Synthesis Wizard-Chapter 155

The brightly lit living room.

Su Nan and the Traveler sat facing each other, exchanging pleasantries.

“How was your rest these past three days, Your Excellency?”

“Very good,” the Traveler laughed. “I haven’t stayed in such a comfortable room in the Underworld for a long time. In the past, for convenience, I’ve been living in caves, and occasionally when entering a city-state, I could only stay in simple taverns.”

Su Nan’s interest was piqued. “What city-state was it?”

“An Dark Elf city-state, about a thousand kilometers from here.”

“Can you tell me more about it?”

“Of course.” The Traveler readily agreed.

Over the past three days living in Misty Lake City, he had explored the entire city-state. Although he hadn’t been able to visit the Base 2 he was most interested in, he had a general understanding of the forces in Misty Lake City.

The current Misty Lake City had military strength far exceeding that of eight years ago.

It could be said that Misty Lake City alone, with its military strength, could easily destroy some small countries on the surface.

And Su Nan’s forces weren’t limited to just Misty Lake City. There were also Matu and Olsen.

Although he hadn’t visited them in person, based on the information he had gathered through roundabout inquiries these past few days, the military strength of these two city-states was probably not much weaker than Misty Lake City.

The three city-states merged together to form the Star Alliance.

From this name alone, it was clear that Su Nan’s ambitions were not limited to just three city-states.

The more he learned, the more mysterious Su Nan seemed to the Traveler.

He even vaguely felt that what he had learned so far was just the tip of the iceberg of Su Nan’s forces and resources!

If anyone on the continent could become a full-fledged Wizard, the Traveler thought Su Nan was definitely one of the most likely candidates.

Faced with such a person with immense potential, even someone as casual as him couldn’t help but think of making friends and building good relations.

If some intelligence could win Su Nan’s favor, it would undoubtedly be worth it.

“That Dark Elf city-state is called Spider City, inhabited by twelve Dark Elf families. The matriarchs of all the families form the Supreme Council, ruling the entire city-state.”

“There are over six thousand Dark Elves in Spider City alone, in addition to no fewer than 50,000 dependent races and countless slaves. In terms of both foundation and strength, it can steadily rank among the top three in the entire Southeast Domain.”

Spider City?

Su Nan’s mind immediately conjured up related memories.

There were countless races in the Underworld.

In terms of population alone, the Dark Elves wouldn’t even rank in the top thousand.

But in terms of fighting strength, the Dark Elves could definitely rank among the top three.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Dark Elves loved infighting and wasted most of their energy on internal power struggles, they would probably have unified the entire Southeast Domain long ago.

Su Nan vaguely remembered that in his previous life, during the Elemental Rejuvenation, the Dark Elves seemed to have already unified the entire Southeast Domain of the Underworld.

How did they achieve internal unity?

Speaking of which, the Star Alliance and Spider City were only less than two thousand kilometers apart. Whether the Star Alliance expanded outwards or Spider City expanded its forces, they seemed destined to collide sooner or later.

It seems I need to take precautions.

His thoughts racing, Su Nan remained calm on the surface, patiently listening to the Traveler’s account, occasionally asking a few questions.

It had to be admitted that the Traveler’s understanding of the distribution of forces in the Underworld was far more detailed than the few scraps of knowledge in his mind.

As he listened to the Traveler’s description, Su Nan quickly sketched out a detailed map of the distribution of forces within a thousand-kilometer radius of the Star Alliance in his mind.

With this map of forces, the Star Alliance’s future expansion would undoubtedly be much smoother.

“Do you know where there is a silver mine?”

After the Traveler finished speaking, Su Nan suddenly asked.

The Traveler thought carefully for a moment and hesitated. “There is one, but it already belongs to someone else.”

“It’s okay,” Su Nan didn’t mind. “Where is it?”

“It’s near Giant Eye City. It’s a medium-sized silver mine, belonging to Giant Eye City.”

Su Nan was immediately excited.

Even if only half of the medium-sized silver mine was mined, it would be enough to make up for the missing resources needed to refine the secret puppet.

I must get this silver mine!

The Giant Eye City mentioned by the Traveler was located 300 kilometers north of the Star Alliance, just a bit further than the Eye Demon tribe he had previously discovered.

Su Nan speculated that those Eye Demon tribes were likely the losers of a power struggle in Giant Eye City, banished to the wilderness.

The ruler of Giant Eye City was a Nest Mother Eye.

It sounded like a female, but in reality, like ordinary Eye Demon races, it had no concept of gender.

This name actually came from its special ability to control other Eye Demons.

Through this ability, the Nest Mother Eye could often subdue a large number of Eye Demons to serve it, which was also the origin of the Eye Demon city-state.

The Nest Mother Eye itself was not particularly strong, only slightly stronger than an ordinary Eye Demon, at most a first-ring legendary level.

