Tarrar smiled at Langdon who seemed eager to do business with Aldred. Since he was the CEO of this company, Aldred had given him a lot of bonuses. In fact, the bonus could even reach 50% of the profit generated. This made him work even harder.
“We have two types of golems: Soldiers, and workers. We use to limit our buyers on how many they can buy per month, but since you are a good friend of my boss, I will let you buy as much as you want.”
Langdon laughed. “I appreciate that. But can I take a look at the golem first? I see you are very confidence about your product, so I am very eager to see it.”
“You won’t be disappointed,” Tarrar said before he called for a bunch of worker golems and fighters golem to enter the room through the portal.
Langdon nodded with satisfaction. “I have heard that your golems are created purely from rare-grade treasures. Why are these golems not?”
“It’s the economical version,” Tarrar said. “You know our golems can be destroyed, but they will regenerate soon after.” Tarrar then punched a hole on the golem, and everyone saw it regenerated.
Langdon was impressed.
“The golems can do this indefinitely.”
“Really?” Langdon ask. “What about mana crystal? Do I have to replace it when it run out?”
Aldred and Tarrar smiled and said at the same time: “No.”
“Impossible.”
“This is one of the reason why so many people and groups wanted our golems. These golems are hard, relentless, and tireless. In fact, people have been calling the golem as ‘Undying’ due to how tough they are to disable.”
“There has to be weakness,” Langdon said.
“There are,” Tarrar replied. “Either you disintegrate the golem’s entire body at once, or you trapped it with a spell. This can be done by burying the golems, ensnaring them, freeze them, or petrify them into unmoving stones. But the most common way to disable them is to destroy the spell that enable them to move around in the first place. Of course there might be other ways to destroy the golems that we have not know yet.”
“Wait a minute, your golem does not require a mana crystal to function?”
“For some models yes. The ones with mana crystals is of course a lot more expensive, but you don’t have to replace them because they will never run out of mana.”
“How did you do that?” Langdon asked.
“That’s a trade secret,” Aldred replied with a smile.
Langdon smiled back. “Right, forgive me for asking.”
“No need to apologize. So, are you interested?” Aldred asked
“Of course, I am interested. But can you show me the power of these soldier golems.”
Tarrar nodded and ordered for two fighter golems to step forward and face each other. “These are our fighter golems. Their blade can be made with anything, and so does their whole body. If you want to be cheap, they can be made of stones and wood, but if you want better protection and durability, you can give them rare-grade treasure.”
“What do you mean by ‘give’?”
“They can absorb nearby materials and used them either as armor or weapons.”
Langdon and Lura widened their eyes.
“That’s quite amazing,” Langdon said.
Lura nodded a few times. “There’s a lot of things we can do with that function. Like raiding the enemy’s base, and then telling the golems to absorb everything for them to use, and when they return, we can tell the golem to give back the treasures that we need.”
“Okay, I want to see them fight,” Langdon said.
Tarrar nodded and raised his hand. Immediately, the two fighter golems slashed the floor, throwing dirts to each other’s eyes before they charged forward.
Raising their swords at the same time, they kicked each other in the chest, sending both golems crashing to the wall. The golems didn’t waste any time and pounced at each other. They had the same fighting style and attack pattern, but Langdon noticed that their style improved as the battle went on ever so slightly, and each golem tried to do a unique maneuver to get an advantage over the other.
Langdon frowned. “I noticed their fighting pattern are quite unique and changing as time went on.”
“Our golems can adapt to their enemies and will change their fighting style if the battle is prolonged.”
“So they will change style if they come to a disadvantage?”
“Not only that, the golems will also learn the fighting pattern of their enemies and try to find out a weak spot to defeat them.”
Langdon and Lura was speechless. They had never seen a golem like that. Most golems were brainless, moving stones that were only useful for their strength. Not only were they expensive to build, use, and maintain, their toddler-level intelligence also made it hard to use them as anything.
But these golems were different.
“They are a better fighter than the average warrior. In fact, it might reach the Elite level.” Langdon said.
Lura was shocked to hear her father’s comment. Her father was a Diamond Rank warrior, and if he said that these golems were at the Elite level, then they must be.
After the fighter golems fought each other for a few minutes, two gunner golems lifted their weapons and bombarded each other with thick fire bullets, and flame throwers.
“Stop the fight,” Langdon said. “I have see everything I need to see.”
“I wanted to show you the artillery golems, but they will destroy this room,” Tarrar said with a slight disappointment.
“It’s fine. I believe in your product. I am buying all type of golems you have for 10,000 units.”
“Father, are you sure you want to buy that much?”
“Daughter, don’t let others think that our city is too poor to afford their product. Of course, I want to buy that much. There are a lot of criminals lately, and the guards needs a lot of extra help to take care of them. And There are more pirates in the sea nowadays. And don’t forget that we found a new mining site. We can use the golems to dig the dangerous site.”
“Yes, our golems are perfect to do jobs that are too dangerous,” Aldred said. “They are after all not humans and therefore fearless and couldn’t feel pain, so feel free to put them in the harshest environment possible.”
After a little bit of chatting, they signed the deal and was very happy with it. Aldred will get a lot of money, and Langdon will get a lot of fearless and undying subordinates that would do everything he told them to do.
After the deal, they talked happily while enjoying the food and drinks. His wives were happy to see this deal succeeded, after all, if they had more money, they could get more ships and treasures.
“What was it that make you come to this city again?” the lord asked.
“I am looking for a friend’s parents.”
“Ohh, maybe we can help. What are their names?”
“They are called Lina and Nordig.”
“Hmmm. Get some rest. I will take care of it.”
“Thank you, Governor.” Aldred smiled.
