Chapter 2201: 2201. City Golem

Instead, Walker was thinking about other things.

"Who is this? You came in here without even bothering to knock. You should know that this is my room and I am making something way better than whatever you think you need space for. So get out."

"So rude? I thought he would be a little more mature if he was making massive blueprints like this." There was a little bit of confusion in Walker\'s voice, but he was also somewhat teasing. Not because he wanted to be mean, but because he felt it would be a little fun to combat the rude attitude with a little bit of his own rudeness.

"Rude? You are looking at my work. Trying to just steal it for yourself then? I would have had my golem beat you up if Miss Su wasn\'t with you. But she is too great to walk around with someone not helpful."

The more this merfolk kid spoke, the more that Walker replied he had grown up faster in some ways than others physically, he had the body of a child.. But mechanically, his mind was well versed enough to push and argue just like the majority of blacksmiths. Specifically how the apprentice blacksmiths argued.

"So I would say you learned your attitude from the blacksmiths. The dwarf specifically and you didn\'t have an issue with that. But then you have the genius to begin learning the golems like it was just putting a small puzzle together. And now you have some in depth and specific class that you want to use to make something amazing?" Walker summed everything he gathered up right then and there leaving silence in the room.

"Kid, this is Walker. And he is much more than what I am." Su\'s smirk proved that she was internally laughing at these odd interactions. especially since it was funny to see people not recognize Walker but like her over him. The word hilarious came right to the front of her mind.

"I was checking out the entire building. It\'s hard to believe it was only recently built and so many new things are happening. I thought I would see more parts of the floating ship being made since there is a chance that they would be using the compounded rune gears. But Su mentioned she had started to help out a little here with the new golems being made for the spirit race so they had better bodies. Now, I am being shown what you are making."

Walker didn\'t see the point in hiding how he came to be here. But he was waiting for the merfolk kid to snap out of it.

"What I am making? I\'m just making the solution to the merfolk race\'s issues within the ocean. I\'m making a new moving city for my race!" Walker blinked then looked up at the apportion of the massive blueprint he could see that was not rolled up on a large storage at the opposite end of the wall.

Besides the intricate designs and what other aspects might be more mechanical, the spaces made more sense now. Places to live. Places to eat. Even places to grow unique herbs and plants that would provide food for those within.

"It\'s not a golem in the sense that it\'s for battle or travel. It\'s a living city of sorts." Now it was Walker\'s turn to be properly amazed.

"Do they know you are making this? I mean the proper king of the merfolk and not the representative. I know he would like it, but the king is more strict and even keeps his people more isolated. That\'s why so few have come to live here over remaining in their city."

"I know that. It\'s why I left when I saw the chance. They didn\'t want to show me anything. By the golems from the dwarves that helped rebuild were too good. I had to learn. So I followed them and I found a blacksmith. Then he showed me the blueprints to fix things and then I learned them all. My parents said that i could do whatever I wanted and no one stopped me when i came here-"

"Whoah, wait, your parents just said do whatever? Isn\'t that-"

"His parents are advisors to the king of the merfolk, Walker. They are very busy with their positions causing them to be unable to spend a lot of time focusing on what their child is doing. So he was given express travel here so that he could flourish. They will receive letters from the merfolk side of Genesis leadership about their son\'s current genius when the time is right." Her pointed look made him understand a little better.

Now Walker grasped the situation. While there were some delicate balances on the political side, this was still amazing.

"I guess I will have to see what you manage to do. And you can just call me Walker. If you need any help when the building begins you can feel free to ask for me. I might be able to help you find the right water spirits to control the cores you plan to make for controlling the golem."

"One hundred and fifteen cores needed to be controlled together. Not just a few. And this will be the fortress whale golem. Moving city that can travel to places no other has been to. Even the deepest parts of the oceans so that we can recover lost ruins, defeat new monsters, and even find places that no one had ever seen before."

"And my name is Kid, I\'m not a kid. I am the only deep sea golem architect to be found and I am sure that no one else is making things like me." There was a lot of pride that mirrored the way that the dwarven blacksmith\'s would think of their work and how they would brag. It made Walker wonder if this kid, named... Kid, would be alright in the world. Especially as he got older.

"Well Kid, nice to meet you. Have you seen the blueprints for the dragon golem that I helped make? It might help you reference how you want to bring the core and other aspects together. I can tell you already considered the methods of movement, but it might not be flexible enough to ensure that the plating doesn\'t crack or bend."

With the way that walker could look at aspects and use the all around appraisal, he had already picked out major flaws. Not in the entirety of the design, but in smaller aspects. Simply put, the weight would not be a problem because of the fact that the golem was going to be within the water and also that it would be made of a unique ore. Instead, it was the stress on that metal that would be the issue.

Watching Kid blink a few times, Walker wondered if he was about to see an angry child since he would surely be unhappy that someone messed with his design. Even telling him it was

flawed.

"What problems? I don\'t see it." and there it was, the lack of knowledge that came with someone his age. The finally normal thing about him.

"Using my all around appraisal I checked the small bit I could see and it noted that this unfinished blueprint has structural errors that put more stress on the bend and arching of the outside plating. And since it will need to be thicker, that means cracks are easier to form. You will need layers to stop that stress or relieve that stress. I would say that rubber or something else flexible that won\'t compress poorly under so much weight when it comes to the water and depth would work."

It was like Kid was listening to some otherworldly being. No one had provided such perfectly detailed explanations of errors to him. He had just been getting apprentices that wanted to try top work on his project. A few blacksmiths and other golem makers came by wanting to take over the large project he was given just by showing up.

To be fair, they had their own superiority complexes and that was all well and good but it caused some issues when they thought that they should be the pens to get a larger room and work in a better space. They didn\'t understand that Kid had a class that allowed him to do these things. Not that he had just been lucky enough to be handed down a task.

"I knew this would happen. Should keep Walker out of trouble for a while." Su hummed as she spotted a small dark spirit moving around and looking for help. A few of the spirits got lost when the first came here. Plenty of mana making these senses distracted. Now she could get back to helping out.
