“It’s not like I can’t give him a chance!”
Lin Ye put down the Venomous Zombie’s file, and a glint flashed across his eyes.
Loyalty was irreversible. No matter what that guy was thinking, as long as he offered 100% loyalty, he would become one of them.
He was never stingy towards his own people.
After staying in the archive for a while more and realizing that there was no other value of use, Nicole called Lin Ye down for mealtime.
Breakfast was a scrumptious one. Milk egg drop soup and the underworld’s version of steamed buns with pork. There was also a bowl of beef bone soup.
To be honest, the taste was much better than yesterday and the day before.
After all, as an Advanced chef, her innate capabilities were clear. Even in this world where seasoning was scarce, the food she made was still awesome.
However, the Lin Ye today was not the same as yesterday. With his Heart’s Web talent upgraded to Level 6 this morning, his five senses had been strengthened. His taste buds became extremely picky.
“Mm, there’s 1g too much salt, a little over the tolerance limit of the body. The same goes for the milk egg drop soup. There’s 5g too much lard. Although it tastes softer and smoother, eating too much will increase your weight and won’t be good for your health.”
“For the steamed buns with pork, the buns are a little hard but this can’t be helped since those came from a treasure chest. Who knows if those were processed? On the other hand, the pork wasn’t marinated sufficiently long and was too dry. It didn’t meld perfectly with the cat-eared sauce.”
“For the entire course, I would give it a 7 point which is already not bad.”
Lin Ye chewed as he critiqued the food.
“I will work hard and strive to get a perfect score from the lord as soon as possible!”
Chef Nicole’s eyes welled with tears. She might have improved, but her lord was improving faster.
Not being able to keep up with her lord’s progress was a bad sign.
With his lord’s wealth, he might even recruit the mortal enemies of the cat-eared chefs in the future.
That was the Sanzhi clan which was given the title of gourmet by the underworld. It was ranked alongside the cat-eared chefs as the main chefs in the underworld.
The threat was too great.
Therefore, at this moment, not only was the female chef not discouraged, she even felt extremely motivated.
All their beliefs melded together: No matter what, they must not let the Sanzhi clan replace the status of cat-eared chefs in this territory!
“Nicole, don’t worry. You were the first to follow me. Naturally, you will get your share of the benefits. If I get the recipe of Earth’s eight greatest menus when I open a treasure chest, you’ll be the first one I reward that too,” Lin Ye said with a smile.
He already dropped a Chinese dictionary and playboy’s photobook so he was already immune to weird drops. It should be possible for recipes to drop as well.
After a few days of contact with his people, he had already understood the rules for the advancement of the various major groups.
The advancement of native workers required them to build a large number of buildings. Their experience points came from construction.
Following that reasoning, soldiers gained experience points from training and battles.
Of course, they were comparatively more complicated and had higher demands for their innate talent.
For those with stronger innate talents, their experience would increase faster compared to ordinary soldiers even with the same duration and training intensity.
That point was reflected in Tru.
Although the other recruits complained that Tru was the lord’s lackey and had benefited most from the lord’s resources, why didn’t they use their brains a little?
Tru was the young master of a clan after all. In their world where bloodline culture was rich, his combat talent could definitely be ranked amongst the top in his clan.
Otherwise, he would not have reached the peak of Class 2 so quickly.
Seeing how hardworking he was, he would reward him with a few Class 3 and 4 upgrade scrolls later to see if he could become the first Class 4 soldier in the territory.
With that in mind, he dismissed Nicole and the joyful breakfast time passed.
The thousands of soldiers outside had long since finished their meals. In terms of efficiency in cleaning their meals up, they far surpassed Lin Ye, even licking the soup pot dry.
It was evident that the culinary skills of the cat-eared chefs were still popular among the people of the underworld.
With good food and good rest,
Under the morning sun, satisfied smiles appeared on everyone’s faces, increasing their loyalty towards Lin Ye by about 1%.

The average was currently 93%!
“Not bad.” The corners of Lin Ye’s lips curled up into a smile.
He had already sensed that the various soldiers had gained a stronger sense of belonging to their territory.
In just one morning, another 40 plus people became loyalists.
In a while, he could reward them for their contributions and excite them a little. In that way, he could initiate a large-scale leveling of his people.
The number of Class 2 and 3 soldiers increased.
The Class 3 Protector’s Armor and Class 3 New Moon Battleaxe that dropped last night would be useful.
After lunch, Ron reported the numbers which he had gathered from the warehouse to Lin Ye.
Lin Ye took a look and instructed him to move all the treasures onto the platform.
“Wow, so much purple tier equipment!”
“I know those. They are early-stage Class 3 Protector’s Armor and a mid-stage Class 3 New Moon Battleaxe produced by Ultima City!”
“Oh my god, those golden scrolls at the back are all upgrade scrolls, right? There are so many of them. There seem to be ones with Class 3 and 4 runes too!”
“It’s not just the upgrade scroll. If you look further behind, could that porcelain bottle contain Body Strengthening Pills?!”
“Oh my god, the lord is too generous!”
“My lord, I love you. Give it to me, give it to me please!”
Below the platform, the citizens of the underworld who had just finished their breakfast and were chatting suddenly fell into a frenzy.
All of them squeezed under the platform with flushed faces.
Just like those crazy die-hard fans on Earth who attended their idols’ concerts, they cheered crazily.
“Silence!” Lin Ye waved his hand.
With what happened last time, even the new recruits did not dare to go against the rules.
Since the Lord had spoken, they had to obey.
Whoosh—
The crowd immediately fell silent. Even though their faces were flushed red and wished that they could rush up to the platform and snatch all the equipment and upgrade scrolls.
At this moment, they had to endure obediently and looked at their lord with fanaticism.
“Everyone.”
Lin Ye spoke, drawing everyone’s attention.
Fortunately, his throat had also been strengthened. Even though his voice was not loud, it spread far and wide. He said in a clear voice, “Originally, the reward for today’s work should be in the afternoon, but because everyone has fought with the zombie wave yesterday, all major working groups worked overtime. This is the first time everyone is working overtime in shifts.”
“Therefore, in order to reward everyone, I’ve decided to give everyone the benefits in advance.”
“Long live our Lord!”
“Long live our Lord!”
Waves of cheers sounded from below.
“Alright, I know. But just living long is not enough. Remember to say ‘live beyond ten of thousands of years’ next time.”
Lin Ye teased and continued, “Let’s cut the crap. As per the old rules, loyalty takes priority. If you become a loyalist, you will be rewarded unconditionally. Your contribution will be ranked in the top ten.”
“My lord!” At this moment, someone among the new recruits raised his hand.
“Please go on.” Lin Ye nodded.
“My lord, if there are too many loyalists and the equipment and upgrade scrolls are all distributed, what will happen to the top ten contributors like us?”
The person asked pitifully.
Coincidentally, he was one of the newcomers who killed the most enemies yesterday.
After his lord’s promise last night and the delicious breakfast that morning, he was satisfied with the new territory and his lord.
However, when it came to equipment and upgrade scrolls, there were too many people sharing too few rewards. He did not dare to take the risk and could only voice his worries in advance.
