Synthesis Wizard-Chapter 170: Synthetic Idea, An Unprecedented Model
Chapter 170: Synthetic Idea, An Unprecedented Model
The Magic Emblem Core is incredibly powerful, both offensively and defensively. It’s undoubtedly the best choice as the original model for the Talent Crystal.
At least, it’s the best option among the resources currently available to Su Nan.
In fact, as early as when he fused the first Magic Emblem Core, Su Nan already had a vague plan.
Only recently, has this thought gradually become clear.
The Magic Emblem Core is originally constructed from countless runes, and similar to the Talent Crystal model, its essence is also a collection of runes. It’s not difficult to modify it into a Talent Crystal model.
More importantly, the Magic Emblem Core can be infinitely upgraded and strengthened.
As long as he is willing to spend time, Su Nan can completely use the Magic Emblem Core as a sample to create a higher-level Talent Crystal model.
For Su Nan, who is currently in the resource-scarce Starlight Continent, a place where even official Wizards cannot be easily reached, this is undoubtedly the best outcome.
He estimates that on the current Starlight Continent, only the three major Wizard inheritances might have the construction methods for medium to high-level Talent Crystal models.
However, the Starlight Tower will not open for another six years, and he doesn’t plan to wait until then.
Moreover, if there are no higher-level Talent Crystal models in the Starlight Tower, wouldn’t he have wasted years of time?
In conclusion, choosing the Magic Emblem Core as the original model is clearly the best choice.
The second step in constructing a Talent Crystal is to construct the model.
Generally speaking, the higher the level of the Talent Crystal model, the more runes it contains, and the construction difficulty increases exponentially.
Even the lowest-level, lower-level Talent Crystal model contains between 800,000 to 1 million runes, far exceeding the Magic Emblem Core.
With such an astonishing number of runes, the construction time naturally takes decades.
The medium and higher-level Talent Crystal models are even more difficult.
In fact, many Wizard Apprentices, after reaching the Star Ring and spiritual power requirements, get stuck at this stage. They never manage to construct a complete Talent Crystal model until their death.
Of course, there are ways to shorten the time it takes to construct a Talent Crystal model.
The Wizard world has many potions that accelerate the construction of Talent Crystal models.
Basically, any potion that can improve meditation efficiency can have an effect in this regard.
“I have the Divine Blood Amber and the Transcendent Potion, so the speed of constructing the Talent Crystal model should be faster than usual. However, it’s still unlikely to construct a Talent Crystal model before the Starlight Tower appears.”
After all, it’s a higher-level Talent Crystal. The difficulty of construction is several times higher than that of a lower-level one.
It would be considered fast if it could be completed within ten years.
Unless there are other potions to increase construction speed.
If it were a lower-level Talent Crystal model, it could be completed before the Starlight Tower appears.
“Speaking of which, I wonder if the Talent Crystal model can be synthesized?”
Su Nan’s eyes suddenly lit up with inspiration.
The Magic Cube can only synthesize physical objects, while the Talent Crystal model and the Magic Emblem Core are both constructed from runes. They lack rare metals as a carrier, so he is not sure if they count as physical objects.
“I can try it.”
After thinking for a while, Su Nan quickly made up his mind.
It’s impossible to construct a higher-level Talent Crystal model before the Starlight Tower opens. He might as well use the Magic Emblem Core as the original model to construct a lower-level Talent Crystal model and see if it can be synthesized.
If it fails, at most he’ll waste a few years, which can be considered as accumulating experience for constructing a higher-level Talent Crystal model.
But if it succeeds, then it’s a huge gain.
Perhaps he can synthesize a Talent Crystal that is more advanced than the higher-level model, an unprecedented Talent Crystal!
The benefits to his future Wizard path are self-evident!
“Worth a try!”
Su Nan made up his mind.
The third step in constructing a Talent Crystal model is to crystallize the model.
Wizard Apprentices need to inject their spiritual power into the constructed model, filling it to transform it into a crystalline body.
This process also takes a very long time, often measured in years.
After all, the Wizard Apprentice’s spiritual power is a drop in the bucket compared to the spiritual power required for the model’s crystallization.
The entire process is a repetition of injecting and recovering spiritual power.
The only way to shorten this process is to use special items to speed up the recovery of spiritual power, reducing the time spent.
Su Nan has already made arrangements for this.
He currently has a very suitable item in his possession – the Golden Apple!
