Chapter 77 - Inner World
Chapter 77 - Inner World
-----
By opening a rift inside my Inner World, we were all greeted by beautiful scenery, it was straight out of my wildest dreams of a perfect farm.
There was a large grassland, a few trees made up a small forest right at the left, and even a small lake in the middle between the grass plains and the forest, and even two rivers crossing through the forest into the grass plains, where many colorful flowers decorated their shores.
A brilliant sun high above illuminated the entire place, with a few and beautiful white clouds crossing through peacefully… It was the complete opposite of the utter chaos outside.
The entire place was like a stadium-sized floating island, and the water of the river fell right off the cliffs of the floating island, only to fall over the beginning of the river… meaning that if we fall from here, we'll land on the island again but on the opposite direction.
There were no wild animals, not even fish in the rivers, everything was pristine and peaceful, although I was able to notice that there were a few types of flowers and herbs that contained some magical essence within them, especially where the forest was…
And also, there was a big piece of flat dirt that seemed to be surrounded by wooden bars, it was the "farm" area.
"It's so beautiful, Master!" said Kireina, amused by the beauty of the scenery. I couldn't help but agree with her, it was indeed refreshing to see such a place, even if it were a small self-contained world.
"What a beautiful place… Indeed, perhaps we could rest for some time here, well, Master should rest, we don't really need to rest that much," said Anna.
"Indeed, perhaps sleeping could do you good," said Ervas.
"Uwah! A river, papa!" said Vudia, pointing at the river and then beginning to walk with her barefoot over it.
"It's refreshing!" she said while chuckling.
The pets led by Cuco also began to explore around, chasing each other while Cuco went to take a sip of the water, which he seems to have found refreshing and cold, appeasing his thirst.
I quickly decided to put our house near the farm area, which fit right in.
After that, a sudden system window appeared.
Ding!
[Welcome to your Inner World, Player Gustav]
[I am your personal A.I. designed exclusively to guide you through the System Functions]
[The Inner World Function has been designed to create a safe space where you could rest from your insane adventures through the Ragnarök]
[In this place, your Mana and Vitality will recover quickly, and your stamina will also be filled fast]
[Additionally, you can attend the farm, plant seeds, and grow different types of magical crops to eat or sell for Gold to the System]
[Crops can also contain magical properties and could even be used in the Alchemy Atelier System Function, yet to be unlocked]
[Cattle animals can also be raised here, where they will reproduce quickly. You can purchase them in exchange for Gold in the Animal Farm System Function, yet to be unlocked]
[You can also buy seeds in the Farm Shop in exchange for gold, additionally, you can expand the land where you can plant seeds, and also the Inner World itself by upgrading it through completing certain tasks and requirements]
[Other things such as fish, wild animals, and plants for the overall environment can also be purchased, and they will upgrade in quality the more the Inner World upgrades itself}
[Please don't forget to also check the Monster Hatchery, the Undead Graveyard, and the Training Grounds, as they had been annexed as of now]
[Enjoy your stay!]
[Oh, by the way, the time dilation between the outside world and the Inner World is of 1:5, meaning that a day outside is five inside of here, hopefully, this can aid you in assessing your gains while also making sure to rest and smell the roses a bit]
[Time dilation can be enhanced by upgrading the overall Inner World!]
A million system windows popped up in front of my sight, telling me about the wonderful Inner World capabilities.
Since when you have been this nice, System?!
I remember how sadistic you were on the first day!
Well, whatever…
So one day spent here is around 4 hours outside? That's sweet.
I really needed a place like this to relax… the outside world is way too unpredictable.
And it seems that no normal being can access this place unless they have some kind of spatial manipulation power.
Well, then… there are a few that could. Especially the giant tentacle from the sky, or those shiny celestial guys that went straight to new York to blast it into pieces…
Still, as long as they don't find me, I am good.
"It says that I can upgrade this entire piece of land even more, and additionally, I can even purchase things to add wild animals, fish, plants, and more… So it is really like some farm game," I said.
"Oh! That's quite amazing, Master," said Anna.
"Indeed, while we relax from the chaotic apocalypse outside, we can live the farm life! I can't wait to grow cute little ducks~ So we can eat them!" said Kireina, licking her lips.
"…Well yes, ducks are delicious, but don't call them cute if you plan to eat them!" I said.
"Fufu, I was joking~" chuckled Kireina.
In the end, Kireina and Anna began to cook some food inside the house while I went into the farm to check what I can buy, especially things such as seeds and so on.
Maybe we can grow magic carrots or something? I can only imagine the wonders of such a thing.
I quickly flashed into the flat dirt land and a sudden system window popped up right in front of my face, startling me a bit.
[Welcome to the Farm! In here, you can purchase all sorts of seeds of different magical plants found across the many dimensions, new and greater crops can be unlocked as the Farm Ranks Up!]
[To Gain Farm EXP, simply buy seeds, plant them, and take out the crops!]
[Special fertilizer can also be bought for the plants to grow faster!]
