Chapter 263 Announcement: Players' Excitement

Hearing the notification sound, Su Ze realized that a night had passed.

Su Ze leaned back on the large sofa, opened the virtual panel, and switched directly to the Jinghai University Public Channel.

Inside Dormitory 404 at this moment, the women were each digesting the free attribute points they had just been allocated, and an undisguisable sense of excitement filled the air.

Su Ze's fingers tapped rapidly on the semi-transparent screen.

[ 4th Floor - 404 - Su Ze (Room Owner): Starting today, during the midnight period (12:00 AM to 6:00 AM the next day) when monsters are active, each Dormitory only needs to arrange for two people to take turns keeping watch, while the rest can rest normally. ]

[ Supernatural Entities wandering outside will be handled by the Leaders of each floor leading the teams themselves; unless an emergency occurs, ordinary players do not need to respond or fight. ]

As soon as these two messages were sent out, the previously relatively quiet Public Channel exploded.

[ 7th Floor - 102 - Zhang Daqiang (landlord): Holy crap! Boss is mighty! Finally, I can sleep soundly! ]

[ 4th Floor - 511 - Chen Li (tenant): Wuwuwu, thank you Boss Su Ze! In the past, I was always afraid that monsters would rush in at midnight and didn't dare to close my eyes all night. Now our Dormitory has upgraded, and there are eight people taking shifts; compared to before, it's not tiring at all! ]

[ 2nd Floor - 205 - Liu Bo (landlord): The Leaders are personally at the front; this sense of security is maxed out! Long live Boss Su Ze! ]

[ 4th Floor - 408 - Wang Jianguo (tenant): This is what a life for humans should be like! Boss's arrangement is absolutely perfect! ]

Watching the praises scrolling frantically on the screen, the corners of Su Ze's mouth curled up slightly.

A slap followed by a sweet treat—this was just an appetizer.

He continued typing on the keyboard.

[ 4th Floor - 404 - Su Ze (Room Owner): For the next three days, the originally scheduled daily morning collective cleanup operation for dormant campus monsters is cancelled. ]

The speed of the screen scrolling in the channel slowed down slightly; clearly, the players were all confused by this sudden change.

Su Ze didn't give them time to guess blindly, and the next message followed closely behind.

[ 4th Floor - 404 - Su Ze (Room Owner): The morning operation is changed to collective simulation training. Location: Third Floor Simulation Training Ground. ]

[ 4th Floor - 404 - Su Ze (Room Owner): During these three days, all basic food and fresh water for the training participants will be fully covered by the force. Those who perform brilliantly during training will be determined by the Leaders of each floor to receive additional material rewards. ]

Once this announcement was posted, the level of excitement in the entire channel instantly doubled.

Food and drink provided?

Go to the Simulation Training Ground for training?

[ 4th Floor - 212 - Li Xue (tenant): Simulation Training Ground!! I heard that if you get hurt inside, you won't actually die! In the past, when going out to clear monsters, my hands would shake so much that I couldn't even hold a knife steady; now I finally have time to adapt! ]

[ 3rd Floor - 315 - Zhao Gang (tenant): Boss Su is mighty! Not having to risk my life with real weapons and still getting free food and drink for three days—where else can you find such benefits? I must master those two skills within these three days! ]

[ 5th Floor - 502 - Zhou Ming (landlord): I'm going to live in the Simulation Training Ground for these three days! No one stop me! ]

The players' excitement was beyond words.

In this apocalyptic survival world, what one fears most is not having the opportunity to learn by trial and error.

One mistake could cost you your life.

Now, Su Ze had directly given them a three-day "get-out-of-jail-free card" to familiarize themselves with combat, and he was even providing food—this was practically manna from heaven.

Jiang Yuwan stood by the sofa, pushing up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"First provide enough sense of security, then provide enough benefits." She watched Su Ze's operations and commented softly, "Following the standard pattern, it's time to apply some pressure next."

Su Ze turned his head to look at her, his fingers hovering over the virtual keyboard.

"Of course, benefits alone won't suffice. People will become useless if they are too comfortable; I have to add some pressure."

