Lancelot waited in the forest for half a day, but there were no workers who were constructing the city.

When he was about to lose his patience and thought that Sherlock was fooling him, he saw a strange-looking pumpkin carriage without a driver coming out from the grove.

A small girl, who was wearing a tutu skirt and had pure white skin, dismounted. Behind her were three fat Hamsters. They looked too large and scary. There were lots of Druids in this world who could train certain animals to be their assistants.

Everyone gathered forward. The small girl didn’t say a word as she dismounted from the carriage.

Lancelot looked on in disbelief.

The empty space bulged up while soil and rocks assembled on their own. The surrounding leaves accumulated with strong swirling winds and stuck to the bulging soil. Before long, a grand castle that was made of soil and rock appeared.

“Please work hard. I’m Duchess Lilo, I’ll be your Lord Overseer.”

After speaking, Lilo brought her three Hamsters into the newly constructed castle. She paused before turning her head to speak to Lancelot and the rest, “Oh, yes, try to solve your own problems. If you can’t, find them. They are Big Boss, Second Boss, and Fat Otaku.”

The three Hamsters raised their hands. Then, the middle Hamster walked out and dry coughed twice before saying, “I’m Big Boss, Miss Lilo’s first assistant. Our workers are coming soon. Do you have any questions?”

…

At the recruitment location outside the Dungeon Lord Main Hall.

“I wonder what the situation is like in the Surface World. If only we could create another account,” NotWearingPants said thoughtfully as he sat in a chair with his shiny armor.

“I just went to the discussion forum to take a look. There are only trees. The only building is a soil castle. I told you before that Victoria’s starting from scratch! I wonder when they will be able to start challenging the Instance Dungeon,” BurningChestHair said as he gloated.

“Okay. I’ll arrange for someone to find the way to Victoria. Then we’ll raid the city. Arthur, you’ll be in charge. I’ll make Arthur the god of our faction!” Sylvanas said as she slammed on the table.

“But the City Lord is Lilo. She’s the one who killed Samael directly,” Peasant said worriedly. “Do you think we can defeat her?”

“Seems quite difficult…” NotWearingPants said.

“Ah, what shall we do? Why don’t we organize a group to raid the wilderness outside Victoria?”

Sylvanas was itching for a fight.

“It’s better that we don’t. We don’t know where Victoria is or how the two factions will get along.” BurningChestHair gave his opinion.

The other gamers nodded in agreement. Only Arthur looked distracted.

While they were chatting, the other gamers were actively recruiting Guild members. NotWearingPants and his companions appeared as mascots, then they decided to challenge the 15-member Instance Dungeon.

Arthur didn’t object and followed NotWearingPants and the rest. Before leaving, he turned to look at the flowerbed.

The Little Fairy was living up in a tree. Nobody knew when the luscious tree was grown, but it looked four or five years old, even though it was only a short time. The Little Fairy used the leaves and branches to make a little house.

Many gamers were at the seedbed cultivating various plants. Since the soil quality was good, with the assistance of Mana, the plants only required ten minutes to mature. Most of them were Alchemy materials and condiments for cooking.

Though they weren’t valuable, they were basic plants, and the gamers had to start from the basics to gain experience.

Plant cultivators were very rare in this game.

Arthur wasn’t concerned about the value of the cultivated plants. Only a few new Goblins were standing at the seedbed, and Arthur heard someone ask, “Where is Veteran Raintea?”

“Yeah, it’s the first day of the Third Beta Test, and Raintea isn’t online. I was thinking of meeting such a legendary, revered character.”

“That’s a joke. Is that how you show your reverence?”

Arthur turned his head back and left with his companions.

…

Lilo sat in the small castle that was created using her Mana Skills. She frowned as she felt her Mana draining.

In front of her was a huge crystal ball, which was an enlarged Doppelganger Precious Pearl. To be precise, it was a fusion of a portion of Bru and the Doppelganger Precious Pearl.

At this time, the crystal ball was showing the face of Sherlock.

“How is it, Lilo?” Sherlock asked casually as he appeared within the crystal ball. Behind him was Eggface, who was sitting behind a computer and typing furiously on the keyboard. Sherlock was in the Dungeon Lord Main Hall, conversing with Lilo.

“Mana is draining too fast. There is a problem with the Dungeon Core that you have provided.”

Lilo frowned and looked outside the window. Teleport Portals appeared incessantly, and Humans, Fairies, and Elves walked out of the portals.

There were proportionately more Humans.

They were wearing shorts. For females, they had simple shirts. Some of them looked beautiful and handsome, while others looked ugly. Some Humans squatted on the ground and moved in strange manners.

No matter how Lilo looked, these Humans, Fairies, and Elves didn’t look like construction workers.

Lilo asked Sherlock, “Did you use my Mana to create these races?”
