Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 217 Spell Turret Type II and Magic Machine

New type of puppet!

Everyone was a little curious when they heard this.

Fleming was the first to be unable to hold himself back and stepped forward to open the cabin.

As the metal doors opened to both sides with a squeak, the situation inside the cabin was revealed to everyone.

In the spacious hall, huge puppets are neatly arranged in a square array, standing motionless, with a sense of regular beauty.

These puppets look like metal octopuses, with more than a dozen long, coiled tentacles growing around their bloated bodies. The end is a sharp cone, flashing with a heart-stopping coldness like a sharp blade. Mang.

"A puppet in the form of an octopus."

Sherman had a feeling that it was unexpected and reasonable.

There is an octopus-type sea monster in the Rainbow Sea. The octopus form can be said to be very suitable for underwater operations.

And the attack power of those tentacles cannot be underestimated at a glance.

It can be said that the octopus form is one of the best forms that combines underwater action and aggression.

"There are a total of five hundred octopus puppets here, each with a legendary level of combat power. In addition, there are ten elite octopus puppets with a legendary level of combat power of the second level."

"The other two second-level magic ships also have the same number of puppets."

There are a total of 1,500 octopus puppets and 30 elite octopus puppets.

Sherman nodded secretly.

This quantity is almost enough at this stage.

After the three artificial islands are completed and the golem factory can be built, the octopus puppet production line can be transferred to the island and the puppets can be mass-produced on the spot. Then there will be no need to worry about military strength.

“Now that the support has arrived, it’s time to leave without further delay and head to the artificial island today.”

Wizard's Tower, inside the plantation.

Su Nan used the hands of a mage to control a special liquid that was a fusion of rare metals and gems, and carefully drew the last lines on the ground.

As the lines joined together to form a closed loop, the entire array instantly flashed with silver light, adding an indescribable strange aura.

"Done!"

Sunan let out a long sigh of relief, and a smile flashed across his face.

The magic circle of the plantation has been drawn, and all that is left to do is to plant the magic plants.

In terms of growth environment, the Wizard Tower Plantation with higher concentration of energy particles and magic circle is obviously better than Dragon Forest Area 2.

The only advantage of the latter is its large area.

"Rare magic plants can be transferred to plantations, but those with relatively low value should be placed in Longlin District 2."

Sunan turned around and waved to Tiya, who was wandering not far away.

"Tia."

Hearing Sunan's call, the elegant and beautiful Flower Fairy Queen immediately flew over happily.

"Su Nan, are you finished with your work?"

"Well, the magic circle has been set up, and it will be almost ready once the magic plant is transplanted."

Sunan stretched out her index finger and gently touched Tiya's delicate face with her fingertips. The girl showed an expression of enjoyment.

"Tiya, thank you very much for summoning another group of kin."

"No problem." Dita agreed with a smile, "Many of my kindred spirits want to come here."

Most flower fairies have a wish to have a flower garden that they can take care of themselves, and the plantation just fulfills this wish.

In addition, Sunan was very generous and gave a lot of rewards, so the flower fairies lived happily here, which made their compatriots who were still in their hometown very envious.

After playing with Tiya for a while, Sunan left the plantation and returned to the control center.

"No. 1, scan the current status of the Wizard Tower."

[After receiving the instruction, start scanning. 】

【Scanning completed. 】

A three-dimensional panoramic model immediately appeared in front of you.

[Wizard Tower: Starlight]

[Level: Small (construction progress 37.22%)]

[Current remaining energy: 93.82%]

[Intelligent Assisted Life: Taling No. 1]

[Facilities: Element pool (small/enhanced), central crystal energy transmission system, residential area, warehouse area (construction progress 76.22%), experimental area, practice area (construction progress 46.91%), meditation area, planting area]

[Servant: Clay Golem×130]

[Protective device: Mystic Lock Protective Energy Field (Small)]

[Combat Device: None]

"The progress is pretty smooth."

Sunan nodded secretly.

The Mystic Lock protective energy field has also been produced. Next, you can consider making a few more for synthesis.

The same goes for the element pool. It is still strengthened by +1 and can continue to be synthesized.

The progress of spatial planning is only half completed, and there are still many areas that are not perfect.

It is worth mentioning that Sunan just built a spell turret a while ago.

The first batch of hands-on exercises happened to be used to equip the magic ship.

After making it later, he planned to synthesize it and then equip it on the wizard tower.

"The current situation in Starlight Continent means that there is simply no resources to manufacture plasma cannons and pulse cannons. Even if they are manufactured, the small element pool cannot afford the energy consumption of these two weapons."

