A worker holding a clipboard in his hands puts his thumps up, signaling to the operator to stop the blower. Once the blower stops blowing air into the converter, the machine is tilted again to pour the liquid steel out into a container called a ladle, where it is transported to the next room for the next stage of processing; the rolling room.
Kant and the agent cross the line and looks around. They see that the rolling room was fitted with rolling machines, powered by steam engines. These rollers were similar to the ones present in the FLM-18 workshop, but in contrast to those rollers, the ones present in the steel mill were far larger and more powerful.
