Chapter 222 Building Materials

Gurung Ayukan is coming, and he is coming on behalf of the church.

Things were a little troublesome, but he still wanted to farm well.

But...it will take a long time to come. After all, the letter was written by an ancient dragon. An ancient dragon said that he would come soon. According to human time concept...let's wait for half a year. People can sleep for half a year by taking a nap.

I wonder if Ayouken is as lazy as Elaine, it would be great if that was the case.

"Well, sir, what should we do? What's going on with the daughter mentioned here? Does this missionary have a daughter with us? Should we..." While thinking about whether to eradicate the root cause, Bai asked Lu Enbi

Made a downward cutting gesture.

Lu En was surprised, what did this little girl go through to become so cruel?

"Ahem, what are you thinking about?" He said blankly and said, "His daughter is Elaine, the one who is helping us now. Are you embarrassed to do it?"

"Ah? Is that the big sister who is all golden and looks very rich? Is she from the church?" Bai frowned: "Sir, there are few of us now, so we should keep the team pure. Although she looks very

Okay, but if it has something to do with the church... I think it would be better to clear it out."

"That's good, but don't worry, she can trust her." Lu En did not reveal Elaine's identity. After all, she is a dignified holy dragon. If she said it, the camp might break up. At the very least, high-level vampires might not be able to accept it, unless

Elaine handed over a certificate of surrender and killed people from the church, but that was not what Lu En wanted to see. He had other plans.

"Okay, I will arrange it. Don't worry. Is there anything else?" Lu En changed the subject.

Since the person in charge had said so, Bai didn't have much to say. He suppressed his mood and began to report on the recent situation in the camp.

"Recently, our existence was discovered by a group of savage beasts. The orcs can't deal with it. This is the twenty-sixth group recently. Although no one has died yet, Sister Kara's energy has been seriously distracted. I suggest that we need to build something around.

It doesn't take much to build some fortifications, just a few traps and traps. Sir, you can use magic to create traps. We'll do the traps. It won't take long." Bai said, gesturing with his hands.

"Trap? Reject the horse?" Lu En touched his chin with his hand.

"Well, you can do this now, but it's not necessary. I've been busy these days and don't have much time. I'm dealing with people from the church every day. I don't have much free time with the high-level vampires. Now I have time.

, I'm here to teach you something, you can use it." Lu En took out a pen and paper, began to write and draw, and then tore it into notes.

"Go and prepare some clay and lime. There is a river nearby. It should not be difficult to collect it. By the way, their workshop should not be built yet. They also need some slag from your blast furnace before. To build things, I have one that is better than stone.

The useful thing is called cement." He said while writing down the materials that needed to be prepared.

"Cement?" Bai tilted his head. This name is so strange.

However, since the gentleman has said it all, it must be useful. Bai took the note he wrote and started to prepare those things.

The next day, Bai stayed up all night and led people to collect materials everywhere. If there was something in the warehouse, he would take it away. If there was nothing in the warehouse, he would go and find it. Finally, he had all the materials ready before dawn. The quantity was not small.

.

Lu En also didn't sleep all night, mainly because of the boundary monument. It is unusual for something that can rewrite the concept of the universe. In order to complete this within a month, Lu En used himself to build this boundary monument, which cost eighteen pieces.

The boundary monument is equivalent to eighteen Lu En standing on the border. His mind is divided into nineteen parts, and he can be there at any time. The advantage is that once someone crosses the boundary, he will know it immediately. The disadvantage is that before taking his mind back, he will know it immediately.

, he doesn’t want to sleep, meditate, or do something that requires extreme concentration. How can he concentrate when he is distracted for nineteen times?

At dawn, the sun rose slightly, and Lu En stood under the light of the morning light, with Bai beside him, and a monster hybrid.

The monster hybrid is a tauren mixed with humans. It looks no different from a normal tauren. It has a bull's head and hooves, and its body is slightly bowed. It is just a little shorter, but for humans, it is tall and powerful, with a strong body.

