bus number three instead of helping Old Wang with fuel.
• Jiang He stabbed the middle-aged man and used the lightning-struck wood to wound him, revealing him as a Level 2 Burned Weird.
• Burned Weird transformed and attacked Jiang He while the distant survivors remained unaware of the fight.
• The elderly woman transformed into a black exotic beast, seized Burned Weird, and swallowed him.
• The exotic beast threw a box into Jiang He's chest, sending him through the bus window, and the system identified her as a Level 3 Blood Wolf.

Jiang He fled the Weird Driver and the blood wolf as they slaughtered the survivors, then swallowed a crimson crystal in a desperate attempt to awaken a Superpower Sequence. With a bus closing in behind him, he was left suffering through the crystal’s effects, uncertain whether he had acted in time.

• Jiang He received warnings that a level-three Weird Driver was nearby and ran from the bus as the blood wolf attacked Old Wang.
• The blood wolf hurled a bus at Old Wang, while survivors at the camp mistook the commotion for an accident and mocked Jiang He as he warned them to get out of the way.
• Old Wang controlled four buses and sent them skimming into the camp, crushing the survivors as Jiang He and a few others escaped.
• Jiang He recognized that the Weird Driver was trying to kill everyone who might have discovered its identity, while his chest injury made it harder to keep running.
• With a bus rapidly gaining on him, Jiang He swallowed a crimson crystal, triggering intense pain throughout his body.

Jiang He awakened as a Berserker with the Fire Control ability after surviving the buses’ attack, then returned to the camp to collect supplies. He discovered the old woman was still alive and approached her with a dagger.

• A mysterious woman pulled Jiang He into a drainage ditch, where they hid as four buses swept back and forth across the road, killing survivors.
• Jiang He awakened as a Berserker, gained Fire Control, and unlocked three storage slots.
• Jiang He left the sleeping woman behind and watched the camp from a nearby hill, spotting the injured old woman and no sign of the eerie driver or blood wolf.
• After waiting until morning, Jiang He entered the camp and collected its scattered supplies.
• Jiang He approached the old woman with a bloodsucking dagger, but her eyes suddenly opened.

Jiang He escaped the transformed old woman by using fire to propel himself, then narrowly avoided burning himself alive. He discovered two weird entities inside her and killed them at her request, earning system points.

• Jiang He used alcohol, a lighter, and his fire control ability to propel himself away from the blood wolf, which soon reverted to the old woman as it neared death.
• Jiang He extinguished the flames spreading across his clothes and confirmed through the system that the old woman posed no danger.
• Jiang He saw two weird entities struggling inside the old woman's belly and realized the blood wolf had swallowed the weird driver.
• The old woman indicated that she wanted Jiang He to kill the weird entities, and he drew the lightning-struck wood to do so.
• Jiang He killed the level-three weird driver and the level-two fire-burned weird entity, earning 6,000 system points.

Jiang He discovered an Orange Sequence Potion where the old woman had died, then appraised the wrecked bus and learned it was a powerful Weird Object that could run on the remains of humans and supernatural creatures. He decided to keep it, but its storage requirements forced him to prepare a container for the corpses that could fuel it.

• Jiang He found an Orange Sequence Potion beside the old woman's body and stored the remainder in his system space.
• Jiang He checked the three buses and found their core components intact, then received a prompt to repair the wrecked bus number three.
• Jiang He spent fifty system points to appraise the bus and learned it was the Weird Driver's level-three vehicle, with Bloodthirst, Extreme Speed, and Toughness skills.
• Jiang He tried to store the bus but discovered it required six storage slots, while he had only five, and decided to gather remains to feed it instead.
• Jiang He repaired a damaged plastic barrel for fifty system points, turning it into a 1,000-liter Waste Barrel.

Jiang He collected severed limbs, encountered the Rampage Group from his previous life, and consumed a High-level Sequence Potion that began upgrading him to a level-2 Superpower Sequence. He rested, reorganized his supplies, and headed down the mountain while the upgrade was still underway.

• Survivors gathered around Jiang He as he collected human parts, then the Rampage Group arrived and parked nearby.
• Jiang He recognized Liu Lu and the Rampage Group from his previous life, silently vowed to settle old scores, and left with the Waste Barrel.
• Liu Lu questioned the survivors and noticed Jiang He could carry the enormous barrel, suspecting he might be a Superpower Sequence.
• Jiang He gathered the remaining human parts, asked the system about potion fusion, and drank the High-level Sequence Potion without spending system points.
• The system began upgrading Jiang He to a level-2 Superpower Sequence, estimating the process would take 16 hours and unlocking a future luck-point boost.
• Jiang He rested, reorganized his supplies into bundles, stored them in his system backpack, and headed down the mountain.

