Chapter 131 Beginning

The winding road, the spiral ascending track for mine carts, and the gear lift made with dwarven technology.

This is the main entrance of this sky road.

Unlike ordinary roads on the ground, the sky road has some natural hidden dangers, such as its own height and the stable operation of various facilities on it.

However, there are solutions to these.

A qualified road is always accompanied by many facilities, such as lighting, safety guardrails, and then the maintenance of the upper and lower passages, which does not cost too much.

If it is a lift built by the general process, there may be a small possibility of accidents, such as aging of parts or excessive fatigue in a certain place, but the things assembled by Levi's hands, even if there is an accident, it can only be caused by human beings.

The stability can be said to be full.

On this road, Levi stayed for several days. During these days, he directly repaired the most difficult and complicated opening section, and the rest was repetitive mechanical labor.

After receiving the news, Badma rushed over without stopping and looked up again.

I saw a huge stone pillar that reached the sky standing on the ground, supporting a small section of the road above. The road was flat and smooth. There were street lamps with torches as light sources on the roadside, and there were hard safety fences to prevent accidents.

There was also a small house at the beginning of the road, which could be used as a temporary foothold.

"Even if we don't continue to repair it, the current appearance alone can be regarded as a miracle."

"This is not a miracle."

Levi recalled some history and said, "Have you heard of Khazad-dûm, or Moria?"

"I know, I heard that there are a large number of dark creatures gathered there, and it is the habitat of Orcs and various monsters."

"It was not like this a long time ago."

"Khazadûm, the underground city is quite large, running through the entire Misty Mountains from west to east, leading up to the top of the mountain, and connecting to the underground river. The whole journey is magnificent and wide without any cutting corners."

"It is a real miracle hall, famous throughout the world."

Compared with Moria, the fortress tower built by Levi or the entire territory of the roadside fort are really small.

This is because he has the characteristics of a cube man. It is hard to imagine how much time it took to build such a large scale in Moria, and how it was opened up.

Compared with Levi, it is a truly incredible miracle.

Bard imagined it a little.

The huge and wide hall that can penetrate the Misty Mountains is simply many times larger than the Dale City and Erebor combined.

"The craftsmanship of the dwarves is indeed powerful."

He couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, do you still think this project is incredible or impossible to complete?"

"No, I never thought it was impossible to complete."

"Very good, then it's time to start."

Levi took Bard, the temporary director of the road construction project, to the entrance and introduced the functions of each thing to him.

The upward road is used to rise smoothly.

The spiral mine cart passage is mainly used to transport materials or blocks. Of course, if someone wants to try the taste of high-speed rotation, they can also sit on it to experience it.

After introducing these two, Levi jumped directly onto a lift and invited Bard to come up.

This platform is quite stable, and the process of ascending and descending is closed. There are many safety facilities installed, although they are unlikely to be used. There is also a pool at the bottom.

Multiple insurances, extremely strong load capacity, as for how strong it is - it is stronger when it encounters strong forces.

The two stood on it, and the platform did not float at all, just as stable as standing on the ground.

Levi pulled the lever.

Click.     The platform rose at a moderate speed.

This feeling is common for Levi, or for those dwarves who are used to going down to the mine, but it is a bit exciting for Bard.

As soon as the platform moved, he felt a slight dizziness.

As a powerful archer who dared to climb up the tower to provoke the dragon and could ignore various external factors to shoot accurately, Bard's courage is naturally needless to say, and he would not have symptoms such as fear of heights.

But this feeling of weightlessness is indeed the first time he has experienced it. After all, he has never been to the dwarf mine, nor has he taken the elevator and cable car there.

"It's amazing. I've only heard of this kind of thing."

After taking a few deep breaths, Bard also calmed down.

"Now you've seen it, and you'll use it often in the future."

Soon, the platform rose to the top, and the two walked out, feeling the breeze from the sky.

Bard took a deep breath, walked to the side of the road, grabbed the fence, and looked at the sea of ​​trees that looked particularly brilliant in the sunlight.

"That's the real woodland, not the 'Black Forest' as people call it, but the Great Green Forest..."

As a descendant of the former Lord of the Valley City, Bard also knows a little about the more ancient history.

"It's so beautiful, great and beautiful. I really feel sorry for the king of the woodland. Spiders and some dark forces have polluted the entire green forest, forcing them to live in the underground palace."

"In the past, if they wanted to get out, they could only pass through the river, or some paths that people often walked on, and these places were really not absolutely safe."

Even Oak took some time to run to both sides of the river.

"But now-"

"Everything is going to be different," Bud responded.

Snap.

Levi placed an iron puppet on the spot.

It can serve as a patrol officer, maintaining security at the entrance.

"Woodland elves are actually quite willing to communicate."

"It's just that they have been invaded by dark creatures and threatened by various enemies for many years, so they have to close up and remain vigilant to everything outside."

Levi expressed his opinion.

"They're quite friendly and welcoming to their friends."

Bud looked in the direction of the palace and agreed:

"I can see that the king looks cold on the outside, but is actually a very compassionate person. I have never been able to think of a way to repay him."

"Dovinian's cargo ship has been coming recently. Just send him more good wine."

"Okay, I will."

After determining the route forward for construction, Bud quickly summoned the paving men waiting in Lake Town and brought them to the entrance.

The residents stood in front of the load-bearing stone pillars that were actually used for decoration. You looked at me, I looked at you, and made a sound of inhalation.

"Are we going up there?"

Some people couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, people who are afraid of heights can quit now, it's not something that will be forced on anyone."

Bud glanced around, but no one spoke.

It’s just that he has seen the reply in people’s eyes:

How embarrassing would it be to back down before even trying?
