I have to admit, Rose felt somewhat moved at that moment.

She had never considered this possibility before, but now that Carolina mentioned it, she realized it was actually a pretty good proposal.

The richness of resources controlled by the Star Alliance is universally acknowledged. Even the mere tip of the iceberg that outsiders can see is already astonishing and enviable.

If she could get the support of the Star Alliance’s resources, it would undoubtedly be beneficial to her journey as a Wizard.

As for whether she’d be deceived by the Star Alliance, that hardly seemed an issue.

From what she knew, the Star Alliance had fostered many Wizard Apprentices and wasn’t harsh towards them, adhering strictly to the principle of equivalent exchange.

The Star Alliance’s reputation in this regard is quite good.

Joining the Star Alliance is essentially joining a resource platform.

It’s fundamentally similar to the Dense Forest Cabin, only with closer ties and certain obligations to bear.

For instance, safeguarding the interests of the Star Alliance.

For her, this was not unacceptable.

"...Is this your own idea, or Sunan’s intention?"

After pondering for a while, Rose finally spoke slowly.

Seeing Rose’s interest, Carolina smiled and said, "Your master has always had this in mind."

This wasn’t a lie either.

Carolina knew her master had always wanted to find a manager for the base to assist in handling its numerous affairs.

Rose was undoubtedly a good choice.

Born nobly, possibly exposed to politics before, and being a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice, she would surely excel at handling base affairs.

As for her royal status in the Thorn Flower Duchy, that mattered little.

After years in the Star Alliance, Carolina deeply understood one truth.

When you receive enough benefits from an organization, you’ll gradually become assimilated, naturally safeguarding its interests.

Wizard Apprentices and royal nobles cooperate more for resource acquisition.

As long as the benefits Rose received from the Star Alliance exceeded those from the royal family of Thorn Flower Duchy, her internal scales would naturally tilt towards the Star Alliance.

As for blood ties... Haha, Rose probably had distant relations removed by several generations from the current royal family of Thorn Flower Duchy.

Without benefits to bind them, Rose wouldn’t bother with the affairs of Thorn Flower Duchy.

This is the mindset of many Wizard Apprentices who have lived for centuries.

As a subordinate, Carolina felt obliged to alleviate her master’s burdens.

If she could persuade Rose, she could resolve a nuisance for her master.

After hesitating for a long time, Rose finally said, "I’ll consider it, but let’s finish dealing with matters at the Starry Tower first."

Carolina smiled, wisely refraining from saying more, and turned to continue leading the way.

After arranging things with Rose, Carolina turned to find Sunan to report.

Upon hearing the report, Sunan pondered briefly.

He had indeed considered inviting those from the Dense Forest Cabin to join the Star Alliance, but due to potential unforeseen changes after implementation, he had temporarily put it aside.

Once he was promoted to Official Wizard, attaining an overwhelming power, he would reduce many inconveniences by implementing this plan.

Moreover, Sunan had other ideas lurking.

By then, the base would be due for a deeper reform.

"Let’s put this matter on hold for now."

Sunan waved his hand, then added:

"Aside from several significant venues, let Rose visit wherever she pleases with your personal company."

Though he didn’t plan to invite Rose now, letting her learn more about the Star Alliance and deepening her impression was not a bad idea.

Carolina understood, respectfully complying.

"Furthermore, halt the Star Alliance’s expansion actions temporarily, delegating a Golem Legion to stand by in the Dragon Forest."

"Withdraw the supporting Golem Legion from the Starry Duchy, replenish it, and have them stand by in the Dragon Forest together."

Anticipating the soon venture into the Starry Tower, Sunan decided preparation was necessary.

At the very least, placing two Golem Legions in the cube space was handy.

Taking this opportunity, the Star Alliance could pause for a breath, digesting past battle outcomes.

Concerning the surface world, the Starry Alliance held the advantage in war firmly. Even pulling the Golem Legions now wouldn’t significantly affect the war dynamics.

After arranging everything, Sunan continued to invest in constructing the Talent Crystal Model.

The following time was peaceful, without the troublesome visits Rose feared.

The monotonous yet fulfilling routine of practice lasted until mid-Frostfall Month (November).

Sunan was constructing the Talent Crystal Model in the Meditation Room, when suddenly, feeling something, he abruptly opened his eyes.

With a thought, the key to Starry Tower appeared in his palm.

The ordinary Talisman stone that once looked like a regular rock now emitted a faint blue halo across its surface patterns.

Sunan clenched his fist, grasping the Talisman stone firmly, his mind suddenly portrayed a blurry image. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The picture depicted a towering giant tower, five to six hundred meters high, floating in the sky.

The predominantly dark blue tower against the blue-white sky appeared exceptionally magnificent, exuding a typical Gothic style, decorated with intricate carvings on flying buttresses and parapets, featuring eye-catching spires and pointed arches in abundance, with a multicolored cloud of elements and energy particles swirling atop, making the entire tower seem poised to ascend and transcend toward the heavens.

The image lasted only a few seconds, then faded from Sunan’s mind.

He instantly understood that the tower in the image was the legendary Starry Tower!

"Finally arrived!"

Sunan exhaled deeply.

Since discovering leads to Starry Tower, he had anticipated this wizard inheritance emergence.

The goal had finally revealed!

Whether he could construct the super Talent Crystal Model depended on the Starry Tower!

Rising from the Meditation Room, Sunan returned straight to Ghost Lake City.

Upon emerging from the top level of the stone pillar, he saw Rose already hovering in the air waiting.

"The Starry Tower has appeared!" Rose said, with a tone concealing undeniable excitement.

Sunan nodded, saying only ’follow me’ before turning to leave.

Rose felt puzzled but followed along.

The two quickly arrived at the spatial passage in Ghost Lake City.

Seeing the peculiar spatial door, Rose couldn’t help but display a look of amazement.

Upon witnessing Sunan’s form enter continuously, she hesitated before finally stepping inside.

After a flash, their sight was filled with vast expanses of green.

Gazing at the grand and majestic forest before her, Rose couldn’t help but show a shocked expression.

When she beheld the ancient and grandiose Dragon Remains Tower, she couldn’t resist gasping.

Dragon Bone!

The aura was undoubtedly that of genuine Dragon Race bones!

"Where is this place?" Rose couldn’t help but ask.

"Dragon Forest, Eco-Park."

Sunan replied without turning back, directing himself toward another spatial passage.

Rose paused in disbelief on her face.

She certainly knew what an Eco-Park was.

Praised as a dimensional space for cultivation and breeding large facilities.

Only, she didn’t expect Sunan to possess an Eco-Park under his control.

Moreover, it seemed well-developed, flourishing.

How many secrets did this man harbor unknown to her?

Watching Sunan’s back, Rose couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, feeling even more tempted to join the Star Alliance.

Collecting her thoughts, she hurriedly followed Sunan.

Once more, they traversed the spatial passage, returning to the surface world near Flash City at Base No. 1.

As expected, Kei was already waiting at Base No. 1.

Detecting the key’s anomaly, he promptly came to the base awaiting Sunan.

Without much interaction, after briefly chatting, the three soared swiftly toward the direction sensed by the key.
