The Greatest Architect

Chapter 39



39. Friend of the Orcs (1)

The Black Wizard is dead.

Of course, Lloyd didn’t see it for himself.

His insides were still Kim Su-ho of South Korea.

I didn’t have the slightest idea of seeing a man die.

‘That’s enough for once. ’

The last image of unexpected parents.

I frowned my nose on my chest and came back to reality.

“Hey, hey. Careful, everyone. Don’t step on the wrong spot at a glance. Keep your eyes on the ground so you don’t fall on the rocks. ”

“I understand.”

They were imprisoned, starved, and weakened.

It was not worth taking them out of the dungeon.

It was because of the magic trap that remained.

I escaped cautiously over the hours.

After that, I sent Xaviel to retrieve the supplies from the Dungeon Lab.

I also brought the insulation I had stored up on the other side of the lab, hoping the Black Wizard would use it.

Of course, that didn’t mean the work was done.

It was because the soldiers were in a bottomless condition.

“Phew. These guys are all in trouble. Give it to me, man. ”

“What? Young Master? ”

“Never mind. Give it to me. ”

A stub used as insulation in the ice cube.

He was a soldier who howled down the mountain carrying it.

Lloyd approaches the soldier and grabs the straw.

Of course, the straw pile was stolen. (?) The soldier is overwhelmed.

“Excuse me, young master? I have to move that. How could a precious person…? ”

“Oops. If you fall down, I’ll grab someone’s ankle. ”

“I’m not going down. ”

“Only in words?”

“ ……. ”

“You look like shit right now. ”

“That’s ……. ”

“Forget it. But you guys are late, so it’s too late.” But what if he falls here? We’re gonna have to move a little slower with you. Isn’t that right? ”

“ ……. ”

“So I’m not taking care of you because you’re pretty. Don’t get me wrong?”

“Oh, I see. ”

“If you understand, don’t fall down. Follow me. Laugh!”

Lloyd bears a glimpse of the straw he took from the soldier.

The soldier doesn’t listen, but withdraws to the rear of the procession.

I was able to keep pace with the slowest soldier.

Of course, I kept my mouth shut about my soldiers.

“Hey, why do you keep looking at me? ”

“Oh, no. ”

“No, it’s nothing. I can see you chattering. ”

“I’m sorry.”

“If I’m sorry, will my military life end? ”

“No, I’m not.”

“This is the outside, isn’t it? ”

“ ……. ”

“Phew. One more and I’ll cry. That’s it. Let’s keep moving. ”

So he encourages soldiers with his mouth.) and did not hesitate to bear the burden of the weary.

It was repeated all the way over the mountain.

“Phew, I walked easily today. I think it’s thanks to Lloyd. ”

“Right? I did it yesterday, too. ”

“Yeah, me too. Thank you so much.”

Soldiers flocked to the makeshift camp in the night.

They discussed their own debate, fearing that their actions or voices would leak out.

“By the way, Master Lloyd, Are you really here to save us? ”

“I think so, don’t you? ”

“Well, I think you’re here to get the insulation back. ”

“But why did you come? I really thought I was gonna die there. ”

“I don’t think so. Me, too.”

The soldiers are grateful to Lloyd for saving them.

Such gratitude grew even greater with Xaviel’s advice.

“You can’t just thank me. You will live gratefully for the rest of your lives. ”

“What? Lord Asran? ”

The soldiers are nervous about Xaviel, who stumbled into a conversation.

Xaviel’s expressionless words continue.

“I returned to the territory, ready to fight the Black Wizard, and offered him a case. But Lloyd didn’t listen to me. He feared that you would die. That’s why he willingly threw himself into the Dark Wizard’s Den alone with me. ”

“ ……. ”

“Had it not been for Lloyd’s decision, you would have starved to death in the Black Wizard’s Den by now or been sacrificed. Live with that in your heart for the rest of your life. ”

“I understand.”

The soldiers were even more impressed.

It was Lord Asran’s word, not anyone else’s.

Xaviel Asrahan does not exaggerate or flatter.

His words, usually sincere, fair and cold, could be trusted unconditionally.

‘Lloyd did that for us…. ’

The one who was once called ruined.

So I’ve heard a lot of chatter.

