"Now that the camp has expanded, we can’t do things on the cheap like before, so some things still need to be done according to the old rules.

Actually, these matters aren’t much of a concern; the most important are those who originally followed Madeline back to Pengcheng.

When the camp was smaller, even though their conditions in Pengcheng were not optimal, it still was a big city compared to the camp.

But now, after the expansion of the camp, the old generation has regained control, and they want to bring all those people back."

However, when the merger took place, the positions in the camp were almost all filled, so if those people returned, they would still have to start from the bottom.

But those people had connections and responsibilities, and if they really had to start from the bottom, conflicts were bound to arise. You know as well as I do that as long as one doesn’t make mistakes, they could stay in a position for a very long time, and the higher the position, the more difficult it is to get promoted."

Upon hearing Robinson William’s words, Dong Tianyu spoke with a hint of disdain, "What does that have to do with us? Why bother so much?"

Madeline, hearing Dong Tianyu, echoed similarly, "Exactly, we don’t have a say in these matters, and brother, you shouldn’t worry so much either."

Hearing the reassurance from the two, Robinson William thought about it and decided to let the topic go.

Dong Tianyu had already heard about the situation in the camp from Mr. Thompson, so Robinson William didn’t go into detail.

As order became more stable, the camp’s dependency on Dong Tianyu and Madeline decreased. Initially, Madeline acted as a merchant, trading for various goods in other places.

However, as the camp expanded, its measures became more comprehensive, reducing the need for external resources.

Moreover, with the incorporation of other camps, the newcomers were unaware of how much Madeline had contributed to the camp.

Because of this, had Madeline not gone to Kyoto, taking into account her contributions to the camp and Master Ye’s position, she would have been given an office or title when the camps merged.

But with Madeline having gone to Kyoto and Master Ye feeling it improper to speak on her behalf, although Rylan had made a proposal, he didn’t argue the point, so in the end, Madeline, like Dong Tianyu, was just an ordinary person in the administrative system of the camp.

Dong Tianyu didn’t really mind, although he had made many contributions to the camp, ultimately, it could be said to be a trade, despite him apparently being on the losing end of every trade.

However, Madeline wasn’t too upset about it, knowing that with her father and brother in the camp, she would never be at a disadvantage.

After meeting up at Madeline’s house in the morning, the afternoon was set for a gathering of the camp’s younger generation.

Because most of the people around Robinson William’s age had returned to Pengcheng before the camp expanded, he was the oldest at the gathering.

Knowing this, Robinson William didn’t stay long and took his leave.

Although the afternoon gathering was purportedly a welcome party, most of the food and drinks were provided by Dong Tianyu and Madeline.

It was less of a welcome party and more of a get-together where Dong Tianyu and Madeline invited friends to catch up.

Yet in this quiet and peaceful atmosphere, the situation in the wild once again changed.

After the earthquake ended, the emergence of towering trees had enveloped the land, but no other plants appeared on the ground, not even a single weed.

Some survivors might have noticed this, but with the resurgence of ancient creatures, they didn’t pay it too much attention.

The Officials had also noticed but after trying to plant crops and successfully harvesting them without any discernible difference from before, they didn’t pursue the matter further.

As time passed, although ancient creatures passively absorbed Spirit Energy and gradually became stronger, facing humans who were becoming stronger at an even faster rate, most ancient creatures ended up as nothing more than a dish on the human menu.

Just like the unique creatures that appeared in different places, the ancient creatures now seemed like video game monsters that could never be wiped out, as if no matter how many were killed, they would simply respawn the next day.

Just as the survivors had adapted to various natural disasters in the past, they slowly began to adapt to the existence of ancient creatures, and the previously barren land started showing signs of green.

Unnoticed, many different plants started sprouting up around the giant trees.

At first, the Hunting Team didn’t pay much attention to the young shoots emerging from the ground, but as time went on and the shoots started to grow, everyone began to realize the diversity of the new plant life.

With the growth of these plants, the forests formed by the giant trees seemed to have gained endless vitality.

The Hunting Teams, once going out only to hunt ancient creatures, now discovered nests with ancient creature hatchlings.

Previously, whether through killing or capturing, ancient creature hatchlings were never encountered, leading everyone to believe that these ancient creatures, like video game monsters, had no age and would always respawn as adults.
