Chapter 103: Building a Floating City (Part 2)
Building a floating city is not only a meticulous job, but also a very long process.
This is not like the time of Naserel. You just need to cut off a mountain, then inlaid the Miser energy core in the center of the mountain, and finally build a staggered building. Basically, a floating city is completed.
In Brian's opinion, this should be the easiest process to build a floating city. Of course, he would not choose to just do it so perfunctorily for his own floating city.
After all, the great arcanes of the Naserel era had just begun to establish the floating city just to prevent harassment from the evil race orcs on the surface.
It was not until the late period of the Naseril Empire that the various floating cities of the great arcane masters gradually focused their energy on how to make the floating city stronger and more beautiful.
Unfortunately, when the great arcanes realized this problem, the empire had begun to perish.
Otherwise, Brian might be able to use ancient materials and brainstorm to learn from the unique ideas of these great arcane masters to contribute to his floating city design.
Now he is no different from crossing a river with a touch of stones. He can only create infinite possibilities through his own limited imagination in this magical world.
Fortunately, since he appeared in the main material world, he has been planning in his mind how to build a building that can float in the sky and allow ordinary civilians to live a stable life, and can also travel through various planes. Even without any magic protection, he can withstand the attacks of high-ring spells with his own defense.
Moreover, as a time traveler and having witnessed the development of modern technology, it is not impossible for Brian to apply this knowledge to the construction of a floating city.
For example, the real-world aircraft carrier, when the floating city is built, it can completely convert the Haruha sky ship into a fighter-type structural technology, and then assist the floating city in long-range or cross-plane bombing missions during combat.
Recalling his thoughts about the floating city and his future plans in his mind, Brian and the old dragon turtle guided the peaks taken from the Enoak Desert to the half-plane of the Eye Demon.
Since it takes a lot of time to build a floating city, in order to complete its own floating city as quickly as possible, Brian almost didn't think much about it and chose a semi-plane with a time ratio of 1:5 to the main material world.
In this way, the two years outside are equivalent to about ten years of a semi-plane.
Ten years have been enough for Brian to build a satisfactory floating city.
The moment the mountain descended to the half-plane, Brian saw that Myrcella and Aladd, the elder of Harua, had been waiting for a long time.
He had just put this mountain that was comparable to a city on the ground smoothly, and the owner of this semi-plane symbolic sense, "Observer Eye Demon", was the first to fly over excitedly.
"Bryan, what are you doing?" The Observer Eye Demon waved his tentacles like a snake, exclaiming, "What are you doing when you put such a mountain in Victor's world?"
"Build a floating city." Brian replied casually and walked towards the crowd.
He has already completed the most basic mountain in the floating city. Next, he needs to make detailed division of labor for his existing personnel and let them all devote themselves to the construction of the floating city.
"Who are you coaxing?" Victor caught up with Brian's footsteps, and used one of the small eyes on his tentacles to look at the mountain falling on the ground in the distance. His huge one-eyed eyes were full of doubt.
"Don't think that Victor has not checked the information of ancient Neseril. The floating cities that Victor has seen in the book, all of which are cut half from the peak and then put them upside down. It's not like you who relocated the entire peak like this."
"Oh, Victor understands!"
All the eyes of the Observer Eye Demon floated over the light without exception, floating excitedly beside Brian, turning around, "You must not have the ability to cut the mountain in half."
"Why don't you ask Victor for help when encountering such a problem?" He floated quickly in front of Brian, blocking his way, and chattered:
"As the most perfect creature of the great mistress, Victor only needs a dissociation ray of Victor, which is like cutting watermelon, and is cut in half by Victor."
"My floating city is different from the ancient floating city." Brian said to the Eye Demon, "So, you, the most perfect creature, don't bother with you."
He really did not intend to build a floating city like the great arcane of the Naserel era. In his plan, he was going to start a crazy infrastructure model based on this mountain.
In addition to completely preserving the earth energy of the mountain and allowing it to have a system of autonomous circulation of natural energy, all other extra mountain peaks need to be transformed.
While the transformation, a large amount of metal materials and obsidian combined with the mountains should be used to build a perfect foundation.
This is like expanding many wide floating platforms around an island, building towers and houses on it, and then these platforms are connected by various bridges. The peaks as the floating foundation, which is Brian's base camp and the most core power and secrets, are located at the center of the floating platform.
It is precisely because of his long-term plan for the floating city that he plans to start construction in the semi-plane with slow passage of time.
Of course, there is another function, which is the confidentiality of building floating cities in semi-planes.
After saying that, Brian ignored the Eye Demon and accelerated his pace toward Myrcella and others.
"It's good that you know." Hearing Brian's praise, the Eye Demon nodded in a deep opinion but narcissistic way, and then quickly caught up with him like a cannonball that was out of the air, and then said:
"So you are planning to build a floating city here. No wonder you send so many people to Victor's world. Since that's the case, Victor also wants to participate in the construction of the floating city. Brian, what kind of work do you plan to arrange for the most perfect creation of the Great Mission?"
"What kind of job will I arrange for you?" Looking at the very active observer Eye Demon, Brian was about to say, "If you don't make trouble for me, it will be the greatest help to me." He suddenly remembered a wonder he had seen in the dark area: the Great Destruction Field.
The Great Destruction Field is a large crack composed of countless tunnels and caves.
This is not caused by natural factors, but a group of idle eye demons who release radial rays to the rocks in the dark area every day when they have something to do or not.
As time goes by, this group of cracks and tunnel mazes, known as the largest dark area, was born dramatically.
Looking at the volunteer observer Eye Demon, Brian suddenly had a new idea in his heart.
"Of course." He smiled and thought for a while. When he came to Mycera and others, he said to Victor, "I really have a good job here for the most perfect creation of the Great Mission."