After saying that, he continued to post,

[ 4th Floor - 404 - Su Ze (Room Owner): Don't get too happy too soon. After three days, the original mode will be restored. These three days are just an opportunity for you to familiarize yourselves with monsters and improve your strength. ]

[ 4th Floor - 404 - Su Ze (Room Owner): On the morning after the three days, there will be a full-member simulation performance test, and the rankings will be announced publicly by floor! ]

[ 4th Floor - 404 - Su Ze (Room Owner): Those at the top of the rankings will receive rewards including, but not limited to: high-quality weapons, precious supplies, special items, and... free attribute points. ]

As soon as the five words "free attribute points" appeared in the channel, the entire chat box seemed to have been pressed with a pause button, and a strange half-second pause occurred.

Immediately after, messages erupted like a volcanic explosion.

[ 6th Floor - 931 - Chu Fei (tenant): free attribute points?! Boss is even taking this stuff out as a reward?! ]

[ 3rd Floor - 805 - Sun Qiang (landlord): Brothers, we are the soldiers under Brother Meng; our training is usually the toughest. We're going to sweep up the top rewards on the Third Floor! No one even think about snatching them! ]

[ 8th Floor - 506 - Zhao Tiezhu (tenant): Bullshit! We brothers on the 8th Floor aren't pushovers either! Who doesn't want attribute points? We'll see who's better in three days! ]

[ 2nd Floor - 349 - Lin Tao (tenant): I'm going all out! I'm going to work you guys to death these next three days! ]

Watching the gunpowdery atmosphere instantly ignite in the channel, Su Ze leaned back against the sofa comfortably.

This was exactly the effect he wanted.

Providing enough pressure and enough temptation, these people would naturally go crazy trying to improve themselves.

Speaking of which, Su Ze didn't stop.

The emotional buildup was in place, and it was time to throw out tonight's trump card.

[ Global Announcement: Three days from now, the previous situation where supplies were monopolized will be revoked, and access to search for campus supplies will be opened. ]

[ During the free activity period every afternoon, the supplies found will belong to the individual or the small team formed voluntarily. ]

[ At that time, we will fully implement the 'Merit System'. Killing Supernatural Entities, making contributions, and handing over precious supplies can all be exchanged for merit points. Merit points can be exchanged for various high-level rewards. ]

[ More importantly, merit points will serve as a hard indicator for the selection of future force management. As long as the merit points meet the standard, anyone can sign up for the management assessment of each floor, or even... challenge the Leader and take their place! ]

[ Detailed rules will be announced in three days. ]

As soon as these messages were posted, the players of the entire Jinghai University force went completely crazy.

If the previous benefits and rewards only made them excited, this last combination of moves directly ignited the deepest ambition and desire within everyone.

The right to search for supplies!

A channel for advancement!

In the past, they risked their lives to clear monsters, and in the afternoon, they still had to spend money to trade for basic survival supplies; life was tight, and one slight mistake meant going hungry.

Now, not only could they keep the supplies they found, but they could also exchange them for merit points.

Even if one was just a low-level ordinary player, as long as they were willing to work hard and save enough merit points, they would have the opportunity to climb up, or even challenge those high-and-mighty Leaders!

[ 2nd Floor - 208 - Wang Chui (tenant): Challenge the Leader... as long as you have the strength, anyone can be the boss? But it's a bit difficult... I'm in! Being a small team Leader would be good enough. ]

[ 3rd Floor - 312 - Chen Xiaofei (tenant): I always felt that living had no point before, but now it's different! Brothers, anyone want to team up to find supplies? Booking in advance! ]

Watching the players in the channel fall into a state of frenzy, Su Ze closed the virtual panel.

He picked up the water glass on the coffee table and took a slow, leisurely sip.

"Now, the players of the entire school are even more willingly tied to your war chariot." Jiang Yuwan closed the notebook in her hand, her tone filled with a hint of a smile.

"Essentially, people all live for themselves."

Su Ze put down the water glass and his gaze swept over the women in the room.

"They want to live better, they want to climb higher, so I give them this opportunity. As long as they fight, scramble, and risk their lives, the strength of the entire force will grow bigger and bigger like a snowball."
