Global Descent to Sky Islands: Getting a God-level Talent from the Start - Chapter 59

“Coal, quickly run!” Han Xing shouted as he ran.

However, Coal, who had already entered combat mode, glanced at Han Xing and then looked up at the Energy Golem in the sky.

In the next moment, black light surged from its body as it leaped into the air, catching up with the Energy Golem, which was in the middle of casting a skill.

Han Xing caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye. At this moment, Coal was like a monster, charging into the air to pursue the enemy!

Taking advantage of the Energy Golem’s inability to defend its Energy Core while casting, Coal extended its wolf claws and launched a frenzied attack.

At this time, the defense value of the Energy Golem’s core was dropping at a speed faster than the stock market.

One second later, the core’s defense value plummeted to zero.

Coal extended its wolf claws and began to blindly claw inside.

A cloud of smoke rose as the intricate lines on the Energy Golem’s body dimmed as if its energy supply had been cut off, forcing a shutdown.

Then, the massive body plummeted from the sky.

Boom~

The enormous body fell, sending up a huge cloud of dust, and the violent impact nearly knocked Han Xing off his feet.

After the dust settled,

Han Xing saw that Coal was standing atop the Energy Golem’s corpse, its head held high, exuding a majestic aura.

He swallowed hard and, after a while, said, “Big Bro Coal, you’re truly fierce…”

Meanwhile, a system notification appeared.

[You Have Completed the Lost Palace Hidden Quest: Kalon’s Experiment Report.]

[You Have Obtained the Challenge Rewards: Champion Fragment x8, Rune Crystal x370, +18,000 XP, Pet Coal Gained +14,400 XP.]

[Obtained Quest Item: Kalon’s Experiment Report]

18,000 XP was an enormous amount, instantly filling his experience bar to 100%.

The next moment, a flash of white light appeared on Han Xing, and his level increased once more.

In addition to the massive amount of experience, a document also appeared in Han Xing’s bag, the quest item awarded by the system.

Han Xing took it out and glanced at it.

[Kalon’s Experiment Report]: Quest item. With this report, you can go to Kalon’s kingdom laboratory to extract the Energy Golem’s experimental data (the map has not opened, unable to proceed with this task currently).

There was also a piece of the storyline below.

……

“On the 21st of the 7th Month, the 13,153rd experiment achieved exciting results. I have finally created a powerful golem that can be mass-produced. I must inform the king of this news as soon as possible to deploy the golems in the war.”

“On the 25th of the 7th Month, Monet came to the palace to see me. She is as beautiful and captivating as ever. I heard she has many admirers among the elves as well. She’s so perfectly stunning, like a celestial being fallen to the earth… And I, just a dwarf who secretly admires her from afar…”

“On the 26th of the 7th Month, Monet heard about my experimental results and was very impressed. She praised my talent, saying even among the elves, there’s no one as clever as me. It was the first time I saw a hint of appreciation on her usually cold face, and at that moment, my heart felt like it would melt!”

“On the 27th of the 7th Month, Monet is still staying at my palace as a guest. We research together, go out together, and enjoy the moon together. I’m so happy that I even brought out my treasured Black Vine Wine. We both got drunk…”

“On the 28th of the 7th Month, Monet and I woke up together in the bedchamber. I know we did something last night that goes against the morals of our races, dwarves and elves, how could we… But Monet, her chest was so big!”

“On the 29th of the 7th Month, we did it again… Monet is so overwhelming that I threw all my morals out the window.”

“On the 30th of the 7th Month, Monet and I did it again…”

“On the 1st of the 8th Month, did it with Monet again… (learned some new positions)”

“On the 2nd of the 8th Month, elves are amazing!”

“On the 3rd of the 8th Month, it’s hopeless. I spent the entire day today not getting out of bed…”

Seeing this, Han Xing couldn’t help but cover his face.

What kind of crappy quest item is this? It’s filled with this kind of lewd diary.

And it seems like just a dwarf being toyed with by an elven woman.

Han Xing continued reading.

“On the 17th of the 8th Month, Monet called me Dr. Kalon and expressed her desire for me to share the method of making golems with her. However, the experiment data had already been uploaded to the palace, and the king’s orders prohibited it. Seeing her disappointed expression tore my heart apart, but there was nothing I could do.”

“On the 20th of the 8th Month, Monet finally left the palace. I feel a bit empty inside…”

“On the 25th of the 8th Month, the Golem Palace suddenly suffered an inexplicable attack. The palace was blasted into ruins, but luckily, I was visiting my uncle’s home that day!”

“On the 26th of the 8th Month, the kingdom sent a dwarf knight to investigate. The conclusion was that it was likely the work of the Shadow Clan, those minions of the demon race surely intended to steal my experimental data! But they certainly didn’t anticipate that I had already set up a self-destruct system in the palace, and at the moment of attack, all the data was automatically destroyed!”

“On the 1st of the 9th Month, I moved to the main city of the kingdom. All experimental data has been successfully transferred.”

