Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

In the misty forest, the melodious chirping of birds heralds the arrival of a new day.

People gradually emerged from the dormitory gates, greeted acquaintances they encountered, and then plunged into the wilderness with their equipment and provisions.

At the free market, the student council's shops did not open early as usual, but instead put up signs saying they were temporarily closed.

Captain Zheng of the security team didn't raise his loud voice, and for the first time ever, he shaved his beard clean, changed out of his greasy camouflage uniform, and put on a black suit.

The exploration team and patrol team did not carry out their missions as usual, but simply followed behind Zheng Jiming, silently walking towards the shore of Xingyue Lake.

A solemn and quiet atmosphere permeated the air, and even those students who were out and about, unaware of what had happened, treaded lightly.

Some people, emboldened, followed the crowd all the way to the shore of Xingyue Lake.

On the flat, sandy ground, on a wooden cremation platform, a frail body lay quietly.

The crematorium was surrounded by white flowers, their petals still glistening with dew.

These were picked by Xiao Yun.

According to the preview information, this flower is called "Guimian" and has a calming effect when dried and brewed into tea.

Legend has it that in the First Age, when a person of great importance died, the gods would pave a path with the "Sleep Flower" to guide his soul to the divine realm...

"Does this world... truly have a divine realm?"

Xiao Yun's eyes flickered. He didn't believe in gods, but if possible, he hoped the legend was true.

In front of the crematorium, many people walked by in silence, bending down to put down some small offerings.

In the silence, Xiao Yun suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.

"Old Ji..."

"what?"

Do you have any cigarettes?

Ji Mingyu paused for a moment, sighed, and took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to him.

Xiao Yun pulled out a cigarette, and just as he put it to his lips, a flame ignited in front of him.

"Brother Yun...don't be too sad."

Wang Tianyuan's expression was complicated, with a hint of guilt flickering in his eyes.

"Haha, actually I'm fine."

Xiao Yun smiled and took a deep drag on his cigarette.

"At least you're alive, and we're all alive, aren't we?"

After he finished speaking, he coughed violently, his eyes were red and glistening with tears.

"Damn, this stuff is really pungent!"

Xiao Yun laughed and cursed, threw down his cigarette, and walked to the side of the crematorium.

"It's getting late..."

He drew his mithril sword, and with a whoosh, blazing flames leaped up from the blade.

"Go, Yuhang, I'll see you off one last time."

call--

With a swing of the longsword, the crematorium was ignited, and flames shot into the sky.

Perhaps the wood was a bit damp, because the smoke was even thicker, and the eyes of the group of grown men standing nearby turned red from the smoke.

crackling-

Flames roared, and the scorching wind whipped the burning Sleeping Flowers into the sky, stretching all the way into the void.

Just like in legends, the gods guide lost souls back home...

After the flames died down and Xiao Yun and the others collected the ashes, the simple funeral came to an end.

Zheng Jiming changed back into his camouflage uniform and, together with the exploration team and patrol team, set off towards dormitory building number four with Chen Liming, Qin Zhou, and others.

Although the place has been abandoned by the Radiant Order, the many buildings and resources left behind are worth recovering.

Moreover, Xiao Yun and the others did not actually slaughter everyone inside; those unfortunate students who had been enslaved remained there, waiting to be resettled.

These were originally Qi Xiaoran's tasks, but that guy showed up at the funeral, said sorry, left an envelope, and then left.

Inside the envelope was a set of keys and a short note:

"I left, or rather, I ran away."

"I'm a coward, a puppet, ever since I blindly followed that guy's orders to kill the dorm supervisor in order to gain control of the dormitory building."

But must a new order be built on the slaughter of the innocent? Must a new future be obtained by any means necessary?

"I initially believed it, but now I'm starting to doubt it."

"I'm going to find Qi Huiming and demand an explanation from him."

"The key you have can open the office safe, which contains keys to the entire dormitory building, including the dorm rooms and our student union's storage room."

"I've taken some of the stubborn members from the student council. You can use the rest if you want, or disband it if you don't."

"I'm not a good leader, and neither is Qi Huiming, and the student council can't bring a bright future."

But I think you can…

"That's a good point, but who knows if he's actually a fugitive to avoid punishment."

Ji Mingyu sneered, clearly displeased with Qi Xiaoran.

Although he didn't participate yesterday, he stood by and watched, allowing the Radiant Order to set up their scheme in the dormitory building, so he can be considered the culprit.

"Brother Yun, he's dumped the student council role on you. What are you planning to do?"

Qi Xiaoran did run away quickly, leaving behind most of the manpower and resources, but with Du Zhaoyan dead after he left, the entire dormitory building was left leaderless.

If left unchecked, it will cause trouble.

Xiao Yun pondered, recalling the many conflicts that had occurred since he transmigrated.

"It is unrealistic to expect peace to be achieved through the kindness of others."

Xiao Yun looked at dormitory building number 3 and said quietly:

"From this day forward, we will take order and rules into our own hands!"

Of course, ideals and reality are two different things.

Although Xiao Yun has made a decision and determined the general direction of future development, it will take time to turn it into reality.

The plan was proceeding smoothly, and Xiao Yun finally had some free time.

They tidied up the dormitory that Cui Shan and the others had ransacked, and repaired the livestock pens and vegetable garden.

With some free time, Xiao Yun was able to organize yesterday's findings.

"The total attribute points are: Strength +9, Agility +12, Constitution +7, Intelligence +6."

Most of the attribute points were contributed by Cui Shan and his two companions. Other members of the Radiant Order, who were not of the same level, received significantly reduced attribute point rewards.

"However, after this addition, my overall attributes are much more balanced."

[Passive Skills: Focus (D), Tranquility (D-)]

[Active Skills: Focus D, Mana Flow E+, Mana Shock E+, Void Slash D+, Speed ​​Boost E, Berserk E, Thrust E+, Stealth E]

Judging from his attributes alone, Xiao Yun felt that he was developing into a "bucket" type.

However, the benefits of talent and skills are only so-so.

"Fire Affect... It'll do for now. It'll be good for applying a burn effect to the Mithril Sword. Of these skills, only Speed ​​Boost and Stealth are truly useful."

The stats from Berserk are completely outclassed by Blood and Fire Poem, while Thrust requires a gun or spear-type weapon to unleash.

"Your own skill set is still the most useful."

Xiao Yun sighed softly, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind.

"If I use the Myriad Manifestations True Understanding, can I dismantle the redundant skills and transform them into useful ones?"
