"Prepare the carriage. We're going to the Temple of Elements." Dean went straight down the stairs and went to the side hall to pick up the clothes he was going to wear.
"Yes." Kroen quickly ran out of the living room. Kroen and the carriage were waiting outside the door by the time Dean came out. The door was opened for him.
Dean nodded and got into the carriage.
The coachman shook the rope and the carriage slowly drove out of the castle.
The rain fell on the roof of the carriage. It was like the fingers of a pianist playing on the keys.
Dean quietly sat and listened. Half an hour passed and the carriage arrived in front of the Church mountain. He got off the carriage and went up the mountain with an umbrella. He looked at the guard: "Is there a letter for me?"
"You are … It's you?!" The guard was surprised as he saw Dean's face: "Yes, there are too many letters. I'll go and get them for you."
"I don't need the letters from the past. I want the letters from today." Dean said.
The guard was startled: "Yes, today's letters are here." He pulled out a drawer and took out four or five letters from it and gave them to Dean.
Dean put away the letters and thanked the guard. He went into the castle and went to his own building. He opened the letters one by one. In addition to the notification letter sent by the Temple, the rest were from other architects. Most of them were asking him questions or trying to make friends with him.
"Has it been identified? I can't evaluate the level for the time being. Do you want me to go and discuss it? Strange … Are the masters of the Temple unable to understand the blueprints? Or are they unable to understand the mechanical kinetic energy? " Dean raised his eyebrows as he read the contents of the letter. He put away the letter and left the building. He held the umbrella and went to the congress Temple.
Dean saw seven or eight carriages parked outside of the Temple. The flags on the carriages were wrinkled and soaked by the rain. He couldn't see the patterns clearly. But he didn't need to think to know what kind of people were coming to the Temple at this time.
Dean's eyes lit up as he came to the front of the Temple. The guards at the door were about to stop him but they saw Dean's face under the umbrella. They took back their words and said in a respectful tone: "Greetings architect Dean."
Dean looked at both of them: "Are the masters waiting inside?"
The two guards looked at each other and said, "The masters are discussing something inside. They specifically told us to let you in when you arrive."
Dean nodded and handed the umbrella to one of them. He shook off the rain splashing on his sleeves and strode into the Temple.
"Architect Dean, this way please." The maid inside the Temple immediately greeted Dean.
Dean nodded slightly. Under the guidance of the maid, they came to the second floor of the Temple. The maid knocked on the door and waited for a sound to come from inside. She gently pushed the door open and asked Dean to enter.
Dean stepped into the council hall. He saw seven or eight figures sitting on the table. All of them were old people. The younger ones were about forty or fifty years old. Their hair was white. He turned to the thin old man and said: "Greetings Master Skagen and all the masters present."
The thin old man smiled: "Architect Dean is too polite. Oh, perhaps I should change the way I address you. I'll call you master Dean."
Even though Dean was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Master Skagen, what do you mean?"
"Haha …" Skagen laughed: "Of course it's the literal meaning. Your invention has been identified. All the masters in the Temple including the Temple Lord have personally looked at it and agreed that you have the qualifications to be a 'master'! If it wasn't for the fact that it's already late, the news of your new invention and your title as a master would have been announced. Currently, not many people know about this news, but tomorrow morning, I believe that the entire commercial district will know about this matter. All the nobles will hear about your name! "
Dean was startled. Although he expected that the new invention would be legendary unless the masters of the Temple were old, but he didn't expect that the Temple would be so efficient. It seemed that the Temple wanted to help him as soon as the new invention came out.
He smiled: "Thank you for the favor. I'll ask the masters to take care of me in the future."
There was a trace of surprise in Skagen's eyes as he saw Dean calm down so quickly. But he was relieved. After all, Dean was a genius. Perhaps Dean's goal was to become a master. Skagen laughed: "You are too polite. The main reason we came to you is to discuss about your new invention. It's too incredible. After the votes of the masters and the proposal of the Temple Lord, we don't want to evaluate your new invention. It's neither a five-star nor a legendary invention. We want to develop it as a faction. It will be the tenth faction of the Temple!"
"Faction?" Dudian was surprised. He knew that the 'Temple of Elements' didn't have a new faction in addition to the nine basic elements that were born in the early years. The masters of the 'Temple of Elements' believed that the nine basic elements covered the mysteries of the world. However, the steam engine and the steam concept that he provided was listed as the tenth faction?
Didn't he become the originator?
Skagen smiled as he saw Dudian's stunned expression: "Master Dean, I really admire your new concept. I had a vague feeling of inspiration when I saw your new textile machine but I couldn't grasp it until I saw your new invention 'steam'. I didn't expect that you would be able to capture the inspiration in such a short period of time. Moreover it's perfect and impeccable. Haha … …"
Dean had a good impression of Skagen as he heard Skagen's hearty laughter. He smiled: "Master Dean, I admire your new concept. I felt some inspiration when I saw your new textile machine. But I couldn't grasp it. I didn't expect that you would be able to capture the inspiration in such a short period of time.
"Master Dean is too polite." Another broad-faced old man next to him smiled and said, "All of us here have been drinking from the sweet wells of our predecessors. Only you have created a new well. Although it hasn't been developed yet, from the concept introduced in your blueprint, it does have great value. In the past, there was a master who created the 'Cloud Mist', and his method of making it was using steam."
"But for so many years we have been amazed at his invention. We didn't think that steam could be used in this way. It can be used as a kinetic energy …"
"Isn't that so? Most of the time, you can think of something with just a thought, but if you don't think about it, you'll never know." Another skinny old man beside him agreed with the same sentiment.
Skagen looked at Dean: "This time we are looking for you to give a name to your new faction. Think about it. You don't have to rush to answer."
Dean thought for a moment and said: "Since everyone loves me so much, I won't be modest. Let's name the faction with a word. Let's call it 'Qi' faction. What do you think?"
"Gas?" Skagen nodded: "Not bad. It's your right. You can name it however you want. We have no right to interfere. Of course, it can't be too ugly."
Dean smiled.
"In addition to the concept of steam power, there are also two designs. The first one is called steam engine and the second one is called steam gun. We have processed the finished products in the past few days. We have used them according to the design drawings. The effect is as magical as the design drawings. It is as great as the miracle of the God of Light. I have delayed two days to inform you. I hope you don't mind." Skagen said.
