Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest
chapter-680

Once the plaza was done, the rest of my citizens were alarmed, walking around, and discovering that the city had gained a tremendous, big plaza for recreation! The children were the most excited, wandering around and running across the hue segment of the still-in-progress city.

With my friends and Titania, we checked the facilities slowly. The fountain's water was indeed pure spiritual spring water, recovering Mana and even giving an amazing INT and WIS buff for 24 Hours, with no side effects either!

The other buffs, especially the one where their Morale keeps high all the time are really amazing, and it immediately showed the moment everyone's spirits were lifted after that hard battle against the Undead invaders.

"This place is sure spacious!"

"Woah, did Lady Planta made this?!"

"It appeared out of nowhere… Only gods could create things so fast!"

"Well, she's already a goddess to us anyways!"

"Lady Planta, Lady Planta! The water is yummy!"

The children Myconid, Brownies, Squirrel-kin, and Gnomes were all playing together over the fountain, drinking the water, and feeling their minds much clearer thanks to their buff.

"Come on now children, don't play around too much, the fountain water must stay clean, alright?" I reprimanded them, as the children swiftly jumped off the fountain and apologized.

"Sowy…"

"Sigh, it's fine! Go play around! Oh, there's a lot of new trees too!" I pointed out. "There'll be games and stuff later, once I find people to maintain them."

"Looks like we've got a whole new place to enjoy." Mark said, wandering around and then returning to my side. "It feels like a festival, a carnival, and a plaza all fused together."

"It could work, I guess." Rita said. "I bet this'll make the people happy all the time at least."

"It seems very interesting!" Titania was fascinated. "Do you not mind my citizens coming over to check the place, Planta?"

"Oh? Of course not! We all share the same territory, so we're like friendly neighbors!" I giggled. "In exchange, I hope my people can be allowed to enter your place at all times."

"For sure, they are all trustworthy." Titania smiled. "But seeing this beautiful place has made me wonder if I should build one of my own. Though, without your special powers, that might end up being much harder to do."

"Certainly… But I could build another of these back in your city! As long as I gather enough Community Points for that…" I wondered.

"Oh no, don't waste those precious resources on my city. I shall take responsibility for it, you've helped us rebuild everything already, I couldn't ask for more, it would only make me feel guiltier." Titania sighed.

"So this is the power of the Territory Management System. She materialized a huge plaza out of nowhere!" Erdrich gasped. "It's really like those Civilization-type games! So cool…"

"And also so complex, didn't you said it had effects, Planta?" Asked Angelina.

"Yeah, a lot of them. Each building I make using this System holds a Status, which includes many skill-like effects. They're like passive abilities that work for literally everyone!" I said. "Sometimes they also produce a unique resources, such as the water, and these new trees and flowers that just popped up."

The new trees were fruits I've never seen before, some called Trombe Fruits, White Apples, Cherubin Cherries, and herbs such as Blue Selofasia, Red Embers, and Golden Roses.

They were all high quality, rare Alchemy Materials to make all sorts of special Potions, Bombs, and other items! They came in small numbers though, but as long as they keep growing over time, there'll be a small yet constant supply of them.

With the help of the Mushroom Brigade, who had been administrating the city rather well, I was able to quickly appoint a lot of citizens into the many facilities. Some were placed in charge of the games, others into the food cars, and a few into the Alchemy Atelier and the Crafting House.

The last two were our final tour around the Plaza. Both buildings were as huge as manors, filled with many tools and rooms. The Alchemy Atelier included three Mid-Quality Alchemy Cauldrons, and a lot of other tools for alchemy such as a Mana Stone Processor, a Magic Stabilizer, and a Material Purifier.

The Crafting House was just as interesting, it came with tons of crafting tools, sewing tools, hammers, and even two huge furnaces! It was incredible what it created with just stone and woods, and well, lots of Mana. That must have done the magic I guess.

"We're done ma'am. I've assigned some of my better chefs to maintain the many food cars so we can offer the people some tasty and healthy snacks to keep the morale high! This'll also generate a nice income to keep the city going!" The Mushroom Brigade cook master, Chef, said, with a rather excited smile.

"Thank you for your help, Chef!" I gave him a head pat. "I'll leave Cooking and Food Spirits to make the food tastier and more healthy too."

"Oooh! If that's the case, even I might come cook here! Those spirits are always amazing at making everything delicious!" Chef was very happy.

"We're also done preparing things." Magius, the purple-capped Mushroom Girl walked in. She was the magician of the brigade. "With Alice, our Alchemist, and Apothecary, our Medicine Specialist, the Alchemy Atelier will be in good hands. They've gotten a lot of apprentices lately! I'll also cooperate whenever I'm not hunting monsters or teaching magic."

"Yep, what she said!" Alice, the adorable green-capped mushroom girl nodded.

"Indeed…" Yawned Apothecary, who looked scruffy and with a big beard, with a brown cap.

"That's nice to hear! I'll join you guys whenever I can. I'll leave Alchemy Spirits there as well, so they can be of assistance." I said with a nod.

"That'll be of great help!" Alice was the most excited. "Alright, my apprentices! Let's go! W-We've got so much to make now! Uwaahahahah!"

She was really, really excited, huh…

"And as for the Crafting House, the duty will be left to Hammer, our Blacksmith and Crafter." Sporegon said, as the largest and most muscular of the mushroom brigades stepped in, with a black colored cap.

"Leave it to me, ma'am! I'll make some mighty good equipment now that I've got a proper place!" Hammer said happily, lifting his huge forging hammer.

"Yeah!" A tiny, rainbow-capped Mushroom Brigade member said. "I-I'll do my best to keep learning too, Lady Planta!"

This was the weakest of them all, he was named Jack, and as of now he hadn't participated in most battles, still learning. He was the youngest, an apprentice with the ability to learn from the rest, maybe that's why he's named Jack, to make him a "Jack of all Trades".

"I'll be looking forward to your progress, little Jack!" I smiled, gifting him a few gold coins. "Here, for your great efforts so far!"

"Uwaah! Thank you so much! I'll spend it wisely into crafting equipment!" He said happily.

"Come on kid, just spend it on whatever you want!" Hammer laughed, patting his head. "Lady Planta gave it to you so you can have fun! Go on, take a rest, and join the other kids!"

"R-Really? W-Well, thanks!" Jack was really excited, rushing to meet the other kids playing in the plaza.

His presence has slowly become more prominent lately, I wonder what sort of person he'll grow up into in the future…

Anyways, for now, I should spend the rest of my Community Points and upgrade the other important buildings while we are at it.

Oh right, I should probably ask Hammer about Hephaestus later… he might know something.
