Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Chapter 93: Chapter 90: I Don't Understand, I'm Greatly Shocked! (Supplementary update 2/65)

The Mage sent by the Mage Academy rolled his eyes and said, "There's no need for precise mixing; special mud that transforms fossils into mud mixed one-to-one with ordinary sand will solidify into quite hard bricks.

This is something all Mages on the continent know. Haven't you seen any Mages in the Goddess's realm?"

"Mmm, sounds pretty convenient. But in our place, we don't use spells for such foundational construction," a player standing beside him said with a laugh.

The Academy Mage seemed to want to ask more about the situation in the divine realm but felt awkward about inquiring, scratching his head and finally said helplessly:

"Lord Kael has communicated with us. Now, Titan Town is really too small, and the expansion work must be prioritized without delay.

If you Undead are interested, try to perform a bit better during this period. I heard that some residents in town have been attracted by the work benefits, after all, the rewards Lord Kael offers are quite good."

Saying this, the Mage's face also wore a slight smile.

He had thought that coming to this border domain meant coming to endure hardships and brush up on his credentials, but unexpectedly, upon arriving here, the living conditions were not as bad as he imagined, and he could even make some extra money occasionally.

It was probably the psychological satisfaction that came from lowered expectations not being so disappointed in the end.

While he thought this, the players beside him were whispering among themselves.

"Damn, playing a game isn't about competing with players for quests, but competing with NPCs, this is just crazy!"

"Now that you mention it, I think I understand why Mages have such a special status in the game. Look at those who work as warriors; aside from fighting, they only have brute strength left, unlike Mages, who are truly a jack of all trades."

"That's right, those Universal Workers hired by Human Federation companies, at the same skill level, earn two to six thousand more Human Federation credits than workers specialized in a single domain!"

"Isn't that normal? Mages can handle more complex environments within the same profession, capable of doing foundation work as well as transforming into combat forces, no wonder they are called 'lord of spells'!"

The Academy Mage listening beside them was speechlessly amused.

These guys had no inclination to avoid speaking their minds, openly evaluating Mages right in front of him.

As a Supervisor sent by the Academy, he had been, under the commission of the Lord, leading the town residents in some basic construction work during this time.

To be honest, it was somewhat boring, if not for the money...

But these Undead were not wrong; Mages on the continent are like a swiss army knife, often summoned discreetly for tasks that seemed impossible to tackle.

They hoped Mages, with their myriad of spells, could turn the impossible into the possible.

Perhaps it was this demand that led to the various Mage sects developing many strange and unique spells.

Like him, not strong enough to excel or too weak to be dismissed, he might specialize in spells that quickly establish positions on the front line.

Although this would, to some extent, diminish his combat capabilities as a Mage, there were still many potential directions for his future.

Whether it was joining a domain's city construction team or becoming a logistics member in a team exploring Dungeons, there is a significant need for Mages capable of rapidly constructing positions.

Of course, if he wanted to directly construct houses like now, it's not just about spells, but also about a lot of basic labor to move materials and bricklayers using steel, wood structures, and other materials to build a stable framework for the house.

That's exactly what he was doing now.

He had not expected that the visitors from the divine kingdom would be so willing to take on such basic work.

Not only did they not mind the fatigue, they were now thoroughly enjoying playing with mud.

I don't understand, I'm utterly shocked!

It was beyond the understanding of the Academy Mages, who usually liked to slack off. How could they relish such a boring task?

Seeing them looking utterly exhausted yet still striving hard to sweep and carry bricks, he began to wonder if commanding the Undead to build the town might exhaust those seemingly less tired Undead.

Although it was rumored that these Undead possessed the ability to resurrect, rumors were just rumors. Without having seen it himself, he couldn't possibly joke about these people's lives.

After his repeated advice failed to persuade the players, he couldn't help but start worrying about his own safety.

Sorry, Lord Kael, these guys really seem to be aiming to work themselves to death, I need to ensure my own safety first.

Seeing the Mage's perplexed expression, a player by his side quickly seized the opportunity, put down the cart, and approached to ask,

"Mage sir, you seem troubled. Is there anything I can help with?"

The clever Mage patted his shoulder and said, "You're a smart man. Since you've offered, from today you'll be in charge of arranging tasks for the Undead in this area. Let's work together to help Lord Kael build his domain!"

The Mage finally made a choice in his mind.

These Undead were so intensely devoted to their work that they indeed vaguely resembled those fervent worshippers from the divine kingdom, as the rumors suggested.

If he continued to command these Undead himself, any problem could lead the Undead to point their fingers at him, the "supervisor."

He didn't want to suffer any consequences and decided to simply pick one of the seemingly less troublesome Undead to manage the others.

This way, if something did go wrong, the Undead would first blame that particular individual managing them, and it wouldn't have much to do with him, the minor Mage.

Humph, I really am quite clever.

The player appointed by the Academy Mage as the supervisor was thrilled, and said loudly, "I'm very willing to serve you, Mage sir."

After saying this, he eagerly went off to find the other players to assign tasks.

The distribution of tasks among players was simple. After accepting a team task, sharing it with others would quickly organize the group.

The little Mage didn't realize that his act of distributing tasks unwittingly enhanced the players' potential even more.

After all, only players knew how to better coordinate with other players.

Even though the newbies didn't know the value of Demon Crystals or what their salary might be, an inexplicable enthusiasm still spurred them to take proactive and swift actions.

But… even so, some players still found themselves in troubling situations.

For example, Cat the Non-Sleeper, a female player who joined the game from the first beta round, was now facing a very awkward dilemma.
