Synthesis Wizard-Chapter 169

A moment later.

Su Nan completed the sealing magic array.

The multi-winged monster, with most of its power sealed, completely wilted, being carried on the shoulder of a golden golem. It had resigned itself to its fate and no longer resisted.

Putting the puppet girl and another golden golem into the magic cube, Su Nan then walked toward the group from the mysterious wooden hut, his gaze falling on the Hunter.

“The deal is done. Now it’s your turn to keep your promise.”

Upon hearing this, Rose, Traveler, and the others all perked up, turning their heads to look at the Hunter.

“No problem.”

The Hunter smiled and took out the Dawn Potion and the Starlight Tower key, handing them out to everyone.

The Starlight Tower key in hand, Rose and Traveler’s eyes flashed with joy.

They had taken such a huge risk, almost dying, all for the Starlight Tower key.

With this, they had a chance to become wizards.

Only Night Owl’s expression was a little complex.

There were only nine people in the mysterious wooden hut in total, and three had died during this operation. The trading scale that had been built up with great effort suddenly returned to what it had been ten years ago.

Now they would have to find new members again.

Having obtained what he wanted, Su Nan didn’t stay long. He bid farewell without any hesitation and left.

He still had a lot to do.

Watching Su Nan’s figure disappear at the entrance of the cave, the remaining five people looked at each other, their eyes filled with a mixture of emotions.

“I didn’t expect Su Nan to be hiding so deep.”

“It’s not that he was hiding, it’s more like we never saw through him.”

“Right, I feel like Su Nan might not even have used his full strength when he killed Sauro. He might have other tricks up his sleeve.”

“Shhh, stop thinking about it. I feel like a complete loser if I keep thinking about it.”

Traveler quickly ended the topic. Looking at the talisman stone in his hand, he asked the Hunter:

“Hunter, tell me the truth, how many Starlight Tower keys do you have in your possession?”

The Hunter shook his head: “Besides these given to you, there are only four left. Three were originally reserved for Wraith, Black Forest, and Red Heart. Evans only gave me this many.”

“Where’s Evans?” Staff asked.

“I’m not sure.” The Hunter spread his hands. “After I drew the attention of the Eternal Society, that guy disappeared without a trace. But I guess he must have quite a few Starlight Tower keys on him.”

Traveler sighed: “It used to be hard to get even a little clue about the Starlight Tower. Now, the Starlight Tower keys have suddenly appeared in a big pile. The Starlight Royal Family really kept it hidden well.”

Staff frowned: “I hope that Evans guy is hiding well. I don’t want to encounter a lot of wizard apprentices when we find the Starlight Tower in six years.”

Although based on current information analysis, the Starlight Tower inheritance is not competitive, the resources for each wizard lineage are limited. The more people enter, the fewer resources will be shared by each person.

If possible, they didn’t want too many wizard apprentices to enter the Starlight Tower.

If they couldn’t find Evans, they would even want to capture him, lock him up for six years, until they obtained the Starlight Tower inheritance.

“There are still six years.” Night Owl said in a deep voice. “Get yourselves ready, everyone.”

Back in Giant Eye City, Su Nan went straight through the spatial passage and returned to Dragon Forest.

A flash of light, and he appeared in the改造区 (remodeling area) on the thirteenth floor of Dragon Bone Tower.

The three remodeling areas in Dragon Bone Tower all had dedicated detention rooms for confining sub-dragons and dragon species.

Su Nan found a detention room of the highest level, threw the multi-winged monster in, instructed Butler No. 1 to watch over it, and then returned to the control center on the top floor.

After the battle, the next thing to do was the pleasant moment of counting the spoils of war.

This time, Su Nan obtained a total of seven spatial rings. Besides the four from the Eternal Society, he also got the spatial rings of Black Forest, Wraith, and Red Heart.

He got the first two from Sauro.

He quietly obtained the last one while everyone was desperately fleeing from the pursuit of the multi-winged monster.

He had avenged Red Heart by defeating the multi-winged monster, so it was reasonable to take his spatial ring as a reward.

Yes, it was very reasonable.

Su Nan first opened Red Heart’s spatial ring.

Gold and silver coins, gems, wizard tomes, potions, materials… These were all common items found in wizard apprentices’ spatial rings.

