Chapter 24 - Chapter 24、The City's Serial Killer: A New Threat Emerges!

After Lin Yue left, Yi Bai had a long conversation with Jiang Xiaoci.

After Jiang Xiaoci's analysis and explanation, the [Behind-the-Scenes Big Shot Plan] she tailored for Yi Bai was to recruit more human survivors to serve the shelter.

Build a management system centered around the talent units of the shelter. Let the appropriate talent units restrain the survivors, suppress the unfavorable factors among them, and guide them to work harder for the shelter.

And Yi Bai would stay behind the scenes, limiting the survivors' access to him and ensuring that only the most loyal talent units were around him.

"... As long as we form a complete shelter management mechanism, a pyramid system with you as the supreme, talents as the assistants, and survivors as the common people, your personal safety can be guaranteed. At the same time, the rapid development and expansion of the shelter can also be taken into account."

Jiang Xiaoci said softly: "As a behind-the-sccenes big shot, you don't need to do everything by yourself, sir. You just need to give orders and let others do it."

"When no one can get close to you, your safety will naturally be ensured. Naturally, you don't need to worry about the unpredictability of human hearts."

Jiang Xiaoci's words made Yi Bai think for a moment: "This system sounds a bit familiar... Isn't this like an ancient emperor?"

"You can understand it this way, sir."

Jiang Xiaoci's smile made Yi Bai's heart flutter.

This woman is going to put a yellow robe on me!

But seriously, what Jiang Xiaoci said was indeed good. If we want to satisfy Yi Bai's cautiousness and also consider the development and expansion of the shelter... this is the only way to go.

"Let's try it first. The future is unpredictable."

Yi Bai didn't directly agree. He promised to let Jiang Xiaoci arrange it according to this plan first.

"I will make proper arrangements."

Jiang Xiaoci nodded. She reminded: "Sir, the food is getting cold. Should I heat it up for you?"

"No, it's okay to eat like this."

Yi Bai waved his hand, feeling a bit extravagant.

It has been several days since the doomsday began. Most of the food in the city has already spoiled, and even the drinking water stinks.

Most humans are running out of food and drinking water. How can anyone enjoy the food before the doomsday like he does?

Although it was just some simple home-cooked meals, Yi Bai's treatment was far better than that of most of the survivors in the city.

After lunch, Jiang Xiaoci got up to clear the table and then took her leave from Yi Bai. She was going to continue to organize and plan the whole building.

Since Yi Bai wanted to use this place as his foundation, she naturally had the obligation to take care of the remaining detailed affairs.

In the afternoon.

Jiang Xiaoci was busy organizing the building, Lin Yue was out exploring, and Li Ya was still in the research room working on the technology tree project.

In the whole residential building, only Yi Bai was left with nothing to do.

"It really feels a bit like an emperor."

Yi Bai took a nap in bed, feeling the cool air coming from the freezer. He sighed: "I'm just in charge of giving orders, and the talents are responsible for making them happen."

"This feeling is really good."

In a daze after a full meal, Yi Bai slept for a while.

When he woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

This empty and idle time as a homebody was really hard to kill. After all, there were no computers or mobile phones for entertainment now. Yi Bai could only find something new to pass the time.

"Let's check the trading platform. See if I can buy some more bullets."

Yi Bai opened the information interface of the shelter. Just when he was about to open the trading platform, he suddenly found that there were many new ranking lists in today's shelter ranking module.

Besides the Shelter Level Ranking, Talent Ranking, and Exploration Task Ranking.

There were also rankings such as Shelter Material Reserve Ranking (only counting the rewards from dispatch tasks), Destroyed Shelter (Killing Enemies) Ranking, Shelter Equipment Item Ranking (only counting shelter equipment), Survival Point Ranking...

There were so many ranking lists. Looking at them, there were at least a dozen.

Yi Bai took a glance and found that he actually occupied the first place in five ranking lists!

They were the first in the Talent Ranking, the first in the Level Ranking, the first in the Exploration Task Ranking, the first in the Material Reserve Ranking, and the first in the Equipment Ranking.

"Am I really that good?"

Yi Bai blinked. For the first time, he realized that his shelter was actually so strong!

It has been less than a week since the first round of the doomsday started, and he has already won the first place in five ranking lists!

The more ranking lists one is on, the better.

Because after the current round of the doomsday ends, the mysterious existence will give rewards according to the ranking list positions.

The higher the position, the better the reward and the easier it is to form a huge advantage like a snowball.

"Well... Let's look at the other ranking lists."

"Wow, the first place in the Killing Enemies Ranking is really too exaggerated!"

Yi Bai widened his eyes. He saw that the data information of the first place in the Killing Enemies Ranking showed [161 Shelters Destroyed]!

This ranking list is almost like the PK ranking in a game.

Anyone who can be on this list is a combat maniac.

But you know, this is the real world. Although there is a doomsday game mechanism, the people killed are also living humans.

Destroying 161 shelters means that this person has killed at least 161 people, or maybe even more.

"It has only been a few days since the doomsday started, and so many people have been killed. I don't believe that all the people you met were enemies."

Yi Bai muttered: "Probably, this is a serial killer. Whether it is for fun or to get more survival points in this way, it means that this person is extremely dangerous!"

Yi Bai was vigilant and firmly remembered the name of the first place in the Killing Enemies Ranking in his heart.

[White Bear Shelter].

A rather cute name, but what this guy has done is not cute at all!

"What I'm seeing now is only the city regional ranking list. I don't know the situation in the whole country or even the world."

"But if we can infer from the small to the large, since there is such a serial killer in Jinling City, other places may not be much better."

"This is really the doomsday... Natural disasters are rampant, and there are also many man-made disasters. It's so difficult."

Yi Bai shook his head. At the same time, he also saw his own position. He was ranked 53,688th in the Killing Enemies Ranking and had destroyed 1 shelter.

This means that at least more than 50,000 people have destroyed other people's shelters.

This is just the beginning. This number will definitely increase continuously in the future.

"Let's look at the point ranking list. Well, I'm ranked... Damn! After 100,000! The specific position is not counted!"

Yi Bai widened his eyes and couldn't help but roll them.

After some consumption, his survival points, which were several thousand, were only left with a mere 6 points.

6 points are really too few, but Yi Bai didn't think it would be ranked in such a terrifying ranking range after 100,000.

"Could it be that there are at least 100,000 survivors in the whole city who have mastered the method of obtaining points?"

"They either have talents or get points in other ways."

Yi Bai held his chin and took a look at the first place in the point ranking list.

[White Bear Shelter]: Current points are 12,620.

More than 12,000 survival points!

If we count the points he might have spent, this guy's cumulative point harvest is very likely to have exceeded the 20,000 mark!

"This is really a fierce person. Judging from the number of shelters he destroyed, he has at least 16,000 points."

"Now his ranking data is less than this, which means he has spent some. His strength is definitely not to be underestimated."

Yi Bai frowned. There is such a serial killer in the city, and we don't even know the specific signs. This is really a headache.

Especially for Yi Bai, who is cautious. He has already felt that the familiar sense of oppression has come back.

The sense of ease he had just experienced for less than a day disappeared immediately, and instead, a strong sense of crisis was still lingering in his heart.

"This guy has so many points, but the shelter level is still level 0... This is the most dangerous situation!"

"Someone who has mastered so many points can't meet the upgrade conditions of the shelter? Impossible! He must be deliberately suppressing the shelter level!"

"He has other trump cards that others don't know... Where is this guy? He shouldn't be very close to me, right?"
