Too Many Reincarnators? I Bring the National Team to the Field - Chapter 72
Apocalypse Countdown: 11 days.
The Special Affairs Division’s cafeteria lunch was as sumptuous as ever. Whether it flew in the sky, ran on the ground, or swam in the water-as long as it was edible and nutritious, the Logistics Department could get it for them.
So, no matter how tired or busy they were, when it was time to eat, all members showed up on time.
The country’s sincerity toward the Special Affairs Division members was evident in every aspect.
Sheng An was eating.
In front of her was a bowl of rice and three dishes: one meat, one vegetable, and one soup. The meat dish was clear-braised crab meat lion’s head, the vegetable was boiled cabbage, and the soup was seafood soup.
The clear-braised crab meat lion’s head was requested by Li Xin.
The boiled cabbage was ordered by Jiang Yu to broaden her culinary horizons.
The seafood soup was chosen by Zhang Kun, who absolutely loved seafood.
Sheng An and Qi Lingwu were too lazy to order, so the kitchen matched their meals based on the others’ choices.
Nutritious and delicious.
They sat on the left side of the cafeteria; on the right was Qiu Yu with the Group A members.
It was rare for both groups to appear in the cafeteria at the same time.
Group A’s Lou Mingwei glanced at Sheng An’s group, then deliberately spoke loudly with his teammates-
“Sister Xiang is amazing! Her combat power is off the charts.”
“Of course, she has the Ice Element Ability. After the meteorite falls, the whole world will be on fire, temperatures will be extremely high, so Sister Xiang’s ability is both practical and valuable!”
“Lou, you’re awesome too! Thunder Element Ability-one strike is basically a bomb.”
“That’s why you need Superpower Users! No matter how strong ordinary people are, their ceiling is just so high.”
“Our Sister Qiu is the real deal. She was feared in her past life, and now she leads strong members like Sister Xiang and Lou.”
“By the way, did we find another Superpower User?”
“Yes, hopefully another combat powerhouse. If so, our group will be invincible, hahaha.”
…
The whole cafeteria was filled with boasting.
From the perspective of abilities, Group A’s combat strength was indeed higher than Group B’s, especially since they had Qiu Yu, the Team Leader with the Puppet Ability.
Their boasting was, in fact, a subtle mockery of Group B.
Song Linwei’s face darkened slightly.
He wanted to retort, but Sheng An looked at him: “Have all departments finished planning the disaster-avoidance locations?”
Song Linwei immediately snapped back to business:
“Yes. In six days, the country will officially announce the Apocalypse. The document issued this morning is about location planning-the Special Affairs Division will be in the eastern suburb villa district, the core shelter.”
Sheng An nodded.
Song Linwei continued: “Once we finish screening the information we have, we’ll have to relocate too. But the core shelter has limited space, not as spacious as here, and the dorm conditions will be worse. We’ll have to share with Group A.”
Sharing with Group A…
Just thinking about it sounded chaotic.
Sheng An paused briefly, then looked up, her tone meaningful:
“Don’t worry about accommodations. Also, once Wu Buyu joins us, we can prepare to move. The screening work before today should be done, and there will be quite a few Deviants we need to contact. Time is tight.”
“Huh?” Song Linwei was stunned.
At that moment, Hao Jingye entered with Long Tianyu and Li Wanyun.
Long Tianyu and Li Wanyun both had dark circles under their eyes, walking like ghosts-drifting, eyes lifeless and bloodshot, weak and drained, as if they’d been squeezed dry.
Their appearance made Group A’s boasting pause slightly.
After all-
One possessed the Space Ability for combat.
The other had the unique Flash Step Ability-both were top-tier experts.
Lou Mingwei glanced at them, frowning:
“Are they really reborn experts? They don’t look like much.”
Both walked as if floating, with no hint of intimidation.
Li Wanyun shifted her gaze to them, pausing on Qiu Yu and Xiang Hanshuang, then fixing on Lou Mingwei, her eyes dangerous and icy.
He was the one who killed her in her previous life.
Li Wanyun sneered, “Not much? Want to compete?”
Lou Mingwei shot up, face full of anger, ready for a confrontation.
Sheng An said calmly, “Eat.”
Li Wanyun bared her teeth.
Was she someone who could ignore her enemy for a meal?
Her gaze swept the table; the staff had just brought her lunch-her favorite grilled fish, a rare seafood platter, abalone rice, vegetable salad, and pearl yam dessert.
A brilliant smile slowly appeared on Li Wanyun’s cold face: “Alright.”
Actually-
She’d already avenged Lou Mingwei in her previous life; there was no rush this time.
She quickly sat down, and by then, Long Tianyu was already eating.
The two of them ate like starving ghosts reborn.
-Which wasn’t far from the truth.
-After all, they’d both survived two years in the Apocalypse before.
Lou Mingwei still wanted to provoke them.
Sheng An glanced at him indifferently, making him swallow his words.
Only then did she speak: “How’s the screening work going?”
Hao Jingye replied excitedly, “Long Tianyu and Li Wanyun are incredible! Using their memories from their previous lives, they finished all the screening work last night! They even identified several problematic individuals-I’ve already asked the Information Department to start investigating.”
