The shadowy figures around the convoy were visibly increasing in number.

From time to time, figures could be seen crawling out from among the graves.

The superhumans stood ready, their expressions relaxed, but every one of them was prepared.

The ordinary survivors, on the other hand, looked uneasy and uncertain.

They had just heard some news—someone on that bus had actually killed an Anomaly.

That news stirred a strange feeling in the hearts of all the survivors.

For the first time, the survivors no longer seemed so afraid of those things hiding in the darkness.

But the superhumans had a different feeling.

These creatures from the Sea of Chaotic Graves seemed far too numerous.

Earlier, Chu Che had said it was a small group of Anomalies.

The hell was this a small group of Anomalies?

Chen Ye really wanted to shove those words back down Chu Che’s throat.

Of course, Chen Ye also knew that he couldn’t blame Chu Che for this.

If he had to pick someone to take the blame, it would be those idiots on the bus.

They had killed those Anomalies in their self-righteousness and stirred up the nerves of this Sea of Chaotic Graves.

If there had been no complications,

maybe it would really have been just a small group of Anomalies, like Chu Che had said.

Chu Che was now in a difficult spot himself.

What he had sensed earlier really was only a small group of Anomalies.

The danger level of those Anomalies wasn’t particularly high either.

That was why Chu Che had chosen this route.

Just like Chen Ye thought, those guys on the bus, with their reckless actions, were like a pebble thrown into water.

While stirring up ripples, they also awakened the Sea of Chaotic Graves.

Places that had no Anomalies before

were now all sensing Anomaly auras.

The convoy right now was like a magnet, constantly drawing Anomalies awake from their graves.

Of course Chen Ye understood the convoy’s current predicament from Dantai Bie’s words.

The convoy was too slow.

There was no way to shake off those things hiding in the darkness.

The convoy tried to shake off the Anomalies that kept closing in.

There were just too many Anomalies all around.

The convoy was like a ribbon of light, trying to cut quickly through the rolling Sea of Chaotic Graves.

Even though the convoy had pushed its speed to the max, it still couldn’t completely shake off those Anomalies.

Those “people” just stood among the endless graves, using their eerie eyes to watch the convoy pass before them.

No one spoke.

There was only silent progress.

Chu Che and the Pink-haired Girl’s vehicle performed the best.

They were far ahead, leaving the rest of the convoy in the dust.

Chen Ye’s Monster Pickup Truck, however, seemed a bit worse for wear.

Even though Chen Ye had the activation trait of the Monster Pickup Truck, allowing him to control it like an extension of his own arm,

he still couldn’t completely avoid this terrible road conditions.

There was no road at all here.

It was just one grave mound after another connected together.

The Monster Pickup Truck’s chassis was tough enough, so there was no need to worry about something breaking or deforming under the truck.

The tires had also been upgraded, so there was no concern about blowouts.

But when it came to adaptability to this kind of terrain, it still couldn’t match those two professionally tuned and modified off-road vehicles.

Luckily, with the help of the Little Monster hiding inside the truck, it could barely keep up.

Sitting inside the Monster Pickup Truck, Chen Ye felt like he was on a boat.

His whole body swayed continuously with the vehicle’s rocking.

If he weren’t a superhuman, Chen Ye would probably have thrown up by now.

Staring at the endless Sea of Chaotic Graves,

Chen Ye wasn’t sure when they would be able to get out of this strange territory.

Chen Ye’s mind was wavering back and forth.

He still had 220,000 Slaughter Points left.

200,000 of those Slaughter Points were completely untouchable.

They were set aside for upgrading his cultivation technique.

The remaining 20,000 Slaughter Points were all he could use for now.

Originally, Chen Ye had planned to use these 20,000 Slaughter Points to upgrade the truck’s battery capacity.

After all, with only twelve kilowatt-hours of battery capacity, forget about the migration life ahead, just getting through this Sea of Chaotic Graves alone seemed impossible.

Luckily, while the Monster Pickup Truck was running on electricity, the solar charging system was charging at the same time.

But the current situation…

Once Gong Yong’s kerosene lamp lost its effect, the lights would become the Monster Pickup Truck’s only barrier.

He couldn’t worry about whether the others lived or died.

Right now, he had to ensure his own survival.

The Monster Pickup Truck’s battery capacity was important.

Inside the truck, Chen Ye felt like his brains were being shaken into a paste.

His whole body rocked back and forth and side to side with the vehicle.

In contrast, Chu Che and Sun Xixi’s vehicle was much better off.

Ding Dong’s cargo truck wasn’t in great shape either.

But Chen Ye noticed that Zhou Xiaoxiao had already gotten off and started walking.

