In the apocalypse, I hoarded goods and handed over my storage space to the government.

"Mo Yun," Su Ran said.

"Yes." Mo Yun's fingertips tapped rapidly on the control panel.

The home screen switches instantly.

A blood-red line graph shot into the sky, capturing everyone's attention.

"This is the backend data after the headquarters opened the simulated registration system this afternoon."

Su Ran put down her coffee cup and tapped her knuckles on the table.

"Seven hours. The number of registered civilian bounty hunter teams worldwide has exceeded 20,000. The number of participants has exceeded 150,000."

150,000!

This number struck like a hammer blow to the hearts of all foreign leaders.

"Currently, 412 teams have submitted second-tier or higher crystal cores and successfully exchanged them for standard crystal energy weapons."

Su Ran's gaze was sharp as a knife, sweeping across the entire room.

"Richard, how many Awakened Ones do you have under your command?"

Richard's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth as he answered, "Two hundred men."

"Alexander, and you?"

"One...one hundred and thirty people."

Su Ran gave a cold laugh.

"The total number is less than five hundred."

Do you know what these 150,000 ordinary people wielding Great Xia weapons mean?

Su Ran stood up, placed her hands on the table, and looked down at the camera with an extremely imposing presence.

"This means that after the nuclear winter arrives, humanity will have the strength to fight against 250,000 Tier 3 mutated beasts!"

"What is your camp order? What is your rule?"

Su Ran's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"The Great Xia Dynasty has poured massive resources into you, providing you with the highest-grade crystal core extract and weapons of the highest authority, not so that you can become warlords or local tyrants!"

"We want the lives of third-tier monsters!"

Su Ran's icy voice echoed in the conference room.

Several foreign leaders broke out in a cold sweat, and none of them dared to speak.

They were well aware of the man's methods.

Clean food and high-end weapons production lines are all in the hands of Great Xia.

Without supplies, they would hardly survive a month in the nuclear winter.

"But Consultant Su..."

Richard suppressed his anger.

"Ordinary people have extremely poor tactical skills. Even if they have weapons, they would just be throwing their lives away against a third-tier opponent."

This pointless waste…

"Therefore, the Great Xia Dynasty introduced a mixed-arms plan."

Su Ran interrupted him directly.

Mo Yun promptly retrieved the detailed rules and distributed them to everyone's terminals.

"You have two days."

Su Ran's tone left no room for argument.

"Disband the teams of awakened individuals with average abilities."

Recruit from the general public! Pick from among the bounty hunters!

A new hunting squad will be formed, centered around two Awakened Ones and comprised of ten fully armed elite ordinary soldiers.

"Da Xia will provide your team with tactical guidance and minimum support."

Whoever recruits more people and kills more Tier 3 monsters will receive a larger supply quota for their camp.

Su Ran sat back down in her chair, her gaze fixed intently on Richard.

"Or, you can become the alpha wolves of this pack and lead them to tear the monsters outside apart."

"Or, watch them take the crystal energy heavy machine guns that Great Xia got in exchange and turn your current camp upside down."

"Choose for yourself."

A fatal choice.

Richard clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white.

He glanced at the chart showing soaring registration data, then at Su Ran's expressionless face.

The Great Xia is using the survival instinct of the lower-level survivors to force these high-level awakened individuals to fight desperately.

If we don't fight, we won't even be able to keep our current position.

"I see."

Richard took a deep breath and lowered his head.

"North American camps will unconditionally implement the headquarters' mixed-unit plan."

"European campsite seconded."

Alexander sighed in despair.

As the dominoes fell, the remaining foreign leaders all pledged their allegiance.
