Chapter 61 Clay Golem

Chapter 61 Clay Golem

Qiao Dun was very efficient and delivered the materials Sunan needed the next day..

Sunan immediately asked workers to carry the materials to the temporarily built laboratory, and then began to prepare the first golem puppet..

The main material of the clay golem is clay.

A kind of soil that contains very few sand grains and is sticky, through which water cannot easily pass, and has relatively good plasticity..

Making a clay golem requires about 0.5 tons of clay, plus a small amount of silver, crystals, and most importantly, the soul core.

The lowest level clay golem can use gems as its soul core, but the intelligence level of the clay golem made in this way is extremely low and it can only perform simple tasks..

For example, cleaning an area, moving things, or hammering people.

Su Nan had made a lot of clay golems in his previous life. Now that he was revisiting his old job, he quickly became familiar with it..

More than half an hour later, there was a clay body about two and a half meters tall on the wide workbench..

Its face tends to be square, with no neck, and a broad and strong chest. The thick arms attached to the shoulders hang down to the side of the knees. The fingers are thick and short, but relatively flexible. The legs are only one-third of the length of the body, and the soles of the feet are wide and Flat and thick.

The chest of the clay golem was still open at this time, revealing the extremely complicated enchantment patterns inside..

Su Nan put the gem engraved with runes into it, then closed the groove and began to recite the spell..

The last step in making a golem is to activate the golem and give it vitality..

As the spell sounded, the surrounding energy particles suddenly became active and quickly gathered from all directions, scrambling to be submerged into the clay golem..

At the same time, elemental magic from the leyline nodes also flows in..

Under the infusion of energy, the clay golem's body gradually changes. A vitality that is completely different from flesh and blood life is growing and growing in the clay body..

The whole process lasted more than ten minutes.

Then the magic power gradually faded away, and the energy particles gradually returned to calm..

rustle！

The clay golem on the workbench suddenly moved, and then the huge and burly body sat up, looking at Sunan blankly with a stiff face..

“It’s done.”

Su Nan looked happy and pointed at the box next to him to give the order..

“Move the box outside.”

“Yes, master.”

The clay golem responded with a dull sound, then jumped to the ground with a dull sound..

Its movements were a little cumbersome, but it quickly got used to it and moved the heavy box outside effortlessly..

Sunan nodded secretly.

Clay Golem is a very useful coolie, and it consumes very little energy..

Once filled with energy, you can do hard work for four or five days in a row..

When the energy is on the verge of running out, you can quickly recharge it by entering the connecting circle of the leyline node..

The most useful cow and horse！

“The most expensive material for making a clay golem is the gem. The rest of the clay and a small amount of silver, brass, and crystal are not worth much..”

“The cost of making a clay golem is only a dozen gold coins. In the long run, it is more cost-effective and more efficient than hiring workers..”

Sunan immediately decided to make ten clay golems in one go in the past two days so that he could complete the base as soon as possible..

As for the steel golem, we have to wait until the puppet factory is established before manufacturing it..

After all, metal golems require higher skills and equipment..

Unlike clay golems, they can be made with a simple workbench.

Time flies and enters the month of recovery.

The snow melts, and there is a touch of spring in the fields.

As 10 clay golems were put into the project, the construction speed of the base suddenly soared..

Heavy stones that require the joint efforts of several workers can be carried. Clay golems can often be carried in one go, leaving workers who cannot read a word in a daze..

Key came to see it a few times. After witnessing the working process of the clay golem, his eyes suddenly lit up..

“This thing is simply a natural baggage soldier.！”

Key immediately came up with the idea of ​​forming an army of clay golems..

Even after learning that the production cost of a clay golem was as high as ten gold coins, he did not give up.

“No matter how expensive this thing is, it doesn’t cost as much as the Black Rock Cavalry Regiment, but it is subversive in improving war logistics capabilities..”

“If this thing is used to form a supply unit, the logistical pressure during war will definitely be greatly alleviated.！”

Unable to be entangled by Key, Sunan had no choice but to agree to supply him with a batch of clay golems after meeting the manpower needs of the base..

It is worth mentioning that after retaking the Shining Territory, Key immediately terminated the external output of Blackstone Iron due to the significant increase in territory income..

The blackstone iron produced in the blackstone mining area has only been supplied internally to the Shining Collar, which is used to arm the army and expand the blackrock cavalry regiment..

Expanding military strength is still the top priority for the current Shining Leader..

After all, there is a Marquis of Jinyan watching with eager eyes..

As for the expansion of the Black Rock Cavalry Regiment, the first problem facing us is that the supply of secondary dragon blood potions cannot keep up..

There are currently only sixty or seventy black-scaled lizard captives in the Shining Territory, and the amount of blood that can be extracted every month is limited..

The secondary dragon blood potion finally produced was far from enough to support the rapid expansion of the Black Rock Cavalry Regiment..

Keyi was worried about this matter and discussed it with Sunan several times..

In this regard, Sunan has also thought of many solutions..

Like drawing blood from a hidden dragon.

The blood concentration of the Hidden Dragon far exceeds that of ordinary black-scaled lizards..

It alone can obtain much more blood materials every month than the group of black-scaled lizard captives..

However, after much thought, Sunan finally rejected the idea..

If you continue to draw blood from the Hidden Dragon, it will inevitably greatly reduce the speed of its blood concentration increase..

This is unacceptable to Sunan.

Helping the territory grow is important, but improving his own strength cannot be ignored either..

Hodge's appearance gave him a wake-up call.

Although today's Starlight Continent is an elemental desert, there are still many hidden powerful people..

Hodge, who was at best a first-level legendary knight, was so forced that he had to spend nearly thirty rune gems to deal with it. If a more powerful enemy appeared, he might not even be able to escape..

Therefore, for the sake of own safety, the improvement of strength must not be slowed down.！

After thinking about it for a while, Sunan finally came up with a feasible solution..

That is to find a substitute for the secondary dragon blood potion！

Considering that the scale of the Black Rock Cavalry will further expand in the future, this replacement must be mass-produced and cheap enough.

This rules out pharmaceuticals.

After thinking again and again, Sunan finally set his sights on the magic plant..

Although there is no magic plant that meets his conditions in his memory, it doesn't matter. Since there isn't one, he can cultivate it himself..

With the synthetic Rubik's Cube in hand, he naturally has a greater advantage than other wizard apprentices in cultivating new magic plants..

“I already have some idea about the potion, give me some more time and I'll figure it out," Su Nan said..

Key trusted his brother very much. When he heard what he said, his expression immediately relaxed a lot..

Then, Keyi suddenly remembered something and asked Sunan: "You said before that you wanted to recruit apprentices from the territory. What happened?？”

“After the construction of my place is completed, many places will need special manpower to maintain them. I plan to cultivate them myself and see if I can unearth a few seedlings of wizard apprentices..”

After hearing the last sentence, Keyi suddenly became energetic..

It is because of Sunan, the wizard apprentice, that Black Rock City can develop rapidly and finally regain the Flash Territory..

Facts have proven how important a wizard apprentice is to the development of a territory.

It would definitely be a great thing if there were a few more wizard apprentices in the territory.！

Thinking of this, Keyi immediately patted his chest and agreed to the matter, promising to do a good job for Sunan..
