Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 185: Familiar Process

Tonight's dinner was eaten by Chen Ye alone.
Captain Chu Che was already asleep from exhaustion.
Zhang Yanping had packed Captain Chu's portion, ready to be reheated whenever he woke up.
As the cook for the Superhumans, Zhang Yanping had also received payment from Xue Nan.
Just as Chen Ye was eating dinner, Doctor Luo arrived, followed by a timid, shrinking woman.
Seeing Chen Ye eating, Doctor Luo shouted at him, "Chen Ye, don't go too far. This convoy isn't your personal fiefdom."
Doctor Luo's face wore an expression of great anger. Before coming, he had even thought that if Chen Ye dared to go too far, he would fight him to the death.
However, Chen Ye merely glanced at him indifferently with that Blood Eye.
All the courage Doctor Luo had mustered before coming drained away completely in that instant.
At this moment, Doctor Luo even felt some fear, his body trembling slightly.
Yet, even so, Doctor Luo stubbornly shielded his wife with his own body.
His wife hid behind Doctor Luo, her expression a mix of fear and a hint of helpless resignation.
This had happened once before.
This woman also knew what she was about to face.
But...
Wasn't this guy sick? If he wanted her husband's help, did he have to use her as a threat?
Faced with Doctor Luo's anger, Chen Ye felt not the slightest stir within, not even lifting an eyelid.
He focused on dealing with the dinner before him.
An ordinary person posed basically no threat to Chen Ye.
Even if Doctor Luo were fully armed, it would be almost impossible for him to kill Chen Ye.
"After I finish eating, help me remove my right eye!"
"You... you lunatic!"
Doctor Luo didn't know what words to use, only feeling the person before him was insane.
"Do as I say. Your opinion on other matters isn't needed!"
"Go down and prepare!"
"Come see me in half an hour!"
"After the surgery, I'll give you a box of instant noodles. You know what that means!"
Chen Ye still had a box of instant noodles in the back seat, so he might as well give it out as payment.
Doctor Luo opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.
That was a whole box of instant noodles.
Last time he helped Chen Ye with surgery, he received a barrel of gasoline. It was thanks to that barrel that he and his wife had lived much, much better than the other survivors.
Performing such a surgery in this environment...
If it were before the apocalypse, Doctor Luo might even have had his medical license revoked.
But this was the apocalypse, and the patient wasn't an ordinary person.
Just as Doctor Luo was about to pull his wife up to leave.
A humanoid figure formed from smoke walked out of the Smoke Breath. Doctor Luo, startled, protectively pulled his wife back, retreating several steps.
"Old rules. Your wife stays!"
"You..."
Doctor Luo glared at Chen Ye with fury. Chen Ye continued eating by himself, not even bothering to look up at him.
Since this wasn't exactly their first time cooperating, Doctor Luo wasn't as panicked as the first time.
He comforted his wife with a couple of words, then turned and ran.
When Zhang Yanping went to find Doctor Luo earlier, she only said Chen Ye was looking for him.
Doctor Luo hadn't expected Chen Ye would want him to remove another eye.
So he hadn't brought any surgical instruments at all.
Doctor Luo's wife glanced at Chen Ye, then at the eerie smoke-formed humanoid figure beside her, and obediently found a place to sit down.
Doctor Luo's wife was about the same age as him, also a middle-aged woman in her forties. She wore a pair of thin-framed glasses, had ordinary features, but her demeanor was very calm, giving the impression of an intellectual.
From the way Doctor Luo treated her, it was clear the couple had a good relationship.
Chen Ye was never the type to be swayed by a beautiful woman, let alone do anything to a woman like this.
The silence between the two was terrifying, with almost no words spoken.
The smoke-formed humanoid was just the simplest simulation of a human shape, possessing no miraculous abilities.
For dealing with an ordinary person, this level was sufficient.
It only took ten minutes for Doctor Luo to return carrying a small white case.
This time, Doctor Luo's preparations were much more thorough than before.
Chen Ye had finished his dinner.
This sliced fish restaurant had two private rooms. One was naturally occupied by Chu Che.
The other private room naturally housed Chen Ye.
As for Iron Lion...
He was carried by several survivors to sleep in the main hall, showing no sign of waking up throughout the entire process.
