Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

"Ah Yun, Ah Yun, wake up, our dorm room has been upgraded."

Hearing Ji Mingyu's call, Xiao Yun slowly woke up.

I had just groggily opened my eyes when the three people next to me impatiently pulled me up.

It wasn't until he was led all the way to the dormitory entrance and the door was pushed open that Xiao Yun fully regained consciousness.

Standing in the newly renovated dormitory, everyone stared blankly at the structure they had designed themselves.

The hall, which is envisioned as a daily activity area, currently only has a few wooden tables and chairs. There is no decent furniture, and even the floor is still cement.

But when the sunlight streamed through the balcony and into the living room, it inexplicably brought a sense of peace and security.

"You have a home now..."

Zhong Mo suddenly sighed and rubbed his eyes.

"Hey, I didn't expect Fatty to be so sentimental, he even cried."

"What are you laughing at? Aren't you rubbing your eyes too?"

"My eyes are a little sore because I was just blinded by the sunlight."

Ji Mingyu glanced at Wang Tianyuan, who was rubbing his eyes, and clicked his tongue in amazement:

"Who would have thought that this unfinished apartment would catch Young Master Wang's eye?"

Wang Tianyuan remained silent for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at Ji Mingyu, his eyes filled with seriousness:

"no the same."

In terms of decoration, this unfinished house is not even as good as their toilet.

However, even if you decorate your house to resemble Buckingham Palace, it's still not as good as the home you build yourself.

"Alright, stop standing here and let's look at our new home."

Xiao Yun patted the two of them on the shoulders, smiled, and paced around the room.

"It's a bit basic now, though. We'll find some civil engineers and interior designers to see if they can renovate it."

Although there aren't many good materials in the wilderness, you can still make some furniture and lay flooring out of wood and stone.

"Sure, I happen to know someone majoring in civil engineering who lives in our building. He shouldn't be too busy, so I'll go talk to him about it."

As he spoke, Wang Tianyuan hurriedly left the dormitory, and no sooner had he left than someone knocked on the door.

Jiang Shangzhen and Su Muqing walked in and praised the upgraded dormitory.

"Great, great, much better than my old, run-down teachers' apartment."

Su Muqing nodded and added:

"The only sunlight comes in is from the balcony, so it's a bit dark inside."

"That's easy."

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and took out a handful of orange-sized spherical objects.

"This is a little gadget I made on the spur of the slime monster. I mixed it with resin to make the outer shell so it can adhere to most places. Inside is the fire core of the fire spirit. I engraved suppression runes on it so I can adjust the light intensity."

As Jiang Shangzhen spoke, he tossed the items to Xiao Yun and the others.

"Take these. Each person should put one in their own room. According to my design calculations, they should last for at least three months."

Holding the magical alchemical artifact in their hands, Xiao Yun and the others gaped in astonishment.

Although Jiang Shangzhen had only been there for a day, Xiao Yun had already come to realize the value of his teacher.

A half-step academician who has transformed into an alchemist is practically a walking treasure trove.

"By the way, teacher, I still have materials for a boss-level fire spirit and a slime monster. Could you see if you can make a bigger one to hang in the living room?"

"That's possible, but... you'll have to set up an alchemy room for me first."

"Simple."

Xiao Yun waved his hand confidently, but saw a complex smile appear on Jiang Shangzhen's lips.

Xiao Yun's smile froze on the spot, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

An hour later, Huang Haoran hugged Jiang Shangzhen's leg, sobbing and crying:

"Teacher Jiang, we really have no resources left. Our family isn't wealthy either. We can't do this."

Xiao Yun stood to the side, head down, silent.

To be honest, he had great respect for science and truth, and held alchemy in high esteem.

But who would have thought that alchemy could be so expensive!

In order to build an alchemy room for Jiang Shangzhen, the student council used up almost all of the modern items they had stockpiled, and also used up most of the materials they had collected after their time travel.

According to Jiang Shangzhen, this is just a simple alchemy room. To build a complete alchemy workshop, the resources required would be astronomical.

