Volume 1 Chapter 15 (1/2)

Finally, it was the day before the [Evening Party] wherein Demon Lords would gather.

Almost a month had passed since Elder Dwarf joined us. During that time we had managed to: mass produce Golems, develop weapons, build up a reserve of metals from the mine, and level up. We had been extremely busy.

Elder Dwarf, Tenko, and I all went into the [Crimson Cavern] while the Golems and Skeletons were assigned to do nothing but mine.

I had a new [Creation] medal in hand. A month had already passed since the last one so I was able to make another.

However, due to the restriction on [Creation], there was nothing I could do with it unless I had an original medal made by another Demon Lord.

“What a sight.”

“As per Master’s instruction, I made as much as I could every day.”

Elder Dwarf, the silver-haired prepubescent beautiful girl, emotionlessly uttered so.

In the backside of the house reserved for us, the Golems were placed.

There were 30 of them.

Five F rank equivalent Stone Golems.

Ten E rank equivalent Iron Golems.

Ten D rank equivalent Silver Golems.

Five C rank equivalent Mithril Golems.

They were balanced like so. No matter how much Mithril we had to make powerful weapons, it wouldn’t be enough for making all the Golems so most of the Golems were instead made of iron and silver. Thus, the Iron Golems and Silver Golems.

“These will make things easier. I’ll equip these guys with heavy weapons and then they’ll be a great addition to my fighting force.”

The Golems had a large build, towering at over 3 meters, and it had the power to match. So, I equipped them with heavy weapons remodeled according to their specifications and done by the Elder Dwarf.

The Browling D2 .50 caliber (custom).

Over-all length: 1560 mm

Weight: 38.0 Kg.

Caliber: 12.7 mm x 99

Belt-fed system; 110 rounds each belt

Rate of fire: 650 rounds per minute

Effective range: 2,000 meters

A historical masterpiece of a machine gun. Eighty years had passed since it was designed and yet it still was one of the most excellent guns. It boasted overwhelming firepower and reliability.

It weighed close to 40 Kg. so I was only able to just barely make it after I had leveled up and increased my MP.

I was only able to do so recently so there was only five of the gun as of yet.

It used a caliber of 12.7 mm so that meant it used a caliber more than twice as large as that of an assault rifle.

The power it possessed was beyond words. Not only would a bullet go right through and leave a hole to any human shot with it, it would turn them into minced meat.

Just imagine these bullets of such ludicrous power was incessantly raining down upon the battlefield.

Originally, the gun was meant to be installed on a vehicle and never was it meant to be carried by foot soldiers. However, the Golems were able to easily make use of such a beast.

“Master. These Golems will be suited for a defensive battle but not an offensive one.”

However, that didn’t mean it didn’t have any weaknesses.

The Golems weren’t monsters created by me so I couldn’t store them away. In other words, the Golems would have to move until their destination point all by themselves. Their movement was by no means fast and that would therefore hinder their offensive. Their movement speed even loses to the Skeletons’.

However, in occasions where a location was to be defended, there was no monster more convenient than them.

“I know. These guys will be our strongest line of defense.”

I was thinking that basically, in my Dungeon, the ones in charge of attack would be the Undead corps while the Golem corps would be in charge of defense.

“Leaving all that aside… How’s Tenko’s weapon? Is it complete already?”

“It’s perfect, the best one I’ve made. I’ve finished it using: my analysis on the construction of the shotgun, the information Master gave me regarding the M&K MK417, my intuition as a dwarf, and Tenko’s demands. It’s my most superb prized item.”

The assault rifle I had prepared for Elder Dwarf was:

M&K MK417 MR762A1

Over-all length: 905 mm.

Weight: 4.25 Kg.

Magazine size: 20 rounds

Caliber: 7.62 mm x 51

Rate of fire: 600 rounds per minute

Effective range: 400 meters

It’s a version of the Skeletons’ MK416 but instead uses 7.62 mm bullets.

The Skeletons would have had a hard time firing anything that used more than the 5.56 mm bullets which had little recoil. Not to mention the need to put importance on the magazine size when it came to the Skeletons; the 5.56 mm bullets were smaller and therefore would allow more bullets on the magazine.

However, the MK 417 and its 7.62 mm bullets would not be an issue for Elder Dwarf, all things considered.
