Chapter 87

"What should we do then?"

Jiang Tao looked worried, clearly a girl who wouldn't take the initiative to think of solutions when faced with a crisis.

"Have you checked the warehouse?"

Jiang Shudan asked, "There shouldn't be too many spore people in a place like that, right?"

"I did, there weren't many spore people, but who knows what's in the warehouse?"

Qin De only took a quick look from a distance because the warehouse was behind the supermarket. If he accidentally alerted the spore people inside, he would be trapped like a fish in a jar.

"If we can't get into the supermarket, we'll go to the warehouse to get supplies!"

Huang Liang scratched his slightly bald head, "This big supermarket has everything, from daily necessities to food, especially easy-to-store items like instant noodles, sausages, and canned goods. There must be a lot of them!"

"The supermarket's inventory is planned, not like what you think. Who would stockpile so many instant noodles for no reason!"

Jiang Tao, a college student who had worked as a cashier for a few months, was still quite smart and understood these things: "And the warehouse has several rooms, and it's so big, how will you find food?"

"It's also easy to be surrounded!"

Sun Yuan looked at the map in the notebook. According to Jiang Tao, there were three ways to enter the warehouse area: one was the passage inside the supermarket used for deliveries, another was the passage on the right side of the supermarket for emergency unloading or small goods, and the main deliveries were through another street behind the supermarket.

If the players were surrounded by spore people and couldn't get out through the right passage, they would be forced to go to the other street, where the situation was unknown, and the risk of death was too high.

"Right! Right!"

Jiang Tao nodded quickly, "The warehouse has only two entrances and exits, it's a place where one man can hold off ten thousand."

Jiang Tao glanced at Sun Yuan, realizing how thoughtful this alumnus was.

"Why don't we check out the smaller supermarkets?"

Zhang Qiuman suggested, trying to show her wisdom.

"That's a good idea!"

Lin Jianrong's eyes lit up. Because of the presence of Ancient City University, there were many restaurants, convenience stores, and small shops on this street, even a bath center.

"Qin De, what do you think?"

Sun Yuan asked.

Qin De felt invigorated, this was a test from the team leader.

I must answer well!

Qin De treated this question like a job interview, using all his brainpower.

"I think the more places we go, the more dangerous it is, but under the current situation where we can't take over the Yonghui Supermarket, this is our only choice!"

Qin De frowned, thinking this plan wasn't great, but suddenly had an idea: "Why don't we raid the residential area?"

On the east side of Ancient City University was a residential area where university professors and teachers lived for convenience.

"That's a good idea, each household must have rice, flour, and oil. If we can handle four or five households, we can eat for a month."

Lin Jianrong was excited.

After Qin De finished speaking, he looked at Sun Yuan eagerly, like a dog waiting for praise.

"The residential area is a good idea, but have you thought about what to do after a month?"

Sun Yuan countered.

"This..."

Qin De hadn't thought about it.

Jiang Shudan and Huang Liang looked serious, clearly thinking about the key issue, while others didn't understand Sun Yuan's point. Wasn't the priority to survive?

This was the difference in mindset and insight.

"You've all played MMORPGs, right? When players start, if they have a bad start, they fall behind the first tier and get left further and further behind."

Sun Yuan looked at the students and teachers, "Now, we are in a survival game. When you survive a month and celebrate, have you thought about how some skilled players have used this month to far surpass you?"

"Right, the wild prophet who ranks first on the personal achievement list and fifth on the popularity list, if this player doesn't die, we won't even see his dust."

Qin De felt angry thinking about someone being so strong.

Why not me?

When he completed the game, he had fantasized about making it to the achievement list, even agonizing over a cool and fancy nickname. But Silver Horse told him his performance was too poor to make the top 100.

Only the top 100 were ranked.

Everyone was silent.

"So, everyone, think long-term. This situation is both a crisis and an opportunity. If you handle it well, you can become top-notch."

Sun Yuan's tone was sincere, his expression serious.

He said this to encourage the students and teachers, and also to inspire them to bravely execute his plan, so they wouldn't feel like cannon fodder when they died.

The female college students looked at Sun Yuan with admiration, finding him very charming in his demeanor and tone.

They liked it.

"This kid has good charisma!"

Huang Liang, a seasoned social veteran, had heard this kind of motivational talk many times. It was just a way to energize young people and make them work hard.

Jiang Shudan wondered if he was a cunning and ambitious person.

He was good at manipulating people!

And she felt Sun Yuan must have a plan, speaking so much to increase team cohesion, reduce fear, and establish authority to make everyone follow his orders.

"I'll explain my plan. Warehouse No. 1 is in the shade, so it should store items that need to be kept out of sunlight, like beer, flower water, and shampoo. Qin De, Jiang Shudan, and Lin Feng, you will go to Warehouse No. 1 and break these items, especially flammable and explosive ones, to make them easy to burn."

Sun Yuan then looked at Huang Liang, "Teacher Huang, can you drive?"

