Though in the case of absurdly strong beings like Adalinda it matters not whether he took any measures or not since no tricks will be able to stop them.


    "You don''t have to worry now though, as time passes, your dungeon is sure to rank up. I''m sure there are different measures to counter space magic. Or else there wouldn''t be any dungeon left standing in this day and age" Irene consoled reading his worries.


    Simon shed a bitter smile and nodded his head.


    "I wasn''t going to ask you to create a gate here on the main floor in the first ce. What about the new floor I have created for them? If you want I can reposition it and make it one of the lower floors?".


    Since it''s much too much risk exposing the dungeon core to a bunch of beings who he still didn''t trust, there was no way Simon was going to ask Irene to create a gate on the main floor in the first ce.


    It worked better for him too if she can open a gate on one of the new floors he created for the Deep Sea Alligator King and hundreds of lizardmen.


    "That won''t be a problem, as long as it''s one or two floors away from the dungeon core I think I will be able to create a gate big enough for them to pass through" Irene affirmed.


    Thus it was her idea that he brought Bea along with him to this northern part of the forest.


    "Are you ready?" Simon asked Bea who nodded her head. She extended her hand towards the sky and surprisingly enough, the tip of her finger was able to touch the space and create a ripple as if it was made of water.


    The space distorted around as if it was some kind of invisible veil and a strong spatial energy emitted out of her. She continued this for a while when suddenly an even stronger spatial fluctuation descended from an unknown ce and surrounded the area.


    A few meters away from Bea, the space crumbled apart to reveal a spiral gate that became bigger and bigger until it was big enough to even fit the Deep Sea Alligator King.


    "S-Space Magic?!" The Deep Sea Alligator King muttered in astonishment.


    "Master, it''s done" Bea replied returning to Simon''s side at once.


    Simon looked at the huge created by Irene and Bea before turning towards the gobsmacked onlookers.


    "Alright, the gate is formed. Beyond it is my dungeon and also from now on your new home". The Elder Lizardmen blinked their eyes and nced towards their new king in apprehension. They weren''t sentient enough to understand what is a gate or what space magic is.


    "Before we go inside there, demon—ahem… my lord may I ask you a question?" the Deep Sea Alligator King felt a dangerous gaze directed at him from the one standing beside the demon and hurriedly changed the manner of his address.


    Simon arched his chin indicating for the Deep Sea Alligator King to go on. Thetter pretended to not see that gaze full of killing intent and asked his question to Simon who from this moment on was his master and lord.


    "What is to happen of us?".


    "Now that I have subdued you, your life belongs to me. But worry not, it''s not like I want you to go out there and sacrifice yourself or something. I''m simply transporting you guys to a floor in my dungeon and expecting you to protect it and prevent any invaders from moving forward".


    "Truthfully, that''s all I want from you guys. Of course, if you do a good job in that and serve me faithfully, you will also be rewarded. From what I can see, the concentration of mana here is very thin thus hindering your progress from bing a disaster ss. If you stay here, you might not be able to reach that height in your lifetime. However, if you follow me to the floor I have prepared for you, you would find that it was a boon in disguise and even thank meter".


    Simon dered and showed them a grand future that was waiting for them. He was not lying when he said that the Deep Sea Alligator King might not be a disaster ss after all the mystical energy herepared to the western region is negligible.


    The Beast n, mostly relied on the treasure of the nature and the ample mana in the surrounding that they slowly absorb into their body to level up. Of course, it was not like they cannot hunt and level up but the beasts that fall in this category are far and few between.


    The density of mystical energy in this area might be higher than in the eastern and southern regions of the forest. However, it was nowhere near the western part of the forest. Most of the mystical treasures and resources only grow at ces with a high concentration of mana.


    That is to say, the western region of the forest is filled with such treasures. Even if the Deep Sea Alligator King stayed here and used its long lifespan to slowly absorb the mystical energy in the surrounding, it might never reach the disaster ss with the help of said treasures.


    The thing that Simon mentioned, was the sore spot for the Deep Sea Alligator King. Even it knew that raising its strength here in the future might be impossible. However, it wasn''t strong enough to upy a region in the western region in fact it was defeated and chased away from there once.


    So when it heard Simon envisioning him such a future, it was a little sceptical. Even if the future turned out to bepletely different than what the demon told them, it had no choice right now since it was already subordinated by thetter.


    The Deep Sea Alligator King can onlyply with the orders of its lord. It swam to the shore and entered the huge gate that was made big thinking of its huge frame in mind and quickly disappeared inside.


    Since their former king entered the huge spiralling dark gate, the Elder Lizardmen followed suit without any hesitation.


    "Now then let us go inside too" after the hundreds of Elder Lizardmen went inside, theke becamepletely silent. Simon turned towards his subordinates and along with them stepped inside the gate.


    -----


    A wide iny in front of them, at the other end of the in was an enormouske that was more than triple or even quadruple the size of theke in the northern region of the forest.


    "W-Where is this ce?" the Deep Sea Alligator king uttered marvelling at the new ce it had arrived onto. Its subordinates, the Elder Lizardmen also had a simr expression as they nced at the new surrounding they found themselves in.


    "Do you like it? This is going to be your new home" Simon saiding in through the gate.


    After all of them had safely entered inside his dungeon the huge gate slowly disappeared leaving behind a spatial turbulence that would need some time to settle down.


    The Deep Sea Alligator King did not answer immediately, it first looked around its surroundings, felt the vast concentration of mana inside the floor before moving onwards to theke.


    Although the seed of Mana Trees sown on this floor had yet to sprout, the concentration of mystical energy is quite high here due to the proximity of the main floor and Forest spring spirit floor that had the majority of mana trees and mystical veins.


    Although it wasn''t exactly as high as the deeper areas of the western region; nheless, it was swiftly getting higher each day. On that note, the moment the mana on his main floor reached the mystical cycle, it was already on par with some of the deeper areas in the western region.


    SPLASH… as the huge body of the Deep Sea Alligator King dipped inside theke, it disced arge volume of water. Seeing its action, Simon revealed a smile and calmly waited for him to surface back.


    Though he did not know how deep theke it used to inhabit was, theke he created on his floor was more than two thousand meters deep. That was not all, there was also the…


    SPLASH… at this moment the Deep Sea Alligator King reappeared out of theke. Unlike a few moments ago when it had a doubting look on its face, right now its eyes were glowing. No, its dusty yellowish eyes were sparkling with excitement.


    "M-My Lord that… what is that?!". Simon did not me thetter to be out of breath after seeing that. after all, the thing that Simon had nted at the bottom of theke was the Attribute Blossom Moss.


    It was a type of algae that had grown inside his serenity pond and contained an enormous amount of pure mystical energy. It was a type of treasure that quickly grew when nted inside a water body.


    However, the effects of the Attribute Blossom Moss wasn''t as simple as reproducing and spreading around but increasing the affinity of a being to the water attribute. That is to say, as long as one is near the Attribute Blossom Moss or had been exposed to its effects for a long time, that individual would find their affinity with water element increase day after day.


    The Deep Sea Alligator King although it was an amphibian beast, it mostly lived inside a water body. Whenpared its power onnd and in water, it was no doubt many times stronger when inside water.


    That is why, when it saw the Attribute Blossom Moss growing at the bottom of theke and felt the effects buffing its powers, it was no doubt surprised beyond belief.
