The Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 209 Wizard Tower Structure

The second part of the Wizard Tower is space planning.

As can be seen from the name, the main content is the layout of the internal space of the Wizard Tower.

A complete wizard tower, its internal space includes but is not limited to the experimental area, planting area, meditation area, practice area, warehouse area, living area, workshop area, prison room, etc.

These areas are not simply marked off.

Protective magic should be deployed in the experimental area to prevent accidental explosions from destroying the wizard tower.

Energy-gathering arrays should be arranged in the planting area to gather energy particles to strengthen the growth of magic plants.

An energy-activating array should be arranged in the meditation area to improve meditation efficiency.

Even the simplest training area must be reinforced and protected, and magic targets that can detect energy intensity must be arranged to facilitate apprentices to obtain their mastery of spells in real time.

But the most important thing is to use dimensional space technology to expand space.

A small wizard tower that looks only five to six hundred meters high on the outside, but the internal area is often larger than a town.

This piece alone will consume a lot of star sand.

—The latter is also the main material for making space magic items.

The final combat device is also the top priority of the Wizard Tower.

Combat equipment is mainly divided into two parts: protection and attack.

The former is mainly a mysterious protective energy field.

The most basic small protective energy field of Mystery Lock can easily withstand the spell bombardment of dozens of first-level wizards for up to twenty-four hours.

As long as the instantaneous attack intensity does not exceed the protection limit of the energy force field and the element pool has sufficient energy, it is basically difficult to break through the energy force field.

Generally speaking, unless it is a war creation of the same level, it is basically difficult for an individual biological entity to break through the protective energy field of the Mystery Lock.

When he first attacked the Tower of Stars, Sunan also attacked it from the inside. The energy field of the Tower of Stars was not used at all. Otherwise, even if he had an army of golems, he would not be able to conquer the Tower of Stars within three months.

You must know that the Parliament of Truth spent more than two years, and the continuous attacks every day were unable to break through the energy field of the Tower of Stars.

As for the standard small Mystic Lock protective energy field, its defensive power is simply not comparable to that of a copycat energy field like Tower of Stars.

Like the Elemental Pools, Mystic Protective Energy Fields are available in Small, Medium, and Large sizes.

The higher the level, the stronger the defense, and the higher the cost.

If possible, Sunan would also like to build a central mythical protective energy field.

However, the gold coins consumed are secondary. The key is that some materials cannot be found on the Starlight Continent.

"Or you can consider synthesis."

Sunan looked thoughtful.

If you lack the materials to build medium-sized facilities, you can simply obtain them by synthesizing small-sized facilities.

However, in this case, the cost will inevitably increase significantly.

After all, according to past experience, the cost of synthetic products must be far higher than that of artificially manufactured products.

After thinking for a moment, Sunan shook his head and put this idea aside for the time being. It would not be too late to think about this issue again when he actually starts building.

In terms of attack, it is subdivided into ultra-long-range strike devices and dispatched legions.

The former are generally various energy weapons.

For example, the spell turret in the Tower of Stars.

The spell turret is the most basic energy weapon structure. It can emit energy beams to attack specific targets. It is the most basic long-range strike device in the wizard tower.

Further up are dissociation cannons, plasma cannons, pulse cannons, etc.

The power of the dissociation cannon's bombardment is approximately equivalent to the sixth-level spell [Dissociation], which is enough to break down a first-level wizard into the most basic molecular units.

Generally speaking, the disintegration cannon is already the final weapon sequence for small wizard towers.

The plasma cannon and pulse cannon further up are the final weapon sequences of the medium and large wizard towers respectively.

As for the floating city, the strike devices are usually phase weapons, such as magic crystal superconducting pulse cannons.

"The spell turrets are okay against wizard apprentices, but they are slightly weaker against formal wizards, unless hundreds or even thousands of spell turrets focus their fire."

"It's best to use Rubik's Cube synthesis to increase the power of the spell turret."

"There are also dissociation cannons. We need to make a few more."

Sunan had some calculations in her mind.

As for dispatching legions, they generally refer to golem legions, but there are also other creatures.

For example, some wizard towers like to raise some groups of creatures, which can be dispatched during battles.

As long as they are stationed in the wizard tower for a long time and can leave the wizard tower to fight during war, they all fall into this category.

