A man mistakenly becomes the city lord of the land, conquering all the heavens and myriad worlds.

The reason is simple and straightforward.

First: He has seen this work and likes the female characters in it; there's nothing to hide.

Secondly, the 'dead bodies' in this world pose a threat to ordinary people, but in DanMachi, they can be used to farm experience points, just like goblins.

In this country alone, there are probably millions of 'dead bodies'.

The problem is that it's difficult to put them all together.

Fortunately, Chenhai's system has a special function—usurpation.

For example, according to the updated data we just saw, Chenhai's occupancy rate of the "DanMachi" dimension has reached 30%.

It's clear how important 'Orario' is in the DanMachi universe.

The remaining seventy percent...

Chen Hai speculated that it was related to two other secret realms and several countries.

Anyway, Chen Hai had plenty of time and wasn't in a hurry.

Once the invasion rate reaches 100%, any battle or collision that occurs in any corner, region, or location of this world will become Chenhai's experience points.

It's like making the world work for him.

With that thought in mind, Chen Hai watched Loki, Riveria, and Hestia leave the lounge.

Chen Hai initially considered inviting Hestia, but since the Blue Ribbon Goddess needed to go find a friend to repay a debt, he decided against it.

Personal life is also important.

"Ais, we're going to the seventeenth floor next."

"Of course you can, but the monsters there aren't very strong..."

Ais, whose expression remained calm, seemed slightly puzzled.

Chenhai denied

"I'm not asking you to fight the monsters on the seventeenth floor."

"Without any connection to the monsters there? Could it be..."

Ais, who usually doesn't show much emotion, looked surprised.

She had not forgotten what Baili had said at the 'Gods' Meeting'.

"Another world connected to the dungeon?!"

"You guessed right, Ais. I look forward to your future performance."

"I think this is the only possibility... Should we go now? Should we prepare?"

Ais, who had participated in the Clan Expedition Dungeon quest, was very cautious in this regard.

Chen Hai shook his head.

"In a low-intensity world, there's no need to worry about logistics."

"Once we get there, what should I do?"

"What are you best at?"

"fighting."

"That's right."

Chen Hai turned around and walked towards the gate.

"Your first battle after joining the 'Dungeon' will be against those guys from another world."

Upon hearing this, Ais followed Chen Hai with a serious expression.

She never imagined that one day she would be able to fight alongside the 'Dungeon Lord', and that the enemy would be from another world!

Regardless of the actual situation, Ais knew what to do.

She followed Chen Hai, and then kept getting stronger, constantly surpassing her current self.

Orario - Dungeon - Floor 17

Following a system notification, Chen Hai led Ais to a corridor.

There are no monsters here, nor is there any distorted terrain. Instead, the space is illuminated by a strange mineral, as bright as day.

Ais Wallenstein looked around curiously, wanting to know what the other world was like.

Just five seconds later, they reached the end of the corridor and stopped at the right corner.

"We've arrived, Ais."

Upon hearing this, Ais quickly followed.

She soon saw an archway about three meters in diameter in front of Chen Hai.

That was no ordinary archway; its presence seemed out of place, as if it were a crack torn apart from another world.

Through the archway, you can see a lush green forest. Looking ahead along the green sea, a U-shaped building comes into view.

"This looks like the back hill of that 'Fujimi Academy'."

"Do you mean the school?"

Ais remembers that Orario also has classes, but most of them are related to adventurers and dungeons.

Without asking any further questions, she walked to Chen Hai's side and began to observe him carefully.

"The area is too big... Are there buildings in the distance?"

Ais saw several buildings resembling the Tower of Babel beyond the forest.

She muttered to herself, the sword in her hand trembling slightly, not from fear, but from her curiosity being fully aroused.

As the two approached the archway, the surrounding air became moist, and they could almost hear birdsong and the rustling of leaves in the distance.

Ais took a deep breath and felt a fresh atmosphere different from the dungeon; it was a call from another world.

