The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 26 - Dungeon
"W-what did you say? Creating Dungeons?"
Elin answered without laughing. He explained all his plans in detail. Elin asked me to share the authority of the order against the goblins. Without a second thought I shared it with Elin.
We both decided to always be in the party. Thus, Elin would obtain a portion of the EXP produced by the goblins.
We tested how many goblins I could call after obtaining the Buff Mana Zone from Elin. Not only that, I can also use Elin's Mana which has reached 80 thousand!
As a result, I can call 100 goblins every hour. Thanks to the Mana Zone, Mana regeneration increased by 2x. If coupled with Elin's Mana regeneration, then my total regeneration ability increased by 5x.
Knowing the result was very satisfying, the two of us continued to make calls throughout the day.
In the end, the 2000 Normal-level goblins had been under the control of both of us. Well, even though they still use basic equipment.
The first step we took after the test was to move.
Elin told me that this skill I have must be targeted, so I have to hide somewhere else.
In the meantime, Elin will be spreading false information about me. 'The 'Tamer monster has been captured by the Inquisitor of the Celestine Holy Kingdom.'
That's about a forgery about my disappearance.
I am now in the Alpa Mountains. The entrance is quite difficult with a narrow lane and also very dark. Not to mention the monsters that roam here.
The second step was to hand out equipment and work on the 2000 idle goblins inside this small cave.
Elin had bought thousands of mining equipment, blacksmiths, artisans and low-level farms in the city and brought them to me.
Right now I feel like I'm working on an amazing partnership with Elin. Yes, although most of the work was completed by him.
After discussing with Elin and the 2 Guardian Goblins, we decided to split up their work all.
First is the farmer. Even though I can obtain meat by hunting monsters, that way will start to be ineffective as the goblin population I lead gets bigger. So Elin asked me to focus on agriculture.
Although it sounds strange, I assigned at least 1000 goblins to plant grasses that could live in the darkness of the cave. These wild rumputans will later produce grains that are worth eating.
The second is the farm. I assigned 150 goblins to raise chickens, goats and cows in the cave. The most difficult process was to bring the animals to this place. Yes, the hope with the livestock will provide a variety of food for the goblins.
The third was the guard. 200 Normal-level goblins I was assigned to stand guard along the way to the inside of this secret base. They were also accompanied by the remains of the Good-level goblins I had previously summoned.
The fourth is a miner. 500 goblins I assigned to mine this cave. Some are in charge of cleaning the soil and rocks from the mine.
The last one is the craftsman. Their number was only 150 goblins at the moment, but it would soon grow. They are tasked with processing mining and agriculture into finished goods such as equipment and food and housing construction.
Everything went smoothly after giving them the right equipment. Elin mentions that he spent at least 200 gold coins to buy thousands of equipment that will be used later.
"Don't think that this equipment is free huh! I'll cut it off from your income!" Sardonic Elin replied when I asked about it.
"In addition, after the farming and mining have gone well, we no longer need to buy equipment or food for them." Elin.
After continuing the discussion, we finally decided to call up to 10 thousand goblins first. The thing to consider is food. If they did not eat then they would starve and die, losing the individual skills they had honed all along.
After reaching that number, Elin asked me to use the sigil on all the goblins. Given which is not the problem for me now, sigil giving goes smoothly.
The new thing I know is that Elin has the real name Elina Septiani. True, he is a 21-year-old Indonesian who now lives in Jakarta. But that's a story for another time.
My summoning techniques and contractors have improved over the past 2 weeks. The summoning technique that had reached the Intermediate Level 1 level gave me a new skill.
【Demon Summoning】
Mana Consumption: 50,000
Effect: Calling demons at random from the underworld. The summoned demon is not bound by any contract with the summoner so that it can cause damage.
Seeing that skill to be honest I was tempted to try it. But Elin strictly forbade it. He was convinced that this demon summoning was quite dangerous because it was not bound by a contract like these goblins. In other words, the summoned devil will not obey my words.
Other than the Summoning technique, my Contractor Technique has also risen to Intermediate Level 1. This very rapid level increase was caused by the continuous mass summoning I made as well as the giving of sigil to 10 thousand goblins. It would be strange if my skills did not level up.
The new skills I gained from the Contractors are.
【Sigil Medium】
Mana Consumption: 30,000
Effect: Giving a medium-sized sigil to a call monster. Increase the entire growth state of monsters by 2. Unable to be used to monsters with Epic level up.
Restrictions: Can only be used 1 time to the same monster.
【Evolve】
Mana Consumption: 100,000
Effect: Doing evolution to a call monster. Increase the level of monster evolution by 1 level.
Restrictions: Can only be used to Epic level monsters and above. After that, the new monster level would return to Normal.
It cannot be used on monsters that are already at the peak of the evolution of their species.
The consumption of which all the skills I have is insane. But its potential is limitless.
I immediately told Elin about both of my new skills. Although it looks very strong to me, but Elin just replied expressionlessly.
"Now is not the time to waste that much mana for the sake of a thin increase."
It is true, we were too preoccupied with the Dungeon management we had created. Division of work, leader of each team and so on.
Since my brain can't be expected, then Elin takes care of all that. Although it looks heavy, he seems happy with his current situation.
However, even though the construction of the Dungeon went very smoothly and secretly, a new problem arose.
"Eric, I've run out of money."
Yes, we are both very wasteful in buying various equipment needs and others whereas Dungeons have yet to make any money.
