On the road, Qin Siyang pulled out a Thousand-Leg Mushroom from his backpack, which he had taken from the cafeteria on Friday, and ate it as lunch while walking.
In the cafeteria, mushrooms were considered a top delicacy. With a texture similar to meat and the unique flavor of fungi, they could be casually stir-fried and still be impressive.
However, Qin Siyang had no mind to enjoy it; his entire focus was on how to become stronger in the future.
By the time Qin Siyang reached the Safe Zone Exit No. 89757, it was already afternoon.
Fortunately, his body had undergone enhancement yesterday, and his stamina was astonishing. He had been walking for nearly six hours since leaving home and still didn't feel tired.
But he knew this state wouldn't last too long, as he could no longer maintain the initial fast pace.
This made him less optimistic about going further to the Safe Zone Exit No. 38324.
"Going back and forth would take another two hours; it's not a wise move."
Seeing the sign for Exit No. 89757, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally here."
This time, he didn't head directly to the safe zone exit. After all, his target wasn't the Sequence Ability Users at the safe zone exit.
To avoid exposure, he chose to take a small path to check the situation of the trash bins first.
Having searched for trash bins near two safe zone exits, he already had a rough idea of their locations.
Sure enough, after crossing a block, he saw three trash bins filled with godly remains.
Watching the deep purple tentacles slowly crawl along the edge of the trash bin, Qin Siyang's heart raced.
He carefully looked around; there was no one, not even a cleaner.
Was this an opportunity or a trap?
He walked nonchalantly while analyzing carefully.
The disordered state of this trash bin seemed to indicate no deliberate arrangement.
Qin Siyang glanced at the filth on the ground; there was only a single striped shoe footprint trampling around the trash bin, likely belonging to a cleaner.
As for whether someone was secretly watching?
Highly unlikely.
The Safe Zone Exit No. 89757 had far fewer Sequence Ability Users than the Safe Zone Exit No. 54320, and relatively speaking, the trash bins here couldn't be more valued than those in the 54320 area.
If the large trash station at Safe Zone No. 54320 only had two plainclothes officers, then undoubtedly, the Safe Zone Exit No. 89757 couldn't have more advanced surveillance methods!
No one nearby meant no surveillance!
This meant that the disappearance of godly remains from the trash bins at the No. 114514 Safe Zone Exit last night had only reached the Safe Zone Exit No. 54320 and hadn't spread further!
He originally planned to check the Safe Zone Exit No. 38324, as there was definitely a feast waiting for him there. But now his body showed signs of fatigue, seemingly unable to support him to try his luck there.
So it's decided, the trash bins at No. 89757!
He knew his analysis wasn't foolproof.
But, fame and fortune come with risks!
Qin Siyang, living a second life, wasn't planning to repeat the mundane life of his past.
At the very least, he wanted to use his powerful Sequence Ability to leave the edge of the safe zone and achieve financial freedom.
So, he had to become stronger.
He had to become stronger as quickly as possible.
Having made up his mind, Qin Siyang decided to take advantage of the absence of people and quickly devour the contents of the trash bin.
This time, the godly remains in the trash bins were three to four times what he had eaten yesterday.
He had to speed up and resolve everything quickly. If he chewed slowly like yesterday and needed water to help, he wouldn't know when he could finish these three bins of delicacies, and he might get exposed!
But once he sped up his eating, he couldn't be cautious about his clothes, and he might end up with blood stains, which could bring huge trouble.
So before eating, he carefully took off all his outerwear and hung it on a nearby streetlight. The metal shell of the streetlight had several hooks, and Qin Siyang didn't know what they were for, but they were perfect for hanging his clothes now.
Then he went to the trash bin, bare-chested.
This was near the safe zone exit, much colder than other places. The cold wind rushing in when the safe zone exit opened swirled through the streets, giving Qin Siyang goosebumps.
Safety first; to ensure his clothes stayed clean, he had to endure the cold while eating.
