Under Ji Chen’s control, two water drills slowly took shape.

He placed his mental focus on them, causing them to rotate and operate simultaneously. Instantly, he felt the difficulty of controlling them increase several-fold.

But he didn’t stop at two. After getting used to it for a while, Ji Chen’s mind conjured a third water drill, attaching his mental power to it as well, and it began rotating too.

The difficulty increased several-fold once again.

His mental power felt the pressure of having to control three drills at once. One would stop inadvertently, while another would spin too fast.

However, Ji Chen seemed to find joy in this challenge. He worked hard to control them, making them operate at the same rhythm and cooperate with each other.

This was different from Alice’s mental manipulation. Alice used the inherent intelligence of monsters as a foundation to bewitch and control them, essentially controlling the spirits of these creatures and making them follow their original consciousness to fight. It had a material basis.

But Ji Chen’s current operation was about giving inanimate objects that he had condensed from water a certain degree of self-operation capability. It was akin to making lifeless things move on their own, and the difficulty was not even on the same level.

Under his diligent efforts, his control gradually improved, and it didn’t feel as challenging as before.

The three water drills could now operate perfectly simultaneously. During excavation, they could also look out for each other and coordinate, even performing both self-rotation and revolution at the same time, greatly increasing their digging efficiency.

Vaguely, Ji Chen felt that he could condense more water drills, but the current situation clearly didn’t allow for more. The combined force of the three water drills had already blocked the entire cave entrance.

Under the astonished gazes of Yasen and his team, the three water drills went all out. The obstructing rocks were like paper, easily broken through, and the entrance to the cave swung open.

Efficiency had increased by more than ten times compared to before.

As a military commander who had come to power through martial force, Yasen may not have been a spellcaster, but from the beginning to now, he had some understanding of how difficult it was to simultaneously control three independently operating and cooperating drills.

This was a display of control over magic power and a manifestation of tremendous mental strength.

In his heart, Yasen had a greater appreciation for Ji Chen.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed Ji Chen’s actions coming to a halt, with a somewhat dazed look on his face. He couldn’t help but ask, “Your Excellency, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing, just feeling a bit tired,” Ji Chen coughed lightly, but he was quite perplexed in his mind.

Upon hearing this, Yasen tactfully said, “Then take a break for now, don’t exhaust yourself due to excessive use of magic power.1’

Ji Chen nodded and dispersed the water drills with a wave of his hand. He leaned against the rocky wall and closed his eyes as if resting, but his mind was still open to system notifications.

Just moments ago, he suddenly received a system notification in his ear.

“Ding- Due to your attempts and development, you have comprehended a new skill: Multitasking (Purple Skill).”

???

What just happened? How did he suddenly comprehend a purple skill?

He opened the panel to find this new skill.

“[Multitasking (Purple Skill): Can infuse mental energy into several condensed objects, granting them a certain degree of autonomous action capability].”

Although the comprehension was somewhat sudden, Ji Chen quickly recognized the enormous potential of this skill.

As the name and description implied, Multitasking allowed him to grant a certain degree of autonomous action capability to several objects he had condensed.

Today, he had condensed the form of water drills. That meant he could also condense humanoid water warriors. If he attached his mental power to them, similar to how he controlled the water drills, according to the skill’s description, it wouldn’t take long for them to become warriors capable of autonomous combat.

He pondered deeply.

This appearance was somewhat like Sea Heir. All the water warriors he had condensed were indirectly controlled by him, fearless in the face of life and death.

However, the specific usage and level of strength required would only become clear after he had conducted precise experiments.

Ji Chen opened his eyes and continued with the excavation.

Under his efforts, blocked caves and passages were dug open one by one, and trapped individuals were rescued. Soon, thousands of elves and soldiers had gathered in the camp on the high ground by the marshes.

It wasn’t until the last collapsed cave was opened, and the final group of elves was rescued, that Ji Chen let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Exiting the cave, he looked up at the sky.

A bright moon hung high, and it was already evening.

From early morning until now, he had been digging, exhausting his magic power, then recovering, and exhausting it again, repeating this cycle at least six or seven times. At this moment, he felt more drained than ever, as if his body had been emptied.

But when he thought about the gains he could obtain from this effort, he suddenly felt a sense of fulfillment.

Working hard and exhausting oneself for resources were all worth it!

Yasen, who had been by his side throughout the process, also had a hint of weariness on his face. He was busy commanding the removal of rubble and transporting the rescued injured soldiers, which was not an easy task. However, seeing that most of the trapped elves had been rescued, he couldn’t help but relax internally.

Seeing that it was getting late, Yasen spoke to Ji Chen.

“Your Excellency, it’s quite late now. This place is quite a distance from Maple City and Maple Harbor. How about resting here for the night in the temporary camp?

It’s a good opportunity to continue excavating the remaining caves tomorrow and uncover rhe Deceivers’ various storage rooms.”

After a moment of consideration, Ji Chen nodded in agreement. Following Yasen’s lead, they crossed rhe now-tide-covered marshes and arrived at the temporary camp on the nearby high ground.

However, what surprised them was….
