Chapter 214 Developing the Basic Market
“Meow, Sunan!”
Amy’s perception was as sharp as ever, and she immediately sensed Sunan’s arrival.
The little guy disappeared instantly, and when he reappeared, he was already on Sunan's shoulder.
"Meow, have you gone to the wizard tower again?" Amy asked as she licked her paws.
Su Nan smiled and said: "The elemental pool was just activated today. The energy there is more abundant than the dragon skeleton tower. You and the hidden dragon can rest there in the future."
The hidden dragon came over Hearing this, he immediately screamed excitedly.
After evolving into a giant dragon, it suddenly became very sensitive to the concentration of energy particles, and especially couldn't bear to stay outside. Now it basically doesn't leave the dragon forest.
When Sunan was not using the control center, he would come and stay near the elemental pool, just to enjoy the high-concentration energy particle environment for a while.
Now that I heard that there are places with higher concentrations of energy particles, I am naturally very happy.
Amy, on the other hand, does not have high requirements for energy particle concentration. After all, its power level is far from reaching the upper limit of energy particle concentration in Starlight Continent.
Having said that, Amy was also very happy.
"Okay, I can finally live in the wizard tower, meow!"
Before sleeping, it had been living in the wizard tower, and I missed the living environment at that time.
Although the environment of Dragon Forest is also good, it is not as good as the Wizard Tower after all.
Su Nan also became interested and asked about Master Amy’s wizard tower.
"Master's wizard tower?"
"I remember it seemed to be a large wizard tower, it was very big and spacious inside!"
As expected of a true spiritual descendant, the wizard tower All are large.
Suddenly, Su Nan suddenly remembered something and asked: "What level of wizard is your master?"
"Meow, the master is a third-level wizard."
"But before I went to bed, the master seemed to be sprinting to be promoted to a true spirit wizard, meow."
A true spirit wizard!
Su Nan sighed secretly.
Due to their genetic inheritance, the chance of being promoted to a True Spirit Wizard is naturally far higher than that of ordinary wizards. In addition, with a strong background, no shortage of resources, and guidance from family elders, there are usually two or three out of ten. One can be promoted to a true spirit wizard.
Although this number is not high, it is actually an exaggeration.
For ordinary wizards, not one out of a thousand may be promoted to a true spirit wizard.
More than a thousand years have passed, Master Amy may have been promoted to a true spirit wizard.
“I want to go to the Wizard Tower to see it!”
Amy is a child at heart, so she pulled Hidden Dragon towards the Wizard Tower without a few words.
Su Nan laughed and shook his head, then thought about teleporting to the laboratory.
With the assistance of Talling No. 1, the next research on the talent crystal model should be much smoother. He can try to refer to more documents to increase inspiration.
As for the type of the second talent crystal model, Sunan has already made a decision.
The first talent model ‘Liquid Metal’ is of both offensive and defensive type.
Then for the second and third talent models, it is best to have one extreme defense and one extreme attack.
Su Nan now has many attack methods, so the second talent crystal model gives priority to the defensive type.
As for the original model, he thought over and over again and finally chose the Witch Weapon [Forbidden Zone].
The invisible force field of [Forbidden Zone] can not only defend against attacks in all directions without blind spots, but also cause gravity suppression on approaching enemies - weakening the enemy is not another form of defense?
Limited by the materials, the power of [Forbidden Zone] can only go so far.
But if the improvement is transformed into a talent crystal model, the power can be further expanded and strengthened.
Su Nan is looking forward to the final product.
Time flies, like quicksand on the fingertips, slipping away quietly.
Astrological calendar year 1291, the new moon (May).
Ten years have passed since the Starry Empire unified the continent.
The wounds caused by the war have long been repaired, and people have returned to their former peaceful lives.
Under the emperor's determined reforms, the entire empire was thriving and developing.
The feelings of the people living at the bottom are most obvious. Their lives are happier than before, making them support the empire's rule from the bottom of their hearts.
In the eyes of some caring people, what they feel most deeply is that the number of knights they see in life has increased.
In the past, even if knights were not nobles, they were followers of nobles, and their status was much nobler than that of ordinary people.
But now there are many knights from civilian backgrounds.
In the military, this change is even more obvious.
In the past, a trainee knight with outstanding strength could serve as an officer, but now, even the lowest junior officer must be a knight.
Knights are becoming more and more common.
