The First Legendary Beast Master - Chapter 1334 Dorms Done
Chapter 1334 Dorms Done
Karl smiled as the group started to get excited, and Leo pressed his nose against the stack of books.
{Skill Learned} [Plant Growth]
{Skill Learned} [Advanced Food Creation]
{Skill Learned} [Create Water]
{Skill Learned} [Mend Object]
Those were all spells taught to the clerics, including the basic repair spell that Tessa and Lotus had used dozens of times to repair their clothing and equipment in the past.
Now, Karl usually just made new things to replace the broken ones, but that hadn’t always been an option, and Mend Object, or the advanced versions that the clerics had, was a lifesaver.
Karl continued to add runes to the rooms as Rae, Remi and Cara shaped the buildings. Then, Opal, Tian and the others formed the interiors.
Opal made them a simple workspace, where they could add effects and decor to the rooms.
“Don’t spend too much time per room. We’ve got thousands to do, so just make a dozen or so templates, and then you can apply them to every residential floor.” Karl warned.
Opal mentally grumbled. Twelve room designs for a whole tower was no fun. But the Karl was right about making thousands of individual ones taking far too long.
Already, Sister Rae was three buildings ahead of them on the construction, and she was getting faster as she practiced.
{These are the newbie buildings} Tian explained so that the dragons would understand what they needed in the rooms.
“Alright, we will save the elaborate additions for the teachers and senior students. Wait, are these apartments or dorms? Why does that pattern have a kitchen?” Bertie asked.
{That one’s for the Alchemists.} Tian explained proudly.
If they weren’t Alchemists when they arrived, they soon could be, with a fully stocked lab space in their room.
Or, it could just go to a foodie like Hawk, who would make fancier dishes than what the cafeteria offered. He did recall the bird saying that getting raw ingredients and cooking for yourself was an option before.
But the units didn’t usually have a full kitchen. At most, a hot plate and a small fridge.
That was already pushing the culinary limits of most of the students, and when there was professionally made food available downstairs, it wasn’t a big deal that the dorms didn’t have much for cooking facilities.
The new layout was sure to cause some staffing issues, though. Every residential building had a cafeteria or restaurant at the bottom of it, which spread the cooking staff over many new locations, and Karl had no idea if they had enough staff for that.
[Should we add staff to the illusions, now that the dragons are adding spells to create food?] Opal asked.
[That’s not a bad idea. A scary lunch lady is necessary to every cafeteria.] Thor agreed.
Karl chuckled at his insistence. If he saw that old lunch lady now, she wouldn’t be nearly as scary as when he was a baby bird that didn’t know whether he could take extra plates of raw meat.
But he also had the Mystic Cooking skill, so they could make a really good lunch lady.
The dragons didn’t realize what was going on until Karl started to form the spells for the kitchen.
“What are you doing?” Ike asked as Karl formed the runes to add the chefs to the building.
“I’m helping them sort out staffing. We have the Mystic Cooking skill available to many of our staff members in Zilaz, so I thought that adding some constructs who could use it here in the kitchens of the Academy would benefit everyone.
The meals that they make can add bonuses to the one who eats them, so they should be more effective at training students than just letting them go by trial and error.
The Golden Dragon Nation is lagging behind both in skills and resources, so I intend to give them a hand up, and allow them to at least compete to the best of their abilities on the continent.
That way, they shouldn’t be left behind or invaded as the mana level starts to increase.
They’re getting more Totems on this continent now, and that suggests that they will start having mythic leaders soon, similar to the Dragon Isles.
But this continent isn’t at all prepared for that change in power levels. Karl explained.
“That’s a lot of words for ‘I’m helping my friends power level’ isn’t it?” Ike asked.
“No, we’ve got other buildings in the complex for that. This one is just dinner.”
The blue dragon smirked at Karl’s flippant answer, but he wasn’t lying. Blue dragons always knew when someone lied to them.
But the process wasn’t destined to be as horrible as he had expected. Once the first building of a design was up, they directly duplicated it for the adjoining buildings, with identical rooms and basic enchantments in each.
The amount of mana involved was immense, and the buildings were recreated from the ground up, with runes engraved in every room as it was constructed, then protective spells layered over the entire structure.
The dorms for the teachers were nearly the same in design, except that Rae made them into proper apartments, with separate bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a suspicious number of hard points to hang training equipment from. What she thought that the teachers were going to be training for in their rooms was a mystery, but when Karl asked, Rae was adamant that any fewer would
lead to a shortage.
Overall, the whole complex turned out rather well, Karl thought. He still had hundreds of runic enhancements to make, but the kitchens had a cook that could make their food products, the dorms had furniture, the connecting hallways had security traps, and the building itself was protected by an Eternal Lightning barrier, so that nothing under the Mythic Rank was likely to cause serious property damage in the future.
All that was left were the smaller details, and then bringing everyone out of the bunkers to retrieve their personal belongings from the lost and found piles.
