Chapter 375 Forge
After Roland appeared from the stairs on the second floor, the students in the lobby on the first floor soon saw him.
Although Roland is only a human, not a dwarf or a goblin, as a great being who established the War Council, killed Kan'ozu, and led the War Council to defeat the Green Tide, Roland has a high reputation among the races in the Council.
Therefore, after seeing Roland, the students in the lobby on the first floor became a little confused. Several students could not control their emotions and excitedly called out to the classmates next to them.
However, the small chaos did not last long, and after the officials slightly raised the roll call, the students calmed down a little.
Although students do not receive military education that emphasizes order and rules like the military, as students of official education, they have received education on order and law compared to ordinary people.
Moreover, as the War Council is a militarized country, the students of the academy have received relatively simple military training, so they have also developed a certain sense of order.
Therefore, with the hints from the officials and the reminders from other students around them, the student team quickly restored order.
Under the gaze of the officials, soldiers, and students on the first floor, Roland walked down the stairs step by step.
As Roland walked down the stairs, the official finished calling the last student, making sure all the students on the list were there.
At the same time, the officer in charge of commanding the soldiers working on security and maintaining order in the lobby on the first floor also straightened up, looked straight at Roland, and spoke loudly.
"salute!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers and officials in the lobby on the first floor saluted in Roland's direction and shouted in unison.
"Hello, Chairman!"
Although Roland was a little surprised by this sudden salute, which was totally out of his plan, he remained calm. After walking down the stairs, Roland smiled at everyone, returned the salute and spoke.
"Hello citizens, let it go, you have all worked hard."
After hearing Roland's words, the officers and soldiers put their hands down. The soldiers still stayed at their original posts, while the officer who had just called out his name trotted over to Roland.
He ran to Roland, saluted, handed the list in his hand to Roland, and spoke at the same time.
"Chairman, the number of students who should be here is 81, and the actual number of students present is 81. All are here."
Roland returned the gift and took the list from him. He glanced at it briefly and wrote down all the names on the list. Then Roland returned the list to the official and said with relief.
"Well, hard work."
The official took the list, turned sideways and said.
"Chairman, please."
Roland nodded slightly and walked towards the students, while the official followed Roland and spoke in a low voice.
"Chairman, the specific situation has been explained to the students. Those who stayed have signed contracts. According to your request, the contract period is three years. The textbooks have been distributed some time ago."
"Well, are you having any trouble?"
Roland nodded and asked in a low voice.
"not yet."
"If you encounter any difficulties later, please remember to report them in time."
"Yes."
The official responded in a low voice, then stopped. On the other side, Hela also stopped like him and did not continue to follow Roland.
Roland walked up to a small platform alone and looked up at the eighty-one dwarf and goblin students from the Silver Gate and the Gem Land.
Feeling their fanatical gazes, Roland began to cast the spell without changing his expression.
A large amount of elements gathered behind Roland and quickly formed dozens of bright balls of light.
The dwarf and goblin students looked at the dreamlike scenery before them and were fascinated for a moment.
"Close your eyes and calm your mind."
Roland's gentle voice rang in the students' ears, and after hearing Roland's words, they closed their eyes obediently without any hesitation.
As they closed their eyes and adjusted their states, Roland's heart moved, and the bright balls of light behind him flew down from the platform one by one and disappeared into the bodies of the students present.
In addition to the students, some balls of light flew into the officials and artificer soldiers in the hall.
After the ball of light disappeared into his body, Roland also began micro-manipulation, solidifying spells for more than a hundred people in the hall at the same time, decrypting the spell texts and solidifying them into their bodies.
At the same time, Roland also took some time to cast a positive energy spell to comfort the people who were solidified by the spell.
Golden positive energy flickers in the lobby on the first floor of the library. Every living being covered by the light feels the double comfort of body and soul.
Under the platform, Hela felt the comfort from Roland, and her eyes brightened as she looked at Roland.
The warmth from all directions covered every inch of his body, as if he was back in his mother's arms, safe, warm and happy.
Mi Wen felt his whole body relaxed, as if his body and mind had been freed from thousands of shackles and were no longer restrained, floating slowly upwards from the deep sea.
Countless gentle golden lights covered his entire field of vision, bright but not dazzling. Even as a goblin, he did not feel any discomfort.
He squinted his eyes, feeling the warmth brought by the golden light.
In the vision filled with golden light, Mi Wen also saw some flashing magic runes flying quickly in front of him from afar.
Under his gaze, these spell runes formed a spell model in front of him. After forming a spell model that he could not understand, the spell model slowly shrank and flew directly into his eyes.
After the spell model occupied his entire field of vision and flew into his eyes, Mi Wen suddenly woke up and opened his eyes subconsciously.
After suddenly opening his eyes, Mi Wen saw an empty platform.
He blinked his eyes, and his mind seemed to fall from a high altitude, and he felt a little empty inside.
"Awake? Well, that's right. You are the seventh person to wake up."
A voice sounded from beside him. Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Mi Wen looked towards the direction where the voice came from in a daze.
Then he saw the dwarf official he had named earlier.
Looking at Miwen's somewhat demented eyes, the dwarf official stretched out his right hand, waved it in front of him, and said.
"Are you stupid? Can you see clearly? What is this?"
The dwarf official held up three fingers. "Three."
Miwen looked at the hand extended by the dwarf official in front of him, moved his mouth, and said the correct answer.
He just looks a little demented, but his mind is still normal.
"It seems normal."
After hearing Miwen give the correct answer, the dwarf official also nodded and withdrew his hand.
While watching the dwarf official writing something with a pen and paper, Miwen turned his head to look at the empty platform.
