Roth nodded and waved his wand at the slow-moving Mud Golem. A small green ball made of strong acid flew out from the tip of his wand and splashed on the golem. The strong acid fell on the floor and began to smoke. The golem did not seem to have much of a reaction, except that the weeds and leather on its body quickly corroded and turned black. Then, Roth waved his wand.
With a turn of his wand, an invisible force, a magical vibration, took effect on the clay golem. The mud on top of it began to disintegrate, and it seemed to be on the verge of collapse in an instant.
"The clay golem weighs about seven hundred pounds. Their attack method is relatively simple, which is to charge straight at the enemy closest to them. Therefore, they are not suitable to deal with wizards, but are more suitable to deal with some beasts. What's more special is that they are very resistant to strong acid damage caused by acid splashes or strong acid arrows. The disadvantage is that although they are resistant to most spells and effects like other golems, they are not resistant to spells that cause tremors in the soil, such as Polymorph or Earthquake Spell." As Ross spoke, he pointed his wand at the mud outside the floor. The mud quickly gathered on the golem and began to repair itself. "Its biggest advantage is that it doesn't cost much to repair. As long as there is mud under its feet or around it, as long as it isn't completely destroyed, it can complete the repair work on its own."
"I've received Professor Geller's report before. I think these clay golems are more suitable for some special jobs, such as fighting. Some of the herbs and magical animals needed to make magic potions grow in poisonous and corrosive swamps. If they can be more agile, they can replace our workers to work in places that are harmful to the environment. The mud in the swamps is inexhaustible. We don't even have to do maintenance work regularly." Hermione added her plan to the others at this time.
"After the golem is made, the runes will have a resistance effect. It's not easy to repair them." Allen touched his chin. "But if the clay golem is easy to make, Mr. Geller, please give me a copy of the information. I think it's very suitable for junior Hogwarts students to learn how to make golems in their alchemy classes. The materials are available everywhere, and there's no need to worry about waste or damage."
When Ross nodded his head in agreement, Foggy was a little surprised at the strength displayed by Ross's Silent Curses. His impression of this guy who spoke too slowly changed.
"Uh, actually, when I put the golem research on hold, I went to the Ravenclaw Temple with my sister for a period of time to study. I also became a believer of Madam Ravenclaw. My sister learned some recipes of Madam Hufflepuff … and I mainly learned alchemy and these little tricks." Roth. Ross was a little embarrassed by the sudden applause, but he could not suppress the smile on his face. It was obvious that this nerd also liked to be praised. He waved his wand at the golem and said, "For this second golem, we used volcanic rock. Due to the hardness of the rock, we can carve more complex patterns on the surface and the inner layer. They will not be afraid of transfiguration spells like the clay golems. With their hard material and the enhancement of defensive spells, they will become a formidable opponent for wizards. For this golem, we have cast a slow spell on its feet."
As he spoke, Roth ordered the flesh golem to approach the golem and circle it. Although the golem was running a little unsteadily, its speed began to drop sharply as if it had started moving in slow motion. Then, Roth used the same trick he used on the clay golem. This time, the shock spell did not cause much damage, but the acid splash had a greater effect. After Roth covered the damaged part with mud and cast a Mud to Stone spell, the damage was restored.
The stench of the flesh golem became even stronger. Hermione could not help but frown. "Mr. Geller, although I've already reminded you that this flesh golem is not suitable for public use, its appearance and smell make it unsuitable for ordinary households. The smell of the preservative on its body can't cover up its stench …"
"Mr. Geller, I also think it's better to devote our energy to the research of other materials." In the face of the pungent smell of preservative, for the sake of his image, Allen resisted the urge to cover his nose and whispered to Geller, "You also know that Hogwarts are teaching wizards to use necromancy. Wizards can directly summon such helpers. Although this flesh golem is a construct and is not considered as an undead, it still makes people feel uncomfortable when they look at it. Of course, I'm not asking you to completely stop the progress of this technology. It's just that you're currently focusing on other materials, such as wood or something. What about the cheese golem you used to have? "
"Erm, indeed, this flesh golem is not perfect enough. In fact, Principal Harris, among the remaining three golems that we haven't taken out, there's a wooden one. However, due to hesitation, we haven't solved the problem of fireproofing yet. It's not suitable to show it now. The problem of the cheese golem that may go out of control after being corrupted is also difficult to solve …" Ross only felt a moment of panic when his flesh golem was rejected by his favorite star Quidditch and his superior.
Ross Geller had continued to make golems with Allen's financial support as early as that year in the Goblet of Fire. However, later on, it was put on hold because of the cost-performance problem and he turned to develop Mr. Handy.
"Next, let's be more direct. Let a few golems fight directly and let us open our eyes. I'm very optimistic about your fourth metal golem, Mr. Geller." Allen sensed the other party's anxiety and comforted him.
"Oh … Okay, Principal Harris. You really have a good eye. This golem is my most confident work today. This battle will end soon." Ross breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Allen's words. Eager to show off, he quickly ordered his subordinates to give orders to the golems.
The flesh golem let out a roar. Under the order, the golem that was closer to the golem stopped circling around. It returned to its normal speed and quickly rushed towards the clay golem. In a series of disorganized but rapid attacks, each attack could make the clay golem drop a large piece of mud.
The golem also launched an attack on the iron golem. It waved its giant stone hand and raised its fist to smash the iron golem's breastplate that was temporarily ordered not to move. It made a loud knocking sound on the metal, but it did not cause any dent at all. The golem operator also began to wave his magic wand and cast spells of different attributes on the metal golem. Under the effect of those magic words, these spells that were deliberately chosen for display and could be resisted did not have any effect.
