[SleepLifeIsImportant: Rob his daze, hahaha.]

[ThisIsInteresting: Was that character created by a human? Why is the appearance extraordinary and outstanding?]

[RussianFamilyOfFive: This house will leak water, you have to patch it with straw.]

[MeetingYouAtTheDeepEndOfMyLife: Wah! What an ugly and deformed character! Decapitate him!]

[ExplodedDice: Are you trying to take up-skirt pictures from this angle?]

In the Dungeon Lord Main Hall of Eternal Kingdom, Sherlock was browsing the post: [Using bare hands to cut trees, Natural Fighter isn’t afraid of starting from scratch.]

“Lord Sherlock, the construction of Victoria is going very smoothly! With this progress, we can create a city for 5,000 gamers within a month.” Bru was full of optimism.

“Hmm, indeed.” Sherlock nodded.

“Once Victoria City is established and able to survive, we will be able to start smelting and forging. Then we’ll select suitable locations for the gamers to fight bandits and magical beasts. We can also set up an Adventurer’s Guild and share information with the Underworld Adventurer’s Guild. The gamers from Eternal Kingdom and Victoria can compete. On the Surface World, we can intervene in Human affairs, like supporting our nominated candidate to be the ruler of the York Territory. Based on the combat power of the 5,000 gamers, we can take over the York Territory!”

“Using the York Territory as our Stronghold, we will pledge allegiance to a Human Kingdom while forming alliances with the nobles. Then, we will initiate the election process in the Kingdom by using the 5,000 gamers to defeat the Kingdom’s army. After that, we will uphold the election by force and nominate Lilo as the Queen! We will manipulate the history of the Humans... genius plan! Lord Sherlock, I can’t see any benefits for you in building Victoria City!” Bru said to Sherlock enthusiastically.

“If I do things according to what you have said, it won’t be beneficial to me. If we look further than that and use the gamers as a labor force instead of a conquering force, you will find that a stable Stronghold is a much wiser choice.”

Sherlock picked up his cup of bloody chrysanthemum tea and said, “I don’t fancy using violence to solve problems. I want to see the two worlds complementing each other. For example, the Underworld is lacking in wood resources but rich in ores. Even the worthless Diamond Seam ore will be extremely valuable in the Surface World. After processing the abundant gold and silver ore in the Underworld, they will fetch high prices in the Surface World.”

“On the other hand, the Surface World has an abundance of wood resources, which are lacking in the Underworld. All types of hardwood, softwood, and Mana wood can be obtained on the Surface World. Besides, there are cultivated Alchemy materials and Mana materials that cannot be found in the Underworld. If we grow bloody chrysanthemum tea leaves on the Surface World, since it doesn’t require Mana for sustenance, the cost becomes low. That will make us a fortune.”

Sherlock spread out his hands and inhaled deeply before saying, “Bru, don’t you understand? That is unlimited wealth. Controlling the Surface World’s trade and resources will spread our influence to all corners of the Underworld and the Surface World. In the future, my portrait will be on each Magic Stone! Wealth is power.”

“I see. Is Victoria City going to be the future Trading Stronghold?”

Bru said thoughtfully, “After accumulating wealth, we can arm the gamers and purchase gigantic War Beasts. We will then start our conquest from Winterfell!”

“Ah, we’ll discuss this later.” Sherlock picked up a crystal ball that showed the figure of a lone ranger. The words “Marco Polo” were above his head.

“The most important thing is to handle the Plot and integrate the Underworld and Surface World. I’ll arrange for the resources of Eternal Kingdom and Victoria to complement each other.”

“Is Lord Sherlock going to make use of Marco Polo?” Bru asked.

“Why not? Just a simple mission to have him find the way to Victoria. After, we can use missions to have the gamers transport the resources in an endless cycle, rewarding them after completion. Then, the resources can be made into commercial products by the gamers, thus forming a positive loop.”

Bru said excitedly, “Your ideas are terrific! I didn’t think of that. The gamers will find it boring if they only have work missions. I suggest making the transporting and manufacturing of goods Faction Missions. We have to enhance the Plot and increase the conflict between the factions. I suggest destroying a few Dungeons. Winterfell is a good choice. It’s even better to kill off a few characters. What about the Succubus, Evelynn? Sacrifice her since she doesn’t do much work and is sponging off of us.”

Sherlock didn’t respond to Bru’s suggestions. He focused his attention on the crystal ball and Marco Polo, transferring his Mana into the crystal ball.

...

Marco Polo wiped the sweat from his head. He didn’t have the sensation of sweating, but the sweat beads impeded his eyesight.

Marco Polo had traveled on the path indicated by the old district residents for half a day, right after the start of the Third Beta Test.

Marco Polo wasn’t sure how long the journey would take. Previously, when he traveled to Winterfell, it took him a few days.

Marco Polo rested. When he was about to resume his journey, he saw a green beam that made him panic.

Within the light beam, a blurry figure extended his hand towards him and said, “Chosen One, are you willing to accept the mission of your destiny?”
