Chapter 177 Physics no longer exists
The so-called "modular" building, someone in the world where Norman used to live had proposed this peculiar idea.
The various parts of the building produced in advance, transported to the destination, and then assembled directly to quickly build a house.
The biggest advantage is the fast construction speed.
But the modular idea still has many unavoidable disadvantages in that world.
For example, the most serious problem:
It is difficult to transform and repair.
The components of the building are all prefabricated in advance. In order to ensure safety, modular building materials are almost concrete poured in a hollow shell.
Even if you make a hole in a wall or open a door, you may have to replace all the modular building materials in this part.
In addition, there are problems such as poor air permeability and high cost. In short, this thing is basically a conceptual future concept in Norman's former world, and it is difficult to popularize it.
But it is different in this world with divine arts and magic!
The buildings in this world, especially the churches of the church, the manors of the nobles, and the magic towers of the wizards, are under the influence of divine arts and magic. Many of them do not conform to physics at all!
Norman discovered it a long time ago.
The influence of magic, divine arts and other forces in this world on reality will distort some common physical phenomena into pieces.
The boundary between theology and physics no longer exists.
In a sense, Norman thinks that this is probably the reason why science is difficult to develop in this world.
Even if there are laws that can be summarized, the end of these laws often falls on the "endless power of the gods".
The existence of divine arts and magic has restricted the development of science, but sometimes it can easily do things that cannot be done temporarily in the process of scientific development.
...
For example, the modular building concept proposed by Ray Wayne.
The biggest advantage is that because its specifications are unified, it is easy to design.
As for problems such as difficulty in maintenance and difficulty in transformation, they are not a problem in front of magic and divine arts!
Especially the divine arts of the God of Craftsmen.
There is a divine art called [Structural Stability]. After Norman learned about the effect of this thing, he called it outrageous.
Its effect is:
In the few hours after the blessing, even if you remove part of the wall supporting this house.
From the perspective of mechanical structure, it should have been unbalanced and collapsed!
But with the blessing of the magic, it can still maintain a stable state during this period.
Until the magic is effective.
Using this magic, craftsmen can boldly change the original structure of the house, as long as they reconstruct a stable structure before the effect ends.
This is particularly suitable for Ray Wayne's modular building ideas.
It is convenient to disassemble or reassemble the built modules without causing the original overall structure to be unbalanced and collapsed.
There is only one drawback to his plan.
The cost is high!
After all, magic and magic are not free. For most ordinary people, they are not qualified to enjoy the convenience brought by the "power of God".
There are not many architects who master [structural stability]. These people charge a high fee for their services, and even have to queue up for appointments.
Ordinary people can only honestly use the most primitive method.
If modular buildings want to be able to change existing modules or add new modules at any time as Ray Wayne described, it means that a large number of excellent craftsmen who master relevant magic are needed.
This is why Ray Wayne originally planned to give up his design.
The funds raised by the Countess for the relief project were also limited.
She couldn't afford to hire so many people.
But on the way to Misty Valley, Ray Wayne listened to Pete and others introducing the greatness of the God of Knowledge to the refugees over and over again, and his ears were almost calloused.
"After becoming a formal believer, as long as you have enough knowledge points, you can exchange for knowledge."
"The Lord will guide every believer, and you can learn this knowledge with effort."
"As long as you are willing to work hard, anyone can learn magic and master divine arts."
"..."
Such words were said over and over again.
It's not that Pete and others are nagging, but the refugees don't dare to believe that all this is true, and they will carefully confirm it from time to time.
Ray Wayne had an idea at that time.
If the Church of Knowledge really allows anyone to learn magic and divine arts, then wouldn't his vision of this modular building have a chance to come true!
After witnessing the Creation Altar with his own eyes, Ray Wayne had a hunch.
His vision may really come true!
It took half a day to fully explain the idea of modular construction, and Lena explained the more professional terms beside him.
As expected.
After Pete and the others understood, they did not worry about the fact that this method required a large amount of divine arts.
In other places, magic and divine arts are luxuries.
But in the Church of Seeking Knowledge, this thing is something that everyone can have through their own efforts!
"Done! Use this plan!"
...
The residential construction project in full swing soon started in the Misty Valley.
The second batch of refugees who did not yet have the "believer status" received the task issued by Nowen.
As long as you help collect the building materials such as wood, stone, and metal required for the standard module, or help produce the "standard module", you can get a contribution value reward!
All the task requirements and corresponding rewards are clearly written.
The refugees have also calculated it.
If you work hard for a day with normal efficiency, you can get about 10 contribution points.
They have all witnessed with their own eyes that their families relied on consuming knowledge points to obtain the miracle bread that appeared out of thin air in the magnificent creation altar.
Because there is a limit on the number of exchanges, the bread that a person can exchange every day is enough to eat a full meal. After sharing it with the family, everyone can only eat half full.
Fortunately, a lot of farmland has been opened up in the Misty Valley. Not only can the [cultivation of farmland] in the territory construction series of tasks be completed, but the fruits and vegetables catalyzed by the harvest magic can also be used to fill the stomach, which is enough for everyone to not go hungry.
The refugees burst out with an extremely strong enthusiasm for work just because they will not go hungry and can eat sweet bread and fruits every meal.
The desire to become a believer of the God of Knowledge reached its peak at this moment.
Under the command of Ray Wayne, the first batch of hundreds of "standard modules" was produced in less than 3 days.
These modules are of uniform length, width and height, made of various materials, and have connection structures at the edges to facilitate connection with other standard modules.
Of course, there are differences in the specific structure.
Modules of different structures are used to act as corners, walls, ceilings, floors and other structures when spliced.
Next, it is time for the believers of the Church of Knowledge to make their efforts!