"What job?" Victor was obviously inimmunized to Brian's praise and asked hurriedly, "What kind of job is most suitable for the most perfect creature Victor, the Great Mission."
"Did you see that mountain?" Brian pointed to the mountain that he placed smoothly on the ground and said to the Eye Demon, "Your task is to use your dissociation rays to dig out the most perfect magic array and carving inside the mountain."
After saying that, he pointed to Victor, and the Halua wizard Arad next to him said:
"As for how to proceed, you just need to do it as he told you. In this way, after the floating city is completed, whenever the world looks up and sees the most perfect creation of the Great Mission and the most outstanding work it has made, they will involuntarily sigh and praise."
No matter what kind of eye demon it is, their rays are almost unlimited, not to mention that this is an observer eye demon with a strong strength to the legendary realm.
So in Brian's opinion, the other party is simply a natural sculptor. As long as he is coaxed, he can fully undertake the carving of most of the magic circles in the floating city.
In this case, the casters responsible for the magic circle only need to polish the eye demon after the dissociation of the rays, which is still very obvious to improve work efficiency.
"No problem, just leave this matter to Victor with confidence." The Observer Eye Demon patted his head with his tentacles and said confidently.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to pull Master Arad and ask him to arrange work for himself.
Brian and Arad looked at each other and told Arad through voice transmission that he had arranged a task of polishing the edges of the mountain for the Eye Demon, and the other party was happily busy at his work.
Send the naughty eye demon away, Brian stood in front of everyone, and began to assign them one by one the tasks they were responsible for.
Among the people responsible for building the floating city this time, the main ones were the Halua wizards led by Arad. The quality of these mages with a number of about 1,000 is quite good.
Among them, there are 18 fourth-level spell casters, about 120 third-level spell casters, and about 300 second-level spell casters. Most of the others remain at about 3 levels and have the ability to release the second-level spell.
Seriously speaking, Master Halua is the main force built in the floating city.
It was precisely because of this factor that Brian spared no expense to allow the elder Arad, the Harua, to surrender to his command.
Among these costs, in addition to agreeing to go with Arad to explore a lost temple in the ancient jungle of Chult at some time in the future, he also promised a magical artifact called the "Forgotten Scepter" exclusive to the casters of the Necrotic School.
Although the price of this short check seems to be very high, Brian feels that it is all worth it. After all, Arad is still a key figure in whether he can successfully enter the Halua Elders Council.
Of course, in addition to the mages of Halua, craftsmen from other races also participated in these people.
In order to have a perfect underground secret room inside the floating city, Brian directly requisitioned nearly 500 gray dwarves from the Royal City of Audus.
Their main task is to create an underground world comparable to surface buildings in the interior of the floating city.
The people responsible for the surface buildings are mountain dwarves from the Sunset Mountains and some golden dwarves from the Hurek Forest, as well as a small number of stone giant priests, whose numbers combined are about 600 people.
The tasks of these surface dwarves and stone giants are mainly responsible for the construction of the surface, as well as the use of obsidian and various metal materials based on the peaks to create a solid foundation and a floating platform surrounding the floating city like a small island.
As for the small number of mages recruited by the wizard tower of Mokou Town, in addition to enchanting every piece of building materials in the floating city, they also used spells to assist the craftsmen in their work.
"The knowledge of "Rafe Cypress: Weaving Locks" is taught by Ms. Polaris, and you must have mastered it thoroughly." Before leaving, Brian explained to Master Arad again, "Then your task is to develop a complete set of protective barriers for the Floating City, there is no problem."
"Of course there is no problem with this." said Master Arad:
"I have mastered the mysterious locks and protective barriers of the Naserel period, and it can be seen from it that most of these mysterious lock knowledge are learned from the elves' knowledge of the elves and then studied based on the elves' scroll. If you can obtain the elves' knowledge of the elves', you may be able to further enhance the power of the barrier."
After listening to Master Arad's analysis, Brian pondered for a moment and looked at the mage, "Don't worry, I will find a way to get the knowledge of the elves' mysterious locks."
For Brian, there are two channels to obtain the knowledge of the Elf’s Lock. The first is Silver Moon City, and the second is Mis Zhuono.
This was not a difficult task for him, it was just a matter of time.
"Then I have no problem." Master Arad seemed to have guessed that Brian would answer this long ago. He nodded, then leaned over and saluted slightly, turned around and left.
Looking at the busy crowd and running towards the mountain, Brian couldn't help but smile and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
Among the workers responsible for building the floating city this time, the casters are the most motivated.
Because Brian assured them that from the moment the floating city is built successfully and ascended to the sky, all the mages involved will become the first permanent residents of the floating city.
Moreover, he promised them that he would provide resources to build his own mage tower in the floating city for all casters who have reached the fourth level model and have successfully mastered the Nine-ring spells.
After all, a complete floating city battle fortress and a fully functional mage tower are indispensable.
In Bryan's impression, Saruk Witch, one of the three major creator races, has a very famous city: the ancient city of Oleme.
This ancient city existed in an era forgotten by history and was also called the "City of Thousand Towers". It is said to be a city composed of more than a thousand mage towers.
Asindo, the prophet of the earth, lived in seclusion in the ancient city of Oleme. As long as the ghost prince Brenas finds the trace of the prophet of the earth, it is possible to find this ancient city.
After arranging the construction of the floating city, Brian left with Myrcella.
He did not let Myrcella participate in the construction of the floating city because she had more important things to do.
That is the research on magic engines and elemental furnaces. If these two studies have not made any progress, floating city relying solely on the energy support of the semi-plane is not a long-term solution at all.
After returning to his semi-plane study, Brian explained several important matters to Myrcella, then acted as the boss and devoted himself to his magic research.
