As soon as the words were spoken, there was a slight uproar among the students.
“Were we really wrong?! ”
“What should we do now?… Did we work in vain today?”
“How could this happen! Who planted the flag wrongly?!”
“Lin Zihang, was it you? You said earlier that you were not sure about one place!”
“What are you talking about?! Didn’t you say that you were also unsure?!”
The students started arguing.
Zhang Tianyang walked to his tent with a stern face, entered without saying a word and ignored everyone else.
Tu Dan was also confused, but as a teacher, she had to appease the students’ emotions.
“Everyone, stop arguing! If we find a mistake, we correct it. Blaming each other won’t solve anything!” Tu Dan spoke in a slightly stern tone, “Now, everyone pack up and get ready to rest!”
A student raised their hand and asked, “But teacher, our routing is wrong now, shouldn’t we solve this problem first?”
“What good solution would come out of chattering?” Tu Dan said seriously, “There is no problem with the routing itself, it’s everyone’s carelessness that led to this situation. Just be more careful tomorrow and now go to sleep. No more disputes over this matter!”
They were all fifteen or sixteen-year-old children. They would quiet down as quickly as they would start a ruckus.
Bai Youwei watched the commotion from afar. Seeing them quiet down, she lost interest and lightly curled her lips.
Understandably, the teacher was worried, so he asked Shen MO, “Should we guide them?”
Shen MO shook his head, “There are too many of them.”
Not only were there a large number of them, but they were all adolescent boys and girls. People of this age, lying between children and adults, are individualistic, energetic and yet childish. They are hard to control.
The teacher sighed in sympathy for Tu Dan, “Tu Dan shouldn’t have brought all the students here. What if something happens…how could she get away with it, ah…’
“Actually…” Tan Xiao interrupted, “It seems that only half of the students got the frog gadgets. They were afraid of missing out on the maze bonus gadgets, so they all came in.”
Bai Youwei looked at him with curiosity, “How do you know?”
Tan Xiao replied, “I overheard some students talking when I went over there to use the bathroom. Tu Dan originally divided them into two groups. The first group successfully got the mud, but before the second group could go in, the game disappeared, saying it was to prevent brushing.”
“Pfft!” Bai Youwei laughed, gloating over their misfortune, “No wonder their expressions were so complicated when they came in, this is not fear of scarcity but inequality, haha!”
“These students are rather clever, I suspect Tu Dan won’t be able to control them for long.” Shen MO remarked.
Tu Dan inherently was not a dominating person.
Perhaps when the apocalypse just began, the students sought the help of their teacher out of fear and instinct. But once they got deeply involved in this world, accepted the rules and understanding of the game, they would definitely stop obeying the teacher’s orders.
This wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, and even a necessary part of growth, but of course, there would be pros and cons involved in the process.
Shen MO, who wasn’t concerned with other people’s affairs, brought Bai Youwei into the tent he had set up, retrieved the rabbit she had been charging all afternoon and handed it to her.
“Is it fully charged?” he asked.
Bai Youwei felt around the rabbit and shook her head.
Shen Mo: “How much do you think it’s charged?”
“It’s hard to say…” After a moment, Bai Youwei lazily replied, “In any case, there isn’t much power.”
Shen MO replied, “Continue charging it tomorrow.”
Bai Youwei only responded with a nod.
After a while, she glanced at him, seeming a bit upset, “It seems like you care a lot about this gadget.. What, you think that once I have a gadget in my hand, you won’t need to worry about me anymore?”
