Post-Apocalyptic Highway Survival: I Have a Sequence Caravan

Chapter 4 Bizarre Rules - Candy Doll

After entering the village, Zhao Hai immediately found a house and pushed open the door.

Zhao Hai searched the house very thoroughly, turning everything upside down, even searching under the bed, but he only found half a loaf of bread.

Seeing that only half a loaf of bread had been found, Zhao Hai's expression turned somewhat grim.

Although he had experienced not finding anything at a house before, it was no wonder he was in a good mood when the things he found at his first house were so disappointing!

Even so, Zhao Hai continued walking towards another house without stopping.

The door to the other house was not open like the first house Zhao Hai had visited.

Seeing that the gate was locked, Zhao Hai found a rock, smashed the window of the house, and climbed in through the window.

When he came in, Zhao Hai's eyes widened in surprise.

He saw two packs of instant noodles and half a carton of Baisha cigarettes on the cabinet in the house.

In the apocalypse, the value of instant noodles is self-evident. They are not only fast food but also filling, and most importantly, they are easy to carry.

As for the claim that instant noodles have no nutritional value, like they were said before the apocalypse? Just kidding. It's the apocalypse now. Who cares about nutrition? As long as it fills your stomach, it's delicious.

Even in this apocalyptic world, a pack of cheap instant noodles from before the apocalypse is enough to sleep with a pretty woman for one night.

In the apocalypse, cigarettes are also a form of hard currency.

In just half a day of Baisha smoke, Zhao Hai could exchange it for at least five days' worth of food for himself and the rest of the convoy, and that's a conservative estimate!

Seeing the instant noodles and cigarettes on the cabinet, Zhao Hai thought to himself:

"We've struck it rich! We've struck it rich! We've made a fortune!"

Zhao Hai immediately ran over and stuffed the two packets of instant noodles and half a pack of Baisha cigarettes into his bag.

There are instant noodles and cigarettes on the cabinet, but what's inside the cabinet?

Zhao Hai had already opened the cabinet without waiting.

As the cabinet door opened, there were five or six bundles of noodles and a small half-bag of rice inside.

Zhao Hai first tied the small half-bag of rice tightly with a rope, put the rice into his bag first, and then put the noodles in to prevent the noodles from being crushed by the rice.

Zhao Haigang was preparing to search for supplies in other parts of the house.

"whee……"

A child's laughter rang out.

"Hehe! Brother, you took so many things from me, can you give me a piece of candy? Hehe!"

The sound was faint, seemingly both near and far.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai felt a chill run down his spine.

Surprising!

These two words immediately popped into Zhao Hai's mind.

Before he could even turn his head, a doll the size of a palm, resembling a girl, had floated up to him, less than a meter away.

Looking at the eerie doll floating in front of him, Zhao Hai raised his hand instinctively without thinking.

"Whoosh!"

A crossbow bolt was fired, piercing straight through the body of the eerie doll.

However, the crossbow bolt did not cause any damage to the strange creature.

At this moment, Zhao Hai just wanted to curse.

Although strange occurrences are rare on the outskirts of villages, it's not uncommon to encounter such situations before; it's just that the unlucky one wasn't Zhao Hai.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hai had such "good luck" this time.

Zhao Hai was speechless. He couldn't seem to have any luck when buying lottery tickets, but this was the very thing that happened to him.

"Hehe...candy! Brother, I want candy. If you don't have any candy, then I'll just have to eat you instead! Hehe!"

At the same time, Zhao Hai's consciousness also arrived at the system shop. Without any hesitation, he directly used the sign-in point he had just obtained in the early morning to exchange for the information about that strange weakness.

"Beep! Redemption successful!"

"The strange rule in front of you is called 'Sugar Doll.' From the moment it asks you for candy, you have one minute to give Sugar Doll a piece of candy."

If you don't give the candy to the candy doll within one minute, the candy doll will eat you!

"If you give the candy to the candy doll in one minute, the candy doll will not attack you for the next minute."

If you're an ordinary person, then run as fast as you can. Of course, if you're a superhuman, the Sugar Doll's rules will be ineffective for this minute, and its combat power will be weaker than a regular monster; you can try to kill it then!

The rules are bizarre!

Most of the time, the survivors encounter ordinary monsters with powerful attack capabilities, but at least they are still within people's comprehension.

The methods are nothing more than overwhelming power: dreams, illusions, sensory distortions, mental attacks...

This is an existence that ordinary survivors cannot contend with; encountering it almost certainly means certain death.

However, for those with superhuman abilities, as long as the situation isn't too bizarre or abnormal, they still have ways to fight back.

But Zhao Hai had also heard that above ordinary strange phenomena, there was an even rarer kind that could cause an extremely high mortality rate to superhumans!

These kinds of strange occurrences are collectively referred to as rule-based strange occurrences.

This terrifying entity often appears without warning and then kills people according to some special pattern, making it difficult to predict!

Encountering such a bizarre situation requires countless lives to explore its rules, but even so, escaping is extremely difficult.

Most of the time, people die before they even figure out the rules, the strange rules.

The bizarre rules played a significant role in the fall of many cities on Earth.

Faced with such a bizarre situation, even those with extraordinary sequences have a survival rate that is only slightly higher than that of ordinary survivors!

Zhao Hai never expected that what he encountered today would be the legendary bizarre rules!

After all, the usual strange rules only exist in large cities. Who would have thought that there would be a strange rule in this remote village!

However, upon closer reflection, Zhao Hai understood.

If the strange creature I encountered today were just an ordinary one, only a meter away, I would be dead already. There would be no time to exchange for the creature's weaknesses with the system.

After all, the bizarre rules don't kill people directly at first; they only kill you when you break the rules!

Knowing that the strange rule was to give her the candy within one minute, Zhao Hai immediately started rummaging through his backpack, hoping to find the White Rabbit milk candy he had put in his bag as soon as possible!

After all, he had already encountered this strangely shaped creature for half a minute.

If I can't find this White Rabbit candy within half a minute, I'm going to die here today!

While Zhao Hai was searching for candy, the candy doll floating in front of him kept making noise.

"Hehe! Brother, candy! I want candy!"

……

Zhao Hai ignored the strange sound that was swirling around his ears.

If Zhao Hai hadn't known these bizarre rules, he would have been filled with immense fear.

But by this time he already knew about this strange rule through the system, so he was no longer flustered.