The process with the scalpel was eerie.
A smoke-formed humanoid stood beside Doctor Luo's wife, on guard.
Chen Ye sat on a sofa, holding a kitchen knife against Doctor Luo's neck.
Chen Ye wasn't that confident in the machete that hadn't been sacrificed yet.
So he just grabbed a random kitchen knife.
Who knew if that weird machete might act up during his surgery?
The Wonder numbered 2001 seemed different from all the other Wonders he had encountered before.
Even though it wasn't his first time experiencing this feeling, Doctor Luo still felt nervous.
The scalpel in his hand trembled constantly, his forehead already covered in cold sweat.
If Iron Lion hadn't been asleep, Chen Ye would definitely have asked Iron Lion to help him threaten Doctor Luo.
As for Captain Chu Che!
Chen Ye dismissed that option without even thinking.
Captain Chu was deep and calculating. Chen Ye had no idea what went on in that guy's head every day.
If Chu Che insisted on helping him, Chen Ye would rather not have the surgery.
Doctor Luo had never performed such an absurd surgery before—operating with a knife held to his neck.
Well, last time it was a machete hanging over his head.
Pretty much the same!!!
And it was the same lunatic.
Last time, it was the left eye that was removed.
The surgery proceeded relatively smoothly.
It only took half an hour.
Doctor Luo placed a complete eyeball on a tray beside him.
Only then did Doctor Luo feel the kitchen knife being removed from his neck.
Looking at this monster before him, Doctor Luo felt deep-seated fear in his heart.
A thought arose in his mind: were these Sequence Superhumans even still human?
No one could undergo such surgery without anesthesia.
Yet the person before him seemed capable of it!
This was his second contact with a Superhuman.
Each contact filled Doctor Luo's heart with many reflections and much more fear.
Where Chen Ye's right eyeball had been, there was now an unsettling empty socket.
Chen Ye himself was drenched in sweat, not much better off than Doctor Luo.
Doctor Luo efficiently treated the wound on Chen Ye's right eye.
Soon, a simply bandaged eye patch covered the right eye.
On Chen Ye's face, only the blood-red left eye seemed to be faintly glowing.
"Alright, you can leave now!"
Chen Ye's body was still twitching abnormally, but he managed to say this.
The humanoid smoke that had been standing at the private room door dissipated into the air as if it had never existed.
Doctor Luo quickly packed up all his surgical tools. His wife also came over, head bowed, to help, not daring to look at Chen Ye the entire time.
"Xue Nan will give you the stuff!"
As Doctor Luo was leaving, Chen Ye said this.
Doctor Luo murmured softly, "Thank you!"
Doctor Luo didn't doubt Chen Ye's words.
Chen Ye might not be a good person, liking to use others' family members as leverage.
But he kept his word.
Pushing the door open, he left quickly.
Xue Nan walked in, glanced at Chen Ye, and especially when his gaze met Chen Ye's blood-red left eye, Xue Nan felt a slight jolt in his heart, a surge of fear rising within him.
Xue Nan slightly lowered his gaze, taking out a small bottle in his hand. "Squad Leader Chu asked me to bring this!"
"Mr. Chen, are you alright?"
Chen Ye looked at the small bottle but didn't speak, just stared coldly at Xue Nan, spitting out a single word, "Scram!"
Xue Nan hastily bowed and left.
Once outside the private room door, Xue Nan realized his back was slightly damp with sweat.
At this moment, he was at his weakest. Even with Xue Nan, Chen Ye was filled with vigilance.
If Xue Nan made any suspicious move, he wouldn't mind killing him on the spot.
Only then did Chen Ye take the small bottle.
Looking at the familiar color, it was a bottle of diluted Death God Blood Tears.
He hadn't expected Squad Leader Chu to still have this stuff.
He sniffed it slightly;
the smell wasn't strange.
As the medicinal liquid entered his mouth, Chen Ye could feel the pain in his right eye slightly ease, the discomfort slowly subsiding.
Chen Ye calmed his mind a little, then looked at the machete with its slightly trembling blood-red sheath.
Reaching out to grasp this machete, Chen Ye could feel its excitement.
And the intermittent urging consciousness.
It seemed to be urging Chen Ye to perform the sacrifice quickly, time was running out.
