Chapter 986 Strengthening the Construct
With the sand golem, Ma Yun's life has an extra layer of insurance. Under the protection of armor, even if she is sniped by a shooter or stabbed in the back by a thief, she will not be killed on the spot.
When necessary, you can also drive the Golem mecha and switch to melee mode. With its 26 points of strength attribute, its height of more than 4 meters, and its thick armor, it is not a problem to challenge the likes of hill giants alone.
Ma Yun still wanted to create a sand golem. She also wanted to use the professional ability of the magic weapon master to install a clockwork module on the sand golem to give it the ability to cast spells.
Unfortunately, he was short of money and only had 10 ounces of magic crystal left in total, which was not enough to make a set of "energy springs" to open the magic pool for the sand golem.
"I have two plans now. One is to continue to accumulate magic crystals, and when I have accumulated enough, I can modify the sand golem and open the magic pool; the second is to give up strengthening the sand golem and use the magic crystals in stock to modify the Scarecrow and Tin Man, giving them They installed the 'Magic Clockwork', which solution do you think is better?" Ma Yun asked Gao Fei.
After Gao Fei thought about it for a while, he said to her: "There are two options, one is the icing on the cake, the other is a timely help."
"If this were in the middle and early stages of the game, I would think it would be more cost-effective to strengthen the sand golem. However, it has now reached the late stage of the entire game module. Even if you have worked hard to save enough magic crystals and modify the golem, you will only be able to modify it. It’s really not necessary to enjoy one or two chapters.”
"If you ask me, these precious resources should be used to strengthen Vita and Nick. After all, they are your teammates who will stick with you through thick and thin, and they are more important plot characters than Sand Golem. Now help them When you level up, your strength will improve immediately and you will play a greater role in adventures.”
"As for the Sand Golem, it is already very strong even if it cannot cast spells. The marginal utility of continuing to strengthen it is too low and is not cost-effective."
"Yeah! Brother Fei, I get it! Just use this long rest to strengthen our Scarecrow and Tin Woodman friends!" Xiao Ma started working happily.
At this time, Jiang Feng walked out of the bathroom while combing his hair, and complained to her boyfriend with a smile:
"Xiaoyun's Internet addiction is getting bigger and bigger. At 7 o'clock in the morning, we would get up and play games with her... I think it's time to find a boyfriend for her, who specializes in treating adolescent girls. The problem of excess energy.”
"Comrade Xiao Jiang, this is your experience, right?" Gao Fei teased his girlfriend, "No wonder you slept like a pig after we completed the spell casting ceremony yesterday. The richest man called in the morning, and the ring rang for a minute. You don't even open your eyes."
"What! I'm afraid of the cold and don't want to get up from the warm bed to answer the phone, so I pretend to be asleep..." Jiang Feng suddenly realized that he had spilled the beans and changed the subject with a shy smile, "Husband, why haven't you entered the game yet? "
"The plot has not yet reached the entrance of the allies. The richest man has to go solo for a while." Gao Fei stood up from the sofa, "While there is still some time, let's have breakfast first."
"Okay! I also want to eat noodles with scallion oil!"
"We had a good meal last night, aren't you tired of it?"
"How is that possible?! Husband, the scallion noodles you made are so delicious, I won't get tired of them even after eating them for a week!"
"You're so sweet, I'll give you an egg." Gao Fei kissed his girlfriend's sweet red lips, walked into the kitchen, and put on his apron.
…
After breakfast, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng returned to the game.
Ma Yun's modifications to Scarecrow Vita and Tin Man Nick have also been completed.
Vita is the "Trickster" and Nick is the "Judge". They are both spellcasting professions and have their own magic pool. Compared with the Sand Golem, there is no need to install an additional "energy clockwork", which saves a lot of money.
Ma Yun installed two sets of "spell clockwork" for Nick, instilling 2-ring "Complete Repair" and 3-ring "Lightning Beam" respectively.
Vita also installed two sets of spell springs, which also have "Complete Repair" and a 3-level "Frost Nova".
From now on, Nick and Vita can use the clockwork module to perform the "Complete Repair Technique" to repair their damaged constructed bodies, which is equivalent to 10d6 when converted into a healing amount.
"Lightning Beam" provides Nick with a means of group attack, and "Frost Nova" improves Vita even more.
Vita's profession "Trickster" is the most restricted among all mage types. Before level 6, you can only choose from two schools of magic: "Illusion" and "Charm Control".
As we all know, the "School of Illusion" and "School of Charm Control" lack offensive magic, especially in the early stages, and are weak in head-to-head battles.
However, through the "plug-in" such as the clockwork module, Weta can bypass the restrictions of the school and finally be able to cast offensive spells, no longer a soy sauce character on the battlefield.
At this time, it was almost dusk, and the lion Dimitri was so hungry that his stomach growled and he wanted to go hunting in the woods.
Nick, the tin man with a steady personality, knew that his lion friend was a reckless daredevil, and was worried that he would get lost in the dense forest or have an accident, so he asked Miss Wizard to accompany the lion on a hunting trip.
At the same time that Nick sent the request, Ma Yun received a system prompt and learned that the next main task was to follow the lion to hunt.
"Nick, Vita, do you want to go hunting together?" Ma Yun asked the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman.
His two friends shook their heads together.
Constructs do not need to eat, and hunting for Vita and Nick is like eunuchs visiting a brothel, which is no fun at all.
"Okay, my friends, you two stay here and guard the camp. Dimitri and I will be back as soon as possible."
Since "Hunting in the Forest" is a main mission, the smart mage lady speculates that this hunting trip will not be smooth sailing. There is a high possibility of encountering a monster ambush in the picture. For insurance reasons, she brought the powerful thug Sand Golem with her. , accompanied by her magic pet "mechanical dog" Toto.
The lion hummed a tune and trotted ahead.
Ma Yun had to speed up the pace behind her, reminding the lion to run slower from time to time. It felt like walking a dog.
Passing through a forest, there is a gurgling stream in front of you. The clear stream reflects crimson brilliance under the setting sun.
On the hill across the creek, a cave can be vaguely seen under the cover of shrubs.
Just when Ma Yun was looking around curiously, a wolf howled from the bushes.
A green-grey beast jumped out with bared teeth, looking like a strong dire wolf.
"Ha! Dear Miss Mage, look what that is? A fat little wolfdog!" The male lion Dimitri's eyes shone with excitement, he rubbed his paws and swallowed hard, "I haven't eaten for a long time. The tender wolf meat is now ready for a delicious meal tonight!”
