"Shall we gather the others?" one of the chieftains asked. "That won't be necessary, just us three will be enough," Lucius replied reluctantly. Using massive carts, Elmando, and a bit of strength, they would be able fo complete the work faster than the shrooms ever could. "Though this means that we'll only be able to build this structure tomorrow since its getting late," he added. It was currently late afternoon, and he didn't want to be doing construction work in the middle of the night. "We'll head…-

As the chieftains were being led towards the building that Lucius was waiting for them in, they walked past the training grounds where the kid shrooms were currently training. Right now they were attempting to lift pebbles, most of them being too weak to even get it off the ground. "They would have the children perform such feats of strength? I was not aware that the Lighted One led a warrior unit," one of the chieftains whispered, as he himself wondered whether he would've been able to lift some of those…

"There was about a day and a half difference between your installation times, so she should be back sometime later today, or early tomorrow," Lucius explained. "I mean, will she not be a part of this mission?" Alpha asked. "Her stats will be too low, and we need someone to protect the camp while we're gone. So sadly she won't be participating in this," Lucius replied. "Speaking of which, the others are about to complete their evolution process soon, aren't they?" Hannibal asked, to which Lucius nodded…

Lucius led the group to one of the empty buildings within the internal camp. Once they had all entered he used his Elmando skill to close the door, before creating furniture for the four of them to sit on. The others were confused by the chairs at first as they had never had to sit before, but once Lucius took a seat they all followed. Lucius then used Elmando to create a round table at the center, before creating a map of the necromancer's camp on top of it. "This is a layout of the necromancer's camp,"…

Once Lucius got back to the camp, he went straight for the training grounds, expecting at least Alpha to still be there. But to his surprise, the entire place was crowded. The arena had been divided into 3 sections. One part had a whole range of different-sized rocks, one of which Hannibal was currently carrying. In another section, Pagan and Alpha were currently sparring, though they really ought to have built a wall since stray beams threatened to hit a few of the kid shrooms who were currently running…

From the looks of things, the perimeter had 3 layers of protection. Two layers of undead guards holding the perimeter line, and a bunch of creatures hidden somewhere within the decayed forest watching over. If not for his earth sense, perhaps he would've fallen for the trap. ~Are they... building?~ Lucius thought to himself as he noticed an odd-looking structure just out in the distance. Pushing himself to the limit, he quickly dashed from tree to tree, going higher up with each leap. ~Oh lord,~ he…

"Anyway, we'll be doing this at the same time every day from now on. The goal of this isn't only to increase your stats, but to ingrain some battle instincts into your minds," Lucius explained as the three of them lay on the ground completely exhausted. "You two remember the necromancer and his undead horde right?" he asked, looking towards Hannibal and then Alpha, both of whom replied with an exhausted nod. "Now that you guys are powered up, we have a chance at dealing with them. But first, we need to…

Lucius whispered to himself, and upon hearing this Hannibal 'fainted'. Hannibal thought himself a tactician... a thinker, he had no place being rag-dolled by the strongest creature in the camp, and…

~Lucius...~ Hannibal whispered. ~I know, but let's test it out before we get too excited. There's a chance that the techniques don't work with our index,~ Lucius replied, before disconnecting everyone from the tree. The three of them walked to a spot just outside the central camp, before Hannibal began trying to execute what he had read. While he was doing this, Lucius tried to see if he could replicate the technique with the solar index. It took about two minutes before Hannibal had finally…

The rest of the memory went on as aspected. Soon the humans began extracting minerals from the ground, odd-looking gems similar to azure, but Lucius could tell at a glance that they were magical in nature. They also sucked the mana lakes dry and chopped down the trees that were lined all along the city. From what Lucius could tell, they were all marked, however, they seemed way larger, and seemingly more radiant than the one he had. Of course, this was not done without retaliation from the Fae.…
