Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 13 [Cat Blade Pig-Slaughtering Knife]

【Cat Blade Pig Slaughtering Knife】

[Ranking of offerings: 9633]

[Ability 1: A butcher knife incorporating the sharpness of a monstrous cat's blade, enhancing its sharpness, resilience, and effectiveness against supernatural beings.]

[Ability Two: Intimidates creatures that resemble pigs or cats, significantly increasing damage dealt to them.]

"That's it?!" Chu Sheng looked at the two abilities he gained from fusing the Cat Blade Pig Slaughtering Knife with the Ghost Cat's blade, and for a moment he didn't know whether to praise or belittle them.

These two abilities are, in a way, useful but not very effective, yet they also have some use.

If used.

This can serve as a substitute for an upgrade, since it's still more powerful than an upgrade.

However, Chu Sheng's joy was short-lived, as another notification appeared.

[Sacrifice: Extraordinary items; every use comes at a price!]

[The cost of using the Cat Blade Pig Slaughtering Knife: It combines the sharp blade of a monstrous cat with the habits of that cat. As a cat's weapon, it needs to be sharpened daily before it can be used.]

[But if you are Chu Sheng, there is no cost to using it!]

Chu Sheng's brows furrowed as he looked at the cost of use, but his furrowed brows relaxed slightly when he saw the final prompt.

This butcher's knife still seems to have a human side.

It was worth it to upgrade it from a worn-out, rusty pig-slaughtering knife into a sacrificial offering.

It was because of the butcher's knife that Chu Sheng learned that sacrificial offerings actually came at a price.

However, since it's called a sacrificial offering, it's normal that its use would come at a price; otherwise, why would the word "sacrifice" be used?

The sacrifice is the price paid for it.

The butcher's knife had become a sacrificial offering, and Chu Sheng had no intention of trying it. He put it back into the scabbard he had made at his waist, and his gaze turned to the remaining cat's eye.

A pair of scarlet cat eyes lay quietly inside the jar.

Chu Sheng stared at it, thinking for a long time but still couldn't figure out how to use it.

These cat-eye eyes are undoubtedly made of extraordinary materials, but Chu Sheng really couldn't think of how to use them.

You can't just gouge out your own eyeballs, fuse them with a cat's eye, and then stick them back in, can you?

Eyeballs aren't something you can just plug in and use.

"Never mind, I'll keep it for now. Maybe I'll figure out how to use it later."

Chu Sheng put the cat's eye away again. Although his ability could fuse extraordinary materials and items into sacrificial offerings, he had a vague feeling about it.

Extraordinary materials need to be placed on suitable items, otherwise they will become offerings and their ranking will be very low.

For example, his pig-slaughtering knife and the cat claw blade are not a good match. Although they are both compatible in terms of sharpness, they are not compatible in other aspects. Therefore, after becoming a sacrificial object, the pig-slaughtering knife was ranked 9633rd.

Chu Sheng didn't know if this ranking was high or low, but he figured it was relatively low, considering there were so many offerings ahead of him.

After fussing around in the tent for a long time, Chu Sheng finally went out again.

By this time, most people had already finished breakfast. When they saw Chu Sheng come out of the tent with his silver-white hair, all the survivors looked on with envy.

Sequence Extraordinary!

A new sequence of transcendents appeared right under their noses.

Ordinary people and those with sequence abilities have very different survival experiences in the apocalypse.

Three people mustered their courage and walked towards Chu Sheng.

Chu Sheng merely glanced at them a few times without saying a word.

"Hello. My name is Zhou Dun," the leading man introduced himself.

Chu Sheng didn't even lift his eyelids, and gave a nasal "Hmm," "What is it?" Zhou Dun seemed to have been prepared for his coldness, and upon hearing his words, he asked somewhat awkwardly, "May I ask how your sequence was awakened?"

His words made everyone around him prick up their ears.

There's a ready-made Sequence Ability user here. What if we could replicate his awakening process?

Chu Sheng smiled at Zhou Dun, but there was no warmth in his eyes. "What's the benefit of telling you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Dun gestured to the two people beside him, and then all three of them took out a few small items from their pockets.

Seeing this, Chu Sheng raised his eyelids slightly and stared at the things in their hands, which finally showed some change.

Seeing Chu Sheng's appearance, Zhou Dun breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "I know you can't just take your sequence awakening for nothing. These are the radios and tapes we collected before."

“I saw you exchanging supplies by the campfire yesterday. You got a lot of items, so I guess you’ll want this.”

Chu Sheng wasn't surprised that they knew he had switched the supplies.

After all, he had seen An Xi and the others dividing and exchanging supplies before.

Yesterday, when the team leader and the others were distributing supplies, they didn't intend to hide it.

"There's no fixed method for sequence awakening. Aren't you afraid of wasting your time?" Chu Sheng retorted.

Zhou Dun was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know if it will be a waste of money. Although I know it's probably useless, what if it is?"

"Okay." Chu Sheng didn't stand on ceremony and took the radio and tape directly from their hands.

"While collecting supplies in the town, I encountered a strange cat. When I fought back, I awakened part of my powers and killed the strange cat. I slept through the night and fully awakened this morning."

Chu Sheng himself didn't know how he awakened; the Heavenly Craft Sequence was simply awakened after he took a nap.

However, since he demonstrated his ability to upgrade during the day, the only explanation for his awakening can be attributed to the strange cat.

As for whether they would try to awaken by seeking out the supernatural, Chu Sheng didn't care.

What do his life or death have to do with these people?
He wouldn't kill someone on his own initiative, but that doesn't mean he would save someone.

Upon hearing Chu Sheng's words, Zhou Dun and the others' expressions turned somewhat unpleasant.

They dared not try Chu Sheng's method of awakening.

It's one thing to passively encounter something strange, but to actively seek out something strange is like an old man going to the toilet—asking for death!

Chu Sheng ignored the three of them and instead packed up the tent, throwing it along with the supplies he had taken from An Xi the day before into the truck bed of his motorcycle.

As Chu Sheng walked away, the two men beside Zhou Dun pursed their lips. "Brother Zhou, what do we do?"

Zhou Dun was silent for a moment, then shook his head. "We cannot try his method."

"Sequence awakening should truly be uncontrollable."

During their time with the convoy, Zhou Dun and his two companions exchanged supplies or food with several sequence ability users for ways to awaken their sequence abilities.

Without exception, none of them could learn it.

It's not that you wake up after a good night's sleep, or that you suddenly wake up. Even Zhu Qing and Chu Sheng experienced strange and unexpected awakenings.

Although it seems that two of the five sequence ability users encountered strange awakenings, Zhou Dun wasn't that stupid.

Ignoring the base number is simply being dishonest!
If a supernatural being could truly awaken between life and death, the world would be very different now; the number of people killed by such supernatural beings would be in the hundreds of millions.

"Ah Ling, Ah Qian, let's leave it at that for now. Just survive for now, and we'll see if we can awaken later."

Zhou Dun spoke to the two girls beside him.

“Okay, we’ll do as you say.” Li Qian nodded, without objecting.

Li Ling nodded in agreement, "If it weren't for Brother Zhou, my sister and I would have died long ago."

Hearing their words, Zhou Dun felt a sense of relief. "Don't say such things. We grew up together. You are like my sisters. As long as I'm alive, you will definitely be fine."
