The Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 109 Bloodline Mark, Double-edged Spider

Sunan and Qiangwei were extremely happy.

As for the gem bugs alone, their trip this time was not in vain.

After calming themselves down, the two continued to look at the third notebook.

This notebook is about how to extract the bloodline of ancient alien beasts from magical creatures and convert it into a one-time use bloodline ability.

Avegni named this ability Blood Mark.

Depending on the extracted bloodline of ancient alien beasts, the resulting bloodline marks will also be different, with different strengths and weaknesses.

However, in order to make a bloodline imprint, the extracted ancient beast bloodline must reach a certain concentration.

Avegni once tried to extract the blood of the Scarlet Fang from the Blood Soul Insect, but unfortunately the concentration of the blood was too low, so he had to give up in the end.

"The bloodline of ancient beasts? That's too rare." Qiangwei shook her head.

There are still many descendants of ancient beasts surviving on the Starlight Continent, but unfortunately, without exception, the inherited bloodline is very meager.

Even Avegni couldn't refine a bloodline that met the conditions, so she would probably be in trouble.

And a very small number of people with higher inheritance bloodlines are also very powerful, and she can't deal with them at all.

This research result is useless to her.

However, Sunan didn't think so.

What does it matter if the blood concentration is low? With the Rubik's Cube in hand, synthesis can increase the concentration.

This is not the first time he has done this.

From this point of view, the bloodline mark seems to be tailor-made for him.

As long as he finds a descendant group of ancient alien beasts, no matter how meager the bloodline of this group is, he can use the Rubik's Cube to forcibly synthesize it to meet the standards of the bloodline mark.

Putting down the notes, Sunan couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Avegni may be ruthless and not a good person, but he has to admit that this guy is really an amazing genius.

Blood soul insect blood fusion, gem insect, blood mark.

An ordinary third-level wizard apprentice might not be able to study any of these three in a lifetime.

But Avigani did it all.

If he hadn't been unlucky and ended up on a dead end, his final achievements would have been very dazzling.

Even if you can't be promoted to wizard due to the limited environment of Starlight Continent, you can definitely become a famous and powerful man in the mainland!

"This guy is truly a genius."

Qiangwei gently rubbed the cover of the note, feeling a little sad.

Even a genius like Avegni fell on the road to becoming a wizard, so where is her future?

Do you really have any hope of being promoted to an official wizard in this life?

The two had different thoughts, and the room fell into silence for a while.

After a long time, Sunan gathered his thoughts and said:

"Search other places as well."

Qiangwei came back to her senses and nodded silently.

The two then thoroughly inspected the entire cave and found no new gains, so they began to distribute the spoils.

There was nothing much to say about the notes. The two of them divided their work and copied each note, and then each took a copy.

As for the gem worms and blood soul worms, they are evenly distributed.

Sunan took away all the rare metals and gave Qiangwei some magic stones as compensation.

After distributing the spoils, Qiangwei felt much better.

Although the knowledge gained this time, the bloodline mark and the blood soul worm fusion were not of much use to her, the gem worm alone made her feel that her trip was worthwhile.

Not to mention Sunan, he has gained more bloodline mark knowledge than Qiangwei.

"The more than 10,000 gold coins I spent were not in vain."

Sunan was very satisfied.

After walking out of the cave, Qiangwei smiled at Sunan and said, "Happy cooperation, player. If there is a similar opportunity next time, we can cooperate again."

Su Nan also smiled slightly: "Okay, then I'm looking forward to it."

"See you at the party."

"See you at the party."

After watching Qiangwei leave, Sunan also returned to the original cave.

When passing the lake, Sunan glanced in the direction of the city-state of the Human-Faced Lion from a distance.

Many kobolds and ogres are busy near the city gate, seemingly repairing the collapsed city wall.

There are also groups of human-faced lions patrolling the island, and the guards are several times tighter than before.

It is estimated that this will be the norm in the city-state of the Man-Faced Lion for a long time to come.

"It seems that there is no way to sneak in again in a short time."

"Forget it, the information we got this time is almost enough anyway."

After taking a deep look at the direction of the city-state of the Human-Faced Lion, Sunan turned and left.

Back in Glitter City, Sunan found Keyi immediately and explained what happened to the city-state of the Human-Faced Lion.

