Chapter 590 Home Island Instances
Chapter 590 Home Island Instances
In the subsequent slides, the Island Instances of various minions were shown while the minions enjoyed their food and commented on the pictures. It got extremely lively and even the Sub System Users who had begun taking their supper, hope to eventually question Jin on the feasibility of this whole Open Dungeon concept he had in mind.
At the moment they were discussing how crazy some Island Instances looked like. The Zither Island Instance was where Ke Mi, Shu among with others would be situated. Jin had purposely created sufficient space for the wyrm ants to populate under the ground while Shu was located in the middle of a crater of their Home island.
The Ancient Treant was allowed to grow as large as he wished, which he approved a lot. In return, he would provide the base and foundation for Tree Apartments where various houses would 'grow' on the different height of Shu. Ke Mi wanted to take the lowest level as she did not wish to burden her Great White Snake too much.
Yet Sandy, the Sand Witch who would be staying with her told her not to worry that much and insisted that she takes the highest level instead. "I will bring you down if need be," Sandy said and reasoned that her song should be heard from the top of the tree instead of being at the bottom.
"You okay with Ke Mi?" The Zither Mistress, who had learnt to trust Sandy as much as her Great White Snake decided to listen to the Sand Witch instead.
"Of course, if you think I am merely an acquaintance, you are dead wrong. If anything, I am a fan of your songs." Sandy said as she knocked her shoulder with Ke Mi's as if to indicate her friendliness to the Zither Mistress.
However, it would be an understatement to call the Sand Witch just a fan. Sandy was heads over heels with Ke Mi's music.
Whenever she was free from her construction errands or on break, the Sand Witch would visit Ke Mi in the agriculture sector, and they would have an impromptu music performance with many also on break coming over to listen to.
When both were off their work, Sandy visited Ke Mi at home, and she would create Sand clones to play music instruments available to the Zither Mistress.
Furthermore, the other group to stay with them were the Boar Knights as well as Que Er, the Magpie Queens. The Boar Knights did not mind taking the bottom tier of houses since they were rather scared of heights. On the other hand, Que Er had an amicable partnership with Shu, who allowed her to house her magpies. He agreed to it so long as they did not make too much noise early in the morning. Other than that, she was welcome to stay with them as well.
During the feast, Jin came over to her to make sure the Magpie Queen was fine with his choice. When she nodded and told him it was a great idea, he asked her to meet him tomorrow at 11 for a particular errand. She found it weird considering the occasion but shrugged it off and continued enjoying the feast.
Given the large new space, Shu tried to persuade Jin, who was on his way to return to his table. The ancient Treant listed the benefits of getting more insects for the vitality of the earth as well as to keep his Mantis and Wyrm Ants less lonely.
"How about Piggycupines? I have them in a pen right now, and they are the only ones I did not invite because… Well, a number of our comrades are eating them right now." Jin suggested, and Shu pretended to give a horrified face.
"You! Evil! Heh, that was a bad joke. I do not want to go into existential crisis issues, but I do not mind them, I figure their giant poops should be good for my growth." Shu replied with a laugh as he would look forward to watching the Boar Knights trying to tame them as their steeds.
The next Island Instance was none other than the Werejackals' new home instance. Instead of a proper island, theirs was one of the more complex Island Instances which Jin had made. Mainly because of one thing.
Their farms.
They had been experimenting and even had dedicated a lot of their room for the production of Oil plants which the System took great care for. That was why the System was very willing to give a discount to Jin for making their Island Instance, as long as he would design it first. (and with profit in mind)
Thus, their Werejackal Island Instance was literally an ivory tower.
Their island included an inactive volcano and in the middle of the volcano stood a tower where all the expensive agriculture was done. The rest of the farming utilised the plots of land right beside the volcano. Jin tried to mimic the situation where the lands near the volcano were extremely fertile. And because of their large plots of farmland, the Werejackals would be situated at a seaport where most of the housing and stalls would be.
For the other werejackals, they would have to take a transport to their farms or the ivory tower for the farming work. At that point, both Gold and Weslie had already begun discussing what needed to be done and which plot of farmland would be used for which particular sets of crops.
The Dark Templars would be joining them too, and they had their own headquarters to call their own. Jin said that they would have to contribute with the farming efforts since security was currently not an issue. Yet, he did mention that there was no harm creating contingency plans in case the cultivators would wish to 'steal' crops.
The Dark Templars perked up, hearing that they could not only establish a security presence, but there were chances where they could also be hired as mercenaries for the Open Dungeon concept.
In the meantime, Jin also assured the Mousefolks that they too would be given a sanctuary to call home within the Werejackal Island Instance. He even specifically named one of the streets in the seaport after their old town's name, Ording Street.
"However, you'll have to earn your share! In the future, I will purposely place a cave full of minerals for you to guide cultivators who wish to mine as well as some monsters to spice things up, you know? Maybe if I have the time to create them, it will most probably be the Demon Rats, so feel free to fight against them!" Jin explained but all the Mousefolks had heard was one vital phrase.
Full of minerals.
This excited the miners of Ording, and it gave the Mousefolk a bit of anticipation that they could return to their old ways. The dungeon supplier also did not rule out the possibility of them helping with farming instead or even security work, especially when the opportunities were there for them to create since it was their home.
That's right. Jin wanted all of his minions to feel like they belonged.
