Low Dimensional Game-Chapter 18 - The Dimensional Castle and Mouse-people

After signing the contract, settling the payments, and dealing with some documentation, the ownership of the pet shop had been transferred to Lu Zhiyu. The documentation for the pet shop was rather simple and only ended up costing a few hundred yuan.

Lu Zhiyu started becoming busy after taking over the pet shop. He got a contractor to carry out some minor renovations for him, and just like that, the new Cats and Dogs Pet Shop was ready for business. The previous owner had left his pet groomer in Lu Zhiyu’s employ, and since she was experienced, she was also familiar with how to tend to the pet store. She had been a great help to Lu Zhiyu, who was new to the business.

“Xiao Le, thanks for helping me. I am new to the business and have many areas to learn and handle. Do feel free to come to me if you have any problems!”

“Yes, boss!” a girl with curly hair said politely to Lu Zhiyu. After bidding goodbye, the girl turned toward the road and disappeared into the crowd.

Lu Zhiyu finally ended his first day of business after a busy day at work. He had not yet sold any pets, but there were many customers who had brought their pets for grooming and a bath. Xiao Le was rather young, but loved pets. She was also very good at trimming the fur of the pets. Every untidy looking cat or dog that came in left the store looking like a model.

Lu Zhiyu stayed later that evening at his pet shop, spending some time reading his book before heading home. Once home, he went straight to his laboratory that he had set up.

But at this point in time, the laboratory was empty. He took out the Scroll of the World and spread it out, revealing the Krynnspace within. The Krynnspace looked different. There was now an additional tiny bubble that was not visible to the naked eye.

This bubble was a small dimensional plane that Lu Zhiyu had created for himself. The space within it was very small, only about 1,000 square meters. The space was about the size of a house, and was filled with stones, which had been fitted together to form nine levels. Its style took after western historical architecture and resembled a castle.

The small dimensional plane was not independent. It was embedded above Maria’s World, their surfaces latching tightly on each other. The internal resource circulation system as well as the energy, and even the air, were all extracted from within Maria’s World. Hence, it was not an independent world.

Lu Zhiyu had used only three scales from the Source Form to complete the small dimensional space. He planned to use it as his secret base, and he called it the dimensional castle.

Lu Zhiyu kept the Scroll of the World and looked at the floor. There was a complex magic circle on the floor. He injected his mind power and activated the dimensional door. As his shadow flickered, he disappeared from the earth and entered the dimensional castle. The moment he appeared in the dimensional castle, the lights rapidly turned on and the entire place lit up.

Lu Zhiyu stood on the first level of the hall, feeling a little lost. He looked at the crystal lightings, the decorations on the wall, as well as the switches. Some of the decorations was created using Source Form, some bought on Earth by Lu Zhiyu, and some obtained from within Maria’s World. They were then put together when he created the rules for this space, and it had now turned into a castle.

This was the first time that Lu Zhiyu had entered the inner parts of the space in the Scroll of the World. It was only when he stood there, that he felt that the world he had created was not a sham or an illusion, but rather, that it truly existed!

Lu Zhiyu looked at the glass that was mounted at the top of the huge living room and light it refracted. He explored the surroundings and walked up to the second level. He saw the rooms, which had been constructed according to his blueprint.

However, there were not many furnishings except for the basics. After all, even with his Source Form, Lu Zhiyu could only create what he understood.

Lu Zhiyu knew that he had to use the Source Form sparingly, even if it was only 0.0001. The Source Form was the world’s most basic form of energy. Without the Scroll of the World, there was no way that Lu Zhiyu would be able to come into contact with such a high level existence.

As one went up the levels, there was a conference hall, library, restaurant, indoor swimming pool, restroom, bedroom, laboratory and prison. There was even a botanical garden at the very top level

There were five levels above the ground floor, and four levels down to the basement. The entire place was big beyond imagination!

The current power supply was produced by a diesel generator, which was just sufficient enough for operation. Lu Zhiyu suddenly had another thought. The queen insect had left behind a bio-nuclear energy machine in the painting space. It had been hidden in the inner parts of the hive that has since dried up.

It could devour any substance, even water, and turn it into nuclear energy. Previously, the queen insect, Sunika, had relied on it to keep up the insects rush strategy and control the world.

However, this thing was dangerous even though it had no intelligence or consciousness. Lu Zhiyu only had the thought in his mind. It would take a long while for him to realize this thought!

Lu Zhiyu went up to the top floor, which had rounded glass ceilings revealing the sky overhead. He intended to make this place a botanical garden, but it was currently empty.

He switched on the light, revealing a translucent protective layer outside the glass. That was the wall of the plane. Ordinary people would not be able to go near him or touch him. Those who entered would automatically be turned back. The folds in the space made one feel as though he was in a maze.

Outside the multiple folds of the wall of plane was the Ethereal Sea, or the astral world. This place was void of anything, and no living thing could survive within it!

After touring the dimensional castle, Lu Zhiyu returned to the bedroom that he had prepared for himself. He took out the Scroll of the World and hung it on the wall. Unless there was a need, Lu Zhiyu would not take the Scroll of the World away from this place. After all, this would be the safest place to keep it. Since he had full control over the scroll, it did not matter where the scroll was. He could easily access it using the dimensional door!

After adjusting the angle of the Map, Lu Zhiyu saw Maria’s World continuously being enlarged. One of the green continents gradually appeared before his eyes. Lu Zhiyu saw a group of undersized human figures in the valley. These fellows had short white fur, long beards, small eyes, and their limbs had evolved, now similar to those of a human.

This was the result of Lu Zhiyu’s experiment, the mouse-people. Lu Zhiyu had created an intelligent race, which had formed a colony in Maria’s World. Lu Zhiyu had implanted the genes of a mouse onto the genetic template of a human in order to create the genes of the mouse-people.

Following that, he created an artificial embryo through genetic engineering, which he then impregnated a dog with. He had never expected to successfully create an intelligent race from it.

The adult mouse-people were about 1.3 meters tall and were in the era of a primitive society. They were able to use tools and fire, and they made their clothes out of animal skins. They possessed the things necessary for the beginnings of a civilization.

Lu Zhiyu observed their behaviors and looks through the Scroll of the World. His pupils were dilated, as though he was witnessing the miracles of life.

I never thought that I could create intelligent beings! Lu Zhiyu felt as though he had reached the realm of God!
