The Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 96 Wedding

Time flies and it enters the Moon of Flowing Fire (July) in a blink of an eye.

This is the day when the sun walks on the earth.

In the Cangjin Empire, this is also the day when the annual Fire Festival is held.

In the Principality of Stars, although there are still two months until the harvest celebration, the people have gradually become somewhat cheerful.

The Jinyan Province is no exception, and it was even enveloped in a cheerful and lively atmosphere earlier than other provinces.

Just because the Marquis of Jinyan Province is about to get married!

As soon as this gratifying news came out from the Lord's Mansion, it quickly spread throughout the entire Jinyan Province like a hurricane.

Sunan, who was immersed in studying and practicing, became one of the last people to know about it.

"In other words, eldest brother's wedding is scheduled for the harvest celebration day."

In the meeting hall, Sunan, who had just learned the news, looked surprised.

"That's right." Keyi said with a smile on his face, "Having fun with the people, what do you think?"

".fine."

It sounds awkward to hear the word "living with the people" from a nobleman.

"Who is the bride?"

"The youngest daughter of the Marquis of the White Tower."

Marriage?

It seems that Key is gradually expanding his interpersonal network.

"I will attend on time on the wedding day." Su Nan said.

After saying this, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Keyi with a smile.

"Don't worry, I have something else I want to talk to you about."

Sunan had no choice but to sit down again: "What's the matter?"

"You are twenty years old this year. Is it time to consider starting a family?"

Su Nan was stunned for a while, and then shook his head with a dumb smile.

For a wizard apprentice who aspires to become a wizard, marriage is such a distant thing.

"I have no plans for the moment."

"Don't think about it anymore? Many nobles come to me and want to marry their daughters and nieces to you, and there are many beauties among them."

"No need." Sunan refused without hesitation.

Compared with wizard apprentices, the life span of ordinary people is too short.

Even a legendary knight's lifespan is at most half that of a third-level wizard apprentice.

If he were to marry an ordinary person as his wife, he would probably end up watching her die before his eyes.

It's not a good thing either for him or for the woman who becomes his wife.

Besides, he has no intention of starting a family now.

Cultivation, study and farming development take up almost all of his energy, and there is no extra thought for other aspects.

"By the way, I have chosen the location of the new magic plant garden, and I will leave the construction to you."

Sunan waved her hands and walked out of the hall without looking back.

Watching him leave, Key shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that the responsibility for the expansion of the family can only be borne by me."

The construction of a single magic plant garden is much simpler than that of a base.

By the Moon of Scrolls (August), the basic construction of the Magic Plant Garden has been completed.

Sunan named it No. 2 Magic Plant Garden.

As for the one in the base, it is naturally called the No. 1 Magic Plant Garden.

In addition to Dragon Blood Fruit and Silver Moon Flower in the No. 2 Magic Plant Garden, Sunan has also designated a third of the area for planting datura grass, golden thorn grass, Ningshen flower and other magic plants.

These are commonly used materials for making low-level potions.

Standing at the entrance of the Magic Plant Garden, looking at the fields of flowers blooming and smelling the sweet fragrance of flowers in the air, Su Nan had a satisfied smile on his face.

When the Silver Moon Flower here matures, he can synthesize a third-level mid-grade transcendent potion.

At that time, the efficiency of meditation can be further improved.

As for the third-level high-grade transcendent potion, there are restrictions that the mental power must reach 34 points and the physical fitness must reach 25 points before it can be taken.

He probably wouldn't be able to take it before he constructed the eleventh star ring.

There are also dragon blood fruits, which can also be used to strengthen physical fitness and reach the level of a junior knight as soon as possible.

"Sunan!"

At this time, a warm female voice came from the sea of ​​flowers, and more than a dozen stunning little beauties, only one foot tall, flew out from the flowers with colorful wings.

These little people are only about thirty centimeters tall. They wear exquisite long skirts of various colors, with bows on their chests and colorful wings on their backs. They are slender and graceful. They wear long boots on their small white legs, making them look very beautiful.

"I want to drink rose water."

"I want honey. Yesterday's honey was so delicious."

"Hurry up."

Seven or eight little people were flying up and down around Sunan, and their charming laughter could not be heard.

The leader also wore a flower crown on his head.

The beauty of her appearance stands out even among all the beautiful little people.

These little people are alien creatures that Su Nan recently summoned.

