"If it’s just to gather information, that’s what I’m best at!"
"Lord Yang Yuan, choose me."
A large crowd scrambled, everyone wanted the task.
It’s just information gathering, not combat.
"This task still carries certain dangers. How about this: three people who are fast, whether you collaborate or act alone, as long as you gather valuable information, each will receive a hundred Spirit Monster Cores."
Yang Yuan looked at the crowd eager to take the task.
With a whoosh, over ten people stepped forward.
Yang Yuan directly chose the three people with the fastest reflexes and gave each ten Spirit Monster Cores in advance, telling them to set off immediately.
Instantly, the remaining people showed regretful expressions but could only keep their heads down and continue with their work.
"Hmm?"
While laying bricks, Yang Yuan suddenly paused, sensing some kind of fluctuation within the Void Ring.
"This is... the ’Receipt’ Celestial Marvel?"
He flipped his hand to take out the receipt, seeing that many small red characters had appeared on it:
"Mr. Yang Yuan, we have left the Sky Pit."
"However, as we left the Sky Pit, we were suddenly transported by a mysterious force to a mountain in the ancient ruins where the Drought Fiend was originally suppressed, and a girl among us, transformed by the Drought Fiend’s power, has become the Mountain God here."
"By the way, Mr. Yang Yuan, be cautious. According to the Mountain God, this world might be a Game World under construction, and the game officials want to eliminate Conceptual Superpower Users."
"Leader Chen is already making progress in researching Power Armor."
The information from Jia Weixin left Yang Yuan speechless.
’So, they fled for half a year, only to be sent back?’
He found it both funny and sad, sympathizing with Jia Weixin and the others’ predicament.
Knowing now that there’s a Funeral Crow for travel where Jia Weixin and others are, he figured he might visit them when he had time.
However—
A girl transformed by the Drought Fiend’s power became the Mountain God of a mountain in the ancient ruins where the Drought Fiend was suppressed?
’So, all this was indeed orchestrated? The Drought Fiend’s emergence wasn’t accidental, but meant to create the right person to become the Mountain God of that mountain?’
’I killed the Drought Fiend, and the original Mountain God of Mountain God Mountain was also killed by me...’
’Are they using me as a free hitman?’
Yang Yuan’s eyes were obscure, a nameless fire rising in his heart.
’How is that invisible hand controlling me? What if I just don’t move here?’
Thinking of these, he left the city construction area, went to the seaside to catch a red-blooded fish, used some blood to respond on the receipt:
"Received. I’m at the seaside, and there’s also a Mountain God here. I’ll visit you when I have time."
After replying, he returned to the city construction site to continue building the city.
The foundation and underground waterway were completed, next was the city wall.
He planned to build the city wall 6 meters thick, which meant using three sections of two-meter-wide large bricks would be just right.
The height would be about 20 meters.
The foundation was also 20 meters deep, incorporating the underground waterway and biogas pool assembly.
A city wall of 20 meters high, it should be of a considerable size.
During the wall construction, he used a printer to print fine ’lines’ with Spirit Monster Cores as material.
This was the array line, a line to maintain energy circulation.
The array had three main functions: one to transform city waste, second for defense, third for levitation.
Of course, they were just for show now, since the current Array Master wasn’t even at the human level, his array was not much to look at.
But Yang Yuan didn’t mind, as long as the city could generate data and gradually upgrade, it was fine.
By evening, the three Superpower Users returned with news.
"Sir, something big happened, something big happened on Mountain God Mountain. The original Mountain God, that is, Leader Yan Chenggong, is indeed dead."
"Yes, not only dead, but I heard he was killed by his own people, by that Lingde who came to us before, but we don’t know exactly how he was killed."
"There is now another Mountain God over there, the new Mountain God is the wife of Leader Yan Chenggong, seems to be called Lu Mei?"
The three information-gathering Superpower Users brought back explosive news.
"Lingde killed Yan Chenggong?"
Yang Yuan felt suspicious, without Godslayer’s Divine Charm, what would qualify Lingde to kill a Mountain God?
He had seen Lingde’s superpower before, the other seemed like a fire-type superpower user, could they have some special Marvel?
"But it is said that Lingde also died, and died horribly."
"By the way, sir, the new Mountain God asked us to convey a message: if you are interested in an alliance, Mountain God Mountain welcomes it."
"The new Mountain God also mentioned that she would personally visit you when she has the chance."
This was all the information the three gathered, they truly did their best.
Yang Yuan paid off the remaining balances and gave them extra Spirit Monster Cores to continue gathering information, serving as the information hub between Sunshine Coast and Mountain God Mountain.
The three Superpower Users were naturally very willing, after all, they almost did nothing but could still earn money.
Moreover, all the dangers on this road had been cleared earlier by Yang Yuan, so there was nearly no danger now.
Initially, Yang Yuan thought that even with a city, with so many people helping, it should be built in five days.
