The Primordial Wizard

Chapter 39 The Flood

It is already summer, and several months have passed since the last castle night banquet. Continuous torrential rain washed over the entire territory of the high tower. The gentle Runguang River gradually became manic during this torrential rain. The new Luminous City.

The entire Luminous City turned into a country of floods almost overnight. Ace led the apprentices and tried hard to introduce the waterlogging into the river with water elemental magic, but it still inevitably caused losses.

The farmland outside the city cut off the connection with the ditches of the river in time, and the apprentices braved the rain to build river embankments near the farm, successfully preserving the grain harvest in the heavy rain.

Ace stood by the embankment, watching the raging flood, with a lot of thoughts in his heart.

Fortunately, the entire Luminous City is located on a relatively high ground. As long as the rainstorm subsides, the waterlogging will gradually subside. However, this is not a feasible strategy. If the city is flooded every year due to the heavy rain, wouldn't there be endless troubles?

It must be completely resolved! After a large number of people gather together, water use has become a big problem. It is necessary to build a water supply and drainage channel system for Luminous City. Ace made up his mind.

He didn't intend to go beyond the status quo and develop a modern water supply and drainage system. As early as in his previous life, the developed tap water supply system and drainage system in the ancient Roman era were already world-renowned.

The technical level of mortals in this world can completely match the technical level of the ancient Roman era. There is no technical difficulty in building a magnificent and complete classical water diversion and drainage system.

After the heavy rain, Ace organized apprentices to excavate the upper reaches of the river. There were only four tributaries of the Runguang River converging in the entire valley, and no midway lake was formed.

After a few days of investigation, Ace finally selected a high-lying river section where all four tributaries converge, where they will use secondary fossils as mud to excavate to create a large artificial reservoir.

This reservoir will play a variety of functions such as storing water for flood control during heavy rains, storing water for irrigation at ordinary times, supplying water to the city through diversion canals, and opening gates to release water during dry seasons.

This is a huge project. If there is no magic infrastructure team composed of wizard apprentices, according to the reality and productivity of this world, it is absolutely impossible for a hero to engage in such a humble job.

Only relying on ordinary people, even if there are tens of thousands of people, it will take two or three years, and only with the design and calculation of excellent scholars can it be possible to complete such a complex and complete water storage system as reservoirs, diversion canal systems, drainage canal systems, and tap water pipeline systems. , water supply and drainage three-in-one project.

The construction method of the magic infrastructure team is completely different from the past, and it is also different from the previous life. Ace directed the apprentices to turn all the mud on both sides of the river into solid stones,

After ensuring the normal flow of the river, all the land around the river will be softened with secondary fossil mud.

Dai Na skillfully used the magic crystal shaping spell to create a soil excavation tool, and quickly hollowed out the soil in her subdivision construction area.

Other wizard apprentices exchanged points for Dana's skills through the magic book, and they also used magic crystal shaping skills similar to Dana's. The fast construction is expected to be completed in two days.

Ace has newly launched a points exchange function. Social practice points and actual combat practice points can be exchanged for another type of points at a ratio of 2:1. Even if apprentices only do social practice, they can still accumulate the two types of points for further studies.

Because of the exchange of her magic crystal shaping skills by the apprentices, Dai Na has obtained a large amount of points far exceeding the requirements for further studies, and she is getting closer and closer to the points required for graduation.

In about three days, under the leadership of Ace, the wizard apprentices initially dug out a huge pit with a water storage capacity of more than 100 million cubic meters.

Carloso is proficient in turning mud into stone to produce standard bricks and stones. This spell is the most frequently used spell by him in the past six months, and it is also the most frequently used spell by most wizard apprentices.

When Carloso was producing masonry, Dana walked up to him slowly, and said with a serious expression of appreciation:

"Caroso, we want to build a semi-arc-shaped main dam fifty meters high and three hundred meters long. Because of your excellent performance in building the city wall in the early stage, I recommend you to Master Ace to be in charge of one section, come with me. "

After listening to Dana's words, the thin Carloso turned the last mud brick into masonry, got up and walked with Dana.

If someone looks down from the sky, they will find that the valley where the high tower territory is located is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. The entire valley is like a fan, widening towards the southeast, and most of the plains are in the southeast.

The location of the reservoir in Ais is just at the turning point from the mountain to the valley, and the terrain drops sharply from here, which is a good location for building a reservoir.

Because of Dana's recent good performance and good leadership in infrastructure construction, Ace appointed her to take full charge of the construction of the reservoir dam.

Under her leadership, it took the apprentices about a month to successfully build a giant stone dam about 50 meters high, 300 meters long, and 10 meters thick, and piled a lot of soil on both sides of the stone dam , thickening it to nearly thirty meters.

Right in front of the embankment is a gate group about 50 meters long, with a total of thirty pairs of gates inside and outside. The gates are specially made magic iron gates, engraved with reinforcement runes, and are connected to the sliding pulleys on the embankment with iron cables.

After the dam was completed, Ace led the apprentices to cast a spell, turning the solidified stones on both sides of the river into loose soil. The out-of-control river quickly broke through the original river bank, and the water flow slowly spread to the entire reservoir.

Ace entrusted Dana to continue to lead some apprentices to build five arched aqueducts to divert the water from the reservoir to the city. He then returned to Luminous City and summoned the Chief Administrative Officer Leon:

"Leon, you are responsible for arranging the manpower to manage the reservoir's water storage, flood discharge and water supply. I will assign some apprentices to protect it. This reservoir is our most important water conservancy facility, and we must choose reliable people."

After arranging a job for Leon, Ace didn't continue to pay attention. He summoned Betty and asked her to be in charge of the construction of the entire city's water supply pipeline and drainage pipeline network.

Betty performed well in the management of the mining area before, and Ace is going to continue to entrust her with important tasks to train and improve her.

As the leader of the organization, Ace needs some supporters who can stand alone, so he seizes the opportunity to train them as much as possible.

Ace does not plan to build metal water supply pipes. Not only is the cost expensive, but he has not yet found a substance similar to the chrome metal in his previous life. Stainless steel cannot be made. Metal pipes are very dangerous. He plans to replace them with stone pipes reinforced by the fossil-to-mud spell.

As long as this network of water supply and drainage pipes can supply water to the water distribution towers in each block and discharge the water to the Runguang River through the underground stone pipe network, the project can be considered successful.