She glanced at Chen Hai, her eyes gleaming with a questioning light, as if to say, 'Can I go in and take a look?'

"Now that we're here, we should investigate."

This answer made Ais very excited.

The two then passed through the archway connecting to another world.

As Ais stepped into the back mountain of Fujimi Academy, the sight before her made her hold her breath.

Sunlight filters through the treetops, creating dappled patterns of light and shadow. The surrounding area is a dense forest, and the ground beneath your feet is soft grass.

However, behind this seemingly calm surface lies an indescribable tension.

Ais keenly sensed the unease in the air; she knew this place wasn't as safe as it seemed.

In the distance, the faint roar of some kind of wild beast could be heard.

Ais gripped her sword tightly, ready for battle.

Although this was unfamiliar territory, she did not let her guard down at all.

rustling...

Not far away, several people dressed in sanitation worker uniforms emerged from the woods.

Their faces were terrifying, blood was flowing from their seven orifices, and their swaying bodies were like marionettes.

"Mr. Chenhai, could those be...?"

"The monsters in this world, after being infected by the virus, will attack all human 'dead bodies'."

"They saw us."

"Yes, if we don't stop them, they might travel from here to the dungeon and then infect the inhabitants of Orario."

Of course, this probability is very low.

After all, most of these undead are not as good as goblins, so how could they possibly break through the seventeenth level in succession?

Unless they bite some careless adventurer, there is a possibility that the virus could spread.

So, does this mean that high-level adventurers can also be infected by the undead virus?

What about gods?

Chen Hai was a little curious, but he decided to focus on the present.

"Ais, do it."

"I understand."

The swordswoman from DanMachi takes a step forward and charges towards the zombie from Highschool of the Dead.

Chapter 32 Saeko Busujima: Magic? Sword Maiden? Is this still a modern city?

The time is afternoon.

Without any warning, the private Fujimi Academy was attacked by 'them'.

Those who were attacked died and came back to life, becoming 'their' partners.

The entire school descended into chaos.

After the disorderly fleeing groups were targeted by 'them', more and more 'them' appeared, accompanied by screams of agony.

The once peaceful campus instantly turned into a bloody hell, with cries of agony filling the air.

Those zombies that are as terrifying as those in the movies are called 'dead bodies'.

Knowing that they wouldn't stop moving unless their heads were destroyed, the survivors took up arms and began fighting for survival.

Saeko Busujima, the ace of the Kendo Club at Fujimi Academy Private School, is one of them.

She was standing in a corridor where there were no 'dead bodies' for the time being, cautiously looking at the main entrance through the window.

Due to the previous attacks and riots, in addition to the infected and mutated students and teachers, many more dead bodies were attracted by the commotion here.

Obviously, it's impossible to leave through the main entrance.

"Help! Someone, please save us!!"

Saeko Busujima suddenly heard cries for help.

"How stupid."

The girl was the first to swear.

To outsiders, Saeko Busujima, as a descendant of a traditional Japanese family, is an outstanding traditional woman who is skilled in cooking, humble and gentle in her dealings with others, and well-versed in the ways of a wife.

If anyone heard her rude language, they would probably find it hard to believe.

But now is not the time to focus on these formalities.

Saeko Busujima pondered whether or not to offer her help.

However, the sound of new footsteps interrupted her thoughts.

A group of 'zombies' dressed in sportswear came into view.

They seemed to be drawn by the cries for help and spotted Saeko Busujima as they passed through the corridor.

“I remember this place is very close to the back mountain, which leads to the parking lot that will be completed soon.”

Saeko Busujima made her judgment.

Unable to help the person in distress, she decided to prioritize escaping the scene.

If you go straight there, you'll definitely be surrounded by even more zombies.

"bring it on."

Exhaling, Saeko Busujima looked at the line of zombies appearing directly in front of her, her expression tense, but a slight smile played on her lips.

She is excited.
