MARVEL: GAMER PATH - CHAPTER 107 (Patreon)

Golems were malleable creatures, even though they had no will of their own, they could adapt, learn, and evolve within their own parameters, like the golems I had created, a week ago, they were low level, but after a week of taking them to the dungeons to test a few scenarios with them, they had leveled up quite a lot.

I mean, it was to be expected. I had taken them to dungeons far beyond their level, each dungeon giving them ten or so levels per completion, and in less than a week they had leveled up to level one hundred.

[Clay Golem - S LV 102

HP = 100.000/100.000

MP = 1500/1500

Skills = Retribution, Clay Shot, Will of the Clay.

Retribution = The Golem stores 15% of the damage he receives to punish his opponents.

Clay Shot = Using his mana, the golem creates more clay to shoot at his opponents, it can shoot up to 10 clay shots at the same time.

Will of the Clay = The Golem burns all his mana to create four identical clones of itself that deal 50% of his damage, but have the same resistance and HP the golem had upon activation.]

[Stone Golem - A LV 112

HP = 275.000/275.000

MP = 9500/9500

Skills = Harden, Reflect, Recover, A Game.

Harden = The Golem increases his defense by a 200%.

Reflect = It reflects all physical damage for a five-second duration as long as the golem has the minimal level advantage of 5, otherwise he ignores 75% of all upcoming damage.

Recover = When the Golem’s hp drops below the 10% mark, he will dig into the earth to recover, but this will only happen if the golem has backup, if the golem is fighting alone, he will prioritize dying to protect its creator.

A Game = Once dead, the Golem comes back to life, with all of his power, ready to fight. This ability is locked for one hour after use.]

They were already strong enough to kick anyone’s ass on earth, I had just started testing things out, like, I had just found out you could equip items on them, as long as you created said items with the same base material they were made out, for example, a clay sword for the clay golem, and a stone hammer for the stone golem.

Another thing I had just discovered was, you could enchant them. They were basically sentient items without a will of their own, so as items, I could enchant them, like with a pair of shoes, or a weapon, increasing their overall strength even more.

And that was not all, I had also discovered you could give them skills.

How?

Well, by adding a scroll of the skill you wanted them to have in the mix, within reason, of course, golems had limited capabilities, but could still learn powerful skills, again, within reason, like my newest stone golem, who even though was level 15, had mana arrows on his arsenal.

Each new discovery added a new whole perspective to the crafting game and my end game in the great scheme of things. The more I experimented, the more I learned, the more I was sure about my original idea, that little by little was growing alongside my discoveries, showing me that I had been right all along, the industrialization of Golems and other magical structures and or items was the way to go.

For example.

Right now, my two high-level golems were doing a low level for me completely alone, they could enter dungeons without me, and 1% of all the EXP they earned inside said dungeons, was mine, regardless of my whereabouts.

Now, 1% EXP was nothing, when it came from two golems alone, but now imagine a few thousand golems leveling up for me, now imagine a million, at a certain point that 1% becomes something, right? 

If I managed to fully industrialize their creation, I would essentially turn my entire leveling experience, into an AFK game.

I would at all times, be gaining EXP, eating? EXP, spending time with the girls? EXP, in the bathroom, EXP, 24/7, I would be getting gains.

Meaning right now my goal was to get my crafting skill to a high enough level to make an automatic magical forge to create thousands of my babies, which was already the original goal, but now that I had confirmed a few theories, and had seen a few things, well, I know knew what was possible, what could be, and what was not.

[Crafting LV 59]

According to the books I had acquired, the first magical forge was to be unlocked on level 135, said forge was made out of clay and was at one time used to create an army of clay soldiers, its sole purpose was that to create life out of clay, with a few minor modifications, I would use this forge an army of clay, clay golems, how I would automatize said process, I had yet to figure that out, perhaps I would put a golem there to manage the production, who knows?

“So… are you playing god know?” I heard someone ask, that someone was Fury, who was looking at my Golems with a bewildered look on his face.

“No,” I snorted, “They are my soldiers.”

“Huh, that answers nothing, but I won’t press on, your magical bullshit confuses me,” Fury replied without missing a beat.

“So, do you need a favor or?” I asked with a narrow look.

“Bitch please,” Fury rolled his eye at me, with a small smile adorning his face, “It’s movie night, or did you forget?”

Oh right, it’s Friday, “Oh, yeah,”

“So… will your two creations join us?” Fury asked, eyeing the golems.

“No,” I shook my head.

“Good, they freak me out,” Fury sighed in relief.

“You are scared of golems of all things?” I laughed, “Well, ain’t that a kick in the a,” 

“Oh, I’m sorry, is the correct response to suck their magical nuts in awe?” Fury shot back, “Just because you deal with this shit on a daily basis, does not mean it’s natural, I’m a spy, I deal with weird shit, and this,” he pointed to the golems, “Is weird as fuck, which is a lot coming from me, I mean, I saw a fucking human centipede a week ago, and this two behemoths still get the cake in the end,”

“Ok, that’s just too much, your sensibilities are all over the place, you see people forced to eat other people’s asses, and two moving statues freak you out? I think the human centipede it’s by far the most disturbing thing of the two, and I have seen Odin flirt with his wife,” I snorted.
