Chapter 326 They Don’t Even Consider Us as Human Beings!

Early next morning.

Grandma Cheng got up early as usual.

Although there is no need to work in the planting area today, breakfast in the canteen still needs to be prepared.

In the past, she only had to cook, but today she had nothing to do, so she came to the kitchen to help.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw about a dozen kitchen helpers gathered around the stove.

"Morning, boys."

Grandma Cheng greeted her warmly, but received no response.

This made her curious, so she slowly walked into the crowd to check.

"What are you talking about, so attentive?"

When the helpers realized that the person coming was Grandma Cheng, they all greeted:

"It's grandma. She was too absorbed in reading the news just now and didn't pay attention..."

"Grandma, what are your plans? Do you want to leave the shelter for a while?"

"Hey, it's too late to leave the shelter now. There are less than 5 hours until 12 noon. Where can I hide?"

"That's true, but it's better to leave than to stay in the shelter and wait to die..."

Everyone was giggling, and Grandma Cheng was confused:

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word about hiding and leaving the shelter..."

"Grandma, didn't you read the news on the public channel?" One of the young men with yellow hair casually clicked twice on the data panel and presented it to Grandma Cheng:

"Since midnight yesterday, people have been sending out messages one after another, saying that the rift will erupt at 12 noon today."

"Public channel?" Grandma Cheng's eyes were filled with confusion.

She naturally knows the various functions of the data panel and has sent several messages on the public channel.

But later, because the news on it was updated too quickly, and because she was old, her eyes would get dazzled when reading for a long time, and she seldom opened it after that.

For this old woman, the biggest role of the data panel is to contact her granddaughter, and it has no other use.

Judging from the performance of these helpers, it seems that she has missed something important?

"Young man, tell grandma quickly, what happened?"

The young man with yellow hair looked careless, but he was not indifferent to the old woman's request for help.

In a few words, the content on the public chat channel was summarized.

I thought Grandma Cheng would be as panicked as them,

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the old woman laughed without any worry:

"Didn't the head of the Lin family come to the cafeteria to talk about this news during dinner last night? Look at how panicked you are."

Seeing that the old woman had not realized the seriousness of the matter, Huang Mao immediately explained:

"Grandma, the Lin family announced the news of the rift breaking out last night."

"But Lin Tianxia didn't say that when the rift breaks out, the more players there are in the shelter, the more monsters will be attracted!"

"The chat channel released news yesterday that other shelters are trying to spread out the population and spread the pressure as much as possible."

"But our shelter gathers all civilian players together!"

"Hey, is that the reason?" Grandma Cheng still smiled:

"Every shelter has its own response method. The Lin family must have gathered us all to better protect us."

"Hey, grandma!" After hearing this, the other helpers also joined the explanation team:

"What are you protecting? Does the Lin family have the strength?"

"Which of the other shelters doesn't have high walls and heavy machine guns on the walls?"

"Our shelter is surrounded by a broken barbed wire fence!"

"Not to mention that I can't withstand the charge of those monsters when the rift breaks out. Even I, a level 1 player, can break a big hole in it with my bare hands..."

"This..." Grandma Cheng was speechless for a moment, and the smile on her face gradually faded:

"Aren't there still children of the Lin family... They are of a very high level and have many powerful props. It shouldn't be a problem to withstand those monsters, right?"

"What are you trying to hold up? They can't hold it up!" Another fat man said in a huff. He seemed to have some breathing problems:

"As far as I know, the Lin family is just a 'human-level' family and is not strong at all!"

"I estimate that they may not even be able to withstand the waves of insects before the rift breaks out!"

"What is a 'human-level' family?" Grandma Cheng looked confused again.

"Hey, it's just..." The fat man looked around and finally picked up a bone chopping knife and a small colander.

He raised the small colander in front of the old woman:

"This is the Lin family, the 'human-level' family."

Seeing the old woman nodding, he raised the bone-chopping steel knife in his hand:

"This is the 'earth level' which is ten times stronger than the 'human level'!"

After the old woman nodded again, the fat man put the colander on the chopping board, raised the steel knife and chopped it hard!

The already fragile colander was cut in half in an instant and fell to the ground with a clang.

In the old woman's slightly frightened eyes, the fat man gasped and explained:

"The 'earth-level' families, which are tens of thousands of times stronger than the 'human-level' ones, are fully prepared for this rift explosion."

"They dispersed the population of the shelter, mobilized a large number of high-power players to assist in defense, built high city walls, and deployed heavy-fire machine guns..."

"But what about the Lin family?"

"Until the day before the rift broke out, we were allowed to farm collectively!"

Grandma Cheng had deep wrinkles on her face and murmured: "Are you trying to say... that the Lin family was actually completely unprepared for this rift?"

"It's not that I'm unprepared." The yellow-haired young man added with a wry smile:

"At least the Lin family has brought us useless civilian players together."

"That's right, I said the Lin family must have a way..." Grandma Cheng smiled again.

But seeing that none of the helpers around were smiling, she immediately realized that something was wrong.

"The Lin family used us as bait!" The fat man panted:

"The entire central shelter, so many civilian players, can attract a large number of monsters!"

"After those monsters are full, they will no longer pose a threat to the Lin family."

"For the Lin family, the loss is just useless civilian players like us."

"They don't treat us as human beings at all!"

The more Grandma Cheng listened, the more she felt something was wrong, and she couldn't help but frowned and asked:

"These...are all your own inferences?"

The fat man was originally very emotional, but was suddenly interrupted by the old woman, and subconsciously told the truth:

"How can I have such a smart brain? It's the old man Yang who lives with me. Teacher."

"He and other teachers stayed up all night, and only then did they see through the Lin family's conspiracy based on clues!"

"Teacher..." Grandma Cheng was very surprised, but still didn't quite believe it:

"Maybe the Lin family really has a way to withstand the monsters produced by the rift explosion, and everything is just a misunderstanding?"

The fat man waved his fat hand and was very sure:

"Impossible, compared to the Lin family, I believe in the analysis of the teachers more!"

"They are all smart people, and the judgment of smart people cannot be wrong!"

At this point, Grandma Cheng finally wavered in her position and asked a little worriedly:

"If what you said is true, then what should we do next?"
