There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 520, Mushroom World

The homeland of the green elves.

It has been requisitioned.

Xiao Yang and the Holy Light Boss have reached an agreement.

Members of the Church of Holy Light have been gradually moving into this world recently.

They began to verify the figures that Xiao Yang had brought out of the Ghost World.

However, in the end, not many of those whom Xiao Yang brought back to the Lost Ones successfully returned.

He did not accurately verify the identities of the people he rescued.

The final figures were determined by the Church of Holy Light.

"Three million six hundred and eighty thousand two thousand four hundred."

This is a specific number.

They are not all human; they are a mix of various races, and most of them possess special talents or are at a high level.

Together they form a formidable force, especially considering they were all rescued by Xiao Yang.

Those guys in the Ghost Cave are no saints.

Whether it was looted or obtained through other means.

One thing is certain.

"When they arrive at the Ghost World, they are basically already dead in some sense in the heavens."

"Unless a miracle occurs, their fate is basically sealed."

Death comes in many forms.

When friends, relatives, regions, countries, and civilizations that have left their mark reach a consensus, then living is also dying.

Until Xiao Yang suddenly barged in.

"And then a miracle really happened."

He waved his arms with great enthusiasm, telling the priests in white robes where his home was.

It was registered.

The Church of Holy Light is considered a powerful and influential force in the heavens.

Within a few days, they will verify the registered information one by one and then try to communicate with the relevant parties.

"If everything goes well, I'll be able to go home soon."

"If all goes well."

It has been three months since Xiao Yang brought them back from the Ghost World.

Xiao Yang will reimburse the full amount of travel expenses.

They don't even care about the cost; as long as they can be sent back, they'll open a portal to another dimension. That's how tyrannical they are.

There is still something left in this world.

"One million two hundred and sixty-one thousand three hundred and twenty-seven."

As time passed, the initial excitement and joy among the crowd gradually dissipated.

An indescribable sense of gloom began to brew.

Some of those who were captured may have been missing for more than 60 years, or over 50 years.

even longer.

Such a timeframe is not short, even for long-lived species.

"Hope is slim."

………….

Temporary camp.

A man with three eyes sat quietly at a long table.

Before him stood a priest of holy light dressed in a golden robe, holding a thin document in his hand.

I felt very uneasy and kept trying to raise my head, but I would quickly lower it again.

With a hunched back and cautious movements, his demeanor and actions unconsciously carried a tendency to ingratiate himself.

This is the mark left on him by his previous owner.

Having been a slave for a long time, he was always hunched over.

He looked like a little old man who couldn't lift his head.

The thin document drew his gaze like a magnet.

But he didn't dare ask any more questions.

"Priestess Beatrice, is there any accurate information?"

"Do I... do I still have a home?"

Finally, unable to hold back any longer, he asked a question.

He raised his head once again.

Extremely forceful.

He needs good news.

This last bit of hope may be what sustains their numb body and soul.

Unfortunately, the Holy Light Priest opposite him shook his head, his face etched with obvious sorrow.

All the words were received by Emi.

Soon after, another dazed fellow appeared in the camp.

[7XG54 Dimensional Report]
Discoverer: Astral Wanderer
Inhabitants of this plane: Three-eyed Yajin

Current state: Destroyed
Destruction Report: Destroyed by the retreating Ghost Cave fleet during the Church of Truth's attack on raiders at the edge of the region.

………….

"One million two hundred and sixty-one thousand three hundred and twenty-seven."

The remaining numbers are as follows.

It came in more than I expected.

When this number was delivered to Xiao Yang.

For a moment, Xiao Yang was also at a loss as to how to settle them.

If you just keep them as pets...

"It's not a big burden."

Xiao Yang has an entire empty world.

One million two hundred and sixty thousand people may seem like a lot, but when truly integrated into a complete world, they are not even a drop of water.

Xiao Yang simply didn't know if they were willing to accept such a proposal.

"Perhaps there is a better resettlement plan."

Xiao Yang came here to discuss this matter with the Holy Light Boss.

He could spend a sum of spirit coins to send these guys to the Nexus of the Heavens, letting them choose whether to wander through the various worlds of the heavens to heal their wounds or continue searching for their homeland.

Alternatively, they could request the Church of Holy Light to take them in.

The healing methods of the Church of Holy Light are still trustworthy.

"Let's first finalize a rough agreement with the Holy Light boss, and then let them choose for themselves."

Ultimately, Xiao Yang made this decision.

Actually, there is an even better way to handle this.

Throw them into the rotten land.

That's just how it is, a bit too devilish.

"The Rotten Land is the kind of place where once you're tainted, you can't escape its allure."

………….

A green world, a temporary camp.

Xiao Yang appeared here.

The Holy Light Lord took the arrangements for these fallen people very seriously, and he had been staying in this temporary camp for the past few months.

Xiao Yang paused outside a simple mushroom-shaped house.

This world has completely become the domain of mushrooms.

Those giant mushrooms that grow towards the sky and gradually become fibrous.

"A very good building material."

I wonder if it's because Xiao Yang messed with this world too much before.

After the ecosystem recovered, the extraordinary nature of this green world began to explode.

The extraordinary tides began to surge.

The world is showing signs of leapfrogging; it has great potential.

The most remarkable achievement was the countless extraordinary mushrooms that sprouted up.

Unfortunately, Xiao Yang didn't have many people he could send out.

Even if the world has potential and produces decent resources, we lack the capacity to further develop it.

Ninety-nine percent of the area is in a state of desolation and unchecked growth, coinciding with the mushroom season currently taking place around the world.

Some concerns have arisen.

Concerns about these mushrooms.

E.g.

"Some deadly fungi with particularly strong infection and aggressiveness."

or.

"A special kind of fungal, Geta-like life."

"Mushroom Catastrophe?"

Fortunately, so far, nothing strange has been born in this special environment.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

Just as Xiao Yang was gazing at the mushroom-shaped tree on the side.

It trembled slightly.

"Ok?"
