Chapter 354 Homesteading in a fantasy world

It took me three more trips into the forest before I was finally able to rank up my logging skills. To complete this task, it still took me over a week, as I truly had quite a lot of responsibilities, especially after what happened yesterday with my dungeon.

Yet, I had still not picked an ability from the three I was offered. This was the first time I was truly uncertain as to which one of the three offered I should pick.

Lumber Grading Eye, Energy Chain, Barkskin. Three choices, ...

Chapter 79 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

POV Enn

I looked upon my colony members. We were once just individual champions, kicked out of our old colonies or some who even left on their own to pursue their own dreams. We used to be individuals who no longer had the purpose of a colony. Now instead, we had discovered our own purpose.

Ants weren’t meant to be like that. That’s why we now have a new colony, one of our very own. We didn't have a lot of members, but we were strong, and we had a common purpose that we were a...

Chapter 353 Homesteading in a fantasy world

I was sitting cross-legged in the watchtower that was close to the barn and the main house. It was currently snowing, as it always was. The rainy season technically didn’t end; it just transformed into a snowing season. Never in my long life have I seen so much snow before. If things kept going like this, every house would be completely buried.

Next to me was a ballista, not built by me but by a branch of our military. The most interesting thing about this weapon was that it was not j...

Chapter 78 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

Finally, I was done with expanding the 18th floor; it was truly a monster. Over 8000 kilometers in length and nearly 5000 in width. Reducing the height truly adds a lot. Yet, so much was still left to do, but I was surprised it only took me five months to achieve this.

During this time, a few odd things have happened in my dungeon. For one thing, there was a surge of new shadow guilds that seemed to be more interested in training than actually fighting deeper into my dungeon. They were ...

Chapter 352 Homesteading in a fantasy world

"You know, there is no reason why we have to make larger villages. It could be more efficient to have even smaller ones, but more of them. It would be especially good for forestry, as this way we wouldn't harvest too much in a single location," one of those who was in charge of resource management for the nation said.

That sounded interesting, and perhaps the same thing could be done with the mines. I started to look more at the singular metal veins found which were good enough and a lo...

Update

Unfortunately my health is getting worse so chapter updates can be unpredictable and like today there will only be one chapter and not two like usuals. i hope that things will turn around, :)

Chapter 77 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

I was having some difficulty deciding on what dimensions I should be expanding on the 18th floor. I mainly wanted a desert environment with oases all around, but did I also want mountains? Mountains would be a good way to connect to the underground tunnels because I couldn’t make loose sand.

Well, actually, I think I could if I used dungeon rules. I will definitely make a few underground caverns like that; mostly, I would still want to make them into solid rock, but they would just lo...

Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground” Kindle Book release

So yesterday was way too busy but my book was published on kindle.  link down bellow. There isn't differences in the versions so there really is no need to buy it. But its still quite existed :) This would have not been possible without all of you. Thank you.

Chapter 351 Homesteading in a fantasy world

After the funeral, things quieted down quite a lot, especially because of the constant rain. While being home was nice, I couldn’t hide away much longer without attending to my other duties.

Teaching was quite relaxing, and it seemed that even more people wanted me to teach them energy control, especially to acquire the energy storage stat. I looked at my achievement page with a bit of sadness.

During the war, I was a bit too busy, and afterwards, I hadn’t noticed, but I didn�...

Chapter 76 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

POV Ace

I leaned against the railing of my bedroom balcony, looking over the city. I found it difficult to understand what had happened to the few lonely buildings this place started out as, and what it had now become.

Last week, it officially received the designation of a city, as there are more than 15,000 people living here, and from our records, soon to be 20,000 inside the dungeon. None of the original buildings still survive.

The amount of people living here is only po...

Chapter 350 Homesteading in a fantasy world

I needed to take a break from harvesting, as I was needed for an experiment. The portal engineer working on energy-type portals had finally finished a small, one-person version that he had just finished building between our capital and the regional capital of the new land we conquered.

The town designated as a regional capital was at the mouth of a large river and against the sea. Currently, the portal was built in a warehouse, but this was just a temporary measure. Eventually, we would...

