Chapter 142 He is not interested in the Tower of Stars?
Astral Calendar Year 1256, Autumn Curtain Month (October).
The chill in the air is already very obvious, and this year's snow may fall earlier than in previous years.
In the meditation room.
Sunan sat cross-legged on the ground, slowly opened his eyes, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.
The fifteenth star ring was successfully constructed!
"Only three star rings are left."
Sunan breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed his joy, and opened the panel.
[Sunan Yanest, human male]
[Spirit 48.03/Constance 43.77]
[Skills]
Star Ring Meditation Lv16 (23/3000000)
Potion Making Lv4 (8345/10000)
Biological Transformation Lv3 (3025/6000)
Puppet Refining Lv5 (374/20000)
Magic Item Manufacturing Lv4 (5031/10000)
"Three million proficiency, according to the current progress, will take about two years."
"But if I can use the divine energy to increase my mental power later, the speed should be faster."
Sunan's mouth slightly raised.
The remaining three star rings should be completed within ten years.
Then only mental power and talent crystallization will be left.
Looking down, among the four skills, [Puppet Refining] has the fastest level increase, the only one in the class, level 5.
After all, Sunan has been frantically refining various golems in recent years, and his proficiency has increased rapidly.
On the contrary, the potion making that was originally far ahead, because most of the low-level potions were handed over to the apprentices in the base to make, Sunan only needed to synthesize, and the production was less, so the proficiency naturally increased slowly.
The same is true for magic item manufacturing and biological transformation, and practice is getting less and less.
Especially the latter, which is only used to upgrade the bloodline of Hidden Dragon and Death Bell Beater, and the proficiency has hardly increased.
Having said that, he is the only one in the entire Starlight Continent who can upgrade the four major skills to this level during the wizard apprentice stage.
Other apprentices don’t have such rich resources to practice.
Stretching, Sunan took out the trading house key, waited patiently for a while, and felt that the key was already activated.
He immediately activated the key and entered the jungle cabin.
Tonight is the jungle cabin’s March gathering.
The new members didn’t attend the last gathering. Night Owl said that the other party was busy, but they should be able to come this time.
After opening his eyes, Sunan looked around and found a new member.
The other person was wearing a gray robe. From the faintly visible enchanted patterns, it was obviously a magic item.
The robe covered the body tightly, and the only face exposed was also covered by a simple white mask.
The other members of the jungle hut were also looking at the new member calmly.
After waiting patiently for a while, seeing that no one else came in, Night Owl announced the start of the party.
"First, let me introduce the new member to everyone. This is the ninth wizard apprentice of the jungle hut."
Night Owl turned his head and looked at the gray-robed man with a white mask.
"According to the rules, the true identities of all members of the jungle hut are kept confidential and must not be disclosed actively. For the convenience of calling, we all have our own code names. You can also choose one."
The gray-robed man pondered for a moment and said, "Then call it Hunter."
As the gray-robed man's low voice fell, the word "Hunter" slowly appeared on the table in front of him.
"Welcome to join, Hunter."
Night Owl smiled slightly.
"Next, let's start tonight's transaction."
Then came the familiar transaction process.
Except for Heilin and the traveler, the rest of the members were present, and they took out items to trade with each other.
The hunter observed the transaction process calmly, and soon he found that the wizard apprentice called the player seemed to have a lot of resources.
Not only did he take out a large number of first-level potions and alchemical magic items for trading, but when buying things from others, he actually used very rare magic stones!
And looking at the other people's usual appearance, it seems that this situation is not unique to tonight's party.
Seemingly seeing the hunter's surprise, the scepter sitting next to him smiled and explained in a low voice: "The player is the richest among us, with a lot of resources. Since he joined the jungle cabin, the transactions we organized have risen by several levels."
"I see."
The hunter looked at Su Nan in surprise.
Noticing his gaze, Su Nan turned his head and nodded slightly.
The hunter hurriedly nodded in greeting.
He could see that the attitudes of others towards Su Nan were all respectful.
This is obviously not only because the other party has a lot of resources, but more likely because of the other party's strength.
This is a third-level wizard apprentice with profound background and strong strength.
The hunter made a judgment in his heart.
The transaction was carried out very quickly. During this period, the hunter also made two moves, buying a bottle of first-level potion and two sun grasses from Sunan and Qiangwei respectively.
Soon, it was the hunter's turn to sell items.
What surprised everyone was that he took out a stone with a talisman engraved on it.
Sunan's face under the mask suddenly became very strange.
In the puzzled eyes of everyone, the hunter said meaningfully:
"Everyone, this is a key."
"The key to enter the Starry Tower!"
After the voice fell, the five people present except Sunan were all shocked.
"The Starry Tower, one of the three major inheritances?"
"Really?!"
"Do you know where the Tower of Stars is?"
Even Night Owl couldn't help but cast a surprised look at the Hunter.
He never thought that the Hunter's first transaction after joining the Jungle Lodge would be such a heavyweight item!
The premise is that what the Hunter said is true.