After eating the Golden Apple, one can obtain the magical effect of infinite vitality. No matter how much stamina and spiritual power is consumed, they can instantly recover to their peak state, lasting for about an hour.
This one hour should be enough for him to fill the higher-level Talent Crystal model.
“Next year’s Revival Moon, I should be able to build the seventeenth Star Ring. Afterwards, I will construct the eighteenth Star Ring, raising my spiritual power to 60 points, and I can begin constructing the Talent Crystal model.”
“Before that, I’ll get the model done first.”
Su Nan let out a long breath. He has a lot on his plate.
Manufacturing Soul Crystals, refining Steel Golems, and synthesizing new Second-Rank Legendary Puppets.
Extracting the blood of the Multi-Winged Monster to research bloodline markings, and extracting divine energy.
Creating the Talent Crystal model.
Every task requires a significant amount of time.
Moreover, he cannot neglect his training.
Su Nan has already foreseen the upcoming busy scene.
“The formation of the third small Golem Legion also needs to be put on the agenda.”
Su Nan glanced at the several spatial rings in front of him.
The ambush on the Eternal Society, although encountering several unexpected events, was still a success, and the harvest was extremely rich.
Not to mention the Multi-Winged Monster, just these seven spatial rings alone, with their combined value, definitely exceed 500,000 gold coins.
After all, the original owners were all top students among the Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices, each with a considerable fortune.

With this money, the funding gap for the formation of the third small Golem Legion was instantly reduced.
Leaving the control center, Su Nan returned to his study and summoned Carolina and Black Widow.
“The Rune Knights stationed in Giant Eye City can withdraw.”
After casually giving an order, Su Nan continued:
“From now on, if you discover other tribes and city-states, report to me immediately.”
Carolina responded first, then asked with confusion: “Master, do you have other plans?”
Su Nan didn’t hide anything: “I need a lot of souls to manufacture Soul Crystals.”
Carolina and Black Widow understood.
Both of them were ruthless and bloodthirsty individuals. They had no problem with using creature souls to manufacture Soul Crystals.
If they knew how to extract souls, they would have already started doing it themselves.
Soul Crystals are precious.
After inquiring about the progress of the exploration, seeing that there were no issues, Su Nan waved his hand, dismissing the two women. Then, he left Dragon Forest and returned to Base 1, going straight to the palace.
When he saw Kei, the latter was practicing martial arts.
After becoming the king, Kei didn’t neglect his training. He still practiced breathing techniques and martial arts diligently every day.
With the support of abundant Dragon Blood Fruits, he had already broken through to become a Second-Rank Legendary Knight two months ago.
A Second-Rank Legendary Knight at only 31 years old was unique in the entire Starlight Continent.
However, at this level, if he wanted to quickly improve using Dragon Blood Fruits, he would have to consume sixth-grade Dragon Blood Fruits.
There weren’t even enough Dragon Blood Fruits harvested from the entire Botanical Garden in a single mature cycle to synthesize one.
The key is that one isn’t enough, and he would have to consume them long-term.
Considering this, Kei reduced the amount of Dragon Blood Fruit he consumed.
Otherwise, even if Su Nan could provide them, he wouldn’t have enough money to spend on them.
As long as he could be promoted to a Third-Rank Legendary Knight within six years, catching up with the opening of the Starlight Tower, it would be fine. There’s no need to rush.
“Here you go.”
When Kei finished his training and walked over, Su Nan directly threw a talisman stone and a potion at him.
Kei reached out and steadily caught them, examining them for a moment before a look of joy appeared on his face.
He had already heard Su Nan mention the ambush on the Eternal Society. Seeing this, he immediately understood that this stone was the key to the Starlight Tower and the potion was Dawn Potion.
For a long time, Kei finally recovered from his joy. It seemed like he remembered something and asked:
“What about the Eternal Society?”
“Starting today, the Eternal Society no longer exists on the Starlight Continent,” Su Nan said with a slight smile.
“That’s great!” Kei’s face beamed with joy.
The existence of the Eternal Society was a threat to the rule of any king, a destabilizing factor.
After all, no one knew when those maniacs would cause disaster.
The demise of the Eternal Society was undoubtedly good news for the entire Southeast Region of the continent.
“There’s something else I need to tell you.”
Su Nan relayed what Rose had told him earlier.
After listening, Kei pondered for a long time, his expression solemn as he said:
“This is a good suggestion.”
