Chapter 115 Secret Doll, a Chance to Change Destiny
Starlight calendar 1254, Winter Qin month.
This year's New Year celebration is particularly grand, far exceeding previous years.
The main reason is that the lord has a son.
To celebrate the birth of his son, the lord waved his hand and held a flowing banquet for several days in the square to celebrate with the people.
Sunan went to see his newly born nephew. It is not clear whether his spiritual qualifications are good or not, but his bones are very good.
Come to think of it, after all, the little guy's father is a great knight at the top.
In recent years, under Sunan's continuous "feeding", Keyi's strength has improved rapidly, and now he is only one step away from becoming a legendary knight.
Sunan plans to intercept all the dragon blood fruits harvested from the No. 2 Magic Plant Garden in the next six months, and then synthesize high-level dragon blood fruits with the effect of a third-level potion, so that Keyi can take it, and there is a high probability that he will break through and become a legendary knight.
A 26-year-old legendary knight with one ring is unique in the entire Star Principality.
Base No. 1, insect nest.
In the room transformed into a mine environment, eleven silly-looking gem bugs were crawling slowly. When they passed by the scattered small pieces of broken ore, they would stop to take a few bites and then continue crawling.
After the number increased to eleven, the annual output of gems in the insect nest also soared to nearly four hundred, and it was beginning to take shape.
In addition, Carolina was collecting rare metals such as Abyssal Black Copper and Rainbow Iron under Sunan's order.
Given the richness of metals in the underground world, Sunan believed that new nutrients should be gathered soon, and the number of gem bugs would continue to grow.
In addition, a lot of rare metals needed to refine the magic pattern core were also collected.
It is estimated that the materials needed to refine the second magic pattern core will be gathered in a short time.
Leaving the insect nest, Sunan went straight to the laboratory.
Just a few days ago, he had just attended a party in the jungle cabin.
Heilin, who had stood him up twice in a row, finally showed up at the party this time.
However, according to Night Owl, Heilin did not attend eight out of ten parties, which was normal.
At that party, Sunan finally traded the puppet design from Heilin, which was said to be rare.
After he read the design in detail, he confirmed what Heilin said, it was indeed very rare.
Rather than saying it was a puppet design, it was better to say it was a puppet refining technology.
In short, it was a golem miniaturization technology.
The overall idea was to use very light metals such as mithril to refine puppets, reduce the weight as much as possible, and greatly reduce the size, making the body size very close to that of humans, and then use medium or large soul crystals as soul core drive.
In this way, the golems made are smart, agile, and intelligent enough. If they are well disguised, it is not a problem to pretend to be a living person.
Moreover, they can incorporate more combat skills and spells, which are far more powerful than ordinary golems.
Because most of the materials are made of mithril, this miniaturized golem is also called a secret puppet!
According to the description on the design, a secret puppet refined with a medium-sized soul crystal has a combat power that is not inferior to that of a formal wizard.
It must be said that this description made Sunan very excited.
However, after careful study, he had to give up the idea of refining the secret doll.
Not to mention the requirements of the skill pre-level, the most critical factor is the cost.
Since the body of the secret doll is mostly made of mithril, no matter how economical it is, at least thirty or forty kilograms of mithril will be used to refine the secret doll.
And mithril usually appears as a byproduct of silver mines.
As an isotope element of silver, the value of mithril is far greater than the former.
It has amazing ductility and magic conductivity. After being refined, it will never fade. The material properties are extremely stable. Magic items made of mithril can be used for hundreds of years without worrying about natural loss.
When refining magic items, just adding a small amount of mithril can greatly improve its quality.
In addition, mithril can also be used to make metal golems or magic constructs.
The main material of the mithril sage, one of the highest works of the rumored golem, is mithril.
In addition, a large amount of mithril is needed to build wizard towers and floating cities.
Mithril is an indispensable rare material in floating rings, anti-gravity devices, elemental drive devices, etc.
However, mithril is very rare.
The associated mithril ore is often low in content and very scattered. It may be possible to hollow out the entire large silver vein and only collect about ten kilograms.
Therefore, mithril is particularly precious.
