Survival in Another World With My Master

With 100 personnel and key members other than Cubi and Schmel, the construction of a full-scale base began. No, I'm the one making it. Trying to build a base of this size manually takes time on an annual basis.

"I can't hold you in my cuffs forever, but I want you to do your best for the first step."

Well, yeah.

Please forgive me for saying that I will do everything when I build the city in the future. I mean, that's a lot worse. People's independence and other pre-existing issues will result in mass production of unemployed people.

In the meantime, we must produce enough food to feed about 100 people, so we will build a field. With regard to the field, it is planned to be built in the barrier at the time of the first expansion. The enclosure of the fields where food can be harvested in the base makes it easier to build a cage castle. Water can be used up for nothing.

As for the food for the time being, I can cover the 100 people who took care of it and the amount I put in the inventory. That said, it is better for the first harvest to be quicker, as there is not room for it. I decided to spend the whole day working in the fields.

I'll leave it to the people to take care of the farmland block after I plant the seeds. Watering, harvesting, replanting, etc., will be done with the Mankai Tactics.

"This area of crops can be harvested in three days... no, it's horrible."

"The presence of Lord Koske will destroy the concept of a military station."

We can harvest enough crops in three days for everyone to eat, and then we can harvest the same crop in about a week. I wonder if the pantry will overflow soon.

"The more people we have, the more we consume. We need planned food production."

Merti is taking control of the harvested food very seriously. The responsibility is very heavy, as three hundred people may starve at her behest. She will not be allowed to fail. It's painful.

"There was no abnormality in the east side. There is nothing very embarrassing about it. I will try to reach out a little further from tomorrow."

"On the north side, there were a few things like rotten buildings. Maybe there are ruins."

"In the west, I can see it from here, but I've seen the side of the mountain. Overall, it feels like a rocky mountain, and maybe mineral resources are sleeping. I brought some samples of ore."

Nearly half of the 100 people are capable of fighting. They are partying with a few people and exploring the surroundings. Water and food can be secured at the base, so the search is mainly for mineral resources, ruins, and other things that seem to be of value.

"You think it's worth something?

Ask Sylvie and Isla, who are scrutinizing the reports coming up from the expedition. Me? That's me. Let's take a break. You're not a savage, are you?

Around here, it's a ruin. Under the wilderness, the ruins of the Kingdom of Omit are often asleep. Most of them are off the shelf, but rarely find treasures. "

"In addition, in rare cases, spiritual power is skewed to a single point due to the influence of disturbing spiritual power. Sometimes special minerals can be mined in these places."

"It can also be used to deal with the Elf's Country, and it is better to secure such supplies for later use. It's useful for us too."

"It can be used for alchemy and magic equipment making."

I see.

Because of Sylvie's later, I'm sure he's planning a business deal with someone other than Elves. Merchants are good people. If we can trade resources, treasures, and items made by black forest elves sleeping in the great wilderness of Omit, some of us will come to business, even if we are hostile to the Holy King. Probably.

At that rate, I built the main base for about a month.

No, I think I can handle it.

"Well done."

From the top of the barrier, Silfi and I looked down at the base and murmured.

At the time of the first plan, the base was a fortified city covered by a 500m x 500m barrier.

In front of us was a stone town - no, the city was built. The main ingredients are stone walls and concrete made from stone, rock, and then gravel drilled in the wilderness. There are sturdy buildings lined up, but the interior of the barrier, and a fairly large field in its corner. There, many of King Merinard's people were sweating their foreheads and working in agriculture.

You can also hear the hammer from the other corner. When I looked at you, I saw some water wheels turning around. It's a so-called craftsman's town over there. Until it took shape, I, Ira, and some of the magicians, alchemists, and craftsmen among the King's people needed to join forces. There was water, food and safety in the city, but there was a fatal shortage.

"I'm really glad we solved the fuel problem...."

"There's a limit to transporting from the black woods."

It is about three days' walk from the Black Forest to this main base. I think we should use a carriage or something, but we don't have one, and we don't have any black forest elves. And there's no way. Therefore, I have no choice but to take care of it, but this is too much trouble again. There is also a danger of being attacked by gizmas.

Fuel such as firewood and charcoal is essential for cooking and warming. This is not first available in the Omit Wilderness. There's only a rock and dirt wilderness around here. It was Isla and the sorcerers and the alchemists who solved it.

"I think we can do something if we just cook and warm it up."

When we were discussing plans for the transportation of firewood, such words came out of Isla, who was often silent.

"This city is at the assembly point of the ground vein, or pulse hole. It's not like I'm spreading magic out of the veins."

"The magic of the earth's veins... but is it that easy? Does that mean that magic equipment will be deployed to each family?

"With Koske's help, it's easy. Making alloys of mythrills, silver, or copper won't be much hassle. The structure is also simple. It is also easy to suck up magic from the veins of the earth, using an already existing boundary device. You can build magic accumulators in several places on the ground and distribute magic to each facility from there. This can also be made in large quantities, even if it is small, by machining mythrills. It gets a little bigger with an alloy, but it's still about a tiny cabin."

"I see. Koske?

"I don't think it would be difficult to make an alloy if you could tell me the proportion and the unique noun of the alloy itself. The combination of magic and my craftsmanship is also a subject of interest."

