Chapter 3

: Survival of the Class?

Li Yi and Jiang Ying joined the group of survivors from Jiangxi University.

The number of survivors here is not small.

And its scale continues to expand.

As more rafts are connected, people in the distance will see them and try to get closer in that direction.

Furthermore, some of the surviving students at Jiang University also received the ability to boost vehicle stats.

Even when driving a raft, it moves steadily and at a speed comparable to a motorboat.

Their search and rescue team also includes students with reconnaissance skills.

Therefore, the search and rescue efficiency is not low.

In just half a day, the number of survivors increased from dozens to over a hundred!

As Li Yi had predicted, this time travel was more like a regional journey.

Simply put, people from the same region are more likely to end up in the same sea area after crossing over.

These hundred or so people are mostly students and teachers from the school.

They were all grouped according to grade and department.

Li Yi was previously a sophomore majoring in Information Science at Jiangnan University.

Therefore, the area around his raft was filled with the surviving classmates.

There were already more girls than boys in the class, and now that there are even fewer boys, the class is practically just a bunch of pretty girls.

Li Yi was caught in the middle, and his situation was somewhat awkward.

As evening approached, a raft rowed by.

A beautiful teacher was standing on the raft.

Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, a barely perceptible hint of weariness flashed across her intellectually beautiful face.

This is Chu Ying, Li Yi's counselor.

"Dear students, I am very happy to see that you are still alive."

"Teacher, please take a headcount so we can distribute the food for dinner."

Among the survivors of Jiangnan University, there are currently more than ten teachers and about one hundred students.

In front of the students, the teachers forcibly suppressed their fear of the apocalypse, trying their best to reassure the students and restore order.

Li Yi's class was down to fifteen students.

Twelve women and three men.

Of course, this doesn't mean everyone else is dead.

Or perhaps they are lost in the endless sea.

"Fifteen people?"

Women are ultimately emotional.

Looking at the surviving students, Chu Ying recalled the lively classroom scene before she transmigrated, and couldn't help but take off her glasses and rub her eyes.

"Students, don't be afraid, your teacher will always be with you and protect you!"

After she left, the girls in the class also began to sob quietly.

"I want to go home..."

"I miss my mom too."

Li Yi lay on the raft, his heart devoid of emotion.

Although he is strong enough to cross oceans with his bare hands, there is currently no one who can threaten him.

But such a person would be too monotonous and boring.

Even Superman needs entertainment.

There were many forms of entertainment before the time travel.

Playing on your phone, watching movies, etc.

He has watched the movie "Superman" many times.

It's a bit of a shame that the other person was acting, while he was the real one.

He really wanted to have a go at Superman in his prime.

Let's see if we can make him feel that long-lost passion.

Things became much more boring after I traveled through time.

He could only lie on the raft and listen to the girls' whispers.

First of all, Li Yi did not intend to eavesdrop on these girls' private affairs.

Her hearing is really good.

Most of them are gossip about love, hate, and grudges.

Faintly, Li Yi seemed to hear a hushed argument.

"There are clearly fifteen people in our class, so why were we only given ten compressed biscuits and one bottle of mineral water?"

"There were clearly several boxes of supplies in the crates we salvaged earlier! And there was also other food!"

"Director, I need a good reason! How am I supposed to explain this to my students?!"

This seems interesting?

Listen carefully.

That voice was undoubtedly that of his class's counselor.

Soon several more voices rang out.

"Teacher Chu, please don't get agitated."

"This was a decision made by our teachers after careful consideration, all with the students' best interests at heart!"

"You know the situation of the male and female students in your class. Most of them are girls. How much food can they eat?"

"We did manage to retrieve a few packs of compressed biscuits, but how many students do we have? Besides, we need to think about tomorrow, don't we?"

"Teacher Chu, you're still too young. Your perspective shouldn't be so narrow..."

A barrage of criticism left Chu Ying speechless.

In the end, she could only grit her teeth and carefully put the food she had been given into her bag.

She went back to her class.

"Classmates... there are relatively few resources at sea, so I've taken some compressed biscuits... please share them."

She said softly.

However, he dared not look at the students.

Fifteen people, ten compressed biscuits.

This isn't even enough to give everyone one piece!

The chubby boy in the class couldn't stay in bed any longer.

"Teacher Chu, are you kidding? How can one compressed biscuit be enough?"

"I've been starving all day!!"

He couldn't help but complain.

The other girls in the class also began to raise objections quietly.

No one has adapted to this kind of life yet.

Even if we don't talk about fancy dishes, there should at least be two dishes and a soup.

Now it's just one compressed biscuit per person.

How can anyone accept this?

But Chu Ying, as the counselor, had no choice.

She looked troubled and glanced at Jiang Ying.

Jiang Ying, as the class monitor, finally stepped forward at this moment.

"Everyone, food is limited, we need to understand the teacher!"

"There are only ten compressed biscuits in total. One biscuit per person isn't enough. I suggest half a biscuit per person, and those who have done manual labor can have an extra half biscuit. What do you think?"

Jiang Ying was quite popular in the class, and after she spoke, everyone fell silent.

To be fair, her method was already quite good.

After all, letting people choose who eats more is gentler than letting them choose who eats less.

The latter is more likely to damage the friendship between classmates.

Fifteen people, each person gets half a dollar, that's seven and a half dollars.

There are two and a half pieces left.

"Does anyone object to letting Yueyue eat half a piece more?"

Liu Yue's abilities proved invaluable today.

The vines connected the rafts, creating a safe area.

She ate half a piece more, and no one objected.

Before Jiang Ying could finish speaking, the chubby boy in the class started shouting.

"I'll have half a piece more, is that alright?"

Soon, some girls objected.

"Fatty Qin, what gives you the right to eat half a piece more? Just because you have a big face?"

"Exactly! You didn't do anything, so why should you eat more? I don't agree!"

The fat man named Qin Chen was so angry that his face turned red when he saw this.

"You girls have small appetites, what kind of physique do I have?"

"Give me half a piece, or I might as well starve to death!"

The two sides argued endlessly for a time.

Jiang Ying smoothed things over and distributed everyone's share first.

"Everyone, please eat first. Let's discuss anything we need to talk about."

Li Yi also shared half a compressed biscuit with a small cup of water.

He finished eating quickly.

This amount of food provided him with almost no energy.

In layman's terms, it's the same as not eating at all.

Of course, he is a superman, and his physical condition cannot be compared with that of ordinary people.

But for an average girl, these compressed biscuits are enough to fill her up.

When it came time to discuss who should get the extra cookies, the girls all gave in.

The other two boys said they were hungry, so they shared half a piece between them.

Jiang Ying, as the class monitor, also received half a piece.

The remaining piece was given to a girl in the class who had a big appetite.

At this moment, Li Yi's attention had shifted to the dozen or so rafts.

There was a simple shed made of strips of cloth and wooden sticks.

The people inside are struggling to open the cans.

The can was opened, revealing chunks of luncheon meat.

Li Yi's eyes narrowed slightly.

He doesn't usually meddle in other people's business, but he's in a bad mood right now.

While pondering how to teach the other party a lesson.

A dark figure moved closer to him.

"Here you are."

Jiang Ying secretly slipped him half a compressed biscuit.

"Li Yi, are you too embarrassed to say you're hungry?"

"I have some extra cookies here, you can have them."

She was worried that others would find out and spread rumors, which would violate her image as a "fair and impartial" class monitor.

Jiang Ying did not linger and soon quietly left again.

Holding the biscuit in his hand, Li Yi's slightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
