Chapter 1831: Inner Circle Improvements (Part 1)

Anyway, other than those areas, there were also some improvements made in the inner circle.

The inner circle was already fully developed for the most part, and they didn’t do demolition (yet), especially when there was no need to.

However, there were still places they could improve on, regardless.

About a few weeks ago, the proposal to develop another area was moved forward. It was an extension of the hot springs, though not really.

The hot spring’s meditation garden was so popular and proved to be really effective.

For example, fire users like Luis, water users like Betty, earth users like Oslo, and Wood users like Sean had all claimed that they had comparatively better progress when they meditated in the hot springs.

Apparently, there were more enlightenments and more aether absorbed during meditation in such settings (at least for the related elements, fire, water, earth, and wood).

It was not surprising, then, that a huge number of people petitioned for a larger area to be developed.

However, because the hot springs could only be used for 12 hours at a time, and the reservations were too long, the current arrangement simply wasn’t practical for those who just wanted to meditate.

And so, after some discussion, the Construction and Design group decided to expand the meditation garden and separate its entrance. They would be led to a wonderfully curated area with steam coming out, surrounded by related flora.

There were also waterproof but soft cushions located in certain areas, and a few high shrubs to provide some privacy between meditating people. In terms of density, they were about a meter apart, though somehow the design and arrangement made each area feel a bit bigger and more comfortable.

About a hundred people could meditate here at a time, paid for exclusively by contribution points. There was a public restroom there, but no other amenities, and the payment was on a per-entrance basis.

So, the moment they left the gates, it was assumed they were already done, and the next-in-line would occupy their spot.

This way, those who simply wanted to meditate didn’t have to wait in such a long line, especially since there were far more people who could fit in an area using this arrangement.

Of course, those who bought tickets to the hot springs would also have priority access to its meditative garden, and they had their own queue, like a priority lane.

As soon as this development was over, the area’s activity never stopped, working even at night.

Who’d have thought the development that was supposedly purely for luxury actually contributed to the territory’s overall strength?

...

Everyone was doing their parts, some improving their crafts for the further rise of Alterra, some improving their strengths, and some improving their facilities.

The private developments, like renovation of restaurants and the like, would have to wait until later, primarily because the construction and design companies had their hands full with the massive amount of ongoing construction right now in Alterra.

Ah, passive income.
