Reality and games are different.

  After crossing over into this world, Zhan Yan once again deeply understood this point.

  In the game, he didnt need to consider other issues, as long as he pulled out enough space for those goblins to dig holes, and then he could build various rooms with just money. However, in reality, he didnt have such benefits, digging holes here not only had to consider space but also had to consider load-bearing, windproofing, dust-proofing and other troublesome issues.

  Although Zhan En read many books in the demon tribes library, unfortunately, for this kind of low-ranking ethnic work content, the demon tribe would not waste time recording it, so Zhan En also had no way to become a master builder.

  At first, Zhan also thought about digging out a piece of land directly, but after connecting three times and almost burying himself underneath, he finally temporarily gave up his idea of opening up new territory and instead relied on natural caves to build his underground city.

  As for other places, let those goblins deal with it themselves.

  Unfortunately, it seems that letting them continue on their own wont yield a good outcome either.

  "Ding———"

  Just then, a faint sound suddenly reached Zhan Ens ears, and immediately afterwards, a line of system text appeared in front of him.

  Youve finally realized that without a qualified architect, your fate will be to be buried alive in a collapsed cave one day. To ensure you dont die an unjust death, you need a powerful helper - Mission: Recruit an Architect (Reward: 100 experience, can craft Summoning Crystal)

  Is this system really here to scam its own users?

  Although he had long known about the evil intentions in the system, Jian still furrowed his brow and stared intently at the task before him.

  This was not the first time Jian had received such a task. In fact, almost every day, the system would randomly assign him a task. And these tasks were often strange and varied, with all sorts of things.

  For example, "You gaze into the abyss of darkness, feel the call of your heart, and theres an impulse that drives you to break free from bondage, experience the thrill of flying - jump off the cliff, enjoy the pleasure of being dead." And so on.

  Strictly speaking, the system wont give Zhan En tasks that are beyond his capabilities. Jumping off a cliff looks very dangerous, but below is the Abyss of the Demon Realm. Apart from falling into subspace and having fun picking up soap with countless demons, theres no other danger.

  Expressing love is simple, the only problem is that shes my sister and a dragon hybrid... Hmm, if I dont consider the consequences, it might still be possible.

  If you dont consider the consequences.

  "Master, whats your idea?"

  The soft and melodious voice of the girl brought Jan back to reality, he turned his head, looking at his deputy officer, then quietly pushed his glasses.

  "It seems we really need someone with expertise in architecture."

  At this point, Zhan En paused for a moment.

  "If all else fails, Ill make a trip to Brandons Rock City."

  Upon hearing Zhan Ens words, there was no change in the girls expression; she simply nodded.

  "The dwarves are indeed excellent architects underground, and Ive also heard that theyre often hired by the dark elves or other subterranean races to build cities. However... ...the dwarves have always been known for their cunning and treachery, although as a demon, they shouldnt dare do anything to you, but its still better to be cautious."

  "I understand."

  As he heard the girls words, Zhan En nodded his head. He couldnt help but fix his gaze on the girl, and soon, a character information bar quickly appeared beside her in Zhan Ens eyes.

  Enoa Alkunis (Silver)

  Zhan En withdrew his gaze, then reached out and gently stroked the girls hair. The smooth, silky sensation beneath was icy, bearing the breath of death. She was not a living being, nor a creature. But to Zhan En, the girl before him was his only subordinate, kin, and comrade.

  Feeling Jans caress, Enya narrowed her eyes like a kitten, but soon, her ears twitched slightly. The next moment, the girl who was originally lazy like a kitten, restored her usual calmness.

  "Master, I think we have guests arriving."

  Just like the surface, the dark underground has many races. Including bear-like creatures, gray dwarves, spirit-absorbing monsters and dark elves, but here is more dangerous than the surface, no matter which path you take, there may be fatal dangers. Even for demons, in such a place, they must also be careful - after all, nothing is more embarrassing than capsizing in a ditch.

  Although the location of Jenns underground city is considered a remote area by the demon tribe, there are also crises here. Around Jenns underground city, there are nests of fire lizards, dens of bear goblins and tribes of terror claws, all of which are very terrifying monsters. Not to mention that the cities of gray dwarves and bear goblins are also nearby. If one is not careful, Jenns underground city may face an unprecedented disaster.

