Chapter 131 The Current Situation of Wizards

"Master, Matu and Orson sent someone to deliver a letter."

Just as he walked out of the meditation room, Sunan saw Carolina walking hurriedly and handed over a letter.

Sunan raised his eyebrows in surprise, took the letter and opened it.

Red Widow and Black Duke had not made any moves for so long, he thought the two city-states were going to leave Youhu City aside and join forces to fight Kasham, but he didn't expect that there would be movement again now.

The content of the letter was very simple, just asking him to meet.

The three city lords went to Black Valley alone three days later without any soldiers to meet and discuss matters related to Kasham.

"Master, did Red Widow and Black Duke say anything?" Carolina asked carefully.

Sunan didn't say anything and handed the letter to her directly.

After Carolina finished reading, Sunan asked, "Where is the Black Valley?"

"It's almost at the center of the intersection of Matu, Orsen and Youhu City. There is a black valley there."

Carolina knew what Sunan wanted to know, and explained in detail:

"The Black Valley is a very special place. Once you use elements and magic there, you will suffer a strong backlash. The stronger you are, the heavier the backlash. So when Eusula met with the Red Widow and the Black Duke in the past, they would choose to meet there, without worrying about an ambush."

Sunan's expression moved.

It sounds a bit like the forbidden magic area.

However, the forbidden magic area cannot cast spells or mobilize energy particles.

The Black Valley can mobilize energy particles, but it will suffer backlash.

It's similar.

No wonder the Red Widow and the Black Duke chose it as the meeting place.

There, they don't have to worry about Sunan taking action against them.

Similarly, Sunan doesn't have to worry about the other party's conspiracy.

"Master, are you going?" Carolina asked.

Although Sunan did not say it explicitly, Carolina felt that he did not seem to be keen on cooperating with Matu and Orson.

Carolina originally disagreed with this and was ready to find an opportunity to persuade the master.

However, after accidentally seeing several elite double-bladed spiders and high-level stone golems in the puppet factory a few days ago, she gave up the idea.

What cooperation?

With the golem army, it doesn't matter whether Matu and Orson are there or not. Youhu City can deal with the insect plague alone.

Now Matu and Orson should worry about how to deal with the insect plague!

"Go and see what they are planning."

Sunan smiled meaningfully.

Although he did not plan to cooperate, he could take this opportunity to test the details of Matu and Orson.

After all, after solving Kasham, it would be the turn of these two city-states.

Knowing yourself and the enemy will win every battle, and it is always right to collect intelligence in advance.

"Please reply to them for me and tell them that I agree."

Sunan walked towards the study room after Carolina left.

There were rolls of parchment on the desk. After Sunan sat down, he took out a roll and read it carefully.

The content above was about the secrets of wizards.

This was the wizard intelligence secretly collected by the former Starry Royal Family. After discovering this, Ke Yi sent it to him as soon as possible.

Perhaps because their ancestors were wizards, the former Starry Royal Family paid special attention to wizards. Every year, they invested a lot of manpower and material resources to collect the secrets of wizards in the southeast region of the Starlight Continent, and summarize and organize them.

Over the years, there have been considerable results.

According to the records in the intelligence, there are a total of 184 wizards whose whereabouts can be clearly identified so far.

Among them, there are 31 first-level wizard apprentices, 148 second-level wizard apprentices, and 5 third-level wizard apprentices.

From the data alone, the number of second-level wizard apprentices and the other two levels of wizard apprentices is particularly different.

But it is normal to think about it carefully. The strength of the first-level wizard apprentice is not obvious, so he must be very low-key and naturally difficult to be discovered.

The third-level wizard apprentice is simply small in number.

In contrast, the second-level wizard apprentice has mastered a certain strength and started to use his power to seek benefits for himself and collect resources. Naturally, he is the most active group.

It is worth mentioning that more than 70% of the 184 wizards have died over the past hundreds of years.

The remaining ones are scattered in dozens of countries in the southeast region of the continent.

The intelligence of the Starry Royal Family detailed the approximate strength of these wizard apprentices, the countries and towns they are currently in, and the noble forces they cooperate with.

Sunan looked at them one by one, and basically all the wizard apprentices were supported by noble forces behind them.

