Five new [worker golems] five [Builder golems] and five [Maintenance golems] stood before the [Golem molds]. The [Maintenance golem] was tiny compared to the other golems, while it lacked size what it didn't lack was speed, they were extremely agile and could move around fast.

Their speed, coupled with the claw that hung from their back, made them perfect for maintaining or fixing broken equipment or tools. [Iteration[1] didn't see the need for them yet, but it was sure they would show their usefulness eventually.

The [Builder golems] had an interesting design, the majority of their body was a round circular tank, and atop that tank was a strange device that spewed whatever was in the tank outside. There was an option for them to automatically refill, which [Iteration[1] toggled on.

They trotted over to the area storing the liquid [automata stone] filled up the same way the [Worker golems] unloaded. As soon as their tank was filled [Iteration[1] felt a pull from the ambient [automation mana] and the [automation mana] inside the [Builder golems], asking it what it wanted them to build and where.

[Iteration[1] didn't know what it wanted them to build yet, nor did it see the need for such a thing yet, however, it was interested in their ability to smooth out walls and reinforce existing structures with [automata stone].

So, it instructed them to follow behind the first batch of [Worker golems] and smooth out the uneven and hardened [automata stone] the [Worker golems] had left behind.

The first batch of [Worker golems] had been digging in a straight line this entire time and was taking longer and longer to return the further they went. This was a problem, as [Iteration[1] couldn't see what it's [Worker golems] were doing until they entered the range of its [Crystal lens].

It could still feel them through the thick fog and the increasingly dense ambient [automation mana] that filled the tunnel they were making but that wasn't enough, they didn't transfer visual data as well as the [Crystal lens].

[Iteration[1] wasn't about to let this limitation slide since the issue lies within the [Crystal lens], it inspected it. What were they exactly? This was the question [Iteration[1] sought to answer. Maybe if it knew what they were, it would be able to make more and extend its sight.

[Iteration[1] delved into the nearest point of awareness provided by the [Crystal lens] and expanded its senses within it, what greeted it was a sight beyond beautiful.

An intricate crystal lattice of interconnected semi-solid [automation mana] that pulsed with [automation mana] was all [Iteration[1] could see, and it loved it.

The complexity, the sheer scale of it all called to it, something deep inside it told it that it should strive for such greatness, such complexity at all cost, in everything it did, at all times. And [Iteration[1] agreed, why limit itself? From now on it promised itself to always go big, to always increase in complexity when doing anything at all.

[Iteration[1] was pulled from its enlightenment as an annoying ping kept pulling its attention.

//Mana saturation has reached [100%/100%]

//Increasing Mana level...//

[Iteration[1] felt its entire world explode.
