anwhile, in Dry City...
It was early afternoon in this city, and while the movent in the streets of this place was still as hectic as ever, the heat typical of this territory was present, brightening the day of the inhabitants.
But while many citizens continued to go about their lives, work, getting to know the advantages of the Bank of the Black Plain, several advertisents could be seen on murals around this city.
These were new advertisents, which had been placed earlier today on these murals that existed around this city, items that served for the governnt to communicate with the local population.
And on such notices was a new possibility created by the local governnt, sothing very descriptive just by the title in flashy letters.
'Enlistnt of Laborers,' said the more giant letters of the notice.
On the other hand, smaller letters specified the place where those interested could go and so preliminary information.
'- If you are interested, co to the rcenary Guild in the next ten days at any ti of the day. You will get more detailed information by talking to one of the attendants;
- Only those who are interested in the construction sector and are at least at level 35 will be hired;
- The service will pay double the amount normally paid in Dry City for the sa type of service!
- Limited vacancies.'
That was written in the smaller letters of the advertisents scattered around Dry City, mainly in the residential neighborhoods of this urban area.
Anyway, now and then, people would pass by one of these murals and see the information from the newly released governnt advertisent in Dry City.
However, even though many were interested in the possibility, many others no longer paid so much attention to this kind of thing and just went on with their usual business.
But this was normal. After all, the population of this city was already quite diverse at this point. For example, there were many people related to the services of spiritual professionals, many others who worked in the stores or public service stations of Dry City.
With this, and counting those inhabitants below the minimum level described in the advertisents around this city, many inhabitants only saw this as part of the local routine. Soon after reading such a thing, they simply went about their business.
But a significant number of people were interested in such a matter!
Previously Dry City used to hire a lot in the construction industry. After all, this was a constantly growing city that needed the infrastructure to accommodate new residents and be an attractive location.
But with the war and decreasing governnt investnt in infrastructure, many of the workers related to this sector had had to get used to doing other things.
And so many around this urban center wanted to return to the construction camps to do the work that many felt was more suited to their characteristics!
...
Dry City rcenary Guild building...
At this mont, as much as it had only been a few hours since the previous announcents had been released, the rcenary Guild building was already crowded.
A few thousand people were already in that place seeking the information and showing interest in the service.
The number of vacancies was limited, and those who liked the construction work the most could not help but rush to that place in an attempt to secure their place.
"Damn, I didn't think there would be so many people in front of !" A man with white hair and reddish skin said this while feeling that he might have been too late.
"That's right!"
"I arrived here an hour ago thinking that I would be lucky to co on the first day, but who knew? I was completely wrong!" Another person in the surrounding area comnted on this in frustration.
But while many people were waiting in lines, so individuals closer to the beginning of the line were already almost being attended.
"Hehehe, finally my turn!" A strong, blond man said this, just after seeing a guild official waving at him, calling for the next in line.
"Hmm, co on. I won't be long before I join you." Then, another person who was a few ters away from the beginning of the line said this to that man.
After that, such a person quickly reached that official who had called him, ready to enlist in this possibility raised by the local governnt.
"Good morning, sir. Do you have any questions about the service?" She asked as she took the ID of that man and saw the details of this individual registered in this guild.
'Level 37, Class F ...'
"Yes, I do..."
"First, what is this service about? And second, where will such a thing be done? I believe it will not be here in Dry City, right?" He asked his questions, pondering the current situation of this place.
There was not much space left to build significant buildings in this city.
Building high up would be a problem due to the do, while downward, well, such a thing had already been done.
The local construction workers had already built to the extent that financial resources, tools, regionally found devices, and the local workforce itself could make such constructions feasible.
And even if they could make an effort to build more underground, the amount of labor per cubic ter of construction would grow exponentially the deeper the construction went.
Hence, it was not worth it, and this man thought that this call for workers was for a service outside the do.
The guild official then nodded to that man and answered his questions. "The local governnt is hiring construction workers to build the basic infrastructure of a town on the coast of our territory."
"This service is expected to have up to 20,000 workers, who will work underground in that area, building the sewage system, the piped water, the drainage of the land, etc. After that will co the final part of the service, in which these workers will do the demarcation of the first streets and avenues, construct so buildings and finally, a wall."
"The service has a term of one year, and whoever decides to join the group in question will have to live all that period in the place where this town will be built."
"But don't worry, we will handle the workers' accommodations, as well as the basic services necessary for their continuity in that area."
"As for protection, well, protection will be guaranteed. That's all I can say." She comnted, without giving details of where such a thing would be.
She had said it would be on the coast, but the Black Plain had a few hundred kiloters of coastline!
So, the location of this future town would still be a secret, even to those interested in the service.
Anyway, upon hearing all that, that man soon understood the basics and associated that information with other details he already had.
'That must be that Naval City-1!' He pondered as he rembered the investnt of 300 low-grade crystals he had made in a future service of this future Black Plain city.
'But wouldn't they only start construction of such a place after the war is over?'
'Ahh! Got it!' His eyes widened as he finally realized his mistake. 'To build those services, they need a city with inhabitants!'
'What an idiot I am!'
And indeed, this man was right.
That service released by the local governnt was the beginning of that future city that they planned to develop after the war was over.
It was not good for the local governnt to develop a second city for now since the local forces would have to divide their numbers between two places at this possibility.
They did not even have enough to guarantee the protection of the current territory, so it would be problematic to have a new city.
However, it would also be no good waiting until the end of the war to build such a place. After all, if Minos eventually won the war, many people would co to a growing state, born as the strongest in the region.
But if millions of people arrived here and had nowhere to go, well, it would be a big problem for the Dry City governnt.
So, Minos had already given the necessary orders for this to be done during the war period. Such a thing had only been delayed until this mont because before, his forces could not even do this initial step!
But now, with so many powerful cultivators around his territory, they were in a position to begin this!
Consequently, Mia and Dillian had already put Minos' plans into action, beginning the construction of the city's basic infrastructure, which would be around the army's naval base.
