Another World Mall
Chapter 711 - 711: Arrival

"Welcome." Clovis extended his hand.

"We're honored to be here. To think that the person that once came here suddenly became a big shot who owned a city." The familiar man who shook Clovis' hand was none other than Cain. He was the leader of the Opensky company's first team.

They once got the new beast souls together.

At that time, Clovis and the others were not someone important. They were merely a business partner who managed to have a deal with Hana.

Yet, in just a short period, Clovis not only became one of the most important figures in the country but also became so strong that he could take down a Tier 7 beast.

Meanwhile, the first team of the Opensky company was not an ordinary team either. Each of them was Tier 6, with Cain approaching Tier 7. This was the team that Hana had been nurturing without the help of her grandfather.

With them helping the team in securing the underground base, Clovis would have an easier time hunting beasts.

Clovis extended his hand. "Please come in. We don't have a lot since we still need to rebuild the city."

"Ah, yes." Cain nodded and took a step to the side. "We've brought them here. These are the professors we have found who will help you with the development."

"In that case, let's have them discuss it with Kanaria." Clovis nodded. "As for the rest of the money and connection, Hana will take care of it."

"Will that be alright with you?" Cain asked, staring at the few old men behind him.

"Yes. Restoring a city is a huge task, but it's something that everyone wishes to do. Unfortunately, only a select few have such privilege."

Most of the time, retaking and restoring a fallen city could be done, but the cost was so high that the government didn't want to do it. Instead, they would build another city from scratch not far from the fallen city and use that fallen city as a hunting ground to populate the new city.

Rebuilding the city was usually done by either a Tier 9 human or an insane government.

That was why it didn't take a lot for Hana to convince these people. There was no way they would argue with Kanaria over a small matter since the moment the city was done, they would be famous, like other world-class professors who were recognized for their works building a city for a Tier 9 human.

Hence, Hana entrusted them with the work.

Clovis nodded his head. "In that case, you can discuss it with Kanaria right away. Melody. Do you mind showing them the way? I will need to talk to Mr. Cain regarding the underground city."

"Sure." Melody agreed and moved to the side. "Please follow me."

"Mr. Cain, huh? I can't afford to have this politeness. Your status is much higher than mine. Just call me Cain, so I don't get too bothered by it." Cain smiled wryly.

"Hahahaha." Clovis chuckled. "I understand. In that case, let's talk about the underground city inside."

"Sure. What is your current plan, actually?"

"It's nothing big. While we have secured the underground city, the beasts will attack it. I want you to focus on defending the underground city. It doesn't matter if it's destroyed, since we will rebuild it.

"Meanwhile, I will be heading outside and thinning out the number of beasts. Since a few decades have passed, the number of beasts around this place is quite high.

"It's necessary to thin them out first before beginning with the construction.

"Besides, it's a good opportunity for us to take down a lot of beasts, considering we need growth the most," explained Clovis.

"Fair enough." Cain acknowledged Clovis' arrangement. "Still, I have heard of you defeating a Tier 7 beast. Even though this is a huge feat, don't forget that this beast was severely weakened due to the influence of the tower.

"If you end up encountering a Tier 7 beast outside, they might be much stronger."

"Yes. I'm aware of the danger. For now, we are not planning something far away. Most of the time, it will be to prevent any outbreak." Clovis showed a solemn face, assuring him that he wouldn't do such a reckless thing.

Clovis knew how the tower played such a huge role in weakening the Tier 7 beast they defeated, so he still didn't feel complacent about his achievement.

They planned to take their time in the next six months here to thin out the number of beasts around the underground city.

By that time, the calculation should be done and the construction of the Skylift could be processed.

He didn't know how long it would take, but he was hoping that by the time he reached Tier 7, the Skylift had been built. Even if the surface city and underground city hadn't been redeveloped completely, it was fine.

In the end, Clovis' main goal was to get stronger in this city.

"I understand. It'll be a pleasure to work with you. Let's discuss the details now."

"Yes."

Once the two captains had reached an agreement, they worked quite fast, allowing Clovis to go back to the underground city in just a week to resume their usual hunt. Even Kanaria had to leave her work behind to get stronger.

However, in the past seven days, there was one disturbing thing occurring in the city.

Every night, the people were woken up by the sound of the wolf's howl echoing from inside the city.

The people were confused because they couldn't find the wolf, no matter how hard they looked for it.

Meanwhile, Clovis casually told them not to worry about it and still feigned ignorance even though he was the one who told Reolf to do it.

His ultimate plan began the moment he was planning to go back to the underground city. Since he was planning to descend with their bus, they, specifically Cain and Rena, caught a glimpse of a wolf's eye in the gap between two curtains in Clovis' bus, raising a lot of questions in their minds.
