The sun shines on the blue sea, reflecting the sparkling waves.
Three huge metal ships broke through the waves and sailed against the wind on the sea, chasing a dragon whale.
In the Rainbow Sea, Dragon Whale is one of the powerful beings at the top of the food chain, but in front of three giant metal ships, it can only flee in panic.
Its huge body was covered with wounds caused by artillery fire, and blood flowed out from it, leaving bright red tracks in the sea water as it swam.
Chi!
A thick beam of light shot out like a sharp arrow, instantly passing through a distance of hundreds of meters and penetrating the dragon whale's head.
The body of this powerful sea monster trembled suddenly, setting off turbulent waves, and then floated motionless on the sea.
The sound of conches sounded, and a group of deep-sea naga emerged from the water, holding blades and began to dissect the dragon whale.
High in the sky, Tanner watched this scene with interest.
After knowing that he had no hope of leaving Starlight Continent in a short time, he was depressed for a few days and accepted the reality.
After that, the travel wizard's curiosity aroused, and he began to explore all over the continent. After visiting the surface world, he went to the underground world, and it was not until recently that he came to the Rainbow Sea.
What he saw during this period also gave Tanner a deeper understanding of the Covenant.
After learning about the conditions of the Starlight Continent in the past thousand years, he sincerely admired and marveled at Sunan's ability to single-handedly create the Star Alliance, a wizard force.
This is simply a miracle!
In a plane where resources are scarce and elemental deserts exist, it is extremely difficult to even be promoted to a wizard. It is simply incredible that Sunan can not only be promoted to a second-level wizard, but also create a qualified wizard force!
"I didn't expect that such a genius could be cultivated in an ordinary single plane!"
Tanner secretly lamented that the universe is full of wonders.
"The Star Alliance seems to be quite easy to talk to. Let's just practice here for a while and wait for the plane to recover before going out to explore."
You must have enough strength to explore the plane. It's important to be safe, otherwise once you accidentally enter a dangerous plane, your life will be easily lost.
Just take this opportunity to concentrate on improving your strength, and then explore to your heart’s content.
"It just so happens that the Covenant has enough tectonic potions and is willing to trade them with me."
Tectonic potions are not Tanner's strong point. In the past, he traded tectonic potions with various wizarding forces.
It’s just that the supply of structural potions exceeds the demand, and the wizarding forces are also very picky when trading. They are not as domineering as the Covenant. As long as they give valuable information, they can exchange them without limit.
Thinking about it this way, being trapped in the Starlight Continent doesn’t seem to be an unacceptable thing.
Wizard Tower, Workshop.
The slender silver needle floats out of thin air and slowly carves the final stroke on the surface of the gemstone at an exquisite angle.
As the strokes fell, the intricate lines on the surface of the gemstone instantly closed. After a flash of light, the whole gemstone suddenly gained an indescribable charm.
Looking at the successfully refined engraved gemstone, a smile appeared at the corner of Sunan's mouth.
It took more than a year of work on and off, and finally the improvements to the engraved gems were completed.
Due to the power limitations of the puppet itself, although the number of synthesized engraved gems has increased, the extent is not large, only increasing to sixty-three.
However, the power of the detonation is more than enough to kill a first-level wizard.
Even a second-level wizard will suffer heavy losses if he is not careful.
“Let’s call it a self-destruct gem.”
Su Nan immediately decided that all the puppets in the Witch Hunting Legion, as well as the wizard-level puppets in the Starlight Wizard Tower, must be equipped with self-destruction gems. gem.
Once you encounter a strong enemy that you can't beat, you can directly detonate the self-destruct gem in your body and die with the enemy. Even if it doesn't work, you have to take a bite, and you must not turn it into a battle loss in vain.
"The number of puppets in the Witch Hunting Legion is approaching two hundred. In another seventy or eighty years, we should be able to almost achieve our goal."
Thanks to the development of sub-magic energy technology, Starlight Continent's productivity It can be said that there has been a big leap forward in level, and the income of the Star Alliance has also skyrocketed.
Unfortunately, resources such as rare metals will not increase with the increase in productivity. If it were not for material limitations, the Witch Hunting Legion would have completed its original formation goal long ago.
"Second magic energy technology has been popularized. Next, it is time to try to promote magic energy technology."
Su Nan glanced at the secondary magic stones piled up in the corner of the workshop.
Although it adopts stepped mining, the Covenant's current secondary magic stone production is still in excess.
