Chapter 431: Fog City Talks (continued)

"I once heard a story...... Donner didn't directly answer Natia and the Dwarven King's question, "Once upon a time, the mortals of this world wanted to build a tower, a tower to heaven...... Everyone was involved in this great cause, but in the middle of the construction of the tower, he was discovered by the gods, how could the gods allow those mortals to challenge his authority?"

Donald paused, and continued under Cynthia's slightly puzzled gaze: "However, the god did not intervene to destroy this tower, he thought of a way to do it once and for all...... God divided these mortals into dwarves, gnomes, humans, and elves, and made them suspicious of each other and hated each other...... Since then, no one has been able to build such a tower.

Donner thought of this legend because all he had to do now was to build a Tower of Babel—a Tower of Babel that would lead from mortals to gods.

"I like this story very much...... Cynthia nodded slightly, her expression a little solemn, "but as the story says, spreading contradictions and conflicts among mortals is a one-and-done thing for gods...... I can't think of any way to untie this knot......"

"When the benefits of cooperation are large enough, the contradictions will naturally be resolved. "Donner is not going to say anything about his relationship with the Holy See of Light, as Dean Devis said, as long as he has a clear conscience.

"But we're running out of time...... Cynthia reminded.

"Until our strength is not strong enough to fight against the Magic Continent, this problem will not be fundamentally solved...... I think you'll know what I mean. Downer explained.

Cynthia nodded slowly, "Say, what do you need us to do?"

"I'm going to build an engineering academy and a factory here," Donner pointed to his feet, "and I'm going to need to use your power in the Knight Federation to help me secretly transfer some things." ”

"Our influence in the Knight Federation is not as ......great as you think," Cynthia said, "Except for Patin, the other two paladins don't have a good relationship with us. ”

"In other words, in addition to hiding from the Magic Continent, we also need to hide from them?" asked Donner.

"That's right...... If you're going to make something here that can resist the Magic Continent...... I think no matter what it is, there will be a lot of people in the Knight Federation who will be interested. Cynthia replied.

"That's why our plans need to be done in secret...... Donner realizes the complexity of the situation.

"Hmm......" Cynthia nodded, "We'll do our best to protect the ...... here Now, let's take a look at what you call engineering colleges and factories......"

......

Donner was already standing more than ten kilometers below the entrance to Fog City, and Ball Falls was hanging in front of his eyes, and the sound of the water was amazing.

"This waterfall can provide most of the power ...... the factory needs," which is one of the reasons why Donner chose to develop in Fog City.

"It's going to be a huge project!" Cynthia sighed.

"The academy will be built above, below the factory, and I want to use it to recruit a mercenary group to be stationed here. Donner described the blueprint in his mind.

"Then you'll have to get enough Mystic Metal......" Cynthia shook her head, obviously a little unsure of Donner's last idea.

"Hmm......" Donner nodded, knowing what Cynthia was talking about.

Secret metal is the general term for the currency material used by the Knight Federation, and it is also the best material used to craft weapons, which is characterized by being heavy and hard, and the most precious secret realm steel has long been mined in the entire Knight Federation, and can only be found in the Desert of Courage north of the Far North - Paladins can establish their own huge power because only they can enter the Desert of Courage.

Perhaps, something can really be found...... Donner thought so, but it wasn't time to think about it for the time being, and he had to explain the resources and manpower needed by the academy and the factory to Cynthia.

Over the next few days, Cynthia finally figured out what Donner was going to do in Fog City.

In his plan, there will be an engineering academy built by humans and gnomes in Fog City, in addition to asking Cynthia to move part of the engineering academy in the Far North, Donner will also teach here himself, and when the academy starts operating for a while, the students here will start to build a factory near Ball Falls.

As for what exactly this factory is used to produce, Donner only said one word - magic circle.

In fact, Donner wouldn't be naïve enough to think that dwarves and gnomes have no reservations about him. He knew that the blueprint he had drawn for the College of Engineering was the key to attracting Cynthia to his first step plan.

Both Cynthia and Natia could see that Donner didn't care much about the gadgets and machines he had provided before, so when he said that he wanted to build an engineering school that had never been seen before in the world, the attraction was as great as it could be imagined for the dwarfs who had always been obsessed with mechanical civilization.

As for Donner, he really needs the help of the Far North, whether it is materials, resources, manpower, or basic metal smelting and processing, the gnomes have accumulated a certain amount of experience, which will save Donner a lot of time.

The only difference of opinion between the two sides is in the composition of the academy, Donner insists on being dominated by ordinary humans, and Cynthia's attitude is just the opposite, and the final ratio of the number of people, under the negotiation of the two, is set to be one to one, with humans and dwarfs splitting half.

Although the humans of Middle-earth seem to have suffered a bit in terms of absolute population, after all, the vast majority of resources are provided by the Far North Country. And, in Downer's plan, the school of engineering was only used to develop practical technology, and more valuable basic scientific research was the mission of the Pamplo School.

Of all the supplies needed by the Academy, Cynthia was the one that caused Cynthia the most headache, as Downer needed a large amount of desperate gold - at least enough to build two small experiments.

However, since the Faculty of Engineering would be built in secret, and all the materials and manpower from the Far North would take time to move slowly, Cynthia would have plenty of time to figure out how to raise the Desperate Funds—it would take a year at the earliest for the Academy to be fully operational.

Three days later, when Cynthia said goodbye to Donner, she half-jokingly said, "This has put us all on the line...... You don't want to mess it up. ”

"Believe me, our destinies are tied together!" replied Donner, most earnestly.
