From afar, it could be seen that two people were clashing in the middle of a field. A sound of wooden sword clashing to each other could be heard clearly. One of the people is a muscled middle-aged man using a wooden sword skillfully to deflect the attack from the other, the other one is a boy holding a wooden sword with both hands frantically trying to land a hit."Tuackkk"
One of the wooden swords got deflected and thrown into the air. It drops a few meters away from the one losing the sword.
Suddenly the muscled middle-aged man opens his mouth and said,
"Impressive, it"s only just been yesterday that I teach you swordsmanship but your ability is already better than a recruit that trains for months!" the middle-aged man clasped his hand in praise.
"Don"t make me laugh, I still never land even a single hit to you, Sir Gareth." Hearing what he said, I amusingly laugh to myself.
"Gahaha… Young Master Wyne was obviously a few years too early to beat me, even a few years is fast you know?" he said proudly.
If it was yesterday, Gareth would talk more politely but after training me for more than a day, his rude and straightforward personality take lead instead. Indeed, an enemy yesterday is a friend today, though it wasn"t quite fit for this.
Suddenly a man with a butler uniform interrupted the talking between the two.
"Please excuse my rudeness, Young Master." Said the butler while bowing slightly with apology.
"What is it Sebas?" I asked curiously while rising one of my eyes.
"The iron within the territory and few other metals such as copper that Young Master asks this morning have been prepared" replied Sebastian.
"Good, did the important resource has been collected too?" I then turn my face to Sebastian in eagerness.
"Yes, it has been fully collected just as what Young Master asked." Sebastian nods his head in confirmation.
"Then let"s stop the training for now and continue it again tomorrow, Sir Gareth," I said apologetically to Gareth
"Yes, I will do so." Gareth nods his head in acceptance.
"Sebas, lead me the way."
"Yes"
Then Sebastian leads the way with me following behind.
***
What was waiting for me was a mountain of low-quality iron ingot and a few other materials like silicon and copper. There are also rare resources with high nutrition in a basket beside the mountain of iron.
"Good good good… with this, it should be enough to make Construction and a.s.sembler Chamber." With an excited expression, I take a look at the material and finally casting my eye at the ingredient in the basket.
"Blue Mountain Mushroom, Cyan Star Fruit, Wild Horn Gra.s.s, and much more…." With a surprised look, I took them and examine it closely and carefully just like handling a super fragile thing.
"With Vonix technology it will be possible to process all of this ingredient, Blue Mountain Mushroom could be used as a high-quality nutrient that could help on the progress of cultivation, Cyan Star Fruit could be used as regenerative potion that could help regeneration of the body, Wild Horn Gra.s.s could be used as an antidote and there is much more!" I smiled so widely that my lips almost touch my eyes in satisfaction and stored back the material to its former place carefully.
Unfortunately, my excitement dwindles as I remember that I needed to make Synthesize Chamber first before being able to process the material and Sebastian"s report completely broken my excitement.
"I"m regretted to say this but there have been causalities caused by an attack of a ferocious beast in the surrounding forest, so the gathering of the material couldn"t be continued before the extermination of the beast or if it left the periphery area," Sebastian said apologetically while down casting his gaze.
As Xendra"s territory is near a hill and a forest, there is a lot of natural resources, but because of it, there is a lot of danger and treacherous land around the territory making it a rural area and hard to do farming.
"Well thinking that aside, it"s time to make the Construction and a.s.sembler Chamber!" Then I told Sebastian to order the guards to move the resource to the back of the mansion near a hill.
After all of the resource has been moved. I realize the importance of secrecy and low-key if my secret were to be known by the world, I don"t know what dangerous that might come because of it.
"Sebastian, don"t let anyone enter this place no matter what! Not even you are allowed to enter! Place a guard to monitor the periphery area as well, any intruder that bypa.s.ses the area, apprehend them and if they resist, kill them on the spot!" With a vicious look, I told Sebastian to guard this area as if protecting a great treasure.
"Yes, as you commanded!" Sebastian bows his head slightly as if in a tacit understanding that his Master was keeping a great secret.
Then he left and instruct the guard to protect the outer periphery area of the hill in the back of the mansion.
"Vonix, now that the resource has been gathered, could you construct the Construction and a.s.sembler Chambers now?"
["Positive, it will take around an hour to construct the Chamber respectively, proceed?"] suddenly a monotone voice appeared in the surrounding.
