The Synthesis Wizard

"After being promoted to a second-level wizard, the limitations of the Starlight Continent environment will become more obvious, right?"

After regaining her composure, Lize brought up another topic.

"Indeed." Su Nan sighed slightly.

After being promoted to a second-level wizard, Sunan discovered that the impact of lack of energy on condensing the spirit was more serious than imagined.

I originally thought that I could at least break through to the second level of crystallization before the plane barrier was completely repaired.

But now it seems that unless the number of wizards in the Star Alliance skyrockets in the future and there are more tools to collect elemental crystal dust, it may be difficult.

In addition, there is the issue of environmental adaptability.

Even though he was in the wizard tower now, he felt a sense of discomfort.

Obviously, as the essence of life evolves, his soul and body have higher requirements for the concentration of energy particles.

If you continue to improve like this, once you become a true spirit wizard, you may not be able to adapt even if the concentration of energy particles in Starlight Continent returns to normal.

Perhaps this is why true spirit wizards are keen on building floating cities and demiplanes.

They need an environment with a higher concentration of energy particles!

After chatting for a while, Sunan got down to business.

"Do you have any knowledge of the craftsmanship of the alchemical body?"

"Do you want to engrave an alchemical seal?"

Lize glanced at Sunan in surprise, then nodded in understanding.

"You are now a level two wizard. Your mental strength must meet the standards for an alchemical body. It is not difficult for you to strengthen your physique. You can try to transform into an alchemical body."

"But the problem is that most of the materials needed to transform the alchemical body are very precious, and I am afraid that they are not available in Starlight Continent now."

Su Nan waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. Give me your craft knowledge and I will take care of the materials myself."

If the transformed alchemical body can also be synthesized using a Rubik's Cube, then materials will not be a problem.

The worst case scenario is just like the engraved gems and talent crystal models, first create a low-level copycat version with weak effects, and then synthesize a high-level version with the same effect as the original version.

If it cannot be synthesized, then we can only research alternatives.

Seeing what Sunan said, Lize stopped trying to persuade her.

Past experience told her not to question any of Sunan's words.

Problems that seem difficult to solve in his own eyes can often be solved easily in Sunan's hands.

If you raise questions at this time, you are likely to be slapped in the face later.

"There is a lot of technical knowledge about alchemical body and alchemical engraving. I will give it to you after I copy it down."

Speaking of this, Liz suddenly remembered something.

"I almost forgot to tell you. There is news from the royal family. When you come out of seclusion, I hope you can go to the palace to see His Majesty Keyi."

Sunan was startled when he heard this and frowned.

If Key wanted to see him, he could come directly or send a verbal message. Why should he send a message in the name of the royal family?

He looked at Lize, who understood what he meant and said solemnly: "Two months ago, His Majesty Key fell seriously ill and is still bedridden."

Time is the most ruthless and terrifying weapon.

Even a powerful wizard like the True Spirit cannot withstand the passage of time, and one day his life will end.

Not to mention a little blood knight.

As a blood knight fused with the blood of the sub-dragon race, Key also inherited some of the characteristics of the long lifespan of the dragon race.

In addition, as the lord of the empire, you have taken countless life-extending treasures, including the extremely precious resource of Dawn Potion.

Because of this, his life span is longer than that of many third-level wizard apprentices.

But even so, after reaching the age of 200, the emperor's body inevitably went downhill.

Over the next few years, Key's health deteriorated and he was plagued by illness.

Two months ago, I suddenly fell seriously ill. I couldn't afford to be ill and stayed on the bed.

Thanks to this, everyone in the Starry Empire was in panic.

Fortunately, with the Star Alliance on top, and the First Prince Abbott, who has been designated as the successor by His Majesty the Emperor, taking over the responsibility of supervising the country, there is no need to worry about something unspeakable happening.

When they learned that Sunan had entered the palace, all the important members of the royal family, including Prince Abbott and Hailin, gathered in the emperor's palace to wait.

Except for a few core members of the royal family, such as Prince Abbott, who stayed in the palace, the rest were waiting in the courtyard.

