The new addition to the territory was met with confusion at first, the Monster Fighting Facility was a two-story building from the outside, but after entering it the players would be surprised to find that it was much larger inside compared to the outside look. That was of course because of the spatial array that it had, similarly to it, the "Merchants Guild" and the "Adventurers Guild" both had the spatial array installed as well.
Reign and the other quickly thought of what they should build next, each of them currently had over 8 000 S Coins and with that kind of money, they would be able to build all of the three buildings. The other three buildings were each about 12 000 S Coins and in total it would cost them 36 000 S Coins, leaving each of them with 2 000 S Coins in their pockets.
They weren't worried that the Auction House would negatively affect the merchant guild either, contrary to the auction house where players could put any price for the item they were selling the merchant guild would always offer players a fair price when it came to buying or selling items.
The four new buildings being created came as a mild shock to the players, not only could they now trade items with nearby areas that had auction houses as well, but they could spar without holding back since there was no fear of getting seriously injured, they could fight monsters and even die without repercussion, but they could now also try and tame beasts safely.
A lot of players actually wanted to have tamed beasts similar to Beast, some of them even succeeded but only some. Even then, the players mostly had normal beasts that could at best fight against 2 monsters at the same time. The biggest difference with the Monster Stables was the fact that there were not only a large number of beasts there but that most of them were docile and wouldn't even try to attack the players.
There had already been some fatalities amongst players that overestimated themselves and tried to tame a beast by themselves, some of the beasts would even feint weakness before suddenly lunging at the players at tearing them apart.
Next to that, since Reign had put on the Savage Ring he had finally broken through 100 points in agility and gained another skill. He quickly put a point in his strength in order for that stat to get to 100 as well. As expected, since all three of the stats had previously given him a skill after breaking through the first threshold, he was able to get one again from all of them.
[ Electric Current ] – Passive skill
Description: Thanks to the player's constant use of lightning his muscles have changed and gained an incredible resistance to being shocked. His body will naturally create a current inside of the body which will allow for his movement and reflex speed to improve by 10%.
[ Hardened Muscles ] – Passive skill
Description: Thanks to the constant fighting and training the player's muscles have become stronger and stronger. This skill will improve the total strength of the player and give a 10% bonus to his existing strength and attack power
The two skills were incredible, one would improve his reflexes and movement speed by 10% while the other would give him more strength. A 10% boost might not sound great, but one thing that should be noted is that both skills were passive ones and wouldn't use any mana from the user. Reign could already feel his muscles changing a bit, the muscles had actually shrunk by a small margin and they became tougher and stronger while he was able to feel the electric current that was stimulating his body from the inside.
Compared to the mana organ upgrade the two skills didn't give him an obvious improvement, but they were passive skills that were hard to come by, if Reign hadn't received the mana organ upgrade he would have still managed to upgrade it later along the line, but who knows whether or not he would have ever gotten the two passive skills.
The first thing that the party did after creating all the buildings was to get a quick tour. The training facility was the first, Shadow and Reign had a quick spar and it was just as promised, none of them was truly in danger during the fight. Even when Reign stabbed Shadow through the stomach the latter barely bled and the wound was soon closed.
This was incredible news since they could now train here with the trainees and amongst themselves, the training facility had the option for players to book a private training arena which would be very helpful to them.
The Auction House was the next one, the building was incredible and currently, it overshadowed even Reign's private building in the center of the underground city. Being 30 meters tall the building looked like something straight out of the Victorian era of the UK. The Gothic-styled building had large stained glass windows, multiple pointed arches, a couple of statues, and more.
Just looking at it from the outside was enough to give an impression of wealth and power but when stepping inside the building it was even more magnificent. There was no need to hire any players to take care of the auction house as the staff members had already appeared together with the building. The staff members were not all human, there were human-like beings with scales, horns, tails, and more while some other staff members looked completely different compared to humans. There were weird creatures that were seemingly made out of stone standing at multiple locations in the building, they were actually the guards of the auction house and would make sure that not player could create any trouble in it.
Small furry creatures that looked like something straight out of popular animes like Pokemon, Digimon, and such could be seen on the counters together with the human-like staff members. The small creatures didn't talk and were seemingly busy with other things.
A floating ball similar to the ones that Reign and the others had seen during the demonic invasion suddenly floated over towards them, and the ball stopped in front of them before changing. Out of the ball legs and arms grew out before a beautiful face was shown, the lady that appeared was called Eleis and she was the current branch chief of the auction house. She also wasn't human but came from a race called the Oblis, the true body of the Oblis was the ball of flesh that Reign and the others had seen but they had exceptional shape-shifting powers and could turn into any race at will.
Upon talking a bit with Eleis Reign and the others were able to find out that not only would players be able to trade with other auction houses from the nearby areas, but the auction house would also host small auctions every week, while once a month there would be a larger scaled auction with more valuable items. All of the items came from the main branch of the auction house which was a member of the Alliance and it had a plethora of items.
The Monster Stables was the next location. Honestly, there was nothing that interesting for Reign and the others here as all of the beasts found inside the stables were below Beast's tamed beasts and wouldn't be of any help to them. The stables only had one floor but there were 5 areas, the first and largest area held monsters ranging from level 1 to 10. The next area held monsters from level 10 to 20 and so on.
Of course, there was a chance for the stable to get more uncommon and rare beasts but those would be more challenging to tame course. The players also had an option of marking a beast and putting it into a solitary room for a couple of days, the option cost some S Coins but the player would be the only one that could enter the room and try to tame the beast for the duration they paid for.
The final building was, of course, the Monster Fighting Facility, the monsters that one would face could be chosen but the strongest monster was always an elite or a variant, there were no mini-bosses or boss-ranked monsters that could be fought as of right now. Of course for most players that was enough as an elite was already more powerful than most of them and they would usually require two or more people in order to be dealt with.
The more the building was upgraded however the stronger monsters could be fought, for example, the first upgrade would allow the players to also fight monsters that had gone through the first evolution while adding mini-bosses and normal boss-ranked monsters when it came to monsters before the first evolution. Reign and the others tried it out but unfortunately for them, monsters that were of the elite rank simply weren't powerful enough to make them go all out anymore.
