At this mont, everyone could sense the gaze of a silver sun, and dense grid shields began to appear around the space elevator—the terrifying aether fluctuations transford into semi-physical shields, protecting the structure of the space elevator and defending against external impacts.
"When do you plan to activate it?"
The Dwarf Master Engineer watched silently as the mont of the colossal structure’s completion unfolded. With countless words in his heart, as a dwarf, he rely gazed on silently, then said lightly, "And what do you intend to do with it?"
"Today."
Roland calmly replied. The young graduate from those years was now the minister overseeing this domain’s engineering projects. As he observed the tower reaching the heavens before him, he could not help but smile, "I don’t know."
After confirming that the space elevator’s cables were secured and ready for use, the ’elevator,’ the core of the space elevator, began assembly, preparing for deploynt.
Noticing the Dwarf Master’s raised eyebrow that suggested, ’Are you fooling ?’, Roland waved his hand and said, "This is the plan left by our Lord. We are to build orbital shipyards and factories on Terra’s orbit, and construct orbital accelerators there, beginning the exploration of the ’New Moon.’
"This is what our Prophet Lord intended to do. We are rely following the path he foresaw—in the beginning, we didn’t understand what he ultimately wanted to do, or even why he wanted to go to the Moon."
"But gradually, the process of constructing the space elevator taught us much... brand new alchemy, new material requirents, cheap yet high-strength armants, the research and practical application of various Spirit Energy Domain of Void operating systems..."
"These technologies, even when taken individually to the Silverpeak Domain, could each trigger a revolution, but concerning the space elevator, concerning this plan, we must achieve perfection and break through all limits to complete it."
"Well, let’s just say we’ve taken many shortcuts, and even so, these shortcuts taught us a lot."
"To put it another way, the Lord is guiding us."
"And we are pursuing the Lord’s footsteps while seeking our own path."
"Ian... Silverpeak."
The Dwarf Master Engineer muttered softly, repeating this na that hadn’t surfaced for a long ti, yet always lingered in people’s minds. Just then, accompanied by a clap of thunder, an unoccupied cabin was accelerated and launched, disappearing in an instant into the sky.
"I don’t think he’s a Prophet."
After a mont of silence, the Dwarf Master shook his head and said, "This isn’t derogatory, but rather complintary."
"Prophets are mad. My family had a prophet in our ancestry who foresaw many things he didn’t want to see and didn’t know why he saw them. He was a talented engineer but was driven mad by the visions he saw... Since then, we’ve understood that a prophet might not see valuable information. Arguably, the most powerful aspect of a great prophet isn’t the Seer’s Ability itself, but the capability to find useful intelligence among countless trivial fragnts and transcendentally understand and use it, beyond space-ti."
"But the Silverpeak Seer is different... so far, all he has seen isn’t truly ’unknown future,’ but rather a reuse and reconciliation of past knowledge."
"Of course, there is also a possibility that the Silverpeak Seer can utilize all the information he sees... which would be beyond the scope of a prophet, and we wouldn’t call him a prophet."
"Is that so?" Roland had rarely seen dwarves praise others in such a manner. He asked curiously, "Then how would you refer to the Lord?"
"We call such a person..."
The dwarf looked up at the top of the firmant, where the light of the cabin breaking through the atmosphere was visible.
"A Sage."
In the year 784 of the Terra Era, the Silverpeak space elevator was completed 100%, and with the support of Dragon Island, the first space station of the Terra Era began to be constructed at the fastest pace.
The Tara Confederation looked down on Silverpeak Domain’s efforts in this area. Space elevator? So what, it’s not like they didn’t have this technology; it’s just that the costs and rewards didn’t add up, so it was pointless.
Moreover, a capable Sublimator could easily destroy the structure of a space elevator at any ti—they were unaware of the shields surrounding the space elevator—and naturally, such a fragile creation would not earn their recognition.
However, when Silverpeak Domain collaborated with the Imperial Capital to construct a climate network across the entire Empire that could link to the Imperial Capital and make macro adjustnts to the climate of the whole nation, the entire Empire, and indeed the West Terra region, beca more prosperous and harmonious.
Incidentally, this part of the Tara Confederation happened to be allies of Ian.
Silverpeak Domain did much more than just this.
Throughout Terra, there are nurous ruins left by previous epoch civilizations. These ruins have even created many strange landscapes and terrains, unchanged for centuries, becoming part of the local ecosystem.
Silverpeak Domain did not intend to alter these ecosystems, but they aid to control them.
For example, the ’Ground Hurricane’ phenonon in Bart Great Rift Valley cos from a geothermal energy hub underground. It lies at the bottom of the gorge, continuously operating and creating a persistent whirlwind, linking the ecosystems on both sides of the rift and attracting a group of unique birds.
