In the teachers' conference room on the top floor of the teaching building of Dongcheng Cultivation School, Ke Shan, the principal of Dongcheng School, sat at the top. On both sides of the long conference table sat the teachers of the school. In addition, the heads of several families such as the Wang family and the Ming family of Haicheng who sent their children to the school this time also gathered here.
"What is going on now? We are trapped here and cannot get out. There are infected monsters everywhere! How is your school's security work done? You must give us an explanation!" The person in charge of the Wang family in Haicheng took the lead in attacking.
Principal Ke raised his hand and spoke gravely, "The school has been trapped in the Dark Domain. I needn't explain the dangers involved. I hope we can focus on ensuring everyone's safety and resolving the Dark Domain issue as quickly as possible, rather than engaging in meaningless accusations or infighting. What do you all think?"
As Principal Ke said this, his eyes were fixed on the person in charge of the Wang family in Haicheng.
The teachers sitting on both sides of the long table echoed the sentiment. The old man of the Ming family sat on one side of the table with his assistant, with his eyes closed, resting, a string of small-leaf red sandalwood Buddhist beads in his hand, without saying a word.
"As the school principal, I feel that I have an obligation to coordinate and manage everyone during this critical moment. Therefore, I think it would be more appropriate for me to organize and lead everyone to resist this crisis. Do you have any objections?"
The teachers looked at each other and shook their heads.
The head of the Wang family snorted coldly, "The school is your territory. If something like the mutant plant riot and the Dark Domain happened on your territory, how can we trust you to lead us? I think it would be better if we were the ones to take charge of the overall management!"
"Things in the dark realm are beyond human control. After all, I am more familiar with this area of the school. I am afraid that if Mr. Wang is in charge, mistakes may easily occur." Principal Ke continued.
"Then can you guarantee that nothing will go wrong when you take charge of the overall management? Or do you want to take advantage of the opportunity of overall management to prioritize your own safety and material needs?" Wang Renfeng, the head of the Wang family, insisted.
Now they are trapped in the school, there are so many people outside, and the supplies in the school are limited. What if Principal Ke and others take control of the supplies and medicines in the school warehouse, what will they do next?
Principal Ke flicked his sleeves and said with a smile, "Mr. Wang's worries are a bit unnecessary. After all, the school's supplies belong to the school, don't they? Besides, we're the only ones who know exactly how much the school has, so it's more reasonable for us to allocate them!"
"Mr. Ming, what do you think?" Principal Ke looked at the old man of the Ming family again.
The Ming family master paused as he twirled his beads and said, "Principal Ke is right. You are of course the most knowledgeable about the school's supplies. I have no objection."
"That's it. I'll arrange for people to gather supplies and medicines near the school. I'll oversee the distribution of the supplies. We'll discuss how to distribute them later."
While the school's top management was still discussing matters related to supplies, the people who worked the hardest were the trial instructor Li Shangxi and others. After seeing the news about Xiao Baifa, my uncle and Master Li immediately gathered the children from several nearby Xiaojia Villages and asked them to go to dormitory building No. 1 first. However, after looking around, they found that two students were missing, one was the yellow-haired boy and the other was the fat boy. The two had no choice but to go look for them, and as a result, they met Li Shangxi.
Li Shangxi knew something was wrong when the mutated banyan tree arrived at the high-rise building. When he led the last team of school security personnel to arrive, the banyan tree had already quieted down. He had no choice but to send people to surround the banyan tree. However, he did not expect that a dark area would be formed with the banyan tree as the core.
Li Shangxi is a direct descendant of the Li family and the younger brother of the clan leader Li Zhen. He also has some understanding of the Dark Domain, especially the last time he passed through the Sucheng Dark Domain. Clan leader Li Zhen forced everyone in the clan to deeply learn the relevant knowledge of the Dark Domain. Therefore, when he found that some people in the crowd were going crazy, the nearby trees were quickly turning yellow and withering, and he saw that his mobile phone could not make any external contacts, his heart sank.
At this time, they happened to meet Master Li and his uncle who came to the banyan tree to look for people. After the three of them discussed it, they basically confirmed their situation and decided to arrange for the people who were fleeing in all directions first.
Fortunately, each security team had a walkie-talkie. Li Shangxi immediately notified the captains of each team to evacuate the crowd first, then control the mutated and crazy contaminated species, and then lead the fleeing crowd into the nearby teaching building.
In order to let more people know how to respond, he quickly ran to the radio station in the teaching building and turned on the announcement:
"Please don't panic. Quickly find the nearest building and hide. We recommend that you disperse in small groups and observe those around you for signs of abnormality. If you notice someone going berserk, please stay away and notify the security team as soon as possible!"
"After hiding, please remember to minimize going out to avoid encountering crazy mutant animals or plants."
"Everyone, please be careful and dispose of or hide any spiritual objects on your body as soon as possible!"
He notified them three times via the radio, and when he was going downstairs he happened to meet Adjutant Xu and others who had heard the radio and rushed over.
Adjutant Xu and Li Shangxi and others had known each other for a long time. When Adjutant Xu went to the Li family to learn about the knowledge related to the revival of spiritual energy, he met Li Shangxi. After the two exchanged information with each other, they did not hesitate and immediately went to find the principal.
While Li Shangxi and others were busy evacuating the crowd, capturing the contaminated species, and resettling the parents, the principal and others were discussing the distribution of supplies in the teachers' meeting room on the top floor.
Wang Renfeng spoke first: "We have no objection to the principal distributing the supplies, but it cannot be divided according to the number of people. Our Wang family wants 40% of the supplies."
Upon hearing this, the old man of the Ming family opened his eyes and said dissatisfiedly, "How many people from your Wang family came here to participate in the test this time? How dare you ask for 40% of the supplies? Don't the other people alive here want to eat?"
Principal Ke also said, "The school doesn't have many supplies to begin with, and there are so many people in the school. Giving 40% to you is probably inappropriate. The most we can give is 10%."
Wang Renfeng's eyes turned. Since he didn't deny the profit-sharing method, there was still room for discussion.
"Ten percent is not enough. Who knows when the dark domain can be eliminated? If it takes one or two days, then there's no problem. But what if it can never be eliminated? We can't contact the outside world and can only survive on the supplies in the school. Ten percent is not enough!" Wang Renfeng did not give in.
"No one knows how long the dark zone will last. How about we divide it according to the number of people?" A teacher sitting in the corner whispered.
"By the number of people? Haha, do you mean by those present here? Or by all the living people in the school?" Wang Renfeng scoffed. "If we count all the living people, how many days will the school have enough supplies to last, Principal Ke?"
Principal Ke nodded. "It's not enough. Even if it's just for the few of you here and the people you brought with you, it won't last long. After all, we don't know when the Dark Domain will be resolved. How about this? Whoever offers the highest price wins?"
"Bang!" The door of the conference room was suddenly knocked open from the outside, and Li Shangxi's voice came from the door.
"I wonder if you have left any supplies for our guard team. You know, the guard team is ensuring the safety of everyone here!"
The principal and others were shocked and looked towards the door hurriedly, only to see Li Shangxi and Adjutant Xu standing there.
