Taking Iron Lion’s things naturally meant helping Iron Lion fix his vehicle.

Seeing Chen Ye arrive, many people put down their work and looked at him with expectant eyes.

“Yezi, you’re here!”

“Yeah, just came to take a look. Still not fixed yet?”

“No, sigh~~~ I don’t know what’s wrong. I should have never swapped for this vehicle in the first place!”

A trace of regret appeared on Iron Lion’s honest-looking face.

This school bus was definitely much better than the previous bus.

Just the space inside this vehicle was about thirty percent larger than the previous bus.

Moreover, the interior height was much taller than the previous bus, and the cabin space was much wider.

Someone as bulky as Iron Lion definitely needed a larger vehicle.

“No problem, let me take a look for you!”

As Chen Ye walked over, the survivors who were still repairing made way for him.

At this point, the school bus’s engine compartment had been mostly dismantled, and with just one glance, you could see the exposed steel heart and the greasy engine oil.

It had to be said that Iron Lion was quite lucky to find a school bus that could still run in such an environment.

Chen Ye placed his hand against the school bus’s body, and a system dialog box appeared before his eyes.

“System, inspect this vehicle’s condition!”

[Inspection complete. Vehicle integrity: 87%.]

Seeing this integrity rating, Chen Ye roughly understood that there shouldn’t be any major issues with this school bus.

The problems Iron Lion mentioned earlier were probably just concerns that made him want Chen Ye to take a look.

In this apocalypse, the importance of vehicles went without saying.

“System, provide a list of vehicle problems!”

A table quickly appeared before his eyes.

There were about seven or eight problems listed in the table, half of which were related to the vehicle’s exterior.

Such as peeling paint or body deformation.

Chen Ye quickly found the issues Iron Lion mentioned earlier in the table – the abnormal vehicle noises and weak throttle response.

From the looks of it, these problems wouldn’t significantly affect the vehicle’s operation in the short term.

But if left unresolved for a long time, small issues could turn into major problems.

Iron Lion had just obtained this vehicle, so he was naturally somewhat worried.

The activity between Chen Ye and Iron Lion quickly drew attention from other survivors.

The convoy only had about forty people, so any news spread quickly throughout the entire group.

Like how Chen Ye was previously a Mechanic Sequence, and had awakened some superpower sequence.

Now Chen Ye was clearly going to help Iron Lion repair the vehicle.

Therefore, everyone wanted to see exactly how Chen Ye would fix the vehicle.

Seeing Chen Ye standing motionless with his hand pressed against the yellow school bus, people around began whispering.

“Sis, what is Chen Ye doing? Why isn’t he moving at all?”

“I don’t know, probably activating his superpower ability.”

The Zhou sisters were also in the crowd.

Especially Zhou Xiaoxiao, whose desire for Sequence Superpowers was unparalleled – this girl dreamed of awakening a sequence and becoming a superhuman.

Therefore, she would never pass up this opportunity to observe Sequence Superpowers up close.

Quite a few people shared similar thoughts as Zhou Xiaoxiao.

Seeing Chen Ye’s palm pressed motionless against the vehicle body, many people around were discussing something.

Even the long-legged girl Nana came.

She had never seen Chen Ye use his Mechanic abilities on site before.

By now, Chen Ye had seen the problem list provided by the system and identified the main issues.

“System, if I want to repair this problem, how many Slaughter Points are needed?”

[Requires 150 Slaughter Points!]

One hundred fifty points?

Chen Ye felt a bit pained.

This system was treating him like he was made of money.

But he had already taken a pack of Ta cigarettes from Iron Lion, and asking Chen Ye to return them now saying he couldn’t fix it was something Chen Ye would absolutely not be willing to do.

Even someone as stingy as Chen Ye couldn’t bear to spend 150 Slaughter Points.

“System, can you provide repair guidance? Does this require Slaughter Points?”

[Repair guidance only requires 10 Slaughter Points!]

Hearing it only required 10 Slaughter Points, Chen Ye was instantly tempted.

He immediately exchanged for 10 Slaughter Points.

Then repair guidance provided by the system appeared before Chen Ye’s eyes.

Chen Ye’s expression didn’t change as he habitually lit a cigarette, took tools from a nearby survivor, and began the repairs.

Everyone on site practically craned their necks to see inside.

They saw Chen Ye disassembling various parts in the engine compartment with incredible familiarity…

The feeling was like… like a master mechanic with decades of repair experience was working.

A few minutes later.

Chen Ye completely fixed Iron Lion’s vehicle.

The bespectacled man Old Li got in to test it – smooth startup, rapid throttle response.

Iron Lion was overjoyed, patting Chen Ye’s shoulder and grinning happily at him.

But the survivors around them were disappointed.

“That’s it…”

“I thought we’d get to see superpowers, but it ended just like that…”

“This Mechanic Sequence is probably fake too!”

“If it were me… I could also…”

“You could what? You think you could do it if you tried?”

“I…”

Nana took a swig of beer from her bottle, then strode away on her long legs.

The Zhou sisters exchanged glances, both seeing confusion in each other’s eyes.

In the crowd, a round-faced sharp-chinned woman stood there with disheveled hair.

If anyone had noticed her, they might have seen that the woman’s eyes were glowing.

This woman was none other than the former online feminist athlete Xu Jiaojiao.

After Captain Chu employed a small trick, this woman lost all social standing in the convoy, with several people even thoroughly disliking her.

After that incident, the woman had been lying low.

When they went to Longevity Village last time, this woman didn’t go at all due to fear.

Now in the convoy, Xu Jiaojiao maintained her livelihood by helping others.

Unfortunately, this woman had average figure, average looks, and aside from confidence that far exceeded ordinary people, she had no particular skills.

Therefore, she wasn’t doing well, living like a rat in the gutter within the convoy.

But it wasn’t necessarily true that she had completely submitted.

Recently, this woman had been connecting with other survivors, trying to overthrow the rule of the Sequence Superhumans.

But it had minimal effect.

And now, hearing these words in her ears, Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes grew brighter and brighter, and her gaze toward Chen Ye carried a meaningful quality.

Plus, the recent peace had made her restless heart become active again.

Chen Ye clapped his hands, stood up, and prepared to leave.

Meanwhile, the survivors who had been tinkering for a long time but still couldn’t fix the vehicle looked at Chen Ye with admiring eyes.

Only they themselves knew how truly skilled this person before them was.

It was already past 11 PM.

The desert temperature had plummeted.

Survivors had already wrapped themselves tightly in their clothes.

Those with vehicles had already gotten inside.

Those without vehicles had already entered their tents.

Chen Ye also felt a chill, but now wasn’t the time to rest.

There was one thing Chen Ye had wanted to do for a long time but kept putting off.

That was to find Captain Chu to exchange for that solar charging panel.

He had wanted this thing for ages.

With this solar charging panel, not only could the electronic watch he found earlier in Longevity Village be used.

Even his Apocalyptic Pickup Truck could utilize electrical power.
