The best territory designer of all time - Episode 150
150fury. Construction guidelines (2)
“A long time ago, when a stone ice storage facility was built in an orc village. I remember the warlock we killed together back then.?”
A question came from Lloyd..
Javiel nodded..
“yes, i remember.”
“I also remember bringing the magic ingredients that the warlock had gathered back then.?”
“Yes, of course.”
“There was something interesting among the things I got there. this. By injecting mana, you can create an illusion in the air.?”
Lloyd in the tunnel stretched out his hand..
I saw a round medal held in his hand..
“So, did you use that medal to draw this cube of light drawn in the ground??”
“uh. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to draw the blueprint in the ground like this when doing construction in the future. Make workers work comfortably.”
“That's an interesting feature..”
“yes? I’m also amazed. There are even more interesting features. Would you like to take a shovel somewhere and dig it out? Just one shovel.”
“Anywhere??”
“uh. anywhere.”
“…….”
Javiel looked at Lloyd blankly..
I glanced at the medal he was showing me..
Could know.
It is true that that medal is a magic item..
But the blue lines and planes of light carved into the ground.
It's Lloyd's lie that he drew this with that medal..
“…….”
Should I just pretend not to notice this time?.
Javiel thought for a moment and picked up a shovel..
Following Lloyd's instructions, a part of the wall inside the cubic tunnel was dug out..
A large scratch was engraved on one side of the cube that had been made straight along the lines and planes of light..
Then a change occurred.
pibit!
With a sharp sound, the color of that side changed to red..
Lloyd’s whining words continued..
“Did you see it? If there is a difference between the design and actual construction, the worker will be notified immediately..”
“then…….”
“Workers can immediately tell on site that errors have occurred in construction..”
“It sounds like the slacking of work is over..”
“Instead, they provide ample welfare.?”
Lloyd had a wicked business owner-like smile on his face..
Guideline options gained by increasing your design skill level.
I wondered how it would be applied in reality..
But when I tested it in practice,?
It was truly a hit..
‘This is a 3D version of the completely designed floor plan displayed in the ground. This is a version that reports construction errors in real time..’
No matter how hard you design.
No matter how much effort and meticulousness you put into it,.
If the workers on site mess up, the construction will go to waste..
It was a common occurrence in the field to ignore the design details or proceed with construction even if there were slight errors because they were considered inconvenient..
Because field work is ultimately done by people..
‘But that is prevented. Any errors in construction are clearly visible through the color..’
In addition, the reference point and error rate at which the guideline turns red could be arbitrarily specified..
In other words, if you have this option, you don’t have to worry about precise construction..
This is especially true for construction that requires precision, such as this major sewer..
‘Moreover, the lie about it being a magic item seems to work in general..’
Fortunately, it seems that Javiel's suspicions have been avoided..
So that's enough now.
Now, it was time to start construction of the main sewage system in earnest..
♣
The start of construction went smoothly..
“Now, I believe everyone knows what to do first..”
Near the village at the center of the territory selected as the first excavation site..
At that scene, Lord Bavaria's solemn speech began..
“We completed various construction projects under the guidance of Lloyd Frontera. He built numerous ondol rooms, turned the Marez wetlands into fertile farmland, and even laid a water supply system that extended from the lake in the high eastern mountains to the territory..”
Construction projects he and the Corps of Engineers have participated in so far.
A warm sense of pride appeared on Lord Bavaria's face as he mentioned that achievement..
“Is that all? Currently, a large group residential facility called an apartment building is being built according to Lloyd's design, and the slopes of the eastern mountains have been excavated and maintained throughout the winter to build numerous retaining walls and create fertile farmland. And now! We took up the shovel to create a new achievement that would surpass all previous projects..”
Pride appeared on the faces of the engineers listening to the speech..
Small embroidery on the chest of each person's work clothes. Each piece of embroidery represented the work done by the crew..
It was a medal for each engineer and a sign proving their seasoned experience..
“Yes. Today we will build a new history. According to Lloyd Frontera's design, for the future of the territory, and with our own honor at stake, we shout again today. Safety first!”
“Safety first! Oooh!”
Construction began with a powerful slogan..
Soldiers from the Engineer Corps took the lead..
Numerous refugees and residents volunteered for Lloyd..
A small number of experienced engineers led the field, and many refugees and local residents served as laborers..
In addition, Lloyd's newly acquired design options and construction guidelines enabled convenient and precise construction..
“Podo-dong! Podong-!”
Hobababababat!
Every time Podong twitched his huge buttocks, the ground was deeply dug..
