Chapter 749: Chen Ye: Trash Will Always Be Trash

"Miss Jiang!"

Jiang Rou sized up the man before her, her gaze cold. When it came to ordinary people, Jiang Rou had always lacked patience.

She recognized this man. He was the leader of the Apocalypse Rhapsodists Convoy.

Perhaps it was because he was facing her, or perhaps it was because their convoy no longer had any superhumans, but the man seemed a bit stiff and awkward in her presence.

A convoy without superhumans would fill its survivors with a strong sense of unease.

The man felt the pressure emanating from Jiang Rou and swallowed hard before pulling out a long wrapped bundle from behind his back.

The moment Jiang Rou saw that long bundle, her expression shifted instantly.

She knew what it was. It seemed to be the blade that the Knife Sharpener had once wielded.

That Knife Sharpener had fallen, but his blade was coveted by many.

Word had it that people were already scheming to get their hands on it.

The man extended the blade toward Jiang Rou and said with earnest reverence, "Miss Jiang, Mr. Ye once told me that if he ever fell, I should give this blade to the master most suited to wield it!"

Why did that sentence sound so familiar?

Jiang Rou's eyes burned with desire, but she also stole a glance at a certain One-eyed Guy beside her.

It was as if she was saying: Hey, One-eyed Guy, come take a look at this. See how others do things?

As for Jiang Rou's scorn, Chen Ye pretended not to see it.

You want to use this guy to shame me on moral grounds?

Sorry, but this guy has no morals!

Chen Ye even thought the man in front of him was a complete idiot.

If he had something like that, he would absolutely never hand it over.

Such a famous Wonder could be traded for no small amount of supplies.

Don't doubt Chen Ye's determination to pocket a Wonder for himself, because he had done exactly that before!

Back then, someone had said something similar to him, and he had forgotten about it the very next second.

"You're planning to give this blade to me?"

Jiang Rou asked, already knowing the answer.

Chen Ye had also noticed what was happening on this side and looked over.

The man said earnestly, "I'm an ordinary person. Naturally, there's no way I can use this Wonder!"

"Mr. Ye's dying wish was exactly this!"

"He knew he wouldn't survive this time?"

Jiang Rou asked curiously.

"I don't know. Mr. Ye told me this before!"

Jiang Rou still looked puzzled.

That Knife Sharpener couldn't speak, so how did he tell you?

Perhaps seeing the expression on Jiang Rou's face, the man explained further, "Mr. Ye rarely spoke. He told me by writing!"

"I believe Miss Jiang is perhaps the master most suited to this blade. Therefore, I took it upon myself to give this blade to Miss Jiang!"

"Please, Miss Jiang, accept it!"

The cloth bundle wrapped around the blade lifted slightly, his attitude devout.

Jiang Rou did not stand on ceremony. She took the blade from the man's hands in one swift motion.

Right in front of Chen Ye, Jiang Rou yanked the cloth wrapping off the blade. What greeted her eyes was a blade that looked more like a toy than a Wonder.

But when Jiang Rou touched the blade, she felt its fierce blade aura pierce through her, as if she could see an unyielding Blade Master.

An excited expression flashed across Jiang Rou's eyes instantly. She even sensed a familiar aura from the blade.

"A good blade. What's this blade called?"

Jiang Rou asked casually.

The man lowered his head and answered respectfully, "The blade's name: Annihilation of Life!"

"Annihilation of Life?~~~"

Hearing that name, Jiang Rou's pupils shrank to the size of needle tips in an instant.

The name of this blade... was exactly the same as her own blade's name.

...

"Brother Ye, I'm afraid your truck is going to be very hard to fix!"

Gong Yong looked at the Monster Pickup Truck with a troubled expression.

At this moment, the Monster Pickup Truck's condition was truly not great.

Across the entire vehicle, many places were overgrown with fresh flowers.

The outer shell, the seats inside, even the floor of the interior, all were covered in fresh flowers.

Earlier, Chen Ye had scraped off all these flowers with the Hundred-Ghost Eater, but before long, they would grow back.

It was likely that the interior of the Monster Pickup Truck was also full of plant roots.

And it was precisely because of these flowers that the Monster Pickup Truck had broken down and could not be driven at all.

There was also that Little Monster in the truck.

The Little Monster's antennae were also covered in fresh flowers.

Perhaps because the Little Monster was a special life form, Number Two's flowers, though having a great effect on it, had not killed it.

It had just been lying listlessly on the seat inside the truck these past two days, far from its former lively and cautious self.

As for combat ability...

It was already good enough that the Little Monster wasn't dead.

