Simultaneously, Jeremy also replied back with a bright smile towards the three people,


    "Morning, guys. My night was not that bad, though, albeit my back still feels a bit stiff from sleeping on such a hard bed."


    Obviously, Jeremy lied through his teeth as he hadn''t slept even a single secondst night.


    "Right? I also think the same as you. The damned bed..." replied the man who had asked Jeremy earlier.


    Meanwhile, the woman standing on the sideline suddenly spoke up to the other two,


    "How about we introduce ourselves to him? I think we haven''t had a chance to introduce ourselves properly yesterday."


    "Good idea..." said the man who had kept quiet earlier.


    "Let''s start with me then. My name is Farrell Kain; you can call me Farrell."


    The talkative man, Farrell, introduced himself to Jeremy as the former reached his hand out for a handshake.


    "I think you guys have already known my name; anyway, I''m Tommy as of Tommy Samson. Nice to meet you..."


    Having reached out his hand to shake with Farrell, Jeremy introduced himself again as a formality.


    Afterward, the other two people also introduced themselves to Jeremy, the same as Farrell.


    Jeremy came to know that the woman who looked to be in herte 20s was Alita, whereas the quiet man with a tall feature was Henry.


    Meanwhile, Farrell looked to be around the same age as Jeremy, which was around twenty or so years. However, the man looked to be a bit muscr with his stout body build.


    The four started talking and chitchatting about some random topics as the scout team members came to this appointed ce one by one. Whenever someone arrived, they would introduce themself and get acquainted with Jeremy.


    The atmosphere started bing livelier and livelier as more people came to join in the fun.


    Until ten minutester, a total of ten people finally gathered together, readying tomence a meeting. After everyone came thoroughly, Jeremy knew pretty much everyone''s names by now.


    "Alright, guys..." Morgan suddenly spoke up after seeing everyone was here.


    The lively atmosphere promptly died down, and everyone''s attention was put on Morgan, listening to his following words.


    "As per the agreements with Kahn, we will have a one-day break today because we had fought hard and lost many people yesterday."


    Morgan paused briefly before proceeding with the main topic,


    "The reason why I call upon a meeting with you guys is that the same as thest time, we will get new members into our group to make up for yesterday''s loss."


    Everyone could pretty much guess this part already because two days ago, they had also lost somerades in a skirmish with the kenkus.


    In fact, four people within the group right now were added to the team just two days ago. They came from another scout team that was disintegrated apart;ter, those members were integrated into other teams ordingly.


    Thus, it was not a surprise for everyone to hear that new members would join their team soon.


    "As you guys know, our human camp consists of 50% construction teams, 30% scout teams, and thest 20% for the other groups, which have the duties of maintaining various functions within our camp."


    Upon hearing those words, many people nodded their heads in understanding; some wondered why Morgan raised such a topic out of nowhere.


    After seeing everyone''s reactions, Morgan continued his speech,


    "However, in the past three days, we''ve lost too many scout team members, subsequently causing the camp tock in the scouting aspect. So, Kahn and every team leader, including me, havee to an agreement this morning that... we will recruit more scout members from the construction teams."


    "What?"


    "Are you sure they wille?"


    "Hmm..."


    "I don''t think those weak-minded people will join us..."


    Many people started murmuring to each other after hearing Morgan''s notion of recruiting people from the construction teams. Those constructors were the cowardly type who didn''t dare to fight with their lives on the line after all.


    In the end, everyone knew that the initial 900 scout members had now reduced to less than 500, which was considered less than the concept of 30% scout teams. To be frank, there were roughly 2,000 surviving humans right now, which denoted 30% of the 2,000 were precisely 600 people.


    That meant they stillcked at least 100 people to add to various scout teams to make up for the loss from the battles.


    "I know it is bad news for us, but we don''t have any other choice..." said Morgan after seeing some people furrowing their eyebrows in deep thought before continuing,


    "As you know, each team consists of exactly twenty people. The good thing is that we only have to recruit five people into our team, as for the other five, they will be added to our team by a disintegrated team."


    "The reason we can get five people from that team is that...st night, the eleventh team, which hade back after us, was met with a total defeat, retreating with only six survivors caused by the enemy''s scout team. So, five of those six people wille to our team, whereas thest one will go to another team."


    After Morgan finished his piece, people digested his words for a moment before someone eventually spoke up,


    "I think finding just five people shouldn''t be a problem..."


    "Yeah, I know one or two people that might be interested in joining us."


    "Hmm... I will try inviting a person from my first stage; he is pretty good at fighting."


    "That''s great..."


    "Let''s do that."


    People started giving out their opinions and thoughts after hearing Morgan''s words. After all, recruiting five people shouldn''t be that hard for them.


    "Alright, guys. Thank you for your understanding and co-operation..."


    Morgan''s voice was heard again, interrupting the chatting people, causing those people''s attention to shift back to him once again.


    After seeing everyone''s attention was on him, Morgan continued,


    "There are still two more things for you guys to take note of. First of all, today is supposed to be our rest day... However, as you have heard from me earlier that there is not enough scouting force right now, so Kahn and the team leaders have agreed to let anyone file for a special mission if they want to."


    "It simply means if you are too bored and want to go out for another mission today, you can go to Kahn''s house and request to join another team. Nheless, the request must be made within 8:30 a.m. because every scout team will depart at exactly 9 a.m."


    Having heard so, most people could only shake their heads with an exhausted expression as they were too tired to go on for another mission right now. That was... except for Jeremy, for he had another thought in mind.


    "What is thest topic?" asked someone from within the team.


    After hearing the guy''s words, Morgan promptly took a deep breath before replying with a grave expression,


    "Thest topic is about the wolf monster..."


    Morgan ended thest two words with a heavy voice.
