Under the night sky, Sha Sha and Da Lou, along with a few team members from Infinity, wore gas masks as they searched through the insect corpses around the camp for Blood Essence.
"It stinks, it really stinks."
Sha Sha, holding a gun, could still detect that incomparable stench even though she was wearing a gas mask.
Da Lou sliced open the head of a large black beetle with a single stroke, and amidst the spreading black mist, a blood essence eerily appeared on the ground.
"Oh, found one!!" Sha Sha leapt over deftly, picked it up, wiped it clean with a glove, and upon seeing the crystal-clear red blood essence, her eyes showed a hint of delight. She then carefully put it into the pouch she carried at her waist.
"Let’s go, let’s go, let’s search over there. I remember Brother Huo burned a big red bug there initially, so there must be blood essence."
Searching the insect corpses was not limited to the Infinity convoy, as other convoys were also patrolling and rummaging through the insect corpses near their camps. On one hand, it was to prevent any potential survivors, but mainly because Blood Essence was an excellent equivalent item, especially now that the survivors knew that the Phoenix Society had discovered its value, their enthusiasm for it had increased.
On the other side, Chen Sixuan, along with Miao Lu, Xiao Yuan, and others from the convoy, began exchanging various useful supplies with members of other convoys in the camp, as well as sharing some tips and minor intelligence for surviving the apocalypse.
A bonfire was raised in the center of the camp, with people from various parties eagerly participating. Upon learning that there were severely injured people within the Big Eagle Caravan and Running Camp Team, Lin Xian instructed Chen Sixuan to arrange for these individuals to be placed on the vehicle and assisted using the onboard all-purpose life-saving capsules.
This caused a huge commotion throughout the camp!
High-grade treatment capsules seemed like a miracle descended upon these convoys. Those who were originally injured, and even children and women with chronic illnesses, now felt the dawn of hope.
Many of the wounded were healed in a short period, and at the same time, Chen Sixuan also exchanged for many useful living supplies, enriching the living compartments within the train significantly.
In the apocalypse, the atmosphere of uniting for warmth and mutual assistance was highly infectious. It wasn’t long before the people from several convoys became familiar with one another. Since they had to leave before dawn tomorrow, everyone was busy with exchange work. The men and skilled personnel were repairing vehicles and armor, while the young boys and girls were diligently helping with moving supplies and cleaning car windows. The main guard force also took the precious time to train newly recruited young people in firearms and rescue skills, contributing their efforts to the team.

Deep in the night, the exchange activities between the convoys had ceased, and each convoy started their rest. Due to the rapid temperature drop, the rotating guards put on thick coats as they patrolled the camp’s perimeter.
In Infinity’s Car No. 12, Lin Xian looked at the enhancement and research projects, taking a deep breath.
His Wind Cannon would be officially upgraded before dawn tomorrow, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit of anticipation. His offensive means would achieve a comprehensive advancement, not just the basic skills. This time, the practical use of the Gravitational Lens had truly exceeded Lin Xian’s expectations. It severely injured that red-lamp-headed monster at a crucial moment. He originally thought it could merely distort some light as a control-type skill. Now it seemed, this skill still had significant development potential!
