The Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 153 Huge Energy Gap, Abandoned Elemental Pool

After searching carefully and finding nothing of value, Sunan went directly to the upper floor.

The third floor is an area divided into multiple halls, mainly for various leisure and entertainment venues.

"Relaxation area."

There is usually nothing to gain from this kind of area. After a brief search, Sunan went straight to the upper level.

Starting from the third floor, there are the training area (including meditation room and spell practice room), workshop area (including magic item workshop and puppet factory), experimental area, and warehouse area.

There are hundreds of clay golems and stone golems placed in the workshop area.

But it looks like it hasn't been started for a long time, presumably because of lack of energy.

The experimental area was also empty, with no valuable things such as experimental notes.

The same goes for the Warehouse District.

"The layout of this place is similar to that of my base. With a little modification, it can be used as base No. 3."

Sunan nodded secretly and continued to explore higher.

It was not until the twelfth floor that the situation finally changed.

The twelfth floor looks like an extremely spacious laboratory with a large number of workbenches. The difference is that there is a specially divided area where dozens of huge transparent glass jars are placed.

Each glass jar was filled with green or blue liquid, and inside were strange creatures, including subdragons and other types of creatures. Su Nan even saw the feet and heads of suspected pure-blood dragons. and other organs.

Surprised, he opened one of the glass jars and took out a dragon head, but after careful inspection he was disappointed.

Perhaps due to improper storage for a long time, the essence in the dragon head has been completely lost and turned into worthless waste.

Reluctantly, Sunan opened the glass jars one by one and checked, but the results were the same.

"That's right. After all, thousands of years have passed. No matter how powerful the preservation functions of these facilities are, it is impossible for these biological organs to persist for so long."

Sighing, Sunan gathered his thoughts and continued to the upper floor.

The thirteenth and fourteenth floors are identical, with a large number of workbenches and glass jars arranged.

Obviously, like the twelfth floor, it is a renovation area.

The organisms and biological organs in the glass jar have also long lost their effectiveness.

"It seems that the builders of the eco-park attach great importance to biomodification."

Sunan was thoughtful.

When he was in Area 1 of the Ecological Park before, he saw many sub-dragon species that he had never seen before.

At that time, he thought it was his own problem. After all, there were so many types of dragons that it was impossible for anyone to recognize them all. It was normal to occasionally see ones he didn't recognize, but now it seemed that was not the case.

Those unfamiliar sub-dragon species are probably not the original races, but new sub-dragon species that were transformed and cultivated in this ecological park.

After visiting the first fourteen floors, we are left with the last floor.

Su Nan already had a guess in his mind, so he took a deep breath and stepped into the teleportation array.

After a flash of vision, he had arrived on a wide platform.

The whole platform is made of white stone, with dense patterns carved on the surface, giving it a mysterious beauty.

"White marble!" Su Nan's eyes narrowed slightly.

White marble is a kind of fine-grained marble with pure white color and hard texture. It is an excellent construction and sculpture material.

When building a wizard tower, many wizards choose white marble as the main material.

Looking around the platform, there is a vast starry sky, dotted with countless stars, and the dazzling Milky Way, which makes people feel that they are very insignificant.

After admiring it for a moment, Sunan withdrew his gaze and looked towards the deepest part of the platform.

There is a square pool ten meters long and ten meters wide. It is paved with pure white marble. The surface is covered with a layer of silver coating. The coating is densely covered with lines, but a super large energy-gathering array is burned into it.

"Elemental pool!"

Sunan's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that this ecological park would also build an elemental pool.

Although it doesn't look very big, it can't even reach a small element pool. It can only be regarded as a micro element pool at best, but it's still pretty good.

After all, the elemental pool is the standard configuration of the wizard tower's energy supply system.

"It seems that outside of the eco-park's energy cycle system, the small amount of energy needed to maintain operations is provided by this element pool."

The operating principle of the element pool is to open a channel from the elemental plane, extract elemental energy from the elemental plane, and continuously provide unlimited and stable energy.

It is a high-end energy supply device that is far more efficient than setting up magic energy transmission pipelines on leyline nodes.

Many large facilities use elemental pools as energy supply devices, the most common of which is the Wizard Tower.

A small elemental pool is enough to maintain the basic needs of a wizard tower.

