The Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 13 The wizard is pursuing the truth, not immortality

When it comes to what is the most valuable thing in a wizard's inheritance, knowledge is undoubtedly one of the answers.

Su Nan suppressed the joy in her heart, walked quickly to the bookshelf, and quickly scanned the books on it.

"Composition", "Materials", "Life Energy Structure", "Basics of Enchanting Runes", "Principles of Puppet Mechanics", "Basic Puppet Structure", "Puppets and Golems".

More than 80% of the books are related to puppet making.

It can be seen that the owner here is very passionate about this skill, even obsessed with it.

It’s no wonder that puppet creations like the Iron Swallowing Beast are created.

I just don’t know where this wizard apprentice went after that?

Su Nan had a vague guess in his mind. After thinking about it, he turned around and came to the desk.

The surface of the desk made of solid wood was covered with a thick layer of dust, and there was nothing on it. Su Nan opened the drawer below and found that the first few drawers were empty. Only the last drawer contained two diaries, a ring and Two boxes.

Sunan took out the top diary and opened the cover.

There is only a few lines of words on the slightly yellowed first page.

[Ange McLean, recorded in the year 1124 of the Astral Calendar. 】

Year 1124 of the astral calendar, which is about 125 years ago.

"The appearance of iron-eating beasts in the Black Rock Mine seems to have happened more than a hundred years ago."

Su Nan was thoughtful and continued to turn the pages.

I don’t know what kind of material the diary’s paper is made of, but it’s still intact after all this time.

[April 12, 1124 Starlight Calendar]

[I completed the exploration of the Blackstone iron ore vein today. As I guessed, this vein is very rich in reserves. Now I have enough materials to use for my puppet experiment. This is really good news. I decided, Build a laboratory deep in the mine as my future retreat. 】

[February 8, 1126 Starlight Calendar]

[The Black Rock Leopard’s experiment finally achieved a key breakthrough! It won't take long before I can successfully refine my own puppet creation! 】

"It turns out that kind of puppet is called Black Rock Leopard." Su Nan raised an eyebrow.

[March 15, 1127 Starlight Calendar]

[Hahaha, it worked. I finally succeeded in refining the first black rock leopard. This is my unique puppet creation. I am indeed a genius! 】

[However, the combat effectiveness of the Black Rock Leopard is still not very good. It is much worse than the formal knight. There are still many areas that can be improved. More combat data needs to be collected. 】

[There just happen to be a lot of knights outside, let them act as Black Rock Leopard's opponents, they are really a group of lucky guys. 】

[June 10, 1128 Starlight Calendar]

[The improvement experiment went well. The black rock leopard now has a combat power level comparable to that of a junior knight. It is a pity that the timid lord gave up on this mining area. I have to find new targets that can provide combat data, maybe the black scale lizard in the north. People are good candidates. 】

There is not much content on each page of the diary, only two or three sentences.

Moreover, the time span is relatively large, and the shortest interval is more than half a year.

Most of the following content is the progress of Black Rock Leopard's improvement experiments.

Occasionally mixed with some meditation, spell learning and going out to collect materials.

Reading between the lines, it is not difficult to tell that this wizard apprentice named Ange is somewhat arrogant and withdrawn, and does not like to contact the outside world.

It is worth mentioning that he is also a third-level wizard apprentice.

In the elemental desert, the resource-poor Starlight Continent, he was promoted to a third-level wizard apprentice before he was a hundred years old. It has to be said that Ange is indeed a genius and has the capital to be proud of.

However, as he grew older, Ange gradually shifted his energy from puppet research to practice, and the tone in his diary became visibly more anxious and confused.

[September 20, 1162 Starlight Calendar]

[The improvement of mental power seems to have reached a bottleneck. There has been no obvious growth for more than half a year. Maybe I should use external help. 】

[January 4, 1163 Starlight Calendar]

[Luckily, I found a recipe for the evil phantom potion. If I can make the evil phantom potion, it will definitely solve the problem of not being able to increase my mental power! 】

[May 19, 1165 Starlight Calendar]

【Damn! Why can't I find all the ingredients in the recipe? Obviously I have found the place where the material grew according to the records in the book, but why can't I find it? Could it be that the record in the book is wrong? 】【February 6, 1167 in the astral calendar】

[I see, elements are lost, energy particle concentration drops sharply, and the continent we are on has become a desert. No wonder I haven’t met any other wizard apprentices for so many years. No, I won’t give up just like that. I can’t find one. If you have all the materials available, try other alternatives. I don’t believe that I can’t solve the problem with my wisdom! 】

[April 4, 1169 Starlight Calendar]

[The experiment failed. 】

[February 9, 1170 Starlight Calendar]

[The experiment failed. 】

(Repeat experiment failure record)

[March 16, 1192 Starlight Calendar]

[No, no matter how low-level materials are extracted and purified, the effect will not reach the point where they can replace high-level materials. There is no chance of making this potion successfully! 】

【hateful! I'm not willing to give in! 】

The following ten pages are filled with all kinds of resentment and denunciation of the world, as well as reluctance, bitterness and despair at not seeing a way forward.

It wasn't until 1,200 years in the astral calendar that Ange seemed to wake up and regain his composure.

[December 3, 1200 Starlight Calendar]

[I can feel my life force gradually passing away. It seems that I won’t live much longer. 】

[I may be able to live longer if I carry out biological modification, but this aspect is not my strong point, and I don’t want to turn myself into a human or a ghost in order to survive. Maybe it’s just because that kind of modification will make me completely I have lost hope of being promoted to a wizard. If I can't be promoted to a wizard, what's the use of living longer? 】

[Wizards pursue truth, not immortality. 】

[May 5, 1202 in the astral calendar]

[Death is getting closer and closer, I seem to be able to smell the decay of my body. 】

[The good news is that I discovered the legend of the Tower of Stars in an ancient book. It is said to be a legacy left by ancient wizards. Maybe I can find a way to be promoted to a wizard there. This is my only hope now. 】

[I decided to find the whereabouts of the Tower of Stars! 】

Tower of Stars!

Sunan's expression changed.

In his few memories about previous games, the Tower of Stars seems to be one of the only three wizard inheritances in Starlight Continent in version 1.0!

It is not the laboratory left behind by wizard apprentices like this, but the inheritance left by real wizards.

It is the last bit of goodwill left by the wizard who went on an expedition to the multiverse thousands of years ago to this continent.

It doesn't take much thinking to know that there must be a lot of precious knowledge and materials in that kind of place.

If we can find the Tower of Stars, becoming a wizard will no longer be a problem!

Su Nan was excited and quickly turned to the next page, but what she saw was blank.

"No more?"

Sunan continued to turn back, but everything behind was blank.

Apparently, Ange McClane never came back after he went out to find the Tower of Stars.

I don’t know if he found the Tower of Stars in the end?

Sunan guessed that the answer was probably no.

Otherwise, in the past fifty years, this laboratory would not have looked like no one has set foot in it.

Thinking of this, Sunan couldn't help but feel a little sad.

With Ange McClain's qualifications and talents, he would have definitely become a powerful wizard in the wizarding era thousands of years ago.

It's a pity that he was born in the wrong era, and in the end he could only waste his whole life and die unwillingly.

"Wizard's Jedi."
