They were omnivorous animals with an extremely wide dietary range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the introduction on the young man's signboard, these meatworms could be fed with moldy bread, maggot-infested meat, or even rotten fruits and vegetables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if none of those were available, they could also be fed with grass or tender leaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During migration, you could just throw these meatworms on the ground. As long as there was grass, they could feed themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, raising these meatworms was very low-maintenance. Their crawling speed was very slow, so they didn't require much effort to look after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you ignored them, they wouldn't get very far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Male worms could grow to about fifty centimeters in length, while female worms reached about thirty to thirty-five centimeters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each male worm could yield approximately ten kilograms of meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Female worms yielded about seven kilograms of meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only drawback was their low reproductive capacity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When female worms reached their breeding period, most of the larvae they gave birth to could only be raised to adulthood as a meat supplement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Less than five percent would have reproductive capabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taste of these meatworms was somewhere between chicken and beef...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this line about the meatworm's description, Chen Ye's eyes lit up slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn't this just like the grain seeds Ding Dong had been taking care of?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both had super strong vitality, super fast maturation periods, and could also be raised within the migrating convoy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were simply the ideal livestock for the convoy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were simply...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only Chen Ye thought this, but many of the superhumans around him who saw the words on the signboard also started breathing heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the young man called \"Ye\" in front of them wasn't a Sequence 3 Knife Sharpener, they probably would have started trying to snatch it already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did everyone understand why there was a Sequence 3 young man selling this thing here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were a Sequence 1 or Sequence 2 superhuman, these meatworms would probably have been stolen already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People looked at each other, a very subtle emotion brewing among the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who had been crowded together earlier now spread out a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye's Blood Eye, hidden behind his Sunglasses, glowed faintly with a red light, the talismans in its pupils rotating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These meatworms in front of him were absolutely good stuff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Getting them through trade would be difficult. Currently, Chen Ye could only think of one method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was \"steal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with so many people around, making a move probably wouldn't be that simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye's figure retreated slightly as he pulled out a cigarette from his chest pocket and lit it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man also seemed to sense the subtle change in atmosphere, a trace of a disdainful smile curling at the corner of his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened his mouth, as if wanting to say something, but ultimately swallowed it back hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging by this guy's expression, he was probably a chatterbox before becoming a superhuman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Becoming a Knife Sharpener probably nearly drove him crazy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, young man, how do you want to trade for these meatworms?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man took out another sign from under his stall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only trade for Wonders or Ideal Grain Seeds!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget about Wonders, everyone wanted those.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ideal Grain Seeds...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the heck are Ideal Grain Seeds?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A naive fellow with a Sichuan-Chongqing accent asked blankly, looking around at the people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one paid him any attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon someone shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, kid, are you deliberately not wanting to trade? Something like Ideal Grain Seeds is something you encounter by chance, not by searching. Who the hell do you think has that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a big brother with a Northeast accent, cursing somewhat irritably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly, I've only ever heard of this thing. You're not being sincere, young man. If anyone really had this, who would trade with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Trading meatworms for Ideal Grain Seeds isn't impossible either!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, people with all sorts of accents were around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People with all sorts of opinions were there too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the young man in front of them didn't have Sequence 3 strength, they probably would have made a move already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The face of the speechless yet chatterbox young man in front slowly began to show impatience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out, picked up the toy knife in his hand, and swept his knife-like gaze over the chattering people around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mouth kept opening and closing, but no sound came out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, this guy was probably cursing very filthily right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Chen Ye didn't understand lip-reading very well, he could vaguely make out the young man's mouth shapes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Probably things like \"poor bastards\" or \"if you can't afford it, get lost.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no matter how filthily he cursed, the people around couldn't hear it, so no chaos erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one on the scene was willing to take out Ideal Grain Seeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But a few people still took out some Wonder-like items from their chests and offered them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold-faced chatterbox young man's eyelids lifted slightly, clearly showing some interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when the young man took a pair of frameless glasses from the hands of a bearded, round-faced young man wearing white socks...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bearded, round-faced, white-socked young man threw a flirtatious glance at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man was so startled his whole body shuddered. His originally extended hand changed to using his thumb and forefinger, \"pinching\" the frameless glasses over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man seemed to have checked the information of these glasses the moment he made contact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, his expression turned very ugly as he flung the item back, making a shooing motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bearded, round-faced, white-socked young man stamped his foot in anger and walked away with a sway of his hips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next person came up, taking a toy car from his chest and tossing it to the young man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take a look, do you want this thing? Serial number 6512. If you agree, I'll trade it to you right now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man picked up the toy car, checked its information, then without hesitation threw the toy car back at the person opposite him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The parting words between his lips were just one word: \"Get lost!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there was no sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was what Chen Ye deduced from lip-reading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person left with a very ugly expression, giving the knife-holding young man a deep look before leaving, as if intending to remember him well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few more people also went up and took out their own Wonders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without exception, they all failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, the crowd around grew thinner and thinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When only Chen Ye was left, the young man finally turned his gaze towards Chen Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye grinned, reached to his waist, and took off the Blasting Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man looked at it, then still shook his head and returned the Blasting Star to Chen Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the young man added a sentence to his signboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Serial numbers below three thousand, don't even bother!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Serial number three thousand?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If someone really had a Wonder with a serial number within three thousand, they probably wouldn't be willing to trade it either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye wasn't angry either.

Otherwise, we can't breed them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get lost!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man finally couldn't hold back, directly roaring out loud, breaking the side effect of not being able to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the young man in front was angered by Chen Ye's shamelessness.\u003C\u002Fp>",1773,"2026-05-30T15:16:55.251Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","031d73699f360da93bd14acd94f90534711e8af14befedf9a0f66eac5dd2d8a3","sequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--chapter-318","sequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--chapter-316",465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--cover.jpg"]
