The memories of the entire month of surveillance over the Crimson City come rushing back to me.

Just after my main body left for the exams, another order of materials was picked up by my double in Vice City.

All of the new apartments, grocery stores, businesses, streets, and installations to the outer city that I witnessed through the eyes of Maria and Abby become far clearer to me.

The trade routes that stretch out of Sector 2 now connect to many villages in Sectors 3 and 1, and the construction is still in progress to wrap all the way around the Dark Continent to reach Sector 4.

To fill the new grocery stores, the Sector 3 trade deals have progressed nicely. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and livestock are being transported from the various farming towns.

Now instead of sending body doubles to the 8 Great Regions to import food, over 80% of the produce can be purchased from the source.

The remaining necessities are still sourced from Solara and Vice City's bulk supermarkets.

As the roads are being built off far into the Dark Continent, more and more people are visiting the town, and dozens of people are forming links of loyalty every day to enter the inner city to gain access to the dungeons as well as find jobs to live a better life than out in the poverty of the smaller villages.

One of my doubles has been hard at work farming element stones from the 39th floor, imbuing them with mythic-grade plunderer, and collapsing rogue dungeons far away from villages all throughout the entire continent.

Hundreds more luminite fragments have been farmed and placed into a containment case thanks to Bri, and they're kept in storage beneath the guildhall.

Using the farmed mana, the Labyrinth grows at a steady rate.

With a double working on building up its floors as its sole task 24/7, the number of floors begins to rise very quickly.

In just a week, my double manages to grow the labyrinth up to 40 floors.

Instead of only having one monster per floor like the setup in Vice City, my labyrinth is programmed differently. There is only a boss room at the top; all of the other floors spawn monsters regularly like normal dungeons.

This means once the floors above 40 are created, full training areas with double-ranked-up creatures begin to spawn in one after another.

The following week brings the labyrinth up to floor 50, and my doubles find a clear difference in patterns on these new floors.

After the 40th floor, the level of monsters rises at a much faster rate than the floors below.

The 41st is full of double-ranked-up Elite Ice Golems all between level 1075 and 1110, while in the 42nd, there are massive winged bat-like creatures that fly high above black mountains ranging from level 1200 to 1240.

Every floor that follows above this follows the same pattern, rising by roughly 100 levels.

The 50th floor has monsters that surpass level 2000, and as the memories of all these events rush through my mind, I come to the logical conclusion that for my own level to reach what it has, the floors must have hit 60 or higher by the end of the month.

Each time more mana is added to the labyrinth, some floors tend to spawn mutants and the levels fluctuate slightly, but each time the next floor is added they settle down and come back to a stable state.

The specific body double that I'm watching now takes a different shift, but it does communicate with one of my doubles that helps train the army of recruits.
