Volume 11 Chapter 673: A Completely different Genre

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The group still rushed through the floors since they would have time for them later. As they got deeper, the temperature became higher and higher. From the 44th floor, streams of lava could be seen here and there, and by the 46th floor, there were rivers of them.

As for monsters, it ranged from giant scorpions to Wyverns with either fire, poison, or both attributes.

The 47th floor was also a large chamber similar to the 33rd floor, but a little bit bigger. In the middle was a pond of Lava where the Surtr was supposed to spawn in three weeks. Thanks to their fast travel, it only took them a whole day to reach this place, where it was normally reachable in five days.

Yoruichi didn't stop walking and said, "We'll show you the secret room later. For now, let's set up our base of operations first, and maybe add a teleportation site for easier access in the future."

The group went around the lake of lava and reached the staircase that led to the safety point.

The moment they stepped into the 48th floor, the temperature became a lot better as if an invisible barrier was dividing the two zones. With a pleasant tropical breeze, the safety point resembled the 18th floor of the Orario Dungeon, but without the giant tree in the middle and the floor was much wider and higher.

"Where should we place the base, nyaa? I don't think the center is a good idea since a Monster Rex variant may spawn from there," asked Kuroka.

Kisuke surveyed the entire floor and said, "The median between the wall and the center is good. It'll also be nice if it's far from the path leading to the lower floors."

Yoruichi then pointed towards the small hill on the west side of the floor, "That's a good place. Aside from a good hideout, It's also far from the exits and entrances."

"Isn't that the spot that others use to set their camps, nyaa?"

Yoruichi grinned and replied, "That's true, but that doesn't mean we can't use it for ourselves... permanently."

The group arrived at the location Yoruichi proposed and Kisuke further surveyed the area. A few minutes later, Kisuke nodded his head in satisfaction, "This is a good spot~!"

He then faced Yoruichi and said, "Please pass the purse to Kuroka."

Yoruichi reached out to her vest while asking, "The one that Serafall sent to you before we went to the Dungeon?" She found the said purse and tossed it to the confused Kuroka.

"A space bag?" asked Kuroka, not looking inside until she got permission.

Kisuke nodded and said, "Yep. Please take out a portion of its contents."

Since it's an incredibly compressed space, Kuroka closed her eyes to concentrate so that she wouldn't break the 'container'. Once she was able to insert her consciousness within the bag, she immediately opened her eyes back in shock, "W-what is this, nyaa!? Where did you get all of this!?"

Inside the purse was a hard to count amount of processed Orichalcum, Adamantium, and some other materials that could be used for constructing a building.

"I had Sera-tan get a bit of it from our good neighbor," Kisuke replied with a large grin.

"Neighbor?" mumbled Kuroka before a certain place came to her mind, "The Knossos?"

"Yep~ And we can certainly get more in the future since they're very good neighbors~!"

Kuroka couldn't help but feel a tiny bit of pity for them, 'A thousand years of effort, only to be dismantled by this hoodlum.'

Kuroka then took out a small portion of the Orichalcum and Adamantium alongside the other necessary materials. Even then it still formed two small hills.

Kisuke excitedly approached the pile and said, "I'll probably need a lot of Magic Stone to construct the base since I can't use my reserves. Conveniently, there's an almost inexhaustible supply of it upstairs~!"

Yoruichi and Kuroka looked at each other before sighing. It looked like they wouldn't be able to stop this maniac from building something that sticks out like a sore thumb. Leaving their luggage, the two of them returned to the previous floor to hunt.

Three days later, Kisuke had finally finished their base. While Kisuke looked at his own creation with satisfaction, Yoruichi and Kuroka could only have to twitch their mouths in shock. They were already expecting something that didn't suit the place, but they never thought it's going to go beyond that.

"It's a completely different genre, nyaa!!!" Kuroka retorted on top of her lungs.

Since Kisuke covered his 'project' with invisibility magic so that he could surprise them. Yoruichi and Kuroka had no idea what he was trying to create nor had they pried beyond the cover of the magic.

The base that Kisuke built was actually composed of two parts. The first one was a 400 meters tall skyscraper and the second one is a 150 meters wide dome. But that isn't the problem as they were already expecting something like this when they saw the amount of materials that Kisuke had. What they didn't expect, however, was the overall aesthetics of the buildings.

With a white theme, the windowless building was shaped like the tip of a single-edged sword with streaks of blue lights. On its base was a complicated structure with a single large entrance that would overwhelm everyone who came close to it.

As for the dome, it had a simpler structure but still follows the same aesthetics of the skyscraper with transparent hexagonal panels as its roof.

"It looks like a sci-fi spaceship rather than a building, nyaa! Anyone who looks at it would definitely say 'aliens'!" Kuroka added.

Kisuke then looked at her with a stunned expression, "What're you talking about? We're aliens."

Kuroka made the same expression and said, "Ah... You're right."

Yoruichi, on the other hand, could only mutter with a defeated expression, "You really pulled out all stops, huh?"

Kisuke chuckled and started walking towards their new base, "Come with me~ I'll give you a tour~"

Reaching the base of the building, Yoruichi and Kuroka came to a very sci-fiesque lobby, complete with monitors that could be used for announcements and some other information.

Kisuke continued, "This is the lobby and where all the general use teleportation stations. Each floor has two teleportation circles that are connected here for fast travel. Of course, there are also elevators but I doubt those are going to be used much."

"General use, you say. Are you planning to rent out the place?" asked Yoruichi.

"Yep. There are a total of 69 floors and more than half of them could be used for residential purposes. It'll be a shame if we can't use all of them."

"It's your fault for making a stupidly large building that is capable of housing at least a thousand people, nyaa. But 69, huh.... I see that it's done on purpose."
