Chapter 101 Golem Capital
After destroying the Storm Lord, everyone's journey finally became stable and they never encountered any other troubles along the way. However, because Yue Yulou had not taken action before, many people thought he was a coward, and no one else came to talk to him along the way. Alex, who had talked to him before, kept comforting something with the girl...
"Olam is here! Everyone is ready to get off the boat!"
An hour and a half later, the eccentric boat captain loudly declared the end of everyone's journey. Everyone walked to the starboard side, looking at the magnificent city in front of him, waiting for the airship to land...
"Alex, let's see you at the conference..."
After getting off the boat, Schutta and Baker greeted Alex, and then walked towards the mage association in the city.
"that……"
Alex wanted to say hello to them when he saw Yue Yulou and Lan Zhiyou get off the boat, but when he saw the unhappy expression on his girlfriend's face, he had to smile and point a little at Lan Zhiyou, and then took the fairy girl to the commercial street in the city...
"Brother Safi, there are so many golems in this city..."
After getting off the boat, Lan Zhiyou found that there were golems everywhere in the city, ordinary stone golems, steel golems, obsidian golems... and even crystal golems can be seen in the city. Many mages followed several golems, holding things or pushing boxes. In short, it gives people the feeling that there are more golems than people, and even the guards in the city are covered with arrays of alchemy golems...
"Olam is known as the capital of golems... It is normal to have these characteristics. You should know... Although the Silver Federation is a mage kingdom, mages are professions that require talent, so the number cannot be too large... To support a country, how can hundreds of thousands of mages be enough? Cheap labor is naturally indispensable... And the golem just meets the needs of mages."
Lan Zhiyou looked at the stone golems that seemed a little clumsy in their actions, and said in confusion:
"But the golem's movements are very inflexible? How could they solve them if it is a more complicated job? Didn't you say that the mages have studied beast-type humans? Why don't you use more flexible life forms?"
"That's right... the golem is indeed not very flexible, but the mages are actually constantly working hard to improve the golem. Now you are still a little slow to see golem because you have never seen the golem in the past. If you know what the golem in the past looks like, you wouldn't think that the golem in the present is dull... Moreover, since a rebellion in the beast-type human, the Silver Federal Assembly has believed that biotechnology is a dangerous and inhuman technology, and has banned all biotechnology research..."
Lan Zhiyou and Yue Yulou walked slowly towards the city gate, but when they entered the city gate, Lan Zhiyou curiously looked at the spell arrays and energy crystals on the dull steel golems in front of the city gate, and turned to Yue Yulou and asked:
"Brother Safi, the manufacturing process of these golems seems to be very complicated? Why can the mages make so many?"
Yue Yulou turned his head and sensed the magic power flowing on the golem, and then continued to walk forward, but while walking, he slowly introduced to Lan Zhiyou:
"The manufacturing process of a single golem is indeed complicated... but what if the steps to create golem are broken down? Master Razak, the legendary arcane of the Silver Federation and the pioneer of golem improvement technology, invented such a craft. As a modern person... you should not be unfamiliar with assembly line. As for the quantity... it is because mages not only have assembly line technology, but also have extremely advanced magic driving technology... Someone once said that if there was no dragon god in the world... the ruler of the world must be a mage."
Lan Zhiyou obviously couldn't understand it anymore. He scratched his head and said in confusion:
"That... are the mages' assembly line crafts and magical techniques that are really that powerful?"
Hearing Lan Zhiyou's words, Yue Yulou shook his head in disappointment, and he said lightly:
"You have been in the magic world for too long... Do you not even understand some of the most basic principles? Assembly line technology and magic technology represent a new era, while knights and priests represent an old era... Do you know that since the birth of the Silver Federation, the main force that has resisted demons in the past have been the mages... The war is not only the strength of both sides, but also the manufacturing capabilities of both sides... Logistical supplies, warriors' weapons, siege tools, materials for building fortifications... These all require strong production capacity to support them. Do you think that the labor of the farmers in the human world can solve all this?"
"And... the number of humans cannot withstand bloody battles with demons. In the Second Eclipse War, the casualties between humans and demons were as high as 100 to 100... If consumed at this rate, even if humans are ten times more than demons, it is not enough... The golem was born at that time, in order to consume quantitatively with demons... Do you know how fast the golem was created during the Fourth Eclipse War?"
“How fast is it…”
"On average, one thousand golems a day... Think about it, which race can have this kind of manufacturing ability? Now many human nobles are buying civilian golems from the Silver Federation for daily life. The magic technology that has always been disgusted by the church has begun to spread slowly in the human kingdom... Haha, after all, some things cannot be stopped by God."
Lan Zhiyou nodded thoughtfully and looked at the golem everywhere around him. For the first time, he felt that some aspects of this world were actually no different from reality...
After wandering around the city for a while, they planned to find a hotel to rest for a while, but when they walked to the auction house in the city, Lan Zhiyou suddenly slapped his head and turned to Yue Yulou and said:
"Brother Safi, are we going to get rid of some unnecessary equipment?"
