Chereads / Ethereal Equilibrium : The Dungeon Masters & The Heroes / Chapter 22 - Unveiling Necrotic Foundations

Chapter 22 - Unveiling Necrotic Foundations

The next day after finished cleaning my self I hurried my self to have a meeting with Asmodeus in The Nexus, hurrying my way to the grand hall, arriving at the grand hall, Alpha greeted me and told me that Asmodeus is waiting for me, entering the room I greeted him

"Good day Asmodeus."

"Yes good day Valtho, lets talk about business right away before all the informalities."

"sure, how is the condition of the information guild and newspaper agency we run?"

"we have an increase of profit, from the information guild a total of 6 million gold and 100 world coin, it seems there is many people who have acquire world coin, some may be bought from the traveling merchant and the newspaper agency acquire 2 million gold, 1 million wood and stone."

"hmm how come we have rock and wood?"

"we use any kind of resource as the material as payment, of course it is with a ration 1 coin equal 100 resource like wood, rock, wood, and food."

"of course we can used rare resource as payment but less likely people use that."

I gave Asmodeus an item and ask him to only print objective news, as the first news agency so we have to use objective view as our foundation and the newspaper need to have a special mark, this magic circle can use to engrave special mark that cannot be replicate you can flow mana to the paper so you can check if this is our goods or not, to prevent someone from replicating it and if someone try to copy the paper the magic mark will activate and delete the writing.

"what about if they memorize the content?"

"don't worry they will need time to copy, even if they copy it the people already know the news so they are not relevant."

"how about the co-operation with the traveling merchant organization?"

"they ask 20 percent pure profit for the sell, of course they will now help with the information gathering, what do you think?"

I explain we can use the traveling merchant organization as a our eyes by asking specific info and we can sell this specific info or use it for ourselves and as payment we can give certain position on the news paper to become their advertisement place they can sell or use, of course they cannot interfere in the agency way of working.

"hmm so we can use their info gathering skill and sell certain news we ask for our information guild."

"yes, of course they will notice this but they will kept silent if the profit them, so we need to guard their interest as our own."

"Hahahah, you young man are terrifying, you use interest as a chain to bind someone, it is more crazy you are trying to tying an organization."

"it is just business Asmodeus, we are now having hard time to collect information, the technology is we have is already useless."

looking at me with a appreciative look and give me a nod of understanding. for the in the future the profit we acquire in the nexus realm will be separated from the profit we sell in the real world.

after dividing the profit between ourselves we will meet again after seven day from now on, we will meet on sunday and do a weekly meeting, if we can't come we will send a message through Alpha.

after we part ways, I decided to use one of the world store ticket.

***

after arriving I was greeted by the Merchant

"well good day sir, it seems you have a lot of money to spend."

"good day too, can you show the blueprint for special undead barrack, focus on flying unit and special unit?"

"certainly sir."

====

Gargoyle Den

Abomination Factory

Necromancer Hall

Ancient Tomb

Vampire Den

....

several of the building interest me like Dragon Boneyard, Altar of the Damned, and Necromancer Hall.

after further searching I decided a couple of unit barrack, I decided to ask for the description to the merchant.

he describe

Dragon Boneyard

this building is a unique barrack of the undead, it is filled by the bone of undead dragon. From this the owner can create a bone dragon, as a unique barrack it can use a hero token to summon special Hero unit.

Altar of the Damned

using this the user can register a certain hero to be revived as long the hero unit is not killed by a special item that destroy their record.

Necromancer hall

a undead barrack that can train soulbinder into necromancer the backbone of the undead, the necromancer are unit that help the undead race to turn the living corpse to undead soldiers.

Ancient Tomb

this barrack can create a special group of undead unit of the undead that are focus on guarding tomb of old ruler or prominent figure of the undead race.

seeing the description I decided to buy Altar of the Damned, Dragon Boneyard, and ancient tomb, though I want to buy the necromancer hall I do not see the effective use of it in the near conflict, even if I decided to not spare those who attack me I can't have the people to know I use their comrade corpse as my army, it will give opportunity to attack my reputation.

I start to notice this problem can be applied to Farian as well, but it is not too prominent because the corpse will be sacrifice and in return it will turn into a limited time summon unit.

"I will buy the Dragon boneyard, Altar of the damned, and Ancient Tomb as well a hero token with soul attribute. What is the total cost?"

"the 3 barrack will cost 37 coin and the total cost with the token it will amount to 42."

after the purchase I hurried back to my dungeon to star building and training the unit.
