The Greatest Architect

92. Skywalker Legs (2)

“Hnng!”

Kuaang!

Volcanic eruption skill was fierce.

Magna produced in the belly of the droplet was crushed.

It erupted into millions of pieces of dust.

The 5 metre chubby droplet suddenly pushed away.

Toochem!

The droplet leaps.

I flew up from the towers west of the suspension bridge.

Suddenly, I swooped across the Magena River.

Such drops had thick chains on their mouths.

And the cable was attached to the chain.

Paaaaaaaah!

A chubby arrow with a rope.

No, the bubble that broke the chain flew a lot.

The elongated cable leading the droplet draws a clear line over the 238-metre wide Magena River.

Then they swarm towards the top of the east tower.

It's a natural place to get bubbles (?) The cushion was waiting.

“Po-dong! Po-dong! ”

A 10-metre puddle stands on both feet.

I stretched my arms wide and pulled out a mulberry belly.

I couldn't even hold my breath.

Soon, a bubble flew in and collided.

Tuoyong!

The blob's round head is buried deep in his belly like an arrow.

However, Podong's ship was protected by several layers of structure.

Fleece like cotton absorbs the power of the first collision.

A second wave of thick leather blocks the damage.

The fond belly dispersed the rest of the impact.

Podong moves his arms.

I grabbed the bobble as it ricocheted.

I hugged him and rolled him, pledging not to miss.

At the end, I met the black eyes of two illusions.

“Podong?”

“Droplets!”

“Podo-dong?”

“Drop!”

We checked each other's generosity.

It bloomed with a sunny smile.

After that, Xaviel moves quickly.

“Now!”

Lloyd's voice flying from across the street.

In that shout, you reach out and grab the chain.

It was a chain that the droplet bites over.

Cards!

The chains and the connected cables held off.

Manahart and all three Mana Circles.

“Hehe!”

Couddeuk!

Podong and the bubble came running.

We caught him together.

Hang on. Pull.

I pulled, I grabbed.

Finally, the cable at the end of the chain is caught in your grasp.

At that moment, I turned around. I was carried over my shoulder. On foot. Forward. Approaching target.

There is a socket for connecting the cable to the top of the tower.

“Put it in!”

The end of the cable was pushed into the socket with Lloyd's shout.

Queek, queek! Queek!

The cables and sockets fit tightly, as if they were cut with a ruler.

Right after I checked it, I turned the socket. Locked.

The cable was securely fastened.

However, Xaviel was not relieved.

I turned my head quickly. Across the river, you look around the west tower. I saw Lloyd.

Then I could keep it in my eyes.

“…… Success! ”

Lloyd waves his arms toward you.

You hear a slightly panting cry.

The cable over there seems to have finished the connection as well.

“Phew.”

After the most dangerous and trivial process, Xaviel sighed for relief.

Lloyd is fine, too.

That's all I need.

After that, the complex process continued.

I was barely able to attach the main cable.

In the warming sun, two films of space-time unfolded.

The main cable was also connected to the back of the tower. Each behind the tower was secured to a landward anchorage.

Afterwards, a suspension made of chains was installed.

If the main cable between the towers was a clothesline, the suspension would look like dozens of strands of half-string dropped vertically on the clothesline.

In the process, Podong played a big role.

In conclusion, Podong was a master of rope climbing.

He rode the main cable as big as 10 meters.

It was fundamental to run the floating cable as flat as the ground.

Hanging around was also free material.

Sometimes I slipped with my belly full.

“Podo-dong!”

A lot of suspension material was hung and fastened onto the cable, freely slinging on the cable every day.

As soon as the suspension installation was finished, the biggest work remained.

It was to put up the top plate of the bridge and connect it.

To do that, Lloyd first floated the top plate into the river.

“Thank goodness. ”

“Good for you, what? ”

Wells Corgidus, a dwarf craftsman, looks up at Lloyd.

Loyd smiles with a satisfactory smile.

“The bridge stand I ordered. The structure of the trusses is much stronger than I expected. ”

“That's what I call it. Someone made it.”

“Of course, you are the best craftsman, Corgidus. ”

“You, flattery. ”

Corgidus snorts.

“But you arrogant man. What are you going to do from now on? ”

“What are you going to do? ”

“That one. ”

Corgidus points to the river with his jaw.

There was a large raft floating in the river.

