Chapter 866 Elementium Magical Machine
Dian City.
It was a public city directly managed by the Witch Council. It was also an important entry point into the Northern Lands.
For the Goblin Chamber of Commerce who intended to expand their business into the Northern Lands, this city was undoubtedly a crucial point of focus for them.
Furor had returned to this city along with a group of goblin merchants.
The Northern Lands might be relatively safe, but the goblins of the Crimson Clan were still considered a subordinate force of the Fate Witches. As such, they ran into challenges from the Coldwinter Witches during this period of war.
As such, it was best for the goblins to travel with the goblin merchants who were escorted by magical machines.
Furor successfully entered Dian City with the magical emblem of the Crimson Clan.
These gears would spin wildly every time the armor took a step. The forcefield generators placed all over the machine could also form forcefield of their own. When paired together, they could erect a dome-shaped defensive forcefield that covered the entire construct.
The weapons on the armor included both the rapid-fire energy rifles and the area-of-effect magic energy cannons. A mysterious three-dimensional array filled the chest cavity of the armor, and a crystalline elementium golem core was embedded in the node of the array.
A magical machine like this had always relied on magic energy batteries for mobility in the past.
Without a small magic energy generator, such magical machines had to retreat from combat every half hour to swap out their batteries. That was not a problem in small-scale skirmishes, but it became a severe limiting factor in intense wars.
Greem was now trying to combine elementium golems with magical machines. It would allow elementium golems to possess a full metal shell to protect their frail cores while allowing magical machines to possess a perpetually beating heart of elementium.
This theoretical idea was entirely feasible after a few preliminary experiments.
However, the high-grade elementium magical machines that Greem personally made only used materials and resources of the highest-grade. Consequently, the cost of each unit was speechlessly high. If Greem wanted to mass-produce these machines, he would have to further optimize and perfect the three techniques of high-magic alloy, energy effect, and magical spirit.
Greem personally manipulated a Scalding Ray beam to solder together the last core component of the elementium magical machine. He slammed shut the metal door beneath its chest and took a few steps backward. After confirming with the Chip that there were no problems, he gave the order to activate the elementium magical machine.
[Beep. Order to activate elementium magical machine has been given.
[System self-inspecting.
[Defensive forcefields all normal.
[Elementium furnace has begun operation. All operations green. Output efficiency normal.
[Magic energy circulation system supplying energy to all other parts. Feedback results excellent.
[Mobility armor assistance system online. Signal is good. Beginning function tests.]
As the complex and refined magic energy systems started their operation, the two-meter-tall elementium magical machine slowly started moving and stood up from the ground.
It was almost as if a massive fireball had been stuffed into its thick chest; red flames and searing waves of heat surged outward. Extremely pure fire energy flowed out of the golem core, slowly lighting up the entirety of the machine’s body.
The magical alloy that gleamed with a cold blue light started to turn red and boiling hot from the surging fire energy, much like a flame giant that had been fished out of a volcanic sea.
Ka, ka!
The elementium magical machine strode forward with heavy steps under the control of the Chip. It raised the two magic energy rifles on its arms and started firing as it advanced.
The red beams crossed a hundred meters of distance and shot into the stone walls of the tower, leaving ten-centimeter deep craters in the stone. It was important to note that even the inner walls of the tower were protected with magic energy. Ordinary attacks had to first break through the magical defenses to damage the walls.
The elementium magical machine’s energy rifles would be enough to pierce the armor of human soldiers if it could leave a ten-centimeter crater in the wall of the alchemy lab.
The Chip performed some calculations and revealed that these high-energy rifles had as much as two hundred and sixty points of power with the power supplied by the golem core. It was already as powerful as the all-out attack of a Second Grade adept!
After finishing his tests with the rifle, Greem ordered the magical machine to test the magic energy cannon on its back. The machine squatted down, and the barrel slid to its shoulders and locked in place. Three seconds later, a blinding red fireball shot out of the cannon, thoroughly scorching the wall of the lab.
Four hundred and twenty-points!
Greem finally broke out into a smile when he saw the energy intensity that the Chip was displaying.
As expected of the first elementium magical machine he had spent three hundred and fifty thousand magical crystals to create. Its basic attack power was first-rate even amongst Second Grade adepts. In fact, it could even threaten Third Grade adepts under certain circumstances!
