Chapter 144: Transcendent Hunter - Mechanical Golem
Stomping~
Stomping~
The horse's hooves stomped on the floor, making an exceptionally crisp sound.
Richard, who was sitting in the carriage, looked out of the glass window.
Prosperous, spectacular, fantastical.
This was his most intuitive impression of the Templar City.
After collecting all the troops into the Tibetan military plate, he quietly left the stronghold, hired a wagon on the street, and headed to the 17th block.
Although it is not known who Knowles is, who lives in Black Oak Manor, Ferguson must be the person he absolutely trusts when he says the other person's name at the last minute.
The Templar City is worthy of the status of the royal capital.
The main street is 100 meters wide, and on both sides are lined with domes ranging from three to five storeys and more than 10 or 20 meters high.
The style is simple and atmospheric, full of dignity and elegance.
Most of the blank spaces on the walls are embossed with angels and dragons, and each wall looks like the most precious work of art.
The stained glass bay windows of the houses scatter a variety of colors in the early morning sun, adding to the atmosphere of the street.
It's a place of surprising prosperity.
On both sides of the street, there are shops selling a variety of goods, and the crowds are full of people, and the variety of items is dizzying.
There was a bustling crowd of pedestrians, not just humans, elegant and proud elves, low and strong dwarves, orcs with wild animal heads...... and so on all kinds of strange races from time to time come into view.
And what attracted Richard's attention the most was definitely the players with particularly obvious temperaments.
From time to time, these guys ask some high-level NPCs next to them if they need help.
In particular, good-looking elves are the most popular.
It was also the first time that Richard had experienced the feeling of so many players shuttling around him, which was quite novel.
But he doesn't have any ideas about this way of experiencing, high-end rank, naturally has high-end gameplay.
After observing for a long time, he came back to his senses, seemed to think of something, and asked the coachman in front of him.
"Your Excellency, do you know the situation at Black Oak Manor?"
The young coachman seemed to hold back for a long time when he heard this, and muttered.
"My lord, why did you go to that manor? Inside lived an old man who liked alchemy and machinery...... The last time I helped him pull a batch of goods in, he was blasted out without even drinking saliva, and he didn't pay me yet, and I only gave me the last salary when I went the second time!
"The God of Justice is above, even if you are his friend, I have to say, that guy is simply the most stingy guy in the world!!"
Richard was stunned, this was a little different from what he thought.
"Alchemy and Mechanics...... What kind of alchemy machinery? ”
"Who knows, no one will be able to walk into his estate......
The driver often seems to help the other party pull goods, and he doesn't have a door in his mouth.
"The goods he needs are obviously similar to the ones I sent to other mages, the only difference is that there are a lot more mechanical ......"
Richard asked for many details, and finally got only a vague part of the information from the coachman.
The most mentioned by the other party was not to pay him, which made him cry and laugh.
"Your Excellency...... Black Oak Manor has arrived. ”
The young coachman's call woke Richard.
After paying the fare with gold coins, the other party also specially reminded him.
"If you're here to complete his bounty missions, be sure to pay for it with one hand or deliver it with the other, or that old miser will hack your belongings!"
Richard smiled dumbly, thanked him, and got out of the carriage.
The Black Oak Manor comes into view.
It is a medium-sized manor house with a courtyard wall seven or eight meters high, almost like a city wall.
Looking beyond the wall, you can see the towering oak trees inside.
But unlike ordinary oak trees, the trunks of these oak trees are all pitch black.
It seems that this is the origin of the name of the estate.
Stepping forward, he rang the magic doorbell that stood out in front of the giant gate that seemed to be made for the giant.
Richard waited a long time, just when he thought the doorbell was broken.
Babbling~ The gate of the manor has moved.
But before the door could open, an angry voice came out.
"Damn bastards!! Who bothered me while I was doing the experiment...... If there is no valid reason, trust me, I will definitely shove your head in the ass!! ”
After the door made of black oak opens a gap.
In Richard's sight, a dwarf about 1.4 meters tall, with a messy chicken nest head and extremely uncoordinated body proportions, appeared.
The other party's red rosacea nose looks like a clown, and there is a sense of comedy on the outside.
This is a dwarf-like race, but they don't have the strong muscles of dwarves and are more known for their intelligent heads.
Be a member of the Fortress faction.
"You rang the damn doorbell? Human, say what you mean!! Or I'll let you know, Lord Knowles' fist!! ”
Richard looked down at the fist-waving, angry dwarf, the corners of his mouth twitched.
Why does this guy look a little unreliable?
Was Ferguson sure he didn't ask him to find the wrong person?
Open the Properties panel.
Knowles
Hero units
Grade: 19
???
???
???
The pupils shrank sharply, and he was a level 19 hero again??
