In Warhammer, I am Ultraman Noah
Chapter 9: The response of those who trust in evolution, the swarm of flesh-eating flies attacks
Two days later, the construction scope of the approximately 11-kilometer-long water channel was finally planned. The soil quality was very suitable for excavation, and there were no particularly hard places.
Pergolas for resting are also set up every two kilometers along the way.
Kamo selected some horses that were usually docile and let the knights ride them back and forth on the road where the canal was built to familiarize themselves with the environment.
After the horses are familiar with the environment, they can each pull a small cart to transport food and water.
There was good news from Bryce. The managers of the nearby granary were willing to comply with Ryan's orders and provide food. However, they needed Ryan to sign a document that estimated the total amount of food needed during the project, as well as some special terms. The farmers had to return the food after the grain harvest in the next few years.
More than 700 people consume about half a month's worth of food, so it's not a big problem to repay it spread out.
Ryan didn't feel any psychological pressure when he signed the document, and he didn't even plan to return it.
It is his natural instinct to conquer the landowners and divide their fields. Within two years, he plans to unify this feudal planet and then find a way to restore contact with the interstellar space.
If he can't live without this feudal planet for the rest of his life, then the power of light he carries will be meaningless.
The workers began to dig. The stone bricks used to lay the canals were shaped and cast by Ryan himself with his mind. After eliminating the trouble of opening molds, the town's factory only needed to start work vigorously, without having to consider the size and assembly at all. question.
The flat surface of the channel base and the half-U shapes on both sides fit perfectly. Before being attached to the river, redundant settings were retained in the soil layer to avoid the impact of thermal expansion and contraction caused by weather temperature changes on its structure.
Otherwise, it would be self-defeating if the building materials accidentally collapse and cause flooding.
During the construction process, Ryan casually mentioned concepts such as operating standards or construction safety, which also made Bryce stunned. How to build a canal without first holding a meeting and making statistics on what everyone has to do. Things like how far to dig every day, when to take a break, how to judge when you encounter unfired stone bricks, how to rework or return to the previous process, etc.
Don’t you dig as soon as you wake up during the day and go home to sleep as soon as the sun goes down at night?
Looking at the blank eyes of these people, Ryan was helpless and had no choice but to start writing simple operating standards and let people who could read explain them. They only needed to follow these standards.
Otherwise, uncast stone bricks will be forcibly laid in, which will cause great safety risks and affect the quality of the entire project.
Workers work without a moment's rest, which can lead to fatigue and injuries, which will further delay work progress.
Therefore, after actual inspection, Ryan planned appropriate operating specifications.
In terms of working hours, I get up around five o'clock to eat every day, and work from six o'clock to ten o'clock in the morning.
In the afternoon, it is from three o'clock to five o'clock, and from six o'clock to nine o'clock in the evening, with rest in between.
The construction team for each kilometer only needs to complete the workload planned for the day, and there is no need to add any unnecessary extravagance.
On the seventh day, two-thirds of the canal laying was successfully completed, and the second half of the excavation work was about to begin.
During the construction process, Ryan also laid stone slabs on the outer side of the ditch to serve as a road for horse-drawn carriages to pull supplies. Horses and carts no longer need to travel on bumpy mountain roads, which improves efficiency a lot.
During this period of time, Ryan had been drawing various water valve control structure diagrams, and asked Bryce to help make small models for testing. After selecting one of them, he took the time to send it to the main city of Turin for construction.
Stone factories in the countryside can make bricks, but they can't make more sophisticated devices.
As for Kamo, who doesn't have to work, he looks at the stone road with envy every day.
Only the nobles' castles would lay these roads. Outside the city, there was a large area of compacted flat land with some random stones paved on it, making it easy to stumble while walking on it.
Is it appropriate to use these resources to build a road for people in these remote areas that may not be used later?
Kamo didn't know if it was appropriate. He only knew that he was definitely not as far-reaching as Sir Ryan. Since he couldn't figure it out, he could just concentrate on carrying out Sir Ryan's orders.
On the ninth day, all the water canal roads have actually been laid. The last six days are used to build the control valve reservoir that connects the rivers and canals.
