The crowd suddenly became quiet.

But not long after, all the Yans knelt down and bowed deeply to Joshua.

Seeing this scene, Joshua immediately felt the trust of these people toward the old village chief.

Therefore, Joshua took the initiative to walk to the old village chief’s side and helped him down from the big rock.

“Everyone, get up! I’m very honored to be your new village chief! From now on, we will fight side by side and build a prosperous and rich city in the eastern continent!”

After saying that, the leaders of the various demi-human races all came to Joshua’s side one by one and reported their current numbers as well as the amount of grain they had in reserve.

At this time, it was the butler’s turn to appear.

He immediately took out a folding table and chair from the supplies that he had brought over and just like that, he started working right there on the spot.

Joshua brought the guards and maids to the village to check on its current situation. However, he found that the village was more problematic than he had imagined.

There was really nothing there, only three small and shabby houses!

Left with no choice, Joshua could only ask the village chief, “Village Chief Carl, why is this the only place with buildings in this area?”

When Carl heard this, he just nodded and then slowly explained, “This is because of that king more than a thousand years ago. At that time, he gave an order to liberate all the demi-humans in the eastern continent and let them live according to their own customs! He also clearly stipulated that no one was allowed to develop this area for the next thousand years

“We must wait until a thousand years later when someone from the Lancelot Empire comes to take over this land before we are allowed to develop it again. Therefore, when you came to Puba, you could only see these three half-collapsed wooden houses. Even the wooden fences around them were built because some of the children were too bored!”

After saying that, old Village Chief Carl was immersed in his memories as if he had returned to more than a thousand years ago.

After a long time, he continued, “I thought that it was just a joke back then. I didn’t expect that I would be alive to witness your arrival.”

Hearing that, Joshua could not help but be shocked. His ancestors had guessed that such a thing would happen more than a thousand years ago!

No matter how he looked at it, it sounded a little surreal. However, he had no choice but to believe that it was possible.

This was because when Joshua was playing games at home, he suddenly traveled through space and was reborn into this world!

After understanding the situation here, Joshua took his leave and exited the house.

At this time, Mortimer had already finished the statistical work and brought over a thick record form.

Because there was no place to sit, he could only return to his own luxurious carriage that they had ridden on the way here.

He flipped through the information in his hands and prepared to pick out some people and resources amongst the races that were present.

He carefully told them the necessary construction plans to be done. Even if they could only build a modest house, he would at least have a place to stay in at the very least.

There was far too much information to go through. Joshua had only managed to read half of it by the time night had fallen.

He was too sleepy. He did not know when he had fallen asleep with stacks of information still being held in his hands.

A voice appeared in Joshua’s head.

[Congratulations, host! You have activated the god-tier Overlord System!]

[System loading… 10%, 50%, 100%… Successful loading…]

[System activation successful. The host, Joshua Lancelot, will be rewarded with a dragon egg of a random gender.]

It was then that Joshua suddenly felt a huge egg appear in his arms.

But because he was too sleepy, he adjusted his position and hugged the egg as he went back to sleep.
