The Greatest Architect

46.How to Make Land (1)

“From today, we will turn this place into a fertile field. ”

“Frogs!”

All right. All right.

Lloyd's speech began.

Just as a frog in a swamp cries out loud,

However, 120 engineers gathered here, and no one laughed.

Is it because Sir Xaviel and Lord Bavaria, right next to Lloyd, are making a solemn expression?

Someone might have done it.

But not most soldiers.

‘What process is this construction going through? ’

Ondolbang.

Wrapping road.

Coal mine.

Some of them are stone glaciers.

Then the storage expansion and the Orc Miner's Quarry.

He was once just an ordinary soldier in an ordinary territory.

But it was different now.

They had already transformed into elite engineers who had been trained by numerous constructions.

So I was empirically aware of how important this speech was today.

‘Master Lloyd, this process is important to you. ’

Speech ahead of time.

There was no rhetoric.

There were no useless ambitions or politicians.

The speeches from Lloyd's mouth were tightly packed with only the stories the engineers needed.

“Now, let me start with the caution when working. This is the swamp. Don't move around by yourself. If you're unlucky, you're in trouble because you can't pull your foot out of the swamp. And what if it's that bad? There's reeds everywhere. I can't even see them. It's perfect for a sun-dried jerky. If you don't like it, we move in groups of two. Do you understand?”

“Yes!”

“Yes. Next watch out. It's hot. It's a marsh. It's humid. What is it this time? ”

“Take a break once an hour! ”

“That's right. And the other one? ”

“Salted water every break! ”

“Ding ding. Salt water will always be available in the workshop, so drink it. Don't choke on the beast just because you're thirsty. Ping, turn around and collapse? ”

“Hey, but what if the salt water is so thin that it doesn't taste good? ”

An engineer raises his hand and bites.

Seems like a rookie who has recently doubled the size of the engineering troops.

Lloyd smiles greedily as he looks at the new engineer.

“But you still have to drink, right? ”

“Do I have to drink it if I feel like I'm going to vomit? ”

“Yes. If I don't drink it and then fall down and blow it up, I'll deduct one day from the bonus. ”

“I understand!”

It's not cheap in front of the money.

Many soldiers volunteered to the Engineering Corps, especially looking for a thick bonus.

“And lastly, the most important point of concern. The water in the swamp here is for the Howlers to drink. So if you'll excuse me in the swamp because I want to rest while I work, I'll lock you up in jail. Toilets must be installed separately. Okay?”

“I understand!”

“Let's get started, then. Hamanna?”

“Howl!”

I pulled the hammer out of my chest.

The eyes of the engineers who had never seen Hawk flicker.

I think the young master has signed another summoner.

For a moment, the engineers were distracted.

Shortly thereafter, something shocking happened to the engineers.

“Hamann? Can I have some water here, please? ”

“Hippo or Hippo? ”

“Yes, you can drink it all. ”

“Howl?”

“Aha, after drinking? See that river stream over there? ”

“Hippo!”

“Yeah, just roll over there and spit it out. But don't spit it all at once. It's flooding downstream. ”

“Howl!”

As if you knew, you put your head down in the bog.

The bowl crashes its round head into the marsh water as if it was waiting.

Suction has begun.

“Hnng 48085;! Horolo! ”

Shhhhhhh!

The hammer draws water.

There is a vortex around you.

It's like a giant vacuum cleaner sucking water.

The surface of the marsh sank.

The hammer swells that much.

10 meters, 20 meters, 50 meters.

“…… Ugh. ”

It was the engineers who had retreated far away with Lloyd's instructions.

Their jaw screws were loosened.

The surprise didn't end here.

“Hmph 48085;!"

A massive whirlpool shifts.

It rolled into the stream that Lloyd pointed to.

It looked like a 50-meter water balloon was rolling.

He slowly spits out the water from there.

“Mmm-hmm! Oeeek!"

Quack quack!

Thousands of marsh troughs, frogs and aquatic creatures that had been inhaled by Hoang moved to the stream tributaries. It became a new city in the river ecosystem.

Since then, similar things have been repeated several times.

Inhale the water from the marsh.

It swells and rolls.

You spit the inhaled water into the stream.

“What am I looking at...? ”

Along with the dazed soliloquy of the engineers, the nearby water disappeared completely.

Of course, the whole marsh was not lost.

It was just that the water had been removed from the area nearby.

But it was enough to prepare for today's construction.

Lloyd's instructions have fallen.

