Extraordinary in Reality Through Magic Games

In a country ruled by royal power, everything belonged to the King, so the answer was no.

China had the world’s most impressive infrastructure capabilities, but considering that the future Academy and Sect might be detected if anomalies were noticed, he didn’t dare look there.

The Other World didn’t have such concerns, but there were no ’construction teams’ that dared to take on private work.

This really worried Zhang Mu.

He was so anxious that he was ready to head to a neighboring country to find a solution, but after being told by Mihe that the nearby kingdoms were all the same, he gave up in frustration.

What to do?

Just as he was about to scratch his scalp raw, Domit finally rushed back with good news.

The Lord of Gur City had been killed.

The detailed circumstances were unknown.

Domit only knew that the City Lord’s manor had been busy preparing for the funeral for the past two days.

Perhaps because the City Lord usually lacked the people’s support, the residents of the entire city were in an uproar.

The one jumping the highest was none other than the City Lord’s eldest son. It was understandable; after all, he was about to take over his father’s vast family estate, so excitement was inevitable.

Mihe had expected this to some extent.

He explained to the two of them that he had returned to the treasure site seven days ago and saw the scene in a mess after a great battle.

Strangely, there wasn’t a single corpse.

After a brief investigation, he found several giant bear paw prints, which should belong to a Violent Bear.

Mihe, who wandered the Silent Forest year-round, was extremely familiar with the strength of a Violent Bear. Without a life-saving spell like the Swift Travel Technique, facing one head-on meant certain death.

Mihe had fought the City Lord and knew he hadn’t mastered any similar magic.

Therefore, he guessed that they must have been attacked by the Violent Bear.

Thinking that the City Lord might have died under a bear’s claws, his heart surged with excitement. He followed the human footprints on the ground that fled into the forest for several hours and caught up with an Adventurer Group.

After inquiring from a safe distance, he learned that not long after they were sent out of ’the World,’ a Violent Bear attacked.

However, strangely enough, that Violent Bear ignored everyone else, bypassed the outer Adventurer Group, and charged straight for the City Lord’s party.

The Adventurer Group, which had intended to fight for their lives, saw that this had nothing to do with them. Why hesitate? Run!

Afterward, Mihe turned back to the Magic Array, thinking along the way that the City Lord had most likely been trampled to death by the Violent Bear.

But because he hadn’t seen the body, he couldn’t be sure of the City Lord’s life or death until Domit returned with the news.

After listening, Zhang Mu’s expression became strange.

At that time, I was using the Shadow Technique and stayed close to the City Lord’s team for a while, so we must have picked up each other’s scent.

This faint scent probably wouldn’t be noticed by a human’s sense of smell, but a Violent Bear... Good grief, did it track my scent and kill the City Lord?

Eh?

We know the City Lord was attacked by a Violent Bear, but the people in the City Lord’s manor don’t know that, right?

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have waited half a month before preparing the funeral.

In that case, using the Transformation Technique...

Sitting by the stone table in the small courtyard, Zhang Mu bared his teeth and suddenly stood up, walking toward the stone stairs: ”I need to go to Gur City.”

After taking two steps, he suddenly turned back and looked at the confused Domit and Mihe: ”I have some ideas I’d like to discuss with you.”

Building various houses, elevated railways, lakes, and so on—just the initial coordination of materials and selecting suitable construction sites was not something he could manage alone.

Moreover, he would also have to handle the City Lord’s daily official duties.

He needed manpower—his own people.

Currently, the only ones around him who could be of use were them.

Zhang Mu sat back at the stone table and said with a smile, ”I will explain my plan in detail. Whether you agree or not is for you to decide.”
