Sequence Highway Survival: I Upgrade Supplies in the Apocalypse-Chapter 20: Listening to the Radio

Chapter 20

Chen Ye felt puzzled in his heart.
The apocalypse had only just begun a few months ago, yet this device before them had already reached over a thousand in numbering.
Who created this numbering ranking system?
Also, that girl Nana looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old at most—how did she know so much?
Before Chen Ye could ponder further, Chu Che had already lifted his head, his eyes carrying some tension as he said: "It's ready!"
"Zzzz..."
"Welcome to the Fair Convoy channel. The current time is 8:35 PM on November 5th, 2030."
Fair Convoy?
This was the first time Chen Ye had heard the convoy's name.
"According to s from our radio station's correspondent, Longevity Village is ten kilometers ahead!"
"Longevity Village is a relatively unknown village in our country. There are seventeen villages nationwide called Longevity Village, hence its lack of fame."
"The reason it's called Longevity Village is because an elderly person in the village lived to 127 years old before passing away, thus earning the name Longevity Village."
"..."
After a burst of static noise, this device called the Eavesdropping Radio began introducing the situation of Longevity Village.
This information was indeed accurate.
This particular Longevity Village truly wasn't very famous—if it were the kind of village known nationwide, with the convoy's current meager numbers, they wouldn't dare treat Longevity Village as a supply point.
The radio sounded as if there was a real radio host introducing Longevity Village's situation to everyone present.
Chen Ye listened quietly, feeling slightly surprised in his heart.
Cities had fallen, most urban areas had become forbidden zones for humans—forget radio stations, even mobile phones had no signal now.
No wonder this radio could be called a Wonder.
He just didn't understand why it was called "Eavesdropping Radio"?
"According to inquiries by our radio station's correspondent, Longevity Village has 357 villagers, 112 households, covering an area of approximately 2000 acres."
"Three months ago, anomalies broke out in Longevity Village. All residents died—no survivors remained in Longevity Village!"
Hearing the cold voice coming from the radio, everyone fell silent.
A village with over three hundred people—not a single person had survived.
No one said anything.
Nowadays, villages like this were far too common throughout the world.
Take Shanghai for example—a supercity with tens of millions of people—probably less than one percent had survived.
Chen Ye now understood why Captain Chu had brought out this Eavesdropping Radio.
It seemed this Wonder numbered 01257 had information-gathering capabilities.
Sure enough, the content the radio spoke next made everyone present prick up their ears.
"Zzzz... Longevity Village currently possesses relatively complete supplies. There's a small supermarket under the big willow tree in the village center with sufficient materials. Priority collection recommended."
"The cellar at the village chief's house contains many reserve grains. Secondary collection recommended."
"Each household also possesses some reserve food supplies."
"There's a well at the village entrance. The well water is not contaminated and is drinkable."
"The village currently... zzzz..."
At this point, the radio seemed to receive some interference, emitting static from the speaker.
But it quickly returned to normal.
"The village contains over a hundred anomalies. Based on the convoy's current strength, Longevity Village's danger rating is SSS level."
"..."
After hearing this information from the radio, everyone had a general concept of Longevity Village.
Without the Eavesdropping Radio's information, if they had rashly entered Longevity Village, they would likely have wasted much time.
Wasting time in a village full of anomalies meant wasting lives.
However, throughout the entire Eavesdropping Radio broadcast, Captain Chu Che's facial expression kept puzzling Chen Ye.
This Captain Chu stared intently at the radio, looking somewhat tense.
As if the radio might transform into an anomaly at any moment.
Only after hearing the radio broadcast end did Captain Chu Che finally let out a long sigh of relief.
Chu Che turned to Chen Ye and said: "Chen Ye, for this Longevity Village operation, will you act with us or operate separately?"
Without hesitation, Chen Ye indicated he would act together with everyone.
Chen Ye was still only a pseudo-sequence superhuman, and in a Support Sequence at that—acting alone would be suicide.
The luck he'd had at Apricot Blossom Village wouldn't repeat itself.
"In that case, for this operation's supplies, I'll take thirty percent, Nana thirty percent, and Iron Lion and Chen Ye twenty percent each. How does that sound?"
The reason for this distribution was mainly because Chu Che's role was irreplaceable. Without him, the entire convoy would be gone, let alone searching for supply points.
As for why the young Sword Immortal Nana could get thirty percent—Chen Ye only learned now that Nana was actually a Sword Immortal Sequence 2 Open Blade Realm swordsman.
Her combat power was no weaker than Iron Lion's, possibly even stronger.
As for why Chen Ye could get twenty percent, that was because his Mechanic Sequence ability was also indispensable to the convoy.
Naturally, Chen Ye had no objections.
They began formulating plans based on the Eavesdropping Radio's information.
After reaching Longevity Village, Chu Che naturally wouldn't take action—his mission was already complete.
The actual operations would be handled by Chen Ye, Nana, and Iron Lion.
They would first go to the small supermarket under the big willow tree in Longevity Village, then proceed to the village chief's cellar after finishing at the supermarket.
Just as everyone had almost finished discussing, suddenly the familiar voice of Captain Chu came from the Eavesdropping Radio.
"Sigh... that damn girl Nana, she looks delicate but acts like a wild monkey all day, neither masculine nor feminine. If this were before the apocalypse, definitely no one would want her!"
"And that Iron Lion, this big fool—I really don't know what's going on in his head. I've heard the Titan Sequence's cost is reduced intelligence, but to be this stupid is just ridiculous!"
"That newly joined guy has a bad temper and seems kinda gloomy! I really don't know what goes through his mind all day!"
"This guy definitely wasn't a good person before the apocalypse!"
"I even saw him hitting elderly people and children with my own eyes. My heavens, what kind of freaks do I have in my convoy?"
"And that female celebrity Zhou Lan—she looked quite pretty on TV, but in real life she's just average!"
"..."
At this moment, Chen Ye finally understood why Captain Chu had looked so tense when he brought out the radio.
There were reasons for everything.
This Eavesdropping Radio didn't just eavesdrop on targets to collect information.
It even eavesdropped on the holder's words.
He had no idea when Captain Chu had said these things.
But the Eavesdropping Radio had captured them.
Then, at the moment when everyone was most relaxed and everyone was present, it directly played them back.
The scene fell into complete silence.
Actually, when the Eavesdropping Radio started speaking, Captain Chu had already covered it with a piece of clothing.
But it was completely useless.
Captain Chu looked at the expressions on the three people's faces, and for the first time, an awkward expression appeared on his normally composed face.
Chen Ye: "..."
Wait, Captain Chu said I have a bad temper and seem gloomy?
And that I'm not a good person?
Nana's face was utterly dark: "Captain, you're something else. 'Neither masculine nor feminine'—are you talking about me?"
Iron Lion's face was full of grievance: "Captain, the Titan Sequence might not be smart, but we're not stupid either, let alone freaks. Saying this about me—doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Captain Chu's mouth twitched. Just as he was about to explain something, he already saw the hot-tempered young Sword Immortal beginning to draw her long sword.