However, just when these people were eagerly looking forward to taking advantage of this opportunity to meet and become familiar with the big man who controlled the highest power in Starlight Continent behind the scenes and was more noble than His Majesty the Emperor, the person involved was already silent. appeared in the palace.

As a second-level wizard apprentice, Hailin noticed something strange immediately. He turned around and found a figure beside him.

He was startled at first, and subconsciously wanted to take action, but soon saw the other party's face clearly, stopped his movements quickly, and bowed respectfully.

"Master uncle!"

The others turned around when they heard the voice, and when they saw it was Sunan, they all expressed surprise and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Su Nan waved his hands with a calm expression to stop everyone's noise. He took a step forward and in a flash, he was already in front of the bed.

On the large and luxurious bed, Keyi closed his eyes and lay motionless, with a sick look visible to the naked eye on his face.

Compared with the last time we met, Key became older and more haggard.

In fact, Sunan and Keyi have seen each other less and less over the years.

Both sides were troubled rulers.

Especially in the past twenty years or so, Sunan has been busy trying to become a second-level wizard, and he and Keyi only see each other every few years.

At this time, looking at Keyi on the bed with his white hair and wrinkled face, showing his old appearance, Sunan couldn't help but look a little dazed.

The scene where the two brothers worked together to lead Black Rock City against Baron Owen seemed like it happened yesterday.

Time flies so fast.

Everyone around him said nothing and stood quietly, fearing to disturb Sunan by making any noise.

Just looking at Sunan, who looked the same as he had for decades, still as young as a young man in his twenties, and looking at the senile Emperor on the bed, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity.

It’s hard to imagine that these two are only three years apart!

Is this the power of a wizard?

"Cough cough cough"

A cough suddenly broke the silence in the palace.

Key woke up and opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Sunan standing beside the bed, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Su Nan, you... ahem, when did you come?"

"I just came here not long ago."

Sunan stepped forward, helped Keyi sit up, and at the same time injected the most healing plant energy particles into his body.

With the injection of plant energy particles, Key's complexion suddenly became rosier and he no longer coughed.

But Sunan knew very well that this was just a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution.

Key was not injured, but was at the end of his life. Even if he was a second-level wizard, he could not let a person who was on the verge of ending his life span defeat death.

Unless the other party is a wizard (apprentice), maybe there is still a possibility. "You guys go down."

Key glanced at the crowd in the palace and waved.

Even if they were already at the end of their lives, no one dared to disobey His Majesty the Emperor. Everyone obeyed and bowed and resigned.

Soon, the dormitory became deserted, with only Sunan and Keyi left.

"I can feel that my life is coming to an end." Key said with a sigh.

Sunan stared at him steadily without comforting him, knowing that Keyi didn't need it either.

Sure enough, Key then grinned and said: "When my father was dying, he asked us brothers to revitalize the Arnest family. We did it, and we did it very well. Now the entire Starlight Continent belongs to our family!"

"The Arnest family is now the well-deserved first family, with glory all over the world."

A proud look appeared on Keyi's face, and then he looked at Sunan with bright eyes.

"But I know very well that this is all your credit. Without you, with my ability, I would have died in Black Rock City long ago, let alone revitalizing the family."

Sunan looked calm and said: "I am also a member of the Arnest family."

Key smiled and shook his head: "The long lifespan of wizards is destined to have a weak concept of family. Unless it is a wizard family like the Russell family, after I leave, the relationship between the descendants of the royal family and you will only become farther and farther away. ”

"Of course, I'm not complaining to you. This situation is unavoidable no matter what, even for two brothers from a commoner family, let alone a wizard."

"I just want to ask you one thing. I hope you can take more care of the royal family in the future and let the royal family have more wizard apprentices."

After unifying the continent, Key's only remaining wish is to train a few more wizard apprentices in the royal family so that the Arnest family can continue to be strong and prosperous.

Su Nan also knew this. Looking at his eldest brother's pleading eyes, he nodded solemnly.

"I promise you, the Arnest family will always be the imperial royal family in the future, and will also become a powerful wizard family."

After receiving Sunan's promise, Keyi's wrinkled face showed a relieved smile.

"That way I have nothing to regret."

