Soon, Wang Teng skillfully prepared a cup of instant noodles for Jia.

"Come on, give it a try. It tastes pretty good." Holding a cup of noodles, Wang Teng handed the Master Kong instant noodles directly to Jia.

"Many thanks, my lord." Jia reached out and took it without hesitation, then picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.

Damn, it looks like he really is an ancient person! This time, Wang Teng didn't dare to mutter his complaints aloud; he could only grumble to himself.

Just then, as the first mouthful of noodles entered Jia's mouth, his eyes instantly lit up.

[Ding! Your servant Jia has felt your regard for him. Loyalty +10.]

"Phew." Hearing this sound, Wang Teng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief; he had finally stabilized the situation for the time being.

As for Jia, he devoured the noodles with the speed of a whirlwind, cleaning the cup down to the very last drop of broth, before looking at Wang Teng with a longing gaze.

"Damn it, you absolute glutton!"

Seeing that look in Jia's eyes, Wang Teng felt like he wanted to die; he had gained a bottomless pit for no reason at all!

However, in the end, Wang Teng couldn't resist the temptation of increasing loyalty, so he obediently started preparing another cup of noodles.

If Wang Teng could see the loyalty of the two Low-level Goblins on Su Yu's island, he would likely be so envious he'd fall apart. They were both servants, so why was the gap between them so massive?

Speaking of Su Yu, after being ravaged by three types of Attribute Potion, he couldn't help but shudder uncontrollably once the effects wore off.

"Refreshing." Having regained his senses, Su Yu couldn't help but let out a roar toward the sky.

After stretching his body, Su Yu chose to open the Monster Treasure Chest. After all, more people meant more labor; the island's construction couldn't rely on him alone.

"Bang." Following a gunshot from Su Yu's hand, the Low-level Goblin that emerged from the Monster Treasure Chest was sent straight to its grave.

Good grief, this scene scared the two Low-level Goblins who were working diligently nearby so much that they dropped to their knees on the spot.

Su Yu followed the same procedure and chose the goblin slave option, and thanks to his Double Happiness talent, he gained two more Low-level Goblins.

"You two, come here." After glancing at the two Low-level Goblins that had appeared out of thin air, Su Yu shouted at the two still kneeling on the ground.

Hearing the call, the two goblins immediately scrambled to their feet and trotted quickly to Su Yu's side.

"Here, each of you take one of them and tell them what they need to do every day. Do you understand?"

"This servant understands." Upon hearing this, the two goblins were instantly energized.

Although they were all Su Yu's slaves, it was one thing when there were few goblins, but once the numbers grew, there definitely needed to be a leader among them.

After all, goblins were considered intelligent life forms, and they naturally had their own little schemes.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that these guys were all in a state of absolute loyalty, Su Yu wouldn't have been so at ease handing over all the chores to them.

Afterward, Su Yu opened the treasure chest containing the Island Fragment he had retrieved from the fishing net and used it on the spot, causing the island's surface area to increase by another two square meters.

As for the Man-Eating Flower Seed, Su Yu glanced at his small island, chose a spot, dug a hole, and tossed it inside. After backfilling the soil, Su Yu took out the Plant Growth Acceleration Potion and poured it directly over the area.

Very quickly, in Su Yu's eyes, a tiny sprout pushed its way through the ground where the Man-Eating Flower Seed had been planted.

"Tsk tsk, this stuff is truly magical. If this could be researched in the world before I transmigrated, wouldn't one be winning awards until their hands went soft?"

After glancing at the tiny sprout on the ground, Su Yu's mind began to fill with all sorts of strange thoughts again.

Subsequently, Su Yu planted the other Man-Eating Flower Seed he had in his hand on the opposite side of the island.

It must be said that while other survivors were still struggling to secure basic supplies, Su Yu had already stepped into a life of luxury; not only did he have no worries about food and drink, but he was now even beginning to plan the development of his island.

Having tasted the sweetness of casting his net, Su Yu began to wander around the perimeter of his island once more.

[Below the sea surface here, there are mostly damaged wooden treasure chests and half-star wooden treasure chests; it is recommended to change locations.]

[Below the sea surface here, there are mostly One-Star Wooden Treasure Chests; it is recommended to change locations.]

Just like that, through Su Yu's precise positioning, he finally found another spot where he could cast his net.

[Below the sea surface here, there are mostly Two-Star Wooden Treasure Chests; it is recommended to cast the net for harvesting.]

Seeing the prompt floating before his eyes, Su Yu immediately arranged for two Low-level Goblins to drive in stakes, saving him from being caught off guard later.

Once the wooden stakes were set, Su Yu quickly cast his Simple Fishing Net. After swiftly wrapping the rope around the stakes, he clapped his hands together and walked over to the Massage Chair to sit down.

As for the task of pulling the net, since he already possessed four Low-level Goblins, there was naturally no need for Su Yu to get involved; he only needed to keep an eye on when the net was full.

While keeping an eye on the feedback from his Insight Talent regarding the water surface, Su Yu tapped into the Communication Channel.

When Su Yu sank his consciousness into the Communication Channel and scrolled up through the chat logs until he reached the message sent by that guy Wang Teng earlier, a subtle change appeared on Su Yu's face.

"To think one can actually open a treasure chest and get a human being?" From the sentence Wang Teng had posted, Su Yu began to ponder.

After some thought, Su Yu locked his focus onto the issue of loyalty.

To be honest, if the treasure chests that could yield humans produced servants with very low loyalty, requiring him to slowly build rapport and chemistry with them, Su Yu would much rather have monsters as his subordinates who were loyal to the death.

"Sigh, I'm eating big fish and meat every day; I'm almost sick of it. Can't you stop me from catching so much meat? I really want to experience what it feels like to be hungry."

"Holy crap, there's a show-off here. Someone come quickly and beat him to death."

"Damn, a guy like you wouldn't last ten minutes in a TV drama."

"Screw you, I hope the guy in the first post gets his wish granted, and multiplied by ten. Starve this jerk to death."

Just as Su Yu was deep in thought, someone on the Communication Channel had actually started showing off.

"Tsk tsk, you bunch of people, you can't eat the grapes so you call them sour. I'm showing off, so what? I'm arrogant, what are you going to do about it?"

"If you've got the guts, compare yourself to the big shots in the top ten of the rankings. What kind of thing are you to be blabbering here? Looking for a sense of superiority here? I bet you're squatting in front of the light screen right now, gnawing on a steamed bun and drinking cold water, putting on a brave face to look rich!"

"Damn, this guy must be bored out of his mind!" At this moment, Su Yu, who had glanced at the latest messages, couldn't help but feel speechless.
