"Okay, I'll take you to arrange the room."
Then, Su Mo arranged a room for Alice Nakiri in the clan branch building.
I helped her clean up the kitchen and let her start preparing dinner.
It was only then that Alice Nakiri noticed that it was almost dark in the dimensional city.
"It's like this. When no one passes through the dimensional gate and leaves their own world, or when an outsider enters, the speed of time in the two worlds is different."
"And the flow rate is also unstable. Sometimes it's fast, sometimes it's slow. Only when someone leaves their own world through the Dimension City will time become completely parallel."
Otherwise, Su Mo would not have asked Chun Ji to come as a time anchor.
It was because Hestia was concerned about the progress of their looting plan that she came to visit and discovered that the flow of time in the world of Dicuo seemed to have accelerated.
Originally it was about three to one, three days in the dimensional city and one day in the wrong world.
But the situation that day was 477 to , and was much faster.
After Su Mo knew about it, in order to avoid the time flow in the wrong world at any time, he suddenly stepped on the accelerator and simply added the operation of time anchor point.
After all, it is better to let it stabilize completely than to have unstable time difference.
At least, for a world like the Dicuo world with frequent exchanges, a relatively stable parallel time is needed.
After hearing this solution, Alice Nakiri felt relieved.
Needless to say, although she was not hungry yet, Su Mo and the others had been working for another afternoon, so she quickly started cooking.
This time, she tried out the inherited memory passed down to her by Su Mo and cooked a table of Chinese food, which was also well received.
Even Su Mo had to admit that she was born into a professional catering family and had an impeccable talent in cooking. After inheriting the tradition, the Chinese food she made was also very authentic.
Two days later, the resettlement housing project was completed.
Alice Nakiri also gradually adapted to life in the dimensional city.
In addition to cooking every day, she plays with the four little ones in her free time and helps with other work from time to time.
For example, join the project and practice some magic.
Of course, what excites her most is taking care of the fields.
In her words, she was observing the growth of the ingredients.
At the same time, her joining has greatly improved the happiness of life for everyone in the Dimension City.
Even just thinking about the daily meals made Shizuka Marikawa and the others full of energy and work harder.
Hestia, Kanae and the others also knew that Alice Nakiri had joined.
After tasting the food he cooked, everyone expressed their unanimous welcome to him.
For a time, Alice Nakiri became the most popular person in the dimensional city, except for Su Mo, and her popularity was comparable to that of Hestia.
This is also due to her likable personality. She is always full of energy and laughter, but no one finds her annoying.
There is another thing.
When Hestia came over to eat, she also bestowed favors on Marikawa Shizuka, Minami Rika, and Nakiri Alice.
Surprisingly, they all have good talents and have innate skills or magic.
For example, Shizuka Marikawa has awakened a skill that enhances healing effects, as well as a good healing magic.
Nan Lixiang's skill is related to shooting. When not discovered by the enemy, the attack power is doubled, and the movement speed is increased after the attack.
Well, one can't help but complain about her, is she a shooter or an assassin?
However, it also fits her identity as a sniper.
For Alice Nakiri, it is a skill related to cooking.
The function is to make the food she makes add a buff to the eater.
This result made Su Mo secretly guess.
Whether they can awaken innate skills and magic is related to their identities.
After all, whether it is the three Kanae sisters or Busujima Saeko, they all have their own innate skills.
And they all have one thing in common: they are all characters that appear in the original work.
Or maybe, it is really possible.
…To be continued….
Chapter 66: The Dam, the High Elves Who Were Tricked, Hermione's Return and Confession
However, although he made such a guess, Su Mo had no way to verify it for the time being, so he could only suppress this idea in his heart for the time being.
After the resettlement housing project was completed, Su Mo took a half-day break and then started to arrange another major project.
And it is the largest project since the construction of the Dimension City!
He brought Tomoko, Haruhime and the other two girls to a small river five kilometers away.
After asking Chieko to conduct an on-site investigation and provide a feasible answer, Su Mo waved his hand and gave it to him.
"start!"
"Yes!"
This time he plans to build a dam.
This project has three objectives.
The first is to ensure a stable supply of water resources to avoid water shortages due to problems with the river in the future.
Although water can be created with water magic, this is still an unconventional method and cannot be used frequently as magic technology is not mature.
Moreover, once the dam is completed, it is equivalent to having a reservoir.
Reservoirs can also bring a lot of income, such as aquaculture such as fish farming.
Based on this point alone, this dam will not be a loss no matter what.
The second is to utilize water power to generate hydroelectric power.