So it's 4 meters wide and high.
A hole 5 meters deep was created..
There was a stir among the engineers and workers who were watching this..
“Hey, what on earth is that in the ground? I think I see a blue light.”
An old refugee muttered..
The engineer soldier next to him grinned..
“Oh, that one? These are the guidelines that Lloyd engraved into the ground..”
“guide… … line?”
“yes.”
“what is that?”
“They say that line tells you exactly where to dig in the ground and where not to dig..”
“Is that possible??”
“Well, since it is possible, we can see it like that. I'm not sure about the principle either. Anyway, he said that all you have to do is dig the ground and carry out construction while keeping the mark exactly..”
“Hehe, this is true. It's amazing.”
Corps of Engineers soldiers briefed on guidelines ahead of work.
Workers are amazed after hearing explanations from soldiers.
With everyone's attention gathered, the construction guidelines became clearer..
But it looked a little different than everyone expected..
It wasn't just lines and planes roughly drawn in the ground. It was not just a brief indication of the extent of digging..
A line delineating the area to be dug into the ground.
Location and range of bricks to be stacked inside.
The placement, depth, and thickness of the foundation to be placed beneath it..
It was as if the 3D blueprint itself had been drawn with blue lines and planes and clearly embedded in the ground as a three-dimensional hologram..
“That's a lot more detailed than I thought.?”
Workers stuck out their tongues as they faced details beyond imagination..
So everyone put in the work..
The vertical shaft dug by Podong was smoothened..
The central village of the territory.
Various sewage and excrement that will be discharged by the people living there..
It was a large sewage well that would take it and throw it away..
‘Well, it would be better if each household could directly dispose of sewage or sewage like a modern sewage system..’
The technical skills are too lacking for that..
There is not enough money, time, and manpower..
A wry smile appeared on Lloyd's face as he watched the construction in progress..
To be honest, I wanted to make a sewage system that was already made, if possible, as modern as the one in Korea..
The water used at home goes straight into the drain, and the water flushed down the toilet goes down cleanly. I wanted to make it possible for everyone to treat sewage without much effort or care..
‘But that's impossible here.’
To build a modern sewage system, every residential building must be connected to a sewer pipe..
But now the situation is?
If the winter cold hits right now, the Prona River will freeze. A large-scale infectious disease is expected to spread due to freezing river water and accumulating excrement..
Before that, the main sewer construction must be completed..
As a result, there was no time to build and connect sewer pipes to each household. It will take at least several years to build such a dense system..
That's why.
‘Just build a large sewage well in each village and region..’
Sewage and excrement from each home.
All you have to do is take them out and throw them into the sewage well..
All you have to do is let the abandoned sewage flow through the sewer pipe connected to the sewer well..
That was the core of the main sewer system that Lloyd was planning to build..
‘It takes less effort and time.’
For now, we are considering cost-effectiveness as much as possible..
With that motto in mind, Lloyd led and supervised construction..
Digging a vertical shaft to become a sewage well.
Laying the foundation of the bottom of the shaft.
It was finished with granite bricks and cement to prevent sewage and excrement from seeping into the basement..
A sewer pipe was connected there to drain the sewage..
5The ground was dug long in a certain path at a depth of meters..
A thick layer of sand and crushed stone was placed on the bottom..
A flat granite plate was laid on top of it..
This was to prevent leaching of contaminated sewage..
Cement was applied over the granite slab and granite bricks were placed together..
The bottom cross section of the sewer pipe is shaped like an inverted egg..
The inverted egg-shaped cross section, which narrows as it goes down, will help the sewage flow more smoothly by speeding up the flow..
The width and height of such a sewer pipe is exactly 2 meters..
To one side, a 60cm wide pedestrian path was set aside for people to walk..
The area where the sewer pipes were built was finished with granite bricks, waterproofed, and covered with soil..
We didn't forget to make manholes at regular intervals..
When problems such as sewage pipes were clogged or sewage leached occurred, it was a spiral staircase where people could safely descend for repairs..
It looked like the ‘Cholera Canal’, a sewage canal in Vienna, Austria..
Likewise, the sewage well of the village centered on the territory.
Sewage pipe leading from a sewage well.
It took a full 20 days to build the first section..
The construction didn't end there..
‘of course. This is just the beginning. We only built a sewage collection facility for one village. The main sewer we will build from now on is real..’
Each village and apartment complex.
Sewage and excrement that will collect through their sewage wells and sewers..
Construction has also begun on the main sewer channel that will drain all of this water to the outside of the territory..
