Chapter 61 - 61: Recruiting People

Next morning. 

On top of the Cloud peak, Robert is in front of a big pot. Inside, a few barks of trees are being boiled.

Papermaking is not that difficult as he has a lot of materials now. It's still some time before the opening of the restaurant so Robert decided to make some paper for his plans.

Yesterday, He realised that he needs more people if he wants to build a city or his own power. 

But it's not easy to get others to join him and make them work for him. After all these creatures are used to being lone rangers and do not want to join any power for any reason.

In cultivation terms, they are Casual beasts(Cultivators). That's why he needs another method to make them work for him.

"Robert, what are you cooking?" White Fang Was beside him her gaze was fixed on the pot as she asked curiously.

"It's not something you can eat!" Robert replied plainly. This foodie comes whenever he is using fire thinking that he is cooking something.

"What? Are you doubting my eating ability?" White Fang raised her eyebrows and said with a pout. 

"No dummy…" Robert was speechless hearing her and said, "What I am doing is not making food but paper making."

"Papermaking?" White Fang was confused when hearing him she wanted to ask more but when she saw his serious face while stirring the big pot she kept quiet.

After the bark was boiled, the next step was quite easy. He washed the boiled stuff then mashed it.

After doing this he added some water to it creating a liquid mixture. Then he added some liquid secreted by trees to increase the viscosity between the fibres. 

Then he stirred the mixture well. Now there is also a step to dry it and he will have paper through it which cannot be compared to previous life but it's still usable.

He finally looked at White Fang and asked, "Do you still want to eat this?" 

Without hesitation, White Fang shook her head. Who would want to eat this sticky thing?

....

Like yesterday many creatures have been gathered below the cloud peak waiting for the restaurant to open. After yesterday's feast, everyone tasted the benefits of the Taotie restaurant. Everyone's cultivation improved and some creatures with low cultivation directly broke through.

They have tasted benefits and this place is safe so of course, they will come here again. 

They have saved some heaven and Earth treasures yesterday because of free food so they would spend that today and increase their cultivation.

Soon Valor and others arrived. This time Valor walked with Buster and Molly.

Yesterday he communicated with these two and felt that they are very interesting. One had a lot of information despite his silly face and the other was a skilled fighter with different talents. 

On top of that three of them were first to enter their Taotie restaurant so they were like 'comrades'.

"Not bad! today you can definitely enter the Foundation Realm." Valor looked at them with happiness. This happiness is not fake! If they enter Foundation Realm he would have an additional fighting partner.

"Hmm, That's right but I don't know if I can have an ancestral awakening." Molly raised his head and said with some expectation.

"Ancestral awakening does not depend upon spiritual energy but the thickness of ancestral bloodline inside you." Buster rolled his eyes and said. It's not easy to have an Ancestral awakening.

"True ancestral awakening is not easy." Valor nodded and agreed with his statement, "But it's fine as long as you enter Foundation Realm after all life span is more important." 

The other two nodded before they did not have the luxury to think about ancestral awakening because they were struggling to enter Foundation Realm.

"Now that I think about it! There was something fishy about yesterday's attack." Buster remembered this and stated his thought to two of them, "I feel like someone is behind this attack."

"Your word makes sense, there must be someone behind this attack and his strength should be scary. After all, he can command a late-stage Foundation realm creature." Valor nodded and agreed with his conjecture.

"Doesn't that mean that this place is dangerous?" Valor asked with worry. After all, one who can command a late-stage foundation realm creature must be a core formation or even higher. 

"Don't worry this place is safe." Valor replied confidently seeing their puzzled expression he said to them in a low voice, "Don't tell anyone but I discovered that a Core Formation Realm Beast is residing inside the Taotie Restaurant." 

"What!?" Both of them exclaimed in a loud voice attracting everyone's attention. 

Seeing that everyone's attention was on them Valor hurriedly said, "It's a secret! Why are you announcing it to the world?" 

Both of them hurriedly covered their mouth and said after changing the place, "Are you feeling the truth?"

There was a faint excitement in their voice as they said this. If this information is true then coming here is safe.

After all, with core formation sitting here their protection is guaranteed. Although the Vote formation is not a peak expert in the inner forest it's still safe to be with them here on the edge of the inner forest. 

Beasts with higher strength tend to live in deeper parts of the inner forest. So here Core formation is king!

"Of course it's true! Why would I lie to you?" Valor saw their shocked expression and was pleased 

"Then we can come here often." Both of them said with excitement as they looked at peak of Cloud peak with excitement. 

They did not wait for long as Slither arrived like usual and told them to come up. 

Everyone rushed up excitedly because it's time to increase their strength.

But when they reached the top of the mountain they saw Robert and others standing there waiting for them.

In Roberts's hand, there was a yellowish-white thin skin object on it there was written something in the beast language.

"Recruiting!"

(There is another thousand word for this chapter but it's not ready yet and I have to complete Mgs requirement so I will update this chapter later.. Today I have some work to do. Sorry)