It can be said that the previous projects were just physical work without any technical content. When it comes time to build the valve that controls the water, that’s where the key lies.
Ryan first asked the workers to dig a deep square pit with enough space, which took two days.
They built a ladder-like structure around the edge, laid stone bricks and railings, and then began to work on the entire pit.
At this time, the distance between this simple reservoir and the Agate River was only blocked by a soil layer of about two meters. During the construction process, some weak soil layers could even be seen being penetrated by water, causing a lot of trouble.
However, thanks to people's efforts, the reservoir part was successfully completed. All it took was a well-made device to control the water valve structure transported from Turin and connected between the reservoir and the canal to break the layer and allow the Agate River to flow into the canal. middle.
The success of the aqueduct project made Ryan feel that it might be extremely simple to achieve the grand goal of the future, but he knew that this was a world watched by the dark gods, and those four precious things might be watching here at this moment, ready at any time. Let yourself lose all happiness.
"Sir, what are you doing looking at the sky?"
Bryce beat his waist and looked at Ryan standing outside the crowd. Now should be the time to celebrate.

These workers have never participated in this kind of work experience, but they have obviously completed such a project smoothly. All this is the credit of Ryan and the blessing of the great sun.
Lord Ryan has such ability, why is he still looking so serious and worried? Is he worried about something?
Ryan took a deep breath and smiled, saying: "It's nothing, I'm just worried that the sun will go out one day, and then the darkness we have never seen before will reveal its ferocious fangs and devour us."
Bryce wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "My lord, you are joking again. It is better not to say these words in the future. We are all rough people here and don't care about this. But my lord, you are a noble. If you are in front of other nobles, If you say these words, you will be in trouble. Besides, your presence here is a gift given to us by the great sun. The great sun is omnipotent, how can it be possible for the darkness to swallow us? You see, the sun does not happen every morning. Will it rise as usual?"
Ryan nodded and did not dwell on this issue. Instead, he looked at Kamo. This knight was almost as good as his butler. He shouted:
"Go and buy all the beers in the nearby villages and towns! Write a reimbursement form for the expenses and let the Lord reimburse you. I want the best beer, not the ones that are as light as water."
He looked at Bryce again and ordered: "I want to collect all the hunters' harvests in the past week and bring all the meat here. You are right, now is the time to celebrate. I will write a letter tonight Give it to the lord. He will arrive in person the day after tomorrow to watch the canal opening ceremony. "
Bryce nodded in agreement and hurried out to tell his men to carry out Ryan's orders.
Everyone realized that tonight they could eat and drink to their heart's content, and their emotions became more and more high, shouting the names of Ryan and Lord Gorgat in unison.
When Ryan first came into this world and was crucified, the first words he heard were the crowd shouting his name.
It's just that the current situation is completely different from the situation in the past, even though there is only a dozen days difference between the two.
At night, at the starting point of the canal, where the pergola was first built, people set up simple tables and chairs, many of which were moved from home.
The workers' families were also invited, and a separate area was set up for the children, placed in the safest interior.
At the same time, Ryan is here, sitting at the children's table so that the children can't compete with him for food.
As the saying goes, the right opponent can make oneself appear greater.
On the one hand, I don't want to drink with a group of rough old men and make myself dirty.
But in people's eyes, it was an honor for their children to have Mr. Ryan sit with their children.
If these children can learn one-tenth of Master Ryan's cleverness, and even gain the respect of Master Ryan, and become a knight's retinue, their family will have no worries about food and drink in the future, and they will be able to walk in the town with their backs straight.
But when Ryan saw these children, he didn't intend for them to become knights' retinues and serve as servants to the nobles.
Children who have not yet grown up are the future and shoulder more terrible responsibilities than this generation.
Because it is impossible for the old farmers to leave their hometown in this life, but these children, because of their arrival, may truly come into contact with the real war of this world, and step into that never-ending, dark, and cold war, Only those in the crusade of blood and fire are not even qualified to become the emperor's currency.
There is a high probability that they are not even qualified to be cannon fodder, and that their best future is to just become a coward in a front line formed on a galaxy scale.