“Listen up, shovel. ”

“Shovel!”

“From now on, I remove all remaining grassroots and rotten plant debris from the ground where I mark. Powerful start with relief. ”

“Oooh!”

Engineers have been deployed.

I sweated hard and shoveled.

I dug up and removed the rotten trunks and roots of all the remaining aquatic plants in the reservoir.

Lloyd also personally shoveled and led the troops ahead.

‘If you don't do this basic process properly, it is a good idea to leak and become poor later on in the shop. Heave-ho! "

If you build an empire, you can just build a mound by piling up the dirt. Many people think it is easy construction.

But the reality was different.

Simple, often seen in everyday life, banks also contained sophisticated science and engineering.

Just like playing with children's dirt piles, it wasn't just piling up a lot of dirt.

Especially now.

‘This is a wet fragile ring. ’

I definitely needed to clean up the ground, such as the trapezoids.

It was also necessary to remove the water beneath the ground to stabilize the ground.

“Xaviel?"

“Yes.”

Lloyd looks back at Xaviel.

Xaviel, who had heard what to do beforehand, stepped out.

I drew my sword.

You stabbed Lloyd's blade in succession to the ground marked.

Phew! Phew! Puak!

Conflicting Mana Circle.

The shock emanates from the sword.

I dug deep into the hierarchy vertically.

Later, vertical holes 50 centimeters in diameter and 10 meters in depth were carved throughout the wetlands at a distance of 4 meters.

Lloyd shouts.

“Lord Bavaria! ”

“I understand.”

Lord Bavaria grumbles at Lloyd's cry.

The engineers he commands make their move.

I brought a bamboo trunk that was cut evenly to 11 meters long.

Xaviel sprinkles a 10-meter vertical ball through the ground with a wave.

It was a kind of bamboo straw, pierced through the interior.

Then it was Podong's turn.

“Podong!”

“Pinlant!”

Podong, who was waiting, ran to shake his thick belly.

You pour out what was in both cheek pockets onto the ground.

“Peek, pew, pew!"

Aaaaah!

It was a large amount of sand collected by the river in advance.

“Engineering! Sandball to vertical! ”

“I've got orders! ”

The engineers who were waiting with shovels moved.

Podong hurls into the mountain of sand.

Sand was spread and placed in a vertical ball.

The sand pile, naturally centered on bamboo straws, filled the vertical ball.

‘Good, good, good. ’

The situation at the scene is chaotic.

Leading the whole process, Lloyd clenched his fist.

‘The Sand Drain (SD) technique is working as expected. ’

Vertical Drain Method.

It was introduced for the first time in 1936 and has been under construction in the late 1940s as a continental reform, with technical advancements taking place.

That is, by drilling a large number of artificial vertical holes between soft viscous earth surfaces and inserting the drainage material, it was considered a technique to facilitate the flooding and consolidation of the earth.

‘Of course, we couldn't use modern techniques as they were. ’

There was too little equipment to do that.

So I put on my own bald hair.

Xaviel's skill, Wave, excavated the Vertical Ball.

The Silver Hair Knight replaced the vibration-type sand drain construction equipment.

It was filled with pre-prepared bamboo straws and sand.

Mixed a reasonable sand drain and paper drain method.

And when Podong lost, he let him roll over.

“Podonga? Roll! ”

“Podong!”

The goal!

Dozens of tons of Podong rolled at random.

The load was applied to the hierarchy evenly.

It's like pressing a stack of towels soaked wet.

The moisture in the formation comes out.

You gather with a pile of sand planted in the ground.

Kug Drama...

The ground begins to sink slightly.

It has been a wetland for tens of thousands of years.

Over the years, enormous quantities of plants sank into the water and did not decompose properly.

The fibers were so turned on that they were thick and deposited.

The fibers contained a large amount of moisture.

It was made up of a soft layer called the peat layer.

But now, the carbon layer is under pressure and the moisture is forcibly escaping.

Dried sand piles planted evenly all over the place further propelled the drainage.

Cough...!

The peat layer was compressed as moisture exited.

The load itself clumps together and becomes stronger.

It was a smuggling event.

Lloyd further emphasized the phenomenon with the following instructions:

Do you like bamboo straws? ”

“Howl!”

“Would you like a drink? ”

“Hippo!”

The hammer that was waiting approached the bamboo straw planted all over the ground.

I drank the muddy water through the straw into the sand peg.

“Hehe 48085;! Hehe 48085;! ”

The water in the formation was drawn to the stream.

