Chapter 60: Tavern Functions
Although somewhat reluctant, Gu Xi understood that Luna wanted him to build the tavern for his own benefit.
He didn't want to let Luna down. Standing in front of the tavern for a moment, Gu Xi then entered the tavern holding the Staff of Shattering.
At this time, the staircase from the first floor to the second floor of the tavern was piled with various debris. This showed that the tavern's level had not been upgraded, and the upper floors were not yet completed.
In the lobby on the first floor of the tavern, there were a total of seven round tables, all of which were filled with corpses.
These corpses were covered in cobwebs and dust. No one knew how long they had been sitting there.
It seemed the tavern hadn't handled much else, but the terrifying atmosphere was spot on.
When Gu Xi entered, a skeleton in a red dress walked out from behind.
"Customer, what would you like to eat?"
"Any recommendations?"
Gu Xi sat down opposite a corpse and cleaned the dusty plate in front of him.
"Currently, we only offer roasted owl."
Gu Xi was stunned. So the 50 units of meat provided weekly by the Owl Tower referred to owls.
This thing should be edible... right?
Gu Xi thought uncertainly.
At the same time, he gestured for the skeleton in the red dress to serve the food.
As the skeleton left, two more skeletons in red dresses emerged nearby. Their rib cages were exposed as they surrounded Gu Xi and asked in low voices.
"Customer, do you need any other services?"
Gu Xi glared at the two skeletons, "I want a big bone soup. Can one of you lend me a leg bone?"
The two skeletons, embarrassed, quickly left.
After they left, Gu Xi pressed his head in frustration. Were these skeletons brainless?
Did they not see what they looked like? Who would be interested in a bunch of bones?
"Sorry, those two were not well-trained. Please bear with us. Oh, it's the Lord of the City. Why didn't you say so earlier?"
As Gu Xi was rolling his eyes, another skeleton in a red dress came out from behind. Her dress was tightly wrapped around her, and her footsteps were light and graceful, giving Gu Xi the impression that skeletons could be beautiful.
Before the skeleton could approach, Luna appeared in front of Gu Xi, blocking her.
"Luna, what's going on?"
"She appeared with the core building. This is a tavern maid. Originally, I thought a bartender and thief would appear, but it turned out to be something like this."
Gu Xi understood immediately. The difference between core buildings and large buildings was here.
Core buildings not only had functional aspects but also assigned corresponding personnel for management and operation.
If Luna had built a warehouse, a warehouse manager would have appeared.
Knowing this was his subordinate, Gu Xi casually checked her attributes.
Compared to Luna, a contract spirit, her attributes were fewer, but more than those of skeleton soldiers. As Luna said, she represented the core building's characteristics.
