MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 97 Ready
【Dawn of the Gray Tower】【】
How long does it take to go from revered guru to unnoticed outsider? For Youni, it was when Goethe began to issue tasks to the following spiders. The communication between the gray robe and the weaving master soon yielded results. The eight-legged people obeyed their master's instructions and began to further process the foundation laid by Pinwei on the spot.
A large amount of spider silk spewed out from their abdomen and was woven into webs and ropes. Those wooden stakes became the anchor points for the weaving of the spider webs. At first, the spiders used silk threads to connect these parts covering half of the lake. Then weave inward layer by layer.
As for how the spider web will cross the lake, worrying about this kind of problem is a distrust of the weaving technology of the tree dwellers. The distance between the branches of the giant trees will never be narrower than the lake, and there is no shore to rely on. At that distance, the spiders can build layers of cobweb paths, and they can naturally do it when they reach the lake.
The first and thickest main filaments protrude horizontally at every other base point, pressing one by one, making the first step inwards to the range of the spider web. Then there is the repetitive work, the spider silk in the front becomes the support behind, and the construction spider can gradually put its weight on the building under it with confidence, and construct on the water surface.
Of course, the whole weaving process is not that simple, and there are many difficulties that even the gray robe doesn't know about. After all, he is not a spider, and he has no experience in weaving webs.
"According to this speed, we can complete the preliminary weaving in one day at most. Then we can start the reinforcement work." Goethe returned to the camp from the lake and reported to Chesiehui,
"But is this enough? If the monster we want to capture is as huge as you said, shouldn't it be safer to cover the entire lake? You can rest assured that with our capabilities, this will not No matter how long it takes, up to three days, the entire water surface will be under our control."
"I don't doubt your abilities, it's just that there's no need to do that. Before, I wanted to use magic and fishing nets to capture that thing. To be honest, it was quite a challenge for me. If possible, I don't want to need such a laborious spellcasting. After getting your help, I have a new plan. The net is still to be done, which can ensure that it stays on the water. In addition, we need to prepare a few ballistas, and at the right time, directly nail the thing to the Come ashore."
Cheese said while showing the other party his newly drawn blueprint, which is exactly what the style of the ballista used by Cangshi has been modified. What's even more valuable is that the ballista in the drawing is not for humans with two hands and two legs. Its mechanical structure is more complicated, and the operator needs to touch more synapses at the same time. The corresponding force required to use the machine is also the same. be shared.
Such a structure was not premeditated, and Cheese didn't know what kind of help the spiders would provide. He originally thought that the other party was willing to provide a sufficient amount of spider silk. After all, the entire spider kingdom is in danger. , It's normal that they can't assign people to help.
The result is that he not only got the raw materials, but also got a lot of helpers, so how to use these helpers reasonably in the task is the cheese's respect for the spiders. Since the other party is willing to help, it is his responsibility to make the best of these goodwill.

"Are these structures specially designed for us?" Although Goethe has no research on woodworking and mechanical structures, those joysticks of different lengths are obviously not tools that humans will use.
Spiders are proficient in weaving, but rarely rely on the woods they live in. Except for a small amount of furniture such as platforms, there are almost no wooden things in their civilization, which can be described as a model of self-production and self-sale. However, this is also related to their eight-legged inability to handle materials. The branches of giant trees are too huge, and it is very difficult to handle them.
"Some appropriate modifications have been made. Building crossbows in the human way will be difficult for you to operate. Pingwei and others will start preliminary processing. You can ask two smarter people to come and help, and wait until the big net is completed. , we need to prepare at least three ballistas."
The meaning of Cheese's words is no longer cryptic. He knows that spiders lack the ability to process materials other than spider silk, so he simply pushed the boat this time and taught them the wooden mechanical structure suitable for their body structure in this way. the other side.
This is also impossible. Due to the introduction of weaving magic, spiders can imagine that they will enter a stage of active exploration. If they still completely rely on spider webs, they will not be able to protect themselves against races like humans. Without their arboreal kingdom, everything from their physical abilities to their fitness is compromised.
"Our records describe the power of human instruments, but that was a long time ago. I didn't expect that I would not only see magic, but also have the honor to see machines that use wood."
It can be heard that Goethe is very happy. He may not have noticed Cheese's plan to grant technology, but the technology is really in front of him. At least after this incident, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com spiders will have the ability to make ballistas. How will this change their lives? It's hard for anyone to judge right now.
The construction of the ballista started soon. In addition to Cheese and Pingwei, Youni and two spiders also participated in the construction as assistants. It seems to be an intention to explain to the latter two. The cheese is very detailed when explaining each component and their role in the overall structure, so that it takes a little more time.
But despite this, the three ballistas had already been placed in the set positions at dawn the next day. From the perspective of the secular world, this speed is simply magic, but cheese itself is a powerful mage, and using magic to make machinery is a way to save his own magic power.
When the position of the winch and the ballista were corrected, the reflection of the spider web on the lake was also completely completed. The spiders looked at their masterpieces after a busy day with a sense of accomplishment. This was not the result of magic, but entirely due to skilled craftsmanship and division of labor.
"That's it. Then we just need to wait until the water temperature rises at noon, and our prey will become active. At that time, I will cast a spell to lure it into the trap."
Cheese looked at the gradually brightening sky and realized that the people and spiders around him had not rested all night. He himself had already adapted to this kind of intensity of life, and it was normal to eat and sleep in the open when traveling before. However, Youni's spirit has reached its limit, and there are also individuals among the spiders who have begun to stand unsteadily.

"Let's rest first, there is still a distance from the best time for action. First of all, make sure that there are no problems with the personnel, so that we can hit the vital point when the time comes."
