At the beginning, I traveled through the wilderness, and I controlled the beasts to survive.

afternoon.

A small open-air square between dormitories.

Dean Wu stood on the stage and was distributing supplies.

"During this expedition, we collected a total of about 10 tons and a total of 400 boxes of various supplies, including 100 boxes of canned meat, 50 boxes of multi-flavor self-heating lunch boxes, 20 boxes of sugar, and 10 boxes of chocolate..."

The large amount of supplies seized in the morning could almost meet the food and drink needs of the remaining more than 300 survivors for at least a month.

In a short period of time, everyone no longer has to take risks and go to the Ninth Canteen to find food.

As an explorer and discoverer, Han Ning received more supplies than others, and also received an additional rifle, a pistol and thousands of rounds of ammunition.

They collected a total of 17 rifles, 5 pistols and a dozen sporadic grenades from the train.

Even in the current environment, firearms are still controlled items and must be assembled by those who often go out to explore and contribute the most.

Since there were quite a lot of supplies, the distribution took almost an afternoon and was about to end.

"Xiuning, Han Ning, Zhiran... come here."

After the distribution session, Dean Wu called on more than a dozen teachers and students who lived nearby to help.

Han Ning scanned the circle and found that the people Dean Wu had chosen often went out to explore and were considered to be the most powerful group of people in the academy.

Their anemone trees have all experienced at least two mutations, which is equivalent to Yin Yi's second enhancement.

The group of people came to the temporary conference room opened out of the dormitory in Building A.

Nowadays, the power reserve is relatively abundant, and bright lights are rarely lit in the conference room, dispelling the oppressive darkness.

"I called you here today because I want to talk to you about the future."

Dean Wu looked at the people sitting on the chairs and spoke slowly,

"Now, we have seized a batch of supplies that are enough for everyone to live for more than a month, as well as a dozen rifles. A total of 263 people's anemone trees have mutated and have certain combat capabilities..."

"The spirit beasts wandering within a 300-meter radius of the dormitory area no longer pose much of a threat to us. It's time to start thinking about future life issues."

"I currently have two plans." Dean Wu held out two fingers.

"The first plan, currently, we are still in a vague and unknown state about the environment around the dormitory building. The ubiquitous white fog also affects our daily life. I am wondering whether we should try to provide more information. Wouldn’t it be better to explore distant areas and find a relatively safe place to live out of this poisonous area?”

People who stay in dimly lit places for a long time will inevitably become depressed.

"The second plan is to gradually eliminate the soul beasts in the college. With the dormitory building as the center, the college area will be built into a relatively safe area. It will be developed slowly and then be explored outside when the time is right."

As Dean Wu spoke, he scanned everyone's faces and said, "Which plan do you think is better?"

“Can’t we do both at the same time?” someone asked.

Dean Wu shook his head: "We don't have enough manpower. Doing it at the same time will stretch the timeline very long and make accidents more likely to happen. It's best to have a focus."

Teacher Liu Yueming raised his hand slightly:

"Dean, I think it's better to develop slowly first. Have you forgotten those huge monsters that killed other teachers and students when you just traveled through time? The giant python in the ninth cafeteria is just one of them. I remember there was also a very big one. The magic eye frog never appeared."

After Teacher Liu finished speaking, another student raised his hand:

"I think it's good to send a group of people out to explore. What if the safe place is only a kilometer or two away from us and we don't know about it? Isn't it dark under the light?"

"We also have drones. If you are worried about danger, you can first send the drone to fly a certain distance to take pictures. After confirming that there is no danger in a certain area, then walk forward for a while and continue to explore with the drone, and so on... …”

Dean Wu nodded, then looked at Han Ning expectantly, and said with a smile: "Han Ning, you are currently the strongest among us. What do you think?"

"Well... I think Teacher Liu's suggestion is better. It's too dangerous outside. There are few of us and we can't stand the torment. It's better to get stronger first and then go out to explore when we have a certain strength."

Han Ning thought of the bloodthirsty rats, the dizzy worms and the giant magic eye frog, and the giant python that was thicker than the two people put together. As long as the exploration team encountered any of them, it would be a trivial matter to reduce the number of people. , the greatest possibility is that the entire army will be annihilated.

Wait, wait for Yin Yi to evolve, wait for most people's anemone trees to mutate a few more times, wait for him to figure out how to use his mental power, and it won't be too late to explore again.

His Silver Ripple is only one step away from evolution.

Dean Wu pondered for a few seconds and said: "It seems that everyone's ideas are not consistent, so let's... we will discuss it for two more days, and then I will ask other students and teachers, and try to get everyone's thoughts and opinions."

The others heard this and nodded without any objection.

Teacher Liu thought of something and suddenly said: "By the way, Dean Wu, how do you arrange for those five Shan women?"

"They are all poor people. Let them live here first and help everyone clean and cook."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Before Dean Wu could reply, a male student with a panic expression pushed open the door and entered.

The male classmate didn't care whether he behaved politely or not, and said urgently: "Dean Wu, there is a team that has not returned yet. I am worried that something will happen to them."

"What time did they set off in the morning?" Dean Wu frowned slightly.

"We set off around 8 o'clock in the morning. It's now past 5 o'clock in the afternoon and we haven't come back yet. Don't you stipulate that you must return to the dormitory before 5 o'clock in the afternoon? Generally, the team will return half an hour in advance, and they will come back to rest at noon. They Didn’t come back either.”

Dean Wu already realized that something was wrong and stood up: "Who is going out? Which direction is it going?"

"Zhao Wei, Zheng Zhibin, Chen Ningchuan...these three are walking east, towards the mechanical engineering teaching building."

"It's getting dark now..." Dean Wu looked at the sky outside the window and hesitated.

The wilderness at night is not at the same level of danger as during the day.

In the dark, more hunters will go out to look for food.

Dean Wu didn't hesitate for too long: "It's not good to send too many people out at night. Let's do this. Send out 20 people, bring thermal weapons, drones and flashlights, and enough batteries to look for them in the direction they left. , if you encounter danger, return in time. "

"Then...leave it to us!"

A few of the dozen or so strongest people sitting in the dormitory immediately stood up.

Someone stood up, and the others stood up without hesitation.

Han Ning thought for a while, and for everyone's safety, he also stood up.
