I Am Building The Main City of The Game in Another World
046. Cement, a more magical power than magic! (2))
Chapter 46
"Your Highness, I have brought you all the people you asked for."
Fowles walked up to Joshua and said respectfully.
Joshua nodded casually, but his eyes were still fixed on the plaster in front of him.
"Ah, Ashley, come to my sister!"
Wentini saw Ashley let out a happy cry, and then she turned Joshua's attention.
"It's you?"
Joshua saw John slightly surprised, smiled at him, and asked Fowles casually, "What's his name?"
Fowles replied, "His name is John, Your Highness. He's called to be a mason, and he's literate."
"Um?!"
Joshua's eyes lit up, and he quickly waved to John and said, "You came just in time."
Then he instructed: "Take Ashley in to take a bath, eat something, and look at her appearance, it's so dark that you can't tell it's a girl."
Wendini giggled for a while, then gently took Ashley's hand and took her in for a bath with Tina.
John was moved.
He had never seen a nobleman who was more aristocratic than Joshua, handsome and elegant, naturally noble, calm and calm, like a prince.
He had never seen a noble who was less aristocratic than Joshua. Joshua was so approachable, always thinking of commoners, and even disliked Ashley's dirty and smelly body, and was willing to deal with a pile of plaster.
Joshua pointed to the two piles of plaster on the ground and said to John, "Mix them well with water, and then build a wall for me to see."
"Yes, Lord City Lord."
John responded respectfully, the city lord is preparing to test his craftsmanship, he must perform well.
After a while, John had built two beautiful stone walls when Wendini and Tina came back with Ashley who was clean from the bath.
"Not bad."
Joshua was quite satisfied, and someone next to him interjected: "Uncle John is the best clay craftsman in Silvertree City, and he presides over the work of repairing the city wall in Silvertree City every year."
"Oh?!"
Joshua's eyes lit up and asked, "What material did Silver Tree City use to repair the city wall?"
John thought for a while and replied: "Yellow mud and rubble, the city of Silver Tree relies on the strong city wall to resist the gnoll attack again and again. The city wall needs to be repaired every year, and this year the city wall of Silver Tree City is still Repairs have not started."
"Yellow mud.."
Joshua smiled and pointed to the two walls in front of him and said, "Wait a minute and see how my plaster is. Wait a moment, wait for it to dry completely."
Wentini said, "I'll help you."
As she said that, she made a random move, a faint light flashed in her hand, and a gust of wind immediately appeared in the field, blowing on the two newly built stone walls.
With the help of Undine's magic, the two stone walls dried quickly.
"Who is stronger?"
Joshua asked the group of stonebreakers and lumberjacks below.
"Me! Lord City Lord, I am very strong."
A well-built youth volunteered to stand up.
"What's your name?"
"Bart, Lord City Lord, my name is Bart, and I am also from Silver Tree City."
Bart stood in front of Joshua, looking a little excited.
Joshua nodded with a smile, pointed to the two stone walls and said to Bart: "Okay, I now order you to smash these two walls with a hammer. If you break one of them, I will reward you with 1 gold coin."
"what.."
As soon as Joshua's words came out, there was a low exclamation from below, and everyone looked at Bart with envious eyes.
Bart smiled naively, scratched his head and said, "Your Highness, you don't need the gold coins, but it's just to break two stone walls. It's really not that hard!"
After speaking, Bart picked up the stone hammer and slammed it on the stone wall that John had just built.
"boom.."
After a muffled sound, Bart's whole body shook violently, the stone hammer in his hand almost flew out, and the stone wall remained motionless.
"Um?!"
Bart's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and he swung the sledgehammer "bang bang" again.
Bart knocked a dozen times, but the two stone walls remained motionless, not to mention broken, not even a crack.
"It's impossible, how can it be so strong?!"
Bart cried.
Joshua smiled without saying a word, and instead ordered Fowles to go to the city guard's barracks and call a few people.