Then, the metal golem began to move. Its right hand began to rotate in an inhuman manner, and the double-ended sword in its hand also began to rotate like the blades of a helicopter. Although the moves of the metal golem were simple and did not have any special combat skills, it attacked the golem with an indomitable momentum.
The golem's Slow spell was also unable to stop the metal golem's attack. Although the golem's speed was slowed down, the giant double-ended sword was still powerful and heavy. Sparks burst out as it collided with the stone golem. The hard stone golem's defense was enhanced by the magic words, but when faced with the sharp sword that was also engraved with anti-magic words, it became more and more vulnerable as the patterns on its body were gradually destroyed. After a short stalemate, when the magic words on the stone golem no longer had any effect, the golem was quickly cut into pieces by the double-ended sword meat grinder.
After destroying the golem, the metal golem did not use its sleek speed to rush toward the other two golems that were fighting each other. It raised its left hand and fired some arrows that were difficult to see with the naked eye at the clay golem, reducing it, which was already on the verge of collapse, into splashing mud. Only then did everyone notice that the metal golem's left wrist was bulging high, and in the shape of an iron tube inside, there was a Wadi Wasi spell that could make objects quickly shoot out objects.
The flesh golem lost its target, and after a moment of daze, it rushed toward the metal golem. The metal golem did not move. It waited for the other party to rush within thirty feet before it suddenly opened its mouth. A cone-shaped scorching flame spewed out from its mouth, and the blazing spell enveloped the flesh golem in front of it. The sound of oil sizzling rang out, and a wave of stinky and barbecued smell wafted over. The burning flesh golem began to melt, and finally, its head rolled to the ground and was smashed into minced meat by the metal golem's metal palm.
"Whirlwind Sweep!"
"Clean it up!"
This time, the employees of the golem workshop completed the cleaning relatively quickly, and the golem had been restored to a motionless state. The group could not help but applaud for its undamaged state.
"The body of this fourth golem needs about seven thousand pounds of various metals to be molded, coupled with special potions and mixtures to be smelted. But this fourth golem is the most outstanding golem in all aspects, and it can also be customized to fix the spells on it according to the customer's needs, "Ross said with confidence. His tone was full of confidence in the metal golem. "Thanks to Principal Harris, now that we have made a deal with the Muggle, although the Muggle can't produce metal with magic power, the cost of the metal has been greatly reduced even if it requires us wizards to reprocess it. And the supply is abundant, which is much lower than the price of the metal golems I designed a few years ago."
"There are many dangerous wild animals in the areas that we have developed. Delia Island, the northernmost part of Scotland, is an area that we have not developed before. Legend has it that there are Five-Legged Monsters that were transformed from the wizards of the McLivor and McBoen families. They have caused some losses to the wizards... These metal golems are the perfect vanguard for us to develop the frontline." Hermione said, "Its price is still relatively high for the average family, and it's not necessary. I think the golems are more suitable for the average family. They can also do some simple physical work and complement Mr. Coincidence."
"Although it looks more agile, it's too heavy. If it encounters a skilled wizard, you know the two spells I used against the fire dragon in the first match of the Goblet of Fire competition, right? It can easily render these heavy golems, which are more resistant to magic, useless." Allen looked at the metal golem that would cause a slight vibration when it walked and said, "But the technology of the fourth golem does seem to be more mature. As expected of a product born out of your previous iron golem. As long as you solve this problem, there will be no problem with mass production. Perhaps you can refer to the Muggle's technology, such as the jetting device, so that it can have the power to break free of the soil for a short period of time."
"Yes! Headmaster Harris! Speaking of the Muggle's products, Miss Granger's father has also helped me a lot in the golem research. He gave me some suggestions. We have always been targeting the wizards, but the Muggle World doesn't seem to be too peaceful. Now, we are deepening our cooperation with the Muggle World. So, after Mr. Granger's reminder, I have already started the research on the weapons of the Muggle. " Ross Geller was a little awkward when he complimented Hermione's parents. "It's not too difficult to just defend. The Muggle's weapons don't contain magic, so they can be easily defended or deformed. However, some of their ideas may be able to improve the weapon system of the golems and floating ships because their weapons have a terrifying long range." Ross was a little embarrassed. He had already stopped the research once because of the cost-effectiveness problem, so he asked in a low voice, "So, Headmaster Harris, if we want to continue, I'm afraid we will need more financial support. Also, if there are some wizards who specialize in alchemy who can help me, I think we can proceed faster."
"That's a good idea. For example, the previous blazing fire can't be compared to the Muggle weapons in terms of range. Mr. Geller, the fact that you can notice this shows that you are indeed keen in your profession. The umbrella will give you enough financial support. Also, my friend, the prime minister of the Muggle World, should be happy to introduce me to some people in the Muggle military so that I can provide you with some information on the weapons of the Muggle. Of course, you will probably have to learn the knowledge of the Muggle in a systematic way before you can understand it." Allen agreed with Ross's idea. He also understood his concerns. "Don't be too anxious to produce results. This can't be rushed. If you need more manpower … Uh, Mr. Geller, have you ever considered becoming a professor? My university is lacking talents like you. Other than being in charge here, you can also take some time to teach those young people your alchemy knowledge. You can also train some apprentices in the university. After these apprentices graduate, they can directly come here to work and help you achieve these goals. "
