155 A Mega City's Foundation

It had been around a month since Daedalus and Grite had finished building the teleportation plaza. Daedalus had managed to make his plan for the foundation in this time and was working on getting the materials for building the foundation.

Most of the material was specialised concrete with shards of living metal throughout, for strengthening it, and ma.s.sive living metal rods that could go from one side of the city to another. Inevitably the living metal rods where incredibly difficult to make as they had to be long enough to go from one side of the city to another, and Daedalus planned for the city to be five thousand kilometres in every direction.

Daedalus planned for these living metal rods to connect together around the centre of the city just under where the palace would be, this was to make a large and solid dish like structure that split off throughout the city. As everything in the city would be connected through this Daedalus also had to setup formations on each rod for both protecting the rods from damage but also to gather mana. Daedalus of course gave this as a task to Grite, who was not the happiest.

So with his plans made Daedalus began to work on the materials for the city. In the first few days Daedalus built a manufacturing building just to the south of the teleportation plaza. After that Daedalus began the process of slowly building up the amount of living metal he had as well as getting the concrete mixer ready.

A few months later Daedalus could be seen sitting in front of a rather large pile of s.p.a.ce rings. In each ring there where an enormous amount of materials. Just to the side of this pile was an even smaller pile, they contained all of the five thousand kilometre long living metal rods.

Daedalus first spent a few weeks simply resting and spending time with his family. After a while Daedalus realised he had to deal with the city. At that point Rudra appeared and asked what was going on to take so long. Daedalus smiled at this and said "Just in time."

Rudra raised an eyebrow by Daedalus continued saying "I need your help."

Rudra nodded and said "What with?"

Daedalus then took his time to explain that he was building a city. He also said that he would allow Rudra's sect to recruit in this city as well as have a smaller palace of its own. In the end Rudra agreed to help Daedalus with manpower which gave Daedalus much joy.

A few weeks later Rudra and Daedalus, but mainly Daedalus could be seen guiding hundreds of disciples on where to take things for building the foundation. They had started three days earlier and sadly they had to stop twenty inner disciples from ruining everything just because they where unsatisfied with having to work.