Ryan wanted to change this future. He took a big sip of beer, his mind became clearer, and he looked at the increasingly cheerful atmosphere in the field and the people smiling from the bottom of their hearts.
The Emperor allowed humans to survive in this dark universe, so it was up to him to allow humans to survive in this universe with dignity.
"Brother, your chest is glowing!"
The children soon lost their sense of restraint, and when they saw Ryan's chest light up, they shouted loudly, as if they had discovered something terrible, unlike the adults who were still a little worried about Ryan's noble status.
If Ryan felt something, he looked in front of him. The Evolved Truster that he could not call out before was now composed of substantial light flow. As long as he stretched out his hand, he could pull it out.
Noah, light, are you responding to my will?
(Change Circle:??? It seems like I’m the one doing the work lately!)
Buzz—!
Buzz buzz—!
Ryan stood up suddenly, his expression suddenly turned serious, causing the children who were in a mess just now to shut up in fear, fearing that his shouting would make the noble master unhappy.
But the situation was obviously worse than Ryan being angry, because just now, he heard the familiar sound of the wings of a flesh-eating fly flying.
"Kamo, let everyone gather in the shed! The elderly, women and children are in the middle, the adults are on the outside, and the knights pick up their weapons and stand at the front!"
Although I don’t know why Ryan was so anxious to give orders, people have become accustomed to doing things according to Ryan’s orders, and instinctively gathered in the shed according to the grouping they had done before.
Kamo drew out his sword vigilantly. There were seven knights under his command and the corresponding fourteen knights' retinues, each carrying a lightweight one-handed straight sword.
Ryan stood at the front, looking warily to the southeast. The sounds his ears could recognize were getting clearer and clearer, but the others seemed to be unable to hear the vibration at all, and were still communicating in low voices, Rui What danger did Master En discover?

"Kamo, the twisted mouthparts of carnivorous flies are on the inside, so as long as they don't bite their body parts, they won't be injured. And their physical strength is not high. If hit by a long sword, they should be able to kill with one blow. I It can be estimated that there are more than a hundred of these flesh-eating flies. They should be the ones that attacked me before. If the knights take the initiative to charge, how many can they kill as quickly as possible? "
Ryan's tone became urgent. It's actually not difficult to eliminate carnivorous flies. It's just that these guys fly everywhere and don't have obvious movement marks like locusts, so it's troublesome to track them down.
Ryan almost thought this strange creature had left the territory of Turin.
Now it seems that they did not leave at all, and they attacked just when the construction work was completed and people gathered. There was definitely someone behind this.
The early stage of construction went so smoothly, and no one stopped even the requisitioning of food. Maybe it was just to numb himself and make him ignore the various dangers that might occur.
Then while he was relaxed, he came to attack these people.
The people behind the scenes should know that the flesh-eating flies may not be able to harm themselves as a "magician", nor the knights.
But ordinary people can indeed be easily preyed upon by flesh-eating flies. Their movements are as fast as people eating melon seeds, and they turn into headless corpses in an instant.
"There are about thirty of them. If they are hit by slashing or turning around, each knight can kill two, while the knight's retinue can only kill one. It may be dangerous. There is a gap in their skills."
Kamo replied calmly, the knights were wearing armor, like tin cans, and the flesh-eating flies would not attack them at all.
But they were unable to stop the flesh-eating flies from moving on, attacking the crowd. Even if they can take the time to kill all the flesh-eating flies, at least forty people will inevitably be hunted and killed by the flesh-eating flies during this time.
Kamo knew that Ryan did not want to see anyone die.
"Well, my mind power can kill forty flesh-eating flies at the same time, but then I will fall into weakness and can only use physical force to fight."
Ryan murmured to himself, then there are more than thirty left, how to kill them before they reach the crowd?
At this time, the light in the chest became stronger and stronger, and the sword hilt of the Evolved Truster was ready to come out.
Ryan thought of the first time he pulled out the Evolution Truster, the light that poured out completely purified the plague zombies. So now, can pulling out the Evolution Truster this time kill these flesh-eating flies?
He didn't know, but he knew that no matter what, he had to be at the front and protect everyone.
