"Stop," Alex said as he saw so many life energy signs in front of them. As expected, they had evolved into something troublesome. Other than a normal bat type monster, there were a few bigger ones. As for the queen, he had yet to see it.
"What are we going to do?" Silvia asked.
"You said you need samples, right? I will catch them. This may lead us to something big."
Silvia thought for a moment and nodded. "I understand."
"Besides, I can see a powerful Spiritual Energy in there. That's my objective, I guess." Alex narrowed his eyes and calculated the route to take the Undying Blaze Root. He also needed to catch a couple of the bigger ones and, most importantly, the queen.
"You two can retreat first." Alex waved his hand and flew forward.
Not far from him was that of a tornado, but if one took a closer look, they would find so many small monsters circling around.
"Should I burn them all? From the look of it, there are at least one hundred thousand monsters there…" Alex thought for a moment and penetrated it with his Spirit Crown without creating a sound.
Boom.
The explosion surprised and made them quite disarray, allowing Alex to sneak inside. He found out that the ground was already dug up, leaving only a tree, one weird monster, and ten bigger bats.
'Let me see, the tree is the Undying Blaze Tree, but the tree itself is not that good of an item, so I will only take the root. And that weird one, I think that's the queen. Time to hunt, I guess?' Alex thought before the queen suddenly roared.
A series of shrieks followed suit before they turned toward Alex as if knowing his existence.
"Seriously?" Alex twitched his eyebrows while using his Pure Fire to cover his body. The monsters that tried to get closer would find themselves burned by the Godly Pure Fire.
At the same time, Alex flew down to the ground, trying to grab the queen.
The ten bigger monsters didn't like it and quickly protected the queen, but Alex had no time to spare. He quickly used his Spiritual Energy to suppress them before capturing them with the Time Box.
He looked at the queen. Unlike the baby body, the queen had an insect body. No, it was the original bat body. Even the bigger ones had a baby body, only a bit older. Thus, he came to a ridiculous conclusion.
"The queen is the original one? There is a possibility that the only monster coming out of the egg was the queen, but this meant there would be many queens on this planet already. It seemed my choice to give this planet power was right. They can develop themselves and fight back. If they win, they will live like where Alicia and Firia were born. It's pretty good. Unfortunately, I can't interfere more than this or else, it will be detrimental for them in the long run as a planet." Alex muttered while storing the queen in the Time Box.
Suddenly, the bats around him let out another series of shrieks before it flew away.
"As expected, there must be another queen elsewhere. Calculating the egg size and the queen's size, there should be at least ten queens. By getting food, which happened to be a human, they gained an army of millions if not tens of millions. This is the fastest but inhuman way to grow." Alex's expression darkened.
[We are on it. Please trust us.]
"I understand." Alex nodded. He then looked at the three and waved his hand, lifting the entire tree, including the root, into the air. Without hesitation, Alex stored it inside his Inventory first because he shouldn't be here for a long time."
After seeing how the monsters had left, Silvia and Axis came to him.
"Mister, are they gone?"
"Yeah. There should be another queen elsewhere…" Alex began explaining about the hypothesis he found.
Silvia later confirmed that there was a possibility about it.
"Anyway, I have done my job. The rest will depend on the strength of the people in this world. For now, I will create dungeons first." Alex shrugged.
"By the way, where are you going to refine your body? If I am not wrong, your body cultivation technique is Undying Fire Body, right?"
"Yes. It's only a body refining, I will probably refine it here before going to the world I promised you." Alex smiled.
"Right? That world is good and has advanced technology. Axis should know about this kind of word because they had so much knowledge."
"I understand, Teacher. I will do everything according to your order." Axis bowed his head.
"I will do it here since the place is empty now. However, I will need to search for the portal all over the planet to plant my dungeon. You don't mind, right?" Alex smiled.
"Of course. I don't have a problem."
Alex then tossed the Time Box to her. "This is to fill your boredom. You should be able to find many things about them."
Silvia widened her eyes, never expecting Alex to hand her the Time Box instead of the sample. This showed the difference of trust Alex put on after the misunderstanding or they got back. "Thank you."
