Chapter 90: Branch of the Titan Sequence

Chen Ye didn't want Iron Lion to die.

Even though outsiders described him as ruthless and cold-blooded.

But at the very least, he wouldn't harm Iron Lion without reason.

It's just that life is unpredictable.

Chen Ye didn't have foresight, and he was also a one-eyed guy.

He didn't know that person would suddenly attack Iron Lion.

Iron Lion's corpse lay there on the sand dune, with a clear blood line between his neck and head.

This big fool's head rested peacefully with closed eyes, as if he were just asleep.

Someone found a wooden board and wrote with a marker: "Wu Haifeng's Grave."

So Iron Lion's real name was Wu Haifeng.

He had always called him "big fool" before, and this guy never minded, just laughed foolishly.

This guy had also taught him a lot about Sequence Superpowers.

The pink-haired girl cried with tears and snot running down her face, her delicate little face now full of hatred, completely covered in mucus and tears.

Her wailing mouth had already formed strings of saliva.

Many survivors also stood before Wu Haifeng's grave shedding tears.

This was the first time Chen Ye felt sorrow.

He hadn't expected Iron Lion to die.

In the convoy, Iron Lion got along well with everyone.

When he first awakened, he had taken good care of Chen Ye.

Much of the knowledge about Sequence Superpowers had been told to him by Iron Lion.

When he was first recognized as having the Mechanic Sequence.

Chen Ye often tried to coax information out of Iron Lion.

This guy obviously knew it, but he still told Chen Ye everything he knew.

Even the secrets of the Titan Sequence, he revealed them all without reservation.

If Iron Lion hadn't died, Chen Ye might have considered him a brother.

For someone as heavily guarded as Chen Ye, this was quite remarkable.

"A-Che, it's getting late!"

Old Bao reminded from the side.

It was already 10 AM.

Chu Che didn't respond to Old Bao's words, instead looking at Chen Ye beside him.

"You shouldn't have been so reckless. At least you could have told me."

There was no blame in Chu Che's words, just calmness.

Chen Ye remained silent for a moment before saying: "You wouldn't have agreed!"

"If I had another chance, I would still take action!"

"Except I would warn Iron Lion in advance to hide properly!"

Chu Che also fell silent.

He naturally understood what Chen Ye meant.

If he had really known about Chen Ye's plan, he definitely wouldn't have agreed, and the two might even have had conflicts.

Chu Che was certainly not a soft person.

He knew about all those foot-traveling survivors being used as gecko tails to be severed before, and he hadn't stopped it either.

Their existence only bought more survival opportunities for others.

You could say it was necessary death.

Even if they didn't die, Chu Che didn't think he had the ability to protect so many people.

He was only Sequence 1.

From a completely rational analysis, Chu Che didn't think Chen Ye had done wrong either.

Without supplies, everyone would die.

The endless desert, who knew when they could get out.

Moreover, Mo Huairen and that young man were no good people.

Just look at the slavery system they created.

"You... are too ruthless!"

"Perhaps, among us, only you can survive to the end!"

"If one day I die, remember to burn some tea leaves for me every year!"

Chen Ye remained silent.

Chu Che sprinkled a cup of clear tea before Iron Lion, a few brown tea leaves scattering on the sand dune.

The Pu'er tea, usually precious as gold, was wasted just like that.

But Chu Che didn't feel the slightest bit of regret.

Chen Ye didn't speak, lit a cigarette, took two puffs, found it uninteresting, threw the unfinished cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out.

He checked the countdown.

Two hours left, and the deduction of cultivation methods would be completed.

Time was running late.

The desert temperature was slowly rising.

"We..."

Before Chen Ye could finish speaking.

Chu Che interrupted: "Wait a bit longer!"

"What?"

Chen Ye was confused!

Chu Che looked seriously at Iron Lion's corpse and said: "Do you know how many branch sequences the Titan Sequence has?"

Chen Ye didn't understand Chu Che's words.

"From what I know, Titan Sequence 1 is called Flesh and Blood Apprentice, but when reaching Sequence 2, the Titan Sequence has two branches."

"One is called Two-Headed Giant, the other is called Peeping Skull."

"The Peeping Skull grows a third eye on the forehead, and this eye has mystical functions."

