Chapter 59：The Dungeon Lord discovers the benefits of recycling.
After leaving the twins in the mad dog's room and telling them to not try to enter the second floor, I made another room on the west side of the farming camp and carried the children there so they could have a nice sleep.
With nothing pending, I went back to the dungeon core to meditate a bit about this whole mess going on outside.
While I had no idea how much of truth the sisters had told me, the last influx of refuges added to the orcs following them was enough to convince me that at least 90% of what they said was true.
"So War came knock on my door in the middle of the night.... Really, talk about random development."
Sigh...
From the bits and pieces I remember of my past life I had quite a few experiences with small battles but nothing close to a real war.
Damn! How lucky is the current me that not even a year from being born is already involved in a real war!? T_T
Well, this time I got a Dungeon, so maybe my luck is not that bad...?
"Status!"
[Understood!]

"Big Brother Dead Knight's Cave... those brats..." T_T
Odd... Even with all those elves inside the Mana consumption does not change. Is there some special rule? Maybe guests don't count... No, this would be ridiculous... Or maybe they can't absorb the Mana because they are not part of the Dungeon?
Hey, maybe I can tell them a different title to change the Dungeon name?
Well, let's leave it for later...
What else we got here... Oh! Take a look at this Mana!
It's been 3 days since I used all my Mana on summons, since the productivity is 80, I should have about 240u, and I even used a big magic just now, why does it appear 390u??
Where did all this extra Mana came from?
...
Dunno. T_T
Well, let's pay more attention and see if we can find out how to do it again. If we can exploit this, it would be very useful later.
Talking about the future, how much longer for Rank up?
"Expansion!"
[Understood!]
...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Defense Force expansion (5/5)
-Task Force expansion (1/1)
-Traps installed (0/5)
-Conversion of Miasma (7950/10000)
-Floor Expansion (2/2)
-Rank D Monster Core (3/3)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The conversion is on 7950...
Wait! The rate is 200 per day, how can the ten slot have changed?
It seems like the dungeon converted some extra miasma from something...
What could have been absorbed by the dungeon...
Oh!!! The orcs!!!!
If this is right, maybe this war can be really beneficial to me... as long as I can get my hands on many corpses, ranking up will be easy!
Wait... is this why those other dungeon start attacking villages around them?? To speed up the rise in rank?
Hmm, kinda merciless but somehow this is starting to make sense. Well, let's leave this as a last option, I can't let these short term benefits cloud my eyes and turn me into an enemy of the whole World.
Anyway, back to the orcs, I think there should be another corpse outside. Lets try bringing it in and see if the numbers change!
"Teleport, Entrance!"
[Understood!]
...
As I appear in the entrance I hear the scream of some elves surprised by my sudden appearance.
I ignore them and walk to the fat corpse in front of me.
"Damn! This guy is heavy! Pull!!! Pull!!!"
One pull at a time, slowly but surely, I brought the orc to inside the dungeon.
As soon as the Dungeon noticed the orc, it started disappearing like the others before it.
"Good, now it's time to go back. Teleport, Dungeon Core!"
I think out loud and send the teleport command through the wall.
"Hey, wa-"
As my body is engulfed by the light, I hear some familiar voice screaming something but it all happens so fast that I didn't have a chance to hear it well enough to understand.
Oh! The cursed shield!
"Teleport, entrance!"
[Understood!]
"Oh, thanks for coming back, actually-"
"Hey, hmm Gee right?"
"No, it's Geo."
"That doesn't matter. Anyway, tell your elves to not touch that shield over there, it's cursed."
"What!? Cursed!? I see, thank you!"
"No problem, good night. Teleport, dungeon core."
"Good night. No! Wa-"
Good, now that the shield problem has being temporarily taken care of, let's see that status.
"Status!"
[Understood!]

Great! 8000!!!
Lucky that orc was left outside, or I may have never noticed this.
Now, if I can get my hands on another 20 or so orcs.... hehehe...
All right, let's take a small nap. When this morning arrives it seems like I will be a lot of things to do.
