A group of people left the warehouse and headed to the dormitory building.
Since there is no dedicated dining hall and the school's original dining hall cannot accommodate so many students, food is distributed at the entrances of the two dormitories, with students queuing up according to their classes.
Because of the teachers maintaining order, the students were quite well-behaved and did not chatter or make noise. Now the students know that zombies identify their prey by sound, so they instinctively speak in a low voice and no longer make a lot of noise.
Some of those who received the food went to the side and started eating, while others took the food back to their dormitories. Li Wei watched this scene and knew that this order would only last for a few days at most. He had to find some things for these students to do, otherwise they would eventually become bored out of their minds.
People tend to overthink when they have too much free time, so it's good to give them some work to help them pass the time. Simple tasks are fine, but the point is to prevent them from living a life of complete dependence.
After breakfast, Li Wei went to the broadcasting room and broadcast a notice to all the students and teachers.
"Please, Bakujima Asako, Miyamoto Rei, Takagi Saya, Kojima Minami, and Ibuki Mihoko, assemble in the former chairman's office now."
Chapter 176. Outward Exploration Plan
The chairman's office had been converted into a conference room. Li Wei didn't have to wait long before several girls arrived at the conference room one after another.
Dokushima, Miyamoto, and Takagi are all important characters in the original story, while the other two are unlucky characters who die at the very beginning of the story.
Li Wei looked at Kojima Minami and Ibuki Mihoko.
Minami Kojima is a first-year student in the kendo club. Her short black hair is tied into a neat high ponytail. She is not tall, but she has a very well-proportioned figure. The muscles on her arms and thighs are more developed than those of other girls her age, which shows that her basic kendo skills are quite good.
Minami Kojima has a delicate and pretty face, giving off a girl-next-door vibe. However, her skill level is top-tier among the first-year members of the kendo club. If it weren't for her late entry into the club and missing the Dragon Flag competition, Kiba Busujima would have wanted to take her to the tournament. Beside her stands Miho Ibuki, tall and voluptuous. Although also a first-year student, her figure rivals Kiba Busujima's. She has long, jet-black hair styled in a meticulously styled princess cut—a hairstyle that most women couldn't pull off and would make them look older, but it suits her perfectly.
Mihoko Ibuki is a first-year member of the spear club. Her ancestors were samurai from the Todoro clan who were skilled in using cross spears and naginatas. During the Meiji Restoration, her family declined and fell from the privileged class to ordinary people, but her family's martial arts were passed down. Her strength is even greater than that of Rei Miyamoto, who was originally a third-year student but is now a second-year student.
Li Wei said, "I called everyone here because I have something important to tell you. Although I have enough supplies here to last everyone for several years, and if we are frugal, it is even possible to last for ten years, but if we just sit around and do nothing, the supplies will eventually run out. So I plan to search for supplies outside to replenish the camp's inventory."
Everyone could understand Li Wei's statement. Anyone with a sound mind would know that without any material income, they would eventually run out of money.
With so many people at the school eating, the consumption of supplies is no small amount. Therefore, the camp would inevitably put the external exploration plan on the agenda. However, they did not expect Li Wei to bring up the plan so early. Li Wei said, "You can raise any questions you have. The camp is not my personal fiefdom. Any reasonable suggestion that can be accepted by the majority will be adopted."
Saya Takagi thought for a moment and said, "The external exploration plan is inevitable, that's settled for now. But how to carry out the external exploration is the most important thing. First, how do we solve the problem of transportation? Relying solely on our own two feet, we can't go very far, and we can't carry much supplies. Moreover, exploring outside will inevitably lead to conflicts with zombies and even other survivors. How will we protect ourselves?"
It has to be said that Takagi Saya is quite clever. Levi had only presented the plan, and she had already begun to refine its feasibility, ensuring its maximum achievability. Levi said, "Everyone, please sit down. I will answer all the questions Takagi-san raised." Hearing Levi's words, the girls sat down, though they were still somewhat unaccustomed to this meeting room.
Li Wei said, "I have considered the issues of transportation and weapons. The transportation we use will naturally not be ordinary. We now know that those zombies hunt prey by sound, so ordinary transportation is no longer suitable for the current situation. Therefore, I plan to use flying carpets for mobility."
Li Wei took out a "blanket" from his sea of consciousness. He grasped the edge of the blanket with both hands, gently lifted it, and the unfolded blanket floated in mid-air, stopping steadily there.