However, the main force of most of the legions dispatched by the Wizard Tower are various demons, and they are mid-to-high-level demons.

Low-level golems such as flesh golems, clay golems, and stone golems are not looked down upon by formal wizards at all. They are used to do chores and make ends meet, and their effectiveness in battle is not as good as a few spell turrets.

Most of the wizard tower's built-in golem legions mainly start with steel golems.

As powerful as the adamantine golem, it can only be regarded as a regular soldier in the wizard tower.

Only high-level golems that can compete with wizards, such as the Shadowsteel Golem and the King Kong Golem, can be considered high-level battle sequences.

However, the manufacturing cost of such golems is astronomical.

Sunan didn't even know if Starlight Continent could still find all the materials to make the Shadowsteel Golem and the King Kong Golem.

If that doesn't work, the only way to create a golem of the same level is through synthesis.

On top of the Shadowsteel Golem and the King Kong Golem, there is also a more advanced Supreme Golem.

The Supreme Golem is the original form of a fel construct.

The so-called magic constructs are also called legendary constructs, including but not limited to arcane guards, magic mechas, tower spirit constructs, mithril sages, etc.

Without exception, these legendary constructed beings possess superior combat power comparable to that of third-level wizards. Those who are powerful are even powerful enough to confront true spirit wizards head-on.

Just because the cost is extremely expensive, very few wizard towers can afford it, so it usually exists as a battle sequence in the floating city.

Although the Supreme Golem is not as good as a real magic energy construct, it is much stronger than the Shadowsteel Golem and the Adamantine Golem. Even if it is placed in a large wizard tower, it usually exists as the final battle sequence.

It would be no problem for a Supreme Golem to kill more than a dozen first-level wizards in a head-to-head confrontation.

"The Golem Legion."

Su Nan's eyes flashed with thought.

If you let him choose, he will definitely pay more attention to quality, and he will pay more attention to quality rather than more.

The built-in golem army must start with adamantine golems no matter what.

The main force is the adamantine golem, supplemented by a small number of golems of the same level as the shadowsteel golem.

But in this case, the cost must be very staggering.

"At least the problems that can be solved with gold coins are not problems. If you save slowly, you can always save enough. There is no way to create materials out of thin air."

Sunan thought silently.

In addition to the three major parts of energy supply, space planning and combat equipment, the tower spirit is also an important part of the wizard tower. They are the top artificial intelligence, responsible for the integrated operation of the Wizard Tower, integrating terminal computing, data recording, combat command, experimental assistants, etc.

Generally speaking, a wizard tower must have at least one tower spirit.

But if the budget is sufficient, the more towers the better.

The computing power of a single tower spirit is limited. Sometimes two or three large tasks will occupy the entire computing power of the tower spirit.

The greater the number of tower spirits, the smoother and more generous the operation of the wizard tower will be.

Generally speaking, it is best to arrange three tower spirits in the wizard tower, who are responsible for the combat command system, daily operations and experimental assistants of the wizard tower.

The tower spirit construct, which is more advanced than the tower spirit, can even turn into an entity to assist the wizard in fighting.

To make a tower spirit, you need to use legendary level soul crystals.

This is not a problem for Sunan, since it can be synthesized through micro soul crystals.

In the previous war to conquer the underground world, he accumulated a large number of soul crystals, which was more than enough to synthesize several legendary soul crystals.

"Now that we have accumulated a lot of various materials, it is time to start building the wizard tower."

Su Nan reached out and touched it, and a panoramic three-dimensional model of Long Lin instantly appeared in the void.

Looking over the model, he began to pick a place to build it.

Considering the charging problem of the clay golem and the transportation of materials, the best place to build the wizard tower is in the Dragon Forest.

The space passages throughout the underground world and the Starry Empire can transport various materials to Dragon Forest at any time.

In the end, Sunan chose a wide woodland in District 2 for the construction site.

Area 2 is a vast area, with the high-level sub-dragon racial group and the large magic plant garden occupying less than half, and the rest is vacant and can be put to good use.

"No. 1, establish the task of 'Building the Wizard Tower'."

Sunan gave the order.

[Start entering the wizard tower design drawing. The entry is successful. 】

[The task of ‘Building the Wizard Tower’ has been created. 】

[Please set the labor quantity. 】

"A thousand clay golems." Sunan thought for a while and said.

