Chapter 2795: Chapter 1197: Full Fermentation (Part 2)

"Okay." The Legendary Arcanist wasn’t one to beat around the bush and agreed readily.

This collaboration was undeniably dreamlike.

Legendary Arcanist Philancy possessed ample capability.

Lord Virginia had rich technology and experience.

The Mesnoel Ruler’s Tower also had abundant energy.

But when it came to actual implementation, they discovered a multitude of technical challenges that needed overcoming.

The top priority was reverse-engineering the Dragon Oak Acorn Tree, copying its magic formula to the Tower of Dominion, turning it into a dream signal tower directly connected to the Dragon Oak Dream Realm. 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

Another method was like the Mushroom People, who inherently possessed their own dream realm strong enough to interface with the Dragon Oak Dream Realm.

Although Philancy had her own personal dream, integrating it prior to building the engineering dream wasn’t very meaningful and carried the risk of drawing attention from the Nightmare Demiplane, making it not worth the trouble.

After a round of discussions, everyone thought it prudent to adhere to a gradual approach.

Waiting until the Legendary Arcanist’s engineering dream reached a certain level of maturity, then connecting to the external network from the local area network when necessary wasn’t too late.

After all, they had the advantage of time, everything was in a phase of upward growth, and there was no rush.

With the wave of resource integration following Gaven’s return, the entire domain of Zalanda seemed injected with new vigor, with development speed described not only as terrifying but as progressing by leaps and bounds.

The greatest manifestation was naturally in road construction.

They subsequently decided on as many as three roads, mostly centered around Darama City.

The first highway was named Dasawei Highway, with a total planned length of three hundred and ten kilometers.

It starts south of Darama City, heading northwest, crossing the Suldaskan River, traversing the entire Samis Hills, and penetrating deep into the Verdas Forest.

The road spans three types of terrain, with one-third on the alluvial plains, the middle third in the complex and changing hills, and the final third located in the Verdas Forest.

Its economic strategic value was the highest among the three roads.

It linked the humans from Darama City, the Demi-Humans and Gnomes of the Samis Hills, and the Elves of the Verdas Forest, facilitating exchanges among them.

It’s entirely predictable that once this road is opened, it will become extremely busy and bring changes and impacts on the residents of the three areas.

The initial construction period for this road was eight months, divided into three segments for simultaneous construction.

The section from Darama to Samis Hills was the simplest, mainly dominated by the alluvial plains, which they had accumulated a lot of experience during the Conqueror Path.

The construction machinery dragged by the Enlightened Treants, combined with a large amount of human and material resources, and properly using spells as assistance, would make the paving speed soar.

How fast it would be depended on the amount of human and material resources invested.

This construction task was undertaken by the city’s road-building team in Darama City.

Like the Conqueror Army migrating and building roads simultaneously was a special product of special circumstances.

Now, this is the true return to the road-building model.

They sought the optimal solution between efficiency and cost.

Using magic and Divine Arts extensively would greatly enhance efficiency but also significantly increase the cost.

The price disparity between mundane and magical was severe, almost like two different systems.

Take the Fifth Ring Spell Stone to Mud as an example; its usage cost could employ hundreds of adult laborers for a whole day.

If simply opening stone, one Fifth Ring Spell couldn’t compare to the labor results of hundreds of adult laborers in a day.

This relationship wasn’t fixed but continued to change as the times progressed.

Currently, magic costs far exceed manual labor costs because the overall societal education level is low, resulting in a low number of spellcasters and poor productivity, among other issues.

As society develops and education is massively popularized, the number of spellcasters starts to gradually increase, magic costs will slowly be lowered, and manual labor costs will gradually rise.

The building teams naturally had professionals controlling this aspect.

These professionals were none other than the believers of the Wealth Goddess Woken.

In Felen, they were the best candidates for accountants, capable of squeezing two uses out of one Gold Coin.

Don’t misunderstand, they weren’t miserly; they were experts at using money to generate money.

Woken’s Temple of Wealth in Felen acted as the initial bank, already possessing a series of business operations such as deposits, loans, and Gold Coin issuance.

The scale was relatively small, and the temple itself was quite cautious and prudent, only conducting business with prominent families and large guilds, like loan services, which rarely involved individuals.

This was only normal, as these financial operations were also a result of the era’s development.

How could a primitive society with minimal surplus value have a bank or involve financial dealings?

These believers of Woken joined Gaven’s ranks, as it was only natural.

Although Gaven hadn’t brought the Wealth Goddess Woken home, her return to the Material Plane was no secret.

Throughout, Gaven hadn’t hidden traces of her.

As the mass issuance of Gods Coin began, and they were first used in Darama City, many sharp-nosed believers of Woken smelled the opportunity and sought them out.