Sunan shook his head.

Not to mention the pulse cannon, even a lower-level plasma cannon consumes a lot of energy.

He estimated that even if the elemental pool was strengthened by +1, it would only be enough to fire two plasma cannons.

For small wizard towers, the level of plasma cannons and pulse cannons are too high. They are equipment only available for medium and large wizard towers.

Small wizard towers can only be equipped with disintegration cannons at best.

Although it cannot be equipped with plasma cannons and pulse cannons, it is no problem to enhance the power of spell turrets and dissociation cannons through synthesis.

Although there is also the problem that the energy consumption will increase sharply with the increase of firepower, it can be solved by strengthening the element pool.

After many experiments and actual firepower measurements, Sunan finally set the number of spell turrets to be synthesized at five.

The power of the spell turret synthesized with this number is about seven times and nearly eight times that of the original.

Sunan asked the secret doll girl to assist in the test, and the result was that one shot directly hit the secret doll girl.

If it weren't for the magic pattern core that offset most of the artillery power, I'm afraid the secret doll girl would have become a pile of scrap metal.

"This power is almost catching up with the dissociation cannon!"

Sunan sighed with admiration.

Even if it is a first-level gasification wizard, if he is hit by a few rays of the spell turret, he will be seriously injured if not killed.

However, the price of greatly enhancing the power is that the energy consumption has also skyrocketed to about four times the original.

Sunan estimated that only by strengthening the element pool to a level close to medium can the consumption of using the spell turret as a conventional weapon be affordable.

He also planned to do so, so he controlled the number of synthesis to five.

If the spell turret continues to be strengthened, its power can still be further improved, but it will lose its meaning as a conventional weapon.

As for high-end weapons, he plans to strengthen the dissociation cannon.

"Since it is a new version, let's call it the spell turret type II."

Sunan decided to equip the wizard tower with 100 spell turrets type II first, and then increase it according to the situation.

The cost of this item alone is more than 15 million gold coins.

However, the benefits are also very obvious. The firepower of the Starlight Wizard Tower is definitely far superior to most small wizard towers.

If it is equipped with a synthetically strengthened dissociation cannon, the firepower will probably not be much inferior to that of a medium-sized wizard tower.

"After we finish the spell turret, we will study the dissociation cannon."

"There is also the golem corps, and the problem of high-level puppets has not been solved yet."

The high-level puppet design drawings that Sunan currently has are the adamantium golem and the secret puppet.

The former can be strengthened to the three-ring legend, and can be used as the main puppet of the wizard tower golem corps, and there is no need to worry about the source of magic adamantium materials.

The problem is the latter.

Generally speaking, small wizard towers will be equipped with formal wizard-level high-level puppets as the final battle sequence.

In other words, this type of puppet must at least reach the combat power level of the first-level gasification wizard.

The secret puppet girl undoubtedly meets this requirement.

But the problem is that the cost of refining the secret puppet is too high.

The cost of a single secret puppet is as high as 480,000 gold coins, and if 100 are configured, it will cost nearly 50 million gold coins.

The key is that even if Sunan is willing to spend this money, there is not so much material.

A large amount of mithril is needed to refine secret puppets, and the current mithril production of the Star Alliance is basically used in the construction of wizard towers. It can be predicted that there will not be enough mithril to refine secret puppets in batches in the next hundred years.

Of course, he can also accumulate mithril for a hundred years after the wizard tower is built, and he will always be able to collect enough mithril to refine secret puppets.

But considering the wide use of mithril as a material, it is a bit wasteful to use mithril to refine secret puppets in batches.

It is best to find a way to get the wizard-level puppet design and directly refine it manually.

As for the materials, you can find a way to synthesize or research substitutes. Anyway, the most critical soul crystal will definitely be no problem.

"There are many problems to solve."

Sunan rubbed his eyebrows.

It is indeed a laborious task to build a wizard tower in an elemental desert and a world with blocked planes.

Just compared with the benefits after the wizard tower is built, these problems are not problems.

Leaving the control center, Sunan returned to the study.

In recent months, I have been immersed in the construction of the wizard tower. I haven't read the reports sent for a long time. There should be no major events in the Star Alliance and the Star Empire. I don't know what the situation is in the Rainbow Sea.

However, just after returning to the study, Sunan suddenly felt a strong energy fluctuation erupting.

"That direction is the Starlight Academy!"

Sunan's figure disappeared instantly, and when he appeared again, he was already above the Starlight Academy.

The students' power level was too low, and they did not sense the energy fluctuation. The academy was as peaceful as ever.