After listening to Sunan's words, Keyi couldn't help but frown.

"According to what you say, the city-state of the Man-Faced Lion can muster at least four to five thousand troops?"

"Absolutely. The residents of the underground world are different from us humans. Almost all of them are soldiers."

Seeing that Keyi's face became more serious, Sunan comforted him.

"Most of the slaves in the Lion City State are kobolds and lizardmen. They are not much stronger than ordinary soldiers. The ogres are a little more troublesome."

"The only ones that can really be considered a threat are those two thousand human-faced lions."

"What are you going to do?" Key asked in a deep voice.

Su Nan had already prepared a draft, so he said without thinking:

"First of all, continue to seal off that forest. From now on, it will be a military restricted area, and no one will be allowed to enter."

"Second, build a camp in front of the cave. I need a bridgehead to attack the city-state of the Sphinx."

"Plus, I need a lot of granite."

Key agreed one by one, and then said: "How many troops do you need me to send to assist you?"

He has long wanted to deal with the threat of the underground city-state, and even if it requires paying a high price, he has already been mentally prepared.

But unexpectedly, Sunan shook his head and refused.

"Need not."

"The environment in the underground world is not suitable for human combat. I plan to use all golem puppets as the siege army."

The underground world is dimly lit, and it is difficult for humans without dark vision to adapt.

Even a knight can only use 60 to 70% of his 100% strength when fighting in the underground world.

If the troops of the Shining Leader were really to be used, even if they could finally capture the city-state of the Human-Faced Lion, they would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Might as well use golems to attack the city.

Golems with dark vision can move freely in the underground world.

As for the possible losses caused by the war, Sunan was not worried at all.

On the map Qiangwei gave him, there were seven mineral veins within a hundred kilometers of the Lion City, including a large iron mine, three medium-sized iron mines, a large copper mine, a small silver mine, and a small gold mine. As long as the threat of the human-faced lion is eliminated, he can freely develop these mineral veins.

Future profits will be more than enough to cover war expenses.

After finalizing all the matters, Key immediately started making arrangements.

Sunan returned to the base and started to get busy.

The six divine blood ambers he obtained from Qiangwei were all integrated into the high-level divine blood amber.

The change brought about was that the proficiency gained by practicing the Star Ring Meditation method every day soared to 3100 points.

On the other hand, the learning progress of Spell Silence is also increasing steadily.

Su Nan estimates that he will be able to master the silent spell by the Spring Dawn Moon next year (March).

It is worth mentioning that the establishment of the Knight Academy has also been put on the agenda.

Taking into account the commuting conditions and logistical pressure of teachers and students, the construction location of Knight Academy cannot be chosen outside the city.

After repeated selections, Sunan finally chose a location on the outskirts of Glitter City, near the north gate of the city.

Now that the construction of the college has begun, all the relevant matters have been left to the people below. Sunan only takes the time to check it occasionally.

Judging from the progress of the project, it will be completed around the time of the Fire Moon.

Enrollment can begin at that time.

Key's actions were extremely efficient.

The Moon of Spring Dawn has not yet passed, and a brand new camp has been built based on the original mining area.

Sunan directly named the camp Camp No. 1, built a new puppet factory there, and then worked at full capacity to refine the stone golem.

The output of steel golems is limited by soul crystals and cannot be refined in large quantities.

But as long as there are enough gems and rocks, stone golems can be refined without limit.

All profits from the cave mining area were invested by Sunan in refining the stone golem.

In order to deal with the threat of the human-faced lion city-state as soon as possible, Key also specially diverted a large amount of funds from the territory's income to support the construction of the golem army.

Sufficient funds have allowed the number of golem legions to grow very rapidly.

At the same time, Sunan is also considering refining a new kind of puppet.

Steel Golems and Stone Golems are extremely powerful and indestructible, but their drawback is that they move a little slowly.

This was clearly demonstrated in the previous battles in the city-state of the Human-Faced Lion.

Facing the fast and agile man-faced lion, the elite stone golem and stone golem naturally suffer some disadvantages.

In response to this, Sunan felt that he had to consider it early and design a more sensitive puppet.

Most traditional golems have a muscular and humanoid appearance, with thick and short limbs. Except for a few golems with the ability to fly, most golems cannot avoid the shortcoming of relatively slow movements.

