Construction began the very next day.
The newcomers were quickly taught how to mold and shape the cube concretes and now, they were finally laying the groundwork.
With Maxim's help and the support of his earth mage escorts, the trees along the planned road were swiftly cleared.
It was hard to believe how fast things were progressing.
Using magic, the mages carved out a trench roughly one meter deep and six meters wide, marking the path where the road would be built.
Rows of cube concretes were embedded into the trench as anchors then layered carefully.
The edges were gently sloped to blend the road naturally into the surrounding terrain.
Once the structure was in place, mana was poured over everything... binding and hardening the materials into one seamless whole.
Everything was going smoothly... until they reached the river.
It was wide and its current ran strong.
The water mage inspected it and confirmed that it wasn't very deep but that didn't make things easier.
