As long as this aspect is improved, it can also alleviate the pressure on the tunnel.”

The Crown Princess fully demonstrated her wit, turning her head to co up with several feasible strategies to relieve pressure, much more ti- and effort-saving than Gaven’s proposal to dig a new tunnel.

“Changing the mode of transportation is indeed a very feasible strategy.” Gaven agreed, “Later on, we could adopt a thod of pulling rail vehicles for short-distance rapid transit.”

Beast-drawn carts, even if faster, have relatively limited speed, far less effective than chanical power in excavation, and this chanical power does not solely refer to steam boilers and combustion engines but also includes magical power.

Among other things, the Goblin Sorcerers in the Three Rivers Region are researching a bona fide Magic Furnace powered by Negative Energy.

As for Golems, they are not common but not rare either in Felen; they are perpetual machines, powered by imprisoned elents – at least they don’t require human-provided energy, as they draw Energy directly from the Elental Plane.

“Pulling rail vehicles?” The Crown Princess was intrigued, “Are you talking about the self-propelled rail vehicles the Dwarves use to transport minerals in their mines?”

Whether it’s large conveyor belts or railways, rail vehicles are frequently used in Dwarven Mining, especially the latter, which can be seen in nearly any sizable Dwarf mine.

This is related to their relatively small population; they must conserve manpower as much as possible, and necessity naturally fosters innovation.

On the other hand, because human labor is cheaper, including the existence of various slaves, there are not many mining operations willing to invest heavily in building railways and rail vehicles.

Even Gaven’s Blackwell Iron Mine currently uses Enlightened Trees to assist in mining, instead of constructing rail vehicles, since they have had too little developnt ti and were financially strapped to update their equipnt previously.

“Exactly.” Gaven did not hide his thoughts and directly offered the idea of trains, “Just that the carriages are larger than the Dwarves’, and there are more of them, at least several dozens to over a hundred.

As long as the pulling strength is strong enough, speeds of over a hundred kiloters per hour are simple, crossing the underground tunnel would just take a matter of minutes, although the cost is quite high.”

“Even if the cost is high, it is still much lower than digging a new Stormhorn Underground Tunnel.

If you can create another miracle in the City of Faith, increasing the trade volu on the East Road by tenfold, this matter must be put on the agenda.” The Crown Princess could not hide the expectation in her eyes as she spoke to Gaven.

All they discussed was based on the premise of a significant increase in cargo volu.

If this premise does not hold, all is but fantasy; who would spend a lot of money to build sothing unnecessary?

If the mines produce enough iron ore every day, even the most miserly Slave Masters would consider upgrading the mining equipnt, because not doing so would be like having a grudge against money.

“I’ll do my best.” Gaven’s response seed sowhat arrogant to outsiders.

But the Conqueror Path gave him ample confidence, both in gaining more Road Force and in acquiring more wealth; he would race tirelessly down the road of building and promoting trade growth.

Who knows, he might even take a hand in the Koer Kingdom’s renovation of the Stormhorn Underground Tunnel in the future.

“Your Majesty, the path has been cleared; you may enter the tunnel now,” a middle-aged man clad in Purple Dragon Armor approached briskly.

His na is Rayos Sargent, the General of High Corner Fort.

This was one of the privileges personally extended to the Crown Princess, where not only High Corner Fort rolled out the green carpet for them, but the entire journey did the sa.

“Thank you, General Rayos.

General Gaven, let’s go.”

The Crown Princess was accustod to this priority passage; even the rchants and travelers waiting for passage had grown used to it, and Gaven also relished it.

Equality has always been a beautiful illusion; not to ntion in the God Kingdom, even the Gods themselves are divided into ranks, far more so mortals.

Pursuing equality for equality’s sake is foolish behavior; Gaven only pursued fairness and justice within the Conqueror Army and never called out slogans of equality for all.

Such ideals are not feasible in Felen in the short term and are not beneficial to his rule or his future collection of faith.

The defense of this underground tunnel by the Koer Kingdom can be considered exemplary, not only ard with an outer fort relying on the terrain but also layered inner fortresses.

Inside lies a heavy door cast in steel, no less than thirty centiters thick, and its raising and lowering depend on huge windlasses.

The tunnel’s width was also much wider than Gaven had imagined, the entrance alone being over eight ters wide and more than five ters high.

Even the Conqueror Army’s Tower War Chariots could travel side by side here, let alone riding on horseback.

The place was brightly lit, yet there was not a trace of smoke to be seen.

Because the lighting used here was not ordinary but consisted of the Everbright Fla attached to the tunnel walls.

This was a Second Circle energy-shaping spell capable of making the adherent surface emit a fla equivalent to that of a torch forever.

Gaven had frequently used this thod of illumination in Gnoll territories.
