Whoop whoop whoop!)

The sub-plot involving the Wolf Person Hog has been triggered, but it is presently just an inconspicuous part of the ongoing large-scale Wolf People extermination operation.

At least for now, it has not made waves.

While combat-oriented players are busy earning points for rewards and newbies are busy levelling up and acquiring equipment, the pace of the game for administrative role players has not been affected by the external war that has begun.

For example, the Chosen Ashman and his roommate Assistant Brickmover, the chief architect of the Crimson Castle, logged in early today and hurried to the construction site in the town area of the Crimson Castle.

Today is a very important day for the pair of them, as the first three-story “residential building” that they designed together is set to be built from the ground up.

If this initiative becomes successful, it indicates that Murphy’s reconstruction work on the Crimson Castle will have truly started coming into effect.

More importantly, the construction of this building today will be the first on the continent to employ the “new building method”, and the two “architects” are unsure if this experiment will work.

“I say, it just feels odd to build according to a diagram without using cement or measurements.”

On the bustling construction site on the outskirts of the town, Brickmover, clutching a stack of blueprints, complained to Ashman who appeared equally uneasy:

“And do you actually believe that their ‘Fossil into Mud’ spell can be executed as we envisioned?

We will be making a fool of ourselves if it ends up looking completely off.”

“Who am I supposed to ask if not you?

You could scour the entire Design Institute and still not find a senior brother or sister capable of using psychic spells to build a house.”

Ashman sighed for the seventeenth time.

He glanced at the blueprint again, and shook his head as he looked at the “model” being built by the workers on site.

It is indeed a model!

The design for the three-story building was only completed for the first floor.

The main part of the model was being built with planks and wedges, much like children building Lego, in accordance with their design blueprint starting from the foundation.

Four planks were combined with prearranged wedges and slots to form a “hollow pillar” supporting the structural strength of the entire first floor.

Because this was an experiment, Ashman and Brickmover didn’t construct the complete first floor with ten rooms as outlined in the planning blueprint.

They put together a model with three tandem rooms, and it took the workers a full four days to complete it.

From what they could see, a proper, square “wooden house” has been constructed.

The workers on the ladders are performing the “roof-sealing” operation.

The hollow panels that have been assembled on-site are placed on top of the square room according to the pre-marked positions.

There is an outlet reserved for each panel to connect their internal space with the hollow pillars below, creating a “hollow structure” enclosed by the panels.

To ensure the structural strength of the house, Ashman and Brickmover made these “wooden molds” quite thick, basically equivalent to the standard thickness of concrete walls and floor slabs.

This makes the footprint of the wooden “model” appear fairly extensive.

“Wow, this ‘building block toy’ is pretty impressive.”

Mud Car Iaido, Excavator Man Outrage, and Half-risk Semi-trailer- the three old hands who were the first to try administrative roles -stroll onto the construction site.

They examine and discuss the “building model” under construction.

Mud Car even humbly asked:

“So, do you plan to build a house by using a method similar to ‘casting’?

I remember you mentioned before about making a building mold first, then letting the Psychic use the ‘Fossil into Mud’ spell to reshape the stone, allowing the stone slurry to flow into the mold, harden, and form.

After removing the outer mold, a standard room would be created, right?”

“Yes, that’s the principle.

It’s not much different from the mainstream method used in our site, except we don’t use reinforced steel here.”

Brickmover sighed and explained:

“Although we have consulted Lady Cui Si and received affirmative feedback, honestly, the two of us have no clue if this will work.

In theory, as long as the Psychic can ensure that the stone slurry flows evenly into the building mold and quickly takes shape, it should certainly not be a problem.”

“Sounds quite convenient.”

Excavator Man Outrage scratches his chin and says:

“If it does work out this way, won’t you be able to continuously ‘copy’ similar houses with one set of templates?

In theory, as long as there are enough stones and the Psychic can hold up, the construction of the residential area could be completed within a month, right?”

“It’s not that fast!”

Ashman complained:

“Designing and making molds takes time, the workers are not proficient at assembling them, and most importantly, no one knows if its structural strength can support three floors.

If it collapsed, wouldn’t it be a disaster?

This is just the beginning, there are still lots of test procedures to be done.

Even if it really does work, this kind of modular construction method can only be used for basic buildings.

The buildings can only be constructed in square or geometric shapes.

If you want to add specific features to the floors or want to make modifications to the architectural details, it still needs subsequent processing.

That wastes a lot of time.

We are recruiting stonemasons, but this profession in Transylvania is considered ‘high-end talent’, and it’s hard to find the right people.

We can only choose quick-witted ones from ordinary workers to start training.”