Jiang He watched Liu Lu recruit survivors by repairing buses, learned that Wang Qian had become a Superpower Sequence, and awakened his second skill, Flame Jet. As the Rampage Group shared an extravagant meal, Jiang He spotted a disguised Superpower Sequence among them.

• Jiang He learned that Liu Lu planned to repair the less-damaged buses and bring the survivors into his group, while the badly damaged Weird bus was abandoned.
• Jiang He overheard survivors discuss Liu Lu finding two Sequence Crystals and recognized that Wang Qian had become a Superpower Sequence in this changed timeline.
• Liu Lu broke up a fight over bread and split it evenly between a Rampage Group member and a Sunshine Convoy survivor.
• Jiang He received his second Sequence Skill, Flame Jet, and wondered whether each level granted him another skill.
• The Rampage Group moved camp to the buses and served a lavish meal, while Jiang He noticed a Superpower Sequence disguised as Li Zhuang.

Jiang He refused to share his food with starving survivors and deterred them from taking it by threatening them with his dagger. Meanwhile, Liu Lu fawned over Wang Qian at the Rampage Convoy camp, where the members waited for her before eating.

• Jiang He ate bread and grilled sausages while nearby survivors eyed his food greedily.
• An old man asked Jiang He for a sausage for his hungry granddaughter, Caicai, but Jiang He refused and she led her grandfather away.
• Jiang He brandished his Bloodsucking Dagger when the other survivors gathered around, and they dispersed without challenging him.
• Liu Lu warned Wang Qian that Jiang He might be trouble if they tried to recruit the survivors into the convoy.
• Liu Lu offered Wang Qian rice and fawned over her, while she criticized his wastefulness and reminded him that she had awakened the Technician Sequence.
• Liu Lu announced that the convoy could eat once Wang Qian arrived, enforcing his rule that no one ate before the deputy leader.

Jiang He discovered that the red moonlight enabled the abandoned bus to repair itself, then used system points to bind it and received an Energy Core. The core’s properties suggested it was connected to the world’s upheaval, and Jiang He completed his upgrade.

• Jiang He waited for the bus to react, but it remained damaged until the red moon rose.
• Under the red moonlight, the bus devoured scraps and began repairing itself with fine black threads.
• The system offered Jiang He the option to bind the bus, and he spent 1,000 points to make it his Weird Object.
• The system extracted an Energy Core from the bus, and Jiang He learned it could fuel Weird Objects and accelerate supernatural creatures’ evolution.
• Jiang He suspected the Energy Core had attracted the Eldritch Horrors and Mutant Beasts, hid it in his system space, and received notice that his upgrade was complete.

Jiang He killed a newly mutated Flying Mouse in the woods, then discovered the original girl was still alive and carried her back to the bus as Eldritch Horrors approached. He escaped the camp with her, while the other survivors rushed toward the remaining buses.

• Jiang He followed a strange figure into the woods and found a mutated Flying Mouse, which the system identified as a level 1 Mutant Beast.
• The Flying Mouse attacked Jiang He with a sonic skill, but he killed it with Flame Jet and earned 100 system points.
• Hearing Eldritch Horrors closing in, Jiang He found the real girl hiding in the grass and carried her toward the camp.
• Liu Lu woke Wang Qian and the other survivors, who hurried to the buses as the camp came under threat.
• Jiang He fed the Flying Mouse's corpse to the repaired bus, drove away with the girl, and left the other survivors to seek places on the remaining buses.

Jiang He used an energy core and the bus’s skills to speed along the dangerous cliffside road as Eldritch Horrors and Mutant Beasts pursued him. He overtook the Rampage Group’s bus, but the creatures caught up with the group behind him.

• Survivors on the second and third buses panicked when they realized they needed drivers, and Liu Lu killed a man who tried to seize Wang Qian.
• Two middle-aged survivors drove the second bus away, while the people left on the third bus were attacked by Eldritch Horrors.
• Jiang He struggled to steer his damaged bus along the winding road as Wang Qian overtook him and the bus neared a starving state.
• Jiang He placed an energy core in the bus’s storage compartment, attracting Eldritch Horrors and Mutant Beasts that abandoned the survivors and pursued his bus.
• Jiang He buckled his seat belt, activated Rampage and Toughness, and raced around the bends, overtaking Wang Qian’s bus.
• A Mutant Beast caught a curious Rampage Group passenger who had leaned out the window as the creatures surged toward their bus.

Jiang He tried to escape the pursuing Eldritch Horrors and Mutant Beasts, but thick fog and rain left him trapped with a level-three Earth Earthworm. He used the energy core to draw the creature away and sped into the fog, relying on a plan to navigate it.

