The Metaverse World
Visit the Patih Suratimantra
In the game, there are many elite players who want to move to the District of Java Dwipa. As for a region like the Hartono Brother Village, core members were already established, so normal players would lose the opportunity to gain trust and be massively utilized. On the other hand, the Jawa Dwipa Subdistrict is a clean place and is a better place for them to show their abilities.
The dangerous part about recruiting talent is the possibility of spies infiltrating.
Heru Cokro was not afraid of them joining in and revealing things about his territory. Be it eastern region military workshops, military factories in the mountains, mines, or salt fields, all of them were considered forbidden territories and were carefully monitored, so ordinary players could not even enter them.
The higher-ups of Dwipa Javanese District will remain NPCs, even Atmajaya and Swarit only do certain jobs. They are not considered part of the management level of the region.
Therefore, the District of Java Dwipa has built a perfect system that is not easily infiltrated.
Heru Cokro brought a small aunt to see the Jawa Dwipa District Armory. When the guards opened the gates, they revealed an arsenal of weapons filled with neatly placed bows, swords, and armor, which made the members of the mercenary group Up The Iron feel a little dizzy.
“Yes God, Little Cokro. You're just wasting good stuff, so many dusty weapons and equipment. If players find out about this, they will definitely scold you.”
Heru Cokro shook his head. She couldn't argue with him because he was her little aunt.
The little aunt ordered the members to keep all the equipment and make a list to check with the officials of the Military Affairs Bureau. After they made sure everything was in order, they would put it in their storage bag. As for himself, he went to the elite area to pick out equipment. Heru Cokro told little auntie that he would give her a set for free, so she was obviously not going to let this opportunity go to waste.
Sri Isana Tunggawijaya only spent one day in the District of Java Dwipa. After that, a casual conversation with Maharani, he left with almost half of the armory to Jakarta.
Before Sri Isana Tunggawijaya left, she handed over the basic architectural blueprints to Heru Cokro. He had bought this for three thousand gold.
Heru Cokro gave the blueprint to scribe Manguri Rajaswa. He asked Manguri Rajaswa to give this blueprint to the Construction Division and urged them to build it immediately. Under the plan, they would build a Political Temple and a Military Temple next to Yai Semar Temple. As for the watchtower, they would build it in front of the Gate of Midshipmen, south of the trade road, and the river bank within the subdistrict would be its east and west sides.
The 26th of August. After two months of development, they finally completed the University of the Gods. Heru Cokro led a group of officials to attend the opening ceremony.
Compared to Heru Cokro's original design, Bahaudin Nur Salam advised him to place the Chess House the basic sub-district building in the university, and it became the fourth faculty of the University of the Gods.
Heru Cokro asserted during the opening ceremony that the motto of the University of the Gods is inclusivity and diversity. The University of the Gods in the future must produce many leaders and become a sacred place of learning.
After the inauguration ceremony, Bahaudin Nur Salam accompanied Heru Cokro to visit Patih Suratimantra.
After the persuasion of Kawis Guwa and Bahaudin Nur Salam, Patih Suratimantra finally agreed to settle at the University of the Gods. At the same time, he rejected the position of Dean of the Faculty of Economics.
Samadi Island is not connected to the outside. Thus, you can only ride a raft to reach the island. The raft gracefully drifted left and right. Through the clear water of the lake, one could see the fish swimming in it.
As drizzling rain falls from the sky, water droplets fall onto the foliage.
Patih Suratimantra is 80 years old. The Division of Culture and Education had arranged for two servants to serve by his side and take care of him. They helped him open a vegetable garden on the island to grow vegetables and fruits and raise poultry. For ducks and geese, the moon lake is the best living environment.
After Heru Cokro arrived at the beach, he looked around. The surroundings were graceful, but there were no carved poles, trees, or flowers. A series of short thatched houses were built in the middle of the island. In front of the houses was a row of fences that bound the area into a small courtyard. In the empty land there was a vegetable garden where various vegetables and fruits were grown, and some even sprouted. Next to the small courtyard was a bamboo forest. As the wind blew over it, the crisp sound of bamboo sounded in the air.
On the other side of the courtyard was a well, and beside it was a stone less than half a meter tall. It looks very shiny and smooth. The servants introduced it as a place that Patih Suratimantra would occupy to read.
Patih Suratimantra was wearing a grass robe, as he was fishing by the lake. Next to him, his little fishing net was empty. He hasn't gotten anything yet.
"Suratimantra, sir is here to see you." Bahaudin Nur Salam opened his mouth.
Patih Suratimantra did not react. He simply turned around and made a silent movement towards Bahaudin Nur Salam. He told her to keep quiet and not scare away the fish she was trying to catch. Bahaudin Nur Salam was helpless, and he could only stand beside his master and wait patiently.
The waiter was smart and took out a small stool for Heru Cokro to sit on.
They waited all morning. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, but Patih Suratimantra was still motionless. He didn't say anything. He only held his fishing rod all morning and did not even change his bait.
Heru Cokro was helpless, because he knew that Patih Suratimantra was a stubborn person. So, he can only go, “Suratimantra, having come without telling you, Jendra will now go. I'll come again next time.”
Just as Heru Cokro was about to leave, Patih Suratimantra suddenly opened his mouth, "Your Majesty, you have killed Jaka Slewah during the Father's Takon Dynasty, haven't you?"
Heru Cokro was astonished, but he calmly said, "Suratimantra, why are you saying such a thing?"
“When you return, I see your guards riding war horses. Surprisingly, your bodyguard wasn't by your side during the interception. Thus, there is only one explanation, that they were sent to intercept Jaka Slewah.” Patih Suratimantra's analytical skills are truly frightening.
Since he knew it, Heru Cokro had to tell the truth, “True, the guards killed Jaka Slewah, and his head was sent to Prabu Wrehadrata. If therefore, Suratimantra wants to become a hermit and confine himself, I have nothing to say." From then on, Heru Cokro gave up on asking Patih Suratimantra to come out and help him. He was a ruler and a Regent of Gresik. He will do something based on his principles, and he will not change because of one person.
"Haa~aah!" Patih Suratimantra let out a long sigh.
