Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 1175: Chapter 485: Jianghai’s Future Landmark: Heart of Myriad Spirits! (Part 2)

Designer Bai glanced at the people working over there before finally saying:

"Master Su, why don’t we walk and talk? All the connecting transport for the Heart of Earth has already been put in, and you’ve actually never done a proper inspection of it, right? I’ll explain it to you slowly on the way?"

Su Ping thought for a moment, nodded, then rubbed Old Sha’s big head.

"Old Sha, you go back first."

Then he looked over at that little foreman from the construction crew just now:

"That Bullet Bee hive, have them place it in the Rock Heart area for now. I might end up needing it later!"

"Got it, Master Su, don’t worry, I’ll definitely send these Bullet Bees back exactly as they are!"

Su Ping nodded, then followed Designer Bai onto the internal shuttle of the Heart of Myriad Spirits.

"Master Su, you’ve seen it too, right? On this map, the main thing is the expansion area to the southeast. That wasn’t our idea—right after you left two days ago,

Master Liu and President Qin came over in the capacity of the two associations of Jianghai Province to do an inspection and give us some guidance!

It was President Qin who made the decision! This stretch of land near West Dragon Lake has always belonged to Linzhou, and it has never even been auctioned off before. Now, after seeing the development results of our Heart of Myriad Spirits, President Qin was extremely satisfied,

and as the official voice of Jianghai Province, President Qin also endorsed the Heart of Myriad Spirits’ determination to grow into a world-class Pet Beast Breeding Base, while expressing Jianghai Province’s vision of our Heart of Myriad Spirits becoming a landmark of Linzhou in the future.

At the same time, if possible, he also hopes the Heart of Myriad Spirits can bring out the unique geographic characteristics of West Dragon Lake in Jianghai Linzhou and build it up even more perfectly.

So, in his capacity as President of the Provincial Beastmaster Association of Jianghai, the old man took it upon himself to grant this whole parcel of land as an interest-free, no-term loan for our Heart of Myriad Spirits to keep developing.

Precisely because of this, the design department has been working overtime for several nights straight to replan the design map on the Heart of Earth side. Aside from the Heart of Snow and Heart of Ice, which are both almost completed and far too costly, everything else has corresponding modifications."

Designer Bai’s spiel almost made Su Ping feel like he was watching the news.

But he didn’t pay it too much mind.

He had no reason to reject Old Qin’s goodwill, and he even knew exactly why Old Qin was doing this.

The Jianghai Advanced Beastmaster Academy is already almost finished.

For that old guy to carve out time to personally come to the Heart of Myriad Spirits, dragging Liu Fuhai along with him, clearly means he still hasn’t given up on that previous idea.

Yep—nothing more than wanting him to show his face and lend support to the Jianghai Advanced High School.

Rubbing his temples, Su Ping felt a bit of a headache.

But right now, he honestly didn’t have the heart to turn him down too hard.

Reason being, if this were ancient times in Dragon Nation, having a swath of land this big under his command would mean he wasn’t even just a landowner anymore.

The entire east suburb where the Heart of Myriad Spirits sits is over twenty kilometers from West Dragon Lake, with several hundred square kilometers of land stretching along both sides of this main road!

In ancient times, that would already count as a small city lord.

For Old Qin to gift him such a huge piece of land, besides having real confidence in the development of the Heart of Myriad Spirits, the main reason is naturally still that matter.

Looked at this way, when he has some time someday, he really does need to sit down and talk with Old Qin—after all, when you take someone’s favor, your hand does get a bit soft.

Exhaling a breath, Su Ping pushed his attention back to the present:

"Leave the rest aside. Let’s develop this Heart of the Plain first, still following the previous plan: the Heart of the Plain will run through the entire Heart of Earth and serve as its central hub. Since the Heart of the Plain doesn’t need any Advanced Level resources to over-pack it, just get it finished as soon as possible.

The Cloud-Patterned Tree Python, Forest Wolves, Shadow Wolves, Hunting Wolves, and the other pet beasts already in the Heart of Earth should all be placed into the Heart of the Plain to be settled in first."

"Don’t worry, what you envisioned earlier, including leisure facilities like the horse ranch, are all already included in the planning.

Besides that, this time the designers who came have integrated your breeding areas, pet beast housing areas, and the spaces that allow some tourists to enter. The three kinds of areas are blended so the zones won’t be too fragmented, while still not affecting the pet beasts’ lives.