Su Nan had already accumulated rich experience in this area, and he efficiently sorted them by category.

He was slightly disappointed that there wasn’t anything particularly eye-catching inside.

The most valuable item might be a bottle of high-grade sub-dragon blood.

Unfortunately, that was the last thing Su Nan needed now.

The second ring he opened was Black Forest’s.

Compared to the previous one, there were more materials in this spatial ring.

There were a lot of rare magic plants.

But still, nothing particularly exciting.

It wasn’t until he opened Wraith’s spatial ring that Su Nan’s eyes lit up slightly.

Soul crystals!

A hundred soul crystals!

Although they were all miniature soul crystals, they were still very valuable.

“Now I have enough materials to synthesize a medium-sized soul crystal!”

It took about one hundred and twenty miniature soul crystals to synthesize a medium-sized soul crystal.

Su Nan had been saving up miniature soul crystals for a long time to synthesize the medium-sized soul crystals needed for the puppet.

But now he had enough materials to synthesize a second medium-sized soul crystal, and he just needed to accumulate enough mithril to refine a second puppet.

The puppet’s powerful combat strength had been demonstrated in today’s battle.

Without a doubt, this was the puppet that Su Nan would focus on researching and refining in the future, without any question.

Besides the soul crystals, what made Su Nan even more excited was that he found wizard tomes related to manufacturing soul crystals in the spatial ring.

Although it only recorded how to manufacture miniature and small soul crystals, it was enough.

With the synthesis magic cube in hand, as long as he had enough miniature soul crystals, he could even synthesize legendary soul crystals.

Overjoyed, Su Nan immediately flipped through the tomes.

Supported by his powerful spiritual power, it only took him less than half an hour to read the entire book, and he frowned slightly in thought.

“Only third-rank wizard apprentices can extract souls and condense soul crystals?”

If that’s the case, he could only manufacture soul crystals himself.

After all, there was no other third-rank wizard apprentice in the entire base besides him.

“There’s no shortage of souls. There are plenty of indigenous tribes and city-states around the Star Alliance. A small-scale war to wipe out a tribe could at least produce dozens of soul crystals.”

“If it’s a war to wipe out a city like Giant Eye City, it would be no problem to produce hundreds of soul crystals, and even a few small soul crystals.”

A legendary being could create a small soul crystal.

Although legendary creatures were rare in the vast underground world, they were certainly not uncommon.

“From now on, I won’t be short of soul crystals anymore.”

Su Nan’s brow relaxed, and he smiled.

With enough soul crystals, he wouldn’t have to consume so many stone golems to synthesize first-ring and second-ring legendary puppets. He could directly use steel golems to replace elite stone golems, and then use steel golems to synthesize elite steel golems, replacing the higher-level stone golems, greatly saving costs.

Putting down Wraith’s spatial ring, Su Nan happily opened the Eternal Society’s spatial rings.

There was nothing unexpected in Ember and Scorpion’s spatial rings.

Iro’s spatial ring was also similar, except for some wizard tomes about illusion that Su Nan was interested in.

He took out these tomes and placed them aside, ready to study them at some point. Finally, he turned to Sauro’s spatial ring.

“The founder of the Eternal Society, he should have a lot of good stuff.”

Su Nan opened the spatial ring, and a smile appeared on his face.

As expected, Sauro’s spatial ring could be called a treasure trove.

Just the gold coins were estimated to be seventy to eighty thousand, and there were over two thousand gems, including high-grade gems.

Just these two items alone were worth more than one hundred thousand gold coins!

Besides that, there were a lot of magic plants, rare metals, and other materials.

There were also numerous potions and soul crystals.

Su Nan even found a medium-sized soul crystal inside.

He didn’t know how many legendary knights Sauro had killed to collect enough souls to create this medium-sized soul crystal.

Or maybe they weren’t legendary knights, but the souls of wizard apprentices?

Su Nan smiled and accepted this medium-sized soul crystal.

After sorting through all the treasures and materials, he was left with over a hundred wizard tomes.

The wizard tomes that Sauro kept in his spatial ring were naturally not ordinary.

After a quick glance, Su Nan found many interesting tomes.

“The founder of the Eternal Society, he has quite a few rare knowledge inheritances in his hands.”

