Chapter 190 is a qualified watchdog.

As Chen Yu's voice fell,

only the crackling of the fire remained. The surroundings were silent, and everyone was stunned.

"Wha... what? Seventy percent of the building materials? Handed over to you?"

"Are you kidding? You're asking for seventy percent right off the bat?!"

"Aren't you helping us protect our pets? Why are you charging us?"

Someone raised a question and immediately gained a large number of supporters!

Chen Yu spoke indifferently, "I'm helping you protect them, so shouldn't you show some appreciation? I'm not running a charity. Do you think you can protect your pets yourselves?"

"But, but seventy percent is too much!"

"We work hard all day digging, and we only keep thirty percent?"

"You... you're even more black-hearted than a capitalist!"

Another person questioned him, and the crowd was furious!

Chen Yu shook his head, "Capitalist? I'm not that kind! Today's deal, you have to do it whether you want to or not. After all, I still need them to attract Seaweed to level up Water Bubble..."

Everyone: "..."

He even said his inner thoughts out loud so blatantly.

This guy really doesn't care about anyone at all.

Pei Yuanheng stood not far away, his expression calm.

Cheng Minglang whispered, "Officer Pei, this guy is too arrogant..."

Captain Zhou Ting directly ordered, "Prepare to start mining."

A girl in the team asked, "Captain Zhou! Are we really giving him 70%? That's too much!"

Captain Zhou Ting said helplessly, "If it doesn't work, why don't you go negotiate with him?"

The girl quickly backed away, "Uh, no thanks, no thanks. He looks so scary!"

However, Chen Yu suddenly turned his head, "By the way, everyone from the military district and the research team, you don't have to hand over your building materials, and you can take your pets away."

"?"

Everyone was puzzled!

Chen Yu explained, "If our Seventh Island wants to win, we can't just rely on Water Bubble alone. Lava Guardian Lizard and Annual Ring Beetle are qualified to be substitutes."

"Substitutes?"

"You're saying S-rank and A-rank pets should be substitutes for your D-rank?"

"Shh! Do you want to die?"

The crowd was hesitant, but some were still unconvinced!

This person was Zhang Tianlang. He roared, "Chen Yu! You're going too far! That D-rank pet of yours won't be useful no matter how much it eats! Why should we use our hard-earned money to support a piece of trash?"

With one person resisting, more followed immediately!

The roar of nearly a hundred people was still quite terrifying!

"Exactly! A D-rank is still a D-rank no matter how much it eats!"

"If all the building materials we hand over are fed to it, can it work miracles?"

"You can kill pets, but can you kill this many people?"

The voices grew louder and more frequent, and some even asked Pei Yuanheng to uphold justice!

But Pei Yuanheng obviously wouldn't do that. He just waved his hand and let his people get to work!

Seeing no one stopping him, Zhang Tianlang grew bolder, "Chen Yu! You've incurred public wrath! It's not just me saying this! Everyone thinks so! What right do you have..."

Chen Yu waved his hand, interrupting him.

He reached into his coat and unhurriedly pulled out a golden card that shimmered with a dull luster in the firelight.

The crowd fell silent for a moment.

Then someone recognized it.

"Wait, holy crap, a golden body card?!"

"That's a golden body card! It bypasses the rules and grants immunity to all damage!"

"I recognize it too, I got one before!"

Among the hundred people, many were knowledgeable. Someone immediately recognized the card's origin and function!

The voices shifted from shock to fear!

What did this mean? It meant he could cut down any unlucky person in the crowd at any time!

Zhang Tianlang's face also changed, "Damn it, isn't the inventory locked?!"

Chen Yu flipped the golden body card between his fingers, "To be honest, I have quite a few golden body cards. Killing all of you wouldn't be difficult. It all depends on whether I want to or not."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over their faces one by one, finally landing on Zhang Tianlang.

"Want to try?"

Zhang Tianlang's Adam's apple bobbed, "I... I won't try. Whoever wants to try, go ahead..."

After saying that, he hurriedly scrambled back to his team.

Everyone looked at each other, the atmosphere suddenly becoming silent and awkward.

Chen Yu slowly retracted the golden body card, "Now, you can go and mine my building materials."

In reality, where would Chen Yu get many golden body cards?

He only had this one card in his pocket!

The existence of this card was just a habit of Chen Yu's!

Ever since the 181 golden body cards were credited, he had always kept one card in his pocket just in case!

Many times, people saw him with his hands in his pockets, seemingly acting cool, but that wasn't the case!

He was just gripping the golden body card, ready to attack or dodge at any moment!

But in the current situation, Chen Yu naturally wouldn't reveal the number of golden body cards. As long as they were wary, a steady stream of building materials would flow into his pocket!

After all, no one dared to bet on how many there were, and no one wanted to be the one cut down!

"I'm going to rest, going to sleep!"

Zhang Tianlang waved his hand, leading his teammates back to sleep.

Yellow Hair was stunned and quickly followed, "Boss, what about the building materials..."

"We'll talk tomorrow! Sleep first!"

Zhang Tianlang quickened his pace, "Anyway, it's not like I'm working for myself, what's the rush? Just slack off!"

Others were the same, one after another giving up.

"Handing over 70%, why should I mine so much?"

"Mining more just benefits others, am I stupid?"

"Rest, rest. We'll talk tomorrow."

More and more people were about to disperse. Chen Yu shouted, "The mission only lasts a few days. Rest my ass! Everyone, pull an all-nighter to gather building materials!"

A rustling sound rose from the crowd, and some people stood up grumbling.

"What building materials are we mining in the middle of the night?"

"Yeah, can't we do it during the day? Does it have to be now?"

"Isn't this pure exploitation!"

Chen Yu ignored the complaints, turned around, and tilted his chin toward the girls.

"The Dense Forest Area, Ore Vein Area, Camp Area, Old Warehouse, Beach, Wreckage Area, and Deep Pool—the task of supervising will be left to you. No one is allowed to be lazy."

The girls immediately nodded!

Wang Mengmeng's eyes lit up, "Alright! Don't worry, Brother Chen Yu. I have the best eyesight; I'll see anyone slacking off immediately! I'll keep a strict record of them!"

Chen Yu: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Half an hour later, by Chen Yu's treehouse, the crowd finally dispersed!

Before him, only a large group of pets left behind and Sun Zhiyuan remained!

Sun Zhiyuan coughed, "Ahem, car owner lord, should I go accompany Teacher Liu and Mengyao to supervise?"

Chen Yu shook his head, "No need. Your Talent is decent, and you're a qualified watchdog. I'm planning to rest for a bit. If any monsters approach the pets, just drive them away."

Having said that, without waiting for Sun Zhiyuan's reply, Chen Yu had already taken Water Bubble and returned to the treehouse.

Sun Zhiyuan's mouth twitched, "Uh, okay."

His sense of insecurity grew stronger. Having roamed the underworld for many years, he always felt that Chen Yu treated him differently from the others.

Something was wrong.

But he couldn't put his finger on exactly what was wrong.
