Chu Che was feeling both embarrassed and angry.
According to his original plan, the convoy was supposed to split into four small teams and enter the Oasis without anyone noticing.
But the mont they just entered this place, they were discovered by the staff.
Although the staff didn't take any forceful action against them.
If they tried to stubbornly stick to their story now, it would probably only make them look more suspicious.
"No, who ca up with such a stupid thod?"
That plan of entering the city in separate batches now looked utterly foolish.
They were spotted by the staff as soon as they entered the city.
Chu Che, Sun Xixi, Ding Dong, and Iron Lion, along with over a hundred survivors, were all gathered at the city gate of Oasis City. Many uniford ard personnel were casting wary glances their way.
If it weren't for the four Sequence Superhumans among them, soone would probably have already co to chase them away.
Both Chu Che and Sun Xixi had used Chen Ye's na as their alias.
And they ended up colliding with each other.
When Iron Lion was entering the city, he happened to run into the two of them. With his simple mind, it would've been strange if he wasn't seen through.
The staff asked one question, "Are you together?"
And Iron Lion was exposed.
As for Ding Dong, she was with Chu Che from the start...
The Pink-haired Girl quickly clarified, "Not ! I never said anything about entering the city in separate batches!"
Iron Lion shook his head with a simple, honest expression. "Wasn't either, I don't know anything!"
Ding Dong remained silent, saying nothing.
"It must have been Chen Ye, definitely him!"
"Right, it was him! We're not that stupid!"
"Huh?~~~"
Iron Lion looked utterly bewildered.
Ding Dong continued her silent treatnt.
And so, this stupid command that hadn't even been executed yet beca Chen Ye's idea.
Since Chen Ye wasn't here right now, pinning the bla on him was perfect.
To be fair, this thod wasn't completely foolish.
It was just that deviations occurred during the execution.
Chu Che had underestimated the tacit understanding between himself and his teammates, and overestimated the acting skills of the ordinary convoy mbers.
"By the way, where's Chen Ye?"
Finally, soone rembered that Chen Ye hadn't arrived yet.
"Forget it, let's not wait for him. We'll go in first! He'll contact us."
The ordinary survivors of the convoy were now examining this legendary Oasis they had worked so hard to find.
One by one, their expressions turned rather gloomy.
"This... this is the legendary Oasis?"
"How could it be like this?"
"It's fake, right? Weren't they saying how amazing the legendary Oasis was? Why is it even shabbier than the town in my hotown?"
"Look at what tis these are. It's the apocalypse. Having a place like this is already pretty good."
"..."
The scene before their eyes left the group who had endured countless hardships to get here feeling sowhat disappointed.
The words "legendary Oasis" had built up too many expectations.
It wasn't that this place was terrible.
In the current apocalyptic environnt, a place like this was still quite rare.
It was just that everyone's expectations had been too high. In their minds, the legendary Oasis was supposed to be more prosperous than a first-tier city before the apocalypse.
Even if it couldn't compare to a first-tier city, it should at least be on par with second or third-tier cities.
But right now, this place could only be considered a relatively clean small town.
A main road led straight to the city gate, with rows of two or three-story single-story houses lining both sides of the street.
The pedestrians on the street looked sallow and thin, with deeply sunken cheeks. Their clothes were mostly tattered and worn, and their expressions were numb.
The clothing on these pedestrians all seed to be styles from before the apocalypse.
So were already in tatters.
If this were before the apocalypse, such clothes would have been thrown away long ago.
But now, these pedestrians were still wearing them.
After seeing this group of outsiders, these pedestrians slowly raised their heads, looking at the newcors with curiosity and numbness, like zombies.
Only this street bore so resemblance to the legendary Oasis.
At least in the green belts on both sides of the street, there were a few lush, verdant trees.
It looked sowhat similar to the Divine Elephant Village back then.
Only the scale was much larger than Divine Elephant Village. At least they weren't using thatch for roofs.
There were also streetlights on both sides of the street, sothing Divine Elephant Village lacked.
Streetlights?
Did that an they had electricity here?
This did offer everyone a tiny bit of psychological comfort.
As for aesthetics or beauty...
It seed the people who built this town didn't have the ti to consider such things.
The pedestrians on the street all had faces the color of wilted vegetables.
The previous claim that the legendary Oasis had unlimited supplies was probably false.
The anticipation in the convoy mbers' eyes slowly faded, and the smiles on their faces gradually disappeared.
This place was simply not the legendary Oasis at all.
Just then, a uniford staff mber walked over. Before he even got close, his face revealed an ingratiating expression.
This man had a fair and plump appearance, and the smile on his face was also very fawning.
He gave off a feeling of national peace and prosperity.
Only his smile looked a bit fake.
It had to be said, in an era of scarce supplies like the apocalypse, managing to look so fair and plump was quite an achievent.
There used to be a few fat guys in the convoy.
Now they had all beco skinny.
The only good thing about the apocalypse was not having to go to work, not having to pay mortgages or car loans, and not having to worry about not being able to lose weight.
"Respected Superhuman sirs, I am a guide for the Oasis, specially serving Superhumans..."
"The Oasis has special residences provided for Superhumans in the inner city! Please follow ."
While saying these words, this plump staff mber was slightly bowing. His expression was extrely ingratiating, and even his speaking voice sounded very gentle, clearly having practiced at ho several tis.
Chu Che pointed to the ordinary convoy mbers behind him. "What about them?"
A trace of barely noticeable disdain flashed across the plump staff mber's face, though his voice remained respectful.
"Apologies, the resources in the inner city are limited. It's impossible to let everyone live in the inner city. These ordinary people can only live in the outer city!"
"But please rest assured, respected Superhuman sirs, Mr. Cha has specially arranged an area for ordinary people to live."
"If you wish to leave later, you can go to the outer city to take them with you then."
"The Oasis will not restrict your movents..."
"If you are not comfortable with this, Oasis City will not force you. You can all live together in the outer city district."
"The Oasis also has a special parking lot. Your vehicles can follow the staff to be parked there. Of course, the inner city also has a parking lot..."
The plump guide respectfully explained the rules of Oasis City.
In these simple few sentences, he had already divided Superhumans and ordinary people into two distinct classes.
The faces of so ordinary convoy mbers standing nearby instantly beca less pleasant.
They hadn't expected that even after arriving here, they would be treated differently.
But these people clearly didn't have the courage to say anything.
Not just others, even they themselves ntally separated Superhumans from ordinary people.
After the brief introduction ended, this plump staff mber took out four talisman papers and respectfully handed them to the four.
"Respected Superhuman sirs, these are Concealnt Talismans. They have the effect of shielding living aura. During your ti in the Oasis, please wear the Concealnt Talismans. Thank you for your cooperation!"
Chu Che took the talisman paper and found it looked very similar to the talisman paper Chen Ye had shown him before.
That guy called Old He had tried to steal Chen Ye's Monster Pickup Truck, ended up being devoured by the Monster Pickup Truck, and left behind a talisman paper.
Later, Chen Ye took that talisman paper and showed it to Chu Che.
That's how Chu Che recognized this talisman paper.
So this was called a Concealnt Talisman!
Not far away, over by the ordinary convoy mbers, staff had already started distributing similar talismans.
Their impatient tone and expressions ford a sharp contrast with the fawning respect on this fat man's face.
The convoy mbers were quickly divided into two groups.
Chu Che and the other Superhumans were led by the plump guide toward the inner city.
As for the other ordinary convoy mbers.
Chu Che threw a glance at Xue Nan. Xue Nan understood imdiately, nodding subtly, then led the ordinary convoy mbers away, following the sowhat impatient staff.
