Master Of None

Chapter 2936: 2936. Growth and Pride

"They are up to twenty full research groups?"

This was the conversation topic that pulled Walker from the talk of mapping the elemental planes along with the world as a whole.

He had been entirely immersed in this since he and Su had arrived, but Su had already gone off to work on other things. The complications in the mapping when it came to the outer elemental planes had been enough that he was constantly surrounded by questions.

Plenty of researchers were trying to figure out how to handle the fact that places with little mana or complex mana caused changes that they could not put on to paper. Then again, this was where the mapping orbs came in to beneficial usage.

They could show more than a flat paper could. Plus, they could allow for the amounts of mana and dangers to be recorded by those scouting such an area. It would allow for a depth in information that could be used later beyond the average and even the highest quality that most people with the best scouting abilities would struggle to achieve.

Besides all of this, Walker has made a point to reference what he knew to what the other scouts, emissaries, and adventurers were grinding.

This gave him insight in to mapping as a whole along with the developing process that was exploration.

Specifically, he was impressed by the code of conduct that was being made for those just starting to explore. It was a solid book of tips, tricks, and rules that would help everyone. It was also being copied and shared readily throughout Genesis. Proving that the flow of information for the people was easier and easier by the day.

This further proved that making educational focal points would keep producing better futures for everyone too.

Where the information from his small mapping orb truly helped the most was the mana gathered by it. It allowed for those monitoring the maps and the mapping process overall to better identify chaotic mana or corrupted plants and monsters within an area. It caused the small mapping orbs to show strange broken pieces that would not appear normally.

This was how some of the echidna nature mages had been dispatched with guard groups to handle a few places where mana became dense in poor ways causing chaotic mana to anchor in. Walker hadn’t even needed to be called to help!

This all went even further with the fact that Walker saw how this was helping improve joint opportunities for adventurers and the guards. Since they had information on areas that might be in trouble, they could more easily travel there and solve problems before they evolve in to a poor direction.

Additionally, Walker focused on the fact that he too was learning about the unexplored lands after the world’s expansion.

So many places in the mountains had cave systems that were entirely unseen and undiscovered until now. A few areas in the deserts showed oases that could become the perfect waiting and resting place for merchants traveling between territories. Not to mention that there were changes in some rivers being larger or branching off and bringing people to new hunting and fishing grounds.

All things that helped the people of Genesis as a whole.

Where the comments and reports about Midnight and Onyx came in to focus was the sudden ask for more researcher groups.

At first, Walker would have just assumed that it was normal, but twenty research groups? That seemed excessive.

Until that was, he saw the report as to why he was seeing that many head over.

The fact that the dungeon could be called a perfectly closed ecosystem that could remain open indefinitely if it was treated right was amazing. Most dungeons only opened at certain times or for certain lengths of time. Or they would close after a certain requirement in hunting, gathering, or otherwise was met. Menaign that they would not be available for a longer period of time which would slow the area’s development around that dungeon.

Some could not be anchored for the people to go around. It was unfortunate but just a fact of how it all worked.

He was struck by a great pride in the two knowing that they saw the inherent value of the dungeon and how they must ensure it could remain open constantly. The care it would receive would be greater and the initial time cost of researching it properly would also cost more. But in the long term, this dungeon could provide a consistent harvest allowing for even more benefits over time.

Not only would the cost become lower and lower after the understanding of the ecosystem as a whole was reached, it would require fewer hands to maintain. Therefore making a low cost high reward resource that just needed the proper respect to remain bountiful!

With the foresight to plan that and organize that process, Walker truly knew that there was a marked change in the way the two thought. Before they would have come to himself or another then proceeded to planning such things.

Now, they worked together and placed their own confidence in their actions. They pushed ahead and knew the importance of what was needed. Furthermore, they were calling on specific groups to better prepare for the future of the dungeon they were exploring.

The only thing that caught Walker a little was that he could tell Scylla had pushed off some of her work on to the two of them. But he could tease them about letting that happen later.

"Hey, you want to pay some attention?" The solid punch to his arm was exactly like Remey when she wanted attention.

"What brought you looking for me? I thought you would be busy with Ignus?" This was true but he had let her come up to bother him because he could sense that Remey had a few things on her mind.

"Pfft, he’s focused on getting his elders ready and preparing things for guarding that dungeon seed. Responsibilities first. He doesn’t even need me for now so I will work on what I want to work on." She seemed very annoyed explaining her punch before as he had been thinking about the reports related to Midnight and Onyx.

"I want you to see the floating greenhouse they made. It’s a higher quality light affinity greenhouse built on a larger stone base. It’s for specific herbs that need purer light mana that would best come from the natural flow of the sun. It’s also part of projects you have worked on too."

She knew exactly how to grab Walker’s curiosity and use it to help her get some help. She also knew that he had been following the elemental dome and the floating island research and experimentation projects closely.

Therefore, news that a successful greenhouse had made it in to floating structure so that light mana isolation could be created was big news. Just a testing greenhouse like this was very valuable for Genesis. Plus, would continue to show more growth in the projects that could go for encouraging new routes of researching them too.

"I have a few herbalists who think we should bring that moss up to it, but I stopped them. They aren’t ready for that and it’s safer in your storage than there." She knew the desire to push ahead would never leave, so she had to limit people now before they got too far ahead of themselves and caused damage over growth.

"What about the herbs you will put there?"

"White clover and butterfly lace. Both herbs that grow on mountaintops and in abundance within the light elemental plane. They are delicate and struggle with other manas or changes in the environment. Entire fields could be destroyed just because the wind blows the wrong way with too much wind mana."

It wasn’t that these herbs were extremely valuable, but because they could perish easily. But using them as a test it would challenge the skill sets of the herbalists and also the greenhouse itself as a whole. Not to mention testing the combination of the projects as well.

"That’s a great idea. I would like to see what the herbalists need to wear and how they must act when going to care for them." Now Walker was touching on what Remey wished to see too. The equipment for such care had changed a lot and she had yet to see the current state of this aspect of herbalism and growth.

The changes in tools and gear worn had changed rapidly lately. Especially for unique crafts like herbalism, forging, and even basic construction. So seeing it in person and how people were learning flaws in them in real time would give both Walker and Remey much better base line knowledge of the current standing.