Soon Fowles called out several city guards.
There are from level 1 knights to level 4 knights. After experimenting, the strength of level 3 knights can easily break stone walls. Even level 2 knights are a bit reluctant to break stone walls with tools in hand. .
"I see!"
Bart suddenly realized, and said with a bitter face: "Lord City Lord, you have blessed this wall with magic, so it is so strong."
"No, I just used wind magic to speed up the solidification of the plaster, and I didn't add any magic on it."
Wendini shook her head and explained.
"What's the matter? Ordinary stone walls are not so strong?!"
Bart's eyes widened, and the rest were surprised.
"It's the stucco!"
John said excitedly: "City Lord, this plaster is amazing, the walls built with it are almost unbreakable."
Joshua nodded with a smile, and said, "This is called cement, and it is also the material you will use to build houses for the city residents."
The cement used for the two stone walls was exchanged by Joshua from the system store and prepared by himself.
The ingredients for cement are mainly limestone, clay and iron ore powder. There are just a few things in Bambi City, and there are a lot of them. Joshua tried to mix it by himself, but he didn't expect the effect to be good.
"After half a day, the cement is completely solidified, and the firmness of the stone wall should be improved."
The cement is divided into two stages: initial setting and final setting. The initial setting only takes 45 minutes. With Wentini's wind magic accelerating, these two stone walls have passed the initial setting, but they are far from reaching the final setting. At most, it can only be regarded as medium condensation, so there is still room for improvement in firmness.
"It's a power even more magical than magic."
John said excitedly: "With the cement to build the city wall, we no longer have to worry about the attack of the gnolls."
Joshua smiled and nodded: "When the conditions are better in the future, add defensive magic on the wall, let alone the gnolls, I am afraid that even the middle-level monsters and even the high-level monsters may not be able to break our city walls.
Bambi City will be the strongest and most unbreakable fortress on the whole continent. "
Everyone listened with anticipation and excitement.
John stretched out his hand and stroked the two stone walls, and whispered with some trembling: "If Silver Tree City also had such a strong wall, then many people would not have to die..."
Seeing John like this, Ashley's eyes blushed and cried out, choked and shouted, "Mom, mom..."
Joshua was a little touched and asked the person next to him.
Bart explained sadly: "Big Brother John's wife was accidentally killed by the collapsed city wall during a gnoll siege.
Lord Mayor, you don't know.
Although Silver Tree City allows the citizens of Bambi City to take refuge in the city every year, it charges a high fee. Moreover, once Andrew feels that he can't resist the attack of the gnolls, he will force some people who can't pay the protection fee. Civilians took the initiative to come forward to die.
Because the gnoll attack is mainly for food, as long as there is enough food, they will take the initiative to retreat..”
Bart cursed bitterly: "Andrew, it's really not human!"
As long as this name is mentioned, all the people around are full of resentment.
Joshua's heart moved, and he said, "Civilians like you who are oppressed and exploited by Andrew, how many more are there in Silver Tree City?"
"There are at least five or six hundred people left."
"Then if I arrange for you to go to Silver Tree City to persuade those civilians to flee Silver Tree City and settle in Bambi City, will they come?"
Bart thought for a while and replied: "At least half of them will come, and the other half, they may be afraid that Bambi City will not be able to resist the attack of the gnolls and will hesitate..."
Joshua nodded, after all, it was because of insecurity.
Before Bambi City did not resist an attack by the gnolls, many city residents of Silver Tree City would rather be exploited by Andrew than take risks.
People like John Bart were desperate in Silver Tree City, so they chose to come to Bambi City.
Joshua sighed inwardly, and now, instead, he was somewhat looking forward to the arrival of the gnoll soon.
At this moment, Boris strode in and said solemnly: "His Royal Highness, a god messenger reported that they found traces of gnolls during their trials on the Plain of Gold..."
Joshua's eyes lit up.
