Chapter 487 Signing the Contract
"Then give it to me first!" The mutated plant thought with its few remaining cells.

"No way, you have to leave the central base with me first." Lu Li didn't bother to bargain with it and said directly.

The mutated plant pondered for a long, long time before finally making up its mind and saying, "Okay." This stinky human may have strong defenses, but it has little offensive power.

Going with her shouldn't be dangerous.

The warehouse was located on the edge of the central base, very close to the small gate. Lu Li collected all the plants and led Shen Bing and the others out with the mutated plants.

Just like that... so quickly.

Shen Bing hadn't expected it to be so simple; she should have brought Lu Li with her.

After the group left the central base, Shen Bing sent a message to Elder Shen, informing him of what had happened.

Lu Li wanted to walk a little further, but the mutated plant kept urging her, "Don't go any further! Can't you just leave it here? Why are you still walking? I'm dizzy!"

"Alright, alright, hurry up!" Lu Li muttered under her breath.

Then he took out a small knife and a clean test tube, and made a small cut on the pad of his ring finger.

Once the blood droplets have formed, squeeze them into a test tube, seal the tube, and hand it forward. The mutated plant is overjoyed, and its vines begin to sway slightly.

Dozens of vines suddenly sprouted to catch the test tubes, and Shen Bing subconsciously took a step forward, blocking Lu Li's side.

But at this moment, the mutated plant's mind was only focused on this drop of blood; it couldn't care about anything else.

After getting the test tube, it hurriedly tried to leave, but Lu Li stopped it, "Hey? Let's sign a contract, otherwise I won't trust you!"

The mutated plant immediately wanted to curse, "You don't believe me? You actually don't believe me?"

But for the sake of this drop of blood, it reluctantly agreed.

Lu Li took out the contract provided by the system. Once signed, it would be a soul contract, and the system would take action if anyone violated its terms.

This is similar to the contract that Luli signed with the shop owner.

The only difference is that the contract was signed with a plant instead of a person.

The mutated plant couldn't understand the words at all, and just asked blankly, "What do I need to do?"

"Just put your handprint on it," Lu Li said, taking out an inkpad.

The mutated plant did as instructed, pressing its fingerprint on the contract without any warning. Deer Pear also pressed his fingerprint, and that was it—the contract was signed.

Lu Li was finally relieved, but still a little unwilling.

This plant caused so much damage and hurt so many people at the central base, and we just let it go so easily...

Seriously! I'm angry! I'm so resentful!

The mutated plant was about to leave happily when Lu Li called it back again, "Wait, come with me."

"Why should I! I want to go home now!" It was also very anxious, eager to return to its lair to taste this drop of blood and see if the taste was as wonderful as it imagined.

"I will obey your every word." Lu Li frowned and uttered four words, then turned and walked towards the central base.

The mutated plant wanted to ask what this meant, but found itself uncontrollably following behind the deer pear.

"You, you, you! What did you do to me?!" it roared in disbelief, recalling the handprint it had just pressed down.

What? Why can a few simple sheets of paper have such a big effect? ​​It didn't believe it! It tried hard to control its body, making itself move in the opposite direction.

The result, of course, was that it had absolutely no effect!
It struggled with its own body for a while, fighting and fighting, without even realizing that it had entered the central base.

Shen Bing asked Lu Li, "What are you going to do with it?"

Lu Li thought it over carefully and said, "Wouldn't it be awesome to take it to do hard labor? Let it experience the hardships of life by moving bricks."

Luo Mu finally felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders and excitedly pumped his fist. "Yay! I've been annoyed with it for ages! What's it so arrogant about!"

The mutated plant had been trying to reclaim control of its body, but to no avail! It looked up and realized it was back again?

"Damn human, what did you bring me here for!" it roared fiercely, trying to scare her away.

But now, in Lu Li's eyes, this plant is just a lamb to the slaughter, at her mercy, and she can't be bothered with it at all.

Luo Mu wanted to argue with it, but he couldn't understand what it was saying, so he had to give up.

Lu Li brought the mutated plant to Elder Shen and only said one sentence.

"It's up to you."

Old Shen's gaze fell on the large green leaf behind Lu Li. "Is that it? How come I can see it all of a sudden?"

Lu Li guessed that it was because it was too excited and couldn't maintain its stealth state.

So she told him the truth. Old Shen seemed to understand but not quite, and asked her, "How do you intend to handle this?"

“It has a contract with me now, and it obeys me completely. I plan to let it stay and repair the buildings it damaged,” Lu Li said.

"I'll stay and clean up the mess I made. As for what happens next, I haven't thought about it yet."

Old Shen nodded, "We'll do as you say. We're short-handed right now."

Although he really wanted to tear it to pieces to comfort the dead.

But leaving it here to pay for its life with hard labor is more painful than letting it die directly.

The research institute suffered the most casualties, with a total of eight researchers dying and the others sustaining injuries.

"Okay, just let me know if you need any more supplies, and I'll buy them for you." Lu Li agreed, then added, "Mission complete, we'll head back now."

Before leaving, she told the mutated plant, "You must listen to Shen Qingting and not harm humans."

The mutated plant immediately cursed, "Why should I leave, you damned humans!"

Damn it, all my freedom was sacrificed for a single drop of blood?

It suddenly felt a little regretful...

Lu Li didn't care and left with Shen Bing and the others without looking back.

A mutated plant left alone, crying and wailing, but no one paid it any attention.

Old Shen stepped forward with a cold smile and whispered a few words to it in a sinister tone, which frightened it so much that it turned pale.

Lu Li returned to the lottery shop, swiped her phone, and lay down on the sofa.

During her absence, the other store managers all kept to themselves and did their own thing.

Shen Lin (the bar) and Jiang Xinlong (the courier station) stayed at the clinic to prevent any accidents from happening.

The anomaly was discovered after breakfast, and after a flurry of activity, it was almost dinnertime.

Lu Li was starving, and so were the others, so they simply ordered takeout from a hot pot restaurant.

She ordered takeout while lying on the sofa, and the ingredients and hot pot base arrived quickly.

The others quickly tidied up, arranged the ingredients, and put the pot under the stove to start cooking.

Soon, a fragrant aroma wafted out, and Lu Li, drawn by the scent, couldn't wait to start eating.

Everyone was starving, so they ate the rice with gusto. When you're hungry, everything tastes especially delicious.

"I need to fill my stomach first before I can talk," Lu Li said in confusion. "I wonder what kind of thing that mutated plant is, that it's so powerful."

Based on his limited experience, Luo Mu said, "It feels like a tenth-order mutated plant."