This is normal. After all, in this era of scarce resources, without enough manpower to help, it is difficult for wizard apprentices to collect sufficient resources by themselves.

It is worth mentioning that Sunan also found his own information on it.

Before the Flash Territory raised the flag of rebellion, the intelligence estimated his strength only at the level of the second-ring legend.

It can be said that the difference is a bit too much.

It is no wonder that when they were in Hulan Province, the Spark Church only sent a chief priest with holy objects to protect the Marquis of Hulan.

In addition to him, there are four other third-level wizard apprentices.

One of them is a third-level wizard apprentice worshipped by the Starry Royal Family, who has died at the hands of Oviju.

The second one is Ugo from the Eternal Life Society.

According to the description in the intelligence, the Eternal Life Society is an extremely radical and unscrupulous wizard organization, with an estimated number of eight to ten members.

They are active in various parts of the Starlight Continent, secretly using force to threaten and manipulate a large number of nobles and even royal families of small countries to collect resources for them.

In addition, the Eternal Life Society will do anything to enhance its strength.

They capture civilians for experiments, indulge in modified creatures to slaughter villages in order to collect data, and plant evil magic plants in densely populated residential areas in towns, resulting in the death of a large number of people. There are simply too many such evil deeds!

There was even an example of an apprentice of the Eternal Life Society wizard killing all the people of a small country for experiments and turning the entire country into ruins!

At that time, this incident shocked the entire Southeast Region.

In order to avoid causing panic, this matter was tacitly suppressed by the top leaders of the surrounding countries, and it was announced to the public that the demise of the small country was due to the outbreak of a large-scale plague, so the lower-class people and small nobles basically did not know.

In the vast Southeast Region, except for a few powerful countries such as the Cangjin Empire, the Principality of Stars and the Principality of Jinghua, which made the Eternal Life Society wary, the rest of the countries have basically suffered from the scourge of the Eternal Life Society.

It's just that the Eternal Life Society is too powerful, and these countries can only swallow their anger.

"Just like what Night Owl said, the Eternal Life Society is a group of lunatics."

Sunan knew without thinking that the wizard apprentices of the Eternal Life Society caused so many disasters that angered the gods and people, and they were most likely studying ways to prolong life.

This is a group of lunatics who can do anything for immortality!

In other words, there are other rational wizards on the continent, which can make these lunatics restrained. Otherwise, according to the practice of the Eternal Life Society, the entire continent will soon become a desolate area.

At that time, the already bad training environment will only become worse.

The only good news is that the Eternal Life Society, like the Jungle Cabin, has a loose organizational form.

The members do their own things, exchange resources, intelligence, and provide assistance through transactions, and the relationship between them is not close.

In other words, Ugo's previous threats to him were most likely just bluffs.

The God's Remains is something that the Eternal Life Society must get, just to scare him off.

This thing is probably just what Ugo wants.

However, it is not ruled out that this guy will pay a certain price later and persuade other members of the Eternal Life Society to help.

But no matter what, as long as the entire Eternal Life Society is not dispatched together, Sunan does not need to care too much.

Continuing to look down, the remaining two third-level wizard apprentices are backed by the royal family of the Cangjin Empire and the royal family of the Jinghua Principality.

What surprised Sunan was that according to the intelligence description, these two third-level wizard apprentices were actually members of the Jungle Hut.

"Members of the Jungle Hut related to the royal family?"

The figures of the scepter and the rose flashed through Sunan's mind at the first time.

According to his observation, the most aristocratic people in the entire Jungle Hut are obviously these two people.

If nothing unexpected happens, these two third-level wizard apprentices should be the scepter and the rose.

Judging from the name, the scepter is very likely to be the third-level wizard apprentice behind the royal family of the Cangjin Empire.

As for the rose, it is most likely the third-level wizard apprentice behind the royal family of the Jinghua Principality.

It is precisely because of these two people that the wizard apprentices of the Eternal Life Society dare not attack the Cangjin Empire and the Jinghua Principality.

As for the Principality of the Stars, it is because of Evans and the third-level wizard apprentice who died in the hands of Oviju.

The above are all wizard apprentices whose whereabouts have been confirmed.

