Chapter 448: Move on Parks
The next day, the whole of Sam's city was in full action mode. The factory production increased and there are some new designs coming into play. There are new parts for manufacturing. But the original production was not stopped at all.
Because, there was a rule placed by Philip before his journey that, in the idle times of the machines of the factory, people can make parts and try to create new production machines, like lathes, drilling machines, power hammers, etc.
He said that they would have rewards. Apparently, it worked. After all, most of the workers are cultivators, even though their strength is less and battle prowess is not good, they could still endure the hardship of working in a factory.
They all wanted to work extra hours to become more skilled on the machines and at the same time to get more promotions, but the overtime is out of option for most of the time, as there are few slots for that and to give a fair chance to all the employees, they avoided favoritism.
But that doesn't mean, there are no other ways, most of the factory workers who operate and create some complicated parts are artisans who weren't skilled in their craft. They weren't able to create great weapons and such,
But they are skilled enough to make parts for the machines. And just like that, a new production line was manufactured in three months.
This happened between the lunch breaks and other resting times.
Philip got this idea; he might have thought that the wartime would be a loss if they don't conduct their business normally.
So, he decided to increase machinery and production.
Anyway, now that the new production line appeared, there is actually a great chance for the workers to prove themselves and many of them understood what is happening. If they want to work more, they need more machines and the best option would be to make them in break times if they really want overtime.
At the same time, for the past three months, a batch of new recruits are being trained in the factories for various jobs. These are also the people who don't have much aptitude and past their primes. They couldn't qualify for the full-time student position and can only use these means to get a chance to enter the school occasionally and gain knowledge.
Simply put, the war preparations are being gone on and many new parts came to the production line.
The farming is also going in full swing. All the students who are interested in herbs and farming are given more practical classes. The lecturers of the pharmacy department are busy with making pills, potions and the students who enrolled in the courses will get practical classes too.
The same with Weaponsmithing, Inscriptions, and Formations. The classes are being theoretical and practical and they are going on around the clock. The arena is also full. The new sparring candidates have come from all over the western continent.
Apart from that, there seemed to be something happening in the Beast farm.
Yanwu, Sky, Ape, and Raiju are all in the beast farm and the hunting for capturing lives beasts is also going on full swing.
There is some good news as well, there are some Pre-transcendent cultivators, who newly emerged within the ranks and one of them is the Architect Austin.
A large order of returning scrolls was given to the Space gate association.
At the same time, Arc has hit the peak stage of transcendent and most of the momentum of his cultivation was exhausted here. He would breakthrough to the Consummate stage earlier, that is for sure.
But they still have to wait for some time, but before that, he has to make some preparations.
The first thing on the agenda is stopping the parks and creating some sort of conflicts between the major powers.
The next day a team of people left the city and went to the empires under control of thunder god temple, Lightning Spear sect, and ThunderBolt sect.
The person leading the team is the Sword Marshall of the previous Orion. Since he was taken as subordinate by Arc, now he is working under Arc's orders which implies he is under Sam's orders too.
Sam has sent them towards these empires to do only one thing and that is place some metallic cylinders he created in some places within the park. They omitted the Adrian empire because there are already people capable of dealing with that.
Currently, all the major powers and the associations have only one goal and that is to activate the internal formations and the overall formation of the parks, everyday several tests are going on why they are not being activated, but there are no results.
Little did they know that they are missing some energy cells which have to be buried in some places.
These things are just like the Spark plugs of an engine. All they have is one function and they might as well be never used again once they are placed.
But they are still important. They are like keys.
Sam didn't send the energy cells though, he sent something else after that he called Sirona and instructed.
"I want you a few parks in the Arsin empire along with it chose any other empire within the Usaine sect's control, even eastern continent if fine.
The losses should extremely superficial and there shouldn't be any damage to the core areas of the park."
Sirona took the instructions and left, she didn't take any methods or resources from Sam directly and this made Sam feel relieved. It is always good to work with smart people. They knew exactly what they have to do and there is no need to explain everything to them.
A few days later.
In the imperial capital of Adrian.
The construction team of the Park is still in the city and this is early in the morning and they are starting their experiments once again.
This has been happening for more than fifteen days. They are having trouble with the formations. The calculations are correct and there shouldn't be any troubles. The worst part is they couldn't simulate this. If they have to simulate this, they have to create a new type of formation simulators that are extremely complex and have high energy capacity. If they started researching it, there is no way they would be able to finish any time soon.
So, they are taking turns at this moment and every day one of them will think of ideas and try to activate the formations.
Today, it is the turn of an Old man from the formation association. He doesn't have any expression on his face, except for his body is slouched a bit, and he even a bit fat. His eyes screamed of laziness.
From his nonchalant actions, anyone could say that even he doesn't believe that he could do it. But as soon as he tried to activate it by changing a few things, the whole park lit up and all of a sudden, the people are stunned.
"Damn, did it really work?" The Old man yelled out his thoughts and was shocked, in fact, he is more shocked than anyone else in the crowd.
He didn't put in any effort in this at all, but there is suddenly such a movement. He suddenly beamed with joy. But all of a sudden, the expressions of the crowd changed because the formation is emitting a strange-fluctuations and one of them yelled.
"Everyone within the park gets out. The formation is unstable."
This is the supervisor of this area.
The people inside the park are all shocked and started cursing that old guy.
"You Old bastard, what have you done?"
"If something happens to me, I will haunt you as a ghost."
"You sick bastard."
The old man was last to realize the perilous situation and wanted to run away. But he was too late.
*BOOM*
The formation exploded, and more than twenty Nascent stage cultivators, of three major associations and the Thunder god temple, are all dead with the blast.
One-third of the city is completely gone and even the rest of the city has many infrastructural losses.
The supervisor felt heavy in his heart as he recovered from the aftershock of the explosion. His face became extremely serious he didn't think that something like this would happen that too on a large scale.
They seemed to have been messing with a dangerous formation.
He went back and immediately reported to the higher-ups, they also felt cold, but when the news went to the three association heads the formation head didn't care.
"Are you guys stupid or just born without brains? All the formations are basic ones and they are just made on such a large scale. The complexity only lies in the arrangement, don't tell me you guys can't even maintain that. No matter what happens, I want the whole park activated. Don't report to me until now. I am going into seclusion."
This is the reaction and the similar reaction came from the other heads and they all went to seclusion.
But no one knows what they are really thinking.