Soon, a group of instructors including the Scepter, Rose, and Fakado also came to Sunan.

Under the introduction of the Scepter and Rose, the Starlight Academy later absorbed three third-level wizard apprentices as instructors.

Together with Sherman and Cole who have accepted the invitation to take the position of instructor, the number of instructors in the Starlight Academy has now reached double digits, greatly easing the pressure on teachers.

"It should be the traveler." The scepter said, "He has been in seclusion for several years, and it's almost time for him to come out."

Rose said: "It seems that his semi-element transformation should be successful."

Sure enough, not long after, a figure was seen soaring into the sky, flying towards the location of everyone at a high speed.

It was the traveler who had not been seen for a long time.

Compared to before the seclusion, the aura of the traveler was more peaceful, but it was faintly full of vitality like the majestic trees.

When the whole person stopped and floated in the air, it seemed that he had merged into the whole world.

It was a sign of successful semi-element transformation.

And judging from the aura, the traveler obviously chose the wood element.

"Congratulations." Sunan smiled and congratulated.

The others also reacted at this time and came forward to congratulate.

The traveler also thanked them one by one with a smile on his face.

After a few pleasantries, Fakado and the others said goodbye and left. Only Sunan, Rose and the Scepter, who were more familiar with the traveler, stayed.

"How do you feel?" Rose asked with a sharp look in her eyes.

She also planned to take the semi-elemental route next, and the traveler's experience might give her some reference.

The traveler did not hide it and said truthfully: "Very good, the perception and control of plant energy particles have been significantly enhanced. The specific increase in lifespan is not yet clear, but it is definitely forty or fifty years."

Among the many semi-elemental routes, the wood element has the most increased lifespan due to its nature.

That is, the choice of the semi-elemental route must be in line with one's own physique. If it does not match one's own physique, the probability of failure is extremely high. Otherwise, most wizard apprentices would probably choose the wood element.

The traveler was also lucky, and his physique happened to be in line with the wood element.

"But after the semi-elementalization, I vaguely felt some kind of shackles, as if I took another step up, I would touch a certain boundary." The traveler frowned and said.

"That's the shackles of the Starlight Continent environment."

Su Nan explained the upper limit of energy particle concentration.

After listening, the three travelers suddenly realized.

"No wonder the wizards left thousands of years ago. It's really unbearable to stay here."

"Not only that, in this environment, wizards' training will be twice as effective."

Rose couldn't help but glance at Sunan.

She couldn't see through Sunan's power level at all, and didn't know what level the latter had reached.

Su Nan had always given her the feeling that he was too unpredictable and always acted unexpectedly.

Perhaps Sunan had a way to overcome the harsh environment of the Starlight Continent.

After chatting for a while, Sunan returned to the wizard tower.

After the traveler successfully became a semi-element, Rose was obviously eager to try.

It is estimated that she will start to retreat soon.

And most of them will choose the wood element.

In fact, the semi-element of the wizard apprentice is almost not affected by the elemental knight.

After all, the meditation absorption of the wizard apprentice is not limited by the type of energy particles.

On the other hand, elemental knights can only absorb specific types of energy particles to improve their strength. Relatively speaking, they have higher requirements for the upper limit of energy particle concentration and are more susceptible to the ceiling of energy particle concentration in the Starlight Continent.

This is why Sunan suggested that Keyi choose the path of bloodline knights.

Back in the study, Sunan sat down and read the report.

The report of the Starry Empire is mainly about the progress of reform implementation.

Due to the lack of magic stone veins, Sunan rejected the idea of ​​promoting magic technology, but after that, he came up with the idea of ​​popularizing sub-magic technology with secondary magic stone as energy.

Only he can synthesize magic stone, but secondary magic stone can be made by second- and third-level wizard apprentices.

Although the quantity is not enough to supply the entire continent, it is still feasible to supply it on a small scale.

So he directly threw the design drawings of magic technology to the Starlight Academy and asked them to research the corresponding sub-magic technology on this basis.

Because it is backward compatible, the research progress is quite fast.

Just three months ago, a magic machine with secondary magic stone as the driving energy was born.

This magic machine is a bit like an internal combustion engine, but it has a higher energy utilization rate and can be used in many production fields.

However, due to the small number of secondary magic stones, the magic machine is currently only promoted and used within the imperial capital area.

Having said that, this is still a good start.

With the increase in the number of wizard apprentices in Starlight Academy, the output of secondary magic stones will also increase year by year in the future, driving the gradual popularization of secondary magic technology, expanding the scope of application, and the birth of more secondary magic products.