The girls looked surprised.
It took Bakujima Yako a while to come to her senses before she said, "Is this the flying carpet from the Arabian Nights? How amazing!"
Li Wei chuckled, "Pretty much, since the functions are the same. It's just that this flying carpet is one I made myself, so it's not as agile as the ones in the stories, nor does it automatically protect its owner. This flying carpet requires me to operate it to fly, and it doesn't have any independent consciousness. In case of danger, it doesn't have any special protective mechanism." (Requesting flowers...)
Dokushima Yako said, "That's quite remarkable, isn't it? Being able to fly into the sky means avoiding most of the dangers, doesn't it?"
Li Wei laughed and said, "Making this flying carpet is not difficult for me at all. However, it is not an easy task to popularize it in the camp because you do not have the power to control the flying carpet. In your hands, the flying carpet is just a high-grade carpet that is more durable than an ordinary carpet."
Saya Takagi asked, "Then how can we gain the power to control the flying carpet?"
Li Wei said, "It's not that I'm deliberately keeping you in suspense or deliberately not telling you the answer, but rather that I'm considering your level of understanding, so I can't tell you for now." Takagi Saya asked疑惑地问道, "Does obtaining that kind of power require paying some kind of price?"
Li Wei shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it later. Anyway, there won't be any large-scale personnel going out of the camp right now. Controlling just one or two flying carpets is nothing to me." Takagi Saya's curiosity was piqued by Li Wei, but he didn't tell her the answer, which made her itchy with desire. However, judging from Li Wei's expression, he probably wouldn't tell her.
But Takagi Saya was not giving up. It was indeed difficult to ask in front of so many people, but she could ask in private. She didn't expect to be able to control the terrifying power of celestial phenomena like Li Wei, but being able to control the flying carpet would allow her to do many things.
If she could ride the flying carpet, she could return to her family's mansion to check on her parents' safety. Even if she didn't do these personal things, using the flying carpet's mobility to gather supplies or go fishing in the coastal waters would be a good option.
Chapter 177. Saya Takagi's Concerns
Li Wei changed the subject, saying, "Don't dwell on this too much. I'll tell you when the time is right. I'm afraid you wouldn't accept it if I told you now. Let's talk about weapons instead." At the mention of weapons, the girls' eyes all fell on Busujima Yako, whose katana was very eye-catching.
Now everyone knows about the relationship between Busujima Yako and Levi, which gave her a divine weapon that can cut through iron like mud, allowing her to kill zombies with a single strike, almost without needing to finish them off.
It would be a lie to say I'm not envious of this, but not everyone has a different relationship with Li Wei, so it's best to just think about it.
"Yako's '993' knife is a real treasure," Takagi Saya exclaimed.
Upon hearing Saya Takagi's words, Yako Busujima gripped her knife tighter. She knew how coveted her weapon was, so she carried it with her wherever she went.
Li Wei said, "Yazi's knife is indeed a good thing. Even in my collection, treasures of this caliber are quite rare. However, the weapons I'm issuing to you are also extraordinary, far superior in quality to similar weapons."
Li Wei said to Miyamoto Rei and Ibuki Mihoko, "Miyamoto-san, Ibuki-san, I checked the school's personnel information before. You two are the main force of the school's gunnery club and are good at using long weapons. The reason I recruited you for this five-person team is because of your expertise in long weapons."
Li Wei took out two cross-shaped guns from his sea of consciousness and placed them in front of the two men.
Both Miyamoto Rei and Ibuki Mihoko were discerning individuals. The two cross-shaped spears, each with a different design, were simple and dignified in appearance, with stunning blades, clearly indicating that they were extraordinary weapons.
"These two short guns are for you two. There's a saying in Chinese martial arts: 'An inch longer, an inch stronger.' Long guns have a wider killing range than samurai swords and are more effective in fighting zombies."
Li Wei took out a samurai sword from his sea of consciousness and placed it in front of Kojima Minami, saying, "This sword is also extraordinary. Although its sharpness is not as good as Ya Zi's, this sword can absorb iron elements from the outside world to repair itself. In other words, when it kills living creatures, the blood on it will be automatically cleaned off. There is no need to worry about rust or contamination of the scabbard. With a light flick, the bloodstains can be shaken off. After the blade is dulled, it will also quickly repair itself. As long as the user has enough stamina, this is a demon sword that can kill enemies indefinitely."
