In my mansion at the town of Volton, massive quantities of materials were brought in and Laeva and I were single-mindedly transmuting them in the workshop.
They’re 2.5m long and similar to the golems of Bohd Village.
We created one golem-controlling core and made identical copies intently.
Since it’s the economical version, the frame and exterior were uniformly magic steel. Magic iron ore and ingots were brought in for that purpose and we repeatedly used 『Extraction』 and 『Synthesis』 on the ores.
A massive amount of ingots, enough that the floor seems like it would give out, was created.
「………… will these ingots be good enough?」
「Yes, shall we take a short break?」
「Definitely, that was mentally exhausting.」
Since it was mentally straining to repeat the same process over and over, and because the ingots were completed, we decided to take a break for one day.
「Our Skill levels and Job levels steadily rose, but repeating the same process was boring, wasn’t it?」
「So true. I love working and creating things, but definitely not this.」
Even if we were manufacturing similar golems, I’d have liked to make each golems different from the other.
Starting the next day, if I was making the frames, Laeva would making the exteriors, and if I am making the exteriors, Laeva would make the frames so we wouldn’t get sick of it as we manufactured the golems.
Titan would sometimes help us with the masses of golem production.
「Do you have any ideas for a magic device aside from the golem?」
「I haven’t quite thought of anything. What about you, Laeva?」
「If distributing to individuals is improbable, how about establishing a magic device that generates a barrier at the churches of the villages and towns?」
「That’s possible. While the security golems buy time, they activate the barrier magic device and take refuge in the church.」
For the deployment of security golems, one per village and two per town would be good. If there are many zealots, it might be difficult to even buy time.
「Golems and barriers. I’ll think of other ideas besides these.」
「You’re right. I will think a bit more too.」
We used 『Synthesis』 on the magic stones, transmuting them into large magic stones. Furthermore, we enhanced the purity and processed them into magic crystals. These will be used as cores and magic power tanksbattery .
The completely assembled golems are stored in my Item Box after I check their movements. As one would expect, there’s no place to put a hundred golems in the mansion.
「What will we do about the enchantments?」
「Guh! I was trying not to think about that………. More or less, I plan to enchant them with Magic Resistance, Physical Resistance, and Self Repair.」
Whenever I think about how I need to enchant 100 golems, I become depressed. Though the economical security golems have physical resistance even without the enchantment, it doesn’t have magic resistance so enchantments are necessary.
「It would be difficult to make it so they can use magic like Titan, wouldn’t it?」
「Titan is a special guardian core. He skillfully controls earth magic, and he develops.」
「Master, if limited, magic, is it possible?」
「It’s certainly possible. Nevertheless, it can only shoot preprogrammed simple magic. But doing that for a hundred of them would go over the budget.」
Actually, the reason I won’t employ long-distance armaments on the security golems is because they are not able to perform complex situational assessment of their surroundings like Titan could. If their companions and protectee are caught up in it, they wouldn’t discern it. If it’s with melee weapons, it wouldn’t be difficult to program it so they would only attack hostile forces so the protectees are not caught in it, but when it comes to long-range armaments, one must calculate the line of fire and even its aftereffects, so it is impossible for golems aside from Titan at present.
Well, it doesn’t mean I’ve given up on it, though.
「Speaking of weapons, are the armaments of the economical golems still large shields and halberds?」
「Yep, the large shield is indispensable. I’m still at a loss regarding the weapon, but long weapons are probably okay.」
A spear, halberd, wooden pole, scorpion [1], bardiche. Hmm, should we still go for the halberd?
「If we’re to assume the battle will be outside, how about we go for a long-handled spear or a halberd?」
「Down to the hilt it will be all Magic Steel, correct?」
「That’s the plan. It’s for a golem so being a bit heavy wouldn’t be a problem.」
Once we finished the 100 economical security golems, we then started on the armaments. At times, I alternated what I was making with Laeva’s. Then 10 days since starting the golem production, we completed the 100 shields and 100 halberds.