It was the ‘extra large (XL) version’ of the Cholera Canal, a previously created sewer..
Even a special raincoat was mobilized for this construction..
“Bieberbung! Bibbeong-!”
Thump thump!
Bibyeong, who came down from the mountain after a long time, was excited..
I glanced at the bell on Lloyd's shoulder from afar..
With the excitement of first love,.
Before I knew it, my cheeks were turning red and my heart was pounding..
3I moved my front foot as hard as I could with 1,000 tons of pure power..
“Bibbeong!”
Kwaaang-! Kwakwang!
The ground was deeply dug up in an instant as if a large excavator was moving..
A long pit 20 meters deep and 20 meters wide was created..
As with the previous sewer pipe construction, engineers and workers were deployed..
A very large main sewer channel with a width of 10 meters, a walkway of 3 meters, and a height of 8 meters was dredged..
Such main sewers faced north.
Little by little every day.
The spring rain has stopped.
Sprouts are sprouting.
The frog cries loudly.
The rose has opened its first bud..
Just like that, after three months, the main sewer finally crossed over to the northern area of the territory..
“Now, you have to be careful from here on. Everyone will remember it. During the last Monster Domino incident, the group of mastodons that attacked our territory were swept in a certain direction.?”
“It's north!”
Soldiers from the Corps of Engineers answered Lloyd's question..
At that time, the incident of sweeping a herd of mastodons into the river and driving them north was still vivid in everyone's memory..
“okay. I'm glad you remember. As everyone knows, mastodons are strong animals. You won't die if you get swept away by the river. Of course, almost all of them would have survived even if they were washed up near here, and would have made this area their new habitat. In other words, we are now in Mastodon's territory and construction is underway..”
Lloyd's request to everyone continued..
“So everyone should be careful. Of course, since there is a cave here, I don't think mastodons will approach easily, but there's still something to be said for just in case. Even if everyone is taking a break, never stray far from the site, and if you happen to have to move too far, make sure to form a group of at least 10 people. Okay guys?”
“Yes, I understand!”
After giving the warning, work resumed immediately..
But it was a strange thing.
Despite all the careful precautions, no Mastodon was seen even after 10 days of crossing the northern border and continuing construction..
‘Whoa, shame on you. Did I give the speech for no reason?.’
Lloyd chuckled..
Mastodon guys, maybe they ran farther than we thought and settled down..
Or maybe they're scared by Bibungi's presence and don't even approach him?.
‘If that's the case, well, that's fine with us..’
The less you get involved with dangerous monsters, the better..
This is especially true in the current situation where noisy construction is taking place..
But it was around the time when Lloyd felt so relieved..
“Beebubung? Bibbeong!”
Bibyeong, who was digging the ground at the site, shouted loudly..
But the meaning of that cry was a little strange..
The guy said, ‘Here! 'Something came out!' was shouting.
‘hmm? something comes out?’
What is it.
Lloyd came out of his thoughts and went to the scene..
I looked at the direction Bibeong was pointing to..
Land that was being dug up.
under that pile of dirt.
At first glance, I saw a familiar silhouette..
“Mastodon?”
It was a corpse.
A dead mastodon was buried about 7 meters deep in the ground..
But the body was not badly decomposed..
It means he hasn't been dead for a long time..
‘what. But it is buried 7 meters deep.?’
Could it be that a landslide occurred and buried them?.
No, that couldn't have been possible..
‘This is flat land.’
So did the other mastodons bury their dead comrades frugally?.
‘No, not that either..’
Mastodon is a simple monster.
There is no such thing as intelligence enough to have burial customs..
But then something even more strange emerged..
“Bibbung? Beebubung?”
Bibiong, who was tilting his head, moved his front paws..
The side of the discovered mastodon carcass was carefully dug up..
Then another mastodon's body was revealed..
It didn't end there.
“what…….”
Wherever the fisherman dug, there was a mastodon corpse. Ten? Twenty birds? No, there were more than a hundred..
“Bitch! Beebubung?”
“Uh, um, I'm watching it too. The fact that they are buried neatly in rows, as if someone had buried them with care, also looks smart. What the hell is this…….”
What is it.
I didn't understand.
Even after tracing the contents of the novel Iron-Blooded Knight, I found it..
However, there was no mention of the mastodon carcass buried upright like this in the novel. However, an example similar to this is in the Namaran Wall episode where Javiel learned blasting.…….
It was then.
Put profit!
Numerous mastodon corpses found in the ground.
Suddenly, a strange and ominous sound began to be heard from among the piles of sheets..