It's a fairy-like creature called a flower fairy.

Like flower elves, they have little combat power, but are very good at taking care of magic plants—in fact, most fairy creatures are very good at taking care of magic plants.

Some fairy creatures who have mastered spell-like abilities similar to plant auras are the magic plant managers that many wizards (apprentices) dream of.

It is worth mentioning that flower fairies do not like to tease people as much as flower spirits do.

On the contrary, they are very close to people who look at each other.

The one wearing the crown is the Flower Fairy Queen, named Tia.

In fact, it was Tiya who was summoned by Sunan at the beginning. After tasting the flower dew and honey synthesized by Sunan, the flower fairy queen immediately agreed to Sunan's recruitment and managed the magic plant garden for him.

And later he took the initiative to summon more flower fairies.

As a reward for guarding the magic plant garden, Sunan only needs to provide them with enough flower dew and honey every month, which can be called a cheap and useful helper.

"Tiya, how are you today?"

Sunan took out the flower dew and honey and handed them to the flower fairies, then stretched out his palm and let Tiya fall into his palm.

"Everything is fine." Tiya smiled sweetly, "It's just that the datura grasses are a bit noisy and keep screaming. I just need to teach them a lesson."

"By the way, two apprentices came over this morning. I played hide and seek with them. Hehe, they couldn't find me."

Nature has given flower fairies the magical ability to protect themselves. As long as they hide in the sea of ​​flowers, it is difficult for even formal wizards to discover them.

Tiya rambled about what happened today to Sunan, and from time to time she let out a series of crisp laughter like silver bells.

Sunan listened patiently and interjected from time to time.

If nothing else goes wrong, the main manager of the magic plant garden to be opened in the future will be the flower fairy.

The Flower Fairy Queen has the ability to summon tribesmen. In the future, whenever necessary, she can ask Tia to summon new tribesmen.

From now on, Sunan no longer needs to worry about the lack of manpower in the Magic Plant Garden.

However, most things can be left to the flower fairy, and some work still has to be completed by the apprentice.

The third round of qualification testing held by Jinyan Province ended as early as last month.

Compared to the first and second rounds, the third round is larger.

As a result, as many as eighteen boys and girls finally passed the qualification test.

Now, there are as many as thirty-three students in the entire base.

Nearly half of them have already started using the Star Ring Meditation method.

Three people like Sherman, Corey and Atil have already constructed the second star ring and successfully mastered three to four zero-ring spells.

In addition, Sherman and Atil have successfully produced the zero-level potion.

To describe it in terms of data, both of them have reached level 1 in their [Pharmacion Making] skills.

Kore has already mastered the [Puppet Refining] skill.

Thanks to this, Sunan no longer has to waste energy on making low-level potions and refining black rock leopards.

Both tasks were handed over to three students. The three Shermans now basically only take on the tasks of making potions and refining puppets.

Tasks such as taking care of the magic plants, cleaning the laboratory, and maintaining the golems were left to other newcomers.

"When more people learn how to make potions, we can expand the scale of potion sales."

Profitable business must continue and be gradually expanded.

After all, as Sunan's strength improves, there are more and more places where it needs to spend money.

Not to mention anything else, more than three thousand gold coins were spent on researching substitutes for the magic pattern core materials during this period of time.

Fortunately, no money was wasted, and three alternatives were finally successfully synthesized.

Now there are only twenty-one rare metals left to gather the materials to refine the magic pattern core.

The mountains and forests are particularly quiet late at night.

A group of men wearing leather armor walked through the mountain forest through the dim starlight.

The sound of the vibrating wings of insects came to my ears, like a nocturne intertwined.

The group of people marched in silence, the rustling footsteps passing through bushes one after another. The cold late night air and dead silence made people tense up.

After walking for a while, someone finally couldn't hold it any longer and asked in a low voice to the person leading the way: "Fredery, how far is it?"

"Soon." Frederic said without looking back.

"You said that half an hour ago, how far do you have to go?" The speaker said with uncontrollable anxiety in his tone, "You're not lying to us, are you?"

Frederic looked back at him and said coldly: "If you don't believe me, you can turn around and leave now."

"you"

"Okay, stop arguing!" An older man interrupted the two of them, "Be careful of making too much noise to attract wild beasts. There are often black wolves here at night."

The big man has a high prestige among these people. As soon as he opens his mouth, the person who just complained immediately shut up.

