Chapter 738: 300 Meters Underground

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Yuan heard the gesturing Master Hong Shen exclaim, “30 meters is too shallow. It has to be 300 meters. Plus, the s.p.a.ce has to be wide enough to be secure! It should be big and strong enough so that even Diamond feys can roll around there without problems.”

Master Hong Shen was already naturally untidy. He probably had not showered in days.

His beard was all matted together.

When Master Hong Shen spoke, several drops of foamy sputum flew up and stuck to his messy beard.

His excited hands grabbed Hu Quan’s pen and drew on the blueprint for the bas.e.m.e.nt.

When Hu Quan heard what Master Hong Shen said, he felt that his brain was exploding.

A fire surged within Hu Quan, and he slammed his pen down and said, “30 meters is enough. Does Young Master know that you want to dig 300 meters down? The soil 30 meters deep is already full of water vapor. One meter deeper, and the water would only be seeping out of the walls. Do you plan on building a water tank in the fey breeding room as well?

“It’s not impossible to build the bas.e.m.e.nt 300 meters underground, but its exterior will have to be reinforced with Gold Trickle Rock Metal. You might not be a Spirit Craftsman, but as a Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master, you should know how much Gold Trickle Rock Metal costs. If Trickle Rock Metal isn’t used to prevent the bas.e.m.e.nt from flooding, there’s no point in letting any Diamond fey roll around inside. Not even Gold earth-type feys’ elemental abilities will be able to sustain the bas.e.m.e.nt.

“Luckily, the supply of oxygen is an easy fix. Most feys that can produce oxygen will be able to provide enough oxygen to the bas.e.m.e.nt. But what about light? Even if you put in some windows, the light will never be able to reach past 200 meters.”

Master Hu Quan was a Cla.s.s 5 Spirit Craftsman, and drawing up blueprints was part of his job. He was also proud of his skill in this aspect.

Hu Quan always hated outsiders pointing and scribbling on his design when he was trying to draw.

When Hu Quan and Lin Yuan had been discussing the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake, Hu Quan found Lin Yuan’s opinions refres.h.i.+ng.

They had even given the design a new lease of life.

Moreover, when Hu Quan had been discussing the construction of Submerged Flood Dragon Lake with Lin Yuan, the latter’s suggestions were always accompanied by the provision of a large number of resources.

It was so much that Hu Quan would not need to carefully calculate the use of resources which could have affected the beauty of the design.

Hence, Hu Quan was more than willing to discuss the mansion’s construction with Lin Yuan.

However, Hu Quan found everything Master Hong Shen said to be unrealistic and unreasonable.

If Master Hong Shen had not claimed that Lin Yuan had approved the design, Hu Quan would not be sitting there and allowing Master Hong Shen to pick at his design.

When Master Hong Shen heard Hu Quan’s reb.u.t.tal, he did not seem to pick up on the tone of anger.

“When I talked about the bas.e.m.e.nt’s light problem with Young Master, he said that he would be able to solve it,” said Master Hong Shen nonchalantly.

Hu Quan felt that talking about the bas.e.m.e.nt with Master Hong Shen would get them nowhere. He stood up and said, “When Young Master returns, I’ll ask him about the bas.e.m.e.nt’s construction directly.”

This was when Hu Quan noticed Lin Yuan striding in.

Hu Quan quickly said, “Lin Yuan, you’re back! What are your plans for the bas.e.m.e.nt?”

Master Hong Shen turned to see Lin Yuan. His eyes lit up, and he said, “Young Master, I bought the forest. I noticed that the soil there is very fertile. I also discovered a nest of Tunnelling Earthworms. If the Tunnelling Earthworms are specially nurtured, they can evolve into Soil Decaying Earthworms.”

When Lin Yuan heard what Master Hong Shen said, he immediately knew why Master Hong Shen wanted to build the bas.e.m.e.nt 300 meters underground.

At a depth of 300 meters, the environment would appeal to the Tunnelling Earthworms and enable them to evolve into Soil Decaying Earthworms.

With a large number of Soil Decaying Earthworms, they would gain a lot of corrosive soil.

Lin Yuan had instructed Master Hong Shen to study the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls. Master Hong Shen and Genius had arrived at the same conclusion: a large amount of corrosive soil was needed for the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls to produce child ramets.

Otherwise, they would need to wait for the ramet to mature, and by then, the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearl mother plant would have sucked away all the nourishment.

As a result, the child ramet would die.

Lin Yuan nodded at Master Hong Shen and said, “You did well. I’ll leave the matter of nurturing the Tunnelling Earthworms to you.”

Next, Lin Yuan said to Hu Quan, “Uncle Hu, the bas.e.m.e.nt really has to be 300 meters deep because I’ll be opening a tunnel from there to the s.p.a.ce Tunnel that connects the mansion to the Divine Wood Federation.”

At first, Hu Quan did not understand what Lin Yuan was saying. It did not make sense for Lin Yuan to build the bas.e.m.e.nt 300 meters deep just to nurture the Soil Decaying Earthworms.

The corrosive soil that the Soil Decaying Earthworms produced was not worth much.

Even if a large amount was produced, it would not be worth the cost of building the bas.e.m.e.nt 300 meters deep.

But when Hu Quan heard Lin Yuan mention the s.p.a.ce Tunnel, he immediately realized Lin Yuan’s true intention.

With such a strategy, it was absolutely necessary to build the bas.e.m.e.nt 300 meters deep.

When Master Hong Shen heard what Lin Yuan said, shock flashed across his eyes.

It had not been long since Master Hong Shen had come to the mansion, and he did not even live in the mansion.

Although Master Hong Shen usually got along very well with the rest of them, he did not know how deep Hu Quan and Lin Yuan’s connection went.

Thus, when he talked about building the bas.e.m.e.nt 300 meters deep, he did not mention that Lin Yuan wanted to produce a large number of Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls.

Master Hong Shen treasured the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls, which all Creation Masters craved to obtain.

Moreover, with the added reason of the Soil Decaying Earthworm, Master Hong Shen thought that digging 300 meters deep would further secure the secret of the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls.

This also eliminated the need to purchase corrosive soil when they started nurturing Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls.

However, Master Hong Shen never expected Lin Yuan to open a s.p.a.ce Tunnel that connected the mansion to the Divine Wood Federation.