Therefore, new changes must be made to the new puppet, and it is best to design it into an animal shape with more flexible movements.

The first thing Su Nan thought of was spiders.

The most shocking monsters in the underground world are undoubtedly various mutant spiders and spider-like monsters.

Especially the spider elves that mutated from dark elves have a terrible reputation that spreads throughout the underground world.

They move as fast as ghosts, appear and disappear, and often launch sneak attacks from unexpected places. They can also fly over walls and walls in caves and tunnels with steep terrain. They are one of the most powerful assassins in the underground world.

If the puppet is designed in the shape of a spider, its eight legs will undoubtedly make it more adaptable to the complex terrain of the underground world.

Thinking of doing it, Sunan immediately started designing a spider puppet.

His increased proficiency in refining stone golems in large batches has already allowed his [Puppet Refining] to break through to level 4.

Coupled with the experience of refining the black rock leopard, Sunan completed the structural design of the spider puppet without much effort.

The key is still the issue of materials.

In order to maximize the advantage of the spider puppet's rapid movement, the material must be light metal.

Of course, hardness cannot be ignored.

Otherwise, you will just end up with a bunch of crispy skin that will break when touched.

Black stone iron is undoubtedly a very suitable choice in this regard.

It's just that the current output of black stone iron is a bit low. Even if it is all supplied to Camp No. 1, it will not be enough for the southern Jiangsu troops, let alone the supply of refined black rock leopards.

After repeated selections, Sunan finally decided to use a metal called tungsten steel as the material for refining the new puppet.

Tungsten pole steel has the characteristics of high hardness, wear resistance and good toughness. In addition, it also has a series of excellent properties such as heat resistance and corrosion resistance.

Although it is not as hard as black stone iron, it doesn't matter, it is synthetically strengthened.

In the final calculation, synthetic tungsten steel, which has a hardness and lightness similar to that of black stone iron, has a cost similar to that of black stone iron in the same volume, and can be used as a substitute material for black stone iron.

After finalizing the materials and design, the refining process is relatively easy.

The spider puppet finally refined has the same effects as the golem, such as dark vision, immunity to all mind-affecting effects, immunity to poison, sleep, paralysis, confusion, suffocation, and high elemental resistance.

At this point, the Spider Golem is no worse than the Stone Golem.

However, Sunan still felt that something was not enough.

He simply gave the two front attack legs of the spider puppet a demonic treatment, and added [Black Steel] and [Sharpness] properties to greatly enhance the hardness and sharpness.

In other words, the spider puppet is equivalent to carrying two magic weapons with him, and they are the kind that can attack at the same time.

After final calculation, the cost of refining the spider puppet was as high as one hundred and eighty gold coins.

It is more than nine times the size of an ordinary stone golem!

But you get what you pay for, and the spider puppet's combat capabilities are much higher than those of ordinary stone golems.

Sunan specially conducted a test. In a one-on-one situation, the spider puppet chopped a stone golem into dozens of pieces in less than half a minute. The stone golem's proud defense could not withstand that attack. Two demonized foot blades.

Taken together, the spider puppet's combat effectiveness has almost reached the level of a peak knight.

It's worthy of its high cost.

"Let's call this puppet Double-edged Spider."

Looking at the pitch-black spider in front of him that was as big as a carriage, Su Nan showed a satisfied smile on his face.

With the double-edged spider, the battle system of the Golem Legion is even more complete.

"It's a pity that flying puppets are relatively rare and there is no corresponding design drawing. It would be very labor-intensive to research by yourself, and the manufacturing difficulty and material requirements are not low. Otherwise, adding another flying type would be even more perfect."

Most of the puppet designs currently owned by Su Nan are various low-level golems, and there are no flying puppets.

Even if there was one, it would probably be difficult to produce it with his current skills and materials.

After all, flying puppets don't just need to be able to fly, they also need powerful enough long-range attacks.

Flying puppets without long-range attacks are nothing more than flying targets.

Take metal golems as an example. Those with the ability to fly and long-range attacks are at least at the level of shadowsteel golems and mithril golems.

The combat effectiveness of these two golems is very close to that of official wizards.

It is basically impossible for a third-level wizard apprentice to make one.

"It would be nice if there were flying puppets with weaker long-range attack capabilities. They can be synthesized anyway."

“Ask the others at the next Jungle Cabin party.”
