Chapter 191 Spending DP
What caught his attention was the presence of the upgrade icon in front of each building.
Its meaning was clear – each of the buildings was upgradable. This implied that buying them wasn\'t the only time they would spend points on them.
If he had to be completely honest, the prices of the buildings were high, but not so high that they were unaffordable. It just meant that they had to work harder to gather more points.
\'I should only get what we need for now,\' Atticus contemplated. Unfortunately, they only had a total of 60,000 Division Points – too little to spend on items they didn\'t currently need.
But before he made any decisions, Atticus wanted to check the other categories too.
He navigated to the defense categories, checking out its items.
Unlike the buildings category, the defense category had no buildings. The only thing that practically required building was a wall, and Atticus doubted that they would be the ones doing the building given the round pillars surrounding the expanse.
The wall was upgradable too, with the lowest level being able to repel intermediate- beasts. But given the sheer number of the beasts that they had fought earlier, Atticus knew better than to trust its durability.
The rest of the items were focused more on defensive runes.
Taking a single glance at the prices, Atticus immediately closed the category.
\'Damn, almost gave me a heart attack,\' he thought.
The lowest defensive rune was priced at 350,000 DP! Atticus couldn\'t even dream of obtaining that many points for now.
\'But it\'s well worth it though,\' Atticus thought.
Each of the runes, even the lowest, would cover the whole camp. And the best part, unlike the wall, where it was scalable and the durability couldn\'t completely be trusted, these runes, according to their description, were better.
The lowest, priced at 350,000 DP, was able to repel intermediate rank beasts and lower, regardless of their numbers.
And nothing was needed to maintain the rune; it could sustain itself by gathering mana in the air.
After scrolling through it for a bit, Atticus left this section and moved to the last category: Attack. The attack category was as its name sounded, mostly filled with items used for attacking.
Atticus could see some weapons and artillery from the list, some of which, when placed on the wall, could automatically release attacks at enemies as soon as they spotted one.
There were numerous attacking items on the list, but Atticus closed it after a while of perusing the list. They were all useful and good, but not what they needed currently.
Many things were on Atticus\'s mind, but the two most important were the powerful monster in the forest and what was set to happen one month from now.
For the former, Atticus wasn\'t too worried about it. Although he couldn\'t say it was 100%, he doubted the academy would give them a challenge they couldn\'t overcome.
The same was true for the beast horde; the whole attack hadn\'t lasted for long. Only just over an hour. If they had truly wanted the students to fail or suffer, they would have left the beast to rampage without stopping them.
But for the latter, Atticus was a little worried.
Currently, apart from the Ravenstein youths, the remaining members of his division were crazy weak.
Atticus had his deductions on what would happen in a month, and this was further proven by one of the things he had read about Academy points – killing beasts and defeating students would get you AP.
What does that imply?
Simply put, \'we\'ll be fighting other students eventually,\' Atticus concluded.
"Damn, these guys really got me, huh," Atticus muttered with a slight chuckle.
Despite the fact that he was the leader, it didn\'t mean that he was going to completely protect and always help the rest of the members of his division, especially the other youths who were basically strangers to him.
He wasn\'t that nice.
But the fact that just one of them \'dying\' meant 1% of his total AP would be gone – 100, and he\'ll become broke – changed a lot of things.
Atticus obviously doesn\'t want that to happen, and although he suspected that they would be fighting other students soon, he had no idea what theme it would be.
It was highly probable that he won\'t have complete control over the situation. He wasn\'t sure he would be able to protect them.
With all of these things being considered, there was only one way forward – they had to train them.
And to do that, they had to spend a lot of points.
Atticus navigated to the building category, instantly scrolling down to where the training grounds were located.
===
19. ** Training Grounds:**
- Open space for skill development and combat training.
- *Pricing: 25,000 DP*

Atticus immediately added it to his cart. The training grounds were vastly different from the advanced training facility which cost a fortune.
It was simply an outdoor space for training. It also had many other benefits or else Atticus couldn\'t have wasted points when they could all just train in the expanse.
He also scrolled up and added barracks to his cart. It annoyed him to no end that he had to use the points this way, but most of the youths hardly killed any monsters.
Their AP was sure to be low and non-existent. None of them would be able to afford anything and wouldn\'t have any place to sleep.
Despite the fact that he had shown them his strength and proven to be more than capable of being their leader, it was still better to treat them all as humans and keep the atmosphere positive.
He was dealing with over one thousand people, all from different locations in the human domain.
Just a single seed of hate was enough to create a spark, a spake that would eventually lead to something he just knew would be stupid.
Although he would be able to suppress any nonsense that started easily, it was still better to avoid it altogether.
But on the bright side, the lowest Barracks would be able to house every one of the youths.