After discussing with Lize, Sunan decided to use part of it to synthesize the magic stone and use it to promote magic technology in Jinyan Province to warm up in advance.
After the plane blockade is lifted and new magic stone veins are found, Starlight Continent can immediately increase the promotion of magic technology and enter the magic era from the sub-magic era as quickly as possible. .
“The blockade of the plane will have to wait until around 2000 in the astral calendar, but the Throne of Darkness will arrive more than ten years in advance.”
Su Nan recalled, the first batch of Throne of Darkness in his memory The time when the wizards invaded the Starlight Continent seemed to be in the year 1983 of the Starlight Calendar.
As for which month it was, he didn't know.
But Sunan didn’t care either.
As long as the Throne of Darkness enters the Starlight Continent and uses spells, the Eye of the Star can capture the energy particle fluctuations and lock its position immediately.
So just know the approximate time of their invasion.
Shaking his head, Sunan gathered his thoughts and continued to create self-destructive gems.
The Star Alliance currently does not have many wizard-level puppets, only about three hundred in total, so the number of self-destructive gems to be produced is not large.
After spending more than half a month making self-destructive gems and installing them on all wizard-level puppets, Sunan devoted himself wholeheartedly to condensing his spirit.
In order to improve the efficiency of the wizards in collecting elemental crystal dust, Sunan allowed the wizards who accepted the collection task to temporarily hire the golem army at a low cost to kill the elemental spirits.
Thanks to this, the amount of elemental crystal dust collected by wizards has skyrocketed in recent years.
However, doubts about why Sunan attaches so much importance to elemental crystal dust are also rampant among wizards.
Although Lize was also a little confused, she didn't ask any more questions and instead helped Sunan suppress the question.
Su Nan ignored the outside world. With a sufficient supply of divine energy, his mental concentration increased much faster than expected.
The time of cultivation always flies by.
In the blink of an eye, we enter the year 1930 in the astral calendar.
With the Covenant’s unsparing resources, the Witch Hunting Legion was finally formed.
"Three hundred touch master puppets and fifty secret puppets. This number of wizard-level puppets should be enough to deal with the advance team of the Throne of Darkness."
In the study, Su Nan said with a smile after reading the document. .
Lize glanced at him and said: "How come you seem to know how many people are in the advance team of the Throne of Darkness?"
"Guess, the plane barrier has not been completely repaired yet. Under such circumstances, if the Throne of Darkness wants to enter the Starlight Continent in advance, the number of people and strength level will be greatly restricted. "
Su Nan said casually.
In fact, he not only knew how many people were in the advance team of the Throne of Darkness, but he even knew their specific strength. It's just that he can't be sure whether what happens in the future will be the same as what he remembers.
After all, with the addition of him as a butterfly flapping its wings, the current situation of Starlight Continent is completely different from that in memory, and it is likely to change in the future.
Lize nodded and didn’t ask any more questions.
In fact, she quite agreed with what Su Nan said.
With the current strength of the Star Alliance, unless the Throne of Darkness sends out dozens of second-level wizards or third-level wizards at once, it will not be able to pose a threat to the Star Alliance at all.
However, neither of them is realistic.
The unrepaired plane barrier cannot allow third-level wizards to pass through, nor can it pass through dozens of second-level wizards at the same time.
Looking deeper, the Throne of Darkness does not know the current situation of the Starlight Continent. It probably thinks that there are no wizards here, so it will not send too powerful a lineup of wizards.
By the time the Dark Throne realizes the true strength of the Star Alliance, it may be too late.
"In fifty or sixty years, the advance team from the Throne of Darkness should arrive. The Star Alliance should prepare early. I will go into retreat next. I will leave the specific arrangements to you. Once someone from the Throne of Darkness is discovered, immediately Tell me."
"I understand." Liz nodded.
She acted very calmly about Sunan's retreat and sprint.
Having seen Sunan’s terrifying strength improvement speed, she is no longer surprised, or numb.
She would be surprised if Sunan's strength improved slowly.
Returning to the top of the Wizard Tower, Su Nan saw the Hidden Dragon lying next to the elemental pool, looking drowsy.
Amy lay on its back, licking her paws out of boredom.
It wasn't until it saw Sunan that it perked up, leaped over a distance of more than ten meters in an instant, and appeared on Sunan's shoulder out of thin air.
"Meow, Sunan, why are you here? Yinlong and I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
The clear cry woke up the Yinlong, and it opened its eyes and saw Sunan , also came over and rubbed his head against his master, growling lowly.