“The Azure Gold Empire has been increasingly active lately, almost openly threatening to attack the Principality. Although I’m not afraid, it’s still a bit difficult to fight the Empire alone. Even if I defeat them, other countries may take advantage of the situation. It’s better to find a few more allies and seize this opportunity to destroy the Empire once and for all!”
The Azure Gold Empire had been the overlord of the Southeast Region for hundreds of years, with deep roots. Even with the Black Rock Knights and the Golem Legion, the Starry Principality didn’t dare to guarantee victory against the Empire.
It’s good to have other countries to share the pressure.
Moreover, even if they conquered the Azure Gold Empire, the Starry Principality’s current size would make it difficult to swallow it whole. It’s better to give up some benefits in exchange for reduced casualties, which is a good deal.
Su Nan nodded, saying nothing.
He was just delivering a message. As for what to do next, it was up to Kei to decide.
As for the war on the surface, besides the deal with the Starry Principality, Su Nan didn’t intend to get involved.
At this stage, he was focusing more on improving his strength and expanding the Star Alliance. He didn’t have the time to pay attention to the war on the surface.
As long as he and the Star Alliance were there as a backing, the Starry Principality wouldn’t have to worry about defeat.
“If we go to war with the Azure Gold Empire, I hope to hire a Golem Legion from you.” Kei said.
Su Nan thought about it and agreed.
He planned to form the third small Golem Legion soon. It would be fine to detach one to support the surface, and it would also earn him some money to ease the financial pressure.
After that, Su Nan started to get busy.
After personally destroying several native tribes and a native city-state, he obtained a large amount of Soul Crystals. He then started mass-producing Steel Golems and synthesizing them.
It takes six Steel Golems to synthesize one Elite Steel Golem, costing approximately 9,000 gold coins.
With the constant magic and enchantment processing, the total cost was only around 12,000 gold coins, which is 10,000 gold coins less than the same level Elite Stone Golem!
In other words, if the entire small Golem Legion was replaced with Steel Golems and Elite Steel Golems, replacing the Elite Stone Golems and Higher Stone Golems, it could save approximately 300,000 gold coins.
And the cost of forming a small Golem Legion is only around 700,000 gold coins.
It can be said that it saves more than 40% of the cost!
The wealth Su Nan gained from the ambush on the Eternal Society alone was enough to form a small Golem Legion.
This is the biggest benefit of mastering the manufacturing technology of Soul Crystals!
Su Nan immediately decided to stop synthesizing Elite and Higher Stone Golems and replace them all with Steel Golems.
After that, Su Nan tried synthesizing Third-Rank Legendary Puppets using Steel Golems. However, after calculating the cost, it reached 78,000 gold coins, which was 20,000 gold coins more than Mithril Golems.
“As expected, synthesis is much more expensive than refining.”
Su Nan shook his head and decisively decided to stick with refining Mithril Golems.
After all, he could now manufacture Soul Crystals himself. All he needed was magical Mithril.
In the modification area, inside the laboratory.
Su Nan used the Master’s Hand to manipulate the blood, carefully drawing the final bloodline marking on the back of his hand.
With a flash of blood light, a new bloodline marking was formed.
Looking at the crimson mark on the back of his hand, Su Nan smiled with satisfaction.
This was the bloodline marking he created using the Multi-Winged Monster’s blood. Its effect was to control air currents, instantly unleashing countless air blades.
He remembered that the Multi-Winged Monster had used this move to instantly kill Red Heart, so its power must be considerable.
“Now I have another ace up my sleeve.”
Under the light, the backs of both Su Nan’s hands were marked with bloodline markings.
One was the Death Knell Mark, and the other was the Air Blade Mark.
In the previous operation, all five Death Knell Marks were consumed. Su Nan has only recently recreated two new Death Knell Marks.
The Air Blade Mark was newly researched, so he only had one.
To fill both backs of his hands with bloodline markings, he would have to accumulate a significant amount of blood over time.
“Although it will slow down the absorption of divine energy, I now have two divine beings, doubling the absorption speed. I will be able to catch up soon.”
Su Nan has not neglected the research on the Multi-Winged Monster’s divine energy during this time, and he has already extracted the divine energy from its body.
The only problem was that because it had once received worship from the Eye Demons, the Multi-Winged Monster’s divine energy was contaminated with a trace of faith power.
Although it was very faint, it was still considered contamination.
It had to be synthesized by the Magic Cube and the contamination removed before it could be absorbed.
With this extra step, it would take a long time to absorb.
But no matter what, with the added divine energy provided by the Multi-Winged Monster, his spiritual power should reach 60 points faster than he expected.
