A massive haul of steel in his bag, Lin Yue was quite satisfied.

The disappearance of Tokyo Tower, one of the neon city’s landmarks, was just that—a disappearance.

Honestly, he wasn’t bothered.

Whoever cares can care all they want.

Having acquired so much steel, it could be used to construct a section of track for a short- to mid-distance rapid train.

Although the amount was considerable, it still felt insufficient to Lin Yue.

This amount wasn’t enough at all.

What other buildings in Tokyo are made entirely of steel?

Ah yes, in such a large city, the railway system should be fairly developed, right? Tokyo Tower is a famous tourist spot; there should be a train station or metro station nearby, right?

Lin Yue thought that if possible, he could find some tourist maps and search the area according to them.

Lin Yue looked at the large pit that used to be the foundation, and then shifted his gaze to a nearby three-story small building.

The building was truly small, so small that Lin Yue almost overlooked it.

"Seems like... an orphanage." Lin Yue walked up to the small building, about twenty meters long and three stories high, recalling the place he once lived.

That was also a small building, and in his memory, it wasn’t much different from this.

Grayish and lifeless.

However.

The orphanage truly felt oppressive, while this building had existed for over thirty years in solitude.

From the outside, some of the glass was broken, and vine plants clung to the walls, covering almost one-third of the surface.

Inside the open glass doors, it was silent.

"Let’s see what’s inside, and if there’s nothing worthwhile, might as well demolish it all. Reinforced concrete is still greatly needed here."

Below the short- to mid-distance rapid train tracks, he planned for those tracks to be supported by elevated bridges, and as much as he might indulge, he couldn’t build solely with pure alloy.

Reinforced concrete was the first choice.

"Xiao Meng, how’s it here?"

"Grrrroar!" Xiao Meng stood at the glass doors of the building, let out a low growl, and instantly, the Little Ice Lizards turned into streaks of silver light and rushed inside.

Soon, sounds of crackling and some mysterious creatures shrieking came from within.

After a while, a giant insect and a swarm of smaller bugs rushed out through the door!

Xiao Meng suddenly let out a roar, stretched out a huge claw to grab the insect about seven to eight meters long and more than half a meter in diameter, armored all over, while gently supporting it with his other claw, twisting his waist!

Boom!!

A dull sound echoed, the giant insect was pinned down by Bai, its frantically writhing slender limbs protruding towards the sky like a slanted tower.

However, within seconds, this frantic trembling gradually ceased until it finally collapsed on the ground, completely motionless.

"Grrrroar." After eliminating the biggest enemy with no expression, Xiao Meng turned to look at the owner who had eliminated the smaller bugs with his AK.

"Nicely done, Xiao Meng!" Lin Yue slapped Xiao Meng’s extended paw and set down the AK.

No doubt, the modified AK is quite powerful.

Having gotten used to the gun, Lin Yue now utilized the AK as a mid-range sniper rifle.

Although there is a sniper pistol, it doesn’t feel quite like the AK.

Effortlessly eliminating the blood-sucking worms that had rushed out with the giant insect, Lin Yue felt rather satisfied.

Not having the Copper Treasure Chest or Iron Treasure Chest pop out was excellent.

With seven thousand Copper Treasure Chests at home, there’s no need for more.

And the Secret Realm has this advantage.

Even if his chest drop rate is one hundred percent, killing a billion Secret Realm Beasts here wouldn’t yield a single chest.

For Lin Yue, who gets headaches seeing anything less than a Golden Treasure Chest drop, the Secret Realm is like heaven.

But.

This is undoubtedly a paradise. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Compared to the Otherworld.

Here, there are no disasters, no Lizardmen.

There are innumerable mineral deposits, endless possibilities.

Otherworld?

Even without disasters, it ultimately isn’t mankind’s homeland.

If forced to say, it’s like a strange, hazardous Secret Realm.

Indeed, Earth remains Earth, though called a "Secret Realm."

Yet the Otherworld seems more like an unknown Secret Realm.

"Anyway, on Earth, you won’t find a ridiculous world where slaying a beast results in treasure chests popping up. Wouldn’t you agree, Xiao Meng?"

"Grrrroar." Xiao Meng nodded his massive head, not comprehending things beyond what his owner did.

But he could see the owner truly liked this place.

This world that originally didn’t exist.

Of course, Bai wasn’t originally from this world, and neither were the Little Ice Lizards.

Despite the myriad monsters, it’s clear that, in the owner’s eyes and memories, everything once was beautiful here.

But now, Xiao Meng could only see endless gloom and the bodies of Secret Realm Beasts.

"Let’s go, Xiao Meng."

The Secret Realm Beasts inside the three-story building had all been cleared, and the Little Ice Lizards returned to his side.

Must say, they’re very efficient.

If they could evolve, reaching the second stage like Xiao Liuzi, then perhaps just seven or eight could effortlessly clear a significant portion of the Secret Realm Beasts in this Secret Realm.