If the findings of thoughtful people are just vague guesses, then the report before Sunan is written with detailed data.
In the past four years, knight academies across the empire have graduated more than 20,000 knight students.
There are hundreds of thousands of trainee knight-level students.
If you include the seven knight academies under the Star Alliance and the more than ten royal knight academies in the empire, the number of knight students is approaching 40,000.
——The seven knight academies under the Star Alliance alone have graduated more than 10,000 knight students in four years.
In the past, this was simply unimaginable.
But now, it is a very common thing.
In fact, if most of the dragon blood fruits and dragon blood potions of the Star Alliance were not used to supply the Demon Pattern Knights, the seven knight academies and the royal knight academies, only a small amount would be supplied to the ordinary knight academies, and the number of knights trained every year would still be small. It can be doubled again.
Withdrawing his gaze, Sunan turned to look at another report.
The report was written by Qiangwei, and the content was about a new fruit-type magic plant she recently developed.
This kind of magic plant has the effect of strengthening the physical constitution, but the effect is much weaker than that of the dragon blood fruit, about one-fifth of the dragon blood fruit.
To be honest, it is a bit reluctant to call this a magic plant.
However, the effect is weak. This kind of fruit does not have high requirements for the growth environment.
It can be cultivated and grown even in the current environment of Starlight Continent, without the need to arrange energy-gathering arrays.
In Sunan’s view, the most valuable thing is this.
This means that this kind of fruit does not need to be planted in the magic plant garden, even ordinary people can plant it.
If this fruit can be vigorously promoted and popularized in the empire, the problem of insufficient dragon blood fruits and dragon blood potions can be reduced to a certain extent.
Without hesitation, Sunan directly wrote down the report and forwarded it to the emperor for approval, suggesting vigorously promoting planting, and immediately gave Qiangwei a large amount of contribution value as a reward.
It is worth mentioning that Rose named this fruit star fruit. The significance of star fruit is self-evident.
With the Star Fruit, the Star Empire can cultivate more knights.
Su Nan never thought that he could only focus on improving his own strength or only focus on the development of the Star Alliance.
Although this kind of behavior can yield relatively generous returns in the short term, it is very short-sighted in the long term.
Starlight Continent is his basic base.
Strengthening and developing the basic base is also increasing his foundation. With a strong enough foundation, he can go further in the future.
That’s why he spared no effort to support Key’s reforms.
The popularization of basic education, the establishment of knight colleges, and more reform policies are all subtly enhancing the strength of Starlight Continent.
The more powerful Starlight Continent is, the greater the benefits he can get from it as the actual controller.
“It’s a pity that there are no magic stone veins on the mainland. Otherwise, we can develop magic technology and improve the basic technology level.”
Magic technology refers to the technology developed using magic stones as energy. Applied technology includes magic stone lamps, magic carriages, magic spaceships, magic weapons, and a series of machines used in civilian and military fields.
The two prerequisites for the development of magic technology are rich magic stone veins and a strong wizard civilization (with enough wizard apprentices and formal wizards).
The current Starlight Continent does not have these two prerequisites.
The latter can also be achieved gradually over time.
But the former cannot be achieved unless the elements are revived and restored and accumulated over a long period of time.
As for using the Rubik's Cube to synthesize magic stones, Su Nan had never thought about it.
Once magic technology is promoted, given the size of Starlight Continent, the number of magic stones required will be an astronomical number, which is definitely not something he can satisfy alone.
After approving the documents, Su Nan stretched himself and left the study.
The place where he is now is the wizard's tower which is still under construction.
Since the elemental pool was opened, whether he practices, studies or handles affairs, he has always done it in the wizard tower.
Compared to the Dragon Skeleton Tower, the concentration of energy particles here is more comfortable.
The space planning of the Wizard Tower is still being improved, and the current progress is only about one-third.
It is worth mentioning that during this period, Sunan tried to build another element pool, and then synthesized it with the original element pool.
As a result, the effects of all aspects of the synthesized element pool increased by about 1.2 times, which surprised him quite a bit.
"From this perspective, four to five small element pools should be able to synthesize an element pool with similar effects to a medium-sized element pool."
While thinking, Sunan had already arrived at the experimental area .
There are more than two hundred laboratories in the huge experimental area, each of which must be equipped with a magic circle to prevent accidental energy bursts from the experiment from destroying the laboratory and spreading to other areas.