There is already a lot of demand for electricity in the dimensional city, such as Alice Nakiri's molecular cooking machine and lighting.
Many electrical appliances have been collected, but due to insufficient electricity supply, they have hardly been used.
In addition to the subsequent projects and industrial production, a lot of electricity will be required.
Diesel power generation is simply not possible, the Dimension City needs a larger power generation capacity.
But it is impossible to achieve nuclear fusion right away, and the technical conditions are not there now.
So Su Mo planned to generate hydroelectric power first, at least for transitional use.
The third is the tap water system.
That’s right, Su Mo planned to build a power system and also the tap water system.
Because we will receive two hundred immigrants next, the demand for water will increase sharply, so the issue of convenient water access will have to be put on the agenda early.
Otherwise, do we have to ask two hundred people to fetch water for washing?
That would be so much trouble.
Even if we don't say this, the demand for drinking water is still a big problem.
The original open-air reservoir was fine for agricultural water use, but it was still a little unsafe for drinking.
Therefore, the water plant must be built as soon as possible.
……
Su Mo took the first step.
He squatted down, pressed one hand on the ground, and said in a low voice: "The mountains and rivers are flowing!"
Rumble~~~!
With a series of earthquakes, the banks on both sides of the upper reaches of the stream gradually arched up and slowly formed a valley.
At the same time, the riverbed is sinking and expanding to both sides.
Eventually the river turned into a long, wide-bellied, tight-mouthed, pocket-like piece of land.
The two sides are a row of mountains like a wall, from the upstream to the downstream, from low to high, with a gorge with a large entrance and a small exit.
At this point, the water can no longer flow down because there is extra land that needs to be filled.
Then, Su Mo cast ice magic, and an ice wall formed in the middle of the valley, completely cutting off the possibility of water flowing down.
Then, under the guidance of Tomoko, the three daughters of Haruhime began to clear the gorge.
Because we were going to build a water plant, we decided to clear out a piece of land.
Fortunately, Su Mo had taken this into consideration when changing the terrain, so the cleanup was quick.
After cleaning, the first step of infrastructure construction began: laying the foundation!
However, this first step was a bit troublesome. Even though Su Mo and his three companions were as efficient as an engineering team of more than a dozen people, they still hadn't finished it after a whole day.
This is mainly because, not only is the dam’s foundation area large, but many factors also need to be considered.
At the very least, it must be able to withstand the pressure brought about by the huge amount of water storage in the future.
However, Su Mo was not in a hurry, as there was still time before accepting immigrants.
And it doesn't necessarily have to be completed before the arrival of immigrants. It can also be completed after the immigrants arrive and with their help.
Su Mo was very optimistic. After dark, he took Chun Ji and the others back.
But what he didn't know was that his action would cause harm to others.
In a corner of the Death Forest, several beautiful figures were discussing in the camp with sad faces.
"What should we do? The river is dry. Are we going to have to live on rainwater again?"
"What else? You know how dangerous this place is."
"Yeah, judging from the noise this morning, there must be some terrifying high-level monsters fighting upstream. I don't dare go over there now."
"By the way, isn't there too much noise over there? It hasn't been quiet since last month."
"Who knows, maybe there was a conflict in the territory of high-level monsters."
"I'm just curious, and it doesn't necessarily mean that the noise was caused by a monster."
"Heh, it's not a monster. Is there anyone else besides us in a place like the Death Forest?"
"Too……"
"Alas, when will this kind of day end?"
"Don't sigh. Have a good rest. We will go back to the previous camp tomorrow. It will be easier to collect rainwater there. The river is dangerous to begin with. If it dies, it's gone. This will save us from taking risks every time to get water."
"Yes, Sister Leah."
After the topic was over, they went on guard or rested.
They were none other than Leah and her group, the first group of high elves to arrive at Big Tree Village, which is now the Dimension City, in the original novel.
But at this moment, they were tricked by Su Mo.
If Su Mo knew this, I don’t know what he would feel.
Leah, who was on sentry duty, stood on the tree, looking at her sisters sleeping peacefully below, and then she turned her head to look in the direction of the Dimensional City.
"If it doesn't work, maybe we should go over and take a look, just in case?"
She recalled the discussion just now, and a little sister thought that the noises were not made by monsters.
If this is true, then perhaps they can settle down and no longer have to run around trying to survive like they do now.
But she did not decide to go there immediately, but just regarded it as an option when she had no other choice.
After all, this is just a guess.
She would not take risks with her sisters unless she was sure.
