Sunan reckoned his pace through the trial far surpassed others, theoretically, the others should still be in their trials.

Thinking back to the words of the auxiliary intelligent life earlier, Sunan had a faint suspicion.

Probably the auxiliary intelligent life expelled everyone else from the Star Tower, just to muster all available energy against him.

"No wonder the Star Tower suddenly faced intense external attacks; it’s likely the Truth Council and the Scepter are attacking the defense array."

Understanding this, Sunan’s face instantly broke into a smile.

In this way, the auxiliary intelligent life must expend most of its energy maintaining the defense array, leaving not much to deal with him temporarily.

Snapping out of his delight, Sunan continued his exploration upward.

While the Star Tower was mainly used for inheritance, it still had basic facilities.

Besides the trial hall, there were also residential areas, cultivation areas, experimental zones, planting zones, etc.

Yet the planting zone seemed unmaintained, likely due to a lack of staff, with no magic plants nurtured.

After searching around, Sunan only found a batch of well-preserved magic plant seeds.

The variety was fairly rich, about two to three hundred kinds, and the quantity was quite considerable.

Presumably, they were prepared for the ’slaves’ tied by an oath contract, facilitating their cultivation of magic plants. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Without reservation, Sunan collected them all.

Then he continued exploring, only to be delighted to find a library on the next level.

Rows of bookshelves were meticulously arranged, each brimming with books, an overwhelming sight to behold.

Sunan rejoiced, scanning through the titles from the first bookshelf, growing increasingly pleased as he went.

These books encompassed all foundational disciplines, from magic philosophy, world principles, and material studies to applied knowledge like magic plant cultivation, scroll transcription, and basic alchemy, all-encompassing.

They practically covered all essential knowledge from a Level 1 Wizard Apprentice to a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.

Including over thirty kinds of talent crystal models.

Yet most were lower-level talent crystal models, with only a scant three middle-level models.

One of them was the ’Bone’ Sunan spotted earlier.

Though there were just three middle-level talent crystal models, it was already a considerable amount.

Many Wizard Influences’ Level 3 Wizard Apprentices could at most access middle-level talent crystal models.

Upper-level talent crystal models were typically accessed solely by core members, so naturally, they wouldn’t appear here.

Besides, there were some books containing knowledge accessible only after attaining wizard status, including potions, magic, witchcraft artifacts, and high-level puppets, etc.

"Although the Dark Throne’s intentions weren’t pure, they spared no expense in fostering ’slaves’."

"Surely, slaves need enough power to create more benefits for them."

Sunan smiled faintly, stowing all the books into his space ring.

Initially fretting over how to acquire wizard-level knowledge post-promotion, the Star Tower’s collection conveniently resolved most of his worries.

Ensuring nothing was omitted, Sunan shattered the ceiling, directly entering the next level.

Here lay a spacious, bright hall, with tightly shut metal doors embedded in the surrounding walls.

Above different metal doors were labels like ’Metal,’ ’Magic Plant,’ ’Potion,’ ’Gemstone,’ etc.

Delighted, Sunan recognized he finally found his true target.

This level was indeed the warehouse district he sought!

Sunan immediately dashed toward the metal door inscribed with ’Potion,’ manipulated the demon pattern core, cut the door into fragments, and strode boldly inside.

What lay before him were densely packed metal racks, sealed off with transparent glass, storing bottles of various colored potions, totaling at least six hundred bottles at a glance.

Active Potion, Dragon Blood Potion, Tolerance Potion, Awakening Potion, Evil Illusion Potion...

Going over them one by one, Sunan discovered the lowest were all first-tier potions, and among them were those quite valuable in the first tier.

Even within second-tier potions, there were precious ones like Evil Illusion Potions, capable of enhancing spiritual power.

Reaching the innermost metal rack, Sunan finally found Construction Potions.

Utilizing his immense spiritual power, he quickly counted the potions, his mouth spontaneously curling upwards.

A total of eighty-six bottles!

This was a massive profit!

"So many Construction Potions, they should suffice for me to synthesize the super talent crystal model!"

Sunan was overjoyed.

Just the Construction Potions alone recouped all the efforts this time.

Coming back to his senses, Sunan immediately packed up all the potions, following up with a thorough exploration of other warehouse rooms.

’Metal,’ ’Magic Plant,’ and ’Gemstone’ warehouses were predictably stockpiled with materials corresponding to their names.

Yet in the ’Other’ labeled warehouse, Sunan found over ten Mental Beads.

After a round of raiding, Sunan’s space ring was nearly stuffed full.

Gazing at the diverse spoils within, Sunan couldn’t be more satisfied.

The total value of these items was immeasurable, many of which were beyond appraisal with gold coins.

For instance, Construction Potions, which were beyond description with even pricelessness!

This time he indisputably struck it big!

Returning to the central hall, Sunan flew upwards, shattering the ceiling to reach the next level.

His vision was again met with an expansive cosmic galaxy, beneath him was a white jade stone floor, a short distance away was an elemental pool, besides which floated a familiar meatball.

Recognizing this familiar scene, Sunan immediately understood.

This level was evidently the control center of the Star Tower.

[Wizard Apprentice, you have caused massive damage to the Star Tower. As per our rules, you will be listed in our organization’s wanted list!]

[Please evacuate the Star Tower immediately, surrender all plundered resources, and enter the detention area on your own accord, awaiting the organization’s personnel for trial!]

"Oh?" Sunan chuckled scornfully, casually asking, "When will they come over?"

[Specific time is unknown, depending on the recovery state of the planar barrier!]

Recovery state of the planar barrier?

Sunan raised an eyebrow curiously.

What was this situation about?

"What’s the planar barrier recovery about?"

But the auxiliary intelligent life didn’t answer his query, only repeating its previous words.

"Since you can’t provide valuable intelligence, there’s no use keeping you around."

Sunan raised his hand, striking the meatball with a flash of lightning, instantly turning it into charcoal.

Unlike the Tower Spirit which can exist in non-physical forms, this auxiliary intelligent life typically has a physical body.

Such as the crystal ball atop the Dragon Remains Tower, which is Butler No.1’s physical body.

And the meatball was the physical body of the Star Tower’s auxiliary intelligent life.

Its death meant the Star Tower’s auxiliary intelligent life ceased to exist.

Nonetheless, even without the auxiliary intelligent life, the Star Tower could continue basic operations following pre-set programs.

The advantage now was Sunan no longer had to worry about the auxiliary intelligent life harassing him.

"The elemental pool here is even larger than the one in the Dragon Forest, but alas, it can’t be taken away."

Sunan was somewhat eager for the Star Tower, yet this tower was destined to remain beyond his control.

After all, he didn’t possess the Secret Seal Core of this tower, nor knew whether [Dark Throne] had left any failsafe.

Though the tower itself was excellent material.

Should he wish to construct his own Wizard Tower in the future, he could dismantle the Star Tower for materials.

"Constructing the talent crystal model here is faster than in the Dragon Remains Tower."

Sunan contemplated, deciding to simply construct the talent crystal model here.

Currently, the Star Tower posed no threat to him; all combat forces were obliterated by him, leaving only the otherworldly creature summoning array and defense array.

The former was easily dealt with by sending a Secret Puppet near the summoning array to eliminate any arrivals.

As for the latter, it now served as his protection.

The Star Tower autonomously blocks all intruders outside.

Unless someone depletes the Star Tower’s energy and breaches the defense array, Sunan need not worry about interruptions as long as he remains here.
