A hundred new system windows manifested around Felix, showing the renovation previews. Magically, the previews accounted for the environnt, neighbors, and local roads in the images as if everything was hand-drawn instead of AI-generated.
Many stylish houses were gorgeous: a one-story glass cabin, a compound house with a swimming pool at the center, a treehouse condominium, a two-story bungalow with a huge courtyard, a townhouse-styled three-story house, a Minecraft-inspired block house, a UFO house on top of a giant pole, a cave entrance leading to an underground dungeon, and more.
Felix couldn't choose as everything was so attractive. However, when he considered practicality, suitability, security, and family-friendliness, he managed to eliminate so choices. In the end, Felix picked a four-story square concrete building with glass doors and walls. The building covered 80% of the land, leaving so space in front of the building as a parking lot.
There were four entrances: the front door, the fire exit at the back, the underground parking lot entrance, and the rooftop. Additionally, it featured six floors and one rooftop, including two underground levels.
The first floor was a wide and spacious area, partitioned into two sections: the front and the back room. The front area featured free shelves, display refrigerators, and 10 checkout machines, allowing Felix to set up a convenience store right away. The back area served as a storage room, connected to a staff elevator.
The B1 floor was partitioned into a parking lot area and a warehouse area. A tal shutter door served as a barricade, blocking the underground parking lot entrance and preventing trespassers from entering this area. A staff elevator was also there, allowing Felix's future workers to transport his goods to the first floor's storage room.
The B2 floor, unlike the upper floors, was not designed for residents but for electrical machines and waterworks. Various machines and containers, such as a boiler machine, a water tank, a septic tank, a water pump, an electric generator, batteries, and sophisticated pipes for electric wires and water systems, occupied 80% of the area, leaving a small room for technicians to monitor the machinery.
The second and third floors were left empty. The advertisent stated that they were purposely left empty so the house owner could use their imagination and skills to decorate and renovate these floors themselves.
The fourth floor, however, was reserved for the residents. Only the fourth floor was fully decorated and furnished, featuring three bedrooms, four bathrooms, one living room, one island kitchen, one dining room, one laundry room, and one suspicious isolated room located next to the master bedroom, hinting the existence of a trap door between them.
The rooftop featured a fire exit ladder and a helicopter pad, providing residents with guaranteed escape routes in case of ergency. Aside from the pad, a swimming pool and a 10-ter-tall water slide won Felix's heart.
Aside from the luxurious entertainnt facilities, the rest of the rooftop was filled with ventilation ducts, external air conditioner exhausts, another electrical house, a suspicious room with a diabolical magic circle and a bowl containing strange stones, and solar panels.
However, there was one issue. Felix froze when he read the building's description, which ntioned that it required one essence stone to continuously produce one million gallons of clean water every month. Felix's eyes were drawn to the magic circle room with strange stones.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed that all stones were placed at the corners of the magic circle as if they served as catalysts for the weird spell.
He couldn't help but ask Jessica and Yao Qiqi, "What are essence stones? What is this room?"
Jessica answered what she knew, ""
"So, I will lose one year of my freaking lifespan every month to maintain this house?"
