“Harrison, come with me to the weapons factory. For the next three months, the weapons factory will be the protagonist of Dawn City.”

Lide, dressed in a woven robe, possessed a charm that could make anyone of the opposite sex quake. He turned his head to look at Harrison standing behind him, his gaze profound.

“The outcome of the war in three months may very well lie in the hands of our dwarf craftsmen.”

The war of Glory was fought over the economy, technology, and even magical abilities. As long as the gap in strength between armies was not insurmountable, good equipment would become a decisive factor in the direction of the war.

Fortunately, his munitions factory was outstanding enough to make any noble or lord envious.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Harrison slightly turned, respectfully gesturing towards the door with his hand.

Lide nodded, stepping out the door, and even without trying, his elegant demeanor was still captivating.

Ancient nobility.

The carriage, unique to the City Lord of Dawn City, started again, its wheels crunching on ice chips, sounding like twigs being snapped.

Lide, looking out the window at the residents walking through the snow, suddenly seemed to think of something, his thoughts stirring as he looked towards Harrison by his side.

“Harrison, after the war in Risier City is over, we can develop a magical track car, powered by magic arrays and life mages.

The track car could travel throughout the city, establishing a station every 1000 blades’ distance for scheduled stops.

This way, as the city continues to grow, we can greatly save our travel time.

Time is efficiency, and saving time is tantamount to improving the entire city’s work efficiency, which would be a significant advancement for Dawn City.”

“Magic track car?” Harrison was a bit baffled by this new term.

“Yes, the magic track car,” Lide explained, spreading his hands slightly to illustrate the form of the tracks, “We’ll create a fixed track, then place a carriage-like vehicle on top, make wheels that are not prone to derailing,
and then just like a magic elevator, use magic to drive the wheels, and the track car would be set into motion.”

There was also an alternative method using steam engines, but he hadn’t adopted that route because, in his view, magic was far more powerful than the primitive and ancient steam engine.

This was a force that was not inferior to technology, and even more powerful in many aspects.

Why cling to old-fashioned steam engines when advanced technology was at hand?

Although the idea of a magic track car might be challenging, it wasn’t impossible for Dawn City at its current stage.

Given some time, Lide believed that the Magic Industry Research Institute could make it happen.

The Magic Industry Research Institute gathered all the scientific researchers of Dawn City, goblins, dwarves, humans, and now half-elves, boasting the brightest minds.

The combination of magic and technology might unleash power beyond everyone’s imagination.

Though Lide made it sound simple, Harrison instantly understood his intentions, and his eyes lit up.

“Your Highness, if this project can be realized, it would be an accomplishment no less legendary than greenhouse cultivation!

A truly genius idea, your wisdom is incomprehensibly grand…”

Lide couldn’t help but smile; this guy seemed to want to compare everything to greenhouse cultivation.

As if greenhouse cultivation were the pinnacle of alchemy.

“Harrison, this is technology from the Lost Plane, not my original creation.

Track technology is already very mature in the Lost Plane, and I will give you the relevant materials later.

However, although the technology exists, the rules of the Lost Plane and Dawn City are different. Therefore, merging, absorbing, and improving don’t require imitation; we need to create something that belongs to us.”

He paused, “You can note down this project for now, and start to develop it after the war in Risier City has ended.

Currently, the main theme is still war preparation.”

There is a development trajectory for every period, and Dawn City had progressed from initially plundering the population to building new districts, reaching out to the magic crystal vein, and now engaging in external warfare.

Lide had always firmly controlled the development direction of Dawn City; his will determined the fate of over 100,000 people in the city.

During their conversation, the carriage slowly left the new district, taking the spacious bluestone avenue to the weapon factory located on the western side of the Moonlight Plain, far from town.

Through the window, from a great distance, one could see the towering steel refining furnace under the towering mountain peaks, which belched thick smoke and bore the Dwarf’s distinct patterns on their strange high structures.

Like the breeding farm, the weapon factory was also located downwind, so that the emissions from the steel furnaces never blew back into the city.

When the carriage stopped at the gate of the weapon factory, constantly buzzing with people transporting steel and raw ores, Lide immediately saw the present factory manager—Dwarf Forging Master Valen.

Though in the biting winds of Frost Month, the forging master was dressed only in thin clothing, his muscle, cast like iron, stretched the fabric as if it were stuffed with cotton.

He exuded a sense of power.

“Good day, your Majesty!

By the Forge God, I swear today is my lucky day to have you come inspect the factory!”

Valen appeared very excited, his large beard plaited into small braids dancing in the cold wind.

Indeed, as he said, Lide used to visit the weapon factory every so often to check on its progress when the Dwarves first moved into Dawn City.

But nearly a year had passed without a visit from him as the weapon factory had entered regular operation.
