Dream hovered down to the land above the facility.[I've already got everything summoned.]"Bring it out."When he said that, items started flooding out of his inventory. They were assorted and plentiful.There was aircraft for transport, machines for mining, and everything in between. All of these machines were designed specifically for mining in the most efficient way possible. Whether it was drilling, using controlled explosions, or even proximity scanning to make sure they had everything, it was there.The entire operation force had a few hundred machines and over a dozen heavy aircraft. The aircraft was designed not only to move materials back to the facility for processing, but to transport all of the machines wherever they needed to go.After everything was summoned out, Sophia got to work and modified everything. One big issue with being on another world was that they lacked designated sources of power, whether it was fuel or energy. Eventually, these machines would die and th
As the sun began to rise, Arrina also began to rouse from her sleep."...Huh?"As her brain began to run, she noticed her mental clarity being sharper than ever. She felt refreshed, not a speck of fatigue, like she could hop out of the bed and take on the day with confidence. But as she opened her eyes and felt around, she understood that she wasn't where she was supposed to be. Then, she began to recall last night."...Oh god.""You awake?"Hearing that voice she seemed to snap to it. She looked over and could see Dream looking through the doorway from the living area."I got breakfast on the table. Apparently, if you go early enough to the cafeteria, they serve breakfast. I got some and brought it back since you're probably hungry. Hope you're not vegetarian. If that's even a thing here."Dream walked over to the kitchen and put some dishes out on the table. Arrina slowly got out of bed and looked herself over, noticing she was still dressed in her original clothes. She walked out o
When Dream closed himself in the bedroom, he went and laid on the bed."Let's resume our study."After he said that, runes began to form themselves all around the room. From the floor to ceiling, wall to wall. Every square foot had runes forming and soon, magic circles. The mana density in the room skyrocketed.What Dream and Sophia had been working on last night was figuring out how different types of mana interacted with each other. One big question Dream had was, how exactly does mana, formed into runes, pull in specific types of mana?Dream manipulated mana, and his biggest strength was his ability to affect the physical world with mana. His second biggest was creating magic using mana, just simply known as Magic.But Dream felt that he lacked in the magic department. Sure he could enchant, but he was imbuing items with the ability to use copies of his skills. This was what he did with the mining robots and their power sources. But that wasn't doing something... outside reality.T
"I don't have any problem with you leaving. In fact, this may be a good opportunity. There are definitely class 3's over there, and they're just walking bundles of experience for you. Who knows, they may be able to push you up to class 4.""If they're already at the level to where I can level up, this may be worse than we think. But I agree."Riddick nodded and became less opposed to leaving after hearing Dream."Well, I can't go with you, but I can help with any preparations you need. Whether it's enchantments, transportation, or whatever else. So if you need anything, let me know.""I could actually use your help with some things, so I'll take you up on that offer. Just wait for my call.""Sure. Anything else?""Other than that intelligence, no.""Right. Actually, hang on."Dream took out some metal from his inventory and began forging it. He made another tablet and enchanted it."You can use this as a printer. It'll print whatever is on the screen onto a piece of paper using mana.
In front of Dream was a giant sphere of Mithril.After assisting Sophia in putting this together, he was getting ready to carry out another experiment.Sophia had come up with a way to utilize those mana explosions and distribute the flux to other materials. The result was this ball of metal about 5 meters in diameter. Its outer layer was made of grade 4 Mithril, and the core was made from grade 3 Mithril.[What we need to do is explode the core, which will release the flux to the outer layer. Though the process of explosion will result in a violent expansion of the core, so I've thrown in a thin vacuum layer between the layers in hopes that nothing extreme will happen.]"Fun. Then let's get started."Dream didn't ask any questions and began filling the core with his mana. It took a decent amount, but not much before he began feeling its instability. And soon, it exploded.*Thud*<
After a bit of calming down, Dream had gotten them back on track.They spent their lunch in the dorm and the entire time, the girls were trying to get out of him what he was doing that made him so weak and exhausted. Though he wasn't about to tell them that he was transfusing flux energy to increase the strength of Mithril, so he just told them he was doing his own workout to train his skills.They could only accept his answer and move on with things. The girls ate food while Dream relaxed and soon they moved on to 4th period.Dream and Mara went off to healing, but Dream couldn't participate at all since he was still hurt. He articulated this to Merlin who had no problem and let him just recover.Dream followed them around and watched Mara help everybody. Though she constantly glanced at him, like she was making sure that he wasn't going anywhere. He felt a bit helpless seeing that.[She's got bad abandonment issues. You disappearing seemed to hit her pretty hard.]'Yea. It'll take a
Since the tools he was going to make needed to handle lots of mana, Sophia decided that Mithril was the best choice.Grade 6 Mithril could handle Dream's entire mana pool before exploding, so they used that to develop tools with power comparable to his.Whenever they enchanted an item it would almost never be able to surpass the amount of power that Dream could produce, depending on the maximum mana pool it had. So even after using grade 6 Mithril, the device they made to help condense and infuse mana only had around 60% of his own infusion power.But who said they could only use one? Dream and Sophia definitely weren't only going to use a single tool. In fact, these tools were designed to be used in clusters, and they built 30.The next problem was mana supply. They could have all the infusion power they wanted, but the lack of mana would render them useless. So their next step was to develop cores.Like they did with the core to the facility, Sophia used grade 6 Mithril and created
Three days passed tediously, and Dream was now in the factory.As he stood inside the container for his armor, he stared at the cloud of silver cells in front of him. Although he knew that these cells weren't fragile in any way, he didn't dare touch the cloud for fear of affecting this 'delicate' project.[You can touch it.]"You sure?"[Yes.]Sensing his desire to touch the metal cloud, Sophia stepped in. Hearing this, he threw away all reservations and slowly stuck his hand into the dense silver fog.His hand was enveloped by a metallic and dry feeling. It was like he stuck his hand into a liquid metal glove, not that he really knew what that felt like. The fog was dense and viscous, not easily allowing his hand to pass through. Though with his strength, it was no issue."It's...Interesting. So now's time for the enchantment?"[It is. Three days. Though with how intricate this piece is, things may happen and it could take longer. But no more than 5 days.]"Oh well. I gave myself 4.
