News of the failure of Game 21 quickly spread throughout the entire base, causing quite a stir.
Afterwards, Chu Huaijin once again posted a recruitment notice, recruiting 10 people to challenge Game 21 again, but no one showed interest.
Just like what Bai Youwei predicted, after so many elite players lost their lives in the “hide and seek” game, people wanted to keep their distance from Game 21.
Even when Professor Song put out eight puzzle pieces as a reward, and even when Bai Youwei’s announcement still had two items waiting to be traded, nobody was willing to go.
Chu Huaijin had given up hope on this and began preparing for the migration of the base.
Through his own set of calculations, Professor Song had determined the location for the new base. It was a long way off. Who knows how many days it would take to get there, or how many casualties there would be along the way.
Bai Youwei had initially taken delight in Shen Mo’s inability to rally the troops, but as time went by and he still couldn’t find enough people, she started to get angry.
She thought: How could the people in this base be so shortsighted?
She was in a foul mood, and in her house, she cursed everyone in the base, as if those not willing to join the game with Shen Mo were all cowardly and incompetent!
Teacher Chang, Tan Xiao, and Pan Xiaoxin listened in silence, not daring to chime in.
“A bunch of imbeciles! Do they think that following the organization to a new place will keep them safe?!
The more they fear death, the sooner they’ll die! When the time comes for the organization to establish a new order, people will be shuffled around again, and they won’t have the ability to protect others! It’ll be good enough if they can keep that old man named Song safe!
This pile of junk has the nerve to call itself a ‘base’? I think we should stop calling it a ‘base’! ‘Refugee Gathering Squad’ is more fitting! Or even ‘Home for Losers’! It sums up the character of these cowards!”
Bai Youwei turned to Chang Weicai, Tan Xiao, and Pan Xiaoxin, and asked, “Am I right or not?!”
The three of them all nodded in agreement: “Right, right, right…”
“It’s so infuriating!” She slapped the sofa cushion angrily, “We stooped so low to help them through the game, and they don’t appreciate the opportunity! They’ll regret it in the future!”
Tan Xiao also chimed in: “Yeah, even our Boss personally stepped in, and they’re all too blind to recognize it!”
Bai Youwei glared at him, “Shen Mo is not ‘it’!”
Tan Xiao hesitated: “Then…they don’t recognize people?”
“Who’s no longer a person?!” Bai Youwei’s annoyance intensified, “Shut up! You’re making no sense!”
Tan Xiao silently rubbed his nose.
Teacher Chang attempted to soothe the situation: “There are still two days left. After all, this is a matter of life and death, so people are bound to hesitate. Maybe by tomorrow, we will have the people we need.”
Bai Youwei scowled.
Teacher Chang’s words did make a certain amount of sense. People always agonized a bit more when it came to life-and-death decisions.
But what if…
What if by the seventh day, no one still wants to go? What then?
They surely couldn’t bring along all of Shen Mo’s relatives, could they? They were heading northward to collect jigsaw pieces, not to go on a vacation!
The more people they brought along, the heavier the responsibility on their shoulders. Because their lives weren’t only their own, they also had to protect the safety of so many others!
…Of course, they could be a bit tougher and not care about what happens to the others.
But if they didn’t care about the others, then why bother bringing them along?
As Bai Youwei thought about these things, she got a terrible headache and rubbed her temples with her eyes closed.
Footsteps echoed from outside the door. She heard Shen Mo talking and looked up to see him leading a few people into the house
He introduced them, saying: “Since everyone has decided to go into the game together, I think it’s necessary to get to know each other and make preparations in advance.”
