Vol 3 Chapter 39: flood

, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the original wizard!
It is summer, and months have passed since the last castle night banquet. The continuous heavy rain washed over the entire territory of the tower. The gentle Runguang River gradually became manic in this heavy rain. It carried turbulent floods and hit The new luminous city.
The entire Yeguang City turned into Zeguo almost overnight. Ace led the apprentices and tried hard to introduce waterlogging into the river with water elemental magic, but it still inevitably caused losses.
The farmland outside the city cut off the ditch connection with the river in time. The apprentices braved the rain to build a river embankment near the farm, and successfully kept the grain harvest during the heavy rain.
Ace stood by the embankment, watching the turbulent flood, thinking in her heart.
Fortunately, the entire Yeguang City is located on a relatively high ground. As long as the rainstorm subsides, the waterlogging will slowly fade away, but this is not a feasible strategy. If the city waterlogged by the rainstorm every year, wouldn’t it be endless trouble?
Must be completely resolved! After a large number of people gathered together, water consumption became a big problem. The water supply and drainage channel system of Yeguang City must be built, and Ace made up his mind.
He does not intend to go beyond the status quo to engage in a modern water supply and drainage system. As early as in the previous life, the developed tap water supply system and drainage system in the ancient Roman era was already world-famous.
The technical level of mortals in this world can completely match the technical level of the ancient Roman era. There are no technical problems in building a grand and complete classical water diversion and drainage system.
After the torrential rain, Ace organized the apprentices to excavate the upper reaches of the river. Only four tributaries of the Runguang River converged in the entire valley without forming a midway lake.
After several days of investigation, Ace finally selected a high-lying river section where all the four tributaries were gathered, where they will use secondary fossils to excavate mud to create a large artificial reservoir.
This reservoir will have multiple functions such as water storage and flood resistance during heavy rains, normal water storage for irrigation, water supply for cities through diversion channels, and opening of gates during dry seasons.
This is a huge project. If it weren't for this kind of magical infrastructure team composed of wizards and apprentices, based on the reality and productivity of this world, heroes would never be able to engage in this kind of lowly work.
Only relying on mortals, even if there are tens of thousands of people, it will take two or three years, and with excellent scholars to design and calculate, it is possible to complete the complex and complete water storage such as reservoirs, diversion canal systems, drainage 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 also different from the previous life. Ace directed the apprentices to convert all the soil on both sides of the river into solid stones, and after ensuring that the river flows normally, all the land around the river was softened with secondary fossils.
Dana's skilled use of magic crystal shaping spells created dirt excavation tools and quickly emptied the dirt in her subdivision construction area.
Other apprentice wizards exchanged points for Dana's skills through the magic book, and also used the magic crystal shaping spell skills similar to Dana, and the construction was fast. It is expected that it will be completed in two days.
Ace has newly opened the points redemption function. Social practice points and actual combat practice points can be exchanged for another type of points at a ratio of two to one. Apprentices can still accumulate two types of points even if they only engage in social practice.
Dana even gained a lot of points far beyond the points required for further education because the apprentices exchanged her magic crystal shaping skills, and the points required for graduation are getting closer.
In about three days, the wizard apprentices, led by Ace, initially excavated a huge pit with a water storage capacity of more than 100 million cubic meters.
Carlosso is proficient in the use of turning mud into stone to produce standard masonry. This spell is his most frequently used spell in the past six months, and it is also the most frequently used spell by most wizard apprentices.
When Carlosso was producing the masonry, Dana walked slowly to him, and said with a serious expression of appreciation:
"Carroso, we are going to build a semi-circular arc-shaped main dam with a height of 50 meters and a length of 300 meters. Because of your excellent performance in building the city wall in the early stage, I recommend you to take charge of one section of it to Master Ace. Come with me. "
After hearing Dana's words, the skinny Carlosso turned the last mud brick in his hand into masonry, got up and walked with Dana.
If someone looks down from the sky, they will find that the valley where the towers are located is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. The entire valley is like a fan, widening toward the southeast, and most of the plains are in the southeast.
And the location of Ace's reservoir is right at the turning point from the mountain to the valley. The terrain drops abruptly 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 be solely responsible for the construction of the reservoir and dam.
Under her leadership, the apprentices successfully built a giant stone about 50 meters high, 300 meters long, and 10 meters thick in about a month, and piled up a lot of soil on both sides of the stone dam. , Thicken it to nearly 30 meters.
Directly in front of the dam is a gate group about fifty meters long. There are 30 pairs of gates inside and outside. The gates are special enchanted iron gates with reinforced rune arrays inscribed on them, and they are connected to the movable pulley block on the dam with iron cables.
After the dam was completed, Ace led the apprentices to cast spells, turning the solidified rocks on both sides of the river into loose mud. The uncontrolled river water 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 diversion canals~EbookFREE.me~ to divert the water from the reservoir to the city, and then he returned to the city of Yeguang and summoned Leon, chief administrative officer:
"Leon, you are responsible for arranging the manpower to manage the storage, discharge and water supply of the reservoir. 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 work for Leon, Ace did not continue to pay attention. He summoned Betty and asked her to be responsible for the construction of the water supply pipeline and drainage pipeline network throughout the city.
Betty performed well in the previous mine management, and Ace is ready to continue to entrust her with important tasks to temper her.
As the leader of an organization, Ace needs some supporters who can be alone, so he seizes the opportunity to train them as much as possible.
Ace is not going to build a metal water supply pipeline. Not only is it expensive to build, but it hasn't found any substance similar to chromium metal in the past, and it is impossible to make stainless steel. The metal pipeline has a great hidden danger. He plans to replace it with a stone pipeline network reinforced by the fossil-to-mud spell.
As long as this water supply and drainage pipeline network can supply water to the water distribution towers of each block and discharge the water to the Runguang River through the underground stone pipe network, the project can be considered a success.
