At the same time, far away from the other end of the desert, a pair of eyes secretly peeked at the dilapidated city below.

If Luo Jiren were here, he would definitely recognize at a glance that those cities were the ones that fell from the northern border of Gaosu.

After being snatched back by Rose Barca, it was not long before calculating the time, but in the hands of these rats, the city was already dilapidated and not decent.

All buildings, big and small streets in the city are already extremely dirty and messy.

Since the end of that total war, Rose Barca, whose mentality has almost exploded, has used all the space he can use to increase the strength of his troops.

If you walk into those buildings, you will find that a large number of rat-human mothers are constantly fertilizing.

In addition to the military strength and population issues, for Rose Barka, who has lost the Rat Man Empire, how to solve the food problem is also the top priority.

After all, once the Rat Man Empire was gone, the food supply in his rear was almost cut off.

And those northern cities that he seized had long lost their productivity.

At first, it was really thanks to his stockpiling of food on the front line that helped him survive the most difficult period.

But according to his current situation, it is almost impossible to restore the supply of food in the short term.

To this end, Rose Barca used extraordinary means.

That is, use some rat slaves as food!

After that war, the remaining regular army forces in his hands had become very small.

As for rat slaves, they basically only need to have a bite to eat every day.

Therefore, sacrificing one rat slave every day can basically feed more than a dozen or twenty rat slaves.

This has caused the total population of the Rose Barka Rat Empire to not decline due to this move, and it has even been rising overall.

Holding breath, Slink moved carefully in the darkness.

As one of the most outstanding spies in Mingjingsi, this time his mission undoubtedly fell on him who inherited the code name "Black Crow".

With his own characteristics, Slink was always able to complete tasks excellently in many previous tasks.

But this time, the situation is obviously a little different.

Because the other party is a rat man, he is a dark elf and no matter how he does it, it is impossible for him to integrate into the rat man group.

In addition, more importantly, as the orcs, the rats are actually very sensitive to their senses.

Although Slink has a low presence, it did not disappear out of thin air. Under this premise, he must be very careful when facing such a group of keen senses, otherwise it will be exposed.

Therefore, even for this mission, even he can only observe secretly and penetrate deeply. The risk is too great.

Slink, who has always been upset about this situation and has always been worried about his weak presence, doesn't know whether to be happy or a headache, but his mood is so complicated...

The information sent back one after another made Mingjingsi confirm his mission progress.

Although it is difficult to satisfy people, considering Slink's situation, they seem to be unable to demand too much.

After sorting out the documents at hand, Luo Jin, the highest commander of the Mingjing Department, personally delivered a report to Luo Ji.

After reading it, Luo Ji thought about it briefly and then said to Luo Jin...

"We need more accurate information to let Black Crow continue to investigate. At the same time, let him pay a little attention to see if he can find the dungeon on the Rat Man side. If the location of the Rat Man dungeon can be confirmed, it will be a significant advantage for us."

"yes."

Luo Jin was as decisive as ever in his work. After responding, he quickly retreated.

Two days later, Dr. Colander's report from Zhuoke Provincial Genetics Institute was delivered to Luo Ji.

Although it has not been opened yet, Luo Ji has already guessed about the content of the report.

This cannot be an outcome report.

Because it has been less than half a month since the five researchers moved to that research institute, how could there be a report on the results so quickly?

Sure enough, this time, Dr. Curland sent it a plan report.

Simply put, it is to talk about his next research plan in the plan and apply for a research fund.

Dr. Clarand obviously already had some understanding of the dark matter produced in the Extreme Dark Pond. He even studied it briefly within half a month before this report came up.

According to his report, Chimera has only two ends now. If you use dark matter on Chimera, you will have a risk of death. If you lose it, the loss will be too great.

Therefore, he plans to continue to study the dark matter while cultivating new Chimera and increasing the amount of Chimera basics to see if he can thoroughly understand some of the ingredients and specific effects in it, so as to increase the success rate of subsequent trials.

Of course, Luo Ji would not say that it is not possible.

Those two ends of Chimera were his unexpected gain.

In the short term, he basically did not count the synthetic beasts as the combat power of his world civilization. He started with this project as a long-term venture capital. Even he himself could not say whether he could produce results that satisfies him. After all, Gao Su had been struggling for so long, but he did not produce any outstanding results.

In short, let Dr. Colander and others continue to study first. As for the issue of research funding, we really have to slow down.

It is no secret that his civilization in all worlds is currently in financial tension.

At the same time, the project he is now focusing on investing in research is also a research project on plague antibody vaccines in the medical school.

In addition, there are a lot of R&D projects that are underway and cannot be stopped suddenly.

If the Genetics Institute wants to increase research funds, it has to wait until there are one or two projects among these existing projects, and then talk about it after the research and development is successful.

Dr. Currand did not feel disappointed or surprised by Luo Ji's reply.

For him, the project was able to be preserved, and he later changed to a research institute with a better environment. Even his research on synthetic beasts found new breakthroughs. These things have been enough for him to be happy for a long time.

As for applying for an increase in research funds, it is just a by the way.

The main purpose of that report is to report to their Majesty about your future research plan.

After reading the last report at hand, Luo Ji twisted his slightly stiff neck in the Political Consultative Hall. Just as he was thinking about what to eat for lunch today, a servant hurriedly ran in...

"Your Majesty! It's awake!"
Chapter completed!
