Li Hong Wei looked at the people in his own small circle first.
He had previously seen Xiao Long’s strength, which was far beyond what an ordinary person could achieve.
Correspondingly, he harbored some ambition to become stronger.
Moreover, he had entered the core circle of the teaching building by killing a monster and obtaining white energy, he naturally hoped to advance further and solidify his position.
Wang Zi Jun hesitated, “Brother Wei, isn’t it too dangerous to go outside? Can’t we just wait for rescue here?”
“Yeah, Brother Wei, our building has disappeared. The federation will surely send a search party when they find out. Maybe they can find us…”
The students in the class obviously did not want to go out. Such a task was too dangerous for a student like them. Even trained soldier might not be able to survive without their firearms in the wild.
It was different from the previous fight against the monster.
Before, they had no choice; if they didn’t fight, they might die, and the atmosphere had driven everyone to act. Plus they outnumbered the monsters.
Now, to actively face the monsters, few were willing to sacrifice their life.
Li Hong Wei became anxious as no one willingly to join him. He had volunteer in this mission too.
“Five people, just five from our class…”
He looked pleadingly at Wang Zi Jun and other boys he was close to.
This time, no one dared to meet his eyes directly; all lowered their heads. It’s one thing to have fun, but risking their lives was another matter.
Li Hong Wei became desperate, “I tell you, there are necessary to risk our life now to survive as we are short in food and water. Plus killing a monster give you reward…”
“I killed a monster before, and my strength increased a lot…”
“You all know Xiao Long, right?”
“He killed seven monsters. To demonstrate the strength he gained after killing the monster in the meeting. He smashed the long table into pieces with only one punch just now…”
“What?!”
Most people in the class did not know about this and were shocked to hear it.
Zhao Yu had already made up his to join because he understood that this place was a higher civilization’s testing ground, and their intention was clearly to encourage individuals to hunt monsters and become stronger.
The longer they delayed, the stronger the monsters they would encounter, making it harder to kill them later.
Zhao Yu planned to be the last man to join in the team first to avoid attention. Now. tempted by the prospect of becoming stronger, Zhao Yu stood up as the first volunteer to join Li Hong Wei.
He raised his hand and said, “I’ll go, count me in!!”
Upon seeing it was Zhao Yu, they were all surprised.
“When the fight began, I was late getting there. Everyone were trying to squeeze into the building. I couldn’t get out at all…” Zhao Yu explained.
“By the time I got out, everyone had already finished the business, and I could only help with cleaning up the corpses…”
“With this opportunity to contribute to everyone again, I definitely want to put in my effort…”
These words surprised many of the girls, who thought they might have misjudged Zhao Yu; he seemed like a decent person.
For Zhao Yu, he had been trying to avid battle. With his assumption of more monster are going to attack them. To survive, he has to get strong. This time, he wasn’t going to back down.
The purpose of speaking his mind now was to change everyone’s impression of him.
He needed the group’s strength, so it was better to integrate himself more smoothly into the group.
Li Hong Wei looked at Zhao Yu with admiration and said loudly, “That’s the spirit! Our class needs people like you…”
As if to encourage Zhao Yu for being the first to respond to his call, Li Hong Wei claimed:
“Zhao Yu, don’t worry. You’re with me in the same team this time. If there’s danger, I’ll definitely protect you!”
These words immediately made the people in his small circle feel a sense of crisis.
“Wang Zi Jun, we are eighth-grade citizens. Now a ninth-grade citizen has taken the lead. Do you think that’s appropriate?!” Huo Li Juan glanced at Wang Zi Jun and her accent was peculiar, with a local twist.
“I’ll go too!” Wang Zi Jun immediately said he would join, “We should set an example in such matters!”
Li Hong Wei was overjoyed and laughed, “Old Wang, don’t worry, with our relationship, I’ll protect you too…”
With Zhao Yu and Wang Zi Jun joined, other boys also became interested, and soon three more signed up.
Zhao Yu glanced at them; one of them was from Li Hong Wei’s circle, named Cao Ji Ji.
The other two, close to Li Hong Wei and others on regular days, were named Huang Xian Ming and Hua Jie.
“Alright, we have enough people!”
“You five, take your weapons and follow me. Let’s go downstairs to the assembling point…”
After descending the building and arriving on the entrance, there were already over thirty people gathered together.
The director was also there. Seeing Li Hong Wei and his group come out, he praised them and then had them stand in an area designated for their class.
Li Hongwei realized he couldn’t just stick to his own small circle anymore.
He specifically called Zhao Yu and the other two over and huddled together to discuss the information he had received earlier.
“In our building, there are 72 classes, about three thousand five hundred students, and more than eighty teachers…”
“The director’s idea is for each class to send out six people, adding up to over four hundred people, to be divided into eight teams, each with about fifty people, heading in eight different directions…”
“How many have obtained the white energy?” Zhao Yu nodded slightly and asked.
“18!”
“I’ll lead a team with another guy who got the white energy too.. You guys stick close to me; I’ll definitely protect you…”
