Time passed.

All passages leading to the underground beehive were completely blocked by walls Yang Tao borrowed from Level 0.

However, Yang Tao also discovered the characteristic of the Backrooms' walls, which is that they possess a certain Bugs Bunny trait: when destroying them from the outside, there's a chance of getting stuck inside the Backrooms world.

This was quite interesting.

Overworld

Yang Tao collected a large amount of clay blocks and sand from the Detective Conan World; these two materials are ubiquitous in ordinary worlds.

He took out red bricks from his backpack; these red bricks were not obtained by firing clay balls, but were ordinary red bricks Yang Tao picked up and fired in the Detective Conan World.

The main reason was to save on high costs.

"First, I'll make 10 leaky potted plant pots to use; if that's not enough, I'll make more later."

The 'Potting' mod added two blocks that conveniently allow planting saplings and only occupy two blocks of space.

These are the potted plant pot and the leaky potted plant pot.

After planting, a small tree will appear in the center of the pot and grow continuously; the style of the small tree differs depending on the type of sapling planted.

When the small tree grows to a certain size, it will stop growing; at this point, you can right-click with an axe to harvest it, which will consume a bit of the axe's durability, after which the chopped sapling will disappear, and a new plant will begin to grow in the center of the potted plant pot.

Plants in the potted plant pot can be matured with bone meal, and the pot itself can be quickly destroyed with an axe, dropping saplings and soil.

The leaky potted plant pot is the same as a regular potted plant pot.

The difference is that if there is a container below, when the sapling in the pot matures, it will directly store the dropped items into the container and then automatically start the next growth cycle, allowing for automation by connecting a hopper or pipe below.

And it's extremely simple to craft, requiring only 5 red bricks, even the leaky potted plant pot only costs one more hopper.

"The author of this mod can truly be considered among the top three most conscientious authors."

Yang Tao murmured with emotion, casually taking out the super rechargeable battery he got from the doctor and stuffing it into Digimon's mouth.

This thing has sufficient power and high voltage; Digimon eats it without a sound, and most importantly, it can be recharged and reused.

He placed the crafted leaky potted plant pots on empty chests, took out dirt and oak saplings, and planted them; a miniature oak tree only a few centimeters tall appeared in the pots, then grew at a visible rate.

"Ah? No limit?"

If he had known it grew so fast, Yang Tao would have made fewer.

"Never mind, I'll use them eventually anyway. First, I'll upgrade the Overworld. The space is a bit small again now, and I don't know if this upgrade will give me diamond…"

He glanced at his accumulated energy value.

Energy Value: 114,800

"The upgrade needs 80,000… I'll still have over 30,000 left, which is not bad…"

After Silent Hill's surface world was digitized, it completely disrupted Yang Tao's previous plans; originally, he wanted the people there to completely excavate Silent Hill's surface world, but after digitization, anything in Silent Hill's surface world lost its value for exchanging energy.

However…

Those guys could farm in Silent Hill.

"Upgrade!!"

As Yang Tao's words fell.

The mist around the Overworld dissipated again, revealing a large amount of grass blocks, and even a large area of buildings appeared in the distance.

Seeing this, Yang Tao was very surprised.

"A village?!"

Yang Tao walked towards the village, gazing at the situation inside. This village was larger than he had imagined; besides the most basic civilian houses, he even saw a blacksmith's shop, a church, a library, and farmland in the village, which meant it had exceeded the specifications of a regular village.

Two Iron Golems wandered near the village, protecting the Villagers' safety.

However, before he could explore the blacksmith's shop.

A Green-robed Villager idling on the outskirts of the village spotted him. Yang Tao clearly saw him freeze, then wave his two rectangular arms, shouting as he ran into the village.

"Ah, ah, ah! Yang Tao, the Great Demon King, is here! Yang Tao, the Great Demon King, is here!!"

Yang Tao: "..."

Just as he was shocked that the Villagers had intelligence, another Villager, a Librarian, heard his shouting and blocked the Green-robed Villager, kicking him to the ground.

"What nonsense are you spouting?! Someone quickly take him home."

"Ah, ah, ah, let go of me! I've guarded the village at night, I've bled for us! I refuse! I want to see the Village Chief!"

Two Villagers, who had gathered around upon hearing the commotion, immediately came out and escorted him into the village. One of the Villagers even quipped, "We don't even have blood; where did you bleed from?"

Yang Tao: "..."

Oh no, there isn't a single normal Villager in this village.

He stood in place, watching the farcical scene before him, truly not knowing where to begin complaining.

The Librarian who had kicked down the Green-robed Villager walked towards him with a fawning expression.

Only a ghost would know how a block face could show such a fawning smile.

"Steve, the brave hero, how can I help you?"

Although the other party's hands were clasped in front of his chest and his body stood extremely straight, when Yang Tao heard his voice, the image of a traitor couldn't help but surface in his mind.

"You have intelligence?"

"Uh, of course. While I don't have much brain, it's definitely enough."

"You know my name?"

Yang Tao hadn't forgotten that the foolish Villager at the beginning had called him by his name, not Steve.

The Librarian nodded slightly and said, "Of course I know. You are the Creator God of the world. We knew your name from the moment we were born."

Creator God?

Yang Tao nodded slightly. He had painstakingly dug for various materials to exchange for energy and continuously expanded the Overworld space. Saying he was the Creator God was a bit far-fetched, but it was understandable.

"Then what does Great Demon King mean?"

"He's a fool; he's talking nonsense."

Looking at the Librarian Villager's embarrassed and constrained expression, Yang Tao knew that this guy was definitely not telling the truth.

However, what he found interesting was that even though these Villagers could trick people, their expressions couldn't be hidden at all, and he wondered if it was a characteristic.

His gaze fell on the blacksmith's shop in the village, and the Librarian Villager guessed Yang Tao's thoughts.

He said, "Brave hero, there's a set of iron armor and a few obsidian in the blacksmith's chest…"

Yang Tao immediately straightened his face and said, "What are you saying! What are you saying!"

"Am I the kind of person who covets such small things?"

"This is a blatant insult. No, if there aren't thirty or fifty emeralds today, this matter won't be settled."
