Age of Adepts

‘The puppet, the constructor, is made by powerful witchcraft, and the automatic device of the element is also. Take a special mysterious substance and quench the anaerobic steel of the main substance boundary, the maximum characteristic of which is resistance to the elements. ’

Leroy? Em.

……

Constructors, mostly activated and unnatural objects created by wizards. And the puppet creature, one of the most powerful of them all. The greatest characteristic of the puppet organism is its resistance to the elements. In other words, the ability to mitigate elemental damage can only be described as a puppet organism. It is the strength of the wizard that led to the strength of the Elemental Damage Relief feature.

But elemental damage reduction does not mean that puppet creatures can become magician killers, elemental damage reduction only immunizes witchcraft against puppet creatures themselves, such as throwing fireballs into the ceiling or plunging puppet creatures into acid swamps with acid swamps, which can be well targeted. Not to mention that the puppet creature is mentally weak, only obeys simple orders and is weak against intelligent life.

In addition, the puppet organism is not completely immune to elements. Certain elemental witchcraft can have specific effects on certain puppet organisms. It is easier to combat puppet organisms by making good use of weaknesses.

……

Puppet creatures are mechanically activated creatures made of witchcraft with powerful powers. What makes them very different from other constructs is that they have the power to be angry - puppet creatures get magical life from an elemental soul, which is usually an earthly element. The process of creating a puppet creature will bind that soul to the fabricated body, merging it into this specially prepared container and obeying the will of the creator.

……

The puppet creatures have no mind, and they will not do anything else unless the creator orders them. They follow simple and clear instructions and cannot accept complex tactics or tactics. The manufacturer of the puppet organism may order the puppet organism within 60 feet of the puppet organism and the puppet organism can see and hear it. If not ordered, the puppet creatures usually do their best to execute the final order, and if attacked, they return fire.

When the manufacturer leaves, he can give the puppet organism a simple command to manage its behavior, or he can let the puppet organism take orders from another person, but the manufacturer of the puppet organism can always take control back by ordering the puppet organism to follow only himself.

……

Somehow, when I got the book, Grimm was like suddenly obsessed with it, and I couldn't help but read it over and over again.

Puppet creature is a good thing!

Forget about the high-order steel puppets, the basic challenge of the lowest clay puppets is also at the senior apprenticeship level. In other words, a team of purely senior fighters is likely to defeat the clay puppet if the profession is properly matched.

As close guards of witches, puppets and costumes are much more reliable and loyal than the guards who pay for them. But in turn, it's the puppet and the fabric that makes people talk about the price.

For the lowest order of clay puppets, a clay puppet without any witchcraft equipment weighs 600 pounds (about 600 kg) and stands up to 8 feet (about 2.4 m), all carved from soft clay. This clay puppet is not afraid of sharp instrument damage and only certain heavy weapons can inflict sufficient physical damage on it.

And such a clay puppet, the base price is 21,000 gold coins. For stone puppets slightly higher than clay puppets, the base price is 55,000 gold coins. A higher iron puppet, the base price has reached 80,000 gold.

Again, it fails to take into account the cost price of market supply and demand factors, which, when confronted with the war years, doubled the price of these puppet creatures, ideally suited to killing battlefields. If a small lord can acquire 3—5 clay puppets and join his army, he can gain a huge advantage in the war against other lords around him.

So, if you succeed in becoming a Puppet Manufacturer, then money will no longer be a factor bothering Grimm!

Unfortunately, making puppets requires not only a large quantity of special materials, but also an extremely high level of craftsmanship in the manufacture of monuments, as well as the ability to make soul tools. If the affinity of the Grimm gifted elements is a dark element system, perhaps the soul of some human creatures can easily be extracted to create a soul vessel that can impart primary wisdom to the puppet. But he was more of a fire element affinity, so he eliminated the possibility of this shortcut.

Grimm can only allow the chip to temporarily record the entire contents of this Puppet Creature Production Manual for later study. Instead, he himself began to study the new functionality of the chip.

As that slow and magical spell syllable sounded, Grimm's flat right hand flame lit a flame of magic that wrapped his palm around it along with some wrists.

Watching the flames burn calmly in your hands, the mechanical sound of the chip also sounds in your mind.