Alex waved his hand and flew outside the world, using his Spirit Eyes to check where he could find the hidden portal.
It should have an enormous amount of energy, so he thought he could easily find it if he took a look at it from Outer Space. And it turned out he was right.
After two hours of searching, Alex saw Space Energy. It was a bit small, so he failed to spot it a few times, but in the end, he could find the fluctuation of the Space Energy and quickly went there.
He arrived in a plain without any living beings. However, he could find so many skeletons around.
"This area has been devastated by those creatures. I don't know if that is a bad omen or something, but that creature is dangerous. If it happens in Eulja and can't be controlled, it will surely turn the world upside down. Regardless, I should continue my job." Alex shook his head and used his Spirit Eyes, finding the portal a bit farther from his location.
It hid inside a forest, covering itself with so many trees to camouflage it.
"I wonder if they have gone to this world or not?" Alex narrowed his eyes. "If the humans have done it, they can survive for a little bit longer and get stronger there. However, if the monsters have gone through this portal, it will be a disaster."
Alex thought for a moment and took out many bottles filled with blood.
He leveled up the entire area as if he tried to dig it down. Although the energy was not enough, his physical ability alone could do the job.
"This is the first time I hold something this big…" Alex couldn't help comment when looking at the giant boulder on his hand. In fact, he should call it a small island instead of a boulder because its length alone was five hundred meters.
Alex paid no heed and began using his Spiritual Energy to help him draw the symbols. At the same time, he made sure to branch out a few things in other directions, so he could spread the Space Energy from this portal to another place.
This would allow him to build several dungeons connected with another world.
It took him ten hours just to draw the arrays and did more than he expected in terraforming, making sure that no one would notice this secret.
After that, he created a four hundred meters hole inside the first platform and planted the man-made dungeon inside.
The dungeon wasn't like the Dungeon God's. It only had fifty levels upward and ten levels underground.
"Let's see…" Alex took out the note Lin Xingzhi gave him about the tower. "This dungeon has fifty levels and ten floors underground. The ten floors are used to connect the entire tower with Spiritual Energy and the other world, allowing them to automatically bring another world's monster to this dungeon.
"This was the smallest dungeon that the Dungeon God had ever created. Well, his reason was to practice this dungeon because he never had the confidence in building this up. He tested it with this small dungeon for a few years. "Do you want to change it to a bigger dungeon?" If yes, send me a message.
"If you don't, you can proceed now."
Seeing that the dungeon was pretty safe, he quickly entered the secret underground layer with his Teleportation Magic and started drawing arrays to set everything up. He already knew what arrays he needed to make, so his job was pretty easy.
After drawing for about ten million symbols, he gradually understood how the Dungeon God created the dungeon. It was a pain to create these many symbols, especially doing it alone.
Activating most of the array, he ran another check to see nothing went wrong.
He then went toward the Portal and went to another world. As he would expect, the portal in this world was in a hidden location or the people from this world would have invaded them.
He didn't want to disturb the people in this world too much nor had the intention to confirm whether the monsters had gone to this world. He simply created millions of symbols underground like his Arrays on the other side before coming back.
Unlike the first dungeon, it didn't take too long for him to finish the array.
It was only after all those he activated all the arrays. The dungeon then began to get surrounded by energy.
"I need to wait a bit." Alex narrowed his eyes, watching the dungeon to see how the monsters got transported to this world.
After an hour or so, he found the first monster, followed by more and more monsters. This meant the dungeon had successfully created.
After that, he went to another place, specifically on the other side of the planet. In this world, he planned to build six dungeons: West, North, East, South, Top, and Bottom.
Since he had understood how to build it, the next five dungeons took faster than the first one. However, he ended up using two whole days just to finish the entire construction.
Luckily, the world population had been reduced, so no one found him building this dungeon, making his work simple.
The moment he completed his task, he stepped on a plain with nothing but rock.
"It's time to call it again." Alex smiled and released his seal, showing his Divine Power.
Suddenly, a Lightning Tribulation was formed on top of his head. The World's Will manifested itself by using this Lightning and asked him, "How are you here, Human?"
'Here it is…' Alex smiled.