It is a full two and a half meters tall, and a normal tauren is about three to four meters tall.

His name is Big Tower. He was one of the monster hybrids in Larante. Now he is the most powerful stonemason among those monster hybrids. He is very talented. He has already reached Stonemason 2. But he only broke through a few days ago. He is the most powerful stonemason among all monster hybrids.

The only Level 2, because recently he has been mining the stone field near this wasteland day and night to prepare for future expansion. A lot of practice, suitable talent, and some luck have made him Level 2.

"Cement is a very good building material and can also be used as an adhesive for stone. The raw materials are easy to obtain, very cheap and efficient. The specific manufacturing method has been given to you. I will demonstrate it to you now.

.”

The raw materials brought here are all genuine "raw materials". They have not been ground and are all in lumps. The slag is still hard.

Normally, grinding these requires a lot of manpower and physics, but for a Magic 9, that is not necessary. Magic itself represents a higher level of productivity. Otherwise, the majestic buildings of Larante and the Imperial Capital rely on

What was built? Did it rely on the technological level of this magical medieval world? Of course it is impossible, it relied on advanced production technology.

In Lu En's view, this world is not backward at all. On the contrary, this world is incredibly advanced. Human beings have a civilization history of ten thousand years. The human beings in this world are not necessarily stupider than the human beings in the original world. They are just too lazy to

It's just research on physical chemistry. Their real technical power lies in magic. Those magic instruments are the best proof. They can tear apart the teleportation in space. In the original world, this technology was still left in the "conjecture" of the computer folder in the laboratory.

column, it has been implemented here and can even be used on a large scale.

Because of the existence of individual power, all technology and development in this world are limited to the upper class. No one cares about the lower class people at all, so they have maintained the so-called magical medieval living standards for thousands of years.

They can't start a revolution, because even if they start a revolution, as long as two or three level 9 people come, they will be destroyed by raising their hands. It's just a splash in a small ditch. It's not important. To them, population is just a lot of people and high-level professionals.

It will just increase.

Thinking of this, Lu En sighed. That emperor was very scary. He didn't look like a professional. It was just that his eyes seemed to contain an abyss.

He just couldn't figure it out. His eyes could even hold the abyss, so why couldn't he hold those things?

But this was not important. After putting it behind him, Lu En said to Bai and Data: "Look carefully and remember the process. This thing is very important."

Hearing Lu En say it was important, the two of them were already very nervous, but now they became even more solemn, watching Lu En's actions without blinking.

"First of all, grinding. You are a stonemason. This shouldn't be a problem for you. You don't need to grind it as finely as I do. The coarser grinding will only be a little less strong, but grinding it finer is not a bad thing."

As he spoke, the magic in his hand was activated, and the magic power gathered, creating a large pool of elemental ice that was constantly being stirred and ground. These were called ice, but in fact they did not melt. Instead, they were extremely strong and worked very well for grinding.

This is the ice pond technique. It was originally intended to destroy some strong armors. This technique is especially useful against some iron turtles, but it is also very effective when used to grind raw materials.

Soon, the raw materials were ground into extremely fine powder. Lu En blended it according to a certain proportion. During the blending process, he said: "Lime is the largest raw material used in the production of cement, and its particle size is large and its hardness is high, so it is difficult to grind. This

Please note that it does not need to be too fine, but if there are particles, it will be more troublesome and will affect the final product."

As Lu En spoke, he began to shape these raw materials into spheres with the hands of the mage.

Bai and Data quickly wrote it down. They both knew that this might be alchemy, and alchemy cannot be wrong in any step, otherwise you may die. This is an ancient and revered art, which is the preparation of various magical substances.

This is an art that only a few desperate people, who are not only smart but also not afraid of death, can be lucky enough to master this skill.

There is a well-known joke about alchemy. It is the last words of a master alchemist. His last words before his death were: "Remember, you can only add three drops of Polar Skin Oil here... Damn it! Everyone run away!"