Ding Dong was driving, and even with only one left arm, that woman could still drive without any problem.

Maybe it was because of the Boxer Sequence’s physical constitution.

That woman’s face showed no signs of discomfort.

Xu Lina had also gotten off Bus Number Seven.

The person driving had been switched to her sister, the tall and slender Lai Baiwei.

But that woman’s expression wasn’t great either.

After driving for a while, someone else went up to take over.

There was no way anyone could stay sitting in the vehicles right now.

Many survivors, after getting off the vehicles, vomited all over the ground.

The condition of the other vehicles was about the same.

With empty vehicles, the speed of these few cars had increased a little.

But facing the boundless graveyard, this speed increase was still very limited.

Iron Lion acted as the team’s human-shaped rescue tool.

Whenever a vehicle got stuck, that guy would just step up and give it a kick.

He would kick a big dent into the damaged body while also pushing the vehicle out of the stuck point.

Under the illumination of the self-illuminating vehicles, the convoy was still safe for now.

But those resentful stares in the darkness, and those Anomalies’ expressions,

ultimately filled them with unease.

Chen Ye couldn’t get out of the truck.

If he got out, there would be no one to drive for him.

Of course, he could call Xu Lina over to drive for him.

But that woman was also a superhuman now, and there were many secrets in the Monster Pickup Truck.

Chen Ye didn’t want that woman to get too close to his life.

Even though Xu Lina had never done anything to betray him,

Chen Ye still couldn’t see Xu Lina as one of his own.

A naturally suspicious guy—it was just too hard for him to fully trust anyone.

The convoy had been slow to begin with.

Now that people couldn’t ride in the vehicles, walking made things even slower.

Even though the survivors quickened their pace, it still wasn’t enough to shake off the ever-increasing Anomalies.

At this speed, there was no way to escape the Anomalies of the Sea of Chaotic Graves.

Of course, if Chu Che and Sun Xixi didn’t care about these ordinary people,

given the speed of their two vehicles, they might still be able to shake off these things from the Sea of Chaotic Graves.

But, setting aside what Sun Xixi would do,

Chu Che would definitely not do that.

Over a hundred people…

Chen Ye looked at those who had gotten off the vehicles and were walking on foot.

Then he looked at Sun Xixi and Chu Che, who were at the very front of the convoy.

Their vehicles had already stopped.

They were waiting for the rest of the convoy to catch up quickly.

Chen Ye was calculating in his mind.

To take so many people out of this Sea of Chaotic Graves…

was very difficult.

This time, even though there hadn’t been a battle yet,

the trouble the convoy was facing was no less than any other time.

Maybe… the superhumans of the convoy wouldn’t die.

But once the protective barrier of the self-illumination was gone, it would probably become a living hell in the next second.

Trying to save these people was undoubtedly a pipe dream.

What lay before Chen Ye now was a multiple-choice question.

Should he keep the Slaughter Points to upgrade the truck’s battery capacity?

Increasing battery capacity would ensure the Monster Pickup Truck’s self-preservation ability.

Those lights were the final guarantee.

Or should he upgrade the Monster Pickup Truck’s off-road performance?

Improving the truck’s performance would increase its speed through the Sea of Chaotic Graves, which would also be a huge help in escaping this place.

It would greatly enhance his own safety.

Or maybe do nothing and just upgrade the cultivation technique directly.

Looking outside through the protective netting on the window,

the shadows seemed to have increased a lot more.

It was as if someone had draped a layer of dark clouds over the graveyard.

And the convoy was like a sharp arrow piercing through those clouds.

“System…”

Chen Ye gritted his teeth and called out the System.

Chen Ye decided to fully upgrade the Monster Pickup Truck’s off-road performance.

Everything was urgent, but compared to that, upgrading the battery capacity could be delayed a little.

And upgrading the cultivation technique had to at least wait until they got out of this Sea of Chaotic Graves.

What three differential locks for off-roading, and shock absorbers, and anti-roll systems, and so on…

As his whole body swayed continuously with the vehicle, Chen Ye still didn’t forget to confirm the System’s upgrade plan.

In the end, the upgrade plan the System gave was to improve the Monster Pickup Truck’s off-road performance.

It required a total of 40,000 Slaughter Points.

The time needed was two days.

Two days?

The hell…

Distant water won’t quench a present fire.

Anyway, no matter which upgrade plan he chose,

it all required time.

By comparison, upgrading the off-road performance actually required the least amount of time.

Gritting his teeth, Chen Ye clicked confirm.

Chen Ye didn’t know if this decision was the right one.

But… when it came down to it, a choice had to be made.

Having a choice was always better than having no choice at all.
