Chapter 196: Chapter 175: Return to the Territory, Crazy Construction (Part 2)

Wang Bushi followed behind Wang Yi. The moment he saw Jelena, a miraculous connection through their bloodline was established. His face lit up with joy as he stepped forward and said, "Jelena, little sister, your big brother is back!"

Jelena froze for a moment. After sizing up the little, bald-headed boy with a cannonball on his back, it was as if she, too, had instantly downloaded some mysterious information. She quickly bowed and said happily, "Big Brother Bushi!"

"My dear sister! My dear sister!"

Wang Bushi was thrilled. He pulled Jelena aside to chat, and the two children were just like real siblings who hadn’t seen each other in ages, acting incredibly close.

This scene, however, left many people confused. Yang Wanli frowned from the side. He tugged on his son, Yang Qingniu, who had just stepped off the small train, and said, "Son, the Boss was only gone for a short while. How did he cook up a son out of nowhere? Is he a long-lost kid he found out there?"

"How should I know?"

Yang Qingniu rolled his eyes at Yang Wanli. Now that his power had greatly increased, all he wanted to do was find Zhang Lengzi and the others to show off.

"I happen to know a thing or two about this matter!"

Hu Miaosuan suddenly drew near. Stroking his beard, he nodded at Yang Wanli and said, "A Divine Being like our Lord once ruled over myriad living beings. He had a family and countless followers, but most of them are still slumbering in the River of Reverie, waiting for him to awaken them. I am very fortunate to have already been awakened by the Boss. I believe that one day, our Lord will awaken all of his family and followers..."

"Mmm..."

Yang Wanli gave a noncommittal grunt. At that moment, he and the dozen or so people around him were all in a daze. It was the effect of The Masses Are Like Fools; each of them was lost in their own thoughts.

Meanwhile, Wang Yi was standing with Nangong Jin and Wadu, introducing the new recruits who were disembarking from the small train.

Li Huaizheng and Pei Xue each held a small notebook, like on-site scribes, rapidly recording the information Wang Yi provided.

"These are the Purple-skinned Orcs. Don’t be fooled by the fact that they’re all female. When it comes to work, one of them can do the job of three strong men. Where’s Yang Qinggu? Have her come over. Get the Orcs settled in the First Dining Hall first. Let them rest before they start moving supplies..."

"These are Dark Night Elves. They can gather wood. Tell Zhang Dashan that the Production Team won’t need to cut down trees or gather stone anymore..."

"These robots are called Bayonet Robots. They’re intelligent, can perform patrols, and specialize in defense. There are 160 of them in total. Wadu, grant them charging privileges. For now, I’m putting them under your command..."

"These two are Maintenance Robots, experts in mechanical repair. I won’t bother with their names. Wadu, give them charging privileges as well..."

"Come on, Watermelon, come and meet everyone. The people here are very easygoing. Black Beans, you come over too. Once the schoolhouse is built, you’ll be going to school as well..."

"And Old Mo, Factory Director Mo, really pitched in this time around..."

"On this expedition, we fought several battles, and many people had breakthroughs! Look, that’s Hai Pei, who’s about to reach Foundation Establishment! The one in the Training Suit is Kung Fu’s Number One Killing King, and those two are the King Spartas..."

Wang Yi was in a good mood and was, for once, willing to say a little more.

But after the lively commotion died down, the arduous task of getting everything in order began.

Wang Yi had brought back a considerable amount of supplies from the World of Suffering. Most of it was still inside the small train and needed to be unloaded as quickly as possible so the train could get back on track and resume its trade runs.

The unloading had to be done carefully, as most of the supplies were munitions—flammable, explosive, and sensitive to being knocked around. They required proper handling.

Wang Yi’s Starlight Bracelet also held several hundred tons of grain and a large quantity of miscellaneous goods that the territory’s residents needed to sort and organize.

In truth, Wang Yi was the busiest of all. He had a great many things to do, but his first stop was the Chaos Warehouse to inspect the [Construction Drawings for the Tower of Suffering].

The Tower of Suffering built from these drawings was no ordinary structure. It was a super-building that could connect to World of Suffering No. 356, granting him ten years of exclusive exploration rights.

One could say that this Tower of Suffering was the greatest reward for clearing the World of Suffering.

’Let’s see what the settings are for these exclusive traversal rights...’

Full of interest, Wang Yi began to inspect the Attribute Information of the Construction Drawings in his hand.

Name: Construction Drawings for the Tower of Suffering

Description: Special Item, Bound Item. Builds a teleportation tower that connects to World of Suffering No. 356. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Note 1: Once built, the Tower of Suffering can remain operational for a maximum of ten years. The countdown begins from the day this Scroll was issued. The tower will automatically collapse after 10 years.

Note 2: For ten years, you may send residents of your territory to World of Suffering No. 356 via the Tower of Suffering. Those who are teleported are called "Traversers." Traversers can travel between the two worlds using the Tower of Suffering. The total cumulative time spent exploring in World of Suffering No. 356 cannot exceed ten years. This refers to ten years of time within the World of Suffering. After exceeding ten years, an individual will lose their Traverser status and can no longer use the Tower of Suffering.

Note 3: Each Traverser is timed independently. The flow of time is different between the World of Suffering and the original world. For every one year that passes in the World of Suffering, only one day passes in the original world.

’Excellent, excellent! This is even better than I imagined. Ten years of traversal rights, exclusively for my use. World of Suffering No. 356 has just become my private backyard! Not only can I acquire massive amounts of resources and supplies from there, but the residents of my territory can also get an extra ten years to grow... I can send people like Yang Wanli, Yang Qingniu, and others who can advance through Cultivation into World of Suffering No. 356. Even if they did nothing but sit there and cultivate for ten years, their strength would surely increase immensely.’

’And all the while, only ten days would have passed outside.’
