All of them then quickly left to go through the teleporter, eventually Yue went last so as to destroy the way back. He clicked the pen, then dropped it, and teleported away. Upon arriving in the mine, he saw all the others waiting for him to come though, and went to the front to lead the way...
"Alright everyone, please put your Illusion Arm Bands back on, and for those of you who do not have one, come and get one before we leave the mine." Yueliang said as he pulled some out, and started handing them out and continued saying. "For those who where them, they will be disguised as human unless already human, however they also have other effects. One such being that you can see beyond illusions, and see what is real."
As Yue finished passing them out and saying what he had to say, he continued to walk through the tunnel leading them to the exit. After a few minutes, they came across some cultist in dark purple robes, and Yue said. "What have you come to my mine for?"
Once they looked at Yue and the people behind him, they clicked their tongues, and they just walked away. Although the cave was narrow, and they could take out many of them or so they thought, they knew eventually they would die from all of those people coming at them. At the same time the people behind Yue were surprised, that they left without argument or fight at first then realized why.
Yueliang continued to lead them out of the tunnel after those cultists where a distance ahead, but not so far that he could not notice if they tried setting a trap. Then he saw them pull out a scroll and teleport away. "Well at least there is one less battle in this new world we have come to." Yue said as he led the others to the end.
The group finally reached the entrance, none really spoke much the entire time, as their minds were preoccupied thinking about what they left, and what they would have to start from. This was a fresh start which was wonderful, however where do they have to start from they wondered. As they walked out of the entrance to the cave, they saw some knights walking towards them.
"Hello, everyone, we are the knights of the King of Laicain's kingdom, we received reports of cultists being here, have you seen any?" One of the 4 knights asked looking quite honorable.
Yueliang took the lead and said. "Yes we have actually, they used some teleportation scrolls the moment we saw them, sorry we could not do more. By the way, how far is the capital from here, if you do not mind?"
"Not far, maybe two days light ride by horse. Either way, thank you for your information. However why are there so many of you here?" The knight asked hoping they would not be bad people.
"Well sir..., ah right, I do not know your name sorry. Anyways, we came from another country as we are craftsmen and merchants. We are not very adept at fighting, it would be nice if we could live here, there would be no problem with that right? I mean after all, we would also be able to trade high quality goods with the capital."
"Hmm, well that should be alright, however to trade with the capital, you will need a license as I am sure you know. However it should not be a problem for you to live here, although this place is extremely dangerous. Also, my name is Lancelot." The knight replied, glad that there were no warriors that he could see, then said. "Well we must be off, we must find and kill those cultists to complete our quest, stay safe."
They all just stayed in place and watched as the knights left. Then Gawain said, breaking the silence. "Phew, that was close, if they thought we were a threat, we might have had to fight for our lives. Hehehe." He laughed kind of nervously at the thought, because these humans were much stronger than on Yueliang's planet. They had aura unlocked, were very strong, and could be a threat if they were not careful.
"It is alright everybody, we will be able to pose as merchants until our ship is ready. In addition to that, we also can make this our base of operations until we find something better. In the mean time, the goblin town I wiped out before is just ahead, we can live there for now. However it may be a little tight as it was not meant for thousands. Either way, once you all get settled, we should get to hunting and gathering, agreed?" Yue decreed, then asked.
Everybody nodded then went into the empty town that had clearly been burned, then ransacked. They looked at the desolation and just thought 'as expected of a mage' shaking their heads slightly. Although a few stayed behind to speak to Yueliang.
Xue came up first. "Thank you for saving us, my father and I are grateful. However what should we do to help? He is better at combat, and I am better at assassination." She asked a little sad that she could not help the one she loved more.
"Do not worry, your time to help will come, however for now go find Gawain, or Orslaine and have one of them teach you combat. What you have learned so far is way out of date. Also, as you are a cultivator orslaine, I can help you later as long as you are not too far along." Yueliang said happily, that they get to start their new life.
Then Fashi came up next to speak to Yueliang. "You did great, thank you for saving us. However what should my granddaughter and I do? We are best at magic, not really anything else."
"So this is your granddaughter, she is quite pretty, and I am guessing talented with you to teach her. I hope she finds someone who can make her happy. However for now, you both should find Yin, he is a lich for now. Try not to be too surprised, and please be nice. I want everyone to get along. He can teach you both more advanced magic, and we will need your help soon. For now just settle in, learn from Yin, and relax."
"Thank you very much Yue, I am truly fortunate to have befriended you in my life." Fashi replied.
"Not a problem, I feel the same way about everybody here." Yueliang said.
Yueliang went into the town and saw that there was not enough room to house everyone, yet no one was upset or causing chaos which was good. Then he jumped onto the ramparts of the wooden wall then shouted. "Attention everyone please come over here."
After everyone arrived, Yue said. "I apologize for not having enough room here yet. I planned to have us build tomorrow, however it seems that we must start today. Please drop your things, I will return them shortly. Seeing as the Sky Orcs are the strongest among us, 3,000 go out into the woods, and chop down trees, and bring back the lumber." As Yue started giving commands they dropped their things and went to work.
"Next up, 2,000 Sky Orcs, start breaking the side of the mountain to get rocks. I understand this will be rough, however we will use the rock for the floor of the houses, and streets. Lumber for building the houses. 1,000 Sky Orcs, you will go build the houses. The goblins, I am sorry to ask this of you, however if you could go mining, so that I have materials to make tools that would be great. As for Yin, please teach magic to Fashi, and his apprentice. For Shashou, Xue, and Laohu, please patrol the area and watch for any people coming near this place." Yueliang said then went his own way.
He started picking up everyone's bags, and had the system label them so he knew whose was whose. Then he started thinking in his head. 'Yang, could you pick up this entire town? Well the structures and everything, then separate them into usable materials for me?'
"Yes, master I could, however it will cost you a year. What do you say?" Yang asked seriously.
'Whatever, although at that rate, I may as well ask you to start construction as well' Yue thought as he walked through the town.
"Alright master, I take it you want me to use the design you have in mind right now as the form to build? It will cost 1 extra year, shall I begin?"
'Yes please begin, and make sure there are crafting stations in one part of the town.'
"Understood, right away."
Yueliang watched intently as wood fell from the sky into the ground, cut, ready, and everything, then falling into place and nailed. He saw one building after another being formed, they were smaller than the original buildings, however had enough room for each family, or individual. Each were set up like apartments, instead of houses. It looked very aesthetically appealing and rustic. There was now enough housing for about half of the people there, as well as rooms for craftsmen. Now they just needed to finish the rest.
