Chapter 750: Time to Move

Actually, Chen Ye wasn't completely out of options. He could use Slaughter Points to restore the Monster Pickup Truck.

The battle against Number Two had pushed Chen Ye's Slaughter Points all the way to two hundred fifty thousand.

But there were simply too many places that needed Slaughter Points.

For instance, to deduce the "Blood Moon First Set of Broadcast Calisthenics," the System's quoted upgrade price required four hundred thousand Slaughter Points.

If he wanted to restore the Monster Pickup Truck, the System's quote was three hundred thousand.

Stingy as Chen Ye was, he naturally couldn't bear to spend three hundred thousand to have the System restore the Monster Pickup Truck.

So, Chen Ye could only squeeze Da Yong dry.

Actually, this was also for Da Yong's own good.

Da Yong had proven his ability in front of Chen Ye.

And Chen Ye would get a fully repaired Monster Pickup Truck.

It was a win-win situation.

Mm, at least that's how Chen Ye saw it.

Of course, Chen Ye had also asked the System.

If the Monster Pickup Truck was restored, could the upgrade that had previously used the Wonder's Heart continue?

The System gave an ambiguous answer.

One possibility was that the upgrade was completely interrupted, and the Wonder's Heart would be considered wasted.

The other was that the Wonder's Heart's upgrade process would be resumed, and the upgrading would continue.

Naturally, Chen Ye was unwilling to let the Wonder's Heart go to waste. After all, the Wonder's Heart wasn't cheap either.

But these things weren't up to Chen Ye's wishes alone.

He could only wait until Da Yong finished repairing the Monster Pickup Truck to know the answer.

This battle against Number Two had cost Chen Ye dearly.

Never mind the Monster Pickup Truck issue.

Just Hatred alone had been destroyed.

You had to understand, Hatred was the very first Wonder he had obtained.

From an ordinary machete at the very beginning, to its current number 1986.

Now, only a handle remained.

The scabbard behind his back had also seemed quiet these past two days.

Previously, blood-red filaments would always poke out from the scabbard, appearing quite lively.

But these past two days, it had been completely silent.

As if those blood-red filaments already knew that Hatred had been destroyed.

The willow branch wrapped around the handle had also withered. With a light pinch of his fingers, those dried willow branches just fell to the ground.

You had to understand, back when he subjugated Hatred, he had paid the price of an eyeball.

And just like that, it was gone?

Chen Ye sighed and put away Hatred's handle.

Chen Ye actually had another idea in mind. He planned to sacrifice Hatred to the Hundred-Ghost Eater.

Didn't the Hundred-Ghost Eater also accept the sacrifice of Wonders?

Could it not accept a damaged Wonder?

If the Hundred-Ghost Eater refused, Chen Ye still planned to use the old method to force it into submission.

No way around it. Chen Ye's sunk cost in Hatred was simply too high.

Of course, the main reason this method hadn't been implemented yet was that Chen Ye's Supernatural Power had been completely depleted.

Doing something like that at the time would have felt somewhat unsafe.

For example, Chen Ye currently knew full well that Number Two was inside the Ghost Prison, but he just hadn't gone in to take a look. This was also because his Supernatural Power was completely empty right now.

If some unexpected change occurred, he feared he wouldn't even have the strength to resist.

Once his Supernatural Power recovered a little, Chen Ye planned to go in and take a look.

To see exactly what the situation was.

It had been several days now, and the Hundred-Ghost Eater's displayed status was still "Advancing…"

This time, he had upgraded to Sequence 4 on the battlefield.

At the time, it had happened so hastily that Chen Ye hadn't properly examined all the information about Sequence 4.

Now that things had settled down a bit, Chen Ye also planned to examine the details of the Blood Moon Lord Sequence 4.

The Blood Moon Lord Sequence 4 mainly had three abilities.

One of them was Demon Claw.

Actually, it would be more accurate to call it Blood Moon Lord, because this ability would receive a certain amplification effect when the blood moon appeared.

When Demon Claw attacked an enemy, it would inflict unimaginable pain on them.

Even Anomalies without pain perception were no exception.

At the time, Number Two had felt unimaginable pain.

The second was Sequence 4's innate ability: Fear.

This ability had played a major role when facing Number Two.

It had allowed him at the time to pin Number Two down and beat her relentlessly.

He had even extracted Number Two's flower ability.

The third ability was still Blood Moon Blessing.

He had obtained Blood Moon Blessing when he class-changed into Blood Moon Lord.

At the time, he had used it on the Smoke Breath Mist ability.

Later, when facing Xu Wan and Number Two, this ability didn't seem to have much effect.

But that didn't mean the ability wasn't useful.

It was just that Xu Wan and Number Two were absurdly strong, completely beyond what they could handle at their current stage.

The Smoke Breath Mist ability, though not Chen Ye's strongest, was still his most practical.

Of course, Blood Moon Blessing also had its limitations.

This ability couldn't be used on Blood Moon Lord's own sequence abilities.

If Blood Moon Blessing could affect Blood Moon Lord's native abilities, the targets Chen Ye would most want to use Blood Moon Blessing on would be Demon Claw or Fear.

But there was no "if" in this world…

Chen Ye was hesitating, hesitating about which of his current abilities to apply Blood Moon Blessing to.

Just as Chen Ye was taking stock of his gains from the battle against Number Two.

The follow-up cleanup work in Xi City was also proceeding at breakneck speed.

Hou Junji had organized a large number of Silent Council members to enter Xi City and clear out the remaining Anomalies.

He planned to clear out all the Anomalies in Xi City within the next two days, and then have everyone move in.

By then, he would widely issue hero's invitations, calling more convoys to come here.

Actually, these past two days, Elder Hou Junji had already spread the news that Xi City had been recaptured.

These past two days, convoys had also been arriving one after another.

Today alone, at least three convoys had arrived, bringing over five hundred people to the base.

Among them was one large convoy that brought a full three hundred survivors.

This instantly made the entire base lively.

By evening, the base was brightly lit.

Only at Rest Eternal Garden were there scattered flickers of firelight shining.

When Elder Hou Junji announced that they would be moving tomorrow, the entire base erupted.

Finally…

Finally, humanity's first city to rekindle the flame of civilization, Xi City, had been recaptured.
