Chapter 83: That pretty boy is the most cunning

"No!!!"

The three of them spoke in unison.

And they cast contemptuous glances at Chen Ye.

Chen Ye was holding back a curse in his heart, unsure whether he should say it right now.

Damn it, it's the apocalypse already, why are you all playing at courtesy and humility?

In Chen Ye's view, backstabbing each other was normal in these times.

Whether they could actually pull it off was the question that needed discussion.

But at least they should have the intention.

"Alright, Yezi, you're not entirely wrong either. While we shouldn't harbor intentions to harm others, we must remain vigilant against being harmed."

"Everyone, keep your wits about you tomorrow morning if you have anything you want to exchange."

"This team of Old Man Mo's doesn't seem simple to me. They probably have quite a few good items, maybe even Wonders."

Chu Che began summarizing.

Sun Xixi crossed her snow-white legs, her expression thoughtful: "Although we don't plan to backstab anyone, we still need to prevent others from backstabbing us."

"Moreover, this Old Man Mo seems cunning and sly to me. We need to be extra careful."

Chen Ye nodded, finally someone who supported him. As expected of a woman he had a relationship with.

Iron Lion said with a dark expression: "That child in their team makes me very uncomfortable."

"You don't know this, but during dinner just now, that child didn't eat a single bite."

"The one who wrapped themselves in a cloak."

Chen Ye became interested: "What do you mean? That child doesn't eat?"

In the apocalypse, there are people who don't like to eat?

This isn't normal.

Very abnormal!

Iron Lion frowned in thought: "I don't know, but during dinner, that child went out for a while, and I curiously followed."

"Guess what I saw?"

The three of them looked at Iron Lion simultaneously but didn't respond.

Iron Lion rubbed his head and said with lingering fear: "I saw that child go find someone from their team and smash that person's fingers one by one, just listening to that person's screams!"

"If that person's mouth hadn't been sealed, you might have heard it too."

"That child's expression... was strange!"

"Like... like... I can't really describe it."

Iron Lion's face looked terrible, clearly still uncomfortable recalling the scene he had secretly witnessed.

After Iron Lion finished speaking, Captain Chu Che's expression also became hesitant.

He seemed to be pondering something.

Suddenly his face changed slightly, and he said hesitantly: "I think I know what sequence that child belongs to."

"This should be the Demon Sequence!"

"Demon Sequence?"

The pink-haired girl said in surprise.

"Exactly, the Demon Sequence, said to be the sequence superpower most suited for the apocalypse."

"Superhumans of this sequence cannot eat normal food. If they eat human food, they'll experience strong rejection reactions. Human delicacies are like poison to this sequence."

"The Demon Sequence feeds on human negative emotions."

"What Iron Lion saw was probably him feeding."

The people present looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

There was actually such an eerie sequence.

"Not only that, negative emotions are also the fuel for the Demon Sequence to enhance their power. The more concentrated the negative emotions in a place, the faster the Demon Sequence improves their strength!"

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

This was the apocalypse after all, negative emotions were practically everywhere.

No wonder Chu Che said the Demon Sequence was the most suitable for the apocalypse.

No need to worry about food, and able to rapidly improve strength.

This was practically the chosen one of this version.

Even Chen Ye felt somewhat troubled. If he didn't have the system on him, encountering such a sequence superhuman would probably make him turn and run immediately.

They wouldn't get the method to enhance superhuman abilities until tomorrow noon.

There were too many things that needed upgrading recently - whether it was vehicles, Wonders, or his own strength.

But Slaughter Points were always insufficient.

And he had awakened his sequence too recently.

If given some time, beating up such version favorites wouldn't be a problem either.

But that was just wishful thinking.

Things don't change according to one's will.

In the early stages, he could only learn from Old Devil Han and lay low.

"Moreover, that child might even be Sequence 2."

Chu Che said this.

"How can you tell?"

Chen Ye was rather curious.

"Did you see the cloak on him? That's his demon wings."

"Every Demon Sequence grows wings when they reach Sequence 2. Normally the wings evolve into a cloak wrapping around their body, only transforming into wings during combat."

Chu Che's words made everyone sink into thought.

Chen Ye curiously glanced at Captain Chu a few more times.

Clearly, Captain Chu was quite knowledgeable about the Demon Sequence.

"This is quite interesting. I'd really like to test who's stronger between two Sequence 2s."

The pink-haired girl put down her crossed legs and licked her lips.

Having swallowed the demon fruit, the pink-haired girl had the strongest talent among them and was the top fighter of the Fair Convoy.

She had never fought against a superhuman of the same level before.

Now encountering another Sequence 2, the pink-haired girl was somewhat eager to try.

Moreover, the pink-haired girl had been working hard recently, and she was quite eager to test how much her strength had improved.

"We should still be careful. If we can avoid conflict, we should try not to start one."

Captain Chu clearly didn't want any conflicts with Old Man Mo's group.

With Iron Lion losing combat capability, only Chen Ye and Sun Xixi could fight.

This was undoubtedly the weakest period for the Fair Convoy.

This was also one reason why Captain Chu didn't want conflicts.

"If we really have to fight, it's not like we don't have a chance!!"

Chen Ye rubbed his chin, his eyes flickering.

"What do you mean?"

Chu Che turned to look at Chen Ye.

Chen Ye chuckled darkly, appearing rather sinister: "Haven't you noticed that this camel train isn't as peaceful as imagined? That plain-looking woman seems to be at odds with several others."

Reminded by Chen Ye, the others recalled how the sharp-tempered woman had gotten up and left midway through dinner.

"In my opinion, I should go talk to that woman now. Maybe we could..."

"Stop right there, Yezi. Don't think about backstabbing anymore. The best outcome is to trade smoothly without causing trouble!"

Chu Che quickly interrupted Chen Ye.

Chen Ye pouted, grumbling inwardly.

Captain Chu, this is the apocalypse. Even if you don't want to fight, does that mean the other side feels the same?

Captain, you're still too naive.

"Sigh... alright then, let's hear what the other side thinks first."

Captain Chu took out that radio.

When Chen Ye saw the radio again, he couldn't help feeling envious.

He didn't know before what number 01257 represented.

But now, Chen Ye clearly understood what this number meant.

When Sun Xixi saw the radio, she blushed slightly for some reason, her expression somewhat unnatural.

Fortunately, no one noticed her, which allowed the young girl to relax slightly.

Chu Che fiddled with the radio a few times.

"Zzzz..."

"Captain, in my opinion, among that convoy, that pretty boy is the most sinister and cunning. We need to be extra careful around that kid!"

It started with this sentence.

The other three simultaneously looked at Chen Ye.

Pretty boy?

Iron Lion was a big fool, and the pink-haired girl was female.

Naturally, it couldn't be referring to them.

"Why are you looking at me? Captain Chu is about the same age as me, and he's paler than me. The pretty boy must be referring to him."

"Besides, I didn't speak all night and was very well-behaved. How could it possibly be me?"

Chen Ye argued sophistically.

In his heart, he was also grumbling: That bastard, could it really be referring to me?

The others also felt Chen Ye made sense and turned their gazes to Chu Che.

Chu Che's face turned as black as a pot bottom. Just as he was about to defend himself, the radio sounded again.

"Hmm... yes, that kid didn't say much all night. He seemed well-behaved, but his thief eyes were looking around everywhere, checking out our supplies several times."

"We need to be careful they might backstab us!"

Chen Ye: Damn you!
