The factory was a large smith workshop inside Surly Gate Town. Zhong Yuan told Amon that such a factory was a common facility in Khode. Almost every large settlement had them. A few were used to produce weapons, while most were used to construct machinery or devices for various purposes.
Amon entered the facility and saw that it was still running. The workers continued to work under the supervision of Echos' soldiers. The difference was that the items they produced were now confiscated by the First Demon Army. These workers were also ordered to repair Echos' battle puppets that needed repairs.
Amon called a soldier to bring him to the superintendent of this place. The soldier told him the original chief had died because he tried resisting when Echos' soldiers came to take control of the building. Amon told the soldier to bring him to the next person in charge.