However, building an elemental pool requires a large amount of gems, special metals and various rare materials, which is extremely costly and requires certain [magic item manufacturing] skills.

Even if they are official wizards, not everyone can afford to build an elemental pool.

Thousands of years ago, when the density of energy particles in the Starlight Continent dropped, some wizards once thought of borrowing the method of building an elemental pool, opening the elemental plane channel, and introducing elemental energy to increase the density of energy particles, but they failed in the end.

The number of channels is small, and the elemental energy introduced from the elemental plane cannot keep up with the speed of energy loss.

The greater number of passages is equivalent to digging countless holes in the plane barrier of Starlight Continent, which greatly reduces the isolation and protective functions of the plane barrier. A large number of alien creatures pass through the plane barrier and enter the Starlight Continent, causing many disasters.

Many elemental gods even took the opportunity to extend their tentacles into the Starlight Continent.

In the end, the wizards had to give up the idea of ​​doing more harm than good and drinking poison to quench their thirst.

"It's a pity that the elemental pool has been abandoned."

After checking it over, Sunan came to a conclusion.

Think about it, if the element pool can still operate, the ecological park will not be in the dilemma of insufficient energy.

"If this element pool can be repaired and activated, the energy supply of the ecological park will be guaranteed."

Sunan's face showed joy.

Although repairing the element pool is not an easy task, it is easier than building an element pool from scratch. He is still somewhat sure.

After recovering from the joy, Sunan looked at the crystal ball next to the elemental pool.

The crystal ball is round, purple-blue in color, with a radius of about half a meter. It is suspended in mid-air sixty or seventy centimeters above the ground, glowing slightly.

According to his experience, if nothing unexpected happens, this crystal ball is probably the control hub of the ecological park.

Coming to the crystal ball, Sunan thought for a while, took out the key and placed it on the surface of the crystal ball.

"The startup source is detected and the management system is officially started."

"Scan the user status and it meets the standards. Do you want to log in?"

"Log in." Sunan said without hesitation.

"Logged in."

"The manager queue is currently blank, and the login authority level has been raised to the highest level."

"Welcome to Longlin Ecological Park. Master, Butler No. 1 will serve you."

Housekeeper?

Su Nan's eyes flashed slightly.

When he heard the sound coming from the Dragon Skeleton Tower before, he guessed whether there was an intelligent assisted life like a tower spirit in the ecological park. Now it seems that he was right.

However, the performance of this thing should be far inferior to that of the Tower Spirit. At most, it is only a little more advanced than the puppet beings such as the Adamantine Golem.

If it is a real tower spirit, even if there is no order from the controller for a thousand years, it can still choose the optimal way to run the ecological park, so that the ecological park will not become what it is now.

"No. 1, check the status of the ecological park." Sunan issued the first order. "Start testing yourself!"

"Scanning."

"Building three-dimensional models."

"Scan completed."

A glimmer of light emerged, and countless rays of light overflowed from the crystal ball, intertwining and outlining a three-dimensional model above. It was a 3D panoramic view of the ecological park that had been shrunk countless times.

There is also a lot of text marked next to it.

[Ecological Park: Longlin]

[Level: Large (Damage 69.34%)]

[Current remaining energy: 38.79%]

[Intelligent Assisted Life: Butler No. 1]

[Area: Area 1, Area 2, Area 3]

[Facilities (Dragon Skeleton Tower): Residential Area, Warehouse Area, Experimental Area, Training Area, Workshop Area, Transformation Area Control Center, Element Pool (Micro)]

[Servant: Clay Golem×182]

[Protective device: Large space barrier (damage degree 3.48%)]

[Combat Device: Golem Legion (Stone Golem × 145)]

"Less than 39% of energy left."

Sunan clicked on three areas in turn.

[Zone 1: Operating state, the minimum energy required to maintain operation is 24.28%, the optimal energy is 35.12%]

[Zone 2: Suspended state, minimum energy required to maintain operation is 53.66%, optimal energy is 73.41%]

[Zone 3: Running state, the minimum energy required to maintain operation is 3.06%]

"Zone 2 will occupy at least 50% more energy!"

Su Nan was secretly stunned. No wonder Area 2 was abandoned and abandoned.

After all, it is an area where dragons are raised, and the amount of energy consumed is indeed staggering.

"It seems that the first step is to restore the energy to above 81%."

The minimum energy required in the three areas adds up to more than 81%.