This sword was the product of Li Wei's failed weapon forging, but even so, it still received a white-grade item rating from the system. Although it was considered to be of average quality among white-grade items, and could not compare to the one in Busujima Yako's hands, it was still not comparable to ordinary so-called famous swords.
Seeing that everyone else already had weapons, Takagi Saya felt a little panicked and said, "What about me? Teacher, why am I the only one without a weapon?"
Li Wei laughed, "With your close combat skills, how could I dare to give you a close-combat weapon? Here, take this. I made it myself. It uses small-caliber exploding bullets, which have relatively poor penetration, but they are very effective against zombies." What appeared in front of Takagi Saya was a small pistol with a short silencer, along with six magazines full of bullets and a bag of loose bullets.
Li Wei said, "This is a firearm I made myself. Its performance is much better than the firearms available on the market, and it requires almost no maintenance. Even a complete novice can use it. However, when not in use, remember to put on the safety to avoid accidental discharge and injuring your own people. The instruction manual is in the bag. You have half an hour to familiarize yourself with this gun."
Saya Takagi was very happy, but when she heard Li Wei say that she only had half an hour, she was a little surprised and said, "Is the departure time so soon?"
Li Wei smiled and said, "This is to wait for you. If we hadn't waited for you to get familiar with the firearms, we would have set off now... You're the brains of the team, not good at close combat, so this is the only weapon we can give you. I hope you can make the most of it." Takagi Saya listened to Li Wei's words, pondered for a moment, and then said, "It seems, teacher, you're not planning to give us much support. Are you planning to train us?"
Li Wei nodded and said, "After all, I don't have the ability to create clones. You will always face situations where I'm not around, but you still have to fight. So, I'm training you as the core in advance so that you can mentor other students later."
Upon hearing that they would be groomed as core members, Miyamoto Rei, Ibuki Mihoko, and Kojima Minami all showed expressions of surprise. This meant that they would likely receive more preferential treatment than others in the future. In such an apocalyptic world, no one would complain about having too much.
Dokushima Yako didn't consider that aspect. She only knew that Levi would take care of her, and all she needed to do was follow his orders.
The quick-witted Takagi Saya had witnessed how her father made empty promises to his subordinates, so when faced with Li Wei's grandiose claims, she only feigned excitement, but in reality, she didn't take Li Wei's words seriously. 2.7, being able to make ends meet here was already a blessing, and she didn't dare to ask for too much.
As for wanting to leave the group to go back and find her family, which is almost suicidal, Takagi Saya is unwilling to do. If she goes back and doesn't find her family, it won't be so easy for her to come back.
The survivor camp has a low barrier to entry for leaving but a high barrier to entry for returning. Once she chooses to leave the organization, even if Li Wei agrees to come back, the others will reject her because every additional person in the camp means that the others will receive fewer supplies.
It is precisely because of this that Saya Takagi, who has a profound understanding of the dark side of human nature, dares not easily leave the organization.
Chapter 178. On the Flying Carpet
The group rested in the conference room while Takagi Saya got used to the guns. Since the room wasn't a suitable place to test the guns, Takagi Saya went up to the rooftop, found something to use as a target, and started experimenting.
Without being stingy with ammunition, Saya Takagi only needed fifty bullets to become familiar with the performance of her weapon. While she couldn't guarantee accuracy at longer ranges, she could achieve over 90% hit rate within ten meters. Considering the movement of zombies, the hit rate would decrease to some extent, but she could still maintain at least a 50% hit rate.
"This gun is even better than I imagined. It's not only lightweight, but the recoil is also within an acceptable range. The specially made short-barreled silencer almost suppresses the sound to the level of a fart. My teacher is really something else to be able to make a gun that even a layman like me can use... No, it's not surprising that an apprentice immortal like him can do something like this. It's a pity that I can't find an opportunity to be alone with him and ask him how to control the flying carpet."
Saya Takagi put the gun back into the .26 quickdraw holster under her arm. She felt that she was learning things more efficiently than before. She didn't know if it was an illusion or what, but she had become familiar with the use of a firearm in less than ten minutes. She had actually done something magical, which she found unbelievable.
Li Wei was watching Takagi Saya's every move closely. He naturally heard her mutterings to herself. Takagi Saya was a girl with a complicated mind, and it was normal for her to have all sorts of random thoughts.
Li Wei didn't have to wait long before Takagi Saya returned to the conference room.
