When the news of the sudden death of the baron's nephew and Captain Martin came back to the church, the old carpenter and John were overjoyed and praising the goddess.

Then, in the witness of John and the old bishop, Gallo held a simple initiation ceremony for the old carpenter to make him a new believer.

According to the previous agreement, the old carpenter went back to build a carriage for Gallo.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to ask Gallo to take care of the kittens.

"Don't worry, what I eat, what they eat."

Gallo said.

It was not until both of them left that Gallo and the old bishop went to the backyard of the church.

golem was brought back and was hidden in the backyard, which was originally used to pile up sundries, there was only a simple shack around it, and was not much space. As soon as golem came, it was full.

"this thing is really strong."

"and it's black, round and cute."

Gallo touched golem's cold, smooth surface with his hand. While commenting, he asked back:

"how much do you think it's worth?"

After careful observation, the old bishop said hesitantly:

"I'm not sure about the exact price."

"but look at this shell. Does it look like it's made of black gold?"

"according to my understanding of the market, my mastery of prices and my insight into high-end materials. This golem costs hundreds of gold, doesn't it? "

"hundreds of gold?"

Gallo opened his eyes wide and hurriedly put on his control gloves.

"what are you doing? do you want to sell it? "

The old bishop asked hurriedly.

"or what? We don't need it. It stay here and take up space. "

"No!" The old bishop shook his head again and again.

"in my experience, the number of high-end golem, like this is very small, and each one has a clear record. If you sell it, isn't it tantamount to revealing your identity?"

Gallo has to admit with regret:

"you are right. What should I do with it? Take it apart to sell? "

The old bishop thought again and suggested:

"Why don't you just keep it for your own use?"

"Don't you want a carriage? Use it to pull a rickshaw. "

Gallo suddenly realized and nodded again :

"that's not bad! It looks much stronger than a little donkey! "

But immediately realized a problem and hurriedly asked:

"but. Is it too conspicuous in appearance? "

"especially here. It looks very unsightly. "

He pointed to the huge ruby at golem's waist.

According to the instructions on the glove, this ruby is its main energy source. It will continue to heat when it is running, and it must maintain heat dissipation, so it is placed in this position.

"Let's find a way to transform it. Go and buy some paint first."

The old bishop said.

So the two got busy.

Gallo first bought blue and white paint, painted golem's limbs and back blue, and painted his head, hands and feet and belly white.

He also brought some waste wood, cobbled it together, made it look like an apron, painted it white, and put it on golem.

After a lot of trouble, golem has completely lost its true color and looks like a fat blue man in a white apron.

Next, Gallo is going to add some divine technique to golem.

This is a custom , after people buy a high-value item, they will always habitually ask the priest to bless it.

If it is the rich , they will often hold a ceremony, banquet and so on with great fanfare to accomplish this.

This may not improve much practicality, mainly for good luck, to show love for this item, and to show off by the way.

This is one of the sources of income for many sects, but Gallo has not yet received such a business.

The old bishop did not object to this, but suggested to him:

"the shell of this golem is black gold, and this metal has high magic resistance , divine technique will be greatly diminished. You can just add one divine technique,."

"how can this work? This is a few hundred gold things! I've never used anything so expensive. "

Gallo said and knot a handprint, first gave golem a few sheltered divine technique: speed up.

When he came back with golem last night, he found that the golem was slow and slow, so he decided to speed it up first.

A few faint rays of light linger around golem, slowly seeping into its shell, making it look slightly glowing, indicating a successful blessing.

Then he remembers that if the golem is active for too long, the ruby core will overheat and need to cool for a while before it can continue to move, which is troublesome.

So he use a few more divine technique to keep the target calm and sober: calm

Then, he felt that his painstaking paint, if stumbled and faded, would reveal the black below, which was very ugly, so he blessed several sheltered divine technique, to protect the fruits of his labor.

After dozens of words of divine technique were added back and forth, the golem began to emit that kind of holy and translucent light, which looked like some kind of religious relic.

" Is that all right? "

The old bishop was dumbfounded. It was black gold, which is known as magic-free metal.

What kind of student have he trained?

"what do you think? Does this look much more pleasing to the eye? "

Gallo asked.

"Uh. I'm glad you're happy. "

The old bishop replied with a rare compliment:

"your patronage divine technique is doing well."

Gallo smiled sheepishly:

"thanks to the care of the goddess."

Just as there are many kinds of magic, divine technique is roughly divided into four categories: healing, asylum, redemption, and punishment.

Healing is all kinds of healing, curing and detoxifying

Asylum is to give people or things a variety of benefits, commonly known as blessings.

As for redemption, it is the kind of repentance and persuasion that Gallo likes most at night.

And his divine technique against the mercenaries last night: condemnation is punishment.

Generally speaking, a priest with a normal style should major in healing and redemption, while refuge and punishment are the fields of paladins.

But Gallo is a little different. He doesn't know how to healing.

Finally, he gave the golem a name.

"I was going to buy a little donkey to pull the rickshaw, but now you've replaced the little donkey."

"then call you Amia!"

"I remember it seemed to be the name of a donkey, too."

Gallo said.

Golem has no reaction to the new name.

Gallo didn't expect anything, and it was clearly stated on the glove that the intelligence of this thing only kown simple commands.

He then left golem's paint dry in the backyard and went back to read.