“You didn’t sleep all night?” Song Linwei asked in surprise.
Hao Jingye nodded emphatically.
Just then, Jiang Yu and Li Xin, who had just stepped into the cafeteria, happened to overhear the conversation.
The two of them: “??”
What kind of new form of involution is this?
Surpassing “sleeping during class” and “only sleeping six hours”-now it’s not sleeping at all!
Long Tianyu and Li Wanyun are both so intense-how come when it comes to getting things done, they’re this competitive?
Are they even going to let the rest of us live?
The two suddenly even stumbled in their steps.
Sheng An praised, “Very good, you helped us gather teammates faster. Well done.”
It was rare to be praised by Sheng An.
Long Tianyu paused in his eating, cleared his throat, and lifted his chin. “It’s nothing, really. After all, I’m now a member of Group B of the Special Affairs Division.”
How could Li Wanyun lose to him?
She immediately raised her head. “Thank you for the compliment. It’s my duty-serving the country.”
Song Linwei caught on and excitedly exclaimed:
“Doesn’t this mean we’re going to have a few more teammates? With your help, Sister Sheng’s recruitment speed is skyrocketing! You Reborn Persons are making the most of your second chance!”
Yang Chuan from Group A, who had just been boasting: “…”
He’s a Reborn Person too…
He hasn’t done anything…
Qiu Yu shot him a sharp look.
Yang Chuan shrank his neck and wilted.
Sheng An asked again, “Jiang Yu, Li Xin, how did it go today?”
With Long Tianyu and Li Wanyun setting the bar so high, how could they dare say anything but good?
Jiang Yu smiled slightly. “Learned a lot again. The planting range of my space has expanded.”
Li Xin gritted his teeth. “Pretty good. I’ve learned all the colors of metals and today I successfully completed metal color transformation.”
Next to them, Lou Mingwei and Xiang Hanshuang lowered their heads.
Qiu Yu looked at them coldly.
Sheng An: “What about Ke Jiaxue and Zhang Kun?”
Ke Jiaxue looked obedient. “Today I learned about water friction and water pressure explosions-very productive!”
Huang Weiyang, the Water Ability User from Group A: “…”
His head was almost hanging under the table.
Qiu Yu’s gaze shifted to him.
Zhang Kun scratched his head. “I’m not that capable. I only have a Space Ability, so I can only help the country transport goods and store some important things in my space, just in case of the apocalypse.”
Group A, which doesn’t have a Space Ability User: “.”
Sheng An smiled. “Everyone has their role. Our group is doing great. Even if we can’t be invincible, we’re all working hard to improve. That’s good.”
Group A, who had been boasting about being invincible: “..”
Silence spread among the members of Group A.
Boasting about their powerful Ice and Thunder Element abilities?
The others have Flash, Space Ability, Metal Ability, and they’re constantly improving-very productive.
Boasting about discovering another Deviant?
The others, thanks to the all-nighter efforts of Reborn Persons, discovered several at once.
Boasting about being invincible?
Count the combat strength next door. Rumor has it they’ve got their eyes on another Atavistic Mutant, and if you add a few more new Superpower Users…
-Damn, Lou Mingwei felt his face sting.
Qiu Yu’s face was so dark it could drip ink.
She suddenly stood up, stared hard at her team, and said coldly, “I think I’ve been too lenient with you all. Meeting!”
With that, she turned and left.
-Involution was clearly about to begin among all members of the Special Affairs Division.
Group A members: “…”
They looked at each other, then stood up dejectedly and followed.
Yu Feng called after their backs, “Friends from Group A, you haven’t finished your meal-why are you leaving?”
Group A members gritted their teeth.
Lou Mingwei couldn’t help it and turned around, ready to intimidate them.
However-
As soon as he turned, he saw Li Xin, Long Tianyu, Li Wanyun, and Ke Jiaxue all raising their hands, ready to counterattack.
Qi Lingwu, Yu Feng, and Wan Yuan all had their guns loosely in hand.
Sheng An looked at him expressionlessly.
Lou Mingwei: “…”
His raised middle finger was his last bit of defiance.
Then, he dashed off to catch up with Qiu Yu and the others.
Group A retreated.
Hao Jingye snorted lightly. “Still dare to boast? Look at Team Leader Qiu’s reaction… Time for everyone to start involuting!”
And the culprits of this involution had already finished eating.
Li Wanyun wiped her mouth and said through gritted teeth, “I’m going to get a good sleep this afternoon. No one is allowed to wake me.”
Long Tianyu nodded in strong agreement. “Me too.”
Sheng An glanced at them.
For once, the two were united in thought: if she didn’t agree, they would rebel!
“Fine,” Sheng An nodded, very straightforward.
The two: “?”
She agreed so quickly it made them suspicious.
Was it because they had just cooperated with her?
Sheng An put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and smiled:
“The Inspection Department has already obtained evidence of Wu Buyu’s awakening. This afternoon, we’re going to find him. Because of Wu Buyu’s personality and abilities, this operation should be quite interesting.
“Originally, I planned to take everyone, but since you two want to sleep, then rest well. I’ll take Jiang Yu and the others-think of it as a relaxing team-building outing.”
