While all those events were taking place at the village, Rowan and his n were strolling along a path amidst the southern forest, heading toward a certain location. At this mont, they could hear the sound of water flowing gently, reminding them that they were very close to the river.
Rowan walked in front of the others with a calm expression on his face. After he ca back from the village square, he received other notifications about the emotional states of Blaze, which displayed that it was furious, but it was only short-lived. Still, Rowan was a little bit curious why such a thing had happened.
Nevertheless, at this mont, his entire focus was on constructing the water irrigation windmill and improving the agricultural productivity of his village as swiftly as he could, ultimately evolving it.
After a few more minutes of strolling, they finally arrived at the river that sprawled before them.
The gentle sound of water flowing in the river could be heard, along with the rustling dance of leaves on the big trees around it.
Though the sounds were calm and serene, the soldiers couldn't help but grab their weapons, feeling alard by their surroundings.
Rowan observed the river carefully; it was bigger than so of the local rivers he had seen back on Earth, and the water in it didn't look so pure to him.
The river was vast and appeared to be flowing from a very long distance; the end and the beginning of the river could not be seen from where they stood.
At this mont, Rowan couldn't help but beco a little bit confused about the situation.
"Didn't Glenwood claim to have seized this river? I thought they would have soldiers stationed around here, or maybe a flag planted to represent their territory, but there's nothing!" he thought to himself.
"So they only said those words to scare my people from using the river, just to instill fear in their minds! Damn, if I had known earlier, I would have claid the river as soon as I could; there was no way they would have noticed!" Rowan felt really ashad of himself for not thinking this through from the very beginning.
The mories he received initially didn't reveal anything about the river because the original Rowan was already in a coma before Glenwood claid to seize it. Thus, Rowan couldn't tell from the start that they were simply bluffing to assert superiority and authority over his people.
Thinking about it now pissed him off badly; it also made him realize how foolish Fagin really was—he wanted the farrs to supply his village with fresh food every day but seized the only thing that could guarantee more supplies.
"Sigh, enough of all that; they're in the past now," Rowan sighed and returned his attention to his soldiers, who were looking around, alard.
Brandon turned to Rowan with a look of realization. "Lord Rowan, Glenwood lied to us about the river!" he said.
"I figured that out already, but we shouldn't dwell on the past anymore," Rowan said, waving his hand to dismiss it.
He could tell that Brandon felt really ashad for having fallen for the lies.
Rowan proceeded to tell the soldiers about the windmill he planned to build on the river and its functions this ti. They were easily amazed by the idea of a machine pumping water from the river to the village in a short ti!
After Rowan was done explaining to them what he planned to do, he brought out the windmill blueprint.
Simple Windmill Blueprint - 9/10 Activations remaining | Activate blueprint?
Rowan clicked yes, and as usual, he was sent to the crafting space while ti slowed down drastically in the real world—the fastest running cheetah beca a thousand tis slower than a snail!
Rowan saw the hill of wood and iron ores as usual, which were the only materials he needed for the process.
All the necessary raw materials floated into the air, just as before, after he comnced the material identification and accumulation phase.
Without wasting ti, he moved on to the rging phase, and everything began rging in front of him at a really slow pace.
Rowan stood and watched the whole process as the materials rged magically in midair and ford the shape of the windmill.

Rowan read all of them with a frown while watching the windmill glow intensely like it did the first day.
The glowing session ceased at once.
Nevertheless, the structure remained the sa as it was before Rowan upgraded it. There were no visible changes, making Rowan a bit confused.
But he didn't waste ti and left the crafting space.
Because of the vast ti difference between the crafting space and the real world, no one even noticed that Rowan disappeared from their midst. Even those looking at him didn't notice any changes because Rowan was only away for less than a split second.
Nevertheless, imdiately after Rowan arrived, just like the last ti, the windmill began to land softly ahead of him and away from the soldiers. Its gigantic figure cast a big shadow over its surroundings; the sounds of small birds and animals flying and running away could be heard as well.
"This..."
Brandon and the soldiers were scared at first when they saw the large structure casting a shadow over them. So even held their swords and hoisted them at the structure as though it was a monster planning to attack them; a few of them even tripped over due to fear.
Nevertheless, when they realized it was the windmill, they cald down but were still dumbfounded by the supernatural phenonon.
The windmill finally landed.
Nevertheless, the mont it landed, Rowan noticed so magical changes taking place right away—several big pipe hoses suddenly appeared out of the base of the structure and began to dig into the ground, their motion akin to a python crawling inside a bored hole in the ground.
This ti, not only were the soldiers shocked by the action taking place in front of them, but even Rowan was dumbfounded as he watched the scene with widened eyes.
"I knew it would have an advanced structure!" Rowan muttered to himself while watching everything unfold.
After the pipe hoses dug and bored into the ground, Rowan noticed their movent as they began to crawl their way speedily underground toward the river.
"This is great!" Rowan exclaid joyfully.
This simple process would have taken so many engineers days to accomplish. Even the digging alone might have taken days, but the windmill was doing it at a fast pace.
Rowan even received certain notifications about the dumbfoundedness of his soldiers, which made him smile. Sadly, he earned no evolution points.
A few minutes passed, and the pipe hoses finally finished digging into the ground.
Nevertheless, on the opposite side of the windmill—the side facing the village—there were ten smaller pipe hoses bulging out of the base. But unlike the ones on the other side, these ones didn't dig into the ground; these hoses also had a plastic object at the top similar to taps.
Rowan strolled towards the pipes, grabbed one of them, and pulled it a little bit. He then turned it on, and to the amazent of the soldiers, water began pumping out of it.
After testing it, Rowan understood it a bit more and called out to the soldiers to help drag the pipe hoses towards the village.
The soldiers were a little unsure at first about holding the pipe hoses on the ground, which looked like snakes, but after they saw Rowan holding it and nothing happening to him, they beca relieved.
Ten of them volunteered, strolled out, and proceeded to grab one pipe each, trying to pull it.
"Ouch... It's very hard!"
"I can't make it budge!"
Nevertheless, while Rowan was able to pull the hoses quite easily without any stress, that didn't seem to be the case for the soldiers, who failed to make it budge.
"I almost forgot my strength is different from theirs," Rowan facepald.
He then instructed the soldiers to work in groups to pull the pipe hoses—at least five soldiers grouped up to pull just one.
Rowan, on the other hand, grabbed and pulled two pipes at the sa ti with ease.
"Lord Rowan is so strong!" the soldiers couldn't help but be amazed by his strength once again.