Where is the chairman?
After the dwarf official finished recording, he looked up at Miwen. When he saw Miwen looking at the platform, he immediately guessed what Miwen was thinking and spoke directly.
"Don't look at it. The chairman left long ago."
Hearing his words, Miwen turned his head and looked at him. In response to Miwen's inquiring gaze, the dwarf official shrugged and spoke casually.
"If you were the first one to wake up, you could have seen the chairman for the last time. The chairman is very busy and has no time to stay here. After checking the first one to wake up, the chairman left."
"That's it"
Mi Wen scratched his head and asked curiously.
"So, who will be the first to wake up?"
"Yes, that one."
Hearing Miwen's question, the dwarf official also stretched out his hand and pointed at a silver dwarf who was flipping through books in the lobby on the first floor.
Mi Wen looked at the silver dwarf with some surprise in his eyes.
Although the silver dwarf noticed Miwen's gaze, he didn't care about the relationship between Miwen and the silver dwarf. As long as the students were not mortal enemies, the friendship between them was none of his business.
He flipped through the records in his hand and spoke.
"Okay, don't think too much. Now that you're awake, get moving. How's the situation? Can you work now? If you feel uncomfortable somewhere, you can go and rest for a while."
"Anytime, I mean at work."
Hearing the words of the dwarf official, Miwen withdrew his gaze and responded quickly.
"Very good. Then you will be in charge of Area 3. Yes, that's it. Go over there by yourself."
The dwarf official pointed to a bookshelf and spoke.
Following the direction of the dwarf official's hand, Miwen also knew the area he was responsible for.
"This is your borrowing certificate. Keep it safe and don't lose it. If you lose it, remember to tell me immediately."
The dwarf official stuffed a piece of paper into Miwen's arms, and after giving a few simple instructions, he walked towards another student who had just woken up not far away.
Looking at the dwarf official leaving, Miwen looked down at the paper in his hand again.
I didn’t recognize the words, but now I understand them.
Is this the power of magic? It's amazing.
As a goblin who had signed a contract, Miwen naturally knew that Roland would give them a spell called text decryption. Although he was prepared, Miwen still felt that this spell was very magical.
Holding the borrowing certificate, Mi Wen walked towards the bookshelf not far away.
While the library was getting back on track, Roland and Hela, who had left the library, returned along the Dragon Spine Passage and made a surprise visit to the Dragon Spine Cave they had inspected before. Of course, they did not find any problems.
In addition to the Dragon Ridge Cave, Roland also took a look at the gem land that was being rebuilt.
According to the supplementary content of the war preparedness plan, the Gem Land was designated as the last retreat for the committee goblins after the plan failed. Therefore, before the war plan began, the committee transferred a large number of goblin population to the Gem Land.
Therefore, the current mainstream population of the Gem Land is still mainly goblins, while the mainstream population of the Silver Gate is dwarves.
Even after the war, the committee encouraged population movement between the two dwarven territories, but it was unable to change the population situation.
Roland didn't have any good solution for this. Although forced migration could be used to solve the problem, large-scale population migration would consume too many resources, and the committee did not have the extra funds to do such a big job.
Therefore, after discussion in the administrative department, it was finally decided to use time and subtle administrative means to slowly change the population structure of the two dwarf territories.
Anyway, with Roland here and the army to support them, there won't be any big problems in these two dwarf territories.
The reconstruction of the Gem Land was generally going very smoothly. The goblins were very enthusiastic about the construction and they all threw themselves into the reconstruction of the Gem Land in a hurry. The speed of recovery and reconstruction was even faster than that of the Silver Gate.
However, since the location of Gem Land is inside the Dragon Ridge Mountains, transportation of resources is not convenient. Therefore, the current development of Gem Land is still mainly based on agriculture and basic industries, and all labor force is consumed in the development of these two aspects.
Although the Gem Land has explored some abandoned gem veins nearby, due to labor issues, only two veins close to the Gem Land have been restarted, and the foundation of the gem industry has been simply cultivated.
After a brief tour of the Gem Land, Roland met with the Gem Land's highest administrative official and the patriarchs of various goblin clans to confirm that the Gem Land was developing smoothly. After confirming that there were no errors based on various previous administrative reports, Roland left the Gem Land with Hela.
After leaving the Gem Land, Roland took Hela and ran directly to the Silver Gate.
Originally, Roland planned to teleport directly back to Apocalypse after opening the treasury, but Roland obtained the permission token for the Silver Forge in the library, so Roland prepared to go to the Silver Gate and open the Silver Forge.
As a country founded by dwarves, the Kingdom of Clans naturally attaches great importance to the foundry industry, especially since their supernatural powers are all based on runes. Among them, the proportion of rune craftsmen among supernatural beings is particularly high. Basically, every supernatural being works as a part-time rune craftsman.
In addition, the clan countries have huge demands for various rune puppets and rune equipment.
Therefore, under the promotion of extraordinary craftsmen, the Kingdom of Clans built one large forge after another in the Dragon Ridge Mountains. These large forges, which concentrated the resources of the entire Kingdom of Clans, also combined the wisdom of countless rune craftsmen.
Therefore, depending on the design and applied rune technology, each forge has its own characteristics, but the effects are all very powerful. All legendary equipment in the Kingdom of Clans is basically made with these forges.
For example, the Dwarf Crown was forged by the Dwarf King himself using a forge.
Even some legendary equipment in human history, their initial embryos were forged from these forges.
As far as he could remember, even in the Age of Strange Machinery, these forges were still the core force used by the machine makers in the Dragon Ridge Mountains to create strange machinery.
The Silver Forge is one of the large forges built in the Dragon's Back Mountains.