As long as the energy of the ecological park is restored above this limit, the ecological environment of Area 2 can be gradually restored while maintaining the operation of Area 1 and Dragon Skeleton Tower.

After the ecological environment of Zone 2 is restored, we will consider how to restore the dragon population.

"Open the energy tank." Sunan ordered.

With a click, the ground next to the crystal ball slowly opened, and a hollow stone pillar protruded from it.

Su Nan took out all the magic stones in the space ring and threw them into the stone pillars.

After a moment, the data next to the three-dimensional model suddenly changed, and the remaining energy changed from 38.79% to 38.81%, an increase of 0.02%.

"Two hundred and thirty-five low-level magic stones only increase the energy value by 0.02%!"

Sunan couldn't help but take a breath.

Based on this calculation, if you want to increase the energy to 81%, you will have to invest at least half a million lower-level magic stones!

The cost is almost 900,000 gold coins!

Even if he doesn't use a single gold coin from now on, it will take him four to five years to save all of it.

This is why he can make magic stones at extremely low cost.

If it were other wizard apprentices who really wanted to use magic stones to increase their energy, they would never be able to restore the ecological environment of Zone 2 in their lifetime.

This shows how much energy the eco-park consumes!

"81% energy requires so many magic stones. I don't know how many magic stones I need to invest to restore it to 100%. It seems that this method will not work. We still have to find a way to repair the element pool."

After thinking for a moment, Sunan made a calculation in his mind and issued a new order.

"No. 1, how much energy does it take to repair the space barrier?"

The top priority is to fill the gap in the ecological park first, lest the sub-dragon species in Area 1 escape again and attract more wizard apprentices or intelligent creatures of other races.

"It consumes 6.23% energy."

Sunan quickly estimated that after repairing the space barrier, the remaining energy was enough to meet the minimum energy required for the operation of areas 1 and 3.

At worst, I'll throw in some magic stones later to increase the energy.

Thinking of this, Sunan immediately issued a repair order.

"Repair has begun and is expected to take 18 hours, 35 minutes and 32 seconds."

Watching the three-dimensional model slowly disappear, Su Nan breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling extremely happy in his heart.

Although no valuable treasures were found in the Dragon Skeleton Tower, the Dragon Forest itself was already the biggest gain.

With Longlin as the foundation, he can build a base with more complete functions and facilities and a safer base.

Moreover, the tens of thousands of sub-dragon species and countless rare magic plants in the Dragon Forest are also a huge wealth.

As long as the element pool is repaired, it is equivalent to having an inexhaustible treasure house of materials.

Before being promoted to a wizard and building a wizard tower, Longlin can completely serve as his base and develop and expand his power on top of it.

"After the element pool is repaired, Base No. 1 can be moved in."

Dragon Forest is a half-dimensional space with no fixed position in the material world. As long as Sunan, as the controller, opens a channel in the material world, he can enter Dragon Forest.

At the same time, outside the Dragon Skeleton Tower.

The traveler couldn't help but look at the Dragon Skeleton Tower, with undisguised envy in his eyes.

As a wizard's apprentice, he knew very well the huge benefits of acquiring a large ecological park.

Whether it is the improvement of personal strength or the development of power, it has extremely obvious benefits.

But he also knew very well that this ecological park was not something he could care about.

On the one hand, he cannot beat the players, and on the other hand, it is also because even if he gets the ecological park, he does not have the capital to provide sufficient energy for the ecological park.

But players are different.

I heard from Ye Xiao that the player has vast resources that far exceed those of ordinary third-level wizard apprentices. Maybe he has a way to solve the problem of insufficient energy in the ecological park.

"Looking on the bright side, if Sunan can really solve the problem of the ecological park, if you want Yalong blood in the future, you can buy it from him."

The traveler thought secretly.

At this moment, the door of the Dragon Skeleton Tower suddenly opened with a rumble, and Sunan walked out.

The traveler hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't help his curiosity, went up to him and asked:

"How about it?"

"There are many problems." Su Nan shrugged and said, "But the gaps in the ecological park are already being repaired, and it will not take long to be fully restored. What are you going to do next?"

The traveler was slightly startled.

What else can be done?

The ecological park is already your territory, how can I still stay here shamelessly?

But what surprised him was that Sunan then extended an invitation.

"Are you interested in being a guest at my place?"