“On the 7th of the 9th Month, I suddenly remembered something important. In the Golem Palace, there are still some hand-drawn designs and data that haven’t been cleared. This is bad, very bad!”

……

After reading the quest introduction, Han Xing had a general judgment in his mind.

This ‘Kalon’s Experiment Report’ is likely a chain quest, and he has completed the first part, which means he has obtained the item for the second part of the quest.

“But where is Kalon’s kingdom laboratory? The system says the map is not open, preventing this quest from proceeding?”

Han Xing could only temporarily put this quest item into his bag.

Then, he walked to the remains of the massive golem and clicked dismantle.

[Successfully dismantled the Enhanced Energy Golem (Elite), Obtained Special Clay x9182, Obtained Mithril x681, Obtained Rare Earth x16455, Obtained Enhanced Energy Core x1……]

Once the elite golem’s remains disappeared, a system notification appeared.

[You have completed the Cloud Secret Realm, Lost Palace Tier 3 Challenge. You will be automatically teleported out in 10 minutes, after which the Cloud Secret Realm will vanish.]

“10 minutes until I can leave here?”

Approximately two and a half hours had passed since he entered, and he had reaped considerable rewards. The greatest reward, of course, was the massive amount of experience.

Not only did he level up to 7, but Coal also reached level 6.

Additionally, there were 11 Champion Fragments, and a vast amount of materials were dismantled from these golems.

While Han Xing was quietly waiting to be teleported away, something caught his attention from the corner of his eye.

In the spot where the elite golem had originally awakened, there was a large shallow pit.

At the bottom of this pit, there seemed to be some hand-drawn design.

“Hmm?”

He quickly walked over. At the bottom of the shallow pit was a floor paved with bluestone.

Han Xing immediately noticed that several sketches of golems were etched on the floor. Next to the design, there were clear annotations on the construction path of Mithril, as well as the proportions for Rare Earth and Magical Clay, among other materials…

He thought back to the last sentence regarding the quest item.

Kalon had mentioned that there were still some hand-drawn designs and data left in the Golem Palace.

With a face full of astonishment, Han Xing said: “These drawings, could they be…?”

The next moment, a system notification appeared, as expected.

[You have discovered Kalon’s Energy Golem Crafting Sketches and the related schematics have been automatically recorded.]

“What?!”

Hearing the system’s notification, Han Xing opened his mouth in shock.

He wasn’t sure what crafting sketches entailed, but he knew for certain that a new blueprint had appeared in his system interface!

Does this mean he could actually use the blueprint to craft this type of golem?

Thinking along these lines, Han Xing managed to quell his excitement and quickly checked the blueprint’s details.

[Energy Golem Blueprint]: Using this blueprint, different levels of Energy Golems can be crafted. The number of Spirit Cores added during crafting determines the golem’s level. To craft a Level 1 Energy Golem, 1000 Spirit Cores are needed. For a Level 2 Energy Golem, 2000 Spirit Cores are needed, and so on. (Note: The maximum level of the crafted Energy Golem cannot exceed the survivor’s level.)

[Crafting Materials Required]: Energy Core x1, Special Clay x8000 (can be replaced with Refined Iron), Mithril x1000, Rare Earth x12000, Ether x20000.

[Crafting Success Rate: 10% (Affected by the ‘God-level Craftsman’ talent, the success rate has reached 100%).]

After reading the blueprint description, Han Xing was once again taken aback. This was a blueprint that could create golems of varying levels.

Moreover, the materials needed to craft the Energy Golem were not complex. They were relatively common materials.

Doesn’t this imply that, as long as he has enough materials, he can use this blueprint to build an enormous army of golems?

“Does this mean I won’t have to fight monsters myself in the future? I can just send in a golem army to overwhelm them?”

Han Xing’s breathing became a bit rapid at this thought.

Because this plan seemed very feasible!

Although creating Energy Golems requires a lot of materials, with his god-level talent and the players’ gathering capabilities, why worry about collecting vast quantities of materials?

However, Han Xing was being overly optimistic.

The materials for crafting the Energy Golem might not be complicated, but the most crucial part was the Energy Core.

Although he had the blueprint for creating the Energy Golems, he did not possess the method for crafting the Energy Cores.

Furthermore, he currently only had a few Damaged Energy Cores on hand.

Han Xing counted and found he had only seven. Even if he repaired them all, he could only create seven Energy Golems.

His dream of a golem army was shattered.

Han Xing cursed: “That Kalon, why did he only make the blueprint for the Energy Golem but not draw the schematic for making an Energy Core as well? Stupid guy, what a simp!”

It’s a good thing Kalon wasn’t there, because if he heard it, he would likely retort angrily: “What’s wrong with being a simp? Did being a simp cost your family any rice?”

However, Han Xing was still content. After all, with the materials he had on hand, he could make seven Energy Golems.

Even though they were just of common level, their toughness exceeded ordinary elite creatures. Just this defensive attribute alone was enough to drive someone crazy.

This trip to the secret realm was worth it!

At that moment, Han Xing noticed that some sketches were covered by the ruins at the corner of the deep pit.

…
