Chapter 27: The troops split into two groups and headed to the cafeteria.



Severe measures are needed in times of chaos.

Only by first killing Liu Luobin with swift and decisive action, making everyone fear him, and then producing the video to prove that he was right, can he gain everyone's respect.

This is the simplest and most effective way to establish authority; often, one demonstration is enough.

Qiao Suinian's gaze swept across the crowd, and no one dared to meet his eyes.

Some people did it out of guilt and shame, while others did it out of fear. At that moment, Qiao Suinian successfully left an indelible mark on everyone's hearts.

Qiao Suinian could have easily killed Liu Luobin without explaining to them, since none of them present were a match for him.

However, Qiao Suinian still chose to let them see the truth, which made many people secretly remember Qiao Suinian.

Qiao Suinian didn't escalate the matter further; he simply picked up his phone and checked the time.

February 13, 2060, 2:24 AM.

Before we knew it, eight hours had passed since the nationwide job change system was launched.

At 2:30 a.m., the sky was pitch black. Qiao Suinian knew very well that in four hours, the second round of awakening would begin.

By then, the alien monsters that appear will be even more terrifying. Now is not the time to rest. I must make Jinghai University an impenetrable fortress within 4 hours.

"Listen up, everyone."

Seeing the tired and sleepy faces of the crowd, Qiao Suinian stood in front of them and spoke loudly.

"Now is not the time to rest. In 4 hours, an even more terrifying monster will appear. We need to split into two groups. One group will go to the dormitory building and try to find enough bedding to bring back to the auditorium. You can feel how cold it is at night."

"The other team, follow me. We're going to the canteen and supermarket to move the supplies over, otherwise everyone will go hungry."

Before Qiao Suinian mentioned it, many people hadn't noticed, but as soon as he did, their stomachs started growling.

After all, since the end of the world, they have been struggling between life and death, so they have no time to worry about food and clothing.

"Han Yueling, you and Jiang Ping take people over to the dormitory building. You can choose how many people you need. It's best to choose awakened job changers, but if that's not possible, strong and muscular boys will also be fine."

"Tian Junyu, you're still the same as always. Take some men and stay here to guard the main hall entrance to prevent any alien monsters from taking advantage of the situation."

"Now, who wants to go to the dormitory building?"

Qiao Suinian made arrangements in an orderly manner, and soon Han Yueling's side had gathered a small team of about two hundred people, most of whom were combat-type awakened individuals.

After seeing that Han Yueling and the others had all gathered, Qiao Suinian also stood at the entrance of the auditorium.

"Alright, now which warriors are ready to come with me to the docks to get some fries? I need two hundred men too."

Qiao Suinian calmly looked at everyone, but compared to the enthusiastic signing up at the dormitory building just now, there were obviously far fewer people willing to go to the cafeteria.

Almost none of the boys in the auditorium dared to meet Qiao Suinian's gaze; they all hung their heads dejectedly, afraid that Qiao Suinian would choose them.

The reason is simple: Jinghai University's auditorium is located at the northernmost part of the campus, while the cafeteria is located at the southernmost part.

To get to the cafeteria, you have to cross several places, including the administration building, teaching building, sports field, and library. Getting to the cafeteria is definitely more dangerous than getting to the dormitory.

Seeing this, Qiao Suinian was not angry, but instead smiled and explained.

"The first round of awakening accounts for one-third, of which combat-type professions account for one-fifth, which means that the awakening probability of combat-type professions is one-fifteenth."

"This also means that among the nearly 10,000 people present here, there are at least 600 awakened combat-type professions."

"So you might think, 'It's better to die than to die,' and that if anyone goes, it will be someone else. I'll have something to eat when the food arrives. But I might as well tell you something."

"Those who awaken in the second round reach level 3 immediately upon awakening, while those in the third round reach level 5 immediately, and the interval between each round of awakening is only 12 hours." (Qian Qianren)

"Similarly, the monsters that appear in the second and third rounds of awakening are also level 3 and 5 respectively. If you, as first-round awakeners, choose to be cowards, then after 24 hours, you will become just like ordinary people, completely powerless against those alien monsters."

"While you have the chance now, while the two or three of you can work together to kill monsters like the Human-Headed Centipede without taking any damage, you'd better cherish every opportunity to improve your strength, otherwise, your death is not far off."

As soon as Qiao Suinian finished speaking, everyone in the auditorium turned pale.

Silence spread like a plague through the crowd. The huge auditorium was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and you could even hear people's hearts pounding with fear.

No one doubted Qiao Suinian's words; they already knew that with Qiao Suinian's strength, there was no need for him to lie to them.

This is why many people are filled with despair. If the alien races that appeared in the first round were so terrifying, how much more terrifying would the monsters in the second and third rounds be?

This rule essentially forces them to fight against other races to become stronger.

“I’ll go with you!” a deep, resonant voice rang out. Everyone recognized the boy as the one who had just thrown the shot put at the zombies.

He was breathing heavily, and his face was flushed red; he had clearly gone through a great deal of internal struggle before deciding to stand up.

Faced with a desperate situation, some choose cowardice, while others choose to die heroically.