When ordinary wizard apprentices refine magic items, the mithril added is calculated by gram.
Dozens of kilograms is a completely frightening number.
Even Sunan, who has two silver veins, currently has less than three kilograms of mithril.
Most of the mithril is consumed in refining golem puppets and feeding gem worms.
It will take a long time to save thirty or forty kilograms of mithril.
In summary, this puppet design is not feasible.
When judging this point, Sunan was a little speechless.
The previous gem puppet design was fine, and now there is another puppet design.
Hei Lin didn't know where he got these designs from. Each of them was cleverly designed, but not feasible. He could only look at them for fun, which was really speechless.
"But it's not completely worthless."
Although not feasible, the two designs are still somewhat useful for reference.
After carefully studying the two designs, Sunan found that it might be possible to combine the two and combine their advantages, that is, to refine a miniaturized gem puppet.
In this way, the cost can be greatly reduced.
During this period, Sunan has been studying the feasibility of combining the two, and only now has some clues.
"If successful, perhaps a puppet that is much more powerful than the adamantium golem can be refined."
A trace of expectation rose in Sunan's heart.
Time passed in a flash, and it entered the Spring Dawn Moon.
The snow melted and everything revived.
Busy farmers can be seen everywhere in the fields.
On the third day of the Spring Dawn Moon, Sunan finally succeeded in mastering the silent casting of spells.
In the spell training room.
Sunan raised his hand, and seven spell missiles appeared in front of him, whistling and hitting the human-shaped target in the distance, and blew it to pieces with a bang.
Before the roar died down, Sunan stretched out his hand again, and a dazzling red light bloomed from his fingertips, turning into a red ray that struck out like lightning, hitting the other humanoid target, and the humanoid target instantly melted into molten iron.
Scorching ray!
"Not bad."
Sunan nodded with satisfaction.
Although silent spell casting cannot shorten the preparation time for casting, it can prepare the next spell while casting, thereby greatly shortening the interval between casting and improving the efficiency of casting.
Mastering silent spell casting can be regarded as a human turret to some extent.
When a wizard apprentice who has not mastered silent spell casting fights against a wizard apprentice who has mastered silent spell casting, there is no doubt that the latter will definitely crush the former.
This is the power of super magic skills!
"Next is instant spell casting!"
[Complete a spell instant casting exercise, 'spell instant' training progress +0.01%]
Until almost all mental power is consumed, the training progress of instant spell casting has reached 0.04%.
Sunan estimated that two rounds of practice a day could increase the training progress by 0.08% at most.
According to this progress, it would take about three or four years to master instant spell casting.
And it took him only two years to master silent spell casting.
"This is normal. After all, instant spell casting is an advanced skill of silent spell casting, and it is also one of the most difficult super magic skills. It is not surprising that it takes a long time."
Coming back to his senses, Sunan called out the panel.
[Sunan Yanest, human male]
[Spirit 36.58/Constance 33.23]
[Skills]
Star Ring Meditation Lv13 (885724/1200000)
Potion Making Lv4 (6034/10000)
Biological Transformation Lv3 (2492/6000)
Puppet Refining Lv4 (6982/10000)
Magic Item Manufacturing Lv4 (3945/10000)
The 13th level of Star Ring Meditation, the required proficiency to upgrade has soared to 1.2 million.
Fortunately, with the strengthening of the God Blood Amber and the growth of mental power, Sunan's daily meditation can now increase his proficiency by about 4,000 points, so the progress is not slow.
"In more than two months, I can almost condense the thirteenth star ring."
Sunan thought secretly.
It is worth mentioning that due to the large number of puppets refined, Sunan's [Puppet Refining] skill has surpassed the [Potion Making] he mastered at the beginning.
He estimated that this would be his first skill to break through to level 5.
Then he might try to refine higher-level puppets.
After turning off the panel, Sunan walked out of the spell training area and looked up at the clear blue sky.
"Speaking of which, the Knight Academy has been running for more than half a year. I wonder how it is going?"
"Lord Sheman, Lord Atil, welcome to the Dragon Heart Knight Academy."
