Nova Roma Chapter 345 - Interoceanic Canal

With the force of the water receding, Chalchiuhtlicue began to control the filling of the lake while all the gods continued with their path in the construction of the lining in the canal.
The gods that remained in place were Ares and Huitzilopochtli, who had to continue controlling the flow of the sea until Chalchiuhtlicue gave them the order to withdraw.
While this was happening on the defensive line in the capital, the population was helping the dwarves as much as they could to expedite the production of stone, which would be used for both wonders.
In the furnaces of the workshop, Hephaestus and Admes were working shirtless while they had their torsos wholly exposed.
This is why the heat was uncomfortable for both of them, and their work did not seem to have an end because every time Hercules or Hermes entered.
They had to increase production as much as possible to fill the demand they were being forced to create.
Mario was also in the workshop only that unlike Hephaestus or Hermes, he was using his divine energy in an artifact to create building materials.
The artifact was an ancient article that created anything inert inside. Still, in doing so, it required an equivalent exchange and divine energy.
What Mario was doing was using the ambient air to convert it into a material, which was taken to Hephaestus and Admes to make the blocks that were being used.
The process was extremely tiring, but fortunately for Mario, he was not alone since he was being helped by mother Tonantzin, who covered Mario when he got tired.
Mario cleaned his sweat and let mother Tonantzin take his place. "Thank you, mother Tonantzin, this device is quite tiring.
But I want to participate and help in everything I can, it is a pity that I could not build the wonder on my own, but sometimes it is necessary to leave pride for the common good. "
Mother Tonantzin closed her eyes while using her divine energy. "You must remember that the most significant achievement as a person you can have is family.
The material is only an illusion that will fade over time, but your family will be who will be with you at all times.
The only thing you need to prove to Felix is ​​your commitment as a father.
I will ask Ometeotl to give you some advice so you can spoil Felix during his pregnancy.
Sometimes the simplest thing can be what a woman needs, see your father is a man very dedicated to his family and knows what his wives require.
But each couple is different, and the needs are different but don't worry, Ometeotl will show you where you can improve. "
Mario scratched his head and smiled "Thank you, mother Tonantzin, I will use the advice of Ometeotl to be better.
Now let me cover it, and I feel so much better. "
Mother Tonantzin nodded and let Mario continue the process.
In the line of defense in Part C, the legionaries and soldiers were able to see with surprise how a large crater was used in front of them.
Unlike the previous crater that was rough and did not have a concise shape, this was done very carefully, Zeus took the time to create defined edges in the crater.
But not only did he do that, but with his rays and using his divine energy, he began to create many fantastic things.
Like beautiful trees that had golden flowers that looked extremely beautiful with the contrast of the snow.
But these small changes were just the tip of the iceberg.
Zeus using his divine energy created in the middle of the crater, a kind of island on which he built the figure of a woman, which was molded until it took the form of Naturae.
In the eyes of the statue, he placed a primordial fire, which would allow the statue to always illuminate the ships passing through the place.
Zeus made the whole crater, the island and the statue as a way to show the love he had for Naturae, even though he can't be with her or spend time with his daughter.
He hopes that this lake in the future will be remembered as a father's show of love for his lover and daughter.
After this, Zeus continued on his way to the coast, where he would wait for the other gods to end to free the flow of the sea and that the canal could work and thus inaugurate the second wonder of the new world.
When Flavio and the other gods arrived, they were surprised because everything was utterly accommodating from the brush to the stones creating a majestic atmosphere.
They only dedicated themselves to completely covering every place so that that magnificence would not be lost after the crater will be filled with water.
After upholstering the crater entirely and making the corresponding seals.
Chalchiuhtlicue began to modify the water flows so that the crater will fill slowly but showing the fantastic way as it was done.
When they finished filling the crater, they continued on their way to the Pacific Ocean.
It only took a few hours until they could get to where Zeus was sitting on the beach watching the immensity of the sea.
Zeus noticed everyone's arrival and got up to stretch his body. "Seeing the vastness always makes me wonder if the separation of the world into three was the best.
But at the same time, I think it would be too wild to take care of the vastness of the oceans, I suppose the experiences make you reflect.
It's time to finish this wonder, I want mortals to appreciate in all the splendor that their gods are to take care of them. "
All the gods nodded, and Chalchiuhtlicue gave the order for Ares, Hutziloposhtli, and Zeus to remove the barriers that prevented seawater from coming into contact with the freshwater of the interoceanic canal.
When the barriers disappeared, a light shone in the water of the canal, and a great change could be felt throughout the continent.
