Master Of None

Chapter  2114. Unity Project

"You are joking, right?" Walker was not sure what he had just heard. Of all the things to be brought up while they were having breakfast, Gil had suddenly told him that a mountain was being built? How wild was that. "I didn't bring it up because I wanted you to double me. I want you to help." This was what Gil thought would be best. He knew that Walker needed experience points from whatever he could get them from. The number of quests that had already appeared to build this mountain and that would be appearing was ideal for Walker. Therefore, it made a lot of sense that he was added to the group for this. Besides that, there was also the fact that Walker was always interested in things like this. "I am just saying, a mountain is a lot. You literally just said that the mountain would be made from the ground up. Then there would be teams to create farms, lead cattle, and then also hollow it out for more homes? It sounds like it is an entirely new city." To be fair, it really was. The earth dragon village would be taking up a lot of space. Especially since there would be a lot that needed to happen so that it would come together. There was a great deal of space needed for the dragons that could not change their forms yet. They had to have the space that allowed them to rest safely. Regardless of that, there was also the fact that Gil had explained that the wyverns would be coming. the earth wyverns that lived right now were not small in number or size. They would need a lot of space to make their home along with a lot of babysitting. They were still learning how to go about life with some form of control. That was just how changing to be a recognized race was. "And think about what might happen when it is done. There could be a larger bond with the wyverns for all the people that help them have a home alongside the earth dragons. Plus, the magma mages and dwarves that work to make the mountain will also be working with Ignus. The fire dragon territory will be changed to have that flow of lava. They will need the natural fire mana." From what Gil had planned out and seen of Terron's plans, there was a lot more detail now. He was certain that this would only expand as others joined in to this. "It will take a lot of control and a lot of mana. What about the runes too? Will we carve rune formations over the entire mountain? we can't just turn it in to a magic tower. And the runes would need to be unkempt constantly." This was a good point. There was a lot that would need to be focused on for this to happen properly. Especially when it came to the potential mana flow that would be needed. The earth mana would need to be condensed and channeled. If it were to flow through this mountain, then there would need to be a proper path for it. Without that, the mana might clash with other manas. "That's why the mountain will have to be balanced with the fact that the other dragons have their villages made too. They will have the balance across from each other with Genesis in the center. That means a lot more natural mana too." The idea that there would be a higher concentration of focus on natural mana was a good one. There were many spirits that would gain from that. Along with the races within Genesis as a whole. They could focus on the natural mana while they slowly but surely used that to leave about the natural flow of the world and the elemental planes. From there, the more nature spirits there were, the more that Genesis would advance. They would work to show off the facts that Genesis and the bonds needed to be in line with the world as a whole. Beyond that, it would inspire more mana between everyone's affinities. Calmer mana that flowed properly within the world's flow. This was all aside from the other manas that would be researched. Life mana and death mana could be studied with the assurance that natural mana could act as the udder to make that safer. The very same could be said about the space and time mana. If anyone was able to manipulate them, they would need some safeguards to ensure that they were kept from losing themselves. Natural mana could do that better than other manas alone. All of that aside, Walker focused on what else this could mean. The size of Genesis was beginning to be laughable. It was not just a city, it was nearly the size of three cities put together. The speed of growth compared to the size was astounding. He wasn't sure if he should be impressed or stressed out. There was a lot more to having a larger territory than what many people would believe. "When I come to help, I will use manas to help balance or build, I do not want to handle anything major." Walker knew that at his strength he was limited. He would prefer to focus on manipulating mana along with helping with knowledge. He had a lot of mental storage dedicated to blue prints, books he had skimmed, and paperwork he had been forced to handle. Therefore, it made a lot more sense that he used that over everything else. "That's all I need. If you start to share what you know about the dwarven cave systems, then they will have access to the proper building records they needed when making it. The same thing for crop growth, the hearing of monsters, and even a few odds and ends." Gil knew that Walker had the memory backed up by skills. Therefore, he would not forget important information. "So, when do we start?" Walker felt that it was fair he had accepted. But when Gil stood up from the table, he began to regret these things again. "Right now!" Gil began to drag Walker away. The small curses here and there from Walker were totally ignored. While he was higher leveled than Walker, he would take some advantage of it. He was sure that Walker would come out of nowhere with something amazing to shock him or drag him along later. It was just another balance that he was making. As gil led Walker through Genesis, they came to a large section of spread out herb fields. Here, the elves and the herbalists that had the proper skills had begun to grow many of the seedlings that could be brought to the mountain. They had used their skills very well too begin the preparations well above what many people would have expected. 'Gravel sprouts

These are small seedlings that have very tough roots. They will grow through stones causing them to break apart over time and become gravel. Hence, they gained the name grave sprouts. They are a very great herb to plant if there is rocky soil. These sprouts love it. While they remain small and only grow four leaves before flowering and dropping seeds, they are very valuable. The flower petals can be used to help create earth affinity potions along with treating earth mana related injuries. This is due to their attraction for earth mana which will attract dangerous earth manas to gather in one spot…' n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Walker could see the alchemy benefits of this seedling. Especially since they would be grown in the toughest parts of the mountain. Any damage they did turning the mountain in to gravel could be handled. There would be many who could control the broken gravel to change back in to stone. Therefore, the mountain would not be damaged. Beyond this, it was an herb that did not grow in to a large form. It could remain small while regrowing itself. The other herbs that he could see were similar. Some of them were herbs that had once gone extinct and had appeared when the world had changed to the natural flow. Alongside the earth elves and the herbalists. These herbs would be returning. They would have a place to grow that would help all of Genesis. The idea that Terron had come up with was looking better and better by the moment. Even if Walker was sure he was being dragged along on this journey whether he liked it or not. Things would only grow better though. There were plenty of amazing things that would come for a large project like this. Plenty of races working together to make it happen. A great unity could come from it.
