Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 608 - 537 Changes in the Knight Residence

After arranging some specific matters concerning the Forging Workshop, Kane handed the scene over to Steel Armor and Adoma.

The curiosity of the guild members was, of course, left for them to address.

Kane walked out of the forge lock.

Adoma was immediately surrounded by most of the guild members, who were all asking what function this newly appeared space had.

"Don't be in such a hurry, everyone, let me explain slowly."

With that, Adoma began loudly introducing to the guild members the functions of the newly established Forging Workshop.

Most of the guild members were Spirits of Freedom and were still within the World Ring, not truly becoming Explorers yet. So they felt the function was very useful, but they didn't yet fully understand the kind of help it could bring them.

However, two teams of Raphael's were listening nearby, as was Burton, who was also listening to the new functions of the Forging Workshop.

As Explorers, they were immediately amazed by some of the functions here, whether it was the ability to change the size and shape of equipment or repair it.

For them, these were essential functions to be used frequently.

These two features were instead very important.

Especially when Adoma said that in the future it might be possible to change and replace equipment attributes.

This gave them even more anticipation for the Forging Workshop.

Kane watched this scene from the side, smiled, and was about to leave.

At this time, Abby, the commander of the Defender Army, came over.

"Your Majesty, wait a moment."

Hearing the call from behind, Kane stopped in his tracks and turned around, only to see Abby.

He thought it would be Kanske or Zawa, after all, only the newly added members in Kane's dungeon would call him Your Majesty.

"Why are you calling me Your Majesty?"

Kane was puzzled.

Abby chuckled without explaining. He couldn't very well say that after their unanimous decision, they felt calling Kane Your Majesty suited his identity better.

He understood some of Kane's character, so it was best not to explain too much, just change the way of calling. Once Kane got used to it, he wouldn't mind. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

However, Kane still said, "Out in the open, calling me President or Kane is better."

Being called Your Majesty in the Guild Hall, when there are more people in the future, honestly made Kane feel somewhat awkward.

Although Kane had actually figured out why Abby and the others would call him Your Majesty.

Abby reluctantly nodded.

"Go ahead, what's the matter?"

It was only then that Abby began to state the reason he called Kane: "Your Majesty, after the Forging Workshop appeared, there were also changes in the military depot at the residence."

Abby's words piqued Kane's curiosity, was there a connection between the military depot and the Forging Workshop?

"Let's go, take a look."

With this, they entered the nearby Knight Residence together.

However, the moment they entered, they heard the commotion coming from the distant training ground.

There were voices of adult male Knight Order members as well as those unique girlish voices of the Moon's Child who had just joined the Knight Order not long ago.

"What's going on, why is it so noisy?"

Kane couldn't help but turn his head and ask Abby.

Facing Kane's question, Abby could only awkwardly look away, not knowing what to say.

This only made Kane more curious, so he walked directly toward the training ground.

Upon getting closer, it wasn't a noise at all.

Various cries of little girls, along with the chatter of little girls, the reassuring voices of some Knight Order members, all mixed together in a cacophony.

When Kane saw the situation on the training ground, he couldn't help but want to turn around and leave, as the scene seemed quite chaotic and bothersome.

This was no longer a training ground at all, but more like a playground in a daycare nursery.

"Waaaah! Sike missed, boohoo..." A little girl of the Moon's Child, holding a small magic wand with the Knight Order's insignia.

Crying while firing moon-like magic bullets, yet her aim was sadly lacking, even though the target was just 50 meters away, the magic bullets were flying all over the place, completely missing.

Next to her was a member of the Knight Order, a knight archer.

Gently patting the little girl's head, he consoled helplessly, "Don't cry, take your time, there's no rush."

Besides the helplessness, he also showed deep exhaustion on his face.

At this moment, a magic bullet directly broke through another target.

"Waaaah! Mist's target is broken, Mist has no target to shoot at, Mark booo..."

Another Moon's Child who was training targeting began to cry instantly.

And the one teaching him was Mark. Seeing the Moon's Child in front of him cry again, he couldn't help but turn his head and glare at the knight archer mentoring Sike.

Then he squatted down to console him.

Apart from this kind of Moon's Child, who was rather soft-hearted and loved to cry, there was also the mischievous type like Lu Ya.

A Moon's Child with short hair, looking like a tomboy, ran past Kane.

Seeing Kane, she grinned and greeted him, "Your Majesty, you're here!"

However, not far away came the shout of another Knight Order member.

"Shine, don't run around with a sword, come over and train."

Upon hearing the shout from behind, the short-haired Shine simply ran off without looking back.

A panting member of the Knight Order arrived beside Kane, bowed quickly, and chased after her.