"I can!"

Huang Liang nodded.

"Your task is to find a car, preferably a large one, and block the door after I lead all the spore people into the warehouse. Can you do it?"

"This..."

Huang Liang hesitated, feeling the task was difficult and the pressure was immense.

"The most dangerous moment will be when you close the warehouse door. I'll arrange two boys to assist you and try to draw the spore people's attention."

Sun Yuan reassured him, indicating he shouldn't be afraid.

Honestly, Sun Yuan wanted to call Zhen Yu and Xu Qingshan, as having reliable teammates would greatly reduce the difficulty of the plan.

But waiting for them would waste time, and Sun Yuan couldn't refuse them if they wanted to join, so he decided to do it himself.

"I... I can!"

Huang Liang clenched his fists.

Sun Yuan then repeated his plan twice and had Qin De, Jiang Shudan, and Huang Liang repeat it to ensure it became muscle memory and wouldn't be forgotten.

"After I act, you must act immediately, understand?"

Sun Yuan's tone became stern, "Even if the plan fails, I won't die in this small situation. When I return, I'll make the person who hesitates and ruins everyone's efforts wish they were dead!"

Everyone was intimidated.

"Team leader, you've taken the hardest task. What more can we say?"

Qin De thought Sun Yuan was great.

If he were the team leader, he would definitely send cannon fodder to draw the monsters.

Sun Yuan wanted to, but even Qin De couldn't complete the task with 300 spore people chasing him, so he had to do it himself.

And the key was, doing the hardest job would earn the most points.

Others also felt Sun Yuan was contributing the most, so they had no complaints.

After all, Sun Yuan's plan sounded highly feasible, and if successful, they would have the entire supermarket's resources to enjoy.

"Action!"

Sun Yuan climbed over the wall, crossed the road, and, to avoid Jiang Tao and the other ordinary students attracting the monsters, he used the Thunder Slash to kill nearby monsters.

The group arrived at the parking lot.

The car was quickly found.

It was a Land Rover.

The door was wide open, with a full shopping bag inside, and the keys were still in the ignition, indicating the owner had fled in a hurry.

After letting everyone rest and recover, Sun Yuan, using the cover of the vehicles, went to the passage on the right side of the supermarket and fired several arrows with the Eagle Strike Bow.

The goal was to make noise, not necessarily to hit anything.

Sure enough, the spore people were alerted and saw Sun Yuan standing on the roof of a BMW, immediately running towards him.

Sun Yuan turned and rushed into the supermarket, not forgetting to eat a Speed Mushroom.

This was his last resort. If he couldn't fight, the mushroom would ensure his safe escape.

"Action, quickly! Quickly!"

Qin De, seeing the monsters in the passage gone, immediately ran to Warehouse No. 1.

Jiang Shudan followed closely, urging others, "Hurry, the longer we delay, the more dangerous it is for Sun Yuan."

In Warehouse No. 1, there were six monsters, four of whom were supermarket employees, and the other two were loaders.

Fortunately, only two monsters were together, the others were scattered.

Qin De breathed a sigh of relief, feeling he could handle this.

"There's a monster!"

Jiang Tao saw a spore person at the entrance of Warehouse No. 3, who heard the noise and came out, immediately rushing towards them.

"You ignore it, find the flower water and beer, I'll deal with the monster!"

Qin De growled, speeding up to take out the monsters before they could gather.

Qin De, who had led a team in the Primitive Mushroom Forest, had some leadership skills.

And after experiencing the God's Tower game, his nerves were tough, not easily discouraged by minor setbacks.

Seeing Qin De's reliability, the others also relaxed and started searching.

"I see the beer!"

A girl spotted the Snowflake beer stacked together, excitedly called out, and started pulling the tabs.

Fizz!

The beer foam spurted out.

"You're doing this too slowly! Smash them on the ground!"

Jiang Tao used brute force to knock over the stacked cans.

Clatter!

Some broke, spewing light yellow liquid, but others remained intact.

"Find the glass bottles, they break easily!"

Qin De glanced, almost angry, "Use your brain! This isn't a civilized time. The more destructive, the better!"

Sun Yuan rushed into the Yonghui Supermarket and saw a large group of wandering spore people, especially in the vegetable section, which was crowded, while the meat section had fewer people.

It made sense; with pork prices rising, fewer people were buying it.

The fruit section was also crowded, especially the premium fruit section, where young women and female college students were picking, enjoying a quality life.

The area selling eggs, rice, flour, and oil had elderly people queuing, as there was a discount today.

Sun Yuan immediately ran over.

The strength of spore people depended on their physical condition. Spore people transformed from elderly people were weaker, and Sun Yuan's plan was to have them follow him, using their slow speed to block the faster, stronger young spore people.

A few spore people blocked his path, rushing towards him.

Sun Yuan didn't flinch, pulling out the Burst Bat from his backpack and smashing it into the spore person's head.

Left knife, right bat, dual-wielding god,