Chapter 75 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

Enn had done quite well for herself. After she realized what the ruins meant, it was quite fun to watch her form her own team and how they, over the years, slowly grew in number. Even after all this time, they were still quite far from repairing the structure she found in the first ruins.

I was a bit disappointed in her and her team, but I understood why they were taking it slowly; they didn't want a huge nation to come in and take away their fun. They had less to worry about than they ...

Chapter 349 Homesteading in a fantasy world

It was actually quite refreshing to feel like a human again, as I was sleeping now every night, and that seemed to be helping me recover a bit faster. Every few days, a healer also comes and helps with their magic, but having such a powerful body as mine comes with negative aspects as well, especially when it actually gets hurt.

I still can't believe that they actually managed to damage my bones, but I guess it makes sense because rank two people could fight against dragons, so it makes...

Chapter 74 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

The last month or so was quite exciting, but now, with the final fight over and Carl and Tristan having won, it was finally time to open up the 17th-floor dungeon rooms. Especially because ace was actually able to bring me quite a lot of plants and creatures from the sea.

Some of the fish were quite large, especially something called a giant tuna. They could weigh up to a ton. But there apparently was a problem with bringing in larger creatures; stuff that weighed tons and couldn't even...

Chapter 348 Homesteading in a fantasy world

Val and Tim were excellent companions for my first night back, but they are going to sleep as it was late into the night. The world around me was quite quiet, but I could still hear some of the night creatures going about their business.

It was peaceful sitting near the slowly moving river, and I always found it hard to accept such peace could be part of this world when just a few weeks ago we were constantly battling.

I certainly know that when this happened to me for the first t...

Chapter 73 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

POV Carl

I watched as Tristan forced down the jerky we got from the orc monsters. It was quite funny how he could barely stomach eating it, while I was simply glad I could eat. I had expected my perspective to have changed after eating good food for so long, but it seems that no matter what I eat, it still tastes good. A full stomach is always better than an empty one.

My thoughts shifted to the future. I was incredibly nervous about the coming challenge, but excited as well, beca...

Chapter 347 Homesteading in a fantasy world

While the actual war was finally over, I unfortunately couldn’t just go home. They still needed me to be the high general. Fortunately, most of the soldiers could be sent back, but we still needed to occupy and claim ownership of the defeated nation of Aetherhold.

While the people didn’t see actual war, they lost a lot of people, not just during the war but before it. It seems that the coming of religion wasn't as nice as I had expected, and before we got here, there was a lot of ki...

Chapter 72 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

Almost immediately after Ace left, I decided to expand the 17th-floor dungeon room's underwater section. I felt that it might be a mean thing to do, but for some reason, I find it incredibly satisfying whenever Ace gets frustrated.

Now, hopefully, he will bring me the plants and creatures I want before he discovers what I have done. But just in case, I did make this an out-of-the-way section and made sure no one actually needed to do this if they didn't want to.

For the creatures,...

Chapter 346 Homesteading in a fantasy world

POV Rich

I watched as the general left after a brief silence between us. People now knew the time crunch we were under no longer mattered. It was finally over. Goddamnit, that was simply horrible. The question was, am I still sane?

Why did I put myself through so much pain and misery? Why couldn’t that asshole just have died earlier? Everything still hurts. The worst offenders were the first beam attack I took and the last. Then, of course, there was my left arm that was almost ...

Chapter 71 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

Time continued to fly by while I was having quite a lot of fun. Making the 17th-floor dungeon rooms was quite enjoyable, especially designing the raid rooms. Out of the 60,000 rooms, 118 will be raid rooms, with three of them being secret ones that require difficult quests to be completed before an adventurer can gain access.

10 will be meant for 200-person raids and will only be available twice a year. They will also have basically the best rewards you could get from my dungeon, and I ...

Chapter 345 Homesteading in a fantasy world

Just before Rich started his speech to hopefully terrify the enemy leader, he needed to do one more thing with his achievement page. Up till now, his adventure class was sitting at level 80, there waiting to be ranked up after he chose a skill or an ability from the enormous list available at every milestone.

