Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 112: Extreme Cold World

In Chu Che's perception, there were more than seven Anomalies surrounding them in all directions, with the only path of survival being the white snowy world ahead.
If given a choice, Chu Che wouldn't want to enter it.
Even a fool could tell that this white world ahead definitely wasn't any good path to survival.
After the apocalypse, all weather had become extreme.
For example, the desert's daytime could heat people to death, while the night could freeze people to death.
But there was no choice left.
"Captain Chu, didn't you say you have Weather Perception ability?"
"Why didn't you mention this earlier?"
Chen Ye's voice sounded beside his ear.
Even the Pink-haired Girl, Iron Lion, and Ding Dong all looked at Chu Che.
Chu Che said helplessly, "Weather Perception is based on sensing from my current location! For coordinates too far from me, I can't perceive them in advance!"
By the time he noticed something was wrong, they had already arrived here.
This sentence Chu Che didn't speak aloud.
Chen Ye thought for a moment and said, "Captain Chu, don't you have the Concealment Barrier ability? Cast one right now, and we'll leave after three days!"
Chu Che shook his head: "At least three groups of Anomalies have detected our presence. Although they're still far from us, they're already on their way here."
"The prerequisite for Concealment Barrier is absolute safety, absolutely no Anomalies detecting our presence!"
"Otherwise the Concealment Barrier is ineffective."
Chen Ye held his cigarette for a long time before finally blurting out: "Damn! What use are you then!"
Chu Che glared at him angrily!
No matter how reluctant they were, the convoy had no choice but to move forward.
Whether going back, turning left or right, or simply stopping where they were—
all had become impossible!
People sometimes have to do things they really don't want to do.
Now they could only pray that the white world's low temperature wouldn't exceed that of the desert night.
Otherwise the convoy would face major trouble.
"Get in your vehicles!"
Chu Che was the first to return to his vehicle.
Chen Ye looked at the white world ahead and helplessly got back into his car.
Back in Xinghua Town, Jiajia and that muscular man had indeed taken some clothes, but unfortunately they gradually traded away some later, used some when upgrading the vehicle canopy, and when the sandstorm came later, the remaining ones were all blown away by the sandstorm.
All the clothes Chen Ye had were the flip-flops on his feet, a pair of shorts, a tank top, and a sun-protection jacket on the passenger seat.
These were all his clothes.
He only had one pair of underwear too, already frayed after being worn for half a year.
And there was a thin blanket.
The thin blanket was found among the Camel Train's supplies.
This thin blanket plus his enhanced body could handle the extreme cold of desert nights without problems.
But if the white world ahead was colder than the desert night...
Then there would be trouble.
Even though Chen Ye's physical fitness had been greatly enhanced...
He followed the supernatural path, unlike sequence Superhumans like Iron Lion who focused on physical enhancement.
Even if Iron Lion entered that low-temperature snowy world naked, he probably wouldn't feel anything.
And then there was his vehicle.
To save some Slaughter Points back then, he hadn't upgraded the air conditioning system.
Driving in a car without air conditioning in winter!
Anyone who's experienced this knows exactly how it feels.
Plus it was constantly snowing ahead, with such heavy snow—driving under these conditions would also be a huge challenge for the vehicle.
Currently visible, there was already over a foot of snow accumulation.
This would also test the vehicle's capabilities.
It still came down to the same question—if the temperature in the white world wasn't too low, everything would be manageable.
If the temperature was abnormally low, then upgrading the air conditioning would be absolutely necessary.
Oh right, and those white-red Aizhui collaboration sneakers of unknown authenticity.
Chen Ye rummaged through the back seat for a long time before finally finding these shoes.
Entering that snowy world, at least they could keep his feet from getting cold.
Even Chen Ye felt somewhat worried.
The other survivors were even more terrified.
Anyone who wasn't an idiot could imagine how cold that white world must be.
Some people had already started putting on every piece of clothing they could wear.
When these people fled the city earlier, who had time to worry about bringing clothes?
It wasn't like they were going on vacation.
Later when they had chances to gather supplies, they prioritized food first.
As for clothes like these—don't even think about it.
Only people like Xu Lina who cared about appearance collected one or two extra pieces.
Later when they entered the desert, with scorching days and freezing nights.
Even if someone wanted to collect blankets for nighttime cold protection back then...
Unfortunately, in the desert, there were simply no conditions for gathering supplies.
At night everyone could only huddle together for warmth, which barely managed to get them through.
Those who couldn't handle it froze to death.
