When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1271 Farm Owner 24
Tan Youxin thought to herself, "If the pollution index is over 40, it's not safe to eat. But I want to try it out. Once the pollution index drops, are the mutated ingredients really not safe to eat?"

Upon seeing the pollution index of the grapevines, Chen Xiaojun exclaimed in surprise, "62 points? Looks like we won't be able to eat any grapes."

Tan You wasn't as pessimistic as him: "Let's try it first. There's nothing in this world that's truly useless. What if it's inedible but has other uses?"

Chen Xiaojun sighed, "Then you'll have to tell me then, is it safe to eat these grapevines after they've all been purified?"

"I won't forget you," Tan You chuckled and shook her head, thinking that foodies could be found everywhere, and now she had actually met one.

Minister Huang dug the hole with great effort. After the pepper tree jumped into the hole on its own, Minister Huang shoveled soil into the hole and casually said, "Speaking of which, Jin Ying led a team out on a mission the day before yesterday. I wonder how it went."

Chen Xiaojun immediately brought the topic back: "With Jin Ying on the front lines, one is worth two! They're guaranteed to return victorious."

"Achoo! Achoo!" Jin Xi sneezed twice in a row. "Who's talking about me?"

“Nobody’s talking about you,” Yan Liang said, scanning the area with his terminal. “Captain Mu, are you sure that pepper tree is here?”

“I’m sure,” Mu Nan said, frowning in confusion, “I’m sure the pepper tree is right here. How did it disappear? I’ve come here several times, and it’s always here. Could it have grown legs and run away?”

Jin Xi glanced around: "Everyone, disperse. Report any news immediately."

"Yes!"

The group dispersed, and Mu Nan searched around as well. "Strange, I remember there was an octagonal tree outside the town, but it's gone now?"

"Was it cut down by some legion? Or burned down?"

Jin Xi stared at the large pit in front of him for a long time before frowning: "It probably ran away on its own."

"Are you kidding me?" Mu Nan subconsciously frowned. "But level four and above mutated plants can indeed move. They've been here for years, how could they suddenly leave?"

Jin Xi shrugged: "I don't know. Let's go back. They've probably already left."

The group returned empty-handed, feeling both happy and disappointed. Happy that they didn't have to fight the mutated plants today, but disappointed that they had missed out on a treasure trove.

This conflicting feeling was truly perplexing. When the group arrived at the legion, they ran into Minister Huang and the soldiers of the third squad, who had just returned from their work.

Yan Liang asked curiously, "You went strawberry picking yourself today? It looks like you were rolling around in the mud."

Minister Huang patted the dust off his sleeves: "Xiao Lin's strawberries have ripened for another five acres, and I've gone to sign the contract. As for this soil, we're going to plant trees for Xiao Lin today."

“Speaking of trees,” Minister Huang glanced at the pickup truck accompanying him, “didn’t you bring them back?”

Yan Liang looked dejected: "Don't even mention it, what a wasted trip. The pepper tree is no longer there, and the star anise tree nearby is nowhere to be found either."

“That’s quite a coincidence. We planted a Sichuan pepper tree and a star anise tree for Xiaolinzi today.” Minister Huang said subconsciously, then frowned: “How could it be such a coincidence?” Mu Nan narrowed his eyes: “It is indeed too much of a coincidence. Minister Huang, can you tell us more about it?”

Minister Huang then recounted his trip with Tan You to the farm to collect small grass stems and the other five mutated plants, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment. Yan Liang slapped his thigh: "Those are our pepper tree and star anise tree!"

Minister Huang said quietly, "Now it's Xiao Lin's turn."

Yan Liang looked pained: "How did Xiao Linzi manage to do that? He was just sitting on the farm, and the mutated plants just delivered themselves to his doorstep?"

Mu Nan pondered for a long time: "I guess it's that dodder plant? Dodder is a type of mutated vine that is good at strangling and moves quickly. According to Minister Huang, Xiao Lin is familiar with dodder, so it makes sense that he brought these mutated plants with him."

Jin Xi: "It's pretty much true. The little guy is young, but he has a lot of good stuff."

As he spoke, he frowned and said, "Old Huang, in a little while, send her the best protective shield in the legion, along with five high-grade energy stones."

Yan Liang shook his head and said, "They're really going all out."

“She deserves it,” Jin Xi said calmly. “Only with a large enough investment can the return be substantial enough. Besides, Xiao Lin is very talented, so it’s right to give her more care.”

Mu Nan said hopefully, "It would be great if we could get Xiao Lin to join our legion to farm."

“She’s someone who can’t stand being restrained,” Jin Xi saw it better than anyone else: “But she’s within our legion’s sphere of influence, so we can protect her. I think she’s someone who likes to keep a low profile. She won’t show off having suddenly acquired so many mutated plants.”

"Once she improves her strength, no one will dare to covet what's hers."

Tan You had no idea that the dodder had intercepted the Third Legion's mutated plants, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. They were already on her farm; could she just give them up? Even if she couldn't completely purify the pepper trees and star anise trees yet, so what?
It is only a matter of time.

Lying on the recliner, Tan You held a small blade of grass in her hand: "I didn't expect you to have the highest pollution index, still at 79 points. You also rubbed so many of my power orbs before, how high must your pollution index have been?"

The little grass stalks clung to Tan You's fingers, with only one purpose: to get the energy ball. Tan You sighed helplessly, "Here you go, but I'm only level four right now. I can only compress your pollution index to 0, but I definitely can't eradicate it right now. Please wait for me."

The little grass stalk curled around Tan You's finger; it had been waiting for many years, so what was a little longer?

A smile appeared in Tan You's eyes as she picked up her notebook and began to record: Level 6 pepper tree, 15 pollution index points; Level 5 star anise tree, 18 pollution index points; Level 4 grape tree, 62 pollution index points; Level 3 lychee tree, 56 pollution index points.

"It's a long and arduous journey." Looking at the six newly arrived mutated plants, Tan You sighed, but her eyes were full of curiosity and a desire to explore.

Tan You's first choice for purification was a level three lychee tree. As her superpower level increased to level four, she could purify 16 points of pollution index at a time. After purifying twice a day, morning and evening, the lychee tree's pollution index dropped to 9 points in three days.

The purification speed is particularly slow below 10 points, but Tan You is not in a hurry, taking it one day at a time, it's a slow and steady process anyway. Just when the pollution index of the lychee trees dropped to 20, the condition of the lychees also changed: Level 3 mutated lychees, pollution index 20 points, edible, but causing nausea and vomiting after consumption.

When the pollution index dropped to 9 points, the test results for the lychees became: Level 3 mutant lychees, pollution index 9 points. Edible, with no toxic side effects.

Just as Tan You was purifying these mutated plants, Xiao Caogen brought her some more first- and second-tier mutated plants. For example, first-tier mutated peanuts, first-tier mutated red beans, and second-tier mutated pomegranates.
