Chapter 314: Level 3 Inn!

[Upgrade Conditions for Inn Upgrade Met!]

Finally! Finally moving forward!

Finn curiously looked at the so-called requirements that he had apparently completed.

Gulp. Wow, he really accomplished a lot, huh? Also, time ran really fast.

Well, he hadn’t been idle the past months. Not to mention the money from the endless stream of customers, the business with Leez was also showing fruits!

He was just a bit reluctant to part with all those toughened-level cores required to upgrade, but what could he do? He could only invest.

Anyway, he had a feeling that he wouldn’t regret it.

….

[Upgrade Purchased! -100,000 Gold, -100,000 Hearth Points, -100 Rank 3 Essence Cores]

[Inn Upgraded! Level 2 → Level 3]

[Area increased!]

[New Buildings Available!]

[Expansion Module Duplication Cap increased to 10,000 modules!]

[Gardens Duplication Cap increased to 1,000 fields!]

When he chose to upgrade, there were a lot of people inside the inn. It was unavoidable now. There was always someone in the inn, so he just upgraded immediately because he could.

According to Pang, this was the final upgrade, so the gap in the changes was quite wide.

From 3,000 square meters, it expanded straight to 100,000 square meters—a full 10 hectares. For a village, this was nothing special, but for an Inn it was quite large.

Considering they didn’t have massive farmlands here, in fact, they could really fit in a small village.

Finn excitedly went to check the new available construction for him.

First of all, he could finally increase the shell’s size to three floors, adding several more inn rooms. There was also a clinic, a public bath, and even a communication center as new buildings!

As for infrastructure, there were roads! The type that could be built outside the barrier!

He forced himself to calm down and actually read the descriptions this time.

[Clinic]

[Information: Allows for each occupant to quickly heal any wounds, ailments, or status effects. Stackable with existing inn effects, regeneration skills, and passives of the patient.

Cost: 10000 Gold, 50000 Hearth Points]

Finally, something to help with immediate injuries! There were healers, but how many were there? How much could they do before using up their mana? Furthermore, they cannot heal everything and perhaps be fast enough in some cases. Not to mention, every skill of theirs had cool down. What if there were a lot of patients?

[Bath]

[Information: Creates pools to cleanse and rejuvenate the guests.

Cost: 10000 Gold, 50000 Hearth Points]

[Communication Center]

[Information: Central hub for information exchange.

Cost: 15000 Gold, 150000 Hearth Points]

He looked curious, not quite sure how that would work. And it was a lot more expensive than the other two, and this meant the underlying principles were either more complicated or more energy-consuming.

[Outer Roads]

[Information: Roads buildable outside the barriers. Has a minor speed increase buff.

Module Size: 1m x 1m (dimensions flexible)

Duplicable: No Limits

Cost: 1 gold, 100 Hearth Points per module]

First of all, those roads or any of the buildings weren’t cheap. Fortunately, he still had some money and points!

Well, that would change after this, but still!

He started by creating the zones. He increased the farm areas and got Tumble to fence it properly.

A main road was extended from the plaza, extending to the edge of the barrier, and roads branched from here.

Since most of the areas were forests and camping grounds, he concentrated the buildings in an area, leaving a decent amount of space and parks in between, with just enough distance so they were not cluttered to look at.

For the clinic, he placed it adjacent to the main roads and next to the Guilds. Most of the people from outside were coming in from this direction. So he thought that the clinic, which was used for emergency situations, would be better off to be one of the first buildings that injured people could see.

Further, placing them near the guilds was a gesture of goodwill. It was nearer the merchant guild since it was in the middle, but it was still within sight of the other two as well.

The public bath was placed next to the inn, connected by stone pathways for ambiance. This area should be far from the high traffic areas, so it was closer to the farms instead. Even with sound insulation, Finn’s mind wanted a certain peaceful ambiance around his bathhouse.

The Communication Center was placed next to the [Delivery Room], and then he placed a little plaza between, allowing this area to be focused on logistics.

For the [Outer Road], he was thinking of holding a bidding war between towns in the future. While he was biased with Lotus Town, he also…needed a lot of money.

…

The construction began, and people had long been woken up just by the expansion. When the monsters were pushed back in front of people’s eyes, how could they not react?!

The barrier was so useful that there was always someone fighting there at all times, even if the number varied from time to time, so a lot of people saw the monsters they had been fighting suddenly pushed back by an invisible force—so far away, too!

They were noisy, and this alerted pretty much everyone else.

Now, they could witness three buildings appear out of nowhere!

At this time, there was always at least one elder from the adventurer team and someone with a decent rank from the mercenary team here. They said it would be to monitor construction, but for what only they knew.

Everyone could tell they were widening horizontally, though…

Anyway, they were among the gaping people staring at the buildings being constructed from the ground up.

Could this place be any more miraculous?