Even those who cursed behind their backs countless times.

The man risked his life to save himself as a soldier.

The impressed soldiers steal their eyes in front of the campfire.

He laughed nonchalantly, saying that it was because of the smoke.

So I deeply engraved my gratitude for Lloyd.

Thanks to this, I also remembered a welcome message in front of Lloyd’s eyes.

Ding-dong.

[Rescued Engineering Soldiers are deeply moved by your actions.]

[They’re the only ones I’m impressed with right now, but if you return to the territory in the future, your spite will spread through the mouths of these soldiers. This can lead to social achievement.]

“Oh-ho.”

Lloyd chants bingo in his mind.

Fortunately, we saved the soldiers and obtained valuable magical ingredients.

I was able to return to the Orc quarter with all the insulation I could use for the glacier.

As soon as he arrived at the precinct, he entered the completion of the stonemason.

“The longer the construction period, the more disgusting it is! ’

Civil engineering was a fight against time.

When the construction period was longer, the construction costs increased that much.

“So let’s move quickly. It was nice having a good rest without me for a few days. ”

He encourages the remaining engineers in the Orc quarter.

I took off my shirt and sweated together as I was leading the scene.

Plow the clay mixed with lime.

Mud was mixed with straw and sawdust in the appropriate proportion.

I opened it up again and made it look like a stiff piece of meat.

It looked like a natural material version of the insulation, urethane foam, used on site in Korea.

‘This should do it. ’

Hand-made natural insulation was filled in the space between the granite bricks and the earth that had previously been built.

I squeezed it tightly so as not to leave any air gaps.

It was also above the arched ceiling.

“Come on, tightly! ”

“Tight!”

Lloyd’s spirit and the screams of the soldiers blend together.

The outside of the ceiling is covered in thick dough of insulation in a powerful spirit and a shout.

On top of it, I applied thick clay mixed with lime once again.

It was a waterproof layer that prevented the water from seeping down from the ground.

On top of that, you cover the ground thick again.

It made me spike like a stick.

After covering the soil, only the top of the ventilation chimney that I had made was slightly above the seal.

I covered the vent chimney with a covering stone.

And the potted plant was densely planted with self-sustaining thorns in the wilderness.

‘Because we need lots of grass like this to block the solar radiation. ’

The grass will primarily block the sun’s heat.

The roots will absorb the wheat moisture down.

“Phew, is this the last spiny grass? ”

Lloyd’s shovel moves.

A briar grass spreading from the roots was placed on the top of the seal.

I put pressure on the flat side of my shovel.

I didn’t forget to sprinkle some water.

It was water to help the roots settle down.

At last, the shoveling of Lloyd is complete.

But that didn’t mean that everything was over.

“The Silver Man made all the stone coffers. But it’s not as cool as what I’ve heard here, cough. ”

An Orc young man, Arosh, ran in with his nostrils fluffed when he heard the stone shaft was finished.

A place to gather cool air and store food for a long time.

I was already excited and my pectoralis were burning.

But then I came inside the stone glacier and I saw something.

Unlike my expectations, the inside was not very cool.

“What’s going on here? It’s not very cool, cough. ”

“Right? Of course, I’d rather be out here in the middle of the summer than out in the dreadful heat, but I think you’ll want something of this. ”

“Yes. It’s a little cooler than out here, but I don’t know the big difference. ”

Orc Arosh tilts his big head.

I was a little disappointed.

But I still trusted my savior, Lloyd.

As the savior who has always shown a strange tickle so far, I thought I’d have an idea again.

Arosh’s expectations were also correct.

“That’s right. It’s not going to be cool yet. ”

“Not yet, cuddly? ”

“Uh. The glaciers are ice, but they haven’t filled the ice yet. ”

“Ice? You mean it’s cooler if you fill it with ice? ”

“Of course. No matter how cold the ice sheets are, it doesn’t get. Like you couldn’t cool down without putting ice in the ice box. ”

“Ice…… box, cooked? ”

“Yeah. Something like that. ”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Anyway, where do you plan on getting the ice, Duck? ”

“There’s no way to save it, if it’s the way it was. ”

“What if it’s the way it’s supposed to be? ”

“Uh, it’s the middle of the summer. ”

“Aha, I’ll pay you back. ”

From what I hear, I was right.