The hammer swells like a giant balloon.

That weight was added to the hierarchy again.

Smuggling was accelerated even more.

Around that time, Lloyd and the engineers entered the construction of the next course.

The empire was built around the entire marsh.

“Pudong! Spit it out! ”

“Phew! Phew! ”

Podong acts as a dump truck.

From time to time, I put a large amount of dirt in my cheek bag.

When the soil is spit out, the engineers follow Lloyd's instructions.

I was busy teasing the shovel and laid a solid foundation.

Of course, it was a pre-designed rescue by Lloyd.

‘Course, just piling up will erode the slopes, flush the slopes in the bank into leaks, or spill the dust into the pipes and sink the slopes. ’

All that will lead to the devastation of the Empire.

If the bank collapses, the water in the stream will be flooded.

The flooded water will turn the gazelles back into wet swamps.

Therefore, a meticulous design was necessary to prevent such a shitty situation where everyone's happiness index would draw a strong downward curve.

I made the steep slopes as smooth as possible.

The height of the embankment, namely the embankment, was as high as possible, taking into account the height of the ground to be squashed in the future.

There was a height difference between the front slopes that would block the water in the stream and the back slopes that would be placed at the junction.

I built up the side that would support the pressure on the backside slope.

I didn't forget to harden both sides of the slopes.

Thanks to this, Podong was busy rolling the slopes of the bank.

“Podo-dong! Podo-do-do! ”

The goal!

The body of the bulldozer rolling along the slope was the bulldozer or the vibrating roller itself. Afterwards, the engineers deployed the troops and planted them tightly in a tightrope up to the grass.

The grass roots grip the soil firmly as it slopes.

In the future, it would not be easy to pour vomit.

Finally, I dug thoroughly into the aqueduct for the drainage of the rainwater to come down on the bank.

It's been ten days since I've been so dependent on construction.

Finally, the construction of a district was completed.

‘Whew. Never mind. ’

Lloyd looks around as he wipes his sweat.

Ten days ago, there was no moist swamp that was full of myelins.

Now, his sights were filled with dry land and strong banks.

It was only then that the settlement and building of an area was completed.

Of course Lloyd didn't settle down here.

It was because it had a much wider area that had not yet been picked up.

“Keep moving! Bonus party when you're done! ”

With Lloyd's encouragement, the engineers deployed to the next district.

Marez marshes here are not entirely connected to one swamp.

A vast area called the marsh.

There are dozens of uneven swamps scattered among them.

So we were able to hold one swamp and divide it into sectors and zones.

In other words, modular construction was possible.

In addition, summer was dry in the region.

It hardly rained, but it only got sunny.

There was no such good weather for the marshland construction.

Thanks to this, the construction became more resilient.

“Be careful not to eat the heat! Take a break! Deploy Sector 3 with relief. ”

“Oooh!”

Lloyd and Xaviel.

Fantasy and engineering.

All of those workers were mixed.

Dig, drink, spit, spit, dip, stack, chop.

Everyone was familiar with the iterative process. Became proficient

At first, the construction period of a district that took ten days became shorter and shorter.

Ten days to Ahre, Ahre to Eight, Eight to Six.

It's been a month, two months, three months.

As everyone's forearms get tougher, the sanctuary grows longer.

Every time a drop of sweat flowed, the damp marsh became moist.

Marez Marsh was originally an abandoned land.

There were swamps everywhere.

A swamp filled with unnamed creatures.

Of course, it was impossible to build buildings or to farm.

A worthless land.

Land that cannot be developed.

Marez Marsh has been treated like a wasteland for generations.

It was before man first set foot on this earth.

Over tens of thousands of years.

That's why I thought it would be the same.

It's been abandoned so far, and it always will be.

The sun rises from the east and sets to the west.

But things are different now.

‘Lloyd changed this. ’

And the colonists.

The baroness and the baroness.

I was busy watching this amazing scene from time to time.

Useless marshes were turning into rice paddies and fields.

It was transforming in just three months, not decades.

Even the person who led to the miraculous change was with them.

‘Maybe we're witnessing some kind of miracle that we've never seen or imagined before. ’

Somehow.

Once again, the gaze of the members of the Territory has shifted.

It was a kind of admiration beyond favors.

Ding-dong.

[All members of the Baron Frontera are greatly impressed and respected by the magic miracles you have performed.]

[Bonus for this huge social achievement and a large amount of RP will be awarded.]
