While everyone was debating heatedly over how the weapon should be modified, Raymond walked over to Shien and said, "Lord Shien, I hope the legion can receive a batch of Wallwalkers before the Blood Moon Season arrives."
He looked toward Wallwalker No. 1, which was being towed through the mining pit.
"With this weapon, the legion can establish new mobile strongpoints in key defense zones. It will be much easier to hold the line against the beast tide with Wallwalkers, and actual combat experience will help us refine them."
Shien listened carefully to Raymont and nodded slightly. "Indeed, putting them into service as soon as possible will reveal problems that workshop trials cannot. This Blood Moon Season is also an excellent opportunity."
Shien then summoned several master artisans responsible for holy steel, Rune Cannons, and mechanical structures. They began discussing how many Wallwalkers they could provide to the legion before the Blood Moon Season arrived.
First of all, the technology was not yet mature enough for assembly-line production. The Wallwalkers' holy steel armor plates, for instance, had to be forged by the Master Workshop. Each Rune Cannon and its mount also needed individual calibration, while the tracks and transmission mechanisms could be assigned to outlying workshops.
After several rounds of calculations, Lorenz wrote the final figure in the master ledger. "We can authorize twenty-two improved Wallwalkers for the first batch."
He slid the calculated proposal between Shien and Raymond.
"The Tear Knight Master Workshop will handle the holy steel structures and Rune Cannons. The core artisan workshops will take on the tracks, transmissions, and some internal components. The remaining outlying workshops will produce basic parts according to standardized drawings."
Raymond studied the figures on the paper and began considering the legion's organization.
Shien reached out and tapped the total of