  Fortunately, this place is far away from the city of dark elves. Although in the demon world, dark elves are generally the most trustworthy slaves and subordinates of the demon tribe, but for demons like Zhan En who are not strong enough, they are the best prey.

  The underground is dangerous.

  Now, Becks felt the meaning of this sentence more than ever before.

  At this moment, she was walking among a group of heavily armed mercenaries with a mournful face. As a dwarf, she wasnt unaware of the dangers lurking in the dark. However, the dwarfs damned curiosity still got her into trouble. If it werent for searching for that so-called "legendary crystal", she wouldnt have left the city alone and run to Crystal Creek Valley. As a result, she was caught off guard by this group of mercenaries.

  The mercenaries underground are not good things, they are mostly half-orcs and bear gnomes, rough, greedy but powerful. A dwarf has no resistance in front of them. Bixie already knows her fate, she will be sold as a slave, although the buyer is unknown, but Bixie is sure that her days will not be too good.

  The stone is on top... Id rather die here.

  Just as this group of mercenaries were enthusiastically discussing how much money they could get for the dwarf, something unexpected happened.

  BOOM!!

  With a loud rumble, the ground began to shake. The crowd turned around in surprise and only then did they realize that behind them, the passage had been completely blocked by thick stone slabs, leaving no way out.

  "Whats going on? Whats happening?"

  This sudden unexpected event also left others in extreme astonishment, they hastily turned their heads to look around, but at the same time. Only a "whoosh" sound was heard, and the originally pitch-black underground passage suddenly became extremely bright. As far as the eye could see, burning torches illuminated the originally dark path, and the place that was originally shrouded in darkness also revealed its true appearance.

  Strange patterns and reliefs emerged from the stone walls, flat paths stretching out in all directions. In the corners of the walls, evil stone statues posed in ferocious postures, glaring at intruders as if they would come to life the next moment and tear their enemies apart.

  "Dungeon!!"

  A blood-curdling scream burst forth from the lead half-orc mercenary, and upon hearing this, the crowd also erupted into chaos.

  All living beings that live underground know of the existence of the underground city, it is the lair of the evil overlord, the castle of the demon king, filled with deadly traps, terrifying monsters and incredibly powerful demons. Any rational underground creature would absolutely not want to meet these terrible guys!

  "Run away quickly!!"

  At this moment, the retreat was blocked, and those half-beasts and bear-like creatures suddenly went crazy. Several half-beasts frantically waved their hands and rushed to the side passage in a panic.

  "Crack!"

  Just as the several half-beasts rushed into the passage, a faint sound was heard. The next moment, dozens of sharp steel thorns suddenly emerged from the ground that had been empty just before. In the blink of an eye, those tall half-beasts were thoroughly pierced from bottom to top and turned into a pile of bloody corpses.

  And seeing this, the other mercenaries went crazy, they seemed to avoid the plague and stayed far away from that passage. A few clever ones even turned around and ran back, wanting to open up the original retreat route that had been sealed off.

  Unfortunately, they still made a wrong choice.

  "Hmph………"

  Just as the goblin-like creatures were rushing towards the entrance sealed by the stone gate, a faint sound was heard, and a dark green poisonous mist suddenly burst out of thin air, forming a dense and deadly fog that completely enveloped the goblins. The goblins consumed by the toxic mist didnt even have time to struggle, covering their throats in agony, before falling to the ground with a thud, never to breathe again.

  Originally a mercenary group of over ten people, now only less than five are left. This sudden change has also shocked the half-beast warrior who was leading them. However, having experienced two waves of cannon fire before, he didnt dare to make any rash moves again. He could only grip his battle axe and stand back-to-back with the remaining few companions, vigilantly gazing around in all directions.

  As for Becks, they had long since been thrown to the back of their minds.

  "Dong...... Dong......"

  Footsteps sounded.

  At the sound of footsteps, the half-beast mercenary gripped his weapon tightly, his eyes wide with wonder, staring in the direction of the sound. And under the gaze of the half-beast mercenary, a thin figure wearing a black robe slowly emerged from the middle.
