Chapter 323: Dungeon Supplier Rank 3

Chapter 323 Dungeon Supplier Rank 3

For the rest of the evening, Jin tended to his shop and woke up earlier than usual. He needed to prepare the items and equipment for the trip to the Goblin World. Ripcaller said that the Goblin Kingdom was called the Gob Gob Kingdom, named after a mighty ancestor.

The Gob Gob Kingdom was one of the more advanced and highly populated Goblin Kingdoms in the Goblin World. Some even said that their military was the most advanced and highly sought after to enter by many various smaller kingdoms.

“So, we are going into the Capital straight away? Didn’t you tell me that humans were the enemies of the Goblins.” Jin asked the goblins and they nodded in unison.

“Well, we could bring you in as a slave?” Slashreaver suggested casually but did not mean any offence to his Master.

“I’d prefer not being a slave and get a harsh treatment. Hmmm… What about the half panda mask that I once used in the Dungeon World. Could that hide my presence as a human?” Jin asked the System and it gave an affirmative reply.

“It can be arranged. All the System requires is to insert a dispersing presence magic onto the mask. You would be able to walk into the capital with near zero awareness.” The System stated and Jin was confused.

“You mean I can just walk in and people would treat me as just a mere somebody?” Jin tried to confirm.

“Indeed. However if the mask is taken off, your presence will be noticed by everyone immediately. Consequences will be for you to handle. System advises not to bump into anybody and keep your distance!” The System replied as it magically popped the half panda mask right in front of Jin to hold on to. It looked the same as before, expect for a slight shining effect, which was barely noticeable.

“I do not feel comfortable doing this,” Jin admitted with a sigh as he looked at the Goblin Trio. Strikereaver then stepped forward and told Jin that he didn’t need to force himself today against his wish. “It might be a dangerous mission to undertake so we understand your concerns.” Piercestriker said, but Jin knew that a day delayed also meant one extra day without knowing how their home was.

“Alright, let’s do it tonight. That way I still have this day to think if I forgot to make something, which could end up helpful. Anyways I hoped that you guys still know your way around.” Jin asked and they all nodded their head until Slashreaver suddenly blurted, “That is if the capital is still around when we get there.” The other two goblins immediately knocked Slashreaver’s head as if what he’d said was a taboo.

The shop was as busy as ever but everything went smoothly throughout the day. Jin also began to hype the next dungeon instance that would finally feature the Deep Ones. Unlike all the other dungeons that were announced at short notice, Jin decided to change his strategy and tried to promote the upcoming dungeon.

With the early completion of the October mission, his dungeon supplier rank had finally turned from Level 2.5 to Level 3 giving Jin the ability to renovate his shop even further. And he did not waste the opportunity immediately opting for some changes both in the shop instance and outside of the shop. The first thing was to remove the ugly empty first floor of the shop in reality. He had changed the interior of the first, second and third floor to something similar to the Zen gallery. Open space with fresh green bamboos inviting both new and old customers to enjoy a sort of serenity that they desired after a day of hard work.

As the recovery instance and other service instances were already integrated with the shop instance, the second floor was renovated into something more of a place to relax and enjoy a quiet time where people could take a break from the shop instance or the real world. Benches and chairs were placed around the room, and there was even a bookshelf filled with random books and manuals.

Jin had requested Peppers to randomise the books, manuals, magazines and novels that were available in there once a week and even allowed cultivators and customers to rent or buy books from there with the use of their Pandamonium App. It turned out, it was very well received by certain groups who just wanted some peace and quiet. Unsurprisingly Jin had placed an anti-theft system in place for the books, but there was currently no one who would be so stupid to do that especially in a shop filled with cultivators.

In addition to that, Jin also recommended cultivators to donate their own books here for recycling purposes. Any books sold to Jin would be compensated with a few Panda Medals and maybe that was also why people received the whole mini library idea quite well that Jin converted the third floor similar to the second.

As for the first floor, Jin had placed posters of the promotional Deep One Dungeon and short clips of it at the front of the dungeon. He even changed the billboard with a few creeping octopus tentacles coming out from the Halloween themed Panda.

As for the October Mission, the System did promise a restaurant instance as a reward but Jin had already created one in advance for Lynn. Hence, the System had decided to enhance the Restaurant Train of Delicacy Instance by introducing more recipes, menus and exotic food parts from the Farming World to Lynn.

Jin pouted when he learnt that he was short changed for the effort he put in but Lynn patted him on the back while teasing him at the same time. “You sure it is your dungeons that brings you the customers? I have a nagging feeling it is more because of my cooking.” Lynn’s cute face did indeed melt Jin’s anger as he sighed and gave her a pass.

Evening came and Jin asked Yun to take over his role to take care of the shop while he made a last check alongside the Goblin Trio. With the results and analysis Jin received from fighting Keyrin, he had managed to improve the Gearbox even more and prepared partial Gearbox parts for the goblins for this particular trip. The new Gearboxes turned into equipment cards and Jin equipped a Right Arm Gearbox Gauntlet for Slashreaver, Left Arm Gearbox Gauntlet for Piercestriker and Legs Gearbox boots for Ripcaller.

Why prepare so much when Jin could summon people in need? The main reason was that Jin would be considered an enemy as the Goblin World had no concept of something like a summoner like the Dungeon World had. So him materialising monsters out of nowhere would only serve to make him stand out and he did not want to risk too many red flags for the Goblin Trio. It would be best to be simple yet versatile enough to act on any situation.

Hence, the System teleported them into an alleyway of the Gob Gob Kingdom. To their relief they found that everything was still quiet and orderly.

“Let us go to a pub to get some information. We will then know about the current situation before we proceed in searching for our families.” Ripcaller suggested.

“Why can’t we just go straight to your family?” Jin asked as he adjusted his half Panda Mask.

“Heh, because Ripcaller’s family owns almost every pub in the Gob Gob Kingdom. By contacting the bartender there, it is effectively telling Ripcaller’s family that he is alive. They will then spread that information to our families too.” Piercestriker explained as they brought a hood out when they walked out of the alleyway. Jin did the same to minimise his presence. Additionally he had used one of Kraft’s looted treasure from the Dungeon World. The Silent Cape.

“Feels like a medieval world to me,” Jin pondered as clouds started to shadow the moon and drizzles of rain tinkled into the Capital City of Gob Gob Kingdom while he and the goblins quietly moved from one street to another.
