Jiang Fei and the others were stationed in a good position. They were not at the outermost part of the farm, but in the middle. There were also a few big trees, a small stream, and a sheep pen.

“Captain Neo, Can We Eat Something? I’m a little hungry!”A clone recruit asked Neo. Since the beginning of the clone’s activation, they had not had any food!

“HMM…”Neo hesitated for a moment and eventually shook his head and refused.

“Everyone, drink some water first. The food should be distributed on the top!”Neo said to the few recruits under him.

“Alright…”the few clone recruits were a little disappointed. They went to the stream to get some water to drink, but there was nothing they could do about the food.

After about half an hour, a few clone warriors came to Jiang Fei’s defense area and chased away the sheep. Not a single one was left behind. It was obvious.., these sheep were meant for the sheriff and the higher level clone warriors to enjoy. Not to mention the recruits like Jiang Fei and the others, even Neo did not have a share.

Soon, smoke rose from the distant manor. After a while, the smell of roasted meat drifted out. Jiang Fei could clearly hear the few clone recruits beside him swallowing their saliva.

When the sheriff and his closest subordinates were eating the roasted meat, they did not forget about the thousands of clone warriors outside. Soon, someone from Jiang Fei’s side came to deliver the food, presumably, the clones stationed in other places had also received the food.

However, compared to the sheriff’s roasted meat, Jiang Fei’s food was much worse. This was a porridge made from some unknown grain. Although this farm was not small.., however, the amount of grain stored here was only enough for a few thousand people. Therefore, there was no other way. The porridge had to be made a little thinner. Only then would everyone be full.

There was not enough food, not to mention cutlery. No farm would prepare thousands of bowls unless the farm was a porcelain kiln. and the place where Jiang Fei and the rest were at was obviously not a porcelain kiln, therefore, cutlery did not exist.

The few clone recruits took off their helmets one by one. Then, the clone who delivered the food took out a horse spoon and gave each of them half a helmet.

Neo, the clone warrior, was treated slightly better than Jiang Fei and the others. Other than the porridge with half a helmet, he was also given a steamed bun. However, this steamed bun was dark and looked very hard.

“The conditions are difficult. Everyone, make do with it,”Neo said to his soldiers. At this time, the clones that delivered the food had already left. They had to go to the next defense area to deliver the porridge.

“HMM! It’s good enough that there’s food!”The other clones actually had smiles on their faces.

Because when all the clones were activated, they were injected with the consciousness of absolute loyalty to the sheriff. Therefore, no matter how bad the food was or how difficult the conditions were, these clones were willing to do it, this subconscious ideology was already like a kind of faith. It made them worship the sheriff, as if the sheriff was their God.

Under such circumstances, the sheriff naturally didn’t need to put on a show of eating and sleeping together. They lived in clean rooms, eating barbecued meat and drinking fine wine, while the clone warriors outside.., they could only drink the gruel that was difficult to swallow. After that, no one on the open grassland had a piece of cloth to block the cold wind.

On the other side, Jiang Fei put the helmet in front of his nose. A pungent smell immediately rushed up, causing Jiang Fei to immediately keep the helmet away from his head. At that moment, Jiang Fei was almost certain that.., the grains in the gruel were the feed for the livestock. There might be some potions or other things mixed in it to prevent livestock from living.

Unlike the other clones, Jiang Fei’s mind was very flexible. When he was stationed in the city, the other clones were carefully watching the streets. Jiang Fei quietly walked to the kitchen, then, he filled his stomach.

Therefore, the new clone recruits were already very hungry. Naturally, they could not care less. In addition, they had a blind admiration for the sheriff. Therefore, even if they were to eat slops, they would still find it sweet.

However, Jiang Fei was different. Firstly, he was not brainwashed. Secondly, he was not that hungry. Therefore, he really could not swallow the helmet porridge.

“Why aren’t you eating?”Asked neo.

“I’m not very hungry. When I was stationed in the city, I saw that there was food in the kitchens of those houses. So, I ate it,”Jiang Fei did not lie.

“Uh…”initially, everyone felt good eating the disgusting porridge. However, when Jiang Fei said that, everyone suddenly felt that they were at a disadvantage.

Jiang Fei’s actions were not against any rules in the eyes of the clones. However, everyone’s thinking was not as flexible as his. Therefore, no one thought that it would be impossible to go back and look for food now, therefore, everyone was filled with regret.

“341, since you are not hungry, can you give me some of your gruel?”A female clone asked. To be honest, even though this gruel was disgusting, it was not enough. Therefore, it was really not enough to fill their stomachs.

“You guys can share it!”Jiang Fei handed the helmet over. He really could not finish it. The porridge was terrible, but he had been wearing the helmet for a whole day. It was filled with the smell of sweat, then, he mixed the porridge with animal feed that was filled with antibiotics and hormones. This thing was really not something that an ordinary person could swallow.

“Whoosh!”Although it was difficult for Jiang Fei to swallow the porridge, when he handed the helmet over, his companions immediately snatched it over. Then, in the blink of an eye, they divided it up completely, even the inside of the helmet had been licked.

There was nothing that could be done. These clones had been fighting for a whole day. Although they were clones, they were not robots after all. The intense consumption of the day had made everyone hungry to death. The half-helmet gruel did not care at all.

After the Gruel was finished, the clone warriors could be considered to have finished their dinner. Although everyone had not eaten their fill, that was all they could do.

“Sigh…”Jiang Fei sighed. Based on the current situation, if the sheriff could not quickly take back the city or find a stable supply channel, they would not be able to win the coup, even if they wanted to survive, it would be difficult.

The night passed very quickly. That night, Jiang Fei and the other clones in the team took turns to be on duty. When they arrived at the farm, it was already midnight. Therefore, they did not sleep for long before the sun rose.

When the Sun Rose, Jiang Fei and the others opened their eyes. Almost all of them were greeted by the sound of their stomachs growling.