Looking at the array of godly remains, Qin Siyang shivered with excitement.
He swallowed and said, "Let's dig in!!!"
Whether it was familiarity or improved physical strength, his swallowing power had also increased. This time, he swallowed the godly remains several times faster than yesterday.
Where he used to choke, today he could stuff remains into his mouth with both hands and swallow immediately, so his hands hardly stopped. In just over ten minutes, he almost finished the godly remains from the three trash bins.
As he ate, his entire body was continuously enhanced.
By the time he was about to finish the godly remains from the three trash bins, he realized that even bare-chested, he didn't shiver from the cold here, and his whole body was filled with strength.
"So effective?!"
Qin Siyang looked at his increasingly defined chest and abs, showing a satisfied smile.
At that moment, the information in his mind changed.
[Sequence "God Eater" Promotion]
[Digesting gods makes you stronger]
[Current Sequence Level: Level 2, Greedy Fanatic]
[Skill: Blood Drink. Skill Description: Can digest gods raw.]
[Skill: Violence. Skill Description: For ten minutes, strength, agility, and physical toughness increase threefold, and no pain is felt during this period.]
Level up!
Qin Siyang's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at his information panel. New chapters come out on g.com first.
The new skill [Violence] enhanced his strength and agility, and made him immune to pain.
This skill seemed to greatly enhance his combat ability!
Could his current strength allow him to join the Sequence Ability Users' god-hunting team?
He remembered browsing the [Godslayer Camp] forum last time and saw a Sequence called [Warrior] with a [Enhancement] skill that doubled strength and physical toughness for five minutes, already considered a "bug skill among low-level Sequence Users."
His [Violence] clearly surpassed [Enhancement] in all aspects, making him the king among low-level Sequence Users!
With such a strong skill, should he join a Sequence Ability User team, or go solo?
He had many thoughts but no answers.
Suddenly, he realized a problem.
The most important thing now wasn't to reveal his identity as a Sequence Ability User, but to find a way to conceal his [God Eater] Sequence, so others wouldn't know.
For this, he had to visit the Internet Cafe again to find a Sequence disguise to blend in.
Otherwise, if others found out his Sequence was [God Eater], who knew what threats he would face.
But that was something for after he received his library job salary next week. At least for the next week, he still had to live as an ordinary student.
Future matters could wait for the future.
Today he had already advanced his Sequence, so he should quit while he's ahead.
If he greedily went to the Safe Zone Exit No. 38324 to eat, the risk was too high. The Safe Zone Exit No. 38324 was only three stops away from here, and if people here noticed something amiss, they might notify those at the Safe Zone Exit No. 38324 to guard the trash bins and catch him red-handed!
Let's stop here for now.
After finishing the last ten or so godly remains in the trash bin, he should head home. Qin Siyang made up his mind and was about to continue, ending this sumptuous feast.
Suddenly, he heard footsteps.
Someone was coming?! How unlucky!
But the footsteps seemed a bit unsteady.
He turned to look and saw a drunkard staggering towards the trash bins from afar.
The drunkard didn't seem to notice Qin Siyang and was humming a tuneless song, making Qin Siyang even more anxious.
"If this drunkard discovers the trash bin's anomaly, the area might be sealed off soon!"
He didn't bother wiping the blood off himself, hesitated for a moment, quickly stuffed the last ten or so godly remains into his backpack, then dressed, slung the backpack over his shoulder, and sprinted away.
After his Sequence promotion, his body had undergone another qualitative leap, and his full-speed running was so fast that he could barely see the roadside railings speeding past.
Qin Siyang silently prayed in his heart.
Please don't let them catch me before I escape!
The drunkard, holding a bottle, wobbled to the trash bin, scratched his head, "I thought I saw someone here just now, but they're gone in a blink? Could it be someone like me... hic... a Sequence Ability User?"
He tossed the bottle into the trash bin, and it clinked against the bin with a crisp sound.
"Hmm? The trash bin seems empty?"
