Before attacking Baron Gustav, the dungeon on Floor 1 was filled with beginner level hunters. After Isaac returned, their number was three times more than before. As a result, many monsters on Floor 1 were killed. It forced him to keep buying more monsters. Even though the monster birth rate was high, it took time for the baby monsters to grow and be ready to fight.

The zenny cycle between income and expenditure moved quickly. Isaac didn’t get any loss, but he still wanted to optimize his income.

The trick was by building an exp grinding area.

Isaac ordered his monster to build a monument at some point. The monument had special effects within a radius of 500 meters. Every human who killed a monster in that area would receive an additional bonus experience.

If normally they needed to kill 100 monsters to get to level 2, then they just needed to kill 50 monsters in the exp grinding area. Humans could level up faster without having to kill a lot of monsters.

That way, at least Isaac could cut the death about half. Besides, the harvest time was faster.

Of course, Isaac would have imposed a limit on the effect of the monument to prevent humans from exploiting it. The special effects on the monument would not work on hunters who were above level 15. So they had the initiative to go up to the next floor.

To actualize his plan, Isaac ordered the dwarves and elves to work together. The dwarves would build the monuments that had buff effects, while elves would amplify the effects of the buffs issued by the monuments.

Unlike the dwarves, who were very skilled in crafting, the elves tended to be varied. The very high level of intelligence of the elves made them able to explore various fields; gathering, beast taming, magic, and even combat.

However, the most famous among them was their skill in creating runes. Rune were the symbols that could activate magic. It was like a master key to activate items.

The combination of elves and dwarves would create an extraordinary item.

“So far, how many monuments have been built?”

“Only 10 monuments, Lord,” Pippi replied.

Isaac nodded.

He planned to spread the monument to 72 points. With each point, there were three categories.

The first area was a high exp bonus area. Every time a human killed a monster in that area, they would get a 20% exp bonus. The second area got a 50% exp bonus and the current area was 70%. Of course, the higher the bonus exp given, the more dangerous the monsters were.

The goal was, of course, to balance the number of hunter populations on each floor.

Unnatural hunter development was also not good for the dungeon. Because if a high-level hunter rose to the top floor in massive numbers, it was the same as accepting enemy troops attacking Isaac’s own fort.

He needed to be careful about raising humans in his dungeon.

“Good, you did a good job. I want to improve the development process,” said Isaac.

Pippi smiled widely. “Yes, my lord.”

Then, the smile on Pippi’s face turned to curiosity. She just realized Isaac’s appearance wasn’t different from usual. He wore a black suit with his hair slicked to the back.

“Lord, why do you wear human clothes? Are you leaving again?”

“Yes. I’m going out for a few days. There are things I need to confirm in the human world.”

Ever since Isaac heard Adelia’s story about the homunculus, he couldn’t get it out of his mind. Isaac wanted to go visit the Nine Sky to check the condition of his second troop, especially Guo Chen’s development.

He also wanted more detailed information about the dungeon in Tianjin.

“Aye aye, Lord.” Pippi smiled widely.

Before leaving his dungeon, for the last time he confirmed the construction process again. Not long after, his body glowed and cracked like fireflies.

The smile on Pippi’s face then disappeared. Her gaze turned back to the elves and dwarves who had stopped working. They used Isaac and Pippi’s conversation to rest.

Of course, Pippi turned furious.

“You lazy bastard! Back to work!”

After Isaac conquered Baron Gustav’s dungeon, the journey to Beijing was very fast.

The condition of the base looked magnificent as usual. However, it looked quiet inside. Usually, the hall was filled with hunters carrying weapons, but now it seemed that there were only normal employees there.

This sight was enough to make Isaac frown

‘Where did they go? Are they raiding? But, I didn’t receive a report from Kirnish that they entered the dungeon.’

In Beijing there was only one dungeon, that was Isaac’s. He then walked over to the administration desk, requesting access to meet Wang Yi.

For five minutes Isaac stood in front of the administration desk, then a woman with long black hair in formal clothes came over to Isaac. She seemed to have difficulty wearing high heels. Her face was pale as if he was exhausted from working hard.

“Brother Isaac, it’s good to see you back.” Despite saying that, Wang Yi’s facial expression didn’t look that way. “Why did you come here all of a sudden? At least contact me first so I can properly greet you.”

“My phone broke during the dungeon raid,” Isaac replied.

Wang Yi sighed. “I understand. I’ll buy you more later.”

Hearing Wang Yi’s words, the female administrative officer raised her eyebrows. She was really surprised, a Guild Master’s younger sister being polite towards a stranger. Moreover, she was willing to go down 30 floors to meet Isaac. Though, with her own older sister, she had never made it this far.

It was as if Isaac’s position was much higher than Wang Yi’s.

“Wang Yi, where are the other humans? The place has become quieter than usual.”

His question made Wang Yi look even more pale. Sadness rose from her face. She took a deep breath.

“They disappeared in the dungeon, including my sister.”
