I Can Make Everything Level UP

The carts were pretty fast, so they could cross the first floors without being blocked by the tyrants. With that in mind, Billy and the others used them. However, they used long-ranged attacks to kill them anyway. It would be a waste of experience not to do that.

Usually, one would need around four hours to cross the first floor while walking nonstop, but with the carts, they did it in ten minutes. Billy could make them go even faster, but that might risk them dropping the materials collected along the hunts.

"Have you ever thought of making trains, Billy?" Icarus asked.

"Yes, but I couldn't be bothered," Billy replied. "I don't mind helping this world develop, but I am not planning to become everyone's slave to bring prosperity to this world."

"Well… It would take a while for the rails to be built, so I understand where you are coming from," Icarus said.

"Most people of this world can run faster than cars, so trains would be a waste of time," Meryl said.

"What if you are carrying something with you? Or what if you are sick or wounded?" Billy asked.

"I suppose you would need a vehicle like that, but in this world…" Meryl said.

"We should just use people to pull carriages and to cultivate fields them since your only excuse is that the people here are stronger. They are faster and can heal fast," Billy said. "Even better, we should just teach them to use magic. We won't need monsters or animals if we can control the land with magic. Not even builders or hills will become a problem now."

Meryl didn't know how to answer to that. Billy had a point. If magic and strength were the reason that they shouldn't interfere too much with the development of the world, then it would be the same as ignoring the damage caused by monsters… it was natural that people would die when they attacked, and for that reason, should they leave the monsters alone? Even if it was unnatural, they were in that world, so they should do what they wanted to do to improve their lives.

In any case, in a couple of hours, they reached the fifth flour, but from that moment onward, they had to walk since the number of tyrants was troublesome, and two of them were always blocking their path.

"Shouldn't we have brought with us some of your followers, Meryl?" Icarus asked. "We are leaving a lot of materials behind, and they will disappear before we can return."

"It is fine, they would have to return on their own with the loot, and they aren't strong enough to fight here without me," Meryl explained.

Billy thought that the demi-humans would be able to hand the spawning spots on the first levels, but he was wrong in the end. While they were stronger than ordinary humans, that dungeon truly was probably the second hardest on the continent, and the tyrants were way too troublesome. They had everything… physical strength, powerful long, ranged attacks, endurance, healing speed… unless they receive a lot of damage in a few moments, most people wouldn't be able to kill them.

"Billy can make magic crossbows that would cause a lot of damage, adding that with the things that you can make that recover mana on their own…" Icarus said.

"True, I can create a magic machine gun with infinite bullets. What a great thing to leave behind in this world," Billy said.

"You don't have to make use of sarcasm all the time. I get it that I spoke without thinking…" Icarus said and then sighed. "Speaking of weapons, do you think the maker's cannon uses the same functions as your magic tools that can recharge over time?"

"... It is possible. He might even be better than mine since that cannon can spam attacks from a distance that I am not able to measure," Billy said.

The mood of the group dropped considerably. The maker still was pretty much a mystery in many aspects when it comes to his powers… while he was using a dungeon to strengthen himself, he also was smart enough to use his abilities to create things and reinforce his talents. In fact, he was only howled in the dungeon because he had a defensive system ready to protect his base for him while he was leveling up.

"Come to think of it, instead of saying that he has one cannon, it might be more accurate to say that he has several like that one," Billy thought. "Saying that now wouldn't help us in any way, so I should keep quiet. Nevertheless, to create that level of defense… is the dungeon that deep or is he having problems clearing it?"

The boss of a fire dragon's dungeon would be… a super-powered fire dragon, or so Billy thought. That enemy must be at the level of a world-destroying creature to keep someone with the power of six reincarnated at bay. Still, Billy had a feeling the maker had already conquered the dungeon. Suppose he had the chance to stay in that dungeon for two years. In that case, he could easily imagine himself reaching level one thousand, and that would grant him two extra powerful skills that would be the same as the innate ones. With that in mind, he should expect something better from the dungeon the enemy was using.

In any case, the group kept going on their journey, and while the spawning speed was even higher on Lower levels, it was something that they could deal with. The problems only started when they reached the fourteenth level, and they found the place completely overtaken by tyrants. It took two days for them to reach that level, but it will take them another day to clean things up there since they had been spawning nonstop for more than a month, and the Manipulator was no longer around to keep them under control.
