Chapter 108:108 Use Secret Realm Modification Scroll

Translator: 549690339

The people working at Safe House are quite professional and efficient.

As professionals, they didn’t even ask Dean McKenzie what he needed the building materials and tools for.

In less than an hour, they delivered to Dean three full sets of the most common building tools on the market.

As well as the most commonly used construction materials.

Of course, Dean had to pay for all the items.

But since he only bought basic materials and tools, everything was relatively cheap, costing only 1 gold coin.

After the goods arrived, Dean immediately opened the Gate of Bone, preparing to call Doggy Two and the others out to move the stuff.

But as Dean opened the door, he saw Doggy Two playing with Old Eight!

Yeah, playing with Old Eight.

The serious kind.

In Doggy Two’s hands, Old Eight had turned into a skeleton jigsaw, with bones from all over his body basically dismantled.

When Dean opened the door, Doggy Two was playing with Old Eight’s skull.

The sudden door opening startled Doggy Two, who hastily threw away Old Eight’s skull and started staring at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

He looked innocent.

Poor Old Eight’s scattered skeletal body trembled in anger.

His discarded skull was opening and closing its mouth furiously. Although it couldn’t make any sound, Dean could still tell that Old Eight was cursing Doggy Two.

Probably in rather coarse language.

Despite that, Dean noted that Old Eight seemed in good spirits.

Even though his bones had been nearly dismantled, he still felt full of life.

This gave Dean a better understanding of the vitality of these skeletons under his command.

“It seems that as long as their Soul Flame remains undamaged, there’s not much to worry about. Of course, it could also be due to Doggy Two’s skillful hands.

Doggy Two, stop staring and quickly assemble Old Eight back together!”

After Dean spoke up, Doggy Two started reassembling the scattered bones of Old Eight. Within five minutes, a completely renewed Old Eight stood up again.

As soon as Old Eight was assembled, it activated the skill [Strong Stealth] and hid in Dean’s shadow, refusing to come out.

Obviously, he was traumatized by Doggy Two.

Being their owner, Dean was all smiles watching these two interact.

Despite instructing Doggy Two to assemble Old Eight, he didn’t scold Doggy Two for bullying Old Eight.

Seeing Old Eight hiding, he had no intention of forcing Old Eight out.

As for his Little skeletons, as long as they obeyed, Dean was pretty lax on other matters.

After all, they didn’t have to go to school or work, no need for him to instill any kind of life values or beliefs in them.

After the drama, Dean threw himself into his architect’s work.

While having Doggy Two and the team bring in the building tools and materials, he was pondering on what he wanted to build for practice.

“Though building seems simple, I’ve never done it before, so I should start with a simple structure.

Let’s start with a house.”

With that said, Dean got to work.

Following the transcribed instructions, he began to build the house.

The instructions were very detailed, and Dean understood them well, so he remembered all the steps and procedures.

However, when Dean actually started the building process.

It was a total mess!

Despite thinking he had mastered the supposedly simple tasks, Dean’s work was a disaster.

With no other option, Dean had to lower his standards.

Building a house, changed to building a kitchen.

Then it switched to building a toilet.

In the end, Dean could only attempt to build a wall.

This time, Dean managed to build the wall, but despite being just three-meters tall, it was slanted 45 degrees. And when Dean leaned on it slightly, the wall collapsed.

This frustrated Dean to no end.

“I didn’t cross over to become a construction worker.

If I wanted to be a construction worker, why would I bother crossing over? I could just find a job at a construction site back home!

Why do I have to build my own house? Can’t I just buy one?

If I can’t afford one, there are plenty of enemy houses in the game’s map. It’d be easier to loot one and live there!”

Well, comfort in self-deception never fades.

Before long, Dean already convinced himself.

Throwing down his construction tools, Dean went on to study the [Secret Realm Crystal] and [Secret Realm Modification Scroll] he had obtained from clearing the dungeon.

However, the tools Dean abandoned weren’t idled.

Just as Dean left, a skeleton approached, its eyes glowing with a ‘click-click’ sound. It picked up the abandoned tools along with the [Architecture Basics] (1) from the ground, and began to study them.

On the other side, Dean opened the [Secret Realm Modification Scroll],

As the scroll was unrolled, a system prompt flashed before Dean’s eyes.

[You have opened the [Secret Realm Modification Scroll], please choose the modification direction.

Environment, Rules!]

“Environment? Rules?”

Staring at the two modification options that popped up, Dean was a bit startled.

As he focused on them, more detailed information about these two options surfaced.

The environment refers to the geographical landscape of the Secret Realm. Dean could expand the size of the realm, introducing mountains, seas, etc.

