Getting a Technology System in Modern Day

printraction [  ; ) New word I came up with combining construction and printing into one]

Few minutes before the weapons demonstration was set to begin.

Nova had been observing Aron’s meeting with John. The moment John asked if Aron was prepared for what he had planned to do in order to instill respect and patriotism within the former soldiers who were on the verge of causing trouble, Nova immediately got to work while Aron assuringly answered John that he would be ready in time and John should be preparing for the first batch consisting of five thousand members that they will be sending, as requested by Aron.

At the Fusion reactor site.

Nova immediately checked the stock of new materials that had been continuously sent to the island since day one and haven’t stopped yet.

And noticing that the stock seemed sufficient enough for her to begin working with the next phase of the construction on the island, she immediately got to work.

She initiated the phase by increasing the energy production of the fusion reactor once again, as the printer came to life and started disintegrating the containers that were about to fill the warehouse to the brim.

Hundreds of containers started disappearing at once and in their exchange, massive machines with tracks were being printed. This continued until all the containers within the warehouse were gone, now in their place stood a massive array of similar tracked machines, which wasted no time and immediately left the printer.

After they left the printer, about ten among these hundred printed tracked machines headed towards the fusion reactor which at the moment, although was not completely covered underground, still looked shabby and the few machines that arrived there were responsible for solving that.

These machines immediately set to work and started printing a building, which upon its completion would be standing on top of the reactor and will be serving as the main control room for the reactor. Here scientists and other personnel responsible for monitoring the reactor will be stationed.

Meanwhile, the remaining hundreds of machines were heading to a large patch of forest, dividing themselves into smaller groups and going to different parts of the forest, however, if one looked at them from a bird’s point of view, they would discover that they had aligned together, forming a square, covering a distance of ten kilometers from all sides.

Immediately after making this formation, the machines started their work as they started sinking into the ground, continuing to do so until they reached a depth of sixty-four meters, after which they stopped sinking further and then started moving sideways, disintegrating the soil that came in their direction as they moved ahead, followed by the disintegrating of the trees on top of this soil and storing the atoms of these trees and soil in their containers while at the same time straightening and strengthening the ground as they passed while printing the stored solids within the ground, compacting it and making it the strongest it might have ever been.

With hundreds of these machines acting in synchronous motion, the digging, straightening and strengthening of the ground went pretty quickly, resulting in the task being completed in a matter of two hours, leaving behind a perfectly measured square hole that was sixty-four meters deep and ten kilometer in length on all it’s four sides, a pretty massive task that would have taken humans months to complete to the desired perfection.

However, after doing their task, the machines didn’t leave the hole since they had completed only the first phase of their task and were merely waiting for their next order to continue their work.

A few seconds later, they entered an idle mode, then some new vehicles arrived before stopping right where the hole began and then started dropping the atom storage containers one after the other into the hole. The machines in the hole did nothing other than wait for the whole process to be completed before they could continue with their work.

After dropping about tens of thousands of atom storage containers, the machines that were dropping them stopped and left the vicinity, before returning back to where they had come from.

With their retreat, the machines on the ground sprang back to life as they made their moves. One by one, they started collecting the containers before loading the atoms inside of them into themselves, disintegrating the container carrying the atoms immediately after and repairing any damage caused by them after being dropped from the height of sixty-four meters.

Now that all of the atoms in the containers were being loaded into the machines and the containers were disintegrated, the vehicles immediately started phase two of the construction which was the laying of the foundation.

With all the machines working in unison, they started printing a meter-thick foundation on top of their previously strengthened ground which took them about half an hour to finish, leaving behind a smooth, solid base at the bottom of the hole which was now completely filled with the printed material.

The machines then moved to the next step, printing columns to support the structure that would be printed at the top of these columns later on.

Hundreds of thick columns were now being printed on top of the already printed surface, reaching a height of about twenty meters from the base of the hole, which was about halfway to the surface before the machines came to a synchronized halt, allowing the columns to take shape.

They then continued printing, but this time it was done sideways, now slowly but surely they were completing the construction of the bottom-most basement floor which now had a ceiling that was at a height of twenty meters, pretty large for such a wide floor.

When the floor construction was completed, the machines seamlessly returned back to printing another stretch of columns, once again not taking a pause until they had reached a height of another twenty meters from the surface of the new floor, before immediately moving ahead to print the ceiling for this new floor.

They then repeated this same process for the third time, in which similar to before the columns were raised for twenty meters before printing a ceiling which was now exactly rested on the surface, forming a perfectly flat top.

With the lowermost foundation being one meter thick reducing the depth of the hole to sixty-three meters and the three ceilings, each being a meter in thickness, this further reduced the depth hole to zero, leaving behind a three-floor basement.

However, the machines didn’t stop there. Some of them started printing new columns while others started printing walls for the massive building that was being constructed.