It was still sunny outside.

I should hope the stream doesn’t dry up, rather than get ice.

Arosch snores.

“But I think I have an idea. Am I right? ”

“Oh, right. ”

Lloyd grins.

“We can’t get ice in the normal way right now, so we’ll make it and fill it up. ”

“Make ice? How’s that for a profit? ”

“I don’t know what to do. We have to make it work. ”

It was the middle of the summer.

Of course, there was nowhere to get ice.

However, it was not the place to call for a wizard who uses iceberg magic.

So there was only one way left.

It was to make ice myself.

‘Because I have the heart of Asran. ’

If we apply the cardinal law properly, we can make ice.

He thinks like that, and goes straight for making ice.

First, I fed the red sunflower seed to Podong.

I asked Podong to become a giant.

“Podonga?”

“Podong?”

“You know that creek at the foot of those mountains? ”

“Podong!”

“Yes, that’s right. Can you go to the creek and get me some water? ”

“Podo-dong?”

“It’s full of cheekbones. Both. Can you do that for me? ”

“Po-dong! Po-dong! ”

“Oh, take the droplet with you on the way. Let’s eat some sunflower seeds, too. Here. That’s right. ”

“Droplets!”

Towaang!

The droplet grew large after eating the red sunflower seeds.

Podong burned those drops on his back.

“The droplets also come full of water. Don’t make it a steel dick. Push your butt even if you want to. Okay?”

“Droplets!”

Two phantoms rush to shake the giant conch.

After a while, a vast stream of water filled my cheekbones and stomach.

“Good job. Can you spit it out here? ”

“Peekaboo! Oaek!”

“Heave-ho!”

Shoot him!

The water from the two illusions poured out onto the rock.

The rocks that Lloyd had made before were full of fluttering water.

‘Well, it’s a giant version of a rectangular ice frame in a refrigerator compartment. ’

I made an ice cube and used the remaining granite.

I made it through the cracks. I carved it hard.

It was just a giant version of the refrigerator frame for home use by anyone in Korea.

You and your soldiers carry a chasm of ice cubes to the interior of the ice shaft.

After he moved them, he sent them all away.

You’ve closed the stone coffin door.

Lloyd’s all alone.

‘Let’s get started then. ’

Lloyd makes his way to the corner of the stonemason.

I’ve moved the straw pile there.

You place a straw large enough to fill the ice bucket with water.

I pressed into the bottom and side surfaces and secured them heavily.

Later, when the water froze, it was ready to conveniently remove the ice without damaging the ice.

So Lloyd carefully placed the straw on the floor and the sides inside of all the ice frames.

I finished all my preparations.

Immediately entered the making of full ice.

‘Focus your mind. ’

You sit on your legs with the ice sheet in front of you.

The sleeveless walking arms are submerged in the ice bucket.

I calmed down in that state.

Increases concentration.

Asran’s core law was triggered.

Kiiing…

It’s like the car is starting.

Two silent Mana circles begin to spin.

It rotates around the heart and exerts an attractive force.

The attraction expanded along the blood vessels and muscles.

Through my shoulders, through my forearms, to my fingertips.

The surrounding Mana was absorbed with the fingertips.

Up to this point, it was like the normal operation of the Asran law.

Lloyd tried one variation here.

‘Not all Mana, but only Manawa who has a warm temper. ’

Slowly absorbed.

At first, of course, it didn’t go as well as I thought.

The spin of Mana Circle has become unstable due to unfamiliar operating practices.

But Lloyd didn’t give up.

The more you do that, the more step-by-step.

Focus your mind.

I tried to absorb only warm Mana from the water soaking my hands.

So he hung on to the application of the court for a long time.

An hour, two hours, and three hours.

There was a change in the water in the ice frame.

Tsuz, tsuz…….

The water in the ice frame has deprived Mana of its warm temperament.

The water cooled slightly.

The ice is getting cold.

At the same time, a clear message rang out in Lloyd’s head.

Ding-dong.

[We have developed a new application of the Asran cardinal law.]

[This special attempt has increased the level of Asran Deep Jurisdiction Skill.]

Make ice to complete the glacier.

Lloyd’s research and attempts to do so have led to the growth of the judicial system.
