Although the two convoys couldn't stand each other, overall, things remained peaceful.

When the first rays of sunlight streamed in from outside the unfinished building,

the survivors of both convoys started bustling about.

The superhumans didn't exactly get along well,

but the regular survivors got along just fine. Sometimes, when survivors from the two convoys ran into each other, they would even exchange greetings.

Unlike the superhumans, who were at each other's throats,

ordinary people didn't have all those hidden agendas.

In fact, the survivors of the Shepherd Convoy even envied the members of the Fair Convoy.

At the very least, the Fair Convoy survivors' mental state was much better than that of the Shepherd Convoy.

Some Shepherd Convoy survivors even witnessed with their own eyes that the few Fair Convoy members who had stockpiled supplies were living far better lives than they were.

After just two days of staying at the unfinished building,

the surrounding weeds had been largely eaten away by the Shepherd Convoy's cattle, horses, and sheep.

Especially those three giant oxen.

They could even chew up and swallow some of the smaller trees.

From the moment they saw the Shepherd Convoy, these livestock following the convoy had done nothing but eat.

Golden sunlight fell on Chen Ye's eyelashes, tinging the lashes of his left eye with gold.

When he opened his eyes, his blood-red pupils, bathed in the golden light, actually seemed to hold a trace of divinity, yet lacked a hint of humanity.

Last night, Chen Ye had been on guard duty again.

What could he do? It wasn't his fault that he genuinely couldn't sleep.

The side effects of the Blood Moon Lord were constantly tormenting him.

If it weren't for his superhuman physique, he would have collapsed long ago.

A thin layer of frost had formed on his clothes.

According to the seasonal division before the apocalypse, it should be winter now.

In some places, the seasons had become chaotic and reversed, but in others, they still followed the pre-apocalyptic pattern.

Although it hadn't snowed, the weather was still a bit cold.

The Fair Convoy survivors no longer had enough warm clothing.

Many people kept rubbing their hands and stomping their feet as they crawled out of their tents, trying to get some warmth that way.

They had gotten plenty of cold-weather gear back in Rong City,

but some of those people had died, and others had fallen behind.

As for the rest, during the escape, those clothes had long since been lost somewhere.

As for those who had been in the convoy since Rong City and still kept their original clothes,

there weren't many in the entire convoy.

When these people took out their clothes and put them on, they certainly made quite a few others envious.

Of course, since the Shepherd Convoy had just collected some supplies recently,

they had plenty of clothing.

In fact, they were very willing to trade some clothes with the Fair Convoy.

But these guys wanted food in exchange.

Therefore, no one in the Fair Convoy was willing to make that deal.

"Looks like gathering supplies is urgent. If this keeps up, someone's going to freeze to death!"

Chu Che looked worriedly at the shivering people in the convoy.

"Haven't found a suitable target yet?" Chen Ye asked.

"There are two big cities nearby, but they're too dangerous. I can sense something very powerful there."

"Nothing we can handle at our current level."

Chen Ye sighed. "A year ago, we were weak. Now our convoy has three Sequence 4s, and we're still tiptoeing around like this. It's really..."

Chu Che patted Chen Ye on the shoulder. "Without Sequence 9, we're just bigger ants in front of the Anomalies."

"Back then, we had all that civilization, but we still couldn't withstand them."

"Now we're far worse off than that human civilization."

Chu Che was filled with emotion as he said this.

"Isn't there a Sequence 0 above Sequence 9?"

"Sequence 0... might just be a legend. From what I know, Sequence 9 is god. Maybe Sequence 0 is just some people's speculation."

"As for whether it's real or not, I don't know."

Chu Che's eyes were lost.

Sequences, superhumans—there was far too much that humans didn't understand.

Chen Ye didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Ninety-nine percent of human civilization had been destroyed. Many things simply couldn't be verified, and might just be human conjecture.

Chu Che said the highest Sequence was Sequence 9,

but Chen Ye had heard that there was a Sequence 0 above Sequence 9.

Who was right and who was wrong?

He had no way to judge either, because he was just a small fry who hadn't even crossed Sequence 3.

As Chu Che said this, he glanced over at the Shepherd Convoy, his eyes also wandering over their supplies.

He wanted those supplies too.