As for those wizard apprentices who have appeared or left clues, but the authenticity of their existence or their specific whereabouts cannot be confirmed so far, the number will only be greater.

For example, the wizard apprentices of the Eternal Life Society except Ugo.

The same is true for the jungle hut. Except for Sunan, the scepter and the rose, who have been identified, others also did not appear in this intelligence.

After all, the intelligence collection of the Principality of the Stars is mainly limited to the southeast region, and it is difficult for the tentacles of power to spread to other regions, so it is naturally difficult to collect wizard intelligence in those places.

It took more than half an hour for Sunan to read the entire intelligence carefully and had a general understanding of the current situation of wizards in the southeast region of the Starlight Continent.

It must be said that compared with the hundreds of millions of people in dozens of countries in the southeast region of the continent, the number of wizard apprentices is really pitiful.

The proportion is not even one ten-thousandth.

In real comparison, perhaps all the wizard apprentices in the southeast region combined are not as many as the wizard apprentices in his base.

Although the ones in his base are all first-level wizard apprentices.

But it is normal to think about it. After all, the current situation of the Starlight Continent is destined to be difficult to produce too many wizard apprentices.

At present, there are mainly two origins of wizard apprentices on the continent.

The first is a lucky person with wizard qualifications who accidentally comes into contact with enlightenment books, thereby stimulating spiritual power and embarking on the wizard path, accumulating strength and collecting resources bit by bit. If the luck and qualifications are good enough, they can be promoted to the second-level wizard apprentice, and then they can find an aristocratic force to join and stand on the stage.

The number of wizard apprentices born through this way is very small.

The second type is the children of aristocrats or royal families.

Some royal families and nobles who know the secrets of wizards or whose ancestors once had wizard apprentices will use enlightenment books to test the qualifications of their children.

Once a child is found to have wizard qualifications, they will do their best to train him.

There are relatively many such wizard apprentices, and because of their background, they are often more likely to be promoted to level three wizard apprentices.

For example, the scepter and the rose belong to the second origin.

Of course, there is another kind, that is, the wizard apprentice trains students by himself.

But this is very rare.

After all, the wizard apprentice's own resources are not enough, and generally there are few extra resources to train students.

It is unheard of for a wizard apprentice like Sunan to spend a lot of resources to train dozens of students at the same time.

Others are training the guardians of the country and the family, or students who inherit the mantle, while Sunan is cultivating his own power.

When this group of students grow up one after another, the base will become the most powerful wizard force on the Starlight Continent.

"From this information, there should be no formal wizards in the Starlight Continent now."

"At least there should be no formal wizards in the Southeast Region."

If there are still formal wizards in the Southeast Region of the Starlight Continent, it is impossible for the Starry Royal Family to have not found any clues for so many years.

As for other areas of the Starlight Continent, we have to continue investigating to find out.

"Next time we meet, I have to ask my brother to collect relevant information."

After putting down the information, Sunan turned his wrist, and a talisman stone appeared in his palm.

It was the key to find and enter the Starry Tower that he got from Evans.

"The next time it appears is twelve years later."

Sunan stared at the talisman stone, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

According to Evans, entering the Starry Tower requires passing the trial.

Considering that anyone with wizard qualifications has the qualifications to enter the Starry Tower, the entrants may not even be first-level wizard apprentices, so the difficulty of the trial for them should not be too high.

But there are other possibilities.

For example, wizard apprentices of different levels entering the Starry Tower will face different trials, with different levels of difficulty.

We have to wait until we actually enter the Starry Tower to know which one it is.

Sunan estimated that twelve years should be enough for him to build eighteen star rings and increase his mental power to more than 60 points.

The only thing left is to build the talent crystal.

This is the most difficult hurdle to becoming a formal wizard.

Many third-level wizard apprentices are blocked at this hurdle, wasting decades until their lifespans expire without taking the last step.

"Given the current situation of the Starlight Continent, even if I have the magic cube in my hand, it will take at least 40 to 50 years to build a talent crystal."

"But if I can find resources to assist in my promotion in the Starry Tower, I may be able to cross this hurdle in advance."

Sunan had a vague intuition that perhaps the opportunity for him to become a formal wizard was in the Starry Tower.