“I’ve mastered the performance of this gun. It can provide basic fire support within ten meters, but I can’t guarantee accuracy beyond that,” said Saya Takagi. Minami Kojima added, “Ten meters is barely enough. At least it can ensure the team won’t be surrounded by zombies.”
After being trained by Li Wei, people like them could fight zombies one-on-one with almost no pressure. However, even a good tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves. Zombies don't care about martial ethics with survivors. Once they start fighting, they will swarm and attack. Once surrounded, unless Li Wei intervenes, they will surely die.
After all, zombies carry infectious viruses. Whether you are scratched or bitten, you will be infected by the virus and become a member of the zombie horde.
The girls present had the courage to engage in close combat with zombies, which is far superior to that of ordinary girls.
Li Wei said, "Don't worry, when you face a life-or-death situation, I will save you. Don't worry that I will fail. There is no one I cannot save if I want to save them."
With Li Wei's assurance, the girls felt much more at ease. As for Tokushima Yako, she remained calm. After all, she had already encountered "higher-level individuals" of ordinary zombies and had even experienced that terrifying, certain-death situation. What else was there to be afraid of?
Moreover, the treasured sword in her hand could kill ordinary zombies as easily as cutting tofu, and with her mindset adjusted, she naturally felt at peace.
"Now that we're ready, let's go up to the rooftop. We'll ride a flying carpet through the air," Li Wei said with a smile.
"I should have waited on the rooftop. It would have helped me digest my food. The recoil from the pistol almost made me throw up my breakfast," Saya Takagi sighed.
“Then you’ll have to stand on the rooftop for another twenty minutes in the wind,” Li Wei laughed.
The group arrived at the rooftop. Li Wei controlled the flying carpet to land on the ground. After everyone sat on it, the shield on the outside of the flying carpet was activated, ensuring that the passengers would not fall off while also blocking out strong air currents from blowing them off course.
The flying carpet slowly rose into the air, and apart from Li Wei, who was already used to the feeling of flying, everyone else looked around curiously.
Rei Miyamoto scrambled to the edge of the flying carpet, stretching her hand outwards, only to touch an invisible barrier.
Li Wei said, "Don't worry about falling. The flying carpet I made is not as rudimentary as the prototype in One Thousand and One Nights, which doesn't even have the most basic safety measures."
At this moment, Miyamoto Rei was kneeling with her back to Li Wei, her private parts partially visible. Although the shield of the flying carpet could block the strong wind, air currents would still pass through from above, and the excessively short school uniform skirt of the private Fujimi Academy could not be concealed at all.
Li Wei sighed inwardly. Although Miyamoto Rei had a flawed personal character, he had to admit that she was quite charming. The fact that she could switch between Komuro Takashi and Igo Hisashi was quite remarkable.
Unfortunately, Li Wei felt no desire for her whatsoever. After all, he knew what kind of person she was; her extremely manipulative behavior disgusted him.
Li Wei withdrew his gaze. Miyamoto Rei was just a tool to annoy Komuro Takashi and Igo Hisashi. He didn't have any particular thoughts about Miyamoto Rei.
Dokushima Kiko leaned against Levi's back, the two of them back to back, looking relaxed. Takagi Saya sat to the side, constantly practicing the action of quickly drawing a gun, while Kojima Minami and Ibuki Mihoko watched Dokushima Kiko with envious eyes.
“Flying in the sky and enjoying the scenery is a pleasant thing, but unfortunately the view below isn’t so wonderful,” Li Wei said. Takagi Saya asked, “Teacher, won’t the people below see us as we fly so openly?” Li Wei replied, “Don’t worry about that. I’ve used an illusion; the people below won’t be able to see us.” “An illusion?” the petite girl, Kojima Minami, asked curiously.
Li Wei said, "You can think of it as optical camouflage, except the effect of the illusion is even more sophisticated than the most advanced optical camouflage technology currently available. It can perfectly block images, sounds, smells, and even presence." Kojima Minami looked on with longing and smiled, "Teacher is really amazing! Is there anything you can't do?"
Li Wei said, "I'm not omniscient or omnipotent. There are many things I can't do. Like this crisis, I couldn't stop it, or even control the situation."
Minami Kojima sighed, "No one could have predicted this situation. The apocalypse came out of nowhere. But we're lucky to have met you, teacher. If it weren't for you, we might all be zombies by now." Li Wei inwardly wanted to retort, "Girl, you've already seen your fate in another timeline."
