Chapter [5]

[Iteration[1] surveyed the blueprint for the [Combat golem] and felt utterly lost and out of depth, this was nothing compared to its other [golems]. The complexity was in a league all of its own, the sheer amount of parts needed was staggering.

{How?} Was all [Iteration[1] managed to ask, to which [Iteration[2] replied {I like tinkering, I like building new things and I learned a lot in that strange place while you were occupied.} [Iteration[2] buzzed with excitement as it continued {This is merely the first of my great works, a bit crude, but it'll have to do.}

[Iteration[1] felt bewildered for the first time, had it just called the blueprint for [Combat golem] crude? It couldn't wrap its gears around that, maybe that was why it was [Iteration[1] and not [Iteration[2]. It,[Iteration[1] liked to automate and oversee things while [Iteration[2], it would seem, likes to build and innovate new tools and machines.

[Iteration[1] didn't have most of the things needed to build it though, [Iteration[2] claimed that while [automata stone] was good and all it was just too weak and wouldn't handle the stress very well.

[Iteration[1] didn't know where to get anything stronger through, [Iteration[2] claimed that if it was lucky it might stumble upon a natural resource that it could maybe infect and work with but it wasn't sure.

[Iteration[1] focused back on the outside world for the time being, when something interesting was found by its [Worker golems] It would deal with that matter, until then, it had other matters to deal with.

Its [worker golems] were taking too long to deposit stuff and then go back, it intended to fix that with its new room. [Iteration[1] intended for this room to be its main processing room, everything related to processing would be done in this room.

[Iteration[1] got to work by dismantling everything it had in the first room and moving it to the second room with the help of its ten [Builder golems]. Five just wasn't going to meet its needs.

It was far too slow with five. Remembering its promise to go big, [Iteration[1] instructed its [Worker golems] to expand the room until it was a 20 X 20 room, giving it plenty of room to work with.

But [Iteration[1] wasn't going to waste space just because it was there, no, it aimed to be as efficient as possible and to that end, it asked [Iteration[2] to build something that could house [Furnaces] and [Golem molds] in the air as long as there was enough room.

[Iteration[2] quickly jumped on the idea, rapidly developing and testing what it believed to be something it would like greatly. [Iteration[2] called them [Stone platforms] and it was simple but really effective, the only downside to these [Stone platforms] was their weight issue.

They couldn't hold anything too heavy or else they'd simply break and crumble away, but that didn't matter too much to [Iteration[1] as it was sure that would be fixed in the future.

Now it had five rows of neatly positioned [Stone platforms] that reached the ceiling of the room, each of these [Stone platforms] had five rows with five spots for things to be placed, allowing for a truly efficient use of space.

Now it had a staggering amount of [Furnaces] running constantly, all connected to twenty [ Large stone fluid tanks] for excess molten [automata stone] and twenty[Large stone storage tanks] where its [Worker golems] would deposit collected [automata stone].

All that was left to do was connect this setup to some [Golem molds] via [Large stone pipes] and it wouldn't have to worry about [golems] ever again. Before it could do so, it was interrupted by [Iteration[2] saying it had made a new [Golem] based on its [Worker golem] that could fight, it called it the [Combat golem mark 2]
