Chapter 2579: 2579. Small Parts Crafting
The blueprints were something that were more complicated than what Walker had expected would come together for anything they were designing.
The smaller pieces that were diamond shapes would need unique rune patterns carved in to them. This would make them extremely delicate until they could be affixed to the entire tool and held together by the connected manas flowing through.
The even smaller and more fragile parts that would be moving the diamond shaped parts that showed terrain would need tougher carvings because of the wooden materials. This was simple in terms of producing them over and over but not as simple in terms of bringing them together.
These wooden pieces were what would make the manas more in tune with their natural flow. It would be bridging the gap between the carved mana runes formations and how the mana naturally wishes to flow.
If the wooden parts and the metal parts clashed they could break or if one could not handle the mana appropriately, they could cause a pulse of mana breaking everything. It was intense and delicate.
Seeing the separated parts drawn out, Walker could recognize the life mana runes. They were one of the rarer and lesser understood runes so far. He knew that they would remain as such because the ability to manipulate life mana was focused on few healers along with hard for crafters to grasp as well.
He himself struggled to even use his own life mana and share the knowledge he had about how to use it. Alice had surely been studying it too but she would never admit it until she had more results. Her work in creating groups of healing music performers had been a small secret a few of the higher up Genesis officials had noticed lately.
Refocusing, Walker realized that with the life mana rune known to them, they could use it not as a way to absorb and utilize life mana but a way to sense it better. This would mean that they would understand already where life mana gathered and Walker would potentially be able to know when a life elemental plane was connected to a bridge.
If that were to happen, he could learn a great deal to share with others. He might even be able to grasp why life mana was able to meld well with Space mana as a whole. There was a lot more to it and he knew that.
The intricate reasons and formations of manas were deeper when it came to the many unique forms of mana. Life, death, space, time all had something that allowed them to flow and mix at different levels than what he could grasp.
The very core of what allowed them to spark growth and a cycle, he could imagine the reasons much greater than what he saw now. He knew his perception was growing as well, it in time he would learn more.
"What are you working on now?" Jan had started to carve in to a small piece of wood. It seemed to be a smaller part of what could be a cage for another part.
"This will be the mana cage for water mana. This tree is a floating sycamore. It's harder to work with because it becomes brittle unless it is left in water. But it can trap water mana and let it mix better with other manas. It's why I can fuse some fire related wood materials together."
Walker glanced at the blueprints. He already knew that the wandering blacksmith was working on the metal golem cores so that he could fuse them with a wood golem core. However, he could see where the various cores would hold separated manas to mix in to a central core.
The way that it was drawn focused on allowing the manas to rotate around the same ways that the elemental planes would also rotate around the world. The craftsmen had all seen what Walker had in his vision and what they could do to follow his explanations.
Their vision and his explanations while Walker even used manas to showcase what the flow should be was enough. It isolated more and more their ideas of what the elemental planes were. For them, this was enlightening about how mana worked at a larger scale.
Accomplishing this, they would also be able to see the core of what the world could be and how there would be better ways to forge or craft new materials.
"The wooden golem core is here." Walker sensed the delivery man who was dropping it off and grabbed the core.
"This came from a wandering plains golem. I know they are rare and come from degrading forests but it's amazing seeing the core. I didn't know that they were Even able to form the same way that the metal or ore golems form. Even rock golems."
Walker felt he had missed this interesting monster. Although he was looking for more knowledge he felt that departing earth, water, wind, and even life mana within it. It would be an amazing material that would allow for the melding of metallic metals flowing through it too.
The runes that would mix would be ideal as well. There would be many ways for there to be variable manas that could move through and along without issues. It was solid and very natural.
"This is the golem core array I want to set up. There are turns for water that will go to the blue streaked iron gore core here…" Abe was rambling more and more as he realized just what he could accomplish.
The wandering blacksmith was showcasing the mana gems he could press in to each core and how he would be able to carve turns that mixed with the turn formation Abe had planned.
Walker was basically there to show the clashing of manas and also to halt them when he had more information about materials. The all around appraisal was offering chances to show off unique portions of information that others might miss.
The quality in materials or potential weak points was better shown by the alls round appraisal skill than what was shown by most appraisals down by these three craftsmen. Not that they didn't have incredibly potent skills in appeasing and discerning quality themselves. It was just an over arcing ability to sense and find more details outside the normal information that Walker was able to hand to them.
"I will carve this, then heat the metal to be folded around that wooden golem core." The wandering blacksmith stood and began making his move. In total, this meant that twenty cores would be used to make the central core and then an additional thirty would move around that central core.
From that, he would be able to fix the smaller pieces which worked with the smaller diamond parts that made terrains. Each core would absorb information and manas to shape the overall tool. It just came down to having the right runes.
"I can see what you all mean, but why this rune formation and the materials. Does it need to be so resistant to wind, water, and fire damage? Then this formation protects from dark mana decay too."
"That's so the manas will condense and act like the environments there." Jan calmly responded before returning to the small pieces he was carving before helping the wandering blacksmith as well.
Walker paused though. He hadn't realized they were not simply making a map of the world that would accurately shown terrain.
No. They had thought beyond that.
Well beyond that.
These three crafters were looking at making a larger tool that perfectly mimicked the terrain and environments as they changed.
Water mana would gather to look like the pond, stream, or ocean there in the world. The red flames in the lava fields would also gather and show in the globe they made. Even the wind currents would be shown.
It would all be able to be seen safely within the depths of the Genesis building in real time if a secondary tool was close enough to gather accurate information.
This meant new dungeons would show signals to prowl and so would stagnant mana areas. It would all work together constantly to show a true world image to them.
"This will be amazing." Walker threw himself in to helping with more energy before. He gave up on other thoughts and entirely I vested in what he could do. There was no point in anything else. His intensely potent mana manipulation was what they needed to begin shaping smaller parts.
Time was nothing to them right now. They could focus on time at another day. They only cared about the main focus. A tool that would serve the people of Genesis of countless Generations to come.