And on the raft was a portion of the bridge top, a massive metal truss structure.

It followed the question of cogydus.

“I thought you were going to connect that to the suspension up there today. ”

“Yes, I did. ”

“By the way, it's nice to have floated it in the river. How are you planning to get it up there? ”

“Oh, that. ”

The questioned Lloyd smiles in relief.

“There is a way. It's a Jack Up Down hypothesis technique, and I'm going to try to adapt it to my situation. ”

“Jack-up down? ”

“Yes.”

“What is that? ”

“Well, let me put it this way…… oh, let's just see. ”

“What?"

Lloyd just chuckles.

I was a little embarrassed to explain it to the people here.

However, it could not be said, ’It was used to build the Busan Mineral Bridge.'

So I just shrugged.

Of course, it became more complex in cogydus' head.

‘Jack-up down or something. How are we supposed to lift that thing? ’

I couldn't understand.

It was because he knew better than anyone the size of the Truss Structural Bridge.

‘It took me four months to make six compartments, even though I had all the craftsmanship under him. It's really heavy. It weighs more than 100 tons, one block at a time. ’

But how do we get it from the raft to the height of the suspension?

It was a moment when the wrinkles of the craftsman's eyes deepened along with the question.

“Bo-glug-ug, ow! ”

Suddenly, you hear a roar in the middle of the river.

It was right after that.

Shoot me!

“Huh? The river is sucking in! ”

Suddenly, the river shook like the shout of a bystander.

He wants to make a whirl, but he shoots it at one point and gets sucked in.

It was as if a hole that was not there had appeared on the river floor.

Corgidus and the spectators soon witnessed.

The water-drinking hippopotamus under the raft!

“Hippo! Hippo! ”

Heave-ho! Heave-ho!

Haman exclaims and takes in the river.

One sip, two sips, and every time, his body was blown up like a balloon. It grew endlessly.

10 meters, 15 meters, 20 meters…….

Quadruple!

A raft is mounted on the back of a growing hammer.

“Hammam! Hammam! ”

The hammer's body became even bigger.

Even the raft on his back has risen to the top.

50 meters, 60 meters…… As soon as the lower body finally grows to 70 meters, Lloyd sends a signal.

“Haman, stop! ”

“…… hope? ”

“Can you stop drinking the river for a second? ”

“Hippo or Hippo? ”

“I'll get you another drink later! ”

“Howl!”

…… and the hammer stopped at 70 meters. Thanks to this, the bridge top plate on his back was fixed at a height of 48 meters from the river's surface.

The height was exactly the same as the point where the tip of the suspension material was dropped.

Lloyd shouts.

“Come on, let's go! ”

I led the waiting workers over to the bridge top.

I connected dozens of suspension materials into pre-made sockets all over the plate.

If I connected the top one block, I repeated the same process.

“Howl!”

The smaller one grows again, pushing up the next block.

Above, Lloyd, Xaviel and the workers connected the plates to the suspension. Linked joint joints that I had ordered beforehand were also connected between the top plate and the top plate. The fiery flames created by the wizards replaced the welding process.

It continued for several days.

Finally, you finish the connection of the last plate.

Heave-ho!

The moment the final suspension is inserted into the socket.

A clear message appeared before Lloyd's eyes.

Ding-dong.

[Construction of the suspension bridge in Magenta is complete.]

[You have successfully completed the construction of the first large suspension bridge in the history of the continent.]

[This new type of bridge will be loved by the king as well as by the citizens. In addition, it will be called the LoyHarvey Bridge after the Constructor and his handsome knight.]

[The LoyHarvey Bridge will also become the new landmark of Magenta.]

[Your name, which built the LoyHarvey Bridge, is engraved in the history of civil engineering in kingdoms and continents.]

[Bonus based on significant construction achievements, a large amount of RP will be awarded.]

[You got 850 RP.]

[Current RP: 3,019]

No, thank you.

A happy message to remind you of your accomplishments.

A joyful RP message whenever you hear it.

Seeing that, Lloyd smiles brightly. I felt it.

The long Hybrid Construction ended successfully.

Also, he thought.

Achievement RP is just the beginning.

The reward for blowing up the boat is real now.

“Jim Alicia Termina Magentano declares: ”

Kuang! Kuang!

The king, Alicia's quiet voice echoes loudly.

It wasn't a loudspeaker magic to raise your voice.

She was a sorcerer.

