Chapter 908: Chapter 908 Geng Xingshu’s Resolve
"As long as we can survive until then..."
The masked man’s words instilled a sense of foreboding within Geng Xingshu.
His words seemed to be bluntly telling Geng Xingshu that they wouldn’t spend this month safely, only a few might make it to the end, and perhaps none might survive the month.
This means during this process, there will definitely be something threatening their lives.
In this square space enclosed by walls, each of the four directions has a deep passage, and no one knows what’s beyond those passages.
It could be traps that harm lives, it could be deadly Ferocious Beasts, it could be that beyond those exits lies the world-renowned...
In short, anything could appear behind those exits, even the giant robot of his dreams wouldn’t surprise Geng Xingshu.
In such circumstances, it’s very difficult to guess what specifically threatens their lives.
Perhaps someone might die from external threats, perhaps someone might sacrifice due to food shortages, and it’s even possible they might be killed by others!
Here, there are only high walls, without the restraint of laws, and many people’s inner Wild Beast will be unleashed.
For instance, among the dozen people who entered this time, a few have exceptional appearances, and these women might someday become the fuse of conflicts.
In the blink of an eye, Geng Xingshu analyzed many things. If it were the old him, he would have been completely panicked, but after seeing many strange things in the Foundation, Geng Xingshu became calm.
For now, Geng Xingshu thought only about this, as for what to do when those women encounter danger, he would consider later.
Geng Xingshu couldn’t guarantee that when the time came, he would help, collaborate, or stand by and watch to preserve himself.
He kept silently repeating the words he heard when he joined the Foundation.
’This world is far more complicated than what you see, humans are constantly under the threat of different species.’
’In such a world, aside from humans themselves, there’s nothing that can always protect humans.’
’Therefore, the Foundation’s purpose is to ensure the continuity of human civilization, to discover threats, control threats, and contain threats.’
’We will become tireless guards of human civilization, defending with a sturdy shield, slashing foes with a sharp sword, today and every day, until forever.’
Thinking about these, he didn’t want to act rashly but to constantly remind himself what kind of person he should be and not make blind wrong decisions.
"If I can’t handle this situation, what qualifies me to be a tireless guard?"
Geng Xingshu suddenly felt invigorated, standing tall while looking at that screen, his eyes seemingly burning with fiery determination.
Following behind Geng Xingshu was Wen Wen, a man with slightly small eyes.
These people were transported in while unconscious, mouths locked with bicycle locks and thrown to the ground.
Only Wen Wen leisurely chose a spot and lay down himself.
He looked at Geng Xingshu’s gaze and nodded with satisfaction. Regardless of what Geng Xingshu would do later, his current performance qualified him to be a Foundation employee.
At least Wen Wen saw a special glint in his eyes, a look only those who know what they are holding onto can show.
In the space, at least two others showed the same gaze as Geng Xingshu, and they were both Foundation employees.
"Hahaha, seems like you already understand the situation."
The masked man on the screen, Magic Mirror Gidro, laughed maniacally.
"So I’ll continue. I’m kind-hearted and can’t bear to see people starve, so I’ll provide you with food."
"There are five of these safe spaces like yours, and every day I’ll randomly drop five food supply boxes, each portion is enough for at least twenty people for a day, and possibly a portion might last several days... if you can find them."
Five places, five portions of food...
Geng Xingshu immediately realized their activity area wasn’t limited to these five ’safe’ spaces; there must be other ’unsafe’ spaces too.
And they might need to explore unsafe spaces to find food.
"Of course, to add some excitement to this ’survival game’, apart from the food supply box, I’ll also drop a surprise box daily. Remember, surprises are upgraded every day."
Jidro talked dryly, arrogantly placing his foot on the table.
"On the first day, I’ll give you an equipment box with a key to unlock your mouth’s bicycle locks along with some equipment you need to divide among yourselves."
"I’ve said what needed saying, now I’ll just enjoy watching the show!"
After Jidro finished speaking, the giant screen turned black, and everyone looked at each other.
Then, a box with a two-meter diameter dropped suddenly onto the ground, startling everyone with a loud crash.
People gathered, found a stick to pry open the box, and discovered a key, a few medicines, a large iron pot, and around twenty plastic basins, along with three handguns, two bows, one crossbow, and several swords and knives.
Seeing the contents, a burly man swiftly stepped forward and grabbed two handguns, prompting others to rush in and grab what they could.
Geng Xingshu sighed, seized two daggers and that key amidst the chaos, then tossed one dagger and the key to the small-eyed skinny man beside him.
He secretly checked his belongings earlier and found the grip-enhancing exoskeletal gloves he made before sleeping still on him, ensuring his safety.
At Geng Xingshu’s signal, Wen Wen used the key to unlock the bicycle lock on Geng Xingshu’s neck, then Geng Xingshu unlocked Wen Wen’s and handed the lock over for others to unlock themselves.
During the unlocking process, Geng Xingshu observed everyone.
Counting himself, there were thirteen men and six women.
The most noteworthy was the burly man who seized the guns; he too was observing everyone, quite vigilant.
However, among these people, there might be hidden experts, so Geng Xingshu won’t underestimate anyone.
But from the initial scramble scene, Geng Xingshu wasn’t optimistic about this month. He knew collaboration was the best way to survive this month, but he couldn’t unify everyone’s mindset with his own.
