Chapter 657: Trying on his own (2/2)

Sam was surprised a bit for a second and didn't react. Because Veer said that this place is a tactical point that supplies food for further invasion in long run, Sam thought that they wouldn't hurt the fields severely. But now, he only has one thing to say.

Bullshit.

This place being tactical point is a bunch of bullshit.

The concentration of that weird liquid with death energy is actually high now and the soil will start being affected. They seemed to have mixed the liquid in the stream far away, so there are not many immediate reactions and the water diluted it a lot, but if this continued and the soil kept on absorbing this, it would soon die and become barren land for a few months if not years.

Sam immediately went into action. He took out some energy cells and ran to the entry point of the stream.

The place where the stream enters the town, there is a small pool formed from which various small canals are directed towards the crops. This is to let the water of the stream lose momentum. Except for the fish pond Sam made, every field is connected in some way.

Sam started digging small holes in the ground around that pond and buried the light elemental energy cells and used them as formation nodes to lay down a formation.

The formation started producing vitality. This is actually a healing formation. It can be used in large-scale wars where the soldiers with minor wounds wouldn't need to bother the healers and just sit in the formation to heal with sheer vitality, it can also be used for first aid.

This is one of the recent formations Sam studied.

After placing the formation, Sam placed his hand in one of the canals exiting it, and used observation, the death energy reduced and as he observed the flowing water, soon the death energy is completely gone, in fact, the vitality in the water is increasing.

This would be a good thing for crops as it would help speed up the growth. Since the problem of pests is solved by the poisoned grass, they can just let the crops grow.

Sam looked at the surrounding soldiers who are in charge of watching the wall nearby and knew clearly why they are coming. They are here to question what Sam is doing with that formation.

”The Minotaurs already mixed that weird liquid, half the fish in my pond already died. That is why I laid a formation to purify the water.”

Sam left that statement and left. He already said what he could, he didn't want to explain himself anymore.

He knew what kind of crisis they are facing, so there is no use in bickering. He could only create a suitable solution and try to convince them in the process. If he just stayed still without any action waiting for these numbskulls to understand the situation, then too much time would be wasted.

He went into the town and entered Veer's house for the first time. This place was also included in his deal, but he didn't bother with this at first, but he needs some space to set up a temporary workshop.

He set a table and started creating a new design. It is full body armor for the dwarves. He called for Philip to come and gave him some metal and asked him to make the full body armor exactly according to the designs.

He also didn't stay still and made another armor.

He is a bit faster than Philip, but Philip is not that slow. He really did catch up quickly as he utilized in advantage in manipulating metal.

They worked for a whole day to create the full body armor. The one Philip made is made of metal that is conductive with the fire element and the one that Sam made has water element.

He gave both the armors to Philip and said.

”Tomorrow, talk to the guards who come for wine regularly and ask them to try these two armors in the battle. Just tell them that it is free and there are no strings attached, even if you tell them that we wanted them to test these armors it is fine. But make them wear it.

From what I see, the attacks will become intense soon. The dwarves would surely die and the town would be lost within no time if they didn't take the necessary precautions. There is something going on and it is bigger than just the tactical point of battle and food supply.

If we pull this off, an expert who is at least at a consummate level would owe us a favor and we can even find out some secrets of this banishment realm.

For now, let us just focus on forging these armors. I will see if we can modify the production equipment to make them faster.”

With that, both of them fell into work.
