After a few days, Billy decided to return to the demi-human continent. If he used several skills while fighting the tyrants, he would be able to receive a lot more experience and transfer those to the skills he wanted. But Billy also wanted to keep some summons there. It was the only way to try to keep up with the hunting speed of the maker, who had been using the fire dragons' dungeon for over two years.
When he returned, Icarus, Lucyna, and Meryl had already left the dungeon and were resting for a while. It seemed that Meryl was planning to move her base there, but it would be hard to cross the continent with so many of her people in her camp. They needed to come up with a way to solve that issue... time wasn't something that they could waste after all.
"You returned a lot faster than we expected, and you also looked well rested," Icarus said.
"I am going to use the dungeon for a while. It is time to start preparing for the next battle," Billy said and then entered the dungeon.
Those three could only be amazed at Billy's recovering speed, they could understand his useful that dungeon was, but they weren't mentally ready to enter again. They needed at least one week's worth of rest.
"So, any ideas as to how you will move your base?" Lucyna asked. "Even if most of your people are strong, it will take months for ordinary people to cross the continent while avoiding the central area."
"I will think of something. Now we need to rest after this ordeal…" Meryl replied after realizing that they needed to use the calm before the storm as much as possible.
Already inside the dungeon, Billy thought of using his new techniques, but he couldn't. The tyrant wasn't that obedient even when they were half dead. While he had to attempt the experience of stealing from living beings, he couldn't use it while he was shocking the tyrants to death either. It was truly troublesome… perhaps if he used Mind Control and put them to sleep…
Billy managed to do that, but when they sensed his mana in action on their bodies, they woke up as quickly as they could. If anything, they had good instincts. Things wouldn't be go so easy, but Billy was used to it.
"I suppose, for the time being, I will summon some monsters that will help me hunt faster," Billy thought. "It will take a while for them to become strong enough to solo this place, but a group can at least stay on a single spawning spot."
Against Tyrants and their incredible resilience, Billy assumed that some poisonous enemies would be the best option… ones that could cause damage over time with poison and that could slow them down as well. Their ranged attacks could become a problem, so the summoned monsters had to lay traps… in the end, Billy decided to summon some spiders. The skills that they would have would be a paralyzing bite to make the tyrants as easy to kill as possible once they are bitten and cursed webs. The spiders would lay those around between battles. So, the tyrants would get touched by them, get slower, and be poisoned as well.
With his extra surplus of mana, Billy easily summoned ten of those spiders. He wanted to summon more. Still, they were strangely big when they were summoned despite being at low levels. They were also hairy too, so Billy couldn't help but feel shivers while looking at them… thanks to that, Billy wondered if he shouldn't summon some half-human and half-spiders female monsters, but he decided against it. There was no reason to make his wives even madder at him. Even if he tries to hide that, eventually, they will learn about it.
Nevertheless, Billy stayed at that spawning point for several hours in order to make sure that the spiders would get stronger. Still, he only offered support when they got in danger. While they were big, they were only as big as a human. They could be easily smashed by the tyrants. Regardless, by the time he had to go home, Billy could see the ten or so spiders killing a single tyrant by themselves. So, his job for the day was over.
"Maybe I can use their paralyze bits once they get stronger to steal the tyrants' experience…" Billy thought.
That would take a while as well, but it couldn't be helped. If things were so simple to solve, Billy would think that he was falling into a trap. Nevertheless, he was satisfied with the current situation where he was getting 1500 experience points pretty much every minute. Considering the experience that he needed to level up right now, that dungeon was going to make him level up at least once every day for several days, so it really wasn't half bad.
"Hey, you are leaving a lot earlier than expected," Icarus asked.
"I have done enough for today. I will return tomorrow," Billy said.
"Wait, we are thinking about how we can move Meryl people to this region. Do you have any idea how we can speed up that process?" Icarus asked. "You can make some vehicles to help her, right?"
"Yes, I can, but I should?" Billy asked.
"I don't mind paying you," Meryl replied.
"I don't need money," Billy said. "I am a multi-billionaire. I am the batman of the fantasy world."
"You are a little too old to say that, don't you think?" Meryl asked. "Let's see… I really don't know what I can give you for your cooperation. How about more blood?"
"I am not a vampire," Billy said and then sighed. "Well, I will help you for free since the other dungeon will be free from your control right now."
That would be helpful, but Meryl wondered why Billy wanted another dungeon when that one was clearly much better…