"I once saw a document stating that Titan superhumans following this branch, if their sequence is high enough, the third eye left after death can even be directly used as a Wonder."

Chen Ye listened dumbfounded.

There was such a thing?

Even the pink-haired girl crying with snot and tears forgot her crying, listening intently to Chu Che's words.

"And the Two-Headed Giant..."

"Do you remember Iron Lion had two personalities, one was the Iron Lion we knew, the other was Iron Lion during battle!"

How could Chen Ye not remember.

Iron Lion's dual personality left a deep impression on him.

Every time they fought, Chen Ye suspected someone else had entered Iron Lion's body.

Chu Che stared intently at the massive body before him, light flickering in his eyes, looking very wise.

Actually, Chu Che's inner thoughts weren't as wise as his surface appearance suggested.

When he first saw Iron Lion's head being cut off, Chu Che had also panicked, also thought Iron Lion was definitely dead.

Only after calming down did he remember a document he'd seen before, describing the special characteristics of the Titan Sequence.

Actually, it wasn't just the Titan Sequence, every sequence was special.

"You mean... you mean... Iron Lion... will come back to life?"

Hearing their conversation, the pink-haired girl with her face covered in snot and tears suddenly looked up.

Others who had good relationships with Iron Lion also looked up, their eyes burning as they watched.

Chu Che thought for a moment, then said: "When Iron Lion previously displayed his second personality, he might have already been incubating the Two-Headed Giant branch."

"Perhaps..."

"Iron Lion won't come back to life, but rather never died in the first place!"

"He had his head cut off, how could he not be dead?"

A nearby survivor listening intently unconsciously spoke up.

Right after speaking, he seemed to realize he'd said the wrong thing, panic spreading across his face.

Chu Che didn't blame him, instead saying: "Sequence Superpowers are already beyond ordinary, every sequence has its own incredible aspects."

Iron Lion's corpse suddenly twisted.

A large bulge swelled up in his chest area.

It seemed like something wanted to burst out from his chest.

The surrounding survivors watched with pale faces, even those who liked Iron Lion stepped back to distance themselves, eyes filled with terror.

Only Chen Ye and a few others watched with strange light in their eyes, staring intently.

What happened next was simply horrifying.

A head struggled to burst out from Iron Lion's chest cavity.

But it seemed like countless hands inside the body tightly gripped this head, preventing it from breaking free.

From the struggling appearance, you could tell.

This was exactly like Iron Lion during battle.

And this head's position wasn't where the previous head had been, but beside that head.

Exactly as Chu Che had said.

This was... the Two-Headed Giant branch.

"ROAR!"

This head let out an angry roar, explosive energy bursting from its body, forcing the surrounding people back several meters.

It was also because of this roar that the newly emerged head finally broke free from the invisible shackles, successfully growing out.

This damn...

"Yezi, little girl, Chu Che, what the hell are you three standing around stupidly for, help me up!"

"Didn't you know I almost died?"

A rough, bold voice.

Well, definitely not the same flavor as the original Iron Lion.

The pink-haired girl's expression changed, she wasn't unfamiliar with this guy, having encountered him several times during battles before.

But...

As if noticing the pink-haired girl's hesitation.

This head laughed heartily: "I'm called Mad Lion, that Iron Lion guy isn't dead, he just needs a few more days to come out."

"So, Yezi, isn't the Titan Sequence awesome? Can't even die from getting your head chopped off."

"Remember this, as long as the Titan Sequence has one breath left, it means immortality!"

"I saw you looked a bit guilty earlier."

"Tsk tsk tsk... I never thought you, this ruthless bastard, would feel guilty!"

Sure enough, this guy wasn't as likable as the previous Iron Lion.

Completely arrogant beyond measure.

Really hope this guy doesn't appear often in the future.

Fortunately, the real Iron Lion still needs a few days.

Chen Ye's face darkened.

Damn...

The persona I worked so hard to build.

"Shut your damn mouth, it's getting late, get in the vehicle quickly."

One hour and forty-five minutes left, and the deduction will be completed.

This time, no one died.

And they gained so many supplies.

Even got those long-desired bull bones.

Plus a Sequence Superhuman.

The Fair Convoy was finally doing well.