• Wang Qian noticed the monsters ignored the Rampage Group’s bus as they rushed past, and she wondered whether Jiang He belonged to the Superpower Sequence.
• After hours of pursuit, Jiang He saw most of the Eldritch Horrors fall behind, leaving the Earth Earthworm and two other creatures to chase him.
• Thick fog blocked Jiang He’s view, so he put the energy core into the system space and stopped the bus to make the Earth Earthworm lose his scent.
• The Earth Earthworm’s tail cleared part of the fog, and the system warned Jiang He that the level-three Mutant Beast posed extreme danger.
• When rain threatened to thin the fog, Jiang He threw out the energy core, activated Rampage and Toughness, and raced away as the Earth Earthworm pursued its energy.

Jiang He escaped the Earth Earthworm by driving the bus down the mountain and outrunning it on a straight road. After stopping to rest, he killed an Undying Insect that threatened the little girl, then watched the bus consume its corpse.

• Jiang He used [Fire Control] to see through the fog and drove down the slippery mountain road while the Earth Earthworm pursued him.
• Jiang He drove the bus through the guardrail and off the mountainside, then accelerated away after landing.
• The Earth Earthworm threw a section of guardrail into the road, but Jiang He smashed through it and escaped.
• After driving for an hour without pursuit, Jiang He stopped, put away the energy core, and rested until the little girl screamed.
• Jiang He killed the Undying Insect with the Bloodsucking Dagger, earned one system point, and tossed its body into the bus.
• The bus made the Undying Insect's body vanish, leaving the little girl stunned.

Jiang He lured Undying Insects from their cavern and burned successive swarms to earn system points as he searched for their mother insect. With the points rising and night approaching, he realized Liu Lu and the others might not have survived the journey behind him.

• Jiang He followed the vibrations of an Undying Insect's feelers to Gou Village and found bones marking the insects' territory.
• After eating and giving the sleeping little girl three pieces of bread, Jiang He found a cavern entrance crowded with Undying Insect feelers.
• Jiang He poured alcohol into the cavern and used Flame Jet and Fire Control to burn nearly four hundred Undying Insects, raising his system points to 10,350.
• A larger swarm gathered at the cavern entrance, and Jiang He repeated the attack from a nearby rooftop as his system points continued to climb.
• Jiang He decided he needed to kill the mother insect before nightfall, then realized Liu Lu and the others might have been left behind and had little chance of surviving.

Jiang He entered the Undying Insects’ clean, enormous nest and faced the level-two Undying Insect Mother. He burned off its wings and pierced its heart, intending to preserve its body and developing offspring for the bus’s energy.

• Jiang He calmed himself, entered the nest once the temperature had fallen, and found it unexpectedly clean and spacious.
• The system identified a level-two Mutant Beast, the Undying Insect Mother, and warned that it would no longer provide combat advice.
• Jiang He used two bottles of alcohol to spread fuel over the Insect Mother, then ignited it with Flame Jet and Fire Control.
• Jiang He controlled another Flame Jet into a sharp sword and pierced the Insect Mother through the heart.
• The wounded Insect Mother kept struggling, so Jiang He struck its head again to finish it quickly.

Jiang He killed the level-two Undying Insect Mother, discovered the Mimosa Sequence Wonder, and upgraded his bus’s automatic pickup function. After salvaging the creature for fuel and repairs and taking windows and supplies from nearby houses, he drove on with the little girl until two red lights appeared ahead.

• Jiang He received 1,200 System Points for killing the Undying Insect Mother and found a Mimosa beneath its corpse.
• Jiang He unlocked automatic pickup, appraised the Mimosa and Bloodsucking Dagger, and learned that the Mimosa could detect danger nearby.
• Jiang He collected Undying Insect remains, fed half the Insect Mother's corpse to the bus, and used its blood and organs to repair it.
• Jiang He tied the remaining corpse to the bus roof and removed windows and supplies from nearby houses before leaving at 7:20.
• Jiang He drove along the moonlit highway with the little girl, then spotted two red lights in the distance.

Jiang He caught up with the Sunshine Convoy and realized its survivors had sacrificed the women to escape the pursuing creatures. After following Wang Qian's bus until it ran out of fuel, he decided to fuse the mimosa with his mechanical watch and confirmed the fusion.

• Jiang He spotted the Sunshine Convoy's bus and saw that only a dozen survivors remained, with Wang Qian driving and no women aboard.
• Jiang He suspected the survivors had thrown the women out as bait, then stared at Wang Qian and Liu Lu without explaining himself.
• Wang Qian fled from Jiang He for three hours until her bus ran out of fuel, then woke Liu Lu and ordered him to refuel it.
• Jiang He considered how the mimosa's ability hindered him in a fight and asked the system about fusing it with another item.
• Jiang He chose to fuse the mimosa with his mechanical watch for 1,000 system points and confirmed the choice.
