Chapter 6: Cruel and Merciless

When Chen Ye escaped from Jiangcheng, he had heard people say it before.

Anomalies couldn't be killed, only Sequence Superpowers could contend against Anomalies.

Sequence Superpowers were humanity's last hope against Anomalies.

Along the way, people in the vehicle convoy had also been saying this.

He just never expected that someone in their convoy was actually a Sequence Superpower user.

The two-meter-tall giant had always seemed quite peculiar among normal people.

But now!

That two-meter-tall giant had transformed into a three-meter-tall muscular devil man.

If this wasn't a Sequence Superpower, Chen Ye couldn't think of any other explanation.

The entire food section instantly became a battlefield.

It was only then that Chen Ye understood why this Sequence Superpower user had been so terrified of the white-dressed woman earlier.

The muscular devil man roared and swung his fist at the White Dress Scissor Woman.

But the White Dress Scissor Woman easily caught it with one hand.

If that punch had landed on a human body, Chen Ye had no doubt it would turn someone into a mist of blood.

Yet this emaciated, dried-up White Dress Scissor Woman possessed incomprehensible superhuman strength.

The White Dress Scissor Woman gripped the muscular devil man's fist like she was kneading dough.

It was complete domination!

Chen Ye watched, utterly dumbfounded!

This... wasn't working either!

The muscular devil man showed pain on his face, his body slightly bending under the other's sinister laughter.

Chen Ye didn't know what he was thinking at that moment, but he directly raised his Hand Crossbow and fired an arrow at the White Dress Scissor Woman.

The crossbow bolt shot straight toward the White Dress Scissor Woman's face, hidden beneath her long hair.

The arrow lodged firmly in the hair behind the White Dress Scissor Woman's face, but had absolutely no effect.

The white-dressed woman slightly turned her head to look at Chen Ye.

Being stared at by the white-dressed woman, Chen Ye felt his entire body shiver.

"Fuck you!!"

The muscular devil man moved, his other fist smashing hard toward the White Dress Scissor Woman's face, directly driving the crossbow bolt into her face.

A piece of information flashed before Chen Ye's eyes.

He had no time to check the system notification.

Under Chen Ye's terrified gaze.

The muscular devil man's punch also didn't cause any damage to the White Dress Scissor Woman.

The White Dress Scissor Woman's body didn't even sway.

Her slender arm shook slightly, effortlessly throwing the three-meter-tall body flying, crashing through countless shelves.

This was an Anomaly!

The Sequence Superpower, hailed as humanity's miracle, was nothing but a ragdoll before the White Dress Scissor Woman.

In just a few months, humans had been driven out of cities to become nomads, forced to live in constant escape.

They were the instigators of this disaster!

"You bitch, I'm going to tear you apart!"

With an angry roar, a massive body jumped out from the collapsed shelves, charging toward the White Dress Scissor Woman.

A faint blood aura surrounded the massive body's surface.

This vitality also exceeded Chen Ye's estimation.

The scales in Chen Ye's heart tipped toward this big fool again.

Even after all that, this guy was completely unharmed.

Indeed, Sequence Superpowers were Sequence Superpowers!

However, this guy still wasn't running despite all this - he must have brain problems.

Well then, if you're not running, I am!

Chen Ye never considered running away to be humiliating.

Even someone as powerful as Old Devil Han would run like the wind when encountering strong enemies!

While this big fool was fighting the White Dress Scissor Woman, he would escape far away.

As long as he reached sunlight, the Anomalies wouldn't dare pursue.

Chen Ye hoisted his backpack and sprinted like mad.

"Lady Moon, shines on the coffin bed, little brother waits for candy, crying his heart out~~~"

The familiar eerie child's voice sounded in Chen Ye's ear.

Chen Ye felt something grab his ankle.

Looking down, he saw a pale child with a creepy smile staring right at you.

"I want candy, I want candy!"

The child smiled eerily.

Chen Ye's footsteps became increasingly sluggish.

It's over!

That was the only thought in Chen Ye's mind.

Suddenly he saw scattered candy all over the ground from the toppled shelves.

Chen Ye quickly grabbed several pieces of candy and handed them over: "Candy, here's candy for you!"

The Paper Crying Child froze, seemingly not expecting Chen Ye to actually produce candy.

It seemed reluctant to accept, but some kind of rule seemed to force it to take the candy from Chen Ye.

The pale little hand released Chen Ye's calf and reached out to take the candy.

While the Paper Crying Child was taking the candy, Chen Ye quickly ran toward the supermarket entrance.

Survivors screaming for their parents were everywhere.

Chen Ye glanced back and saw the Paper Crying Child unwrapping the candy.

In the distance, the muscular devil man was thrown flying again, but quickly stood up and charged toward the Scissor Woman again.

Just like an indestructible cockroach from cartoons.

It seemed Sequence Superpowers weren't completely useless after all.

They were still quite strong.

Or rather, that White Dress Scissor Woman was just too strong!

The sense of crisis in his heart relaxed slightly - at least he was safe for now.

Chen Ye scanned left and right several times, directly pulled out two large bags from the collapsed shelves, turned and quickly left.

