Chapter 398: Mechanical Transportation Workshop

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

More than sixty gray dwarves were brought to the mansion by Owen.

Jax was waiting for them. When the other dwarves arrived, they panicked at the sight of Xu Yuan and Su Wan.

They lowered their heads and didn’t dare look Xu Yuan in the eye.

Xu Yuan nodded at the old dwarf, who bowed to him. Jax didn’t waste any time and began explaining everything to his companions.

There were a total of three dwarves who were of the hero unit. One was C-class, and the other two were D-class.

Investing a million resources to activate their bloodline and new abilities sounded like a reasonable exchange.

“All the dwarves will be under your management, Jax,” said Xu Yuan. “Solve your internal problems. If you need anything, tell Owen.”

Subduing and solving arguments among the dwarves wasn’t Xu Yuan’s job.

“Yes, Great Ruler…” Jax didn’t dare refuse.

The other dwarves also didn’t want to offend Xu Yuan. They sensed that he was powerful. What could they do? Their life was in Xu Yuan’s hands now.

“The mechanical transportation workshop that you ordered to be built has been completed!” said Owen after the dwarves left the hall.

Transportation was still a problem. Flying didn’t suffice. So, Su Wan collected blueprints and had the dwarves build the mechanical transportation workshop to come up with new means of transportation. She wanted to use the Sandworms for transportation.

Su Wan’s goal wasn’t just to conquer the underground world. She wanted to create a functioning city that worked well with her territory like a well-oiled machine.

Owen led the way, and Su Wan and Xu Yuan followed behind.

Alchemy was a thing of wonder for the natives. Alchemical technology could change the world. The gray dwarves were especially gifted with alchemical knowledge. Although their race was arrogant, greedy, and cowardly, their knowledge of alchemy was unparalleled.

Xu Yuan and Su Wan had many ideas on how to make use of that knowledge and implement it in their own territory.

The biggest problem at the moment was that the introduction of alchemy in Furnace City had not achieved the desired effect.

There were three huge machines in front of the mechanical transportation workshop. Each machine was almost ten meters tall, twenty meters wide, and thirty meters long. They were divided into three levels. There were huge hooks at the front and the back.

Xu Yuan was just about to ask something when Owen pointed at the machines. “These are the boats we designed for the Sandworms,” he said. “It’s designed in sections. For transporting small packages, just one boat could be used. However, if the capacity is more, each boat could be hooked to the other to make wider space. The sides could also be dismantled to just keep the base if we’re transporting something that is huge and heavy. Moreover, the front part is designed with the Sandworm’s body in mind. The hook will adjust itself to fit their bodies.”

Su Wan was satisfied with the information that Owen gave her. He had basically built a train. She had obtained the blueprint months before and given it to Owen, it felt good to finally see some results. The dwarves were indeed very talented.

“Although the mechanical boat has been completed, there are still many things that need to be improved. We still need the Sandworms to cooperate with us for further research,” said Owen.

“Of course! I’ll send some Sandworms here, so you can study them all you like.”

Survival and safety were always the most basic needs for every creature on this plane. It seemed alchemical knowledge also focused on that.

The mechanical boat was similar to a train. Although it was originally intended to transport troops, it could be used to transport anything!

The other Lords mostly focused on strengthening their troops, while Su Wan focused more on developing her territory. For this, opening trade relationships with the underground world had been most fruitful.

“The Sandworms are still growing. Their sizes will be different in the future. Have you taken that into consideration?” asked Su Wan.

Owen nodded. “The mechanical boat was finalized after many discussions. We considered every variable.”

Su Wan and Xu Yuan could become rulers of the underground world if they played their cards right. The dwarves’ contributions to alchemy would be invaluable.

They had gathered most talents from Furnace City after defeating it..