Sunan smiled and patted Yinlong's head.
Giant dragons originally have the characteristic of gradually getting stronger with age. Coupled with Sunan's long-term supply of synthetic dragon blood, the hidden dragon's strength has improved far beyond that of ordinary dragons. Now its strength is compared to The first-level crystallized wizard is no less impressive.
In the entire Star Alliance, except for Sunan, Hidden Dragon is the strongest.
"Why did you suddenly think of me? What's the matter?" Su Nan asked Amy.
The little guy knows that he is busy and rarely disturbs him.
He spent most of his time with Hidden Dragon, and occasionally went to see Liz.
As people who have experienced the heyday of wizards thousands of years ago, Liz and Amy have a lot in common.
For Amy, Lise's appearance gave her an extra friend to chat with, and the little one was very happy because of it.
Lize is also very interested in this magical pet that has little combat power, but can travel through space. She is even more curious about Amy's mysterious master, and often chats with her Opportunity to get information.
So one ghost and one cat get along quite harmoniously.
"Is the dimensional barrier of Starlight Continent about to be restored?" Amy asked expectantly.
“Who did you listen to?”
“Xie Man told me meow!”
“That’s true.”
Su Nan didn’t hide anything , he knew very well that Amy actually longed to see her master in her heart.
"In about seventy years, the dimensional barrier will be completely repaired, and then the Starlight Continent will be restored to what it was a thousand years ago."
Amy suddenly became excited: "Then can I see it? Master?”
“Of course.” Su Nan smiled and nodded, “Even if your master doesn’t come back to Starlight Continent, I will help you find your master.”
Amy has helped him a lot, and he will still try his best to help Amy realize this wish.
“The master will definitely come back to find Amy’s cat!” Amy said without hesitation
The little guy is still convinced that his master did not abandon him on purpose, and there must be a compelling reason behind it.
Su Nan smiled and echoed the words.
A lot of magic items were left behind in the place where Amy slept. Obviously, she didn’t have time to take them away in a hurry, so the little guy’s guess is still possible.
It’s just that Amy’s master is a descendant of the true spirit, and his strength is not weak. It can make its master leave in a hurry without even taking the magic pet with him. How urgent is it?
Or is it that Amy’s owner deliberately kept her to avoid putting her in danger?
Sunan didn't hesitate too much. Anyway, she would know when she found Amy's owner.
After receiving confirmation from Sunan, Amy was in an unusually high mood and was having fun with the Hidden Dragon who didn’t know where to go.
Su Nan smiled and didn’t care.
As a giant dragon, Hidden Dragon does not need to practice. Apart from sleeping and the occasional blood fusion, the rest of the time is spent in a daze with nothing to do. It is also a good thing to have Amy play with him, so as not to always run to bully 1 District and 2 sub-dragon species.
"Tangling No. 1, scan the status of the wizard tower."
[Receive the instruction and start scanning. The scan is completed. 】
A three-dimensional model quickly appeared in front of you.
After the construction of the Starlight Wizard Tower was completed, due to limited materials and funds, Sunan did not carry out drastic upgrades, but some detailed improvements were still made one after another.
For example, the synthetic upgrade of the floating ring greatly enhances the mobility of the wizard tower.
There are also improvements to the spell turret type II and the dissociation gun type II, mainly to reduce energy consumption.
With Taling No. 2 serving as an experimental assistant and receiving a lot of advice from Liz, the results of improved experiments were considerable.
Originally, the number of Type II spell turrets in the Starlight Wizard Tower was somewhat excessive, with a total of three hundred, which was a big burden on energy.
However, after improvements, the energy consumption of three hundred spell turret type II salvos is less than 10%, and the burden is greatly reduced.
In addition, the energy consumption of the Dissociation Cannon Type II has also been reduced to less than 8%, which is about one-third less than the original, which is a significant improvement.
“After the plane blockade is lifted, we must start collecting the manufacturing technology of plasma cannons and pulse cannons to improve our long-range strike firepower.”
Sunan waved away the three-dimensional model, sat down cross-legged next to the element pool, took out the element crystal core and began to absorb it.
His mental concentration level has exceeded 70%. According to the current progress, it will take at most seventy or eighty years to break through to the second level of crystallization.
At that time, even if the Throne of Darkness really found a way to send a third-level wizard over, he would not be afraid at all.
Now that everything is ready, the next step is to wait for the enemy to arrive. (End of this chapter)