What was tricky was the Eye Demon horde under its command.

They came in hundreds or even thousands, and there were many legendary Eye Demon mutants among them.

Judging solely from the Traveler’s words, Giant Eye City was even stronger than the previous Misty Lake City.

But Su Nan didn’t care too much.

Sending a gold magic puppet with a magic puppet legion would be enough to easily wipe out Giant Eye City.

Deciding to hand this matter over to the Red Widow, Su Nan then raised another topic.

“Speaking of which, why don’t you establish your own forces?”

“With your strength, it shouldn’t be too difficult to take over a city-state, right?”

The Traveler shook his head with a smile. “Forget it, I’m not cut out for that, and I don’t like spending too much energy on developing forces. Compared to that, I prefer exploring and adventuring, seeing more scenery. There are still many beautiful sights on this continent that I’ve never seen before.”

“But without establishing your own forces, it’s difficult to gather resources.”

“I’m not a lone wolf either.” The Traveler shrugged. “I still collaborate with a few powerful nobles, which is enough.”

After a pause, he looked wistful, sighed, and said:

“Besides, what good is gathering more resources?”

“The situation on Starlight Continent now, if you want to advance to Wizard, it’s not something that can be solved by just having more resources.”

“To break this deadlock, you have to find the legendary three Wizard inheritances. I’ve been searching for them all these years.”

As he spoke, the Traveler’s eyes flickered slightly.

Su Nan noticed this and his heart skipped a beat. He stared intently at the Traveler.

“You’ve found a clue?”

The Traveler hesitated for a moment before finally nodding in confirmation.

“Yes.”

“Which Wizard inheritance is it?”

“The Black Forest.”

Su Nan’s eyes lit up, and he smiled slightly. “How about this, I won’t take advantage of you. You tell me the clue to the Black Forest, and I’ll tell you the clue to the Starsea Tower. How does that sound?”

“Deal!” The Traveler agreed without hesitation.

Su Nan was startled, then quickly realized.

When Magic Hand and Blood Mouth had exchanged information, they had mentioned the Starsea Tower key. It seems that the Traveler had heard it then and took note. Now mentioning the Black Forest clue was a way to wait for him here.

This guy is actually quite cunning.

Meeting Su Nan’s meaningful gaze, the Traveler smiled awkwardly, laughed it off, and said:

“I can make a sworn contract to guarantee that the information I give you is 100% true!”

Su Nan naturally wouldn’t refuse.

After making the sworn contract, the two began exchanging information.

“I got the Black Forest clue in Spider City.”

The sourc𝗲 of this content is frёeωebɳovel.com.

“The Filial Family, one of the twelve families in Spider City. Their third-generation matriarch is said to have entered a strange forest and gained powerful strength from it, which allowed her to defeat all her competitors and inherit the position of matriarch.”

“I infiltrated the Filial Family and checked their records. They do indeed record this matter, but no more detailed information can be found.”

“In my estimation, if this is true, such important information would definitely only be passed down orally. Perhaps only the successive matriarchs of the Filial Family know.”

The Filial Family?

Su Nan’s eyes flashed with thought.

No matter what, now that there was a clue, he had to investigate.

It seems that contact with Spider City is inevitable.

Even if they don’t come to my doorstep, I will go to them.

Coming back to his senses, Su Nan also truthfully informed the Traveler about the Starsea Tower clue.

“The Mysterious Wooden Hut recently added a new member, called the Hunter. Have you heard of him?”

The Traveler shook his head. He hadn’t seen the Night Owl in almost two years, so he naturally had no idea about the Mysterious Wooden Hut’s recent activities.

“At a gathering some time ago, the Hunter sold a Starsea Tower key. With the key, one can locate the Starsea Tower when it appears and enter it. I guess the Hunter probably has more keys. You might be able to start from this aspect.”

The Traveler’s heart sank at the news.

He wished he had attended the gathering. If he had known that a rare item like the Starsea Tower key would appear, he would have gone.

Unfortunately, he had been chased by Magic Hand and was too busy to attend the gathering.

“The Hunter? It seems I need to find a way to contact him privately,” the Traveler thought to himself.

At this moment, Su Nan suddenly threw something at him, which the Traveler subconsciously caught. He looked down and saw a space ring.

“This is…” The Traveler looked at Su Nan with a questioning gaze.

“A token of gratitude. You’ve given me so much information, I have to give you some gifts,” Su Nan said with a smile.

The Traveler opened the space ring and found one hundred magic stones lying inside. He was immediately shocked.

This reward is too generous!

However, the temptation of magic stones was too great. The Traveler couldn’t bear to give it up. He hesitated for a moment before finally accepting it.

“Thank you.” He said seriously.

Su Nan waved his hand, indicating that he was welcome.