Jiang Shangzhen looked at the group of students with worried expressions and sighed helplessly:

"Alright, let's just make do with this for now. You're just starting out, so we can't expect too much."

Although the current conditions are somewhat rudimentary, with his skill level, it's not unusable; it will just take a little effort.

Upon hearing Jiang Shangzhen's confirmation, everyone felt as if they had been granted a pardon, and Huang Haoran jumped up even more excitedly.

As the Minister of Internal Affairs, watching resources slip away is more painful than death for him.

But just as they were getting excited, the warehouse manager suddenly ran over and shouted excitedly:

"Brother Huang, come quick! Everyone's returned all the rewards they got yesterday!"

Xiao Yun looked at the warehouse manager:

"What exactly happened?"

"Building manager, you're here too!"

Seeing that Xiao Yun was also present, he became even more excited and quickly recounted the whole story.

It turned out that after Xiao Yun distributed the harvested materials equally yesterday, many people felt that they had taken too much, and returned the extra items this morning.

"Everyone says that since the building manager is so generous, they can't go against their conscience and take more than their share."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun's eyes flickered.

I never expected that such a small act of kindness would bring me such a richer reward than I had imagined.

Just as Xiao Yun was feeling sentimental, Jiang Shangzhen suddenly coughed twice behind him:

"Since we have the materials, then perhaps...?"

"No!"

Huang Haoran's face turned pale, his body swayed, and he sat down on the ground with a thud.

Fortunately, in the end, Jiang Shangzhen didn't make too many demands. He only asked for some materials needed for alchemy and then let Huang Haoran go.

"I'm sorry, teacher, the conditions here are a bit harsh. I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Ha, so what if the conditions are tough? This is only temporary."

Jiang Shangzhen patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder, his face full of anticipation.

"I believe that your side will soon surpass the student council."

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, then a smile bloomed on his face:

"I believe it too."

While the night of the full moon brought immense disaster, it also brought tremendous opportunities to those who survived.

Last night, 27 survivors became professionals thanks to the combined rewards from the two days.

Currently, there are more than 30 professionals in the ninth sequence in the dormitory building. According to the information provided by Jiang Shangzhen, the number of professionals in dormitory building No. 3 has caught up with the student council.

Although the student council will certainly not stand still after the full moon, Xiao Yun believes that when everyone here contributes to the collective, the future here is already obvious.

……

Meeting room in Dormitory Building No. 1.

"On the night of the full moon, our headquarters lost 183 of our compatriots, including 5 professionals."

"A total of 236 people died in Dormitory Building No. 2, including 6 professionals."

"We haven't received any updates from the other dormitories yet, but it's confirmed that all of our members in Building 10... have been wiped out..."

For a moment, the atmosphere in the meeting room became somewhat somber.

Even for the student council, the losses caused by the full moon were far too devastating.

At the head of the table, Qi Huiming pondered for a moment and said:

"We'll send someone to Dormitory Building 10 tomorrow to check on the situation. That's our warehouse, and we can't let anything get lost there."

"As for the shortfall caused by personnel losses..."

Qi Huiming frowned slightly and sighed helplessly:

"If all else fails, we can transfer people from the research institute, and also select some faculty and staff to compensate for the personnel losses."

"But if that's the case, I'm afraid many people will protest."

"We must protest. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. Let them suffer a bit, and I'll bear the blame."

Qi Huiming waved his hand, ending the discussion.

"As for the fallen professionals... we will recover the equipment and materials that can be recycled, and if there are family members, we will give them death compensation. I will personally go and comfort the female family members who are more emotionally vulnerable."

"The shortage of professionals needs to be filled quickly. How many people successfully switched jobs last night?"

The secretary glanced at the report in her hand and said:

"Last night, a total of 15 people at headquarters successfully transferred to other positions, and 9 people in dormitory building number two successfully transferred to other positions."

"Why is there so little?"

Qi Huiming frowned and asked. His secretary chuckled twice, just about to brush it off, when a cold laugh came from below.

"You should ask yourself that, Chairman Qi."