But asking Chen Ye to give up the Monster Pickup Truck was also unrealistic.

After all, the Monster Pickup Truck was far too useful.

Although it wasn't the main combat type of Wonder, traveling through the apocalypse with it was excellent, as it could help gather supplies and help fight.

It even had a dual oil-electric system. Just the solar charging panel on the roof alone had cost Chen Ye no small amount of effort.

This was something Chen Ye had upgraded from a 28-inch Bicycle to its current state.

And its number ranking was also very high.

What was even more heartbreaking was that he had just used the Wonder's Heart.

The Wonder's Heart, ah, eight thousand Silent Gold Coins, which converted into food was eighty thousand jin of food.

Originally, the upgrade only needed one day to complete.

Yet this kind of mess had happened.

More importantly, this truck was Chen Ye's exclusive Wonder.

You had to understand the preciousness of an exclusive Wonder... even a hundred Wonders might not produce a single exclusive Wonder.

Asking Chen Ye to give up the Monster Pickup Truck was simply impossible!

Therefore, Chen Ye sought out Gong Yong, wanting this trash Gong Yong to repair the Monster Pickup Truck.

After all, Gong Yong counted as Mechanic Sequence too. Although he was very likely the most trash Mechanic Sequence, he was still Mechanic Sequence.

"Brother Ye, it's not that I won't help you. It's just that my current abilities are truly limited!"

"If your truck were a person, just two pills and it'd be fine!"

"But this is a truck, and a Wonder at that!"

"Every Wonder is different. The Monster Pickup Truck is truly beyond my understanding!"

Chen Ye's expression darkened immediately.

"No, other people are Sequence 4, and you're also Sequence 4!"

"I ask you to do one thing and you can't even do it! What use are you?"

"Hmph! Trash!"

Chen Ye bit down extremely hard on that final word "trash," the contempt in his tone practically overflowing.

Hearing Chen Ye say this, Gong Yong's face flushed red instantly.

Especially when Chen Ye called him "trash."

Gong Yong felt he had suffered an enormous insult. He jerked his head up, staring fixedly at Chen Ye.

That socially anxious youth, after being beaten down by Chen Ye countless times, had also learned to fight back.

The full-bearded youth gritted his teeth and steeled his heart: "What if I fix your truck?"

Chen Ye's gaze was contemptuous, his tone disdainful, using a manner that could infuriate someone to death as he said, "Trash will always be trash. Talk after you've fixed it! Don't fuck around doing nothing but bragging!"

With that, Chen Ye turned and walked away, as if unwilling to say another two words to trash.

Gong Yong was directly stunned with rage by Chen Ye's words.

His full-bearded face went from white to green, from green to purple-red, the entire person looking like an enraged bull.

Those eyes stared fixedly at the departing Chen Ye, wishing he could go up right now and beat that One-eyed Guy senseless!

It wasn't until Chen Ye had gone far away, until Gong Yong felt Chen Ye could no longer hear him cursing, that he gritted his teeth and quietly cursed, "Damn it, Chen Ye... screw your ancestors!"

"If I could beat you, I'd fight you to the death today!"

"Pissed me off! Pissed me off! Pissed me off..."

Gong Yong's chest heaved violently, as if a raging fire burned in his heart, the kind that could burn that One-eyed Guy to ashes.

A person fights for dignity, a Buddha fights for a stick of incense.

Gong Yong made his decision. He was determined to fix the One-eyed Guy's truck.

Then let the One-eyed Guy see, see the strength of his brother Da Yong.

By then, it would definitely blind your damn dog eyes!

They say a person grows fastest when they truly have no other options.

Gong Yong turned to look at the flower-covered Monster Pickup Truck, gritted his teeth, and his gaze turned firm once more.

Not far away...

"Tsk tsk... Yezi, bullying Da Yong like that, doesn't your conscience ache?"

From beginning to end, Captain Chu Che had watched the clash between Chen Ye and Gong Yong.

It wasn't until Gong Yong was provoked by Chen Ye's goading tactics and decided to help him fix the truck.

Captain Chu Che felt that Chen Ye was truly far too fucking cunning, and also that Da Yong was truly far too naive.

Young people would always be young people. Even such a low-level scheme as provocation worked on him?

Just like those young people who had just entered society. A leader praises them a couple of times, and they'll work through the night to finish the job.

Chen Ye glanced slightly at Chu Che, his gaze equally contemptuous: "You think you're not trash?"

"You can't even manage a convoy properly. What use are you?"

"Damn it..."

Captain Chu Che finally understood the rage in Da Yong's heart right now.
