Oke widened his eyes in astonishment.

"My lord... is it not so? That was the task you personally entrusted to me..."

"That was only temporary," Luo Yan continued unabashedly, "In the future, you will not only own a Magic Workshop but even have your own Mage Tower and even a Mage Domain! But that's not the point, the point is I have greater expectations for you... You know? Oke, I see great potential in you."

"Lord Demon King... you have greater expectations for Oke?!" Oke's eyes reddened.

This guy still loved to be moved and could be brought to tears in just a few words.

Truly a good goblin.

"Exactly," Luo Yan nodded in approval, continuing in a coaxing tone, "You will become the smartest, most cunning minion in my command... and there will be none other like you! Imagine, what will people say?"

"They will say you are the smartest, the most evil, the most cunning goblin in the history of the Aus Continent, even smarter than the cleverest goblin! Even the mages from the academies will have to learn from you!"

"Because the Magic Workshops of the Great Graveyard and their masters will all have been trained by you!"

"Now, do you still care that your apprentices have let down your painstaking efforts? That isn't even a letdown but rather a branching out and flourishing of your teachings..."

"Do you understand?"

"Oke understands!" Oke clenched his fists excitedly, suddenly bowing deeply, "I apologize, Lord Demon King, foolish Oke was blinded by vanity in front of him, failing your expectations... please do not take it to heart."

"Why would I take it to heart? I see your loyalty, and for now, I am quite satisfied, I hope you keep it up," Luo Yan said with a smile, continuing in a gentle tone, "By the way, it's about time, stay for dinner before you go back."

Hearing that Lord Demon King had invited him again to share dinner, Oke straightened his back excitedly.

"Yes! Lord Demon King!"

...

In just 24 hours, six Magic Workshops sprang up in the Great Graveyard.

The most prominent and largest among them was undoubtedly the one established by the player "Knocked Out the Chemical Pool," named "I Think It Can Be a Magic Workshop."

Being the first to break new ground, he attracted a swath of engineering moles with his exquisite Netherworld Language skills and modern mechanical engineering, and on the very first day, the number of employees reached over 100.

To fulfill the promises made to his employees, this guy simply DIY-ed a large iron stove and personally started roasting sweet potatoes outside Iron Teeth City on the third layer of the labyrinth.

For the appetite of the Mole People, one sweet potato was enough for them to gnaw on for a day and was quite cheap.

Compared to its output, the profit margin could only be described as astonishingly high.

In addition, there were others born at the same time, such as "Zheng Fangxing," "Magic Energy Technology," "All Under Heaven," and so on.

One wonders what methods those players used, as the Mole People of Iron Teeth City almost worshipped them like gods!

As for how Luo Yan knew this, it was quite simple because, ultimately, these beliefs would be credited to him.

That night, while he was enjoying his dinner, the Faith Points kept soaring upwards, and the "temporary increase" simply merged directly into the daily growth.

It was a demonstration of absolute submission, just like the adventurers he kept locked up in the tiny dark room.

Not just humans.

The Mole People also contributed to the Faith Points, though the amount varied.

Thanks to the moles of Iron Teeth City, Luo Yan's Faith Points had now broken through the 5000-point mark, heading towards 6000...

...

The next day.

Luo Yan got up early, and after breakfast, he wrote a letter to the Ministry of Internal Affairs at the Demon King Management Department, reporting a "natural disaster" in the Dimension Desert and the perilous situation at Brass Pass, while also inquiring about the "Madman" matter.

Considering that Mia, the student he was working with, was a poor student and wouldn't know secrets even he was unaware of, Luo Yan specially mentioned in the letter that if she could not answer, there was no need to force it, and to please relay the question to Professor Lilith at the Demon King Academy.

If it was Professor Lilith, such a trivial matter should be a piece of cake for her.

After dealing with the daily trivial matters, Luo Yan began preparing for the exploration of the fourth layer of the labyrinth.

Unlike the traditional sense of the first three layers of the labyrinth.

The fourth layer of the labyrinth was named "Mist Forest," a vast open area without mechanisms and walls dividing the paths.

According to the information Luo Yan swapped for a meal from the Little Demon Mi Xi, the fourth layer of the labyrinth was an underground forest with a day-night cycle.

Its area was so vast it was unimaginable, even comparable to the Silver Pine Forest, and its resources were far richer than the previous three layers.

However, since the former Demon King died, the Dome Crystal that maintained the day-night cycle had lost its source of energy, and currently, the entire forest was in a semi-lifeless state.

The dominant local species was said to be a group of Dark Night Elves skilled in dark and wood magic.

When Reggie Dragon, the Demon King, had just died, these Dark Night Elves, as the lords of the fourth layer, had invited the "dominators" of the first five layers of the labyrinth to the fourth layer for a "summit meeting" to discuss the future of the labyrinth.

It was said that Clan Leader Sanu had participated in the meeting as the dominator of the first layer.

According to Mi Xi, Queen Qianqian had a very poor impression of him, describing him as someone who, despite being weak, had a temper as violent as a Hellhound.