"That's certainly interesting. It will also lead to an examination of Koske's abilities, and it should be time to complete the construction of the city. If successful, it will also provide jobs for residents, and I propose to proceed with the research."

In the latter part of the past month, Isla and other magicians, alchemists and craftsmen were also involved in the development of various tools and processing machines.

"Let's go to the craftsman's town."

I see.

Get off the barrier and head for the craftsman's town. Today, the craftsmanship district has a wide range of woodworking products such as household heaters, crossbow arrows, swords, agricultural tools, knives and pots, logged boards, and other tableware. The craftsmen used magical furnaces to extract and process iron from iron ore, and used machines powered by water wheels to perform various tasks.

"The water wheel seems to be moving well."

Yeah, I think so.

There are several variations in the machines that use water wheel power. Various things were created, such as saws powered by water wheels, cutting lathes, wipes that send wind to furnaces, forging hammers, yarns, and powdered stone moulds. At this moment, a new machining machine may be being made.

Incidentally, it was possible to upgrade my workbench with water wheel power. Unfortunately, however, the workbench using water wheel power could not be moved from the installation point. Now that I have a lot of trouble, I am looking for other ways.

It is also thanks to the infinite water source that we can operate so many water wheels. Thanks to the infinite power of the water wheel, the base is able to produce to a certain extent without me. Each one of them is faster than the others, of course.

However, the fuel problem can be solved with thermal magic devices, but we still need to be able to procure wood as a material. Should it be planted outside the base? If you use the farmland block, the trees will probably grow at an incredible rate. If I had a lot of bones, I'd try the cheat item. Kizuma's crustaceans couldn't be processed.

"With food, water, safe beds, and production capacity, we'll be fine with the base for now."

"Well, I guess I can manage without relying on Koske's abilities. A lot of things are still missing."

"Once the stronghold is complete, the outpost will be next... let me show you what I can do"

I see. And then finally, the operation begins. "

Sylvie's eyes are sharp. For Sylphie, this is exactly where we're going to be.

The outpost was built two days' walk from the base in the heart of the Omit Great Wilderness. Gizma raids have also occurred frequently, but the experience of building several relay bases and bases has been greatly utilized in the establishment of front-line bases. Specifically, in this way.

Intermediate Builder - Install a total of 500000 building blocks. * Unlocks the blue print function.

I didn't know it well at first. What's a blue print feature? It feels like. However, given that at the time of the Beginner Builder Achievement, the symmetrical left and right modes of blocking were also unlocked, there is no doubt that it is a function of the system that saves the architectural effort.

I looked at the menu from corner to corner and figured out what the blue print function was.

"Hahahahaha! I'm not afraid to set up a base anymore!

Construct barracks with Pom Pom Pom and One Action, erect barriers in 10m increments, and install relatively complex castle gates with One Action. You don't even need to dig a hole when installing a castle wall, all with one action.

In other words, the "blue print function" was a function that made it possible to register a building template and install it from the template. The point is, it's like copying and pasting buildings.

Register frequently built buildings in blue prints to instantly install any material you want. If the entire base is blue printed, you can install the base at any time and instantly at any time. If you want to do it.

"If you look at this, building installations can't consume materials."

So you're going to dig after all.

"Yes"

Even if the installation is easier, the materials are digging by hand. In addition, you have to make your first building by yourself. Stone and soil used as building materials can emerge as much as the wild ground can be dug. I also want to build a borehole, so I make a borehole and replenish it with building materials.

Normally, when you build a barrier, you dig a hole, and in the process you can refill the building materials, but when you install a barrier using the blue print feature, you don't need to dig a hole. This time I installed it without digging a hole, so I ran out of building materials.

"Where is the soil pushed by the foundation of the wall...?

Ira held her head as she dug through the foundations of the barrier with earth magic. Yeah, it's good to dig, but keep it up, that's all.

The front-line defense base is 250m x 250m on one side, after the base, and the number of people that can be garrisoned is about 1500. Three baristas each, four baristas each at two castle gates, and about 10 meters apart from the barrier are installed on the four corner ridge base so that a total of 116 baristas can be installed. The total thermal power when all of this is in operation is as far as we can guess.

"If we don't get people together now, we'll be tigers."

"Certainly, 300 people can't operate with this much base."

Sylphie laughs bitterly at my words. Since the number of varistors alone is up to 116, if three people are assigned to one varistor, it means that 300 people are not enough. If we cannot secure manpower in future liberation operations, we will not be able to fully utilize our defensive base in the corner.

"If we're going to run this place properly, we need at least 500 people."

"Well... I hope you get that many people together."

"If Sylphie were to be the flag leader, it would be fine. What a princess."

"... I hope so."

Beyond the horizon, Silfi looks hard towards the realm of the Kingdom of Merinard. I don't feel confident at all. Sylphie doesn't like her position as Princess of the Kingdom of Merinard much, does she?

King Merinard's people in the Elves called Sylvie the Princess and felt respectful, but Sylvie herself felt uncomfortable being pointed at such things.

I've never cared much, but it's almost time to sell a fight to the Holy King. It's time to take a step forward and ask about the situation around here. That's what I thought as I looked at Sylvie's side exposed to the sunset.