Having learned from the past, they became more solemn. The steps of alchemy must be perfect, otherwise they would be making fun of their lives.

"Then, the clinker is burned. You can see clearly." Lu En turned the element in his hand again, and the original deep pool of solid ice suddenly burned in the blink of an eye. The yellow flame ignited along with a pungent smell, and there was a faint light.

Flashing in the morning light, they quickly transformed from a single figure into hundreds or thousands, and blazing flames poured out from Lu En's hands and began to be fired.

Lu En uses the vertical kiln calcination method. This method has long been eliminated. It wastes resources, causes serious environmental pollution, and has poor effects. Because it is a static calcination, many times the outside of the raw material has been sintered.

After completion, the inner layer may still be undergoing solid phase reaction, while the core part may still be decomposing calcium carbonate, resulting in uneven heating, poor product quality, and low output, but the advantage is that the technical content is also very low.

The more excellent method is of course the calcining method of the rotary kiln. Using the rotary calcining equipment, the cement material in the rotary kiln can roll freely up and down. The cement output and quality are greatly improved, and the energy consumption and production costs are greatly reduced. Moreover, the cement produced in this way is

Clinker has more pores, is easy to mix, has stable composition, and is higher in uniformity and quality than vertical kiln cement. However, it requires rotating horizontal calcining equipment. Don’t even think about it for the time being. It only exists in your dreams.

"These two steps are the most important. The first is the calcareous raw materials, clay raw materials and a small amount of calibrated raw materials. After crushing, mix them according to the proportion I gave you, grind them into uniform raw materials, and then calcine them into cooked materials.

The ingredients, proportions and temperatures are all written down in the notes I gave you. Remember, the temperature must be stable and cannot rise or fall. However, this requires a stable source of coal... Well, this is a problem. You have nothing to worry about.

Any ideas? The trade road here has not yet been opened, and it is unlikely to be opened in a short time." Lu En asked in dialogue while forging cement to control the heat.

Bai didn't know the answer, so he frowned and thought. Now is the period of controlling the heat, so he doesn't need to pay too much attention to the clinker being calcined.

However, Data suddenly spoke: "Sir..."

He calls Mr. Lu En, not Wang, because this title is commonly used by the monster hybrids who came out of Larante. Everyone calls him Mr., as if he can tell where he comes from from the title.

"What can you do?" Lu En looked at the big tower. The tauren was one meter taller than him, and he had to raise his head to look directly at it.

"Can we ask people from the church to help connect the trade routes? I heard that if it is a diocese, the church will definitely open the roads to facilitate pilgrims." Datta said.

"Impossible, isn't that just showing weakness to the church? Sir, I fought with them..." Bai retorted, but at this point, her voice became softer and gradually stopped. These things were not told to ordinary members.

Saying it now may cause panic.

These ordinary members only know that they are here to open up wasteland, so that they no longer have to endure the glare and oppression in the city, but they do not know that they are here to fight against the church... If they knew, they might be scared out of their wits.

Seeing her stop, Data continued confusedly: "Is there anything strange about showing weakness? Is there anything better than the church? Besides, I have a pretty good impression of the church. I couldn't afford to eat before, so why not go to the church to eat?"

"Young Master, they don't charge any money for giving alms. Anyone can go, as long as they kneel there and chant the sutras."

After saying that, he grinned and said: "But I still like being here! Although there is food there, I always feel uncomfortable. There are brothers here and goals to strive for. Moreover, I also learned my skills here.

Arrived, sir, we can build a city like Larante here, right?”

"What are you thinking about? The city we want to build... is much bigger than Lalante." Lu En also replied. At the same time, due to the magic flame, the cement clinker in his hand was almost burned.

This is much faster than in the stove.

Lu En smashed the clinker in his hand into powder, placed it on the ground, used the field wall to shape it, and used the water creation technique to create a water ball.

"Okay, take a look. This special powder, called cement, combined with stones, can make extraordinary defense facilities and can also be used to build houses." Lu En hasn't added the water yet, but he has already