The skill of amplifying Mana in his own voice could be practiced freely.

A voice that resonates like that.

Every time one of those words falls, 20 magically controlled golems move frantically.

Ten of them entered from the west and east of the LoyHarvey Bridge, respectively.

You march towards the center of the bridge.

Kuang! Kuang!

The bridge top was shaken with every heavy step.

However, the bridge did not collapse.

Rather, I was more flexible and sturdy.

Twenty golems gathered at the center of the bridge.

Until then, 'Roy Harvey Church’ still boasted.

Kuang!

Twenty golems have stopped.

You plucked behind the king standing on the middle of the bridge.

A joyful smile rises from the mouth of King Alicia.

“Jim himself gives the title of 'honor’ to Lloyd Frontera, who built such a strong and beautiful bridge. ”

Whoa!

Hundreds of innocent pigeons embroidered the sky.

Citizens gathered along the river to rejoice.

The old bridge was unsettling to them.

Every spring, I was anxious to collapse into the flood.

Especially since there was a rift this spring.

The bridge you have to use to get across the river.

Every time I crossed, I was nervous.

I was afraid that it would suddenly collapse without warning.

Nevertheless, I had to cross because I had to eat and live.

But now I don't have to feel anxious.

Beautiful new suspension bridge.

Lloyd Harvey was safe for them to see.

There were no bridges that seemed to be hanging from the clothesline, and there were no bridges in the river.

Therefore, I believed that the fierce flood would not be affected by it.

It was the same now.

Twenty golems march and gather in the center. However, my legs did not sag or sag at all.

“Lloyd! Lloyd! ”

Lloyd's name was mixed with the cheers of the citizens.

The voice that accompanied the name grew louder and louder.

Finally, in one voice, the stiff-necked citizens exclaimed as one.

Before the celebration of the completion of the suspension bridge, it was a voice of the utmost respect and gratitude that citizens can express in honor of the person who built them a safe new bridge.

Thanks to you, Lloyd shrugs.

‘Whew.'

Does it feel like this to be a world class star?

A situation in which his name resonates throughout the city.

My heart thumped even though it was unrealistic.

Since then, various compliments of the king continued.

Multiple rewards also led to biennial sausages.

You have been paid immensely.

It was the remuneration of the baron's debts.

It was awarded as a bonus to a lifetime annuity.

‘All right, all right. ’

Where is the reward more than money in the world?

Throughout the ceremony, Lloyd held his fist tightly.

I was sweating in my closed fist.

I was proud.

I was thrilled.

It's been a year and a half since I came here as Lake Kim.

Pay back the debt you've been longing for.

It's finally come true.

‘Now, when I get back to the Baron, I'll live my whole life sucking honey. ’

Finally paying off the debt.

Annuities suck in this country.

You're a country noble, so you're not at risk of getting caught up in a giant reverse monument.

Live a peaceful life there, like a bee.

Lloyd gets wet in a happy mood.

So now we only have one problem to solve.

A few months ago, I snuck Julian out of the Academy. Only then can we truly return to the baron.

That's how Lloyd timed it.

I looked into the king's eyes.

I quickly knelt on one knee.

After the ceremony, he spoke in a mournful tone towards the king who had come down from the stage.

“Your Majesty, first of all, I thank you for your hospitality with the Hahae. Apart from Haona and him, there is something that Lloyd Frontera would like to urgently extend to His Majesty. ”

“Excuse me?”

The king who was leaving the arena stopped.

Her gaze returning this way.

“I don't want to hold Jim against him. Something.”

There you go.

I'm in.

Feeling that, Lloyd smiles down his head.

It is finally earned the title of renown.

We also have the king's favor and credibility.

I mean, right now is the time.

“It's no different, the University of Magenta, which you personally sponsor, has continued to carry out some very uncouth, irrational, and despicable acts. I wonder if you are aware of this situation. ”

“... What? There's a bunch of crap going on at the Academy that Jim doesn't know about? ”

“I'm afraid so, Your Grace. ”

The sad voice of Lloyd.

Secretly meaningful smiles on your lips.

Finally, the reaction I was waiting for came back.

“Tell me more. ”

Since then.

Those who trusted their families and installed them at the Academy.

Academy officials advocating and covering it.

To crush them with no excuse.

Lloyd's filamentous tattletale began by pressing only the facts like a stuffed eggplant.
