"The dormitory building has added ten new floors. Go find your own dorms quickly." Xu Lang waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse.

Upon hearing this, the crowd couldn't care less about anything else. They all rushed to seize dormitories and regain their player identities.

After the players entered the doorless dorms, Level 0 dormitory doors slowly materialized, allowing them to rebind their player identities.

Their accounts were back!

Their inventories hadn't changed at all.

But of course, as everyone scrambled for dorms, fighting broke out.

Wang Yazhi decisively led the Inspection Department members to maintain order.

"Count me in—I can see Sin Points!" Cao Yaxuan volunteered enthusiastically.

Doing good deeds was her shortcut to earning attributes, and nothing was a greater good than stopping evil acts.

Moreover, most Mad King Building players were steeped in sin. Cao Yaxuan declared she absolutely loved killing them!

...

The Mad King Building players discovered something terrifying.

All dormitories had their minimum level raised to five, including the freshman dorms below the tenth floor!

The Mad King Building had undergone a complete transformation, and the players felt somewhat unfamiliar with it.

The increase in initial dormitory levels indirectly sparked a rather comical wave of floor-swapping. Many players who didn't want to stay on their original floors carried their furniture and moved to other floors.

Dormitories above the tenth floor already had owners, but those below the tenth floor were unclaimed—a brand new blue ocean. If managed well, anyone could become a Floor Leader themselves!

Furthermore, many Tenants directly betrayed their original Dorm Owners!

For a moment, the Mad King Building was in astonishing chaos!

It was proven that people become blind in the face of profit. Even when committee members pleaded in the chat room, the players turned a deaf ear.

Because many committee members themselves were troublemakers.

After over an hour, the Inspection Department finally managed to temporarily quell the chaos, though there would likely be more disputes later—endless arguments, each side insisting they were right.

Cao Yaxuan didn't care about any of that. All she knew was that she'd had a blast killing, practically from the twentieth floor all the way down to the first.

Such a killing spree left even Su Yuan and the others feeling chilled to the bone.

She probably hadn't killed this many people even in the game!

Cao Yaxuan was no campus goddess—she was a bloodthirsty female demon!

...

This time, Xu Lang and the others didn't rush to count their gains. Instead, they took a tour around the upgraded Supermarket, Angel Church, and other places. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Including the four factories.

The Soul Factory could produce Ethereal Form Building Guards, up to a thousand units. Their combat ability was decent, and their level would increase as the Mad King Building grew stronger.

The Monster Factory, as the name suggested, seemed related to monsters. But in fact, its core product was Transformation Cards!

That's right—the same Transformation Cards that could grant players a temporary transformation, very familiar to veteran Mad King Building players.

Monster Transformation Cards came in many varieties, changing daily.

There were twelve assembly lines in total, capable of producing twelve types of Monster Transformation Cards.

The Factory Head could lock in an assembly line to keep it from changing.

The Facility Factory and Raw Material Factory, as their names implied, were used to produce facilities and raw materials—and they could mass-produce them!

Of course, since mass production was possible, the quality would naturally be middling to low.

With these two factories around, the mid-to-low-tier facilities sold in the Supermarket became much less desirable.

After completing his tour, Xu Lang already had a vision for the future structure of the Mad King Building.

Low-to-mid-tier players would buy facilities from the factories, high-tier players from the Supermarket, and top-tier players would rely on monster drops.

Back in the dormitory, Xu Lang discussed with the women briefly and handed over financial authority to Mary.

In the previous round, they'd looted many items. Figuring out how to price them reasonably based on market conditions was a headache. It was perfect to leave such tedious matters to Mary.

After that, they had a simple discussion about how to manage the factories.

For the factories to operate normally, they needed workers and managers.

This problem was a bit complicated, so they set it aside for now.

Anyway, the five factory growth keys were already in their hands. No one else could snatch them away.

Just then, Cao Yaxuan and Wang Yazhi returned.

"All handled?" Xu Ruyan raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Mm." Cao Yaxuan nodded repeatedly, quite pleased with herself. "Take a look at the chat room content—the atmosphere is positively pristine."

Xu Lang checked the total player count and looked surprised. "Over a hundred people missing?"

"You can't control them without severe punishment." Cao Yaxuan laughed. "Besides, things are already this bad. I don't have time to argue with them."

From the sound of it, Cao Yaxuan was still the main one doing the killing.

Xu Lang asked, "How many Free Attributes did you harvest?"

"Haha, not many—just over fifty points!" Cao Yaxuan laughed heartily in reply.

The women all felt a twinge of envy.

Wang Yazhi walked over coolly. Under the enhancement of her high-level gear, not a trace of blood clung to her, but the murderous aura still lingered between her brows. "The Twilight Building players were going stir-crazy, and the Mad King Building players are genuinely insane. None of them are quite right in the head."

Tong Qi sighed upon hearing this. "Ah, I'd better remind Huihui to tell them not to mess with their SAN values for no reason."

Once SAN value dropped, sometimes it never came back up.

Some players had restrained themselves too harshly, and their minds had already suffered permanent damage. Low-level recovery items were useless, and they weren't willing to use them anyway.

Being deliriously crazy was a perfectly fine mental state.

Moreover, there was another point worth pondering.

Now that dropping SAN value not only granted attribute boosts but also Knowledge, the trend of players manipulating their SAN values would only intensify.

"Let them do it. They'll behave once they turn into Mad Vanguards!" Senior Sister Red Butterfly sat with her legs crossed, holding a bright red apple, a carefree grin on her face.

"Red Butterfly, you don't understand the plight of Bottom-tier Players. Don't say things like that." Gu Ya frowned, feeling that Red Butterfly was being insensitive.

Senior Sister Red Butterfly immediately grew annoyed, and the two women started bickering.

With such contrasting personalities, squabbling was normal.

But this time, the conflict was a bit too intense. Xu Lang had to step in to stop it.

He forcibly changed the subject to something everyone could participate in.

—Stat Allocation!

Everyone had already looked at their exclusive items and visited the Supermarket. Their power systems wouldn't undergo major changes.

But having just gone through a round of the game, everyone still had plenty of insights and had somewhat realized their own shortcomings.

Senior Sister Red Butterfly and Tong Qi didn't care. Senior Sister Red Butterfly could freely switch between her two main attributes, and Tong Qi could borrow her ability.

After all the women finished their Stat Allocation, Xu Lang found himself in a bit of a dilemma.

Seeing his troubled expression, Cao Yaxuan finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Xu Lang, how many personal attribute points do you have now?"

"Almost five hundred. I feel like that's a qualitative threshold, so I'm not allocating points for now." Xu Lang shook his head.

The game had just ended, and there was still much to do.

If five hundred attribute points were a bottleneck, he would need to immediately undergo the Mad King Trial. If he didn't, he'd waste the training effects of the Pure Yang Immortal-Seeking Technique.

"Ohhh sh*t!!!" Cao Yaxuan was startled out of her wits. Her body turned into snow and ice, swirling around once before embracing Xu Lang from behind. "Share some with me, share some with me, share some with me!!!"

Cao Yaxuan came from a wealthy family and had been spoiled since childhood, so she had a bit of a willful nature. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come delivering herself to his doorstep when the game first descended.

Xu Lang didn't dislike her personality, though—it made her seem full of life. Besides, she yelled loudly enough, and her voice was quite pleasant to listen to.