"I have lived for two hundred years, which is longer than many wizard apprentices. I have also given birth to a lot of children and grandchildren, and I have expanded the branches of the Arnest family. I have nothing to be dissatisfied about."

As if he was relieved, fatigue swept over him again, and Key's eyelids began to grow heavy.

"I'm a little sleepy, I'll take another nap."

"Um."

Sunan helped Key lie down again and watched him slowly close his eyes.

Under his mental perception, the life breath in Keyi's body was like a burning flame, slowly weakening until it completely disappeared.

After standing quietly in front of the bed for a while, Sunan turned and left the palace.

In the courtyard, everyone was waiting quietly with different expressions.

It wasn't until he saw Sunan pushing the door open that there was a faint commotion, but it soon calmed down.

"Master uncle."

Hailin came up to him immediately, but hesitated to speak.

Su Nan glanced at him and shook his head slightly.

Seeing this, everyone's faces turned pale, and they still didn't understand what happened.

When they came to their senses again, Sunan had disappeared.

Everyone could no longer hold back and quickly rushed into the palace.

Soon, there were cries one after another inside.

Starlight calendar year 1422, the month of autumn (October).

The founding emperor of the Empire of Stars, Key Yaneste, passed away, and the whole country mourned.

In the Frost Moon (November) of the same year, the first snow fell, kicking off the most grand emperor's funeral in the history of Starlight Continent.

The solemn and solemn funeral ceremony, including funeral, funeral, procession and burial, lasted for two full months.

It wasn't until the new year that the funeral came to an end.

Starlight calendar year 1423, the month of Dongqin (January).

The eldest prince, Albert Arnest, ascended the throne and became the second emperor of the Empire of Stars.

In the same month, the grandest coronation celebration in the history of Starlight Continent was also held in the capital Glitter City.

Participants included tens of thousands of nobles and thousands of wizard apprentices.

These are the people who have been carefully selected and qualified to participate in the celebration, otherwise the number of participants would be even larger.

The celebration was held in the Palace Square.

In the seat where the wizard's apprentice was sitting, Sherman looked at the new emperor wearing a crown, wearing gorgeous clothes, and sitting on a throne made of gold and studded with gems, with a flash of emotion on his face.

Atil, who was sitting next to him, noticed Sherman's expression and said softly: "What's wrong? You look deeply moved?"

"It's nothing." Sherman shook his head, "I just feel more and more that life is too short. If we fail to break through the last hurdle, our lives will soon come to an end."

"Then a breakthrough would be great." Kore said without thinking.

As the key figures representing Sunan in the celebration, the three of them were arranged in front seats and sat together.

After hearing what Corey said, Sherman smiled and said nothing.

He is currently constructing a talent crystal model and has reached the stage of filling it with mental power.

But even so, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to cross the last step and be promoted to an official wizard.

Most third-level wizard apprentices feel something in their hearts during the last period of their lives.

He has also felt that his life will be more than ten years at most, not more than twenty years.

If he cannot complete the last step before then, what awaits him is turning into a piece of loess.

Despite his tenacity, Sherman occasionally felt uneasy.

In this case, he was very envious of Kore's steadfastness.

With his thoughts racing, Sherman quickly cheered up and said with a smile: "After this celebration is over, I will start retreating when I go back. I will never come out until I break through to the last step."

"Me too." A bright light flashed in Corey's eyes, "Whether we can break through depends on the last period of time."

"Your contribution is enough to exchange for the right to use the training room for ten or twenty years?"

"More than enough."

Looking at Sherman and Corey talking, a trace of confusion flashed in Atil's eyes.

Sherman and Corey at least had hope of a breakthrough, but she had no hope at all.

Ever since she became the teacher's disciple, her cultivation progress has been lagging behind Sherman and Corey.

Even now, Sherman and Corey are already working hard to replenish their mental power, while she has just begun to construct the talent crystal model.

Under such circumstances, it is extremely unlikely to be promoted to a wizard.

Even Master Xingyun said that it would be almost impossible for her to be promoted to wizard through normal means.

Atil was unwilling to give up, but he didn't know how to take his future path. (End of chapter)
