"You're absolutely ruthless, Yezi! Xu Lina has feelings for you, don't tell me you don't know that?"
The Pink-haired Girl teased mockingly.
Chen Ye curled his lips: "Do you think I'm stupid? Being nice to me? She's just eyeing my resources! I'm not narcissistic enough to think every woman likes me."
On this point, Chen Ye remained very clear-headed.
Previously, Zhou Lan had seemed to show some goodwill toward him, but that was also because he had awakened Sequence Superpowers.
Love and romance? How could they compare to survival!
"You... no wonder you don't have a girlfriend!"
The Pink-haired Girl grew somewhat angry.
"Love? Even dogs wouldn't bother with it!"
The Pink-haired Girl's face flushed slightly red from being choked by Chen Ye's words, her hand reaching for the hilt at her waist.
Though she didn't know why, she simply detested Chen Ye's smug expression.
Seeing the Pink-haired Girl seemed about to explode in anger, Chen Ye quickly retreated.
Right now, if he really fought with the Pink-haired Girl, he might not necessarily be her match.
As for Xu Lina...
The woman watched Chen Ye's retreating back with despair, tasting defeat for the first time.
As for heartbreak, not really.
Chen Ye was right—she hadn't fallen in love with him either, she just wanted his resources.
Everyone was merely seeking what they needed.
But Xu Lina had experienced a sense of defeat from Chen Ye.
In the past, Xu Lina had never tasted failure.
"Sister Lina, I still have some water, you can have it!"
A transparent bottled water container was handed to Xu Lina.
The bottle contained only a shallow layer of clear water at the bottom, probably not even enough for one mouthful.
The one offering the bottle was the university student Xiao Fu.
Xiao Fu had clearly witnessed the entire process of Xu Lina being rejected.
This mouthful of water was his remaining ration for today, originally saved for when he absolutely couldn't bear the thirst anymore.
Seeing the disappointment in Xu Lina's eyes, Xiao Fu brought the water over.
When Xu Lina saw the water in the bottle, her eyes became glued to it.
She snatched it over without caring about Xiao Fu's current situation, unscrewed the cap, and poured it into her mouth.
The clear water flowing into her mouth made Xu Lina feel refreshed from body to soul.
Only Xiao Fu swallowed hard, watching eagerly as that little bit of water was drunk by someone else.
Until the last drop of water in the bottle flowed into Xu Lina's mouth.
Only then did Xu Lina return the bottle to Xiao Fu.
"Xiao Fu, thank you, you're a good person!"
Xiao Fu took the bottle, his face beaming with a smile.
"Xiao Fu, didn't you say you'd save the water for me?"
A woman nearby showed a resentful glare.
This woman was about the same age as Xiao Fu, also a university student, previously one of the "Slaves" in the Camel Train, named Li Juan.
The convoy controlled the drinking water, and everyone had insufficient water.
Li Juan had set her sights on the kind-hearted Xiao Fu.
Xiao Fu would always squeeze out part of his water ration to give to Li Juan.
But this time, Xiao Fu had given the water to Xu Lina.
By the time Li Juan noticed, the water had already been completely drunk by Xu Lina.
Xiao Fu, stared at by Li Juan, didn't know what to say, his face slightly flushing.
Xu Lina glanced at Li Juan, then directly strode away with her long legs.
"Xiao Fu, I never thought you were this kind of person, you... you've disappointed me so much!"
"You..."
Li Juan turned and left without any hesitation.
But by this time, Li Juan had already finished her daily ration, and could only get more tomorrow morning.
Li Juan's eyes shifted, spotting the lonely figure not far away.
"Xue Nan, is that you Xue Nan?"
"Xue Nan, hello, I'm your fan, I even tipped you during your live streams before!"
If they were still in the Camel Train, Li Juan would never have been able to approach Xue Nan.
Even now, Li Juan somewhat looked down on this former Mega-Influencer with Tens of Millions of Followers.
After all, they were from the same Camel Train before, and everyone knew what happened in the Camel Train.
She knew Xue Nan had half a bottle of bottled water.
A full half bottle.
By now, Xue Nan had been isolated by the convoy—if she approached him, might she get some water?
This half bottle of water was what Chen Ye had given Xue Nan last time.
Xue Nan had been hoarding it, reluctant to drink it.
Only when unbearably thirsty would he take it out to moisten his mouth.
"Get lost!"
Before Li Juan could finish her remaining words, Xue Nan stared at her with gloomy eyes, his gaze hiding danger that frightened Li Juan into scrambling away.
The current Xue Nan had fundamentally changed from the former Mega-Influencer with Tens of Millions of Followers.
Water shortages in the convoy were constantly occurring.
Even the several Sequence Superhumans didn't dare waste water resources casually.
The convoy began losing members.
Some survivors, unable to keep up with the convoy due to water shortage, collapsed in the Desert.
Regarding their companions' collapse, the surrounding survivors' eyes were numb.
In just a few days, over ten people had fallen behind due to water shortage.
Some camels also began having various problems from not eating for a long time.
Some simply went on strike, lying in sand hollows unwilling to take another step forward.
Others directly collapsed and couldn't get up.
Faced with this situation, Old Bao had no better solutions.
He could only work hard to produce more dried meat for storage.
Chen Ye, looking at his dwindling bottled water, also began feeling anxious.
Were they really going to die of thirst in this Desert?
Captain Chu Che still had no news about a Water Source.
...
"Boss, we're out of water too!"
Second Brother shook the empty bottle, licked his dry lips, a trace of fierceness flashing in his eyes.
The Boss glanced toward Chen Ye's direction, his expression no longer as ferocious as before, more filled with distress.
"Fourth Brother, do you still have any water?"
A thin, gaunt young man shrank back and said: "Big Brother, Second Brother, I, I don't have water either, finished my last bit this morning."
"Damn those Superhumans, they have so much water, why don't they share some with us?"
Second Brother stared fixedly at several vehicles.
These three were the ones who had escaped from Deer City—Third Brother had been killed by Chen Ye earlier, while the Boss, Second Brother, and Fourth Brother were still alive.
Their water had completely run out too.
"Boss, I'm just too thirsty, how about we rob those Superhumans?"
Second Brother most resembled the brainless Third Brother, and previously the two had the closest relationship.
The Boss was cunning and experienced, Second Brother was brainless and fierce, Third Brother was arrogant and domineering, Fourth Brother was timid and lustful.
The one proposing robbery was Second Brother.
Fourth Brother, upon hearing this, paled greatly: "Second Brother, have you gone crazy? They're Sequence Superhumans, even if we all joined together, we wouldn't be their match!"
The Boss's face also darkened: "Second Brother, if you want to die, don't drag me down."
Second Brother's expression wasn't great either. He looked around before saying: "Boss, if there was any other way, I wouldn't resort to this idea."
"I know this method is stupid, but isn't it because there's no alternative?"
"The other survivors are all out of water too, even if we rob them, we probably wouldn't get much, and it would attract that old bastard Bao's attention."
"Rather than die of thirst, we might as well go for something big."
"Second Brother! You..."
Fourth Brother's liver trembled with fear.
But the Boss fell into deep thought: "Second Brother, who are you thinking of targeting?"
"Boss, I want to target Chen Ye!"
"Have you lost your mind? Have you forgotten how Third Brother died?"
When the Boss heard Second Brother actually wanted to target Chen Ye, his face turned green.
Third Brother's death had left him with immense psychological trauma.
He never expected Second Brother would seek death and still want to target Chen Ye.
He was simply insane.
