Chapter 29: The Jungle Room
With a purchase of her mana, Delta made a new signboard as she felt her mana rise with the 24-hour period. It was time to stop moping and start to do something. It was slightly escapist of her to slip into a ‘dungeon mindset’. Delta let it slide for the moment as she let the feeling drive her forward.
The board above her tunnel was simple.
“To the farmer who raised Dil, I am sorry.”
It was messy and held only a percent of the guilt Delta felt but it was all she could to do for the moment. She promised she would do more in the future to make sure Dil saw how bad she felt. Something to really show how she really felt towards the death of people in her halls.
Horrible and sad. Delta eyed the sign and nodded as she moved down the tunnel. It would take time and DP she didn’t have for now. But she promised to make a proper memorial to the farmer soon. She didn’t care what it took nor did she care how long it set her back for.
You did... No. Is my reason faulty? We will try to make an area for this man. I feel this is a thing you desire.
“Nu... alert me when something of ‘memory’ or ‘memorial’ becomes unlocked,” Delta ordered quietly. Nu dinged in compliance and faded.
Delta inhaled and tried to gather her thoughts. There was much to do and she really didn’t have a clue where to begin. Her second floor and her first floor had much to improve and begin. For now, she had mana to waste as Hob and Gob went outside to gather more materials. It would keep her resources high in the in DP department.
With 53 mana and 20 DP, she didn’t have tons of options. She decided to split the numbers between floors for now.
DP for the first and Mana for the second.
Delta moved to the second floor, where the only room was her new Core room. The room which held her core before now became empty and Delta wondered what she could do with it. Standing in her core room, Delta opened the menu.
Second-floor menu:
Create tunnel: 10 ManaCreate room: 20 manaCreate main room: 80 mana (this seems to be a main feature of the Jungle Floor Theme. When purchased you get a room several times larger than the normal ones, allowing for massive amounts of space to decorate, place traps and so on. Might make for a central hub area, a long great hall or an impressive entryway into the floor.)Upgrades from first floor able to be applied.
Delta paced as she plotted. Her second floor only really had a Mana cost for now. She quickly checked and found that no monsters could be placed or come near the stairs that traversed to the first floor. Delta could see the same white barrier that protected the main entry from when she tried to place a trap or a monster.
The main room was obviously interesting but with a cost of 80... Delta could only hope her gobs could bring back a decent haul. She needed at 27 mana to buy it... she could make small rooms for now and raise her max Mana limit but that also seemed like a time-consuming issue as buying 2 rooms only gave her 75 mana.
With 12 mana regen it wouldn’t be terrible... still, she wanted to get a move on and make good on her word to redeem herself and her bigger goal... find the demon child.
“Nu, are there any more methods of finding mana springs?” she asked with a business-like tone and Nu appeared with a flash.
Not that I can see. I feel like those able to sense Mana in its basic form would help but even Cois is more likely to sense fire-element Mana than basic. Perhaps ask Quiss? He seems able to use magic.
Delta hummed as she paced. If she needed to wait until she had 80 mana then Delta would simply ask Ruli for some tributes or Deo. They both seemed likely to help her if she simply asked. Ruli especially if Delta added more rare fish to her pond...
Until then, Delta looked up at the simple iron staircase that kept her floors separate, she would do good where she could.
First off, her first floor needed some upgrades...
---
“I hardly take fools bet but you make it too easy,” he mocked and kicked a tree which a girl fell out of with a yelp.
Ruli had to admit. When it came to ruining fun, Quiss was the master.
----
Her Mudroom had been upgraded to allow her traps to respawn whenever the dungeon was empty of outsiders. The tripwire in the air and the random stick trap on one of the log platforms. It left her with 10 DP to mess with. Delta watched as her gobs jumped on the log with the trap and it didn’t activate. A useful built-in feature. It didn’t seem work when she designed a complication with her room construction such as the mud or the thin platforms.
“Mr Mushy, what do you suggest I do next?” she asked the giant mushroom man. It peered upwards in response to her voice.
It slowly raised a giant thumbs up and Delta beamed.
“Thank you for the advice! I will do exactly that!” she half-joked as it went back to chasing Boary around the Grove. The mushroom man enjoyed petting that animal far too much. It was better than the Greater Mushy who looked it just wanted to eat everything...
Hob and Gob returned, bickering over who had the largest haul. Delta moved to them and smiled as they dumped the same things onto the floor. Their wooden armour clacked and Delta found the equipment cute in a way. Delta watched as her Mana easily hit 85. Delta blinked and looked down at the only unique item among the mushrooms and water.
It was a rabbit but its fur wasn’t the usual grey or white. It was red. The rabbit looked to be in some pain as it looked like it had lost a fight with some animal. Hob clubbed it over the head making Delta wince.
Blood Hare absorbed!
Critter unlocked! “Blood Hare!”
Blood Hare: This fast rabbit sheds its coat 10x a year. No one knows why but the coat does have some toughness to it. The coat grows deeper red the closer to the end of the year it is. It also tastes rather good.
Delta blinked at the offering and as her Mana dropped to 84, she rushed to her second floor, yelling thanks to her gobs who looked pleased and nudged each other in a pleased motion. Delta would be lost without them and reminded herself to upgrade them with the slingshots soon. It was only fitting and having some birds for her jungle wouldn’t be so bad.
Some ridiculous dancing bird that moved backwards would be brilliant and Delta grinned as she purchased the main room and build it just off her core room.
Main room has been purchased. +10 max mana. This room will naturally grow plants and trees purchased for it. The jungle room cannot be upgraded to a special room and will remain a jungle room. *I suggest building off to the sides for hidden rooms and challenge rooms if your wish or building another room to the north for a better Core room.
Delta nodded and the room came with it’s own entrance door. Delta admired the leaf style metal and root scuplted wood. Delta moved past it and saw the huge room before her. It was like a giant wall of mist that turned transparent as Delta looked at it. She could see the far walls, covered in wood and trees. Delta ran forward and counted. It took her roughly 3 minutes of full sprinting to reach the far side and Delta turned with a laugh as she pumped her fist into the air.
“Welcome to Delta’s paradise in the mist! Please do not annoy the frogs,” Delta mock called to the empty mist and opened her menu to observe the upgrades of the room.
Oh... oh!
This could be fun.
Delta looked at her options and saw she had quite a few plants to begin her reign of peaceful-terror. Sending her gobs out again with a respectful tone, Delta wondered what a Silverleaf and a Wyin plant would do to this jungle.
Delta could hardly wait to see what this turned into in a few days. She tried to cackle and sounded just joyful.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
