Chapter 525 CH 485: EPOCH CHANGING
Sol examined the small army of Mecha with the most significant focus in his entire life. Even now, he could not correctly grasp the sheer excitement swirling in his chest as he looked at this marvelous display of technology.
“This...”
“Hehe. Impressive, right?”
For Theresa, there was no greater satisfaction than seeing the expression Sol was making. Lilith seemed still a little confused, but Theresa ignored her. Barbarians who only swung their swords left and right couldn’t even start to imagine the immensity of what she created.
In the end, a few seconds were spent in silence as Sol’s breath grew heavier and heavier before he rushed to Theresa and took in his arm while twirling with her like she was a kid.
“You are a super genius!”
He exclaimed and Theresa laughed out loud, happy to see this.
When Sol finally put her back on the ground she felt a little wobbly but managed to get her balance easily. Alll latest novels at novelhall.com
“Hehe, praise me more. Though in a less twirling way. “
She fought the urge to throw up as it would destroy the moment.
“I am sorry. Please, explain more about those Mecha. How did you even have the idea of creating something like this?”
“M.E.C.H.A. Anyways. When I was working on those golems and saw the fake intelligence they were given which allowed them to move in an independent way, I started to wonder what would be the effect if those things were attached to humans and boosted with different little skills.”
She waved her hand at them to come closer as she knocked on the golem,
“This is pure dwarves' steel mixed with Mithril and other metal that have great conduction for Mana. It’s a special new alloy I created and I have yet to name it but not only does it conduct mana extremely well, but it can also absorb kinetic energy up to a certain degree.”
She stopped and looked at Sol, wondering if he was still following her. No matter how excited people were at her creation, they generally stopped listening when she explained the process.
“How did you come up with that new alloy?”
Theresa’s eyes twinkled, “Thanks for asking. It took many tries to find the right quantity for each metal but I am standing on the shoulder of a giant in this case. After all, I am not the first dwarf to think about this.”
“Hum...I like it. Okay, the A.I am structured as an assistant. You can input different rules and systems into it. For example, it can store an entire map and keep it in memory for you or it can help communication across the battlefield that cannot be intercepted like Whispers. I plan to create a terminal that can keep track of all information and act as a tower of control. The exact order can be sent to the A.I. For now, only a very basic one but as time pass, the AI will grow and develop...Huh?”
Theresa stopped her explanation and looked at Sol who was suddenly looking all around him.
“Anything the matter?”
“No. I was just wondering if someone from the future was going to appear now.
“I...I see.”
Theresa gave a strained smile which caused Sol to sigh. He should have perhaps brought Kali with him.
She would have understood the joke.
He chuckled and took a few steps until he reached Theresa then, he slowly took a knee until he was eye to eyes with her.
“Why are you kneeling? Isn’t it something hateful for dragons?”
Both Theresa and Lilith were surprised by his sudden action and Theresa bluffed to keep her heart calm but Sol continued unperturbed.
“I do not mind kneeling to those worthy of respect or when I am desperate.”
Sol looked at the short dwarf, with his eyes filled with admiration. What she had created was nothing short of an epoch-changing technology and she made this for them.
“Thank you.”
Only two words.
But those two words contained all his gracefulness and admiration.
“I will make sure your contribution to history never goes unnoticed.”
This was a promise he would give his all to accomplish.
