In the future, adventurers will inevitably focus on the whole world, but not all adventurers are good people. On the contrary, it's already quite good if ordinary adventurers can read; it would be immoral to expect much morality from them.

While not everyone on the internet is evil, their average moral standard is even lower than that of the internet.

Therefore, regulations and restrictions in this regard must be in place, and only those who pass the assessment will be allowed to leave Orario.

While it's impossible to completely eliminate adventurers' acts of bullying and oppression in the outside world, the benefits still outweigh the drawbacks.

As for the remaining adventurers who didn't pass the review... Ming Ge plans to team up with production and commerce families to open a factory and sell their products outside of Orario, so at least they won't starve.

In the future, Orario will no longer export magic stones, but will instead export various products and expand its reach worldwide.

Truly ambitious adventurers, such as the Loki Familia and Freya Familia, cannot be deterred from continuing their explorations even by the activity in Dungeon.

As for the adventurers who came to this 'center of the world' with dreams in their hearts... let alone when the Dungeon are active, even when they are not, very few can withstand the blows of reality.

The most common scenario is that, after numerous setbacks, people drift along with the tide, becoming scum who feast on meat, drink heavily, and ridicule the dreams and aspirations of newcomers.

It may be rude to say this, but it is the truth.

If there are indeed such adventurers, the surveillance that Ming Ge arranged at the entrance of Orario will be useful, and he will be able to absorb his own Familia at that time.

Just like Freya, Ming Ge can see through souls, and to some extent, she can also see through people's character and potential.

Next, Ming Ge needs to prepare for taking over Orario; there are many things to consider.

There's one more thing we need to do: bring Ais Wallenstein back.

Although there's no rush, it's still best to do what you've promised to do as soon as possible.

"Mavis, you should go there."

Ming Ge said in a low voice.

"Learn."

Particles of light appeared before Ming Ge, forming a human silhouette.

The fairy-like, elegant loli bowed slightly, then transformed into light elements and departed once more.

The elementalization of light could theoretically achieve a speed equivalent to the speed of light.

Short-distance movement is generally done from a fixed point, while long-distance movement uses magic to set a distance limit, allowing for almost instantaneous arrival.

Therefore, after sensing the wind's protection, Ming Ge controlled Mavis to transform into light and move.

After adjusting the direction and distance several times, we arrived at our destination.

"It's an abandoned ruin..."

Ming Ge muttered to herself.

By striking with the Pillar of Light, a hole was quickly created in the ground.

Mavis transformed into a light element and moved downwards, where she saw a blonde little girl sleeping peacefully like a baby, enveloped in a wind barrier.

"Release it."

Using long-range wind magic, Ming Ge broke the barrier.

Although the barrier's power has weakened considerably, it can still ensure she remains asleep for a few more years, so it's better to use the key to break the spell.

"Still sleeping?"

Picking her up from the bed, Mavis pinched Ais's cheek.

As expected, I couldn't sense anything... Come to think of it, these dolls haven't been equipped with sensory systems yet.

However, Ais seemed to sense something, and frowned slightly with unease.

This magic, capable of causing people to sleep peacefully for a thousand years, as if time had frozen at that moment, is approaching the realm of power.

Of course, it's only close. After all, the Great Fairy Spirit is a member of the gods' family and is also known as an incarnation of the gods, so it's normal for it to possess this level of power.

"Come back first."

With a muttered sound, a protective shield of light enveloped Mavis.

Although it carries a form that others cannot move in elemental form, this shield of light can isolate external resistance to the greatest extent, allowing it to move at high speed.

Even if it cannot reach the speed of light, it is still incomparable to conventional means of transportation.

In less than an hour, Mavis brought Ais back home.

"Woke up?"

Mavis placed Ais on the sofa, and then Ming Ge asked.

Ais didn't open her eyes, but her expression changed noticeably.

Upon discovering that she was being held by a stranger and flying through the air, Ais closed her eyes and pretended to be dead.

Ming Ge didn't want to talk to Ais through Mavis, and seeing her like this, she pretended not to know anything about it.

"Alright, wake up."

Ming Ge pinched her cheek, a layer of green wind swirling between her fingers, and said, "Your parents entrusted you to my care, so you should be very familiar with this wind."

Ais opened her eyes, stared blankly at the wind on Ming Ge, and felt a sense of familiarity.

She quickly realized what was happening and asked urgently, "Mom... where are you now?"

"They have already returned to the Celestial Realm."

Upon hearing Ming Ge's words, Ais's blank expression darkened.

She could never forget the scene of her father and mother being devoured by the Black Dragon.

Along with the loss, anger and hatred filled her heart.

Don't you want to know your parents' last words?

Ming Ge interrupted her reminiscence.

"I want to know."

Ais stared blankly at Ming Ge, and after a long while, nodded heavily.

Although only seven years old, this child is very intelligent and knows everything.