To survive what was coming, he picked an ability called Trinity Resonance. It was a famous ability, and something he truly contemplated picking earlier, but now he had no option bu...

Chapter 70 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

Finally, the 17th floor space expansion was done. I did experiment a little bit and found that the floors didn’t have to be oval-shaped or even uniform, but right now I continued the way I have been doing things.

I now had a huge empty space that I could fill with anything I wanted to. I kept the height at 1.5 kilometres as I needed the extra space the 500-metre height just couldn’t give me. The length of the floor was now just shy of 5000 kilometres and width almost 4000 kilometres...

Chapter 344 Homesteading in a fantasy world

Organising so many soldiers took time, something the leader of Aetherhold didn't want to give his enemies. He tried to get Rich to fight them again as he was certain that they could finally kill him, but with the three armies combined and the leaders of the two other nations there.

He simply didn't have the manpower. He had spent it on trying to kill Rich. To draw him out now without risking being surrounded would be impossible. And then, when Rich really showed up, he wasn’t certain ...

Chapter 69 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

All of the hundreds of coin designs were ready. I did even add to all of them 017, meaning those coins were dropped when I was 17 floors deep. The numbers were small so no one would mistake them for the bigger numbers representing some of the larger coin values.

Unfortunately, while everything was ready, I still needed to wait almost two weeks before I could begin giving them out as loot drops. The reason for the wait was quite obvious: I needed the annoying person to be inside my dunge...

Chapter 343 Homesteading in a fantasy world

Rich was in a horrible condition. He had multiple wounds that were slowly bleeding, and they were only doing that slowly because he was using energy as bandages. He couldn’t drink another healing potion as he was already at his limit, so drinking more would do more harm than help.

Yet, he still continued to stand ready to once again fight if the enemy's top hitters decided to do anything against him or the army to his right that was currently fighting. The battle had been extremely ex...

Chapter 68 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

It was now time to start expanding the new floor. It was going to be a lot of work, but I was going to enjoy it. I could also mess with my dungeon rules and sub-dungeons. But there was no hurry to do that right now.

I also didn’t want to stretch myself too thin, as I still wanted to observe things happening inside my dungeon as much as possible. I had only just started when already there were adventurers challenging the new floor guardian.

Of course, they were a part of the Runn...

Chapter 342 Homesteading in a fantasy world

POV Rich

That blue-haired fucker and his shield once again blocked me, but this time I didn’t try to cut through it. Instead, I made sure that the strike would deliver as much blunt energy as possible. That pushed him back half a step, giving me a moment to look around.

They were closing in once again. There wasn't any time to do anything more to the shield user. I made energy walls and spikes blocking anyone who was approaching, which slowed them down. Then I felt and saw it: t...

Chapter 67 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

Should I do it now or wait? That was the question I had been wondering for quite a few days now when I was interrupted by a part of me keeping an eye on the Ant nations. Was there another huge war happening? There shouldn't be, but this was a high priority.

Immediately, most of me started to focus on the reported area, and then I saw quite a large ant exploring human ruins. What? Right, I made this when Tristan really pissed me off by leaving. Didn’t actually expect an ant to find thi...

Chapter 341 Homesteading in a fantasy world

While the proper melee began between both armies, the divide between the rich and the fighters of God’s chosen, finally started to have some more movement. When everyone understood that Rich was trying to slowly drag the fighter into the forest, they immediately understood that they would be put at a disadvantage.

It was also obvious to them that a long-range fight was not bringing them the results they wanted, so a group of five rank-two fighters coordinated together and started clos...

Chapter 66 Dungeon Core: “The Eternal Training Ground”

POV Enn

Enn was really, really nervous. She had kinda wanted this, but now that it had happened, everything she knew would be different. She waited in the office of Immigration, as she was no longer a citizen of this empire. She was going to get an identifier that would show she is now without a nation. This terrified her, especially how everything familiar had changed in a moment and now was just not.

She remembered walking here, escorted by guards, but everyone she had once been...
