Having a Sequence 4 pathfinder in the convoy gave them tremendous leeway when it came to resting.

In the past, when they camped, after the pathfinder released the Concealment Barrier, they could only stay in one place for a maximum of three days before they had to leave.

But now.

According to Squad Leader Chu, if the convoy wasn't in a hurry to travel.

A Sequence 4's Concealment Barrier could guarantee that the convoy wouldn't leak any aura of the living for anywhere from three to fifteen days.

A Sequence 4 pathfinder's Concealment Barrier not only covered a much larger area but also had a strengthened ability to mask the living aura.

In other words, the convoy's rest time was now vastly extended!

Fifteen days...

Of course, the exact duration would still vary depending on the specific situation.

But this news was still incredibly heartening and encouraging.

This amount of time was undoubtedly the best news possible for everyone living a nomadic life.

Fifteen days...

What kind of life had the convoy led before?

Even at the best places, like that ideal hot spring hill.

They'd only stayed for a few days.

Even Fairy Lake, a place so beautiful it didn't seem real.

They'd only stayed for three days.

Fifteen days. They could do so, so much.

But this news was still incredibly heartening.

According to Ding Dong, this could increase the yield of the Ideal Grain Seeds and improve the rate of high-quality seeds.

They could also let the meatworms out of their cages.

A better breeding environment could increase the meatworms' meat production rate.

Maybe they could even breed a few more reproductive meatworms.

And the chickens! A good environment could reportedly increase their egg-laying rate too.

They couldn't completely return to their old, settled life.

But this was still very, very good...

It could be said that after Chu Che upgraded to Sequence 4, the entire convoy could transition from their original nomadic life into a semi-nomadic life.

If they could rest at a camp for fifteen days.

It would be enough time for everyone in the convoy to get immense rest and readjust.

The convoy had officially moved from a nomadic life to a semi-nomadic one.

Hearing this news, the entire convoy was swept up in unprecedented joy.

A nomadic life was torture for many people.

Even Chen Ye, Sun Xixi, Iron Lion, and Gong Yong, despite their strength, showed clear joy on their faces after Chu Che personally confirmed this.

Before, the convoy had been constantly migrating, constantly fleeing.

That's why, ever since Chu Che advanced to Sequence 4, he hadn't told everyone about this.

Now that they'd finally reached a safe place, Squad Leader Chu brought it up to calm everyone's anger.

After all, the palm-print marks on Iron Lion, Xu Lina, and Gong Yong's faces were truly a bit too glaring!

"Ahem... everyone, don't get too excited just yet!"

"The most important thing for us right now is to get out of here..."

Chu Che, sporting a black eye, tried his best to maintain the dignity of being the squad leader.

There was no helping it. Even as a Sequence 4 pathfinder, he still had almost no combat power.

When facing a beating from Sun Xixi, a Sword Immortal Sequence user, his only option was to tough it out.

Unless Squad Leader Chu pulled out his trump card.

But something like the Love Brain Lighter would only serve to further infuriate Sun Xixi.

There were two other people with black eyes just like Chu Che.

One was Chen Ye, and the other was Dantai Bie.

Chen Ye was the most cunning of the lot.

Plus, due to some special reasons, he didn't look particularly battered.

Besides, the Blood Moon Lord was also very powerful.

Of course, Dantai Bie was the worst off.

This guy, who was something of a clean freak, always kept himself spotless.

Other people, after this long in the apocalypse, were already filthy.

When they got tired, they'd just lie down wherever.

Even Chen Ye and Chu Che weren't exactly clean.

Resources were limited, after all.

That guy Gong Yong was covered in oil stains; the original color of his work clothes was long gone.

But Dantai Bie still insisted on washing his face with clean water every day, and he was rarely seen just lying down anywhere.

Just a moment ago, when he got beaten up by Xiao Yu and the others, his clean clothes had been reduced to rags.

For a clean freak like Dantai Bie, this was simply unbearable.

Xiao Yu was in a great mood, clearly happy with her contribution to the scuffle.

Of course, the lumps on her face weren't going away anytime soon.

Some of those lumps were from Xu Lina, and the others were from Sun Xixi, who'd come back after beating Chu Che and Chen Ye.

Superhumans hitting superhumans meant they knew how to hit in a way that wouldn't cause serious injury, but would still make you uncomfortable for a while.

"Bast... Squad Leader, is Sequence 4 really that good...?"

"Ouch..."

Speaking pulled at the swelling on his face, and Dantai Bie, holding his cheek, looked at Chen Ye and Chu Che with a resentful expression.

Chen Ye pretended not to see.

Chu Che's face flickered with 0.0001 seconds of awkwardness.

But he still forced a concerned tone: "If your injuries aren't healed yet, you should talk less!"

Dantai Bie raged inwardly: And whose fault are these injuries, anyway? Squad Leader Chu, I misjudged you! 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Chu Che ignored Dantai Bie's look, cleared his throat, and continued.

"Everyone, the most important thing right now is to leave this place."

"The supplies we have aren't enough for us to stay here much longer."

"According to my estimate, if we can just cross a few more mountains ahead, we can return to our original world!"

"Once we're back, we can go into the cities to scavenge for supplies. With our convoy's current strength..."

"Gathering supplies won't be a very difficult task!"

"When that happens, our lives will be much easier!"

"Then we can..."

It was all just pie in the sky!

This was a skill every convoy leader had to master.

Even if they returned to the cities, it had already been two years since the apocalypse started.

Most of the food in the cities would have expired long ago.

Not to mention whether they could even find food, just the things lurking in those Uninhabited Forbidden Zones were enough to make any superhuman's blood run cold.

However, just getting back to the original world, even if food wasn't guaranteed, they should be able to find plenty of other supplies to replenish.

At the very least, life would be much better than it was here.

This place... it just made people uneasy.

A place like the Sea of Chaotic Graves existed here.

Who knew what other unknown horrors this brand-new continent held?

"And there's one more thing that everyone has probably forgotten!"

"The Return to the City Plan is about to begin!"

"I think many convoys will be heading there this time!"

"The Fair Convoy has already agreed to participate, so we can't miss it!"

"If we have the chance to return to the city, it's a good thing for us!"

"You all heard some news earlier: this Return to the City Plan will feature one of the top ten numbered Wonders!"

"Maybe, just maybe, this time it could actually succeed!"

"Of course, we might also see a lot of old friends there."

"..."

Blah, blah, blah...

Chu Che rambled on and on.

Going back and forth over the same few topics.

Of course, Squad Leader Chu Che's pie-in-the-sky talk wasn't completely useless.

Even the ordinary people were incredibly excited just to hear they could return to the old world.

Even if there were already countless uninhabited zones there.

Even if the cities they once lived in were now filled with countless dangers.

Everyone was still happy.

Even if they were going to die, they'd rather die in their former world.

Upon hearing about the Return to the City Plan.

The superhumans didn't react much.

They already knew about it.

But the ordinary members of the convoy were incredibly excited.

The thought of returning to the home where humanity once lived...

Some people had already started daydreaming about what kind of life they'd lead when they got back to the city.