“… a complete mental force model has been detected, ask the subject to confirm whether to cure it? Note that this cure will lose 2 points of spiritual strength and 50 points of professional experience! ”

The same tip appeared once the last time outside the patrol tower. At that time, however, Grimm chose to ignore it because he was in danger and did not dare to experiment. But today, he wants to try what this so-called curing is all about!

“OK!” Grim said.

“Drop, the curing task begins now… Estimated completion time: 12 hours, 27 minutes, 13 seconds…"

With the chip tone, Grimm's mind trembled and clearly felt part of his spiritual power disappear without reason. On the other hand, the self-examination revealed that the occupational experience column on the Personal Data Form had dropped from 6141000 to 5641000.

Well... these 614 points of professional experience are all Grimm has gained over the past 6 years, including years of bitter meditation, countless failures in practice, countless times of parsing under dim candlelight, copying that obscure witchcraft book, and that dangerous and necessary horrible witchcraft experiment...

It has to be said that Grimm did waste a little. It has also been six years since I became a Wizard Apprentice, and the professional experience necessary to become an Intermediate Apprentice is half as good as it has been, and life-saving Witchcraft only masters one burning hand. As for the second witchcraft “Flame Arrow”, which is being studied, it has just collected its prerequisite knowledge and is a long way from successful implementation.

Analyzing this data, my body's gift attributes are also inferior among the high tower apprentices, which is no wonder that six years have passed before I became an intermediate apprentice.

But this is the Grim of the past!

Now with the aid of a chip, you are reborn, and all the difficulties ahead of you can be overcome.

The task of solidifying the burning hand mental power model took up almost half of Grimm's mind, which made him look a little mentally distressed. There is no doubt that it is no longer appropriate to practice and read any more sorcery related to the spirit of weariness, so Grimso laid down in bed and began to meditate deeply.

As meditation progressed, Grimm calmed down slowly, her breathing slowed down and her entire spiritual consciousness immersed herself in a strange and strange world.

As the silent room of the raven grew empty and silent, everything seemed to suddenly calm down. The feeling of the flesh * body grew blurred, like he was stuck in a giant marshmallow, and everything the body could perceive was getting further away from him.

Finally, spiritual consciousness, not bound by the body, suddenly entered a strange alternative world.

This is a world of light.

All kinds of colorful and strange lights are dancing in the air, filling every inch of space he can perceive.

Perhaps the intrusion of his spiritual consciousness shook up these irregular, unconscious light spots, and the whole strange world suddenly became a little different.

The soul, which carries the Grim spiritual consciousness, also begins to wander aimlessly in this world of light. Wherever he goes, different light points are like having a sense of autonomy and exhibiting very different behaviors.

Some of the slightly reddish lights apparently welcomed Grimm, and all the red lights close to his mental consciousness poured into his soul like a lark's nest, bringing him a hint of warmth. And some of the cold lights, like blue, gray, black, white... are obviously away from him.

As for the neutral purple, green, turquoise and other light points, they are neither repellent nor enthusiastic, and only when Grimm's mental consciousness touches them will they slowly integrate. The whole process seemed calm and peaceful and there was nothing unnatural about it.

The light of Grimm's spiritual incarnation wandered so slowly in the endless sea of light, passively embracing the integration of the light spot. Out of curiosity, Grimm couldn't help but direct the group closer to some white light spots. His arrival also undoubtedly provoked a riot of white lights, and he was also blessed to have wandered the senseless white lights before fleeing the area in fear.

Grimm was finally intolerable, and a colorless, transparent group of souls, guided by his strong consciousness, suddenly protruded an octopus-style spiritual tentacle and stabbed inside a slightly larger white light point.

The white light blew away and turned into a spiritual surge into Grimm's soul. Unlike the warm ocean when the red light dots blend in, this slightly miserable white light dot gives Grimm the greatest feeling of shade and silence.

It was like a late-night dream back when I suddenly drank a glass of cold water and my whole body couldn't help but fight a cold war. In addition to his cold sensations, Grimm's mental consciousness felt the pain of slight paralysis and corrosion. It seemed that the integration of that white light had caused him some harm, in addition to some spiritual benefits.