"How about we just do it?"

Chen Ye's voice was like that of a demon.

Chu Che shuddered, quickly averted his gaze, and warned Chen Ye sternly, "Yezi, I'm warning you, don't even think about it."

"Within three days, I'll definitely find a suitable target."

"Besides, we're far from being completely desperate."

Chen Ye shrugged. "Just keep playing the saint, then."

Chu Che looked at Chen Ye seriously. "At least we're still human, not beasts."

Chen Ye lazily curled his lip, offering no opinion on Chu Che's words.

It was the apocalypse.

Hadn't he seen plenty of beasts?

Besides, they had so many supplies. Sharing half would be fine, right?

Just half!

They probably wouldn't be mad.

The two convoys busied themselves in an orderly fashion.

Eating breakfast, packing up.

Around ten in the morning,

the sun had already climbed high in the sky.

The warm sunlight slightly dispelled some of the chill.

The temperature had risen a bit too.

The expressions on the survivors' faces looked noticeably more relaxed.

Chen Ye's Monster Pickup Truck was already fully charged.

Even if the solar charging panel's efficiency ratio reached one hundred percent, it would just be wasted.

Gong Yong couldn't even manage to install the extra batteries Chen Ye had collected earlier.

If he could get his hands on some Slaughter Points, he might be able to adapt the batteries to the Monster Pickup Truck.

Both convoys were now standing downstairs.

Even if the superhumans of the two convoys didn't get along,

at least aside from them, the others didn't have such big conflicts.

The feeder Zhan Lei was completely hidden in his hoodie, only his eyes visible, glaring fixedly at Chen Ye.

Chen Ye was smoking a cigarette, looking utterly unbothered, as if he didn't care about the guy at all.

This infuriated Zhan Lei, who clenched and unclenched his fists repeatedly.

At that moment, Chu Che was still exchanging pleasantries with the Shepherd Convoy captain.

Two days ago, when the convoys first met, Chu Che and the other captain had swapped captain's notebooks.

Today they were parting ways, so it was time to return the notebooks.

Just then,

Chen Ye suddenly saw the sexy woman in the pencil skirt striding over.

This sudden move immediately put the Fair Convoy members on high alert.

Chen Ye took a couple of steps back, putting the others in front of him.

This wasn't because Chen Ye was a coward or afraid of this woman,

but because he simply wasn't good at close combat.

Attacking the enemy's strength with one's own weakness was never a smart move.

Based on last night's intel, this woman was very strong in close combat.

Correspondingly, the centaur guy opposite, and that guy hiding in the hoodie, followed behind the woman.

No matter what Jiang Rou wanted to do, showing unconditional support for their teammate in front of outsiders was the Shepherd Convoy's tacit understanding.

And of course, it was also the Fair Convoy's.

The pink-haired girl's eyes were like lightning. Though she had cursed Chen Ye millions of times in her heart, she still gripped her sword hilt and stared at Jiang Rou.

Iron Lion stood shoulder to shoulder with the pink-haired girl, his whole body brimming with fighting spirit.

As for Gong Yong, that guy had long since slipped off to the side.

Xu Lina also stood beside Chen Ye. Even though she was only Sequence 1, now was not the time to back down.

Ding Dong stood on Chen Ye's other side as well.

"Jiang Rou..."

Yang Han felt a headache coming on.

They were about to leave. Was this crazy woman going to stir up trouble again?

Jiang Rou raised her hand. "Captain Yang, relax. I just want to ask a few questions."

With that, Jiang Rou stared at Chen Ye, who was hidden behind Sun Xixi and Iron Lion, and said coldly, "You, come out here. I want to ask you something."

Chen Ye squinted, lit a cigarette, and replied just as rudely, "And why should I?"

Jiang Rou faltered for a moment, then sneered, "You act all tough, but I didn't think you'd be such a coward."

Chen Ye fired back, "You act all slutty, but I didn't think you'd be so brainless."

Chen Ye had expected a fight to break out after that remark.

But he didn't expect...

After Jiang Rou heard those words, her expression actually softened.

"Hmph, I didn't think you had such good taste."

"This mama has the capital to be slutty!"

With that, she deliberately thrust out her chest and showed off her long legs.

Chen Ye: "..."
