Chapter 52: Wizard Tower II
Wizard’s Tower, inside the laboratory.
On a wide workbench, a clay body about 2.5 meters high is placed in it. The body of the golem puppet can be made separately. At present, Stephen has not completed the final assembly process. During the Thorium era, the early golems used by wizards had strange shapes, but after the Arcane Empire, the appearance of golem puppets was planned uniformly due to the rise of bionics, and the overall shape was closer to humans. But it is not that the wizards in the past did not want to make it more elaborate, but because the previous technology could not simulate human activities to improve the efficiency of the golem puppet work, so in many places it is a special operation configuration.
The rise of rune technology has improved the efficiency and flexibility of golem puppets. After this period, the appearance of golem puppets is closer to humans.
This clay golem with a height of about 2.5 meters weighs 750 pounds. Its face is biased toward a square shape, without a neck and neck, and its chest is thick and strong. The thick arm attached to the shoulder hangs down to the knee. The fingers are short and thick but flexible. The legs are only one-third of the body’s length, and the soles are wide and flat.
“about there.”
Stephen completed the rune line of the leg, and the silver carving knife suspended in the air with a wave of his hand automatically dropped back into the toolbox.
After completing the first step of the upgrade, the Alchemy Hand is very efficient. Within 15 meters, objects weighing less than 20 pounds can be easily controlled by Stephen, and the flexibility is comparable to his own hands.
On his left hand side are some crushed gem powders. After assembling the limbs of the clay golem to his torso, he picked up a temporary oak wand and clicked around the workbench. Then the faint light and color visible to the naked eye appeared. Colorful, extending along the workbench.
This is the [Geo node].
Steven uses the magic supply channel grafted by the large magic circle to provide stable magic power transmission, while letting him temporarily cast some high-level spells.
Click!
He tapped his wand on the chest of the clay golem, and then the chest opened to reveal a cumbersome rune vein, with a groove in the center. Stephen put the soul crystal in and closed it automatically. Generally speaking, the soul core of golem puppets is on the chest, and the brain is just a rune sensory receiver.
——”Activate and construct life!”
A trace of elemental magic blended into Stephen’s body along the staff, and the convulsive chanting of the spell sounded. This is a relatively difficult spell, even if he can’t omit the process of chanting the spell.
Earth, wind and fire.
The elemental magic from the nodes of the earth flows along with Stephen to the clay golem in front of him. Under the action of mysterious power, its body is changing. A vitality that is completely different from the flesh and blood life is injected into the clay body. This is the power from the elemental plane. The original inspiration for making golem puppets came from the form of elemental life.
The entire casting process lasted five minutes.
Even Stephen can’t help but feel a little tired. This spell normally requires 11 wizard levels, and now he only restores the power of the 7th-level wizard. He must use the magic of the earth veins to cast the activation spell.
“the host!”
As Stephen spit out the last syllable of the spell, the clay golem in front of him suddenly shook, and then the huge and burly body sat up, making a dull sound near the weight of 750 pounds. Stephen reduced his actual combat ability and improved his language and comprehension during production, which allowed the clay golem to accept more complicated instructions.
“Hoo!” Stephen lowered his staff and pointed to the box next to his finger, and ordered: “Move this over there, and then clean the room with a broom.”
When the clay golem moved, he replied in a low voice: “Okay. Master.”
It’s a little clunky, but it quickly got used to it.
There is a memory fragment of life remaining in the soul spar. After activation, it is a natural artificial intelligence. According to the quality of the soul spar, different levels of soul cores can be made, and the corresponding soul core can understand more complex command.
Golem puppets do not have their own ideas.
The core of their soul has only the simple intelligence that remains, which can complete the work that is easier to understand.
The construct with “self-awareness” is the tower spirit, the starting strength is the legendary level, they are the managers of the wizard tower, and the more advanced is the tower spirit commander, and their powerful capabilities serve as the core of the brain of the floating city. .
quickly.
The clay golem finished his work, and it came back to Stephen to enter the standby state.
A complete clay golem needs to record daily work, but Stephen just glanced up and down and then said in a deep voice: “Sleep. Go to standby.”
“Yes. Master.” The clay goblin seemed to be motionless like a sculpture with a slight shock.
Steven nodded in satisfaction, then said: “Start. Self-charge.”
Clay Golem came to life in an instant, and said in a deep voice: “Okay. Master.”
Then, he saw that the clay golem came to the node of the earth vein, pressed his palm on it, and the silver-white rune circuit was separated inside the palm, and then a wave of earth vein magic energy poured into its body.
A good finished product.
Stephen’s mood is very good, he clapped his palm to make the clay golem fall asleep again, and then walked towards the mine. “It’s time to speed up the mining process.”
Clay golems have the power close to juvenile red dragons. They are highly efficient labor, and can directly carry heavy objects under one ton. In the mining process, they are equivalent to hundreds of humans. Clay golems do not need to rest, do not eat, and are not afraid of danger. As long as they have enough energy supply and daily maintenance, they can be used forever. According to the working intensity of the mining area, it is enough for a clay golem to carry out large-scale maintenance at most once a year. Although high-intensity work will reduce their service life, normal use for ten years is not a problem.
“Clay Golem has made one.”
Stephen looked at the busy silver mine~www.mtlnovel.com~ frowned and said: “The next step is to build the element pool. There is no stable energy supply. The golem puppet is just a decoration.”
Aboriginal mining progress is slow.
It may take several years for the shallow minerals to be mined, let alone the exploration and exploitation of deep mineral resources.
Steven needs a stable mining reserve team to ensure that after he discovers other rare minerals in the future, it can be mined and refined in a short time. The initial plan is to make 15 clay golems, 1 guard steel golem, a small functional element pool, and a small element refining furnace.
Although it is just a golem puppet system of the logistics department, but after the completion, it is no problem to face a regular army of 3,000 inhabitants.
Steven’s safety is also enough to obtain a lot of guarantees.
The only disadvantage is that all the soul crystals on the hand are used up, and the gem resources hoarded by Stephen are exhausted. At that time, he only has steel, silver and gold in his hands.
The gems in the aboriginal world are very expensive. A medium-quality ruby starts at more than 100 gold coins, and a diamond of average size and quality often costs more than 500 gold coins. The gems consumed by Stephen can be converted into a large territory. He needs some. A resource point that can provide gems.
The best is the diamond-rich mining area!
It is a pity that there is currently no such place in the north, but there are some in the south.
A lot of silver ore has been mined and hoarded in the mining area. After a part of Mithril has been extracted, Stephen can first make a small floating ring, and then his wizard tower can be raised. A flying wizard tower is equivalent to a small mobile stronghold. It is very convenient for Stephen to research or explore the world.
