Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth

Chapter 132: High Tower Test-taker

Groups of people just rode on the rising platform and came to the construction front line.

On the side of the road, the first thing that catches the eye is the brilliant sea of ​​trees reflecting the golden light. This open and beautiful scene dispels many people's fear of being at high altitudes.

In the end, most of the people stayed. Only a few scattered people got dizzy when they looked down, shook their heads and left.

"I'm really sorry, I, I have no problem walking on the road, but as soon as I walk to the edge, I can't even breathe..."

Some people who are afraid of heights left the construction front line.

But the remaining people actually felt guilty looking at the high altitude, thinking that working here must be quite dangerous.

Maybe dwarves would be more suitable for this place, after all, there are many steep cliffs in the mountains.

Even though the place where dwarves live cannot see the sun, there are many places where people need to work at high altitudes.

After initially selecting a group of relatively reliable pavers, project director Bud began to arrange specific construction plans.

Construction requires a team of at least two people, who need to wear a "safety rope". One of the two people is responsible for guarding the rope and maintaining stability, and the other is responsible for repairing the road.

As one thing is established, the road continues to extend little by little.

There are transport mine cars sliding along the railway tracks from Changhu Town and even River Valley City, transporting batches of materials to maintain the smooth progress of the project.

As the road construction project progressed, this news also alarmed Thorin, who was in the mountains. He quickly came to ask about it, and Bard also told Levi's plan.

"hiss--"

After the Lonely Mountain Expedition, Thorin and Bard came to Changhu Town side by side again after a few months. The two stood together and raised their heads to look at the majestic sky road together.

Thorin was not surprised at the sudden start of this huge project, but more sighed.

When it comes to construction, dwarves have a considerable say.

"I can see that your paving workers here are not very skilled."

Thorin looked at the workers on the side who were still trying to pave the road and shook his head.

"Yes, it is the first time for them to come to such a high place. No matter how high they were before, they would never be higher than the palace. This is a bit unexpected."

Bard stated, but Thorin raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Maybe it's high for you, Uncle Bud."

"But if you can go deep into the mountains or into some deep pits, you will find that this height is nothing."

"We often work in places like this. The biggest difference between this place and those canyons full of minerals is that it is a little brighter."

The sky and the mountain domes, the green forest and the stone thorns and the underground undercurrents, these things are even more dangerous than the latter, and the latter is even more dangerous.

"The industry and bravery of the dwarves are unmatched by any other race."

"Okay, okay."

Bud admitted that he was ill-informed and said:

"Then what does the King Under the Mountain think of our project?"

Thorin smiled slightly.

"As an ally who helps each other, I cannot stand by and let you continue to do your job in this inefficient way," he said.

"The clumsy methods you have come up with are just following our old path, but seeing you groping in the dark on the path we have already walked is not the way of an ally."

"Why not ask someone with more experience for advice?"

Thorin looked like a stranger and stretched out his hand to pat Bard on the shoulder. However, due to his lack of height, he stopped awkwardly in the air when he reached halfway.

Bud obviously saw Thorin's embarrassment. He naturally stretched out his hand and shook Thorin's hand.

Maybe next time we can sit and talk about things…

Bud thought to himself.

This way Thorin can reach him.

"I am very grateful, my dear King under the Mountain. I will remember this kindness."

Facing this proud king, Bard obviously knew what to do. He has accumulated enough experience in previous interactions with Thranduil.

——When talking to this kind of person who likes to beat around the bush and doesn't like to admit it, just follow his lead.

Thorin was obviously quite impressed by Bard's respectful and humble attitude.

He said: "You're welcome, after all, I'm not here specifically for this matter."

This sentence always feels familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere.

Bud hesitated to speak.

"I will arrange for the most hardworking dwarves in Erebor to help you adapt to this project, and by the way, I will show you how we usually work."

In just a few sentences, the technical assistance work was completed in one discussion.

Following this topic, the two discussed food cooperation for a while, including various meats and wines, as well as various characteristics of River Valley City or Changhu Town.

After discussing these things, Thorin suddenly asked:

"Where's Levi?"

This project doesn't look like it's been going on for a long time, but where is the project's sponsor?

"Levi has returned to the roadside fort. He said that he has collected enough 'elements (Vis)' and is now going to study something."

"Sounds like our old friend has taken up the wizarding trade."

"He's a bit like a wizard, and sometimes what he says is more mysterious than those wizards."

mystery--

Mysterious indeed.

After confirming that the project could proceed smoothly, Levi hurried home and began his follow-up research.

At this moment, all the types of elements have been unlocked, and a lot of knowledge points have been accumulated. It's time to study the unknown knowledge.

Holding a pen and ink in his hand, Levi opened the magic manual, opened the cover, and checked the knowledge recorded on it.

Chapter 1: Basics.

Basics, as the name suggests, records the basic common sense of mysticism.

There are very few things to study in this chapter, most of which are introductions to various common mystical things and materials.

Only those that involve specific methods need to be studied.

For example, the "node in the jar", this is a magic that can put the node into the jar and take it away. Its research involves five elements and 13 connection steps.

"The familiar feeling is back, all back..."

Levi sighed and copied down the first research notes with pen and ink.

The study of mysticism is more like a puzzle game than research. You only need to connect two or more elements at the starting point and the end point - using elements related to them.

For example, to connect the two elements of ‘water’ and ‘earth’, we need to put a ‘life’ element in the middle, because life is composed of water and earth.

Only elements that are similar like this can be connected.

After the connection is successful, the notes you copied down will become a well-researched note. Using the notes, you can learn the corresponding knowledge.

If the connection fails, then the note will be useless and you have to copy another copy to study again.

The initial research is always simple and can be completed in a few steps.

The more you go on, the more elements you need to connect, and the more complicated the problem-solving steps are, which often make people's brains hurt.

In the past, Levi was more accustomed to using some special tools or websites to calculate the best connection combination, and at worst he could copy other people's answers.

But now, there are no tools for him to use, and everything can only be done by himself.

Fortunately, this kind of puzzle game is still quite simple, and you can understand it with a little brainpower. In addition, Levi has collected enough elements during this period, so it doesn’t matter if they are wasted. At worst, you can start over.

So the journey of solving problems for the tower problem-solver began.