At the gate of the academy, Moritz bowed slightly to Sheman and Atil who were walking towards him, and said with a smile on his face.
"Hello, Dean Moritz."
Atil and Sheman bowed slightly in return.
"Please come this way."
Moritz was a rare civilian in the army, but he relied on his own efforts to become an officer of a mid-level knight in his thirties.
After Sunan decided to establish a knight academy, he was transferred from the army, and after using dragon blood fruit to strengthen him to the peak knight, he was arranged to serve as the dean of the knight academy.
Moritz was not dissatisfied with this arrangement at all, but was ecstatic.
Who in the Flash Territory doesn't know that Lord Sunan is the pillar supporting the development and growth of the entire territory?
In the Flash Territory, Lord Sunan's status is no lower than that of the Lord.
It is worth it to join Lord Sunan's line, even if you can't get the title of nobility from now on.
In fact, after serving as the dean of the Dragon Heart Knight Academy, Moritz clearly felt that his status was rising. When they met on weekdays, even Viscount Brad, who was most trusted by the Lord, was gentle to him.
Those barons and lords were even more smiling and flattering to him.
Although he did not have a noble title, he was actually almost the same as a noble.
Therefore, Moritz felt grateful and respectful to Lord Sunan from the bottom of his heart.
If the latter had not given him this opportunity, he would not know when he could become a nobleman with his commoner status.
So when he heard that Lord Sunan had sent two of his students to inspect, Moritz personally stood at the gate of the academy early in the morning and waited.
"Since the students enrolled in the college are all from civilians and farmers, and the literacy rate is not high, the college has specially set up the most basic literacy courses, in addition to various basic subjects."
"Currently, students are mainly still laying the foundation. In addition to cultural courses, half a day is allocated for exercise and physical training every day. It will not be until they enter the second grade that they will start learning martial arts, riding skills and breathing techniques."
Sherman looked at the surrounding buildings and asked casually: "How many years does the college last?"
"Four-year course." Moritz said with a smile, "But as long as you are promoted to a knight, you can graduate early."
Both Sherman and Atil refused to comment.
The Dragon Heart Knight Academy recruits students who are all eleven or twelve years old. They are from civilian farmers and have poor natural foundation. Those who can become trainee knights in four years are considered to have excellent qualifications.
It's almost impossible to be promoted to the Cavaliers in four years.
Unless there is external influence.
"I heard from the teacher that starting from next year, the base will provide the college with a batch of dragon blood fruits every year." Artil said with a smile.
"That's great!"
Moritz was overjoyed.
He himself relied on the Dragon Blood Fruit to break through and become a peak knight, so he naturally knew how powerful the Dragon Blood Fruit was.
If dragon blood fruit is supported, the growth rate of the students will definitely be greatly increased.
Maybe there will really be a few elites who graduate early in the future.
During the conversation, the three of them came to a wide playground, where many students were running around.
"Everyone seems to be in good spirits." Atil smiled.
Moritz laughed and said: "Of course, these boys all know that this is an opportunity that they have finally obtained and can change their destiny. Naturally, they cherish it very much. They usually study and train very hard."
When Xie Man heard this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
He is also one of those whose destiny has been changed.
The base and the Knights Academy founded by the teacher have changed the fate of hundreds of children who grew up in poverty like him.
And it is foreseeable that this number will continue to increase in the future.
At this time, the students on the playground also noticed the presence of the three people beside them.
When they saw a man and a woman in robes accompanied by Dean Moritz, the crowd suddenly became commotion.
On the first day of class at the academy, a teacher told them that when they graduate from the academy, they will join the Knight Guards under Lord Sunan and serve the powerful and mysterious wizards.
One of the characteristics of wizards is their habit of wearing robes.
Coupled with the fact that Dean Moritz was accompanying them, the identity of the man and the woman was ready to be revealed.
For a moment, many students subconsciously slowed down and stretched their necks to look, wanting to see what the rumored wizard looked like.
It was not until the supervising teacher ordered them to concentrate that the students reluctantly looked back.
Looking at this scene, Sherman and Atil couldn't help laughing.
"Let's go, Dean Moritz, let's go somewhere else and don't disturb these students."