Su Nan smiled.

And when he picked up the last tome and saw the words on the cover, his eyes lit up.

《The Model Construction of Talent Crystal ‘Killing Intent’》

Talent crystal!

Su Nan hurriedly opened the book and read it carefully.

The three criteria for becoming a wizard – star ring, spiritual power, and most importantly, the talent crystal!

Once the number of constructed star rings and spiritual power meet the standards, wizard apprentices will have to face the most difficult hurdle in becoming a formal wizard – constructing a talent crystal model!

A talent crystal model is essentially a collection of runes.

Different types and quantities of runes will ultimately form different talent crystal models, resulting in different abilities.

Talent crystals can be said to be the most important combat means of a wizard, determining a wizard’s future growth potential and combat strength. Their importance is self-evident.

Talent crystals can be divided into upper, middle, and lower levels, from highest to lowest.

If you want to break through and become a true spirit wizard in the future, you must construct at least a middle-level talent crystal.

The chances of a lower-level talent crystal wizard becoming a true spirit wizard are extremely slim.

In fact, the chances of a middle-level talent crystal wizard becoming a true spirit wizard are less than one in a hundred.

Only upper-level talent crystal wizards are qualified to aspire to become true spirit wizards.

Sauro’s book described the model construction method for a lower-level talent crystal called ‘Killing Intent’.

A wizard who becomes a formal wizard through the ‘Killing Intent’ talent crystal can master the ability to release a killing intent field centered on themselves. All creatures within the killing intent field will continuously suffer from the killing intent impact. Creatures with weak wills can easily fall into madness.

Besides that, the wizard can also recover their physical strength and spiritual power slightly through killing, truly becoming stronger through battle!

It’s easy to imagine how terrifying a wizard with this ability would be on the battlefield against knights!

And this is just a lower-level talent crystal!

This shows how powerful formal wizards are!

“It’s a pity that it’s only a lower-level talent crystal model.”

Su Nan was slightly disappointed.

He was definitely going to become a true spirit wizard in the future, so he would definitely aim for an upper-level talent crystal.

Lower-level and middle-level talent crystals were not even considered.

There are three steps to constructing a talent crystal.

The first is to decide which talent crystal model to construct.

Talent crystal models are usually improved and deepened based on the original model.

The simplest and most common approach is to improve and deepen a certain spell model as the original model.

There is also the option of replicating and extracting the characteristics of a certain magic item as the original model.

The last one is to use bloodline abilities as the original model.

This option is usually chosen by wizard apprentices who are following the bloodline wizard path.

For example, the ‘Killing Intent’ talent crystal model is clearly improved from the original model based on the Carloss giant python bloodline ability.

Wizard apprentices who have fused the Carloss bloodline ability, if they become formal wizards with the ‘Killing Intent’ talent crystal, will have higher combat strength and potential than other wizards who have constructed a lower-level talent crystal because the talent crystal is very compatible with their bloodline.

In the early stages, bloodline wizards generally have more advantages than true spirit wizards.

In a way, this can be seen as sacrificing potential in exchange for advantages.

In short, when choosing a talent crystal model, wizard apprentices can choose talent crystal models left by their predecessors, or they can choose to research and create new models.

The advantage of the former is that it saves time and effort, and because the model has been proven feasible by predecessors, there is no need to worry about any accidents.

The disadvantage is that these models may not be entirely suitable for you.

Every talent crystal model, when it was created, was created based on the creator’s own conditions.

Even if the souls and bodies of two people are very similar, they cannot be perfectly matched in every detail, there must be differences.

This can lead to the later generations not being perfectly compatible with the talent crystal model, affecting their performance to some extent.

This may not be obvious in the early stages, but it will definitely be revealed when aspiring to higher realms in the future, becoming an obstacle to breakthroughs.

Therefore, all ambitious wizard apprentices, without exception, will choose to research and create their own models.

Even those wizard apprentices who follow the family bloodline inheritance path, who are forced to choose the talent crystal models left by their ancestors, will still adjust and modify them to make them more suitable for themselves, never accepting them uncritically.

And Su Nan, naturally, intended to choose the second path.

In fact, he had already decided on the original model for the talent crystal he would construct.

That was the magic emblem core, which he had always regarded as his trump card!
