Chapter 1662: Chapter 1662
"Rejoice, people of Satana, after five thousand years, the ancient technology belonging to us Dwarves has returned to this land, countless people will once again shout this name, Shanata."
"Praise Moradin, it is he who has always protected us, giving us this opportunity."
"Praise Duralg, it is he who blesses us."
Upon hearing of the successful reopening of the Colossus Mining Pit, even the usually stern and reserved Dwarves couldn’t help but cheer and hug those around them tightly; it was an extremely glorious event for them.
"Tonight, the entire city will celebrate, with plenty of drinks, and no one goes home sober," Gaven timely added fuel to the fire.
This news quickly spread throughout Colossus City, inciting even more fervent praise and cheers.
After the reopening ceremony of the Colossus Mining Area, Gaven did not return to the Eastern Desolation but instead sought out King Giharin, warmly inquiring, "Is the Clan Leader adapting well to life here?"
"Adapting, very much so, it’s like returning home, I can’t remember the last time I gathered with so many Dwarves." The elderly Dwarf King continuously stroked his grizzled beard, his face glowing with a radiance, as if he had become decades younger.
To say he wasn’t excited would be a lie.
A king with subjects is a true king; he had been a king for half his life, but only this past month truly fit the title, though still on others’ land, still a wandering king.
"That’s good, the future operations here still depend on the Clan Leader’s management." Gaven shifted his tone, "I came back this time with a new task to entrust to the Clan Leader."
"What is it?" This update ıs available on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
"The population of Colossus City is growing, and even though there is a mushroom cultivation area in the mining area, it can only serve as a supplement. We must open up the ground for grain cultivation, and the gigantic livestock produced by Blood Gorge City is a significant advantage for us.
We must equip them with specially designed colossal plows. In addition, I plan to start a new type of agriculture over in the Great Valley, which will involve similar beast-shaped Enlightened Trees, also requiring specially customized farming tools," Gaven indicated the beast-shaped Enlightened Tree that had teleported back with him.
Its form was much like a Battle Mountain Laurel, with six legs and a high-backed body resembling that of a lion. However, instead of being made of thorny vines, its structure was of sturdy trunks, so from a distance, it looked more like a robust six-legged bull.
"That’s not really a difficult matter," King Giharin agreed readily, "Just enlarging the existing plows should suffice."
"If it were merely enlarging, I wouldn’t trouble the Clan Leader," Gaven was not so easily satisfied, "Not only do we need machines for farming, but also for sowing and harvesting—to free up labor to the greatest extent, aiming to cultivate the most land with the fewest people."
"Machines for sowing and harvesting?" King Giharin’s expression became serious, as it was the first time he had heard of such machinery.
"Don’t be confined to the mundane; you can start from the perspective of Rune and Magic, with many principles being interconnected. For example, the Blower, is essentially a permanency spell stabilizing a Second Circle Wind Creation. If a permanency spell stabilizes a Blade Whirlwind on a machine, it can be made into a crusher; if it stabilizes an animated object, it might even move on its own..."
Gaven took a manual from his pocket and handed it to King Giharin, "This is a collection of some whimsical ideas about spells that I’ve accumulated. They might offer some value for reference, and there are some of my personal design drafts at the back; see if they provide any reference."
Rather than design drafts, they were perhaps best described as magical adaptations of modern tools, enabling modern equipment creation through magic.
It’s just that most of the large-scale farming equipment, Gaven hadn’t seen firsthand in his past life; he could only gather what he had heard, leaving the solutions to professionals like King Giharin.
"Lord’s ideas are indeed quite unique. You’ve converted these destructive spells into constructive tools for production," King Giharin couldn’t help but express his amazement as he flipped through Gaven’s manual, "However, creating such equipment with a permanence spell might be excessively costly, as it consumes professional experience."
"I know, but once these production construction tools are successfully made, there’s a chance to earn back that professional experience exponentially, as long as they continue to build and produce, it will grant some professional experience to the maker, just like the strong weapons your blacksmiths forge. If those are used for dragon slaying, you also have a share of the credit, gaining some professional experience, except in smaller amounts."
Gaven was referring to the principle of magical power interaction throughout the Multiverse, "The Clan Leader only needs to provide technical support, as for the magic users, I will allocate them separately."
"No need," King Giharin waved his hand, "Our Dwarven Rune Magic is an entirely different system from ordinary magic, created precisely for forging and carving. I’ll first dispatch the elites from my clan to try according to our methods.
In my forging experience, it’s not about cramming as much into it as possible; that only complicates matters.
If one path doesn’t work, trying another is the wise choice."
"Alright," Gaven responded readily, "In this aspect, the Clan Leader is the expert, we’ll follow your lead."
