Survival in the dormitory, I was pulled into the management group

Capricorn glanced around and chuckled, "You do have quite a few people on your side, but the point is, it's not about who has the most people who gets to call the shots."

"In terms of numbers, we outnumber you. In terms of individual strength, I'm not afraid of you either. Hand over the goods while I still have patience. You'll regret it once I run out of patience," the Templar Knight continued to threaten.

"The problem is, do you dare to make a move? Think about it, with so many players like us, if we start fighting here, how much turmoil will it cause, how many people will die? I've never been one to risk my life, so I wouldn't mind taking you all down with me."

Capricorns act as if they are fearless and confident.

The Templar Knight frowned.

The other players nearby were cursing and swearing, and they were also secretly discussing it in their small group.

[Brothers, what do we do?]

[This guy is definitely bluffing! I don't believe he's really not afraid of dying!]

[If you ask me, we should just finish this quickly and focus our fire on him to kill him. Once we kill him, the rest will naturally surrender.]

[Don't act rashly! The scary thing isn't this Capricorn person, it's the game itself! If someone dies, it could trigger strange events. Many of us have excessive spiritual insight and can't afford this risk!]

[Yes...that's the tricky part. We're held back, unable to unleash a massacre.]

[But we can't let so many people be held hostage by this small group, can we?]

-

On the surface, the Templar Knight said, "You just want to make a fortune, right? Fine, I'll let you make your money this once. It's no big deal. We players will pool our money to buy the materials you have. Name your price. Make a decision quickly; many people are waiting for the potion to save their lives."

“Hehe, what we’re doing is a long-term business, not a one-off deal. We want to take over this warehouse and control the future sales of the insensitivity potion,” Capricorn laughed.

"Don't push your luck! If you really push us too far, we'll fight to the death. You're not the only one who's not afraid to die!"

"Alright, go ahead and do it. Or let me kill a few people first to liven things up. Look over there, there's something good there."

Capricorn pointed in a direction.

With so many people present, some of them turned their attention to that direction.

Then a bus slowly drove up and stopped nearby.

The driver was a player, and the seats behind him were filled with NPC passengers, all of whom were asleep.

A whole busload of people!

If all these people are killed, it will inevitably trigger strange events, and all the players present will be implicated.

This bus full of people is like a bombshell!

Capricorn came prepared; this carload of people was his bargaining chip.

Now it's a contest of who's more ruthless and who's less afraid of death.

“There’s a bomb in the car. My accomplice can send these people to their deaths with the flick of a finger. You can imagine what will happen next,” Capricorn said frantically.

"Does it have to be this way? I think my proposal is already quite good. You can make a profit, and everyone can barely accept it. If you go too far, you won't have a good ending either," the Templar Knight said in a deep voice.

“We are in a game, and for a game to be fun, you have to use your brain and come up with some crazy ideas. That’s how I got here. Only by dancing on a tightrope can I feel a real sense of being alive.”

"..."

The Templar Knight finally understood what kind of person Capricorn was.

At this point, it's inevitable that one side will have to make concessions.

Although the Templars outnumbered and outgunned, they couldn't afford to gamble.

So they opted for a roundabout solution.

Make concessions first, let the Capricorns get what they want, take over the warehouse, and make the potion of dullness.

We'll spend more money to buy more so that everyone can get back to a safe level.

Once I lower that damned spiritual vision value, I won't have to be so timid anymore.

We'll consider a head-on confrontation then, and get back what we lost, including interest.

The Templars explained their ideas to only a few of their associates before reaching a consensus.

Dozens of people moved aside to the left and right.

The road leading to the warehouse appeared before Capricorn's eyes.

"Haha, isn't that quite sensible?"

Capricorn, beaming with pride, led his men toward the warehouse.

The people on both sides looked at him, their teeth itching with hatred.

The game has now officially split into two major factions.

Of course, some players chose to remain neutral and did not participate.

The Templars secretly sent a message, instructing Chen Bei to act as an "insider" and stay by Capricorn's side.

Chen Bei didn't mind being two-faced, so he accepted the Templar Knight's request.

The group entered the warehouse.

The other ingredients were already prepared; all that was left was to cook the glowing glands.

Capricorn took out the glowing gland and handed it to Dr. Qin.

Dr. Qin immediately began working on the desensitizing potion, busily working in his laboratory, fiddling with various bottles and jars.

Now all we have to do is wait.

Capricorn made arrangements for everyone to take turns standing guard and keeping watch to ensure the situation inside and outside the warehouse.

The warehouse was also temporarily reinforced, with more surveillance measures and some traps and mechanisms installed.

Chen Bei was just going through the motions the whole time, not really paying attention to it, and too lazy to even pretend.

Capricorns are insatiable; they're plotting how to price their products, how to limit purchases, and how to keep rival players hanging on.

“We definitely can’t feed them too much. We need to keep their spiritual vision level hovering on the edge of life and death. That way, they won’t dare to do anything reckless.” Capricorn sat in a chair, crossed his legs, and put both legs on the table, holding a bottle of ice-cold beer in his hand.

Another player said, "There's another big problem: we need to control the supply. Whether we sell a lot or a little, the prerequisite is that we have stock. What should we do after this first batch of dullness potions sells out? If we run out of stock, those people will ignore us."

"We'll ask Dr. Qin later; he definitely knows something. If the Violet Crocodile isn't just one, but part of a group, then we can continuously obtain its glowing glands to make potions. As for the other materials, they won't be difficult to obtain."

"All right……"

These people have settled down here.

After finishing all the miscellaneous tasks.

They were doing nothing; some were drinking and chatting, while a couple was having sex in a corner.

Capricorn himself went to the laboratory entrance and chatted with Dr. Qin, who was busy at work.

After he left, he called Chen Bei aside.

"Heh, I knew you had something up your sleeve. Dr. Qin said that the Violet Crocodile has more than three bioluminescent glands! You have bioluminescent glands on you too!" Capricorn sneered.

"The violet crocodile I killed was small, with only three glowing glands. Believe it or not." Chen Bei said expressionlessly.

Capricorn stared at Chen Bei for a few seconds, then nodded: "Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now, I won't hold it against you. I have another important task for you to handle next."
