Chereads / Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army / Chapter 300 - Open for business

Chapter 300 - Open for business

With the deal finalized, Yunan had to pay 10% of the collected mana to Tartarus and she will provide both a safe no fighting zone and an announcement for the trade post to anyone who reached the 80th floor, Hephaestus was invited to attend the planning and design meetings for the sky fortress and the battle robots, two notions that grabbed the man's attention almost immediately. If it wasn't for the fact that the materials would be provided overtime by Yunan and co, he would have stole the idea of the project and started working on it.

3 days before the end of the month, the trading post named lucky's trading, was set up in place, the safe zone initiated and the receptionist were in position, the announcement rang at dawn and every adventurers that passed by the 80th floor inside or outside the dungeon heard it. "Announcement, an explorer has successfully created a trading outpost on the 80th floor, please be advised that the trading outpost is ready to start business and has a 1km radius safe zone, the outpost is situated near the staircase leading to the next or the previous floors. Announcement … " the announcement rang three times making the factions turn upside down trying to figure out the hows and whats of the situation.

The trading post in itself wasn't a problem, the problem was that it was announced, had a safe zone attached to it and came out of nowhere, there should have been some chatter within the intelligence community if something this big was being prepared, worst of all, who ever made that trading post was able to stay in the shadows long enough to work unhindered, gain a safe zone and even knew how to announce it using the Dungeon itself, that last bit alone would be worth a few factions.

Worst of it all, they were able to stay anonymous, and survive long enough in the 80s without a faction, determine the heavy need for a safe trading location, and make the damnable thing without being spotted or noticed at all. It infuriating for many of the factions having to send men there to check on the place, and know about it, and worst of all unless they could negate the safe zone, they can never take over or destroy the place, meaning even if the factions all chose to not use the trading post, the loose adventurers would use it, the individual adventurers would be using it too because most factions did not have a trade system that can change the carcasses of monsters with herbs or minerals, and vice versa, trading items was a much better prospect than selling them to the faction and wait in line to buy a needed material.

What was more infuriating for the far seers was that they will be watching this little outpost grow safely into a rivaling faction, even if they banned their members from trading there, thanks to the safe zone, this can not be enforced, they had nothing they could do about it, and that sense of helplessness was worse than death to these factions who had the ability to do as they please. Meanwhile Yunan and Leader were sitting in the control room of the private dimension watching how would the events unfold.

It did not take longer than 10 minutes before the first person came by asking questions, within the first 30 minutes over 100 items were traded successfully, the inquisitive scouts had already returned with the information required, including the explosive news about the availability of the two most exclusive items requested on the planet, not to mention the ease of use and revolutionary interface, the place was assumed to be using so much mana that it was farming living monsters, the information about the safe zone needing to empty out the mana from all clients in order to enforce the no fighting was accepted almost immediately, to inhibit aggression one had to inject their own mana into the body, that would fail if one had any mana in their core.

It was a very problematic for the factions when the rates of the trading post were brought back, any adventurer could afford the meager sum of money that the post asked for in return for using its services, it was like this new place was working on quantity not quality, and the response to the rules about abandoned items gave some Leader a very bad feeling. If any item can be dropped off and left there to be taken by the house, how many people are going to fall under this rule and lose their items, its was hard to know how long a hunt will take when one joined a faction, and the option to extend the deadline was not open yet, that makes it so much harder for adventurers to abandon their items because they can take a pause from a hunt, get their items and return within an hour or even less.

Order will be lost in many a faction, and many more will have to make scheduled hunts depending on the deadlines of their members, life was going to change to revolve around this place and in the near future, it was going to take a lot of from these factions to get to the bottom of this and change their routines to suit the way this trading post worked.

Yunan and Leader smiled at each other, although Yunan did not forsee how far the disturbances from this small stone would reach but Leader knew all too well, but she didn't want to tell him about it, he had to see for himself the extent of his own actions, her smile was coming from a place of pride and joy, her own pupil had grown up and was able to create waves on her level, what else could she do but smile at him with all her heart, this kid truly made her heart flutter to see what would come out next from gis sleeves.
