"I grew so much grain, I don't want to serve people. Why should I?"

Saying his brother had no conscience?

Hai Ji, who was pulling up radishes, immediately put them down, ready to let Zhang Yi enjoy torment and torture.

Hai Ji became more and more skilled at inflicting torture. If Ning Shuang hadn't been behaving herself recently, Hai Ji would have experimented on her.

Chen Luo stopped Hai Ji and chuckled, "Is that so? You've contributed a lot. Let me calculate it with you."

"Each month, you can grow about 350 jin (approximately 175 kg) of grain, but you natural-types consume an average of about 150 jin (approximately 75 kg) of resources each month."

Zhang Yi's eyes were red. "That's still 200 jin (approximately 100 kg) extra! You calculate how much grain I've contributed to the base in a year and a half."

Chen Luo sneered, "Is that what you grew? That's because of the improved seeds that Meng Yin developed, increasing the yield. If you grew them yourselves, it would barely be enough for your own consumption."

"If we're talking about contributions, it's Meng Yin's, not yours."

"The base also provides you with various recreational facilities and protects your safety. Do I owe you anything?"

"Although I don't have much conscience, I still have a little."

"You're the first to publicly insult the leader, Chen Guang, drag her away."

Chen Guang sighed. She couldn't see the situation clearly. That's right, these natural-types had never seen the boss's ruthlessness.

Otherwise, how would they dare say such things?

There's no such thing as expulsion from the base, so what else could be done?

Chen Guang shook his head and dragged Zhang Yi away.

Meng Yin hugged Chen Luo's arm and pleaded, "Big brother, give these people another chance, let them plant once more, maybe they can grow something?"

Chen Luo shook off Meng Yin's hand and said fiercely.

"Now let me talk about you. They ended up like this partly because of you."

Meng Yin stared blankly at Chen Luo. How could it be because of me?

Chen Luo felt he should stimulate Meng Yin a little. She was always laughing and carefree, like a salted fish. Maybe it would have a miraculous effect?

"Look at you, after planting every day, you run to the internet cafe to play games. You feel a sense of accomplishment when a bunch of people call you 'Big Head Sister', right?"

"If you have the time, wouldn't it be better to do more research?"

"Do you know how much I expect from you? Didn't the level-nine natural-type crystal that the members brought back last time go to you?"

"Ask your sister Shu Yun, sister Tian Zhu, sister Xiong, have I ever given them level-nine crystals?"

"But you, you're carefree all day long, and you play whenever you get the chance. You even often play 'Dog Cub'. Even 'Dog Cub' knows to go out and train all day long."

"Instead of researching the planting system properly, you're researching the transformation system. Are you suited for that? It's been so long, can you transform back?"

Meng Yin wanted to say that she had learned it a few days ago, but she didn't dare.

Chen Luo continued, "If you can research seeds that can grow vegetables even with level four or five natural-type abilities, or even seeds that ordinary people can plant, would these natural-types need to do logistics?"

"Don't you think it's partly your fault?"

Chen Luo gave Xiao Yu a look, then coldly left.

Turning his face, Chen Luo thought to himself, 'Was that too harsh? Making it seem like Meng Yin caused the famine.'

'Forget it, great strength creates miracles.'

Chen Luo didn't expect Meng Yin to improve seeds that ordinary people could plant.

If she could, there would be no famine, and the unsolvable contradiction between Dawn City and other survivors could be basically resolved.

After Chen Luo left, Xiao Yu quickly comforted Meng Yin, who was crying and gasping for breath.

Meng Yin was very sad. Chen Luo had never been so strict with her. She was indeed a little too playful.

"Waaah, does big brother mean I'm useless?"

Zhao Ziyi thought about it, and the summary was worse than a dog, but although Zhao Ziyi was a little silly, she didn't say it at this time.

Zhao Ziyi and Xiao Yu each took one of Meng Yin's arms and returned to the room with her, crying.

Meng Yin cried, "I must research seeds that ordinary people can plant!"

Zhao Ziyi asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to build an archer legion?"

"Waaah, playing with things makes one lose their ambition, I won't build it anymore."

Meng Yin started researching with bubbles coming out of her nose. Mutant plants can grow wildly without natural-type abilities, which gave her inspiration.

If the two could be successfully hybridized, maybe a yield of ten thousand *jin* per *mu* wouldn't be a dream, and ordinary people could grow them.

Chen Luo was very gratified. If Meng Yin was hit too hard and became depressed, she would be useless.

He had to go out tomorrow.

There was no way around it, he had to give Da Zhuang the antidote, otherwise, he would be exposed.

Chen Luo braced himself and prepared to take the risk. Wasn't going out without Void Walk risky?

Mi Fan had to cast a divination for me before I dared to go out.

He still hadn't found the *Shixin Cao* (Heart-Eating Grass) to use on Da Zhuang.

Da Zhuang and Jing Ji felt that they should search their subordinates from time to time to see if they were hiding crystals.

Level-seven crystals were unnecessary; they should give their subordinates a way to survive. Level-eight crystals should be taken depending on the situation, and level-nine crystals had to be collected.

Da Zhuang felt that this routine was vaguely familiar, as if that's how big brother treated me.

Da Zhuang sighed. In the end, he had become the person he once hated.

Da Zhuang's surprise attack caught his subordinates off guard.

However, basically no subordinate had crystals above level eight, or rather, they had no crystals at all.

But this frightened a short, fat zombie. Why was big brother doing a sneak attack?

What should I do? I only have one high-level crystal. If big brother finds out, will he tear me apart?

They were about to search the short, fat zombie, and he was anxious to death.

But he couldn't run away. If he ran away at this time, everyone would know there was something wrong.

The short, fat zombie gritted his teeth, turned around, took out the crystal, and stuffed it into his mouth.

He didn't know what the consequences would be, but he felt it wasn't a big deal, it was better than being found by big brother.

But Jing Ji saw it.

Jing Ji quietly told Da Zhuang, Da Zhuang's face hardened, and he came to the short, fat zombie and grabbed his neck.

"Dwarf, you're very brave."

The dwarf devoured an ice-type crystal. The energy was too vast, and the energy constantly emitted by the crystal made his body feel like it was about to explode.

The dwarf's body trembled violently, and his face was twisted.

Da Zhuang was stunned for a moment. This appearance was somewhat familiar.

The scene when Da Zhuang was poisoned, Da Zhuang remembered it clearly, how could he forget it?

The impression was too deep.

That's how I became big brother's undercover agent.

Da Zhuang didn't question the dwarf about hiding the crystal, but asked, "How does your body feel?"

The dwarf painfully said, "My body is swollen and painful, like it's about to explode, big brother, I was wrong, I won't hide crystals next time."

Da Zhuang blankly put down the dwarf.

The last time he encountered Jing Ji, Da Zhuang forcibly absorbed a level-nine crystal, and the pain was similar to the poison that big brother gave him.

No, it couldn't be said to be similar, it could only be said to be exactly the same.

The antidote that big brother gave was a bit like a mud pill that he rubbed off his body when he was bored.

In Da Zhuang's nearly two years of experience, he had never seen or heard of any poison that required regular doses of antidote.

And it could still have an effect on himself, who was about to reach level ten.

Da Zhuang stuffed a crystal into his mouth, this taste, this feeling.

Suddenly, Da Zhuang's eyes were red, and he roared to the sky.

"You're lying to me, you're lying to me."

...

Tomorrow, Chen Luo and Da Zhuang will have a conclusion. Let's see how Chen Luo fooled Da Zhuang.

October is over, another month without rest. Everyone, look at the book page, how many consecutive days have we updated? Although we update less, we update steadily.
