Chapter 94 The Unexpected Sacrifice
Richard grabbed the list and flipped through the next few pages of pitiful secondary materials, and shook his head helplessly, realizing for the first time that he still needed to be careful in the material section.
He had already conceived a template for building a knight, but he died halfway through due to lack of materials. It is envisaged that the non-standard construct 'Burst' is paired with two standard 'primary strength', plus a non-standard construct 'Vitality', and the mount is equipped with a non-standard construct 'Rush', which has a terrifying instantaneous attack power, and the two strengthened strength is combined with the burst, and the attack power is increased by 150%. Such a terrifying direct attack power was enough to instantly crush the defenses of the first-order construct knight. Vitality improves the knights' ability to fight for a long time, allowing them to devote themselves to the next attack after a short rest. At the heart of this solution, however, are three non-standard configurations.
After rethinking the range and amount of materials he could use, Richard had to abandon all non-standard builds. However, he made a new list of more than a dozen materials needed to improve the standard build, and handed it to the female mage to procure. He had just asked clearly, and there was still a sum of money allocated by the real room, as long as the materials were purchased within the quota, there was no need to apply for it. As soon as the arrangements were ready, Richard himself began to construct the materials he already had.
Once immersed in the world of magic, Richard forgot about the troubles of the world for a while.
Still maintaining his previous habit of doing everything himself, starting with the collection of materials, Richard had already decided that his first Construct Knights would be made by himself from scratch to end.
The pieces of material are gradually refined into shape, and the complicated process is like being engraved in Richard's head, and there is no need to consult notes or books. The whole piece of heavy monster skin was cut into three pieces, and Richard's hand was as steady as a rock when using the knife, and after cutting the animal skin, it was almost impossible to tell the difference between the thickness of the three pieces with the naked eye.
When it comes to drawing magic arrays, Richard is more like the most sophisticated dwarf alchemy machine, often running for hours on end without making even the slightest mistake. Lines flow from the tip of the magic pen, each arc exactly like the most standard version.
Whenever Richard began to draw the magic circle, the two assistants would involuntarily hold their breath, not daring to make any sound, and unwilling to let go of every detail. But they never dreamed that the magic arrays stored as standard patterns in the magic texts could be copied in front of their eyes without changing or exactly!
They tried to memorize every movement, every detail, and all the steps in handling the material, down to the precision of every gesture. This is the greatest benefit of being an assistant, allowing you to observe the reality of a high-level mage up close. Now, there are many tricks and secrets to learn from Richard. They don't have the talent of a constructor, but improving their magic circle drawing ability will also benefit them in the future. And if they can learn some processes that only require proficiency, they will have a wider range of jobs in the future.
With each part, Richard would take a break. The local magic array took anywhere from one hour to three hours, but when Richard rested, he would always see that the two assistants looked even more tired than himself, and studying was also a kind of physical work. By the time Richard regained his energy, they were still pale and unsteady on their feet. Richard, who was loaded with 'vitality' on his body, had several times the speed of his body and energy.
In this way, in fact, the two assistants could not help much, and Coco was always on the side to help hand over a material and a tool, and even successfully cleaned an intermediate tool under the guidance of Richard, and did all the work of the assistant. This time, the female mage didn't blame Coco again, because she herself was almost all focused on studying, and it was just right for her to leave the chores to Coco.
Four days later, a 'Primary-Strength Force' was completed, a speed that stunned the two assistants. After the composition was sealed in a special box, Coco next to it handed over a piece of paper, on which all the materials used in the construction were listed in Juanxiu's clean handwriting, and the amount of materials used in the construction was listed one by one, and the amount required to purchase at the market price was marked at the back. This is the record that Richard asked her to carry out simultaneously, and it can be seen from this piece of paper that she is attentive and meticulous.
At the end of the paper, there is the price of all the materials, which is the cost of the materials for the composition. The final figure is 17,200 gold coins. This number surprised Richard, so he smiled and looked at Coco, and the girl quietly spit out**. She obviously knew the approximate price of a rudimentary build on the market, so Richard's cost statistics really surprised her.
Of course, this is only the cost of materials, and if you want to make detailed statistics, you have to add the labor costs of assistants and cocoa, the rent of the actual yàn room, the loss of equipment, and so on. Finally, and the biggest expense, is Richard's own time. Regardless of Richard's price, the cost of this construction is roughly more than 20,000 yuan, while the average cost of ordinary constructors is close to 60,000 yuan due to the failure rate.
However, Richard was not satisfied with this 'beginner power', because of the lack of several key materials, he could only follow the standard version, and the final increase effect was the same as the standard 30%. The structure is placed on the market, and the approximate price will fluctuate between 7.1 million.
No matter how dissatisfied he was with the effect of the 'Elementary Strength', Richard could only continue to do it, because there were so many materials in his hands. And the materials he wanted to get that could enhance the effect were not something he could buy for a while. The price is still secondary, and many of the materials in it, such as flame stripe stone, are out of stock all year round because of their wide range of uses and scarce production. It can only be exchanged from a few families whose territory has minerals.
Richard's template for this time is a traditional universal constructed knight with strength, two defenses, and an agility, with additional power on the mount, which can be used at any point in the battlefield, at any stage. Of course, this also means that their ability to turn the tide of the war in one fell swoop has dropped significantly, and if they want to play their full role, it depends on the wisdom of the commander. The total cost of such a knight's outfit is roughly around 100,000 gold, and the cost of equipping weapons and mounts is 20,000 gold. However, the above expenses again ignore the value of Richard's own time and effort.
These standard builds were familiar to Richard, so when he rolled out the second power build, he was quickly immersed in the wizarding world again.
