Chapter 135 – Break after destruction.
"Okay. Move these two boxes to the main room." – said Phantasia to the twin doll maidens with bunny ears.
"You. Could you please unload the box with minerals to the storage room?" – asked Phantasia to the human type doll maiden.
The doll maiden just tiled its head in the response and picked up and giant box before then going into the building.
"…."
(Huh…. Honestly, it would be nice if they had some voices or something…. I guess I will need to think about it.)
After my first attack in the Berior kingdom, I had already managed to spread the news far and wide about the Doctor presence in the kingdom.
After the first attack had happened, I went and visited the first princess thanks to her fallowers who I "Asked" to point in the directions where she was.
After feeding her informations that was real, but then providing her with fake evidence, I decided to go to the second territory that was part of her faction.
The second territory I targeted wasn't really anything extremely important or anything like that. If anything, it was very not important to the point me targeting that place did not made any sense.
Even for players, this location is like a second location to go after leaving the starting area and not only that, but this is one of 4 locations you can go to after leaving the starting area.
So, truth to be told, targeting that place was an extremely shitty plan no matter how people will look at it. People will realize that attacking that place wasn't a good idea and I could have instead attacked the starting zone and mess it up, just how I did previous. People will get suspicious and wonder "Why".
But some people will know why that territory was attacked. Because the first princess is being targeted by either first prince or the second prince who are the traitors to the nation and are colluding with the terrorist organization that owns the terrorist the Doctor who had ruined the Agion kingdom.
However, obviously this isn't the real story, but thanks to the evidence and the situation, it will become the truth to the first princess faction and sooner or later, that truth will leak out, resulting his chaos and mistrust among the first prince and the second prince factions.
So, right now its better idea to step back and relax, while having the chaos play itself.
In meantime, I will open up my business once again and also hunt, while also experimenting. Pretty much doing the same things I did in Wolf city.
However, the current location where I'm is quiet high level.
My current level is 345 and the problem is quite obvious.
The number of the players with level 300 and above are not many AND there is also the fact that after reaching level 300, it took me a LOT of time to level up even once.
Killing low level NPCs and players does…. Well, it doesn't give a lot of EXP, but I also gain EXP from destroying settlements as well as titles.
With my current power, I could be maybe consider a level 400 player?
I could go to the WAY higher and harder leveling hunting grounds, but I need fame as the Phantasia and make sure my face is visible somewhat.
The hunting grounds where I'm currently at is for the players that are usually between level 300 and above, however again, not many players with level 300.
But still, I will make my presence known, since I will definitely encounter players here that will babble about me since I'm famous.
And that is another reason why I need to be here.
What if by any chance, some very high level player or some cocky idiots would go to the settlements that had very high level monsters in it? And they would see me there?
They would straight up wonder how the hell production class user like me got here and is able to stay there before them?
And biggest question: Why? Why I was there?
That would give me too much attention or suspicions, so its better to just play it safe.
So, it's better to hunt here and even stay for bit longer.
The same was with the Wolf city. I reached the max level I could possibly get from there, but I decided to stay for bit longer for a small cover and all.
And honestly, no harm will be done, since even if I don't hunt, I can still do my experiments in peace.
Anyway, as before I had bought a property for myself, since I'm still filthy rich and even got bit richer after plundering those settlements I had attacked and stuff.
I also started the renovation work as well as modifications for my new house in order to install new underground floors as well as adding workshop to the building.
I hired multiple workers to speed up the whole process, it obviously costed a bit of money, but it was worth it.
And while my base was getting prepared, I went out to hunt a bit and see what kind of monsters that could be hunted here.
And interesting enough, there were quiet few monsters that offered up quiet a lot of interesting materials, especially for the alchemy as well as mana related stuff.
The hunting grounds around the Hawk city have pretty much similar if not exactly the same as the Wolf city, with the whole mountains and forest thing.
But I'm not complaining or anything.
If anything, I had run into some players already and some of them seems to have recognized me or just found me weird, since I was wearing a mask while walking through the city.
The reason for the mask is because people are often bothered by the undead appearance and could get scared, since there are zombie and skeleton mindless monsters and I'm literally a zombie.
Still, either way, I will get found out sooner or later and I'm in no rush and stuff. Its better if I set up my shop and maybe stock up on items and stuff.
I should also definitely focus on the items with the level 300 or around restrictions, since the new players that would get here would definitely like a new equipment.
And considering that there are not many players here, I won't have a horde of the costumers each day and can easily stock up.
So, I can take it easy and relax.
Beside looking…. Oh right. Speaking of looking around.
I found my wanted posters in the city. Well, to be more specific, the "Doctor" wanted posters.
I heard the news and stuff about all factions now having a quest to hunt me down and stuff to receive the rewards from their faction as well as the kingdom itself.
Pretty much, people are once again getting greedy to hunt me down while straight up not realizing I'm hiding among them right now and wearing a mask of the well-known craftsman called Phantasia.
And I'm also making sure to destroy a possible leads directly to Phantasia or just create some fake leads to confuse them, like the letters the first princess have gotten from the hidden wall I had poorly made that looked like it was accidently damaged, hinting that the wall was fake.
So right now, I'm safe, but I should keep my ears open for any rumors and stuff, since it may force me to appear bit earlier than planned to cause some chaos, fully depending on the circumstances.
But for now, peace and easy.
After sometime had passed, my new shop slash home had been fully made and prepared.
Like before, the shop is divided into multiple areas like the shop part, crafting room, the storage room one and storage room two.
And for somebody wondering, the storage room is really just a place for my shady experiments.
So, now I have a proper and legal base once again, but obviously thing is that I cannot open up the shop yet since for very obvious reason.
I'm not ready and by not ready I mean that I don't have stuff to sell yet and have to make them.
So, I just went around hunting monsters and gathering up materials, while also buying the other materials from the merchants such as the ingots.
In between…Well, nothing really happened and thanks to that I was able to easily stock up on the monsters materials as well as the ingots before I finally got to the work.
I mostly hunted monsters around level 300, since I didn't wanted to create too strong equipment that would force people to not being able to wield them because of the low level and stuff. But even so, I managed to create quiet few interesting pieces of equipment.
And pretty much, repeat.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Hunt. Make items. Hunt and make items. It maybe seem boring, but its beneficial for me, since my crafting related classes class skills will level up, giving me an ability to level up and grow my crafting classes even more.
And considering that my research classes like the [Nightmare Monster Toy] or the [Cyborg Modification] can be heavily influenced by my crafting classes, then its 100% worth it spending more time on crafting and getting even more crafting classes.
And besides, I'm the guy that makes everything for myself and stuff ever since I started playing, so it's not I will stop doing the crafting at all at some point, since it both benefit me and I like crafting very much.
So, with that said, still calm and relaxed.
The Doctor is temporarily out of the picture and the Phantasia is back in the game.
