Master Of None

'Narwhal style golem

The water elemental spirit that has control of the core of this golem is able to manipulate the water better through the runes carved on the metal parts. These metal parts are created with a specific magic that allows the water to not wear away at the metal.

The water elemental crystals and mana gems within the golem store the mana that the water elemental spirit gathers, it is then used to cause it to swim faster and strengthen the multi alloy horn of the narwhal golem. There is also the ability to create an ice shield around the body because of the close relation to water and the strength of the elemental spirit controlling the golem.

Dolphin style golem

This is a golem styled after one of the most common monsters in the ocean that travels in pods. The dolphin used to be a normal animal that slowly but surely used its mind to outsmart faster growing monsters. The more that it did so, the more that it learned sonar and enhanced its body. This led to it becoming a monster and leaving behind the prey mentality of normal animals in the world.

Normally, dolphins have a strong sense of scouting and hunting in pods. After mimicking these designs, the golems are able to travel faster in the water and use the water elemental spirits that control them to find hidden monsters. Their main focus is scouting to ensure safety of the ships that they were created to protect.

Advanced aquatic armor

This is the newest and highest aquatic armor made by the dwarven golem masters. They have modeled this armor after the merfolk race to better create an aquatic armor that will not sink and cause the operator to be trapped under the water. With this, the dwarves are able to explore and search for what they need under the water better.

This armor is weaker due to the removal of metals but has a much more fluid agility. They are able to float if need be and are also able to wield weapons other than minding tools. There are multiple mana gems added along with advanced water origin runes so that the aquatic armor can allow prolonged usage…'

The massive amount of information that Walker was gaining as he looked at the ship approaching was almost too much to handle. Just the golems alone had many uses. They would be the core of the aquatic travel as the ship moved.

Walker could tell that the ship had been made specifically with the golems in mind. They were able to latch on to the ship at specific points to gather mana while the water elemental spirit could rest. To be able to allow so many elemental spirits to rest within the golems was already proof that the dwarves had fully accepted the true spirit forging methods.

Furthermore, Walker could see a few of the water elves on the ship. They were clearly perfectly in harmony with the dwarves that had created these things. Many years ago, the dwarves and elves did not get along. They argued over the nature that dwarves could destroy and the differences in values between them. But now, they worked together to create a much better future.

The dolphin golems were something surprising. Everyone knew that some monsters descended from ancient monsters. They would change over time just like people. But others were animals like the average rabbit compared to a horned rabbit. The average rabbit was something that had never grown but bred fast enough to survive the dangers of the world. Hence why rats were always around even though they were not necessarily monsters. But there was always the chance they would change over time to become a monster that fits in to the world.

The dolphins were like this. They had enhanced their minds and learned sonar, an aquatic form of communication using sound. Basing the golems after them was brilliant. This made them the ideal scouts for the entire group of ships. It also allowed them to be able to bond with the water elemental spirits better that were already close to the water.

The narwhal golems would be the fighting forces. They could create temporary ice shields with the assistance of the water elemental spirits and runes. This also applied to their ability to speed through the water and attack with the horns on their heads. Scouts and attackers that doubled as defenders and map makers. An ideal combination.

The aquatic armor was an entirely different story. To call it a controlled golem would be simpler. The dwarves could wear the armor and control it which made it part golem and also part armor. But where it differentiated was the fact that it had been taken from the armor they used in underwater mines.

Now the armor was made for speed and flexibility instead of hard mining and latching on to rocks. It was also made so that the dwarves controlling it could fight while using it. This would be an added layer of protection that brought the dwarves and merfolk closer while also defending ships. No longer was the threat of a dwarf sinking away to the deep of the ocean without the chance of swimming back up.

"That's pretty amazing." Even Leon was surprised to see it all coming together. The ship they saw was more advanced because it was specifically altered to be the main hub for all the golems. This made it less like the other ships with multiple areas for working.

Instead of having an alchemy lab at all, it had golem workshops that took up most of the under deck floors. The forge was also much more advanced with better tools than the basic repair forges on the other ships. Furthermore, there were even more mana gems and water elemental crystals there for the water elemental spirits to recharge their elemental mana after being in control of a golem. From what Walker could see, it went deeper than that.

'Water golem ship

The use of true spirit forging has truly shown brilliance in this creation. Due to the extreme effort of five master golem smiths and three additional master blacksmiths using the true spirit forging techniques, fifteen water elemental spirits can dwell within this ship. They had control over the guidance of the ship and the massive amount of water elemental mana within. Over the course of this creation, eighty five of those working on it fell to exhaustion or injuries before the ship was finished.

This has caused the ship to become a golem itself that specializes in water elemental mana. It is able to house and assist other water elemental spirits in control of their golems while also being able to use water as basic defense and attacks. This ship is one of a kind in the world and has earned certain forge masters and master golem creators the title, water golem creator. They will always have better skills and luck when creating water related golems.'

There was more to the all around appraisal but Walker was too blown away. He had subconsciously said all of that out loud shocking everyone around him. They were all in awe of the major accomplishment that had taken so many of the dwarves' best. But what was even more evident was the speed it had come together. The dwarves had all mobilized along with any other person able to forge and create ships. They had worked tirelessly to create the shops but those that had worked on this ship had gone further.

'Since the dwarves and focused entirely on golems, then it made sense that a ship would be created to mimic that desire. However, they had gone so far beyond that they had earned a title and created something for the first time ever!

"Amazing is right. I think that is what would be called the crown jewel of a navy." The term navy had not been used much, there were no real forces along the coasts that could be called a navy, and those that could went by merchant groups. Now, with five ships and one that specialized in golem battle and creation, it was possible to say that this would be the head of a navy.

"The other ships aren't like this, are they?" Walker had the sudden realization that this put them at just three ships and not five. How could there be another ship as intricate and advanced as the one that they were all looking at? It would be ridiculous to think that another could even rival what they saw before them.

"We will have to ask. That looks like the king of the surface. I expected that the king of the deep would change his mind and take over the ship. But I think the king of the surface changed his mind and decided to follow the golems he controlled and led." Gil could spot the familiar face and figured out the reasons why easily.
