Grand Arcanist of Azeroth

Chapter 3 Making Arcane Puppets

Back in the dormitory, Herald took out the magic crystal from his pocket and put it on the table, then began to meditate to recover his mana.

The processing requirements of magic crystals are not high, but the consumption of mana is a bit large.

Although the mana output during processing is very stable, this process is like a water pump pumping water.

The pool is just that big, and it will bottom out when you pump it.

Herald has only the mana of an intermediate mage.

He pounded it intermittently many times before he could free up a magic core.

To continue processing after each interruption, you must patiently find that magic energy node.

This is why mages will learn to make arcane puppets when they reach the strength of advanced mages.

How strong is the mana of a senior mage?

Ten mid-level mages tied together are no match for high-level mages!
Their mana is extremely strong, and they can complete the etching of tens of thousands of magic energy nodes in one go.

Mana, a mysterious substance, is a magical substance produced by the fusion of spiritual power and magical energy.

It cannot be directly used for attack and defense, but it can make various magic elements take effect.

The magic element is equivalent to fire, and mana is the fuel.

The caster provides mana, and the magical elements burst into force.

In Quel'Thalas, rich in magical energy, it is convenient for high elf mages to restore mana.

This leads to the cost of magic items, which is much lower than that of the human kingdom.

A magic core is placed on the side of the human kingdom, and there is not a thousand gold coins that cannot be obtained.

Even if the Dalaran Magic Kingdom is built on the magic net node, the production cost is only slightly lower.

The Sunwell is the spout of magical energy, and the magic net node is the opening for leakage. The two cannot be compared at all!
After finishing the short meditation, Herald continued to tinker with his magic core.

After several times of fidgeting, the complete magic core was finally completed.

He is not going to sell the magic core that this arcane puppet can use.

The magic materials for the arcane puppets are all in place.

Time to make an arcane golem of your very own!

Mid-level mages have arcane golems, which is a bit high-profile.

But Herald's full name is Herald Dawnhead.

As a member of a big family, he has a lot of resources at his disposal.

Buying a finished product also makes sense.

The magic core placed on the table quickly absorbed the surrounding magic energy to fill itself.

With the injection of magical energy, the arcane light at the core of the magic becomes more and more dazzling.

Glancing at the increasingly dazzling arcane light, Herald casually covered the magic core with a cover.

After solving the light pollution, he began to concentrate on shaping the carrier of the arcane puppet.

Under the effect of the fossilize into mud spell, the texture of granite becomes soft and can be shaped at will.

Herald was a game programmer before time travel.

And he also majored in fine arts, which is a level that can be used as an artist.

Even though this memory has been dusty for many years, it is still very clear once awakened.

All kinds of gorgeous and cool game models are definitely at your fingertips!

However, if the appearance of the arcane puppet is too out of the ordinary, it is likely to attract the attention of big shots.

In the end, Herald's first arcane puppet, the overall style is still relatively abstract.

The difference between it and the traditional arcane puppet is that it has a complete torso.

The torso of the traditional arcane puppet is missing a lot, only the upper half of the torso is complete.

The function of this half of the torso is to connect the shoulders and the head.

The abdominal cavity down from the chest is hollowed out, and a magic crystal is used to connect the upper body and lower body.

The arms are also connected to the shoulders with magic crystals.

This wonderful design scheme is the result of the research of those professionals in ancient times.

It is said that this can save materials and does not affect the use.

In ancient times, the elves had not split into high elves and night elves.

The elves at that time were far more powerful than the elves now!

Therefore, the arcane puppet has never been on the battlefield.

Since there is no need to go to the battlefield, it is of course no problem to expose the magic crystal to the outside.

Moreover, the arcane energy gathered by the magic crystal prevents it from being easily destroyed.

But Herald couldn't understand this design.

He modified the arcane puppet a little, so that the incomplete place is protected by armor.

The arcane puppet after minor changes looks more human-like in appearance.

Standing still, it's like a suit of armor made of rock.

What this kind of arcane puppet has in common with traditional arcane puppets is that the magic lines on its body flow with arcane energy.

Arcane puppets use arcane energy, of course there is nothing wrong with this!
Looking at his masterpiece, Herald nodded in satisfaction.

Well, a puppet is supposed to look like a puppet.

What kind of puppets are puppets that are scattered and scattered?
A huge arcane puppet, sitting quietly beside the desk.

In the absence of a mission from the master, there is almost no difference between the arcane puppet and the stone statue.

Only the eye sockets with the arcane light constantly flashing, it can be seen that it is in normal operation.

There is currently no suitable job for Herald to do for arcane golems.

The height of the dormitory is only about four meters, and the arcane puppet can't even stand upright.

So it sat on the floor and answered Herald's various questions.

This strange scene of question and answer is to study its intelligence.

Herald didn't dare to torment the arcane puppet at the entrance of the Moon Temple.

Keep walking around it asking this and that, and the arcane golem will set off the alarm.

Soon the person in charge came over and cursed people.

My own arcane puppet can naturally ask any questions.

Obtaining data through continuous questioning, Herald had an objective evaluation of the intelligence of the arcane puppet.

It's almost at the level of a kindergartener.

Kindergarten children can distinguish their own people from strangers.

They know that this thing can be done and that thing cannot be done.

Although the way of distinguishing good from bad is too rigid, there is no problem in implementing this set of standards.

After obtaining the desired data, Herald put the arcane golem into sleep mode.

Then he began to consider ways to strengthen the intelligence of arcane puppet.

The intelligence of arcane puppets is related to their magic core level.

The more magic energy nodes in the magic core, the higher the intelligence of the arcane puppets.

A big guy who usually guards the gate and patrols, and charges without thinking when fighting, of course does not need a lot of intelligence.

Herald wasn't too pleased with the arcane golem's intelligence.

He opened the secret door on the chest of the arcane puppet, put his hand in and pressed the magic core, and began to modify it accordingly.

A program with a high degree of intelligence is a huge system composed of one logic after another.

The more logic you have, the higher the requirements for the chip.

The magic core is similar to this.

Only when the hardware facilities are improved can the intelligence aspect be improved.

When Herald was busy strengthening the magic core, a dragon eagle cub landed on the window sill, gently pecking at the glass with its beak.

Seeing this dragon eagle cub, which was not as big as a rooster, Herald opened the window suspiciously.

When he reached out to touch the baby dragon eagle, the baby dragon eagle disappeared very abruptly.

There was only one scroll exuding arcane light left in place.

"Magic messenger! Who is so extravagant?"

Herald muttered, and clicked on the scroll on the windowsill.

The triggered scroll slowly floated up, and then unfolded in front of him.

The purple text composed of arcane energy is very eye-catching, as if it wants to be engraved into the mind of the reader.

After reading the eloquent letter with hundreds of words, Herald turned it into arcane energy and dissipated it.

Most of the letters are gorgeous affixes, and the content is also a lot of gossip.

In summary, there is not much real content.

Herald's rearranged content is simple.

"Boy, I found that you are very capable. I have signed you up for this spell competition."

Spelling tournaments are held every year.

Academies of magic and magic from across the High Elves' kingdoms take part.

This kind of spell competition is graded according to the grades of the students.

Although there are occasional dark horses, the probability of this is very small.

After all, the cultivation intensity of high elf mages is too low, so there is basically no chance of such a coincidence.

However, Herald, who was promoted to an intermediate mage, was precisely that dark horse.

And it's the biggest dark horse!
