Rise of a Dungeon Lord

"No, I can't give up! There has to be a way!"

Comforting himself, Ye Tian once again took another look at his current status panel

Scrolling through the information, had a better grasp of his current situation and strictly speaking too bad

In fact, it could even be said to be amazing considering his situation before coming to this world

From the hundreds of dungeons thanks to the core proliferation abilities and the assimilation which has almost reached 50%

Seeing all this, unknowingly at some point in time a smile miraculously found itself on Ye Tian's face

Especially the assimilation rate which was almost halfway, this alone brought him the most joy

Assimilation rate, not only was this important to his future plans, in fact, Ye Tian knew he had to find a way to quickly push it over 50%

If he didn't, then there would only be two things expecting him

One, be sent out of the world once again like he was on Earth

Two, run out of world power and shut down indefinitely here"

"Three, both. Be cast out of Aincrad and shut down indefinitely due to lack of world power"

And as for why things were like this, it had to do with why his world power was so low.

Taking a look at his world power was just 5.7 even after a thousand years, Ye Tian couldn't believe

Even the system was shocked after all, I'm its calculation adding the number of deaths that have happened all these years

Plus the number of corpses and materials devoured, both Ye Tian and the system thought they would have amassed quite the sum by now

Unfortunately, that wasn't the case as after taking a closer look, the two of them quickly found out the reason.

"Damn world will, just eating up all my thousand-year gains!"

Cursing angrily at the sky Ye Tian couldn't help but want to cut down the sky

Sighing slightly, regrettably looked at his available world power

It turns out that with the proliferation of dungeons and gamification, unknowingly his identity as an outsider became more and more exposed

And to make it worse, Ye Tian found that order to make it so that their identity wasn't fully exposed

Fortunately, a way to make the dungeons invisible from the world will sights exist.

However unfortunately using the

Is method, the dungeon must be wrapped in world power 24/7

with a consumption of almost five world power a day for one dungeon, and an ever-increasing amount of dungeons

Now a thousand years had passed and the dungeon was still struggling to break even.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Tian couldn't help but sigh, it seemed that there was more work for him to do in the future

Thinking of this, Ye Tian couldn't help but wonder if he should have slept passed a thousand years until at least the assimilation had reached 50%

Unfortunately, now that things had come to this there was no changing it.

Making up his mind, Ye Tian began to try and understand the other things on the panel

Luckily, most of the things were really basic, not attracting Ye Tian's attention.

"Lord's name,  main dungeon ( obviously this), affiliated dungeons… and many more of which Ye Tian knew what the stood for"

However, this time excluding the minuscule about of world sources, another thing caught Ye Tian's attention

Subordinates!

And not just the ordinary subordinates, but rather the named ones

Seeing the familiar names there, Ye Tian  couldn't help but wonder what they were doing here

Ana, the beautiful demoness

Khaled an obnoxious vampire

And the king of bones, the former dungeon boss of the first and last dungeon he experienced on the blue star.

In fact, if anyone had asked him, Ye Tian  could have sworn they would have been dead with the collapse of that dungeon then.

However, now looking at them stated there with the subordinate tagged attached to them, Ye Tian couldn't help but develop an evil smile at the corner of his lips

"Haha, it seemed that my first chance toward revenge might come soon!"

Thinking of the screams of his classmates back then,

The smile in Khaled's eyes as he toyed with us I'm the dungeon

The contempt in Ananas eyes whenever she glanced at them

And the king of bones who pushed him into a desperate corner resulting in the current situation

Three of them along with Jiang Yang and some others had already long been marked down in Ye Tian's book for revenge.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian couldn't wait to start serving them some punishment right now

Unfortunately, he couldn't since they were a lot of questions he hadn't answered yet

First of all, how does the subordination work?

Do subjects have a possibility of betrayal or are they hundred percent loyal?

And after being granted the status of subordinates, is there a time limit?

Can outsiders or non-dungeon inhabitants become subordinates?

Thinking of all these questions, Ye Tian knew he could not be hasty for revenge and quickly calmed himself down.

*Yes the three of them are not running anywhere, as long as the core still exists I should be able to summon them at any time!*

Making this realisation, Ye Tian's body suddenly felt a bit lighter as he continued studying the panel

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that his sudden change of mood was clearly detected by the system

And watching Ye Tian calm down so quickly and analyse the situation calmly, the system was unknowingly satisfied with this level of growth being displayed by its host.