In the distance, Kane could see Sydney turning her head and making a funny face, embodying the word "mischievous" to the fullest.

And there were quite a few Moon's Children like her, each with their own mischievous ways.

Of course, not all Moon's Children had such personalities; most were relatively calm and gentle.

The Knight Order members responsible for training them looked at their comrades with schadenfreude.

It was as if they were proudly showing off their daughters, boasting about the Moon's Children they had trained.

Seeing this scene, Kane felt relieved; at least some were normal, weren't they?

He couldn't help but turn to Abby and asked, "Abby, don't you train any attendants?"

These Moon's Children joined the Knight Order and automatically became attendants, needing to grow stronger before they could be promoted to full members of the Knight Order.

Hearing Kane's question, Abby opened her mouth to speak, but a high-speed object flew over and crashed right into her arms.

"Hiss." Seeing Abby's eyes widen in pain as she clutched her stomach, Kane couldn't help but gasp.

And the one who flew over and crashed into her was a Moon's Child.

The Moon's Child stood in front of Abby, grinning, and said, "Abby, where did you just run off to? Su Si flew really well, right? Su Si will soon become a full member of the Knight Order."

There was no need to think further; this must be a student Abby was training.

Once Abby recovered, she stood up and ruffled Su Si's hair: "We'll train together later. I need to take His Majesty to the armory now."

Hearing this, Su Si stared at Kane and said, "Your Majesty, can I come along?"

Seeing this scene, Kane nodded his head, "Of course, come on."

With that, he headed towards the armory on the other side.

Upon seeing Kane's permission, Su Si immediately jumped onto Abby's back, wrapping her arms around Abby's neck.

"Su Si, loosen up a bit; I can't breathe," Abby couldn't help but say.

"Hehe," Su Si giggled and slightly loosened her grip.

Then Abby carried the clingy adornment and walked beside Kane.

They really had a great bond, Kane thought as he watched. It looked just like a father and daughter.

After a few steps, they reached the armory not far away.

The room, as usual, stored all kinds of armor, with various sets to choose from.

It didn't seem any different from before.

Kane carefully examined and indeed found something new: an added function.

Previously, the Knight Order's equipment was similar to the Explorer's equipment, with attributes equivalent to a normal Explorer's full set.

However, that was no longer the case; the Knight Order's equipment could now be replaced and upgraded to better attributes.

This, however, required the Forging Workshop's Steel Armor to redesign and the automatic forging function to be activated.

After all, it wasn't realistic to have Steel Armor alone forge complete sets of gear and weapons for over 1,000 people.

But Steel Armor could forge some high-quality equipment suitable for the Knight Order as a reward.

The current situation had the Knight Residence's armory linked with the Forging Workshop.

It proved to be a very beneficial modification.

After seeing these changes, Kane said to Abby beside him, "In a while, once Steel Armor adapts to the Mist's equipment, I'll have him redesign your equipment."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Kane nodded and then the two moved towards the exit.

On the way, Kane inquired, "How are things with you now?"

"The territory we took over is problem-free, and the other forces around seem to be changing. They are starting to learn from us."

"Learning? Elaborate."

Abby nodded, "After becoming real, lacking the previous logistical support, they've started hunting and farming. However, they're inexperienced in this, so they often observe and learn from us."

After considering Abby's words for a moment, Kane said, "In the future, you can directly send people over to guide them."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When the World Ring hadn't opened yet, different Dungeon forces couldn't engage in war.

The Command of the General Dungeon, which held good competitive potential, was divided by the nature of its race into various forces and couldn't unite.

The most distinctive feature of that Dungeon was its race and those troops. Since they couldn't merge, attacking each other honestly seemed pointless.

From the start, Kane wasn't planning to target the other forces of the Command of the General. The territories they occupied had nothing special.

It would be better to focus on the surrounding Dungeons; thus, building good relations with the surrounding forces was crucial.

Setting other things aside, these forces' soldiers had no issues with strength and coordination, holding great war potential.

The best outcome would be to forge simple alliances with them. Even though they were incompatible, they originated from the same Dungeon, naturally making collaboration easier than with other Dungeon forces.

Strengthening goodwill now could lead to alliances or even bringing them under their sway in the future.

It's important not to think about conquest and subjugation.

These strategies were best not discussed much with Abby. Abby's race was born for battle, and warfare was his specialty. It was better to discuss these tactics with Bonona.

The fact that they were pure soldiers was why Kane entrusted the Moon's Children to them.

They possessed the basic soldier attributes: calmness, composure, and patience.

With these qualities and minimal negative emotions, they were best suited for teaching the once-bullied Moon's Children.

With this, Kane found himself at the exit, bid farewell to Abby, and walked out of the Residence.

Then he teleported away from the Guild Hall.