And compared to the environment, rules could be more terrifying.

If he were to alter the rules, Dean McKenzie could add a BUFF to the Land of Bone.

Be it accelerating recovery, increasing skill proficiency gain, or even altering time flow of Land of Bone and the outside world – all are achievable.

Seeing this made Dean’s eyes sparkle.

He admitted, he was moved.

And then, his excitement plummeted.

Because the minimum requirement for altering the rules was 10 Secret Realm Crystals, and he only had one.

Hence, altering the rules was out of the question. Dean could only tum his attention to modifying his surroundings.

But what improvements could Dean make to the surroundings?

From the start, Dean had already decided his direction for enhancement.

He would add a water source in the Secret Realm.

But when Dean attempted this enhancement, he realized that his single Secret Realm Crystal could only achieve so much.

At most, he could only add a small Spring Eye.

With no other options, Dean activated the small Spring Eye.

Upon use of the scroll, a small Spring Eye appeared at the location designated by Dean. The eye had a diameter of about five centimeters and was bordered by green stones.

As soon as it appeared, clear spring water began gushing forth unceasingly from within the eye.

Dean frowned at the small spring eye, questioning who would find such a tiny spring to be of any use.

Who exactly could use it?

At this moment, a system notification refreshed.

[You have used a [Secret Realm Modification Scroll], you have consumed one Secret Realm Crystal, and your Land of Bone has gained a[Spring Eye](Level 1)!]

[Your Secret Realm territory has gained a[Spring Eye](Level 1), and Spirit has obtained the trait [Level 1 Mana Recovery]!]

Upon the refresh of these two system notifications,

Dean discovered a new BUFF in his attribute panel – [Level 1 Mana Recovery], which allowed him to recover 1 Mana point every five minutes.

This small amount of Mana recovery was better than nothing at all for Dean at the moment.

For one, he had over three thousand Mana points to begin with.

Secondly, the natural regeneration rate for Mana was roughly about one-twentieth of one’s total Spirit power.

Given Dean’s current Spiritual Power, he could recover 10 points per minute.

This BUFF was only one of the additional effects from the spring eye,

and even that was the lowest of the additional effects on offer.

But when Dean focused on the small spring eye, which he had initially scoffed at, his eyes narrowed.

Name: Pure Spring Eye

Level: 1

Description: Able to continuously generate Pure Spring Water.

Name: Pure Spring Water

Level: 1

Description: Consumption of this water can slowly heal injuries and restore Mana.

(The healing effect is valid for those with a Physique value below 5. Consuming too ml of spring water can restore 60 Mana points per minute)

Isn’t this spring water the same Pure Spring Water that Dean McKenzie had drunk to excess at the Rotting Corpse Plain?

Dean was surprised that one day, his home could produce this type of spring water unceasingly.

Wait, am I able to sell this spring water?

Although its effects aren’t as good as the small blue bottle, it should still have some value.

Selling 200 ml for a silver coin shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Upon thinking of this, Dean’s way of looking at the spring eye changed. What it was producing was no longer water, but a continuous flow of money.

Although Dean had plenty of gold coins – 180 to be exact, after experiencing a dungeon level – who would complain about having too much money?

Especially Dean, who needed money to activate his Talent, he would never say no to more money.

As such, Dean began to research the spring eye more eagerly.

He studied the output of the spring eye, whether the water’s effects could be preserved after leaving the spring eye,

along with the most crucial question: how long this spring eye could sustain Dean’s [Meditative State].

Dean soon found his answers.

The output of the Spring Eye was not large, with only about 500 ml per minute.

Once the spring water left the spring eye, its effects would start to dissipate, but if conserved well, it can be preserved for a long period of time.

This thrilled Dean as this meant the realization of monetizing the spring water was possible.

500 ml per minute equates to 720,000 ml over 24 hours.

If he really was able to sell 200 ml for a silver coin,

Dean could earn a net profit of 36 gold coins every day without lifting a finger.

Furthermore, there was Dean’s [Meditation Skill – Perception State].

Once the spring eye emerged, Dean’s [Perception State] automatically activated.

Due to Dean’s full Mana state, he didn’t consume any spring water. He specifically tried conserving the water for an hour to give it a test.

Finally, he concluded that about an hour of conserved water was enough to sustain twenty minutes of Dean’s full-powered Perception State.

It could restore 24,000 of Dean’s Mana.

This was five to six thousand more Mana than what Dean would get from direct drinking.

This practically allowed Dean to use his Mana freely.

However, Dean did feel some pain in his heart at the thought of every minute spent in this state equating to wasting ten silver coins worth of Pure Spring Water..