Yue Yulou thought about it and found that the equipment he obtained from the underground world was indeed not better, so he nodded and entered the auction house with Ran Zhiyou...
"Do you two want to auction items or bid for items?"
As soon as the two of them walked into the hall, a mage apprentice immediately walked up enthusiastically.
“We are here to auction items.”
"If this happens... please come with me."
The two of them walked to a counter window with the apprentice, knocked on the counter, and said to the old master inside:
"Master Parson, these two are coming to auction items, please register."
The old mage stroked his eyes, looked at the equipment handed over by Lan Zhiyou one by one, and then wrote down the level and quantity of equipment on a piece of paper...
"A total of fourteen pieces of equipment, including three weapons, nine armor, two accessories... Six first-level magic items, five second-level magic items, three third-level magic items... There is another set of items."
After the old wizard wrote the list, he handed the paper to the apprentice. The apprentice looked at the items on it and said to the two:
"I didn't expect there was a suit... Two people please take the orders and items to the auction counter over there. Since the two auctioned more than ten items, they can get two free tickets... The auction fee is charged according to the auction price ratio. First-level magic items are charged 1% of the auction fee, second-level magic items are charged 2%, third-level 3%... Free of charge."
The two then handed over the things to the counter, and then after obtaining the visiting ticket, they entered the auction venue No. 3, which is where their things were to be auctioned.
"...This is a boot made of precious plateau snow wolf skin. A level 3 magic item can increase your defense and speed, and it can also reduce the effect of ice cold on you by half... If you have it, you will definitely be able to walk vigorously in the competitive conference, pass the level and kill the generals without any disadvantages... The starting price is 60 gold coins now!"
“62!”
“65!”
…………
As soon as the two entered the hall, a noisy noise made Yue Yulou frown. Then he and Lan Zhiyou found a remote corner, sat down and waited for their items to be auctioned...
"Please note! A heavyweight suit is about to appear!"
When Lan Zhiyou heard the word "suit", she immediately realized that their things had come on stage, so she gently pushed Yue Yulou and whispered:
"Brother Safi, our stuff is going to be on..."
"Oh...is it that thing..."
The curtain on the stage slowly pulled up, revealing an extremely weird equipment behind it...a bat-shaped mask, a bat-shaped belt, a pair of black boots and a black tight leather jacket with a bottom, forming a suit that reveals a weird atmosphere...
"Please see! This set of 'League of Legends' Night Knight' is made of an unknown bat skin. It is extremely tough and has basically no weight... and people wearing this set of equipment can be more than ten times more flexible than before, and can resist certain dark attacks, but the most important thing is... This set of equipment is attached with some very practical spells... Please check the attributes of this equipment."
After saying that, the attributes of this equipment appear in everyone's information panel...
"Eye of the Night (Eyeblock), Level 2 Magic Item, Defense +10, Dexterity +7, Dark Resistance +3%, Requirement: None"
"Night Wrap (Belt), Level 2 Magic Item, Defense +12, Dexterity +9, Dark Resistance +5%, Gravity +10%, Requirement: None"
"Foots of the Night (boots), Level 3 magic items, Defense +9, Dexterity +10, Action speed +13%, Dark resistance +3%, Attached skills: silent (passive, the sound of the player walking is reduced by half), Requirements: Players above level 1"
"Body of the Night (including the bottom), level 3 magic items, defense +30, strength +10, dexterity +20, dark resistance +10%, attack speed +14%, attached skills: gliding (active, players can glide from a height of 30 feet to the ground after release, consume 5 points of energy), demand: first-level or above players"
"League of Legends: Night Knight Set Combination Effect: Player's Dark Resistance +20%, Action Speed +1, Attack Speed +1, Get New Skills: Night Walker (passive, players at night, all stealth skill levels +1)"
After seeing everyone's faces showing a look of surprise, the host immediately shouted:
"How powerful this set of equipment is! Let me tell you a secret. The competitive conference will also be held in the evening... So, as long as anyone wears it, he will definitely have a place in the competitive conference, especially the assassins... Don't miss this good opportunity! The starting price of the entire equipment is 400 gold coins!"
“420!”
“450!”
“480!”
…………
The strange appearance and powerful attributes of this equipment quickly ignited people's passion, and the price of the equipment was like a rocket...
“It’s crazy…”
Yue Yulou shook his head in an absurd price, and he originally thought that this thing was worth up to 50 gold coins...
Soon, the equipment that Yue Yulou thought was worth only 50 gold coins was bought for 620 gold coins. He no longer cared about the auction after that. Until all of their things were sold out, he and Lan Zhiyou left the still-hunting auction house.
"Two guys, this is the 947 gold coins obtained from the auction, please click to collect..."
Lan Zhiyou immediately took the big purse, looked at the gold coins inside, and then said to Yue Yulou:
"Brother Safi, no problem..."
Chapter completed!