And now... Chen Ye clearly saw chaos inside the school bus.
The Apocalyptic Pickup Truck slowly moved forward, making crunching sounds when its front wheels pressed into the tire tracks left by Chu Che's vehicle.
A wave of cold instantly assaulted him, the hairs on his arms visibly standing up.
Even Chen Ye couldn't help shivering.
"So cold!"
Exactly what he feared was happening.
The current perceived temperature was much colder than desert nights.
Chen Ye watched a water bottle on the passenger seat visibly turn into ice, the expanding ice causing the plastic bottle to swell up.
Chen Ye could even hear crunching sounds coming from the truck bed.
That was the sound of his stored bottled water turning into ice.
Previously in extremely hot environments, now suddenly switched to extremely cold conditions.
Normal people would get sick in such circumstances.
Fortunately, although Chen Ye couldn't compare to Iron Lion, he at least wouldn't get sick.
"Everyone, follow the tire tracks of the vehicle ahead, don't fall behind!"
Old Bao's voice sounded.
Chen Ye gently pressed the gas pedal to make the vehicle catch up faster.
Behind Chen Ye was the Pink-haired Girl's vehicle.
Just after entering the icy world, the Pink-haired Girl switched her car's air conditioning to heating mode.
"So cold!"
The Pink-haired Girl shivered.
"Cousin, I... I... ah-choo... ah-choo...!"
"It's so cold, cousin, find me some clothes to wear."
Xiao Yu felt her nose getting stuffy, a bad premonition rising in her heart.
Could I be getting sick?
As for the school bus.
When the unimaginably low temperature struck, the panic inside the school bus intensified even more.
Fortunately, with Iron Lion and Ding Dong suppressing it, the chaos was promptly contained.
Just as Chen Ye had thought, Iron Lion sat in the vehicle wearing just a tank top, completely unfazed by the rapidly dropping temperature.
Ding Dong only frowned slightly but didn't make a big deal of it either.
The Titan Sequence primarily cultivated physical fitness and muscular strength—their physical constitution wasn't something ordinary sequences could compare to, hence they had strong resistance to extreme cold.
As for Ding Dong, being of the Fist Master Sequence, although her physical fitness wasn't as monstrous as the Titan Sequence, it was still far superior to Chen Ye and the others.
The Pink-haired Girl was of the Sword Immortal Sequence, and moreover Sequence 2, so her resistance to low temperatures wasn't much weaker either.
Therefore, among the convoy, the ones most afraid of the cold were only Chen Ye and Captain Chu Che.
And Chen Ye's vehicle had no air conditioning.
Chu Che's modified off-road vehicle did have air conditioning.
Even so, Chu Che still took out a blanket to cover himself.
While Chen Ye was worse off.
Although he wouldn't freeze to death like ordinary survivors, Chen Ye was definitely not comfortable right now.
He asked the System how many Slaughter Points were needed to upgrade the air conditioning.
The answer was five thousand Slaughter Points.
He currently only had four thousand Slaughter Points left—not nearly enough!
Furious, Chen Ye cursed the System for getting increasingly greedy.
"It's so cold, no, I don't want to freeze to death, I don't want to freeze to death!"
The boss riding the camel turned his camel around, wanting to flee back into the desert.
"If you want to leave, fine, but leave the camel behind!"
Chen Ye's icy voice rang out.
Camels also counted as a type of food, and he had a share in them too.
The boss wore a short sleeve, his two thick tattooed arms looking quite intimidating—he had once been a dominant figure in his area.
Unfortunately, Chen Ye's words nailed him to the spot, his face flushed red, but he didn't dare move even one step.
When they camped for the night, Chen Ye trudged through the snow wanting to borrow some clothes from Chu Che or Iron Lion.
But none of them had extra clothes to lend him.
As for the other ordinary survivors, don't even mention it.
"Captain... is there... any... town nearby, let's... go gather some supplies, if this continues... I'll be fine..."
"But those... ordinary people will probably... all freeze to death."
Chen Ye sniffled and stomped his feet.
Chen Ye didn't care about ordinary people's survival—he was just making an excuse.
To keep warm, Chen Ye had even put on the sun-protection jacket.
Snow was still falling from the sky, and soon Chen Ye's head and body were completely covered in white snow.
His spoken words turned into white mist at his lips.
By nightfall, the temperature seemed even colder.
Chu Che set aside his amusement at Chen Ye's predicament and said seriously to everyone, "There actually is a supply point, but it's very dangerous!!"
