In the shady banana grove, the workers, dressed in tattered clothes, finally finished their day's work. They took advantage of the last rays of the setting sun to lean against the banana trees and rest, recovering from their fatigue before heading home.
"What happened? Why did it suddenly get dark?"
"Why did it get dark so quickly today?" a worker said in surprise, looking up at the sky. In the time it took to take a sip of water, the sky suddenly darkened, thick clouds gathering, as if night had fallen.
"Looks like it's going to rain heavily. We'd better hurry home! The house is still leaking! I hope this rain doesn't start too fast!" A worker stood up, patted the dust off his backside, and complained while praying.
"Go home, my children are hungry and waiting for me!"
Following this worker's words, the other workers also stood up and walked together out of the banana plantation. No one complained about why their lives were like this, or why they were so miserable; they had become accustomed to the stable life of exploitation and their high caste status.

"Their mentality is that of the weak; it'll be quite difficult to drive them crazy!" Through the layers of dark clouds, looking down at the Ah San workers who had already resigned themselves to being exploited, Wang Han said to the python spirit with a smile.
"It is somewhat difficult! But it is only difficult, not impossible. Everyone has a bottom line in their heart. Once the bottom line is crossed, people will go crazy. These Indians' bottom line is just much lower than others. Their bottom line is low, but that doesn't mean it can't be reached," the python spirit said confidently.
"Then I'll watch your performance from here," Wang Han said with a smile.
"My lord, you can rest assured that I will not disappoint the organization in terms of strategy." The python spirit said confidently. After speaking, it said to Wang Han in a flattering tone, "My lord, I also want to join the organization. Please be sure to introduce me. I have nurtured the West Sea Water Dividing Pearl for more than 500 years. I originally planned to nurture it into a dragon pearl when I transformed into a dragon after a thousand years of cultivation. It is just a small token of my respect."
After speaking, the python spirit spat out a translucent, azure bead, its surface shimmering with spiritual light and radiating precious energy. Although it was said to be a small token of its affection, it was clear from the python spirit's earlier words that this item was extremely important to it, no less than its lifeblood.
“No need to be so polite. From the moment you participated in the calamity, you have become a member of it,” Wang Han said with a smile, without taking the water-splitting pearl from the python spirit.
"What you say is true, sir." The python spirit quickly flattered, "But I know that with your introduction, I can be different from others and become a true member of the Tribulation. My chances of survival will be much greater. So please don't look down on me, sir. I will definitely follow your lead in the future."
“You see things clearly, you’re a clever fellow. You can begin your performance now,” Wang Han said with a smile, taking the water-splitting pearl from the python spirit.
"Thank you, sir! I'll go lead those three right away!" Seeing Wang Han accept his Water-Dividing Pearl, the python demon quickly spoke like a subordinate, then flew down from the dark clouds. He knew very well that the other demons with him were merely cannon fodder, meant to die as well. Only by truly joining the massive organization of Jie would his life be worth more than those of other demons.

"Tsk tsk tsk...!"
"Your lives are truly miserable! You live like dogs. No, your so-called loyalty is an insult to the loyalty of dogs, an insult to dogs. You are despicable, spineless, not loyal."
A voice rang out behind the Indian workers who were leaving the banana grove, its tone full of sarcasm, mockery, and insults.
Hearing the noise, the Indian workers turned around and looked back. Seeing no one in the banana grove behind them, they exchanged puzzled glances, shook their heads, and continued walking out of the grove. There was no anger on their faces at all. Such insults were nothing to them. The insults from the higher castes were far more humiliating. They were already tired of hearing things like "spineless" and "cowardly." They didn't fly into a rage then either. Maybe they used to, but not anymore. Life went on as usual.
“Words alone won’t do with these guys who are used to being submissive,” Wang Han said with a sneer as he appeared beside the python spirit hiding in the banana grove.
"Rest assured, my lord, I'm merely planting a seed in their hearts so they can prove themselves better in the future and make the most of their value before they die," the python spirit said confidently. Its massive body moved with the speed of a moving train, causing the surrounding banana leaves to rustle and fall, snapping and breaking any trees it touched. With a flick of its tail, it could snap banana trees behind it and toss them high into the air.
“That’s a bit like me.” Wang Han smiled and stood there watching the python spirit’s performance.
At the same time, the loud noise coming from the banana grove behind them made the Indian workers turn around and look at the banana grove in horror.
"Someone is destroying the banana grove! If the banana grove is destroyed, the boss will punish us tomorrow!" A terrified shout rang out among the Indian workers, who rushed into the rapidly collapsing banana grove with their sickles and other tools.
"...They're really shameless, but it's fine this way." Even through the thick banana trees, Wang Han could clearly see the Indians' behavior and was speechless. Was this the kind of commotion that ordinary people in this era could do?
"Bang..." The python demon crashed into the banana tree in front of the Indians, and its huge head, as big as a truck, appeared in front of them. Its huge and long body, as big as a train, surrounded it. It raised its head high, and its yellow vertical pupils looked coldly at the Indians who were about to return to fight, as if it wanted to devour them.
