Chapter 695: Chapter 341: Silent Forge (Part 3)
"Cast the spell with me," Akuya said.
Li Ang nodded. He had been wanting to do something for his teammates fighting alongside him.
Akuya raised her hands, releasing the phantom of transparent tentacles from her wrists, which tore open a dimensional rift, causing the thick magic power inside to flow out like water, appearing as a real stream of water.
Feeling the operation of the magical power of the young girl with pink hair, Li Ang supported himself, holding his breath, driving the Orichalcum to release Ether to participate in the operation. Upon further sensing her spell intent, he added the Power of Nature.
"Rain of Sprouting."
The two of them propelled the mass of Water Element high into the sky. The Water Element that appeared beside the furnace, seemingly as hot as Earth’s core, obviously originated from the authority of the Water Dragon, and most of the magic power required was supported by Li Ang.
The mass of water dispersed into a cloud mist, then descended as a heavy rain. The raindrops pooled into puddles upon hitting the ground, where new raindrops splashed to create water flowers. These water flowers danced in all directions, playing the rhythm of life.
Everyone felt invigorated by the cool rain, and soon noticed their energy recovering, and their wounds healing rapidly. This healing did not even resemble ordinary healing spells that simply prompted wound closure but instead made the wounds smooth and unscarred as if they had never been injured. This healing rain seemed to wash away all harmful existence, granting the beneficiaries renewed life.
It seems my guess was correct. Li Ang looked at the water dragon’s embodiment beside him.
For the shattered Nebis, with the ocean gone, even a water system as abundant as Mengze Island requires the help of the Star Soul of the Creation Tree to maintain. The water cycle on ordinary islands, as Akuya mentioned before, is regulated by the law of elements maintained by the Six Dragons.
What Nebis lacks the most are the Earth and Water Elements, with water being even more scarce, as the total amount of water on an island is less than that of the soil and rocks.
To the remaining water in this world, those raging waves and fierce storms have almost become distant memories. For the continuation of the world, retaining life is also keeping the last splendor.
"Lord Water Dragon, you—"
"Hurry up and deal with the next thing."
Li Ang initially had mixed feelings and wanted to say many things to Akuya, but the young girl interrupted him first, pointing towards the Mechanical Creation Furnace.
Indeed, this is more important now.
Li Ang nodded to Akuya and walked towards the control panel.
Passing by Melegon, they exchanged simple words. Melegon mounted the Falcon, flying to the entrance to inform Loken and the others of the victory here.
Sitting in a seat somewhat similar to those seen in some sci-fi movies on Earth, a floating spaceship chair, Li Ang immediately recalled the operating methods. This knowledge came from the Island Founder’s inheritance gifted to him by the system.
Moving the lever beside him, the seat quickly rose along the track below, bringing him to the control panel.
Seeing all these complex buttons and control levers, Li Ang felt a bit dazed. He tried to recall and, combining with the knowledge in his mind, he generally understood the situation before him.
Indeed, here he could operate the entire Mechanical Creation Furnace, and its functions were entirely revealed in front of him.
It could refine and cast various high-tier materials, the most advanced being the Fake Origin Alloy.
It could process various materials into any desired form, including equipment, golems, ship parts, engineering equipment, and original materials for the Isle of Casting.
However, fully mastering this facility required understanding many profound aspects, which there wasn’t enough time to comprehend thoroughly. Li Ang discerned the need to integrate inherited knowledge with the Melting and Gathering Law to grasp it all.
Fortunately, he could handle the most urgent issues right now.
Pressing several buttons and pulling the control lever, the furnace emitted a dull mechanical operation sound. The conspicuous firelight quickly retracted into the center of the mechanical sphere, and the exceptionally high temperature in the whole facility rapidly decreased.
Li Ang carried out a second round of operations, completely stopping the ongoing production of guards.
For countless years, while maintaining basic defenses, the Mechanical Creation Furnace had been cycling through assembling and dismantling Metal Guards. Since the Island Founder hadn’t developed complex programs, this cycle was to conserve energy and minimize furnace wear. Thus, when invaded by external enemies, it couldn’t quickly produce golems for battle.
Inputting a command to pause, the enormous creation that had been running for who knows how many years finally calmed down.
"Rest for a while."
Li Ang looked up at the massive metal sphere above, temporarily allowing himself to relax and recline on the backrest of the movable seat.
According to the knowledge he had acquired, Li Ang noticed that the Mechanical Creation Furnace was nearing its limits. If it were to be put into high-load operation again, it would be best to conduct a round of extensive repair and maintenance first.
Even without the Empire, just reporting this place to the Guild would earn a large sum of Professional Points. Li Ang thought as he looked at the engineers led by Loken, running quickly from a distance.
