“This area–turn it into farmland.

“Search the surroundings for potatoes, kudzu, yams–anything viable. Transplant them directly. If there’s wheat or rice outside, even better.

“Nighthowl, help till the soil. Alwyn, cast Verdant Bloom.

“Oh, and wasn’t there talk about ostriches? Raise them. Protein will depend on them from now on.”

As everyone got to work-

Alwyn activated Verdant Bloom, causing all surrounding flora to undergo rapid evolution.

It wasn’t just the sweet potatoes and tubers; even the Peace Tree began to grow at an explosive rate.

The massive tree actually started to blossom.

Soon, the buds withered and gave way to fruits, each growing to the size of a large watermelon.

Joanna stared at the giant tree in surprise.

The fruit suddenly burst open.

In the next instant, countless snowy–white, translucent grains rained down from the sky–smelling and tasting exactly like high- quality rice.

And at that moment, Joanna finally noticed something.

The Peace Tree had an HP bar.

Under Verdant Bloom’s accelerated growth, the bar steadily climbed until it reached 100%.

“Congratulations. You have cleared: New Hope Base Defense (Level 45–Hell–tier).

“Clear Time: 8 hours 42 minutes 21 seconds.

“Would you like to save the current record? Current team: Decennial Team.”

The NPCs vanished.

All that remained was the rustling Peace Tree and the crops Joanna had prepared and planted for them.

Despite it being only an eight–hour dungeon, seeing the scene empty out left Joanna with a lingering sense of melancholy.

She recalled a post she had once read about a professional who fell in love with dungeon NPC during a seven–day clear.

He went mad with longing and spent the next two years repeatedly entering that same dungeon, living out a cycle of love within those seven days.

Just as he thought he could live that way forever, the dungeon’s resources were exhausted, and the Space Alliance shut it down.

The pro had spiraled into insanity. He traveled to the dungeon’s point of origin only to discover it had existed for 400 years- transitioning from an Abyss–tier raid down to a Common–tier instance before finally dissipating into nothingness.

“I suppose the Peace Tree storyline won’t exist anymore after this, right?”

Since Joanna had achieved an SSS–rank and taken the tree, the original giant Peace Tree would likely disappear.

Leaving it behind felt like a waste.

With a quick gesture from Joanna, Nighthowl understood immediately. He used his spatial powers to cut into the earth, encompassing a 320–foot radius.

Then, the massive Peace Tree was physically uprooted and pulled into the Stellar Dominion. Even the remaining sweet potatoes and tubers weren’t left behind; frugality was, after all, Joanna’s traditional virtue.

Once everything was secured, Joanna finally stepped out of the dungeon.

Outside the portal, the crowds had dispersed.

Saul had left, and Marlon and the others had long since returned to training–after all, the dungeon had lasted a full eight hours.

Only Ned remained in the lab.
