《The Tale Of A Golem Master》Chapter 6
Advertisement
After a few hours into working, I used golem understanding on Faker, and the same prompts popped up, but with assassin rather than an archer, and it would take five hours to complete. Once that started, I continued to work on a second workshop, specifically for making golems. After Golem Understanding completed, I was about a fourth of the way down with the layout of the second workshop. While working I decided to send the two cameagles to follow and observe the rest of the core of Jishuka's guild. I had them observe Pon and Vanter since I need more font-liners to supplement the assassin and archer golems I plan on making. I started with Vantier and his class turned out to be guardian knight, not that it made a difference to the time for the skill since it would take five hours just like Faker. I assume that Pon would be a similar situation, I feel as if five hours might be the baseline for most of the normal classes, but it probably has more to do with their current skills.
After another 12 hours, I obtained two more production methods and finished the layout of the workshop. Now I need to head back to one of the villages and buy everything necessary for blacksmithing, alchemy, and sculpting. First though, I decided it would be ideal to craft a basic party of golems that Martimer could lead to go hunt some mobs while I go out. They could pose as NPCs or players and none would be the wiser as long as I give them the cloaks and mask I had bought before. Of course I will probably need to make the golems of similar sizes for regular clothes though, since getting clothes that auto-fit is expensive. That reminds me, I should get the method to make a golem that can be a tailor to save myself some time. Wait, why don't I do this for all professions? But, it might be ideal to wait on professions other than tailor, in case I have the opportunity to get a higher rated class in that field later. With that thought in mind, I sent my last bird to go to an NPC shop and see if I could fine a tailor that is of intermediate rank or below.
As I headed to the first workshop, I noticed that Martimer was sitting on the bench, probably waiting for her next mission since it seems like she finished with the small expansion I required. I sat next to her as I waited for Torva to finish with the bow she was working on. It seemed like she already finished one bow, a shield, a few pieces of armor, a sword, and a spear while I was working earlier. From what I can tell by the way Grid craft's anything, he takes a long time and puts his full concentration on it. In the case of Torva, it looked like she was doing just like Grid was, and was focusing her full concentration on what she was doing like she was in her own world. After a while, she finished her latest bow, placed it on one of the racks nearby, and looked towards me.

"Torva, I'll need to use the workshop to make you two some more companions so that Martimer could go out and hunt without needing me to be there."
After I made that statement, she silently stepped aside and took a seat on the bench nearby. Once I make the golems, they will have to go without much armor until Torva can craft enough for them. I made two archer golems, two assassins, one guardian knight, and one spear knight. Only one of them became a growth type and that was one of the assassins. I didn't give names to any of the golems except for the assassin one that I named Shade. I also made all the golems except for shade, androgynous in features since, unless they were of a growth type or somehow broke through, I didn't want to put to much into them.
Currently there were enough weapons and arrows to be used by the golems but that was about it so I gave them clothes, a cloak each, and a mask. I send them with Martimer while I headed to winston to buy more materials for blacksmithing and getting everything I need for a second workshop. On the way there, Martimer's party cleared the way of mobs so that I could have a clear path there. They were surprisingly pretty good at fighting, even though the majority of the new golems weren't very mentally advanced except for Shade, they still did their jobs well. The assassins pulled mobs, the guardian knight and Martimer aggroed them, and then the mobs would be systematically defeated by the rest of the party relatively quickly.
By the time I arrived at Winston, Martimer's party headed back into the forest to hut and gather as many materials they could to lessen the burden on my wallet. Before I headed towards the chain of NPC shops I needed to go to for my workshop, a little birdy found me an intermediate tailor. It happened to be a user named 'deezmuts'. It seemed to be an older person because, man is that joke outdated. For the first time though, when I used golem understanding on him, the production method had the class as a growth type but not the golem itself, so it wouldn't go towards the growth type golem counter for my class. That kinda sucks but, I'm sure it will be fine. That just means that it can't level up through tailoring but can only grow in skill level so I will need to send it out with any hunting groups of golems in the future. It would take 10 hours so I decided to put that off until tomorrow since I've been on for a long time already. After buying everything I needed, along with a large amount of cloaks and additional mask, I decided to check on Grid to see his current progress.

When I checked on him through a cameagle, he was fighting some outlaw's with an arrow... wait. He's using an arrow as a weapon? Does he not have anything else he can use instead? I saw him equip a sword before so I was expecting him to use that. My guess is he probably needs to repair it. That still doesn't explain the fact that he doesn't have a backup weapon and is somehow using a consumable as one. He is doing a good chunk of damage to them too, despite the level difference between them. After fighting for a while, it seemed like he was yelling at the NPC blacksmith to let him borrow his sword. A good choice if I say so myself. While I was watching him I was contemplating something, I wonder if I can somehow let Torva see through this cameagle and she can learn by watching him. Sadly that didn't seem like an option but, I did figure out an alternative. It turns out that she could use her appraisal skill, and constantly disassemble and reassemble the cameagle she can make one of her own! I sent my last cameagle to Torva and had her do exactly that because, if she could learn from the original, then she could improve and maybe even surpass his skill, hee hee hee.
After Grid defeated the outlaws, he took Khan to the nearby clinic since he passed out. At that point, I had decided to stop paying attention to it and had Martimer's party pick me up at the entrance of the forest since even though I managed to level up to 25, it is still dangerous for me due to the wide range of levels that this large forest has. When I got back to the hideout, Torva was constantly assembling and disassembling the cameagle. It seemed like she had little progress each time she did it so it might take a while, but she had a bright shine in her eyes when she realized what she was doing this for. At that point I set up the second workshop and dropped off everything else I needed to in the makeshift storage of the hideout before logging off. Stepping out of the capsule, I did my routine stretches, cooked some turkey, worked out for an hour or so, took a shower, then logged back into the game. Once I got back on, I started to observe 'deezmuts' right away and then check on Torva's progress. When I got there, the cameagle was sitting on a ledge, while I heard the bangging of a hammer from Torva. Looks like she got full understanding of the cameagle and is working on one of her own.
While she was doing that, I checked on the materials in the storage, and I had enough to make another team of golems with one archer, one assassin, one spear knight, and one guardian knight. It was at that moment that I realized a strong weak point I had in the team makeup of my golems, I was missing a healer! I Sent my free cameagle to find a priest on the double since I needed to make one asap because the only way my golems regenerate health was through waiting and couldn't use potions. How could I have not thought of this before? Damn I'm glad I remembered it early on, I couldn't imagine what would happen if I thought of it later down the line. It didn't take the cameagle long too find a priest player in a party with a mage, knight, warrior, and archer. A normal mage was another one I forgot about. Oh well, nothing like the present.
Both the priest and mage would take four hours so I started with the priest while making the finishing touches on my second workshop. When it finished, I devoted my full attention to making a few priest golems, rather than just one. After a few hours, I ended up with four but none of them were growth types but one of them had a rare rating so I got a slight increase in stats. I got them clothes, a cloak, and mask right away. Just like the policy I made earlier, all of them looked androgynous. I had some staffs lying in storage so it would have to do for now until Torva could craft some more. I might need to make some normal blacksmith golems but for now I will let Torva be the focus for blacksmithing. I recalled Martimer's party and had two priest join them before sending them back out. It looked like Torva finished two cameagles and sent one to follow the main hunting group to survey their surroundings and another to follow Grid. I had my cameagle that was following Grid, come back and stay on standby.
