Dimensional Expedition

Chapter 194: 194. Omen (second update)

Views:

Lu Cheng learned about the difficulties in casting the golem of the Secret Order from Master Winnie's narration.

The core drive of the golem is the fragment of the earth core. The stronger the golem, the larger the earth core fragment it needs.

This also resulted in the strategic-level golems in the Secret Society being extremely large in size.

But the real reason why the golem cannot be passed down is the difference in individual magic power levels.

High-level golems must be created by spellcasters with powerful magic. The gathering of magic power cannot be achieved by relying on knowledge and learning. It requires a long period of "cultivation" and communication with the earth veins.

Master Winnie is seventy-three years old this year, and his magic power level has barely reached the fifth level. According to the "theory of earth vein communication" between spellcasters, Master Winnie can now absorb magic power around the mantle area.

As a second-tier spellcaster, Elena's magic power can be compared to that of a kitten, which will feel dry after releasing a few fireballs. Master Winnie's magic power is like that of an elephant.

In the Gemansis Secret Society, there are approximately thirty-seven spellcasters like Master Winnie who have reached the fifth level.

"Even though we know the inscriptions, materials, and design drawings for constructing the golem, we still can't replicate it?" Lu Cheng asked.

Master Winnie shook his head, and Lu Cheng could see a deep helplessness on his dry face.

"You first need to have enough magic power to attach the inscription to the material." Master Winnie said, "A young magic apprentice's control over magic power and all the quantities will be useless before the complicated enchantment process."

"So… have you ever considered using golems to make golems?"

Lu Cheng asked the question he had always wanted to ask. At this time, Nancy, who was still explaining "Jiangcheng Tourism Knowledge" to Elena, suddenly looked at Lu Cheng.

"Did Nancy tell you this idea? I have already told her that it is impossible. No country can afford the magic power required to operate a golem for a long time. It is impossible." Master Winnie said.

"It doesn't necessarily need to be driven by magic."

Lu Cheng walked to the front of the bus. At this time, the bus had arrived at the destination and stopped, and the door slowly opened.

"Welcome to the Dongfeng Motor Manufacturing Plant in Jiangcheng. Here you will see the modern manufacturing process of the 'Golem'," said Lu Cheng.

The first stop of this tour was to visit the automobile production assembly line. Lu Cheng knew that he could not convince this stubborn potion master with words, so the most realistic thing to do was to put the real assembly line operation in front of him.

Lu Cheng led everyone off the bus. There was already a special person to greet them outside the factory. The greeter was a middle-aged man wearing round-frame glasses. After seeing Lu Cheng, he saluted Lu Cheng, and Lu Cheng saluted him back.

"Hello Captain Lu, I am Li Wei from the Security Department." He walked up to Lu Cheng and gave a brief self-introduction.

"Lu Cheng, I'll trouble you to lead the way today."

When Lu Cheng shook hands with him briefly, he could feel him looking behind him with curious eyes, but this gaze did not last long, and he took Lu Cheng towards the factory.

The people behind Lu Cheng had already changed into modern clothes, and Elena and the others did not have any inhuman features. The only thing that caught people's attention was Elena's crimson pupils and Noyi's silver-gray pupils.

So as long as Charlotte doesn't turn back into a groundhog on the street, they will just be regarded as foreigners even if they walk on the street.

"Lu Cheng, is this where female car beasts live?" Elena ran to Lu Cheng's side and asked in a low voice.

"Elena, cars are machines, not living things. Teacher Lin should have taught you this."

Lu Cheng thought that Elena kept adding the suffix "biological organisms" to the end of her cars because she liked them as a nickname.

"But I always feel that they are alive," said Elena.

"Feel?"

At this moment, Lu Cheng noticed that there was something wrong with Elena's wrist. When Elena was about to walk in front of Lu Cheng, Lu Cheng reached out and grabbed her wrist.

Elena subconsciously tried to break free, but this girl was so powerful that Lu Cheng was almost thrown to the ground by her wave of her hand. Fortunately, Lu Cheng quickly let go of Elena's wrist.

It is early spring in Wuhan now, with the temperature around 13 degrees. Elena is still wearing the same long-sleeved shirt, but the pattern on her chest has become Queer... a fruit juice drink from childhood that is no longer seen now.

When Lu Cheng held Elena's arm through her long sleeves just now, he clearly felt that the touch was not like human skin, but rather like hard steel.

"Elena, what's wrong with your arm?" Lu Cheng realized that something was wrong.

"Nothing..." Elena hid her hands behind her back like a child who had made a mistake.

Lu Cheng and Elena's little movements were also noticed by others. Levi, who was leading the way in front, also stopped and was waiting for Lu Cheng and Elena.

"Elena, tell me as soon as possible if there is anything abnormal with your body. Don't worry... I won't let you go back early."

Lu Cheng knew the reason why Elena concealed her physical abnormality, probably because she was afraid that Lu Cheng would end the journey early.

"real?"

"When have I ever lied to you?"

Lu Cheng was actually lying in this sentence. If Elena was in any life-threatening condition, Lu Cheng would take her back to Scarre without hesitation.

Lovely Lianna still believed Lu Cheng’s lies and pulled open her sleeves hesitantly.

Scales.

What Lu Cheng saw on Elena's wrist were scarlet scales, which emitted a light red glow. On the scales, Lu Cheng could also see tiny inscriptions flickering slightly.

"Lu Cheng, what happened to Elena?"

Nancy, who was walking in front, saw that Elena and Lu Cheng were slow to catch up, so she asked about Elena's health.

"She's in the same state as Charlotte, with some of her magic leaking out. We'll be right here."

Lu Cheng quickly pulled up Elena's sleeves, and when she looked up at Elena, her eyes were filled with anxiety.

"How do you feel now?" Lu Cheng lowered his voice and asked Elena.

"It wasn't anything special, just that there were these weird things on my wrists. I wanted to tear them off, but they seemed to have grown on my arms," said Elena.

"Let's go visit the car manufacturing factory first." Lu Cheng thought for a while and made this decision. "Tell me immediately if you feel any discomfort."

Lu Cheng is not a doctor, and even the genius doctor on Earth probably wouldn’t be able to cure the symptoms of scales growing on the arms, and these scales would glow.

But now Lu Cheng has no way to drag Elena back to Scarre, and her condition needs to be observed for a while.