To be honest, apart from the Black Forest clue, the Traveler had given him information about the distribution of forces, which was definitely worth more than one hundred magic stones.

Moreover, doing this could also leave the Traveler with the impression that he was generous.

If he had any other information in the future, the Traveler would be happy to trade it with him.

The next day after exchanging information, the Traveler bid farewell and left.

Su Nan didn’t try to stop him. After he left, Su Nan threw himself into his busy schedule.

Besides his daily cultivation, he devoted most of his energy to two tasks.

One was to increase the bloodline concentration of the Stealthy Dragon.

The other was to repair the Elemental Pool.

The cost of repairing the Elemental Pool was not high, the materials consumed amounted to only about ten thousand gold coins, the key was the technical problem.

Without the spiritual power of a formal Wizard, the difficulty of repairing many parts suddenly increased significantly.

Drawing a large number of precise runes, if one failed, one had to start over. Su Nan often had to fail dozens or even hundreds of times before succeeding, giving him a sense of déjà vu of his first attempt at making potions.

After more than three months, Su Nan finally completed the repair of the Elemental Pool.

Dragon Forest, top floor of Dragon Bone Tower.

Looking at the square pool in front of him, which had been completely repaired, Su Nan let out a long sigh and smiled with genuine joy.

The completion of the Elemental Pool repair was of great significance.

It marked a new stage in the development of his forces.

“The next step is activation.”

Su Nan took out the gems he had prepared in advance from his space ring, carved them into simple eight-sided rhombuses, and embedded them into the magic formation, making them appear as one.

Buzz!

The entire Elemental Pool suddenly trembled violently, and cracks suddenly appeared in the surrounding space.

The scenery behind these cracks was bizarre and varied: a sea like an abyss, an endless sky, a fiery sea that could burn the heavens, and a thick and solid crust, among other things.

They were all elemental planes!

After a strange intermingling of energy, streams of deep blue water flowed into the Elemental Pool.

This was not real water, but condensed elemental energy in liquid form, which would appear in the Elemental Pool in the form of water’s surface.

A gentle form of energy manifestation!

With the successful establishment of the Elemental Pool, an abundant and active energy enveloped the entire Dragon Bone Tower.

“Success!”

Su Nan took a deep breath, feeling the elementally charged air, his expression quite happy.

The Elemental Pool would continuously radiate energy outwards.

Within the range of this energy, the spiritual power of Wizards (Apprentices) would recover significantly faster, and meditation efficiency would also slightly improve. It could even delay aging to a certain extent and increase a person’s lifespan.

In other words, those who lived in Dragon Bone Tower for a long time would receive the benefits of increased longevity, rapid recovery, and improved meditation efficiency.

Moreover, the larger the Elemental Pool, the better the effect.

Su Nan estimated that the miniature Elemental Pool should be able to increase spiritual power recovery speed by 20% and meditation efficiency by 5%.

Long-term residents could also gain an additional 5 to 10 years of lifespan.

Watching the water level slowly rise in the Elemental Pool, Su Nan’s mood became even more cheerful.

The Elemental Pool used the most primitive elemental channel mechanism, using elemental surges to generate magic that poured back into the Elemental Pool. The operating efficiency was not high, but it was good because it didn’t have to worry about depletion. As long as the Elemental Pool was not damaged and regularly maintained, it could be used for thousands of years.

With the Elemental Pool providing energy, the ecological environment within Dragon Forest could gradually be restored, and there would be no need to worry about insufficient energy.

The only pity was that the energy provided by the Elemental Pool was stable but meager, not enough to do too many things.

Su Nan steadied himself and opened the three-dimensional model of Dragon Forest.

The spatial barrier of Dragon Forest had already been repaired, leaving only Dragon Bone Tower and Zone 2 unrepaired.

The areas needing repair in Dragon Bone Tower were mainly the cultivation tanks and various experimental facilities in the transformation zone, the magic crystal forging furnace in the workshop zone, the targets in the cultivation zone, and the overall magic energy transmission pipeline, among other things.

Years of neglect had caused various problems in these facilities, which needed to be repaired one by one.

Fortunately, Dragon Bone Tower had a complete self-repair function, plus the assistance of Butler 1, as long as there was enough energy, it wouldn’t take too much time to repair.

“1, start repairing Dragon Bone Tower,” Su Nan gave the order.

“Starting Dragon Bone Tower repair, estimated time: 18 days, 15 hours, 25 minutes, and 16 seconds.”

Su Nan nodded silently.

Once the repairs in Dragon Bone Tower were complete, he could start moving the base.

As for Zone 2, he would wait until the energy was fully restored before slowly repairing it.

Anyway, he wouldn’t be able to find a dragon to breed for a while.

Without dragons in Zone 2, even if it was fully restored, it could only be used as a super-large magic plant garden.