"Yes, and make it hidden so no one notices something amiss here" I gaze my eye to the surrounding and found a hidden hill that fit for the construction.
["Initiating Construction…. Construction in progress…."] Then a white light came out from my body and began to disintegrate the material and start the construction of the Chambers.
While waiting for the completion of the Chambers, I got back to the mansion to have lunch and handle some other miscellaneous things.
Two hours pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye, when I return to the construction site, I found two hidden chambers inside a hill. Their size is around 1 thousand square meters respectively.
Then I went inside with an astonishing look on my face.
"Vonix, what list of things is capable to be produced by a.s.semble Chamber?" I curiously asked in eagerness.
["It"s capable to make a lot of things, Robot or Golem in this world term is one of the main products being produced in the Chamber"] Vonix replied casually.
"Robotss…. Aren"t that mean it will be possible to create an undying army of Robots as long as I have a plentiful resource?" My body shudder from the thought with full of desire.
["Positive, even world domination is possible"] replied Vonix in a monotone voice.
I was quite shocked by that statement and then calmed myself as that was still a long way to go.
"Then with the resource on hand what kind of Robot is the most effective for now?"
["an "All Purpose Mechanic Robot" is the most effective as of now, as it"s capable of almost anything including gathering material, mining, and fighting. With data gathered from the library, an unarmed "All Purpose Robot" is equal to lv 1 extraordinary lifeform or around 1st Rank Knight or Magus Apprentice"]
"How much could we create with the remaining material" Seeing the remaining material at the side, it should only just about 20% or so of the original resource remaining.
["It should be able to create around 50 "All Purpose Mechanic Robot" with the remaining material but I advise for Host to leave a small part of the remaining material to make tools and equipment at the Construction Chamber, so 40 "All Purpose Mechanic Robot" is the ideal amount"]
"Then proceed with the a.s.semble" I commanded, agreed with the amount that Vonix stated.
["Yes, the a.s.sembly will take around 40 minutes to finish"] said it with a calculative monotone voice.
Then I move to the Construction Chamber to see what was possible to produce.
"Vonix, give me a list containing tool and equipment that Construction Chamber is able to produce"
["Affirmative"]
Then a hologram containing the list of tools and equipment appears in front of my eyes. As I browse through the list, I realize the tool and equipment available are simpler and a little less more advance in technology level than on Earth.
"Vonix, why there is no Tool and Equipment more advance than this?" I tilted my head in confusion.
["As there is quite a lot of exotic material needed to make more advanced tools and equipment, Synthesize Chamber will be needed to make it, for a tool and equipment that more advance than Earth does, one-star Fortified Base will be needed to process it"] explained Vonix.
After all, it"s not like you could build anything from nothing. A concrete building need cement to build it, much less a tool and equipment more advanced than earth does.
After I finished browsing through the list, I select a tool that will be needed for future use like mining tools, steel swords and spears, crossbows, and a few other things. As the gunpowder is one of the exotic materials that couldn"t be produced without the Synthesize Chamber, the cold weapon is made instead. Just I was about to tell Vonix to made it, I heard it talk.
["Host is recommended to make Solar Panel as a source of energy for the Robots army"]
I realize that I forgot to select it, it"s good that Vonix reminds me. The Construction and a.s.sembler Chambers already had a Solar Panel as a set, so I forgot about the energy source.
"Then make what I selected and the solar panel as much as needed" I nod my head in agreement and confirm what I have just chosen.
["Affirmative"]
After that done, I found an empty s.p.a.ce in the corner of the Chamber and start practicing my Breathing Technique.
40 Minutes pa.s.sed without me realizing it, I stopped my practice and check the a.s.sembler Chamber. My eyes almost popped out when I see the thing inside. I see a neat row of dozens of humanoid robots around 2 meters tall ready for deployment.
Then I start instructing them and realize that the "All Purpose Mechanic Robots" are indeed almost capable of doing anything. After commanding the Robots for a few minutes, I realize that there is no need to use a word, a simple thought is enough to command them since I have a nan.o.bot inside my body to convey the message.
After checking the limit of the command, I order the robots to gather material in the surrounding forest and find an ore deposit with an ore detector tool that I made in Construction Chamber.
Since anything here has been finished, I left the Chambers and got back to my mansion to continue my knight breathing practice until night and have dinner before sleep.