Frederic glanced at the big man and said in a low voice: "I have already seen the mark left before. If we walk another seven or eight hundred meters, we will reach the cave I found."

After hearing this, everyone suddenly became energetic and quickly quickened their pace.

Not long after, the vision suddenly opened up, and a clearing appeared in the field of vision, with a steep mountain wall at the end.

At the bottom of the mountain wall is a dark cave entrance.

In the dark night, the entrance of the cave is like a big mouth that wants to devour people, waiting for uninvited guests to break in. It looks a bit scary.

However, everyone was not afraid at all. Instead, they looked at the entrance of the cave with particularly fiery eyes and their faces were full of excitement.

"Fredre, did you find those silver ingots in this cave?" the big man asked in a deep voice.

Frederic nodded heavily: "Yes, I saw with my own eyes a silver vein deep in the cave."

Everyone looked more and more excited.

A silver ore vein, even a very small shallow silver vein, could dig out enough silver ingots to make them rich overnight.

If the reserves were larger, they might not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

"Go, go in!"

The big man suppressed the excitement in his heart and led everyone into the cave.

Someone in front of and behind the team consciously lit torches, and the bright firelight illuminated the scene in the cave.

The big man looked at the cave wall and frowned in confusion.

This cave is full of traces of manual excavation, and the traces are quite new. Combined with the silver veins inside, it should be a mine that was just excavated not long ago.

But if that's the case, why didn't I see a single person here?

Moreover, he had inquired in the city and found that no one had ever mined in this forest.

The big man was inexplicably uneasy and began to consider whether to retreat and come back after investigating clearly.

At this moment, a low cry suddenly came from my ears.

"It's a vein of silver!"

The big man subconsciously looked up and saw a dull silvery gray on the cave wall suddenly coming into view.

His heart suddenly started beating rapidly.

The desire for silver ingots instantly overcame the uneasiness deep in his heart.

Without any further hesitation, the big man immediately took off the iron pickaxe from his waist and said excitedly:

"Mining!"

Everyone had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and they couldn't wait to take action after hearing it.

"Haha, I'm rich!"

"After this job is done, I can rest for several years!"

"This cave seems to be quite deep. If you go inside, there might be other mineral veins."

"That's right. Let's go check it out later."

A group of people were discussing excitedly.

At this moment, some strange noises suddenly came from deep in the cave.

Although he was in a state of excitement, his rich adventure experience made the big man immediately notice that something was wrong.

"Quiet!"

"There seems to be something in the cave, everyone, please be careful!"

Everyone immediately put down their pickaxes, drew out their weapons, and stared warily into the darkness deep in the cave.

"Squeak!"

In their horrified eyes, a group of mice as big as cats rushed out of the darkness.

"What's this?"

"mouse?"

"How can such a big rat deserve to die? These monsters are so fast, I was bitten!"

The eyes of these rats that appeared suddenly were slightly red, like crazy beasts, attacking everyone crazily with sharp fangs and sharp claws.

What's even more frightening is that they move extremely quickly and are numerous in number.

In the cave with limited space, it was difficult for everyone to dodge, and they were quickly injured one after another.

"Calm down and defend back to back!"

The big man slashed a giant rat in half with his sword and shouted loudly.

The next second, a dull whistling sound suddenly sounded from behind.

Before the big man could turn around, he was thrown to the ground by a huge figure rushing from behind.

"Captain!" someone exclaimed.

By the swaying light of the fire, everyone quickly saw that the person who knocked down the big man was a fat and thick monster.

It has a toad-like head, dark red skin, no eyes, and extremely thick limbs.

"Grrrrrr!"

The toad monster opened its **** mouth, bit off the big man's head, chewed it a few times, swallowed it, and then jumped towards the others.

"ah!"

The big man's death sent the team into complete panic.

Everyone lost their will to fight and scrambled to escape towards the cave entrance.

Unfortunately, he didn't run far before he was knocked down by the toad monsters and rats chasing after him one after another.

Frederic, who was the fastest, reached the cave entrance first.

Seeing that he was about to escape, he couldn't help showing an ecstatic expression on his face.

But the next moment, a slimy tongue suddenly shot out from behind, wrapped around his waist, and pulled him back forcefully.

"ah!"

The short screams stopped abruptly, followed by the numbing sound of chewing.

"Crunch!"

Not long after, the sound disappeared, and the dark cave returned to a dead silence.
