Puppet Factory.
The low rumble of the magic energy crystal furnace echoed continuously in the workshop.
Sunan stood in front of the spacious workbench, focused as he used the Mage’s Hand to manipulate the silver needle, engraving enchanted patterns on the surface of the golem.
About ten minutes later, as the last stroke of the pattern fell, the entire golem body instantly gained a lively aura of magic power.
"Completed another one!"
Sunan smiled with satisfaction and placed a miniature soul crystal into the groove on the golem’s chest.
As the groove closed, the enchanted patterns on the steel golem on the workbench flashed with light one after another, and the steel golem imdiately ’ca to life’.
At Sunan’s command, the steel golem jumped down from the workbench and walked to the end of the line in the corner.
Before it, stood six identical steel golems.
After the second forest cabin eting ended, Sunan imdiately began crafting new steel golems.
A total of six miniature soul crystals were all refined into soul cores, and the final result was six steel golems.
To strengthen the combat power of the steel golems as much as possible, the iron used for refining was synthesized and strengthened in advance, improving the quality of the materials.
The final refined steel golem already reached the upper-level standard of Tier One Legendary Knight, stronger than the first steel golem refined previously.
The cost, however, increased by nearly half, soaring to over fifteen hundred gold coins.
Now, Sunan earns approximately twenty-two thousand gold coins annually just by selling potions.
And the cost of these six steel golems is nearly equivalent to forty percent of the annual potion inco.
Of course, this is just the nominal cost.
In reality, because the cost of purchasing miniature soul crystals is ridiculously low, the actual cost is not that exaggerated.
"Six steel golems, a bit short for dealing with the Hundred-ard Monster."
The Hundred-ard Monster is the na Sunan gave to the creature in the cavern.
The primary purpose for crafting six steel golems is to deal with the Hundred-ard Monster.
The old steel golem must be kept at the base.
However, considering the combat power of the Hundred-ard Monster, six steel golems are still slightly insufficient.
"At least ten are needed."
With enough tanks blocking in front, Sunan can safely output from behind.
After a mont of thought, he quickly ca up with an idea.
If the number of steel golems is insufficient, then use stone golems to make up for it.
However, ordinary stone golems won’t work.
There’s no point in having a front line that cannot withstand even one strike from the Hundred-ard Monster.
A stronger stone golem must be synthesized.
Luckily, there are over twenty stone golems in the magic cube, which Sunan directly took out and placed into the cube.
[Elite Stone Golem (Puppet/Senior Grand Knight Level), a puppet creation made of granite, imnsely powerful, indestructible, and can automatically recover from injuries by consuming energy.]
"Only twenty-five stone golems can be synthesized into a Senior Grand Knight?"
Sunan slightly frowned, then quickly relaxed his brow.
After all, the initial combat power of stone golems is only Junior Knight level, the starting point is too low, so a high synthesis quantity requirent is normal.
Sunan simply drew over a dozen stone golems from the patrol squad and continued placing them into the magic cube.
When the synthesis quantity increased to forty-two, the combat power of the elite stone golem finally broke through to Tier One Legendary Knight level.
"The cost of one stone golem is about forty-three gold coins, forty-two are nearly nineteen hundred gold coins, costing about three hundred more than the steel golem, yet the combat power is a bit behind."
The elite stone golem at most only has the lower-tier strength level of Tier One Legendary Knight, not as strong as the newly refined steel golem.
However, after thinking for a while, Sunan decided to synthesize stone golems nonetheless.
Given the scarcity of soul crystals, gemstones are comparatively easier to acquire,
Having the ans to synthesize a Tier One Legendary Knight level of combat power is already quite good.
"Synthesizing four elite stone golems requires one hundred and sixty-eight stone golems, still short by a hundred and forty-three."
"Fortunately, a large number of gemstones were obtained from the forest cabin, the materials are sufficient."
"Completing everything will take roughly twenty days."
Sunan estimated the ti and, if smoothly, should be able to complete them before winter.
Putting the stone golems from the patrol squad back, Sunan left the puppet factory and headed towards the magic training area.
The next step is to practice magic.
He has now mastered three Tier Two spells: [Elental Protection], [Levitation Magic], and [Mirror Image Skill].
Considering the upcoming encounter with the Hundred-ard Monster, Sunan chose [Shattering Sonic Wave] as the fourth Tier Two magic.
[Shattering Sonic Wave] is a realm-wide damage spell that can emit a high-speed vibrating sound wave causing crushing damage to all life or non-life forms.
This spell is sowhat similar to Banshee’s howl.
Of course, the damage can’t compare.
Banshee’s howl can even cause soul-level damage, whereas Shattering Sonic Wave is only effective on a physical level.
However, [Shattering Sonic Wave] can be finely controlled to perform precise strikes on targets.
Unlike Banshee’s howl, its lethal effect does not distinguish between friend and foe.
With the enhancent of spiritual power and switching to third-tier upper-grade transcendent potion, Sunan’s speed in learning magic has increased sowhat.
Now, mastering one Tier Two magic takes only about forty days.
The learning progress of [Shattering Sonic Wave] is already more than halfway, and Sunan estimates after the stone golems are refined, [Shattering Sonic Wave] should be almost mastered.
After practicing magic, Sunan ca to the study room, casually took a book from the bookshelf and started flipping through.
From the forest cabin, he gradually acquired over a hundred wizard’s scriptures.
During this period, he spent two to three hours a day on reading.