For example here—look, this is the spot in the Heart of the Plain where forest and grassland meet. The two environments are cleverly fused, yet they won’t cause conflicts between pet beasts living on either side, and here we’ve set up separate barriers so that from the tourists’ perspective they can clearly see the pet beasts inside."

The two of them rode the shuttle along the newly built road,

this road passes through the Heart of the Plain but doesn’t directly connect to the interior of the Heart of the Plain, and there are passageways along the road that go straight into the Heart of the Plain.

Instead of what Su Ping originally envisioned—big walls and courtyards sharply dividing everything.

This point made Su Ping nod in great satisfaction.

"Of course, the area is really huge, and it’ll take some time to make it absolutely perfect. The Heart of the Plain is relatively easy to handle; in the current situation, the toughest part should be over in Rock Heart.

The excavation of caves and peaks—your idea is that in the caves, underground insect-type beasts will be the main inhabitants, with the rest of the environment focused on Gold and Earth-type pet beasts.

That’s going to take a long time. Even in the best case, we’re probably looking at sometime before the end of the year before there are real results."

Half a year?

Su Ping nodded; he could accept that. After all, he doesn’t actually have many pet beasts that need to be settled there right now. Getting it done early is just preparing for emergencies.

"Alright, the rest of the places are still wasteland for now, not much to see. Master Su, want to go have a look at the already completed Heart of Ice and Heart of Snow? The Snow Wolves have already settled down in the Heart of Ice.

We’ve also purchased some Ice-type pet beasts for these two places!"

Breeder Bai introduced the area with a smile.

Su Ping nodded. These are finished zones, and they’re ones he’s particularly focused on—he really would feel guilty not checking them out.

The shuttle rolled forward slowly and soon stopped in front of a rare sealed building.

The Heart of Snow and Heart of Ice are fully connected. Because of their special nature, one is an activity area for Beastmasters, and the other is an activity area for pet beasts, so they’re still kept quite separate.

And facts have proven—

expensive things only have one downside.

They’re expensive.

Beyond that, there’s really nothing to complain about.

High above the Heart of Snow, one Floating Cold Star after another shimmered with bright light, and while they radiated their brilliance, they made the whole sky over the Heart of Snow look like it was covered by aurora.

Floating Cold Star!

A Monarch-level Ice System resource, now used only for ornamentation and maintaining stable temperature and energy.

The ice-sand and snowflakes underfoot were soft yet extremely resilient.

Stepping on them felt incredibly comfortable.

The Snow Wolves were either romping and playing next door on the fully frozen ice surface of the Heart of Ice,

or a few of them were harnessed in gear, pulling sleds, ready at any time to enter the castle-like slide structures built around the Heart of Ice.

And in the human-only ski area and pet beast–exclusive snow battle arena not far from the Heart of Snow, several Ice-type Elemental Frosted Snowmen were over there.

Their realm isn’t high, but they’re extremely lively.

Those Frosted Snowmen are only at Normal or Elite Level, still in their juvenile stage.

After Su Ping bought them, he still hasn’t interacted with them.

Meanwhile, on the frozen lake surface of the Heart of Ice and inside the ice-sculpted castle is an area not open to the public, reserved solely for Su Ping’s Ice-type pet beast breeding and observation rooms.

From here, you can observe the pet beasts in the Heart of Ice and Heart of Snow.

The whole zone is huge, but it doesn’t feel empty at all—you could even call it perfect.

"Master Su, are you satisfied?"

Designer Bai asked a bit cautiously.

Su Ping nodded:

"Not bad—actually beyond what I expected. After seeing the Heart of Ice and Snow, I’m even more looking forward to the day the design results of the rest of the Heart of Earth are unveiled."

Designer Bai finally let out a long breath:

"Being able to for you..."

Before she could finish, a figure flashed over to Su Ping’s side, forcing her to swallow the rest of her words.

The figure was extremely short, but having stayed at the Heart of Myriad Spirits for quite a while, Designer Bai naturally knew exactly who this person was.

Meng Yao gave Designer Bai a glance, then ignored her and spoke directly:

"Finally found you, brat. Su Ping, come with me!"

Su Ping raised a brow. "What are you up to?"

"To give you a little push about how important Water Element pet beasts are, this Holy Spirit has decided that the development of the Heart of Water in the Heart of Myriad Spirits will continue, and I’ll personally supervise it! Aside from the previous plan, I’ve had a few new ideas. Come take a look and see what you think."

Meng Yao thumped her chest, leaving Su Ping speechless, but he didn’t refuse and nodded:

"Let’s go. Sister Bai, we’ll talk again later."
