Chapter 836: They turned into ores

The people of Norma have left!

Robb and his group decided to stay behind because they obtained a map that covered half of the mountainous region. The people of Norma were skilled in mapmaking, so the map was beautifully done. Although it was only half of the region, it was sufficient. The other half of the mountains, which was unfamiliar and unknown, could be explored at a later time.

Robb turned to Elsie and said, "Let's prepare to build a mining city here." He pointed to three key locations on the map: an iron mine, a coal mine, and a titansteel mine. He marked a spot between these three points that seemed suitable for building a city and said, "We'll build it here."

Elsie nodded but looked a bit concerned as he glanced at the dozens of titan giants' corpses nearby. These giants were incredibly massive, with bodies as large as mountains. He whispered, "Godfather, what should we do with these bodies? Leaving them as they are might lead to an awkward situation. They will decompose, emit a foul smell, and turn into dozens of horrifying, disease-spreading mountains. This area will become uninhabitable."

Robb replied, "It seems I'll have to dig several large pits and bury them." However, before he could finish his sentence, he sensed something was amiss. The corpses of the titan giants were rapidly changing color, becoming increasingly pale and resembling inorganic matter. Before long, they had all transformed into stone-like objects, stiff and solid.
 

 

"Huh?" Suofa exclaimed, "They turned into ores."

Robb examined them closely and confirmed that the titan giants' corpses had indeed turned into titansteel ores. Several titansteel ore mountains now surrounded them.

It was only at this moment that Robb realized, "No wonder this mountain contains titansteel ore. It turns out this type of ore is formed from the remains of titan giants. The real world truly holds many strange and extraordinary things."

Robb gained a bit of knowledge that he didn't know how to make use of!

Elsie arrived at the designated location indicated by Robb and created a portal. A construction team quickly arrived through the portal. However, due to the stormy weather, construction work couldn't commence immediately. The team had to begin with environmental cleanup, cutting down trees on the land, removing tree stumps, and leveling the ground.
 

 

Meanwhile, Robb flew around the mountain range to ensure there were no remaining titan giants hiding. He wanted to ensure the safety of the new city's construction when he was absent.

Fortunately, there weren't many of these powerful magical creatures in the area. After the recent battle, all the titan giants in the mountain range had been defeated.

Robb also found a massive transmission array deep in the mountains. It appeared to be quite old and damaged, rendering it unusable.

It seemed that these titan giants came from another world. They had arrived on the Mayan continent through the transmission array and lived in this mountain range for hundreds of years. However, once the transmission array was destroyed, they couldn't return, and no new titan giants came, thus posing no threat to the peace and tranquility of this world. Nevertheless, the Mayan people in this mountain range were either killed or driven away by them.

Perhaps it was cruel to eliminate these giants, but if they were not eliminated, humans would be unable to expand their presence on this continent. These giants would eventually become obstacles to human development.
 

 

After about ten days, the rainy season came to an end!

Finally, sunlight dispersed the gloom in the sky. Rain clouds dissipated, and golden rays bathed the earth. The entire Mayan jungle began to exude an atmosphere of prosperity.

The newly leveled land for the new city began its construction.

With the existence of transmission gates in Westwind City, the construction of the new city progressed much faster than in the Kingdom of Norma and the Kingdom of Gran. Bags of cement were sent out through the transmission gates, along with reinforcements, iron tracks, food, tools, and various resources that flowed continuously. Countless craftsmen trained by the technical school emerged from the transmission gates and arrived in the new land.

In contrast, the Kingdom of Gran and the Kingdom of Norma had to rely on sea transport for these supplies, which was much slower than Westwind City's method.

Perhaps the only factor limiting the rapid development of Westwind City was its population!

After all, Westwind City was not a large nation but a small city-state. Despite years of development, its population was only around fifty to sixty thousand. The number of workers that could be allocated to the new land was limited. It was not possible to send thousands of people to establish colonies in the new land, as large nations could do with a single fleet.

Of course, Robb's benevolent attitude towards the Mayan people gained him the support of almost all Mayan tribes on the Mayan continent. Many Mayan people joined in the construction of the city-state, partially compensating for Westwind City's biggest weakness. However, the technological knowledge possessed by the Mayan people was significantly outdated. They could only perform simple physical labor and repetitive tasks and were unable to engage in more complex technical work.

Year 1351, deep into autumn!

The first railway on the new continent was finally completed. This railway started from the port of the Kingdom of Gran on the eastern coast, passed through a mithril mine controlled by the Gran people, a mining town under the jurisdiction of Westwind City, and then traversed through the village of the Gada tribe, heading west. Along the way, it passed through two small Mayan tribes and even a supply station of the Norma people, ultimately reaching the Titansteel town controlled by Westwind City.

This is the first railway on the new continent, and its significance is extraordinary.

It not only broadened the horizons of all the Mayan people but also surprised the Norma people.

To be honest, even the Norma people were seeing this thing for the first time!

When the team from Westwind City, responsible for laying the tracks, passed by the Norma supply station, dozens of Norma people who were stationed there wanted to rush out and confront the Westwind warriors, disrupting their "suspicious" track-laying activities. However, due to Robb's authority, those Norma people held back.

Then, on the day the train started running, those Norma people stood by the railway, dumbfounded, as they watched the big train approaching from a distance, whistling, and stopping next to their supply station.

Elsie and a group of Westwind warriors jumped off the train and waved at the bewildered Norma people, smiling, and said, "We plan to make this place a station as well. If you want to take the train between Shuangqing City and Jingguan City in the future, you can get on board. But remember, the fare must be paid, not a single copper coin less."

The Norma people could only ask in a puzzled manner, "Where is Shuangqing City? And where is Jingguan City?"

Elsie chuckled and said, "Jingguan City is our mithril mine town, and Shuangqing City will be the newly built city in the Western Mountains."

The Norma people looked embarrassed and said, "Why should we go to these two cities? It has no meaning to us!"
