Today I spent my time trying to figure out a way to destroy the desert as quickly as I could. What I decided on was building tons of buildings designed to store enough mana to destroy the sand entirely all along the edge of the desert and have puppets go out and teleport sand by the shovel full to the buildings, where more puppets will separate it out into small enough quantities that it can actually be destroyed. Individually it is a slow process, and I can’t think of a more effective method with my current abilities.
This will stretch my mental prowess to the limit, but luckily I won’t have to refine my puppets much further as I have managed to get the large clunky ones to five seconds of survival time, which is more than enough time. And It isn’t like I need to have super fine control either, as I am not trying to get a tiny sample.
So I got started setting that up. The first step was to actually build the buildings themselves, which wasn’t difficult as I already have the design down, more or less. I did make some improvements to it, but all I really needed to do was build the things.
If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
The next step was to fill up all of the buildings, which I am still working on. I guess my newfound talent of draining tons of mana very rapidly actually came in handy for once. It made the limiting factor my mana production anyway, which isn’t something that has happened in a very long time. I should be finished by the end of the day tomorrow.
I should probably post some guards around these buildings, it would be a problem if someone attacked them. I’ll ask my Ents to do it.
The dungeons have come to an agreement on what they want me to create for them, and it is surprisingly simple. They want an Ent that is as ridiculously good at magic as possible, and they don’t want that magic being ‘tainted’ by anything. Basically, a blank slate for them to teach whatever form of magic they want. I’ll do that tomorrow while I fill up the buildings, that takes a lot of mana, but almost no actual effort.
I spent my downtime with Azrezel again, teaching him how to manipulate flesh. He’s really quite talented at it, possibly even more so than me. He still lacks practical knowledge and experience, but both of those will come easily to him. Given that it is probably going to be one of the main things he focuses on he will inevitably surpass me with this. But for now at least, I am the teacher, and he will learn everything I can teach him.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.