Eerie, cold laughter came from behind intermittently.

Mixed with the muscular devil man's angry roars.

He ran all the way to the supermarket entrance in one breath.

When Chen Ye stood under sunlight again, he finally felt like he had returned to the human world.

Screams and terrified shouts still came from inside the supermarket.

"Save me, I don't want to die!"

"No, don't come closer!"

"Wah wah wah..."

Eerie shadows were everywhere around.

Many survivors running would be pulled back into the darkness by eerie figures.

All the Anomalies in Xinghua Town had been drawn by the crowd.

A line of sunlight blocked the Anomalies from charging out.

The pursuing Anomalies in the darkness waved their claws and fangs at Chen Ye, but it was too dark to see their appearances clearly.

Chen Ye breathed heavily.

Feeling like his lungs were about to explode.

Sweat soaked his hair, sticking tightly to his face.

Chen Ye plopped down in the cargo bed, casually throwing the two bags he brought out into it.

If it were his old bicycle, these things probably wouldn't have fit at all.

"Chen Ye, why are you sitting in our vehicle? Get down!"

Just then, Chen Ye suddenly heard a very unfriendly female voice.

Chen Ye turned and saw Yoga Pants Woman Jiajia and fitness trainer Qiangzi standing not far away, each carrying two bundles.

Seeing the side door nearby, Chen Ye suddenly understood - these two weren't completely stupid after all, they had probably found this side door and entered the supermarket through it.

Now they had safely emerged too.

Pretty good luck.

However, these two large bundles now belonged to him.

"Chen Ye, what do you think you're doing? Trying to steal our vehicle?"

"I'm telling you, Chen Ye, don't think we're afraid of you? Get off my vehicle right now, and I'll pretend this never happened."

Without saying a word, Chen Ye directly loaded his Hand Crossbow.

"Brother Ye, let's talk this out! Let's talk this out!"

The fitness trainer Qiangzi beside him panicked a bit.

"Qiangzi, why are you so cowardly? I don't believe he can do anything to us!"

"Whoosh!"

Just as Yoga Pants Woman Jiajia said this, a crossbow bolt flashed before their eyes, piercing Qiangzi's throat.

Qiangzi's eyes widened suddenly, his bundles dropping to the ground, both hands clutching his neck, looking at Chen Ye in disbelief.

Blood splattered all over Yoga Pants' face.

Yoga Pants was also stunned, as if someone had cast a paralysis spell on her, trembling like a sieve, not daring to move a muscle.

A few drops of liquid formed on the ground.

"You... you..."

Perhaps because the apocalypse had come too quickly, only a few months had passed.

Therefore, many people hadn't fully adapted to the survival rules of the apocalypse.

The Yoga Pants Woman before him was exactly like this.

The reason Chen Ye killed the fitness trainer first.

Was simply because compared to the Yoga Pants Woman, this physically strong fitness trainer posed a greater threat to him.

Although his personality was somewhat cowardly.

But if it came to a life-or-death struggle, who would win was still uncertain.

A piece of information flashed before Chen Ye's eyes.

Chen Ye froze for a moment, then without time to think further, began loading his Hand Crossbow.

"Chen Ye... you... don't..."

Just as he was about to raise the Hand Crossbow.

"Ah!~~~"

Yoga Pants Woman screamed, turned and tried to run back.

Compared to Anomalies, Yoga Pants Woman felt Chen Ye before her was even more terrifying.

That arrow just now - he hadn't hesitated at all.

"Whoosh!"

The crossbow bolt hit the wall and fell to the ground.

Yoga Pants Woman had already screamed and fled back through the supermarket's side door.

"Ah~~"

Before Chen Ye could react, he heard the woman's scream again.

"Chen Ye, save me, save me!"

The woman stumbled back out.

Now the woman was crying with tears and snot, all her previous arrogance gone, her face full of terror, her somewhat attractive face deathly pale.

Behind the woman stood a figure in tattered clothes.

Just as the woman was about to escape into the sunlight.

The figure in tattered clothes grabbed the woman's hair and dragged her back into the darkness.

"Chen Ye, I was wrong, please, save me! Save me!"

"Chen Ye, I was wrong, I don't want to die yet!"

"Please, I can still be useful!"

"I can still be useful, I still want to live, I don't want to die!"

"Chen Ye~~~ I... I have children at home, I can't die~~~"

"Chen Ye~~~ you're so heartless!"

No matter how the woman begged and struggled, the figure behind her still slowly, firmly dragged her back into the darkness.

Chen Ye just watched, slowly backing away, retreating into the sunlight.

The woman's pleas had no effect on him whatsoever.

Until the woman completely disappeared into the darkness, only a trail of her struggle remaining on the ground!

Only then did Chen Ye realize his entire body was soaked in cold sweat.

He threw the two bags into the cargo bed.

By now, many survivors who had just escaped were around.

But no one was willing to stop and speak up for justice.

These people frantically loaded supplies onto their vehicles, then turned and fled.

The surroundings were filled with panicked people fleeing, no one paying them any attention.

Chen Ye stood up and pedaled the tricycle away.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to pick up those two bundles and throw them into the vehicle.