This work alone cannot be completed in seven or eight months.
And this is just one aspect of space planning.
“There is a long way to go.”
By the time Sunan finished his work, it was already evening.
Looking at the sky outside, he suddenly had the idea of eating.
Since being promoted to wizard, Sunan has basically eliminated eating.
Even if he does not eat any food for decades or hundreds of years, he will not feel hungry.
Just by absorbing free energy particles in the air, it can already maintain life needs.
However, although it is not necessary, Sunan still tastes delicious food occasionally.
It is one of the few pleasures he has now.
Of course, what caught his eye were the delicacies made with rare materials and containing special effects on the daily recommended menus in the Starlight Academy and Dragon Skeleton Tower cafeterias.
For this reason, Carolina specially prepared a private box for him in the Dragon Skeleton Tower cafeteria.
As usual, not long after Sunan entered the box and sat down, Carolina walked in dragging her tail, followed by a group of water elves carrying dinner plates.
When the water elves put down their plates and opened the lid, a rich aroma that made people salivate immediately floated out, filling every inch of the room.
Su Nan’s eyes fell on one of the dinner plates, and his expression moved slightly.
"Is this the King Shrimp?"
"Yes, Master." Carolina smiled.
She knew that the origin of the dishes would not be difficult for the knowledgeable host.
Emperor shrimp is a ferocious marine creature that can reach a maximum length of more than five meters. It has strong and sharp claws, a wide range of diets, few natural enemies, thin and powerful lower limbs, and good fighting prowess.
In the ocean, even junior knights would not dare to face an emperor shrimp head-on.
As far as Sunan knows, the emperor shrimp is a deep-sea creature, and it seems that this creature can only be found in the Rainbow Sea.
He glanced at the other dishes.
As expected, colorful scallops, rainbow clams, coral fish, and dragon whale meat are all specialties of the Rainbow Sea.
The Rainbow Sea is extremely rich in product resources. It has the largest coral reef in the world and is rich in all kinds of delicious seafood and fish.
Carolina arranged a seafood dinner from the Rainbow Sea for him today.
Su Nan smiled, waved his hand to ask the water elves to retreat, and then motioned for Carolina to sit down.
“Let’s chat while we eat.”
Carolina was slightly startled, followed by Daxi, suppressing the surprise in her heart and carefully moved to her seat, and wrapped her tail around the chair Above, sitting on the left side of Sunan's lower head.
Su Nan tasted a few bites of the king shrimp meat, nodded with satisfaction, and then got to the point.
“How is the exploration of Rainbow Sea going?”
Carolina replied respectfully: “At present, five city-states have been built in Rainbow Bay, and land reclamation is also in progress. Three islands were built as a transfer station for deep-sea exploration and bay city-states. However, the progress was somewhat slow due to the interference of deep-sea naga, sirens and sea monsters.”
At this point, Carolina glanced at Sunan cautiously, and saw that he was tasting the food slowly, with no dissatisfaction on his face. She breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
"I've already added more food." The army went to Rainbow Bay and issued a mission to Starlight Academy to order magic ships that can sail on the sea and special puppets that can move underwater. In addition, Lord Sherman and Lord Corey are also preparing to lead the team to the Rainbow Sea. With them With the help of the two of you, I believe that the exploration operation will soon have a breakthrough. "
The deep sea is the territory of marine groups and sea monsters. No matter how strong and powerful the ship is, it is no match for these creatures at sea.
So humans can only roam on land, and no country has ever tried to get involved in the Rainbow Sea.
As strong as the Star Alliance, they have also encountered a lot of difficulties and resistance in the process of exploring the Rainbow Sea. So far, they can only wander around the periphery of the Rainbow Sea.
However, Carolina believes that as long as the Star Alliance invests more resources, it will definitely be able to solve the current predicament of the Rainbow Sea.
As she prepared this banquet today, she might not have taken this opportunity to make a request to the host.
I believe the owner can also see this.
Sure enough, after listening to her words, Su Nan glanced at her with a half-smile and said:
"I will let the academy cooperate with you, and the resources of the Star Alliance will be at your disposal. The only requirement for the transfer is to open up the situation in Rainbow Sea as soon as possible.”
There are only about four years left before the opening of Starfall City. Before that, a certain amount of power must be deployed in the Rainbow Sea.
Maybe it will be useful when we look for Falling Star City.
