Chapter 175 Blueprint of Progress
{As for the ones responsible for the railway construction we can do that too, but we will need to design at least three different-looking machines to avoid raising suspicion. One that will be responsible for cleaning and strengthening the ground the rail will be passing by. The second will be responsible for laying the foundation on the strengthened ground, while the last one will be responsible for laying the rails on the laid foundation. If we proceed to do it this way, we will be able to avoid any suspicion about having a printing technology and would only make people believe that we\'ve had a breakthrough in the construction technologies, though groundbreaking, it will still be digestible enough for people to convince themselves with.}
{We will also need to program them in a way such that they would operate similarly, making their assumption appear true, such as reducing the speed of material production and a few other adjustments.}
Nova took a pause before continuing, {As for the one that will be responsible for underground construction, there\'s no need to worry about any of the above problems since we can simply make the water murkier and impossible for the people to see the underground construction. We can leave it with its full range of capabilities.}
When Aron heard Nova\'s agreement to his plan after she had done a few alterations to it, he grinned from ear to ear, satisfied and excited. With those machines alone, the discovered it.
"Then we can just utilize similar machines for the rest of our projects, right?" Felix time required for the complete completion of the project would be cut from two and a half years (which was already exceedingly fast enough) to a matter of a few months, which would be nothing more than making a historical milestone.
Felix, on the other hand, remained surprised by what he heard from both Aron, who gave such a crazy idea, and Nova who made this crazy idea become applicable to their situation without risking the revelation of the technology to the world.
"That\'s true, with the machines now involved in the projects, it means that we can start the remaining of the projects at the same time without having to delay them due to a shortage of workers," Felix said after taking a moment to collect his thoughts, not at all expressing what he was feeling since he had prepared himself beforehand knowing well that he will always be surprised by Aron and his assistant and thus wasn\'t disappointed at all when Aron solved one of his problems moments after he discovered it.
"Then we can just utilize similar machines for the rest of our projects, right?" Felix asked.
"Not all at the same time, as that would raise a large number of questions on how we are even producing those machines in such a short period. There will be a need for a delay in their arrival at different projects," Aron answered, showing that he didn\'t need Nova\'s help to think that far.
They continued their conversation, discussing how to use the machines to expedite the other projects that would be starting simultaneously with the airport, railways and ports. One of these projects being the official headquarters of Aron\'s companies.
After they finished discussing and approving the modified plans, while Felix was waiting for the log-out time, he asked Aron, "But what happened to the city? Why has there been no one in it since the announcement of the upgrade?"
"Due to the increase in computing power, the simulation grew to the size of a galaxy and to receive the most benefits from it, I had to accelerate the time there as much as possible. But this also became dangerous for people to log in and out of it with their current devices. So, I ended up starting another instance of the simulation that solely simulated the Earth and increased the time dilation to the maximum capacity that the devices can handle. As you are experiencing now, it requires you to wait for about five minutes to log out," Aron explained.
This time, Aron\'s reply surprised him even though Felix was prepared, even in his slightest imagination, he would never have imagined that the update would result in such a massive evolution. What surprised him, even more, was that this entire process had occurred within just a few minutes, as the server went offline for exactly about the amount of time before it came back online.
This meant that the simulation had gone from being the size of a small country to the size of a galaxy in a matter of seconds. As he tried to fathom what type of computing power was required to accomplish such a monumental expansion, he realized that his brain was failing to comprehend it, even with his wildest imagination.
It took him a minute or two to slightly calm down before he decided to ask a question that came to his mind.
"Now that you mention it, I remember you saying that you are going to give us assistants after you have upgraded the server. Was this upgrade the one you were referring to during that statement?" Felix asked, knowing that having an assistant like Aron\'s would significantly ease his job.
"Yes, I\'m in the process of creating them. In a few days at most, I will send them to you," Aron answered with a smile, hiding his slight embarrassment. Although he hadn\'t forgotten it and had only postponed it a little. But Felix\'s question reminded him that it would only take him a few minutes to finish creating them. So, he promised himself to start with the making of these assistants the moment Felix logged out.
"Really?!" Felix asked, the excitement on his face was too hard to not be noticed for even the most non-social person to understand its meaning.
"Yes," Aron confirmed, but before Felix could even reply, he was booted out of the system as the waiting time for his logout was over.
"Now, Nova, let\'s get to work and send the assistants to them as fast as possible. It seems like they really need it," Aron instructed.
{Yes sir} Nova replied as she immediately materialized different profiles of the people who had the glasses and whom they were going to be making assistants for.
This meant Sarah, Felix, John and a few high-level ARES members had their profiles materialized in front of Aron.
"Create an assistant for each one of them that will match with their personality while also focusing on making sure that the assistants are the most helpful to them in their specific fields," Aron started to give instructions on what the assistants should be like.
{How much computing power should I allocate to each of them?} Nova asked.
Taking a moment to consider, Aron answered, saying "They should be small enough for them to be able to operate independently on the glasses of the people they will be assisting, while leaving the backups on the servers, just in case"
{Done} Nova responded the moment Aron finished his answer, causing Aron who was the most likely to not be surprised by her speed to be astonished for a moment before he calmed down and said "Send them"
Nova wasted no time, sending the assistants to their designated users.
{Done}, after a moment, she confirmed.
