“special” had to be something out of the ordinary

With that thought in mind, Chloe opened the item desciptions.

[Hey, looks like you’ve got a bunch of blueprints, including Arcane Workshop Blueprint, Hearth Blueprint, Greenhouse Blueprint, Log Cabin Blueprint, and more. Do you want to use the Adaptive House Expansion Blueprint now?

[Warning: This action is irreversible. The blueprint can’t be reverted. Future construction blueprint modifications will automatically be absorbed. Cancellation is not possible.]

Chloe paused for a moment.

Alright, let’s do this, she decided.

ľ

She’s never been good at designing houses or picking out styles, those things just weren’t her strong suit.

Special items should serve special purposes.

She figured it was time to roll the dice

If using it could help her cut down on building materials, that’d be a sweet deal.

Now that night had fallen, Chloe acted immediately and clicked (Use] without a second thought

The rare blueprints Chloe had kept safe in her system backpack slowly floated out, each one glowing with its own color depending on their rarity.

int purple undertone.

From

its system grading

in the Trading Post, Chloe had learned that an item’s glow reflected not only magical fluctuations but also

The color of the glow essentially revealed an item’s system grade. Epic items emitted purple light, Rare ones glowed blue. Premium items shone green, and Common items appeared plain white.

Chloe had never taken the time to examine them closely before. The Arcane Workshop required extremely high-grade construction materials, so she had prioritized the Basic Arcane Defense Tower instead.

The Basic Arcane Defense Tower Blueprint radiated a vivid purple glow.

As the Arcane Workshop Blueprint floated out, Chloe saw its deep blue light shot through with a subtle purple shimmer. Technically, it was a Rare blueprint, but its level was already bordering on Epic.

Chloe spotted her other blueprints too. The Log Cabin Blueprint glowing white, the Greenhouse and Hearth Blueprints shining blue.

As the blueprints floated up, they merged together, releasing a mysterious, dazzling glow.

When the light faded, Chloe opened her eyes to find a blueprint hovering before her, so intensely violet it was nearly black.

[Expandable Living Arcane Workshop Blueprint: After using a special item, this blueprint uses the Arcane Workshop as its core. Even in special states, it can continue to expand. It carries a faint active vibe that helps optimize housing design and maintain aesthetic balance.]

[Quality: Grand Epic

[Effect: It can be constructed and upgraded. As more advanced/blueprints are added, the building’s quality will also improve. [Building Requirement: Arcane Workbench

[Building Materials: (Composited) 500 Rare Wooden Logs, 500 Premium Iron Ingots, 500 Premium Stones, 200 Rare Plant Fibers, 200 Premium or higher Glass Panes, 100 Adhesive Units, 300 units of Composite Premium Arcane Material, 30 Rare Arcane Carriers, and I Epic Energy Stone.

[Supports modular construction of separate functional zones]

Chloe stared at the list of materials, her jaw dropping in shock.

“Seriously? Are these even real materials? Hundreds of Rare Wooden Logs, tons of Premium Arcane Materials, and Rare Arcane Carriers… Am I building a palace?’ she muttered to herself.

Her eyes widened.

The required materials were far more than everything she had ever collected combined.

She let out a helpless smile, wondering, ‘Is every advanced blueprint going to demand this insane amount of materials?”

She sighed and carefully tucked the special blueprint away.

Anyway, she’d already experienced firsthand just how powerful a Legendary building could be.

Honestly, her current cabin was too cramped for her.

Even though the materials required were daunting, it was still worth attempting.

Calming herself. Chloe looked at the materials she currently owned.

She was still just a bit short of what she needed to upgrade her territory.

At the moment. Chloe had 403 common wooden logs, 198 iron scraps. 174 stones, and

Zero Zanes

To upgrade her territory, she’d need 500 wooden logs, 500 stones, 100 basic crystal materials, 300 iron scraps, plus an extra 100 units of random basic building materials.

Basic crystal materials basically meant glass panes, and Chloe had none at all.

She pressed her lips together, thinking, ‘It’s still a huge gap.

She knew there was no way she could gather basic materials as fast as players like CarpenterSoul, but maybe there was another way.

Inspired by CarpenterSoul, an idea came to her, perhaps she could sell some unused items in advance.

Chloe scanned her inventory for anything she could sell, and her gaze settled on the Simple Dew Collector she still hadn’t built.

Water wasn’t a problem for her anymore, and honestly, she didn’t really need the Energy recovery boost either.

Her Energy limit was way higher now.

She figured she could craft the Simple Dew Collector and put it up for sale.

However, her energy was nearly depleted after a long day. It was already three in the morning, and exhaustion weighed heavily on her.

She really needed to get some rest.

Rubbing her slightly aching temples, Chloe returned to her room, slipped on her slippers, and laid out the elk rug she’d just

gotten.

The elk rug was pretty magical. According to the system, it was massive, but once she spread it out in her cabin, it magically adjusted itself to fit the room perfectly.

She walked barefoot onto it after slipping off her slippers. The soft, fluffy texture was deeply soothing, and she instantly felt her tension melt away.

Inside the cabin, the Crystal of Knowledge filled the room with dazzling brilliance, as if it were another world entirely, with fragments of light scattered across the ceiling.

Chloe pulled a thin blanket over herself before drifting into sleep. With a Legendary Defense Tower standing guard outside. she felt completely safe.

On her fifth night in this world, she slept peacefully.