And this guy is not like Ferguson, who is seriously injured.
One body of strength is at its peak.
Even if the opponent is a dwarf, the strength of level 19 is enough to blast the boulder with one punch.
As his mind turned, he said in a solemn tone.
"Your Excellency is Knowles?"
"I have come to look for you on the commission of His Excellency Ferguson."
The dwarf frowned.
"That bastard from Ferguson asked you to come to me? Impossible, how could he possibly let outsiders recruit ...... Could it be that something happened to him? ”
As he spoke, his eyes stared at him, and at this moment, his gaze became extremely sharp.
The aura that was unintentionally emitted instantly made Richard feel as if he was being targeted by a giant dragon.
The tone was a little lower.
"His Excellency Ferguson was seriously wounded on the way, and while I escorted him from the out-of-town stronghold to the inner city, I encountered a traitor.
"The devil lured by the betrayer has brought Lord Alex Ferguson into the teleportation array...... Disappeared without a trace. ”
When these words were spoken, Knowles's face froze violently, and an extremely terrifying coercion on his body seemed to collapse like a mountain.
It was pressed against Richard's chest.
The dwarf's body was in a trance at this moment, giving birth to an abyss beast!
"What do you say?!!"
Richard took a deep breath and said word by word.
"Ferguson, who was seriously injured, was taken away by the devil, life and death are unknown!"
As he spoke, a special energy surged up in his body, enveloping him all over his body.
Richard lost his mark directly in the eyes of the other party.
"The Power of Concealment ??!!"
Knowles sensed this scene and quickly withdrew the coercion that had escaped.
His eyes were fixed on Richard, who had lost his traces.
"It's that bastard's skill! Unless he himself is willing to teach, there can't be a third person who will! ”
"I made an agreement with Ferguson that there are two versions of the power of concealment, the first one can be taught if forced to do so, but there is an obvious flaw in that skill.
"But you're using the full version, and I've given him a lot of advice on this skill, otherwise how could that guy be able to figure it out?!"
After a moment of careful sensing, the hostility on the dwarf's face vanished.
With a wave of his hand, the hidden power of Richard was erased by him.
His gaze softened a little.
"Human, who are you? Why is Ferguson trusted? ”
Richard's tone was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Lord of the City of Twilight, Richard, Your Excellency, we are talking at the door?"
Knowles turned his head to look behind him, and when he was sure there was no one, he nodded, motioning for him to come with him.
Enter the gate.
Babble~
Behind the gate, two giant puppets of extremely rough workmanship, like random piles of garbage, slowly pushed the gate shut.
Richard didn't care about it at first, but out of curiosity, he opened the properties panel and took a look.
In the next second, his eyes narrowed.
Brilliant 2 stars, level 11......
After seeing these two attributes, I immediately felt that this dwarf was not simple.
It looks like it's made out of hand, but it's on a glorious level.
Combined with the coachman's information, I instantly had a rough judgment of Knowles in my heart.
This dwarf is extremely extraordinary.
Entering the manor house, there is an open verdant meadow, and in the center a large oak tree with a black trunk stands out.
Instead of leading Richard into the main building in front of him, Knowles went around to the backyard and into a nondescript house.
The moment the other party pushed the door open, Richard breathed.
There are dozens of three-meter-tall mechanical golems inside, and each of them is a brilliant 3-star level, with a level of up to 14.
This dwarf, there's something......
Feeling relieved, Ferguson finally didn't cheat him.
Passing through these cold and hideous golems, in the central area, you will see a basement entrance.
"Boy, don't mess with what's inside......"
Knowles turned his head and admonished, then motioned for him to follow.
Following the wide staircase made of metal, Richard slowly walked down with the dwarf in front of him.
After a hundred steps, you will arrive at this mysterious area.
Richard turned his head to look around, and a picture appeared in front of him.
It is a huge underground space with a diameter of more than 500 meters.
There are a large number of mechanical golems around it, almost filling the space.
It's no worse than the arcane hall used by the Obsidian Mage Tower, an ancient ruin, to produce magical golems.
And in the most central area.
A 15-meter-tall mechanical golem resembling a prehistoric behemoth is erected in the center.
To his surprise, the mechanical golem's chest was open, revealing a space for adults to enter.
Is that...... Cab?!
This mechanical puppet can be driven by a human?!
As soon as Richard came to his senses, he opened the properties panel.
In the next second, the heart suddenly thumped and beat faster.
This dwarf, the cow breaks.
Transcendent Hunter - Mechanical Golem
Level: 20
Characteristics: Pilotable in combat
???
???
???
Level 20...... Extraordinary Hunter.
Although you can't see the specific attributes, just by the level of 20, it can already explain everything.
Damn, if you move this big guy back from the dungeon...... Won't you be able to go to heaven??
