Novel Full 182 Nova playing Sim City
A real-world day has passed since Aron had started showing John the weapons in the warehouse, meaning a total of fifteen days have passed in the universal simulation already.
During this period, Aron had demonstrated to John everything that was in the warehouse and even the experimental ones that were still under the process of research. This was then followed by him taking the soldiers to where they would be receiving their training after Aron called for them.
Meanwhile, Nova, who had just finished decorating and furnishing the building, shifted her focus to the decoration of the surroundings of the building.
She started doing so by building a large parking lot, immediately followed by building a massive park surrounding the building, ensuring that the atmosphere surrounding the building doesn’t appear to be mismatched, destroying its beauty.
She also followed by starting to build infrastructure leading to the building since one of the pipeline digging and one pipeline printing machine had also been working diligently as they were building a massive pipeline extending for kilometers, reaching to the ocean and connecting the building to the abundant water source.
Before the water was sent through the pipelines, the ocean water passed through a printer of sorts which wasted no time in removing all the salts and other impurities present in the water and then the filtered and pure water was sent down the pipeline, to be used by the facilities for their needs.
At the same time, the machine was also collecting and storing the deuterium atoms, which were retrieved and transported to the reactor after the atomic storage tank became full to be used as fuel for the fusion reactor. Tritium, on the other hand, was continuously being produced within the reactor through the interaction of neutrons with lithium, so it could be said that the future energy needs of the facility were being met by using the ocean.
Not stopping there with just the infrastructure projects, Nova moved on to construct a road which will be connecting different parts of the island. And instead of using the method of printing asphalt, she was employing a revolutionary method that could be considered almost magical.
The printer-like road making machine was disintegrating the sand below it and rearranging the atoms in a robust and rigid lattice structure. By arranging the silicon and oxygen atoms found in sand in a diamond-like lattice for the first layer, Nova was creating a highly robust and strong structure.
And since the machine was not just printing one layer, each layer was employed with a different means of strengthening the road in different ways.
With the first layer of the sand molecules (Oxygen and Silicon) being arranged in a Diamond-like Lattice Structure, the layer following that was arranged in a Hexagonal Close-Packed (HCP) Structure, where atoms were formed in a tightly packed layer in a hexagonal pattern. By using this configuration, Nova maximized the strength of the atomic bonds.
The following layer was made using Nanosheet Formation where nanosheets made of silicon dioxide were incorporated to provide additional strength and flexibility to the road, allowing the material to be able to withstand bending and deformation.
The layer after that added structural reinforcements, introducing structural reinforcements, such as dislocations or impurity atoms, to strengthen the material and prevent crack propagation. If that could even happen.
With all these meticulous processes, different layers were being used to make one thick material and were continuously printed on top of each other until a half-meter deep structure was materialized, taking its rightful place on the now strengthened ground.
Although the process might seem to have taken a long time for printing, the whole process had been done within microseconds, allowing the machine to print a twenty-meter wide road with a length of ten meters in a matter of ten seconds.
And with about ten more machines of about fifteen meters in length working along the first machine’s side, printing another road simultaneously for all the different directions, the entire island was becoming the first place to witness and receive the honor of having its atoms being disintegrated and rejoined to create a novel material that was deemed too good to be used as a road surface.
Thus, the world’s hardest, strongest, and most flexible road, destined to last for centuries without damage was born.
A middle finger to the Romans road engineers.
A similar but different thing was happening on the center of the wide roads that were being printed. A railway was being printed on the empty middle space heading wherever the road was heading.
However, Nova didn’t stop with just the construction of the road and the rail network, a new batch of machines that had been driving for about half an hour finally arrived at the makeshift port that was being guarded by the Ares members with guns in their possessions. A few speed boats could also be seen to be patrolling from a distance, making sure that no one is able to approach the island, as the knowledge of whatever was being created on the island could potentially plunge the world into chaos.
The machines didn’t even pause for a second as ten of them continued driving, entering the water as if they were a malfunctioning Tesla’s autopilot. Slowly but surely, the machines started disappearing into the water, but even if that was happening right in front of them, none of the Ares soldiers did anything to stop the machines.
The other ten machines that were left behind by those that tried to commit suicide by water, took no short than a few seconds to scan the whole makeshift port before immediately starting to disintegrate everything that could be seen on the port.
The soldier had already received orders to retreat to a far distance and watched at the sight before their eyes in horror, as how everything that once excited, wasn’t anymore, vanishing as if it were a mirage, remaining as only memories of these soldiers as a proof of their existence.
Being soldiers, they couldn’t help but imagine what would happen if there ever comes a day when this technology would be used as a weapon. How could they even try fighting it?
The machines on the surface, not caring about the spectators, continued their work, working in tandem with the ones that went under the water as they started deepening the depth of the port to a massive depth of seventy meters, immediately breaking the record for the world’s deepest port by over four times.
This depth extended for more than a kilometer parallel to the shore, clearly showing that they were planning on making the initial port about a kilometer in length.
Now that the disintegration process was completed, it was immediately followed by the machines starting the printraction of the port.
Part by part, slowly but surely, the port was coming to life. All of this happened in front of the eyes of the soldiers, who would never be able to forget this day of their life, knowing that this was merely the beginning of their bizarre adventures, as long as they continue working for Aron, if you ignore the fact of them being healed by him before.
Throughout the entirety of this ordeal, from Nova starting the construction of the massive building in tandem with the building on top of the fusion reactor, the construction of the water pipeline and the super strong road, Aron remained unmoving on his reclining beach chair with an umbrella protecting him from the sun and a thin veil of sheet covering his body, making him appear as if he was calmly sleeping while having a nice dream.