This number of clay golems is enough, but any more will slow down the efficiency.

Moreover, so many clay golems are only used when building the base and body of the tower at the beginning. When the internal space is actually built, the labor of clay golems required will be relatively small, and a hundred clay golems are almost enough.

Most of the layout and facilities inside the wizard tower can only be done by the wizard himself.

After all, clay golems cannot draw runes and magic circles.

This is the main reason why it often takes hundreds of years to build a wizard tower.

Of course, you can also hire other wizards to help, or purchase facilities such as floating rings, spell turrets, and golem legions from other channels, thus greatly shortening the construction time.

It's just that not many wizards do this.

The wizard tower is the core secret of wizards. Few wizards will let others intervene in the construction of the wizard tower. If someone is left behind, they may suffer big losses one day.

Wizards would rather build the wizard tower slowly by themselves, bit by bit, than do it by others.

The construction of the tower base and tower body is relatively simple. Just leave it to Butler No. 1. Sunan only needs to pay attention to the progress occasionally.

After assigning the task, he left the Dragon Skeleton Tower and returned to Youhu City.

Red Widow sent a message three days ago, saying that the Russell family had been captured and were being escorted to Youhu City.

Since the situation in the cities captured by the Starry Empire in the northwest region has not been completely stabilized, no space passages have been built, and many journeys can only be carried out by flying puppets, which takes a while.

Calculating the time, it was almost time for them to arrive at Youhu City.

Sure enough, as soon as he returned to Base 2 in Youhu City, the Red Widow came to report to him.

"Master, the four third-level wizard apprentices of the Russell family, including the current patriarch Facardo Russell, are currently in the living room, guarded by Secret Puppet No. 1 and No. 2."

The Red Widow stood in front of the desk respectfully, with a slight bow, without the slightest hint of casualness or frivolity in front of others.

Occasionally, there would be a flash of fiery charm in the eyes he looked at Sunan.

"Good job." Su Nan praised.

The Red Widow looked happy and glanced at Carolina next to her without any trace.

The latter's expression remained unchanged, but the hands placed in front of his abdomen tightened slightly.

Not paying attention to the small movements of the two subordinates, Sunan walked straight outside.

In the living room.

The four wizard apprentices of the Russell family were sitting on the sofa, feeling quite restless, turning their heads to look at the door of the hall from time to time.

Two marionette girls stood on both sides of the door with indifferent expressions, like door gods.

Faka glanced at them one more time, his eyes a little complicated.

On the way being escorted, it was not that he had never thought of escaping, but on the one hand he could not escape from the two marionette girls, and on the other hand he felt that escaping was useless.

The entire Starlight Continent is about to fall into the hands of the Star Empire and the Star Alliance. Even if he escapes to the ends of the earth, he cannot escape from their sphere of influence.

Although it's not impossible to find a place to hide, you can't live a secluded life from now on, right?

Let’s not talk about whether he can adapt. Even if he can adapt, it will be difficult for him to continue to improve his strength in the future due to lack of resource supply.

Do you just want to give up on becoming a wizard?

It was harder for Facardo to accept this than death.

"Clan leader, why do you think that person wants to see us?"

A voice interrupted Facardo's contemplation.

He turned around and saw that the person speaking was Innocent Russell, the strongest third-level wizard apprentice in the family besides him.

Innocent was injured in the previous battle and had not yet recovered, and his face was a little pale.

"I can't understand either." Facardo shook his head.

But in fact, he had a vague guess.

If there is anything else about the Russell family that can arouse the interest of a formal wizard, after thinking about it, there is only one.

But where did the other party know this secret?

But in the entire Russell family, only the patriarch knows this secret.

Apart from this, not to mention outsiders, even members of the family know nothing about it.

Just when he was confused, Fakado suddenly felt something was wrong. He turned around and saw that someone had appeared in the hall at some point.

A young man who looked to be in his early twenties at most.

His appearance can be called handsome, but what is more eye-catching is the pair of eyes, which are as deep and dim as the starry sky. Just looking at each other gives the illusion that their souls are being sucked in.

Almost instantly, Facardo understood the identity of the person in front of him.

The controller of the Star Alliance!

The only wizard in Starlight Continent for thousands of years!

Sunan Arneste!
