Just as Zhou Xiaoxiao was begging Chen Ye for help.

A roar that shook heaven and earth echoed through the air.

Immediately followed by earth-shaking tremors, as if a giant dragon was roaring and churning underground.

The corpse puppets bound by willow branches also began shaking and swaying chaotically.

All the survivors turned their heads to look.

Beneath the world-sized great willow, the three-meter-tall giant’s muscles bulged violently, his massive fists hammering against the willow’s trunk like battering rams. Wood chips flew everywhere as the great willow shed crimson blood.

The long-legged girl held her longsword with one hand, chanting some mysterious incantation. The power surrounding her sword grew increasingly intense, sword qi swirling around her body, her long hair flowing without wind as if she were a divine maiden.

But the girl’s face grew paler and paler, without a trace of blood color.

This was the same sword technique the girl had used against the hunchbacked old puppet earlier, but this time the power was far greater than before.

“Strike!”

The girl shouted sharply, lightly swinging her sword down toward the great willow.

A dazzling sword qi attached to the longsword, the originally one-meter-long blade now extending over ten meters.

Even from such a distance, Chen Ye felt a chill in his heart.

The sword came down.

A terrifying sword scar appeared on the great willow’s body, with large amounts of crimson blood flowing down the trunk.

Eerie, inexplicable weeping and screaming sounds came from underground.

This sword had clearly injured the great willow, its trunk writhing madly, affecting even the village center square.

At this moment, it seemed like the entire village was experiencing an earthquake.

This moment happened to coincide with Zhou Xiaoxiao’s plea to Chen Ye.

The survivors looked at the great willow in terror.

Even the corpse puppets seemed to fall into some kind of panic, as if some great horror was about to arrive.

“Run!”

Chen Ye shouted loudly!

The surrounding survivors were jolted awake, turning with their backpacks and madly fleeing toward the village entrance.

Chen Ye couldn’t afford to hesitate now. He could feel that because the great willow was injured, some taboo in the village seemed to have been breached.

The backpack on his back posed no hindrance to Chen Ye whatsoever. At this moment, he wished his parents had given him two extra legs as he frantically charged toward the village entrance.

Chen Ye’s angry shout didn’t wake the enraged Big Fool. The three-meter-tall muscle monster still had bloodshot eyes, his iron fists continuously hammering against the great willow’s trunk like sledgehammers.

The Titan Sequence was a powerful combat sequence among all sequences.

But it wasn’t without cost.

For example, once someone awakened the Titan Sequence, their intelligence would decrease to some extent.

Titan Sequence superhumans in combat mode easily entered berserk states, only recovering their senses when either they fell or their opponent fell.

“Big Fool! Let’s go!”

The long-legged girl’s body swayed unsteadily, but her remaining rationality told her she had to wake Big Fool now.

Otherwise, everyone would be in trouble.

But Big Fool completely ignored the long-legged girl’s warning, attacking the great willow like an angry lion.

“Chen Ye!”

The long-legged girl was completely exhausted now and had no choice but to seek Chen Ye’s help.

Chen Ye’s pupils slightly contracted. Even without understanding the Titan Sequence, he could tell Big Fool had likely fallen into some emotional state.

The long-legged girl’s plea was different from Zhou Lan and Zhou Xiaoxiao’s – these two were Sequence superhumans.

And that Big Fool had been quite friendly toward him.

To save or not to save?

This was the question.

If it were Zhou Lan or Zhou Xiaoxiao, Chen Ye absolutely wouldn’t save them.

But these two before him were Sequence superhumans – they had value worth saving!

In just 0.01 seconds, Chen Ye made his decision, gritting his teeth and stopping his retreat.

He aimed his hand crossbow at Big Fool’s arm and fired an arrow.

At this moment, Chen Ye wasn’t sure if his black dog blood bolt arrows would actually work, only hoping the pain could stir some rationality in Big Fool.

The bolt arrow only embedded its tip into Big Fool’s thick back muscles.

Exaggerated muscle tissue stopped Chen Ye’s arrowhead.

Chen Ye watched with inner shock – this Big Fool had such defensive power from muscle alone.

The Titan Sequence was truly terrifying.

“Roar!”

Iron Lion, in his furious state, felt the attack on his back. Turning around, he saw a short human running frantically.

Iron Lion roared loudly, taking large strides as he chased after Chen Ye.

Chen Ye inwardly cursed in dismay.

Damn it! Big Fool! That look in your eyes – are you planning to kill me?

Iron Lion’s eyes were bloodshot now, like an angry mammoth.

Seeing this, the long-legged girl felt slightly relieved. Using her leg strength, she lightly and skillfully stood on Iron Lion’s shoulder.

Even nearly exhausted, achieving this wasn’t difficult for the long-legged girl.

When passing the hill-like supply bundle, the long-legged girl shot out a rope that hooked onto the massive bundle, tying the other end to Iron Lion’s arm.

Like this, the group created a trail of dust as they charged straight toward Longevity Village’s entrance.

If viewed from above, one would see a long snake charging toward the entrance, with dust trails following the snake’s tail.

Chen Ye was now using all the strength he’d accumulated in his lifetime to run madly.

And at this moment, the entire Longevity Village awakened from its slumber.

Starting from the village center, countless willow branches surged madly toward the frantically fleeing survivors.

“Ah~~~ Save me, I don’t want to die yet, save me!”

A survivor who was slightly slower screamed in terror as willow branches grabbed his ankle and dragged him into the darkness.

Other survivors saw this and were scared out of their wits, running even more frantically.

Two or three more survivors were entangled by willow branches and dragged into darkness.

Several willow branches bypassed buildings, quietly spreading from the darkness on both sides of the street to block Chen Ye’s path.

Chen Ye raised his hand and fired an arrow.

The black dog blood-soaked bolt arrow pierced through the willow branch.

Amid faint, indistinct screams, the willow branch quickly retracted into the darkness.

Suddenly!

Chen Ye felt his ankle tighten. Before he could think, he felt his body lose balance as he was lifted upside down.

Finally my turn?

Chen Ye’s hand crossbow was empty now, with no means left.

Even if the long-legged girl wanted to help Chen Ye, the distance between them was still too far.

Chen Ye pulled the machete from his waist and chopped down hard at the willow branch.

Since obtaining this machete from Nana, Chen Ye had frequently soaked it in black dog blood.

There was no reason to soak the bolt arrows in black dog blood but not the machete.

Actually, Chen Ye didn’t know if soaking the machete in black dog blood would work – he was just trying it out.

Unexpectedly, with this chop, the willow branch emitted a faint, indistinct scream.

Chen Ye was overjoyed, chopping down two or three more times with the machete in his hand.

It was worth noting that although the survivors didn’t have firearms or other modern weapons, many had managed to obtain sharp tools.

Previously, when survivors used their sharp tools against willow branches, it had no effect whatsoever.

But now, the black dog blood-soaked machete actually worked.

How could this not make Chen Ye ecstatic?

The willow branch was chopped through, and Chen Ye’s body fell to the ground.

After rolling to his feet, Chen Ye didn’t care how disheveled he looked and began running frantically again.

“Yezi, get on here!”

A large hand directly scooped up Chen Ye, lifting him onto something soft.

It was the hill-like backpack.

The same backpack that Big Fool Iron Lion was carrying!

The bloodshot look in his eyes had faded, and the hill-like backpack was back on his shoulders.

Now Chen Ye had been thrown onto that massive backpack.

“Hold on tight, I’m about to accelerate!”

After saying this, Iron Lion’s speed suddenly increased dramatically. Chen Ye frantically grabbed the backpack to avoid being thrown off.

The village entrance was right before them!