As if he thought of something, Night Owl's eyes showed a thoughtful look.
The Scepter was the first to come back to his senses and said in a deep voice: "How do you prove that what you said is true?"
The Hunter seemed to have expected this situation a long time ago, and said slowly: "I can make a vow contract."
Hearing what the Hunter said, everyone no longer had any doubts, and their eyes looking at the talisman stone suddenly became particularly hot.
That's the Tower of Stars!
One of the only three wizard inheritances in the Starlight Continent!
It is said that as long as you can enter it, there is a great hope to be promoted to a formal wizard.
In the Starlight Continent where elements are scarce and resources are barren, this is almost the only hope for them, the third-level wizard apprentices, to be promoted to wizards!
"The Tower of Stars opens every twenty years, and the location of each opening is random and not fixed. Only those who hold the key can find the Tower of Stars and enter it. As far as I know, the next time the Tower of Stars opens is ten years later."
After hearing the hunter's words, everyone's eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Make an offer." The hoarse voice of the dead skeleton could not hide the passion, and his eyes stared straight at the hunter, "What do you want to trade?"
The hunter did not speak, but looked at Su Nan.
Seeing this, everyone's heart suddenly sank.
I almost forgot that there are players here!
If he wants the key of the Tower of Stars, no one here can compete with him!
But to their surprise, Su Nan shook his head: "I'm not interested, you guys trade."
The hunter was stunned.
He was still counting on the key of the Tower of Stars to make a lot of money from the wealthy Su Nan, but he didn't expect the other party to play cards out of the routine.
Is he not interested in the Tower of Stars?
It shouldn't be!
Is there a third-level wizard apprentice in the world who is not interested in the Tower of Stars?
The hunter was puzzled.
Rose, Scepter, Red Heart and Dead Corpse were also stunned, full of confusion, wondering why Su Nan was not interested.
Only Night Owl looked calm.
He had figured out the connection.
"The Tower of Stars, the Principality of Stars, hey, I didn't expect there was a connection between the two. I thought it was just a coincidence of the names."
When they came to their senses, they saw that the player really didn't intend to bid, and they were overjoyed.
As long as the player didn't participate, their hope of winning the key to the Tower of Stars would be greatly increased.
The hunter was disappointed and had to say: "My first choice is potions and gems, and other things can be considered depending on the value."
As soon as the voice fell, Dead Corpse couldn't wait to make the first bid:
"Gems worth 10,000 gold coins, plus five micro soul crystals!"
Following closely, the rest of the people were unwilling to lag behind and spoke up.
"Two bottles of tranquilizing potion, plus gems worth 20,000 gold coins!"
"Gems worth 30,000 gold coins!"
The price kept rising.
This is probably the most competitive transaction since the establishment of the jungle cabin.
Everyone showed a look of determination to get the key.
Sunan sat calmly aside, watching the five people bidding against each other.
If possible, he also wanted the key of the Starry Tower.
Although he already had it, he could give it to Key.
But looking at the looks of Night Owl and others, it was obvious that they were determined to get the key and were willing to pay a high price for it.
If you have to pay a high price to get the key, then I will decline it.
Anyway, letting Key enter the Starry Tower is also to get the Dawn Potion that can prolong life. At worst, he can wait for him to enter the Starry Tower in the future and find a way to get a bottle and give it to Key.
Compared to fighting for the key of the Starry Tower, Sunan was more curious about how the hunter got this thing.
After all, as far as he knew, the key to the Tower of Stars seemed to be owned by only Evans.
"Could it be that the hunter knew Evans? Or did he snatch it from Evans?"
"Speaking of which, Night Owl once said that the hunter escaped from Sauro of the Eternal Life Society. Does this have anything to do with the Eternal Life Society?"
Several possibilities flashed through Sunan's mind.
At this moment, the bidding for the key to the Tower of Stars finally ended.
In the end, the Scepter won the key to the Tower of Stars at a high price of thirteen bottles of tranquilizing potions and gems worth sixty-two thousand gold coins.
Sunan was not surprised by this result.
After all, before he joined the Jungle Hut, the Scepter was the most generous member of the Jungle Hut.
And if his guess was correct, and the Scepter really came from the royal family of the Cangjin Empire, then his generosity would be explained.
The Cangjin Empire is the most powerful country in the southeast region of the continent, no one else.
The tranquilizing potion is a first-level potion that assists meditation, worth about three hundred gold coins.
In the end, the Scepter spent nearly 66,000 gold coins to get the key to the Starry Tower.
This price is not low.
However, judging from the Scepter's appearance, it is obvious that he is very satisfied with the result.
Rose, Red Heart and Dead Wounds looked a little unwilling.
It's a pity that they are not as wealthy as others, so they can only hold back their unwillingness.
Sunan looked at the hunter deeply.
Since the other party is willing to take out the key of the Tower of Stars for trading, it means that he has another key, or perhaps more than one.
Perhaps the same transaction will happen again in the future.
Frost Month (November).
Snowflakes fall on the ground.
The snow really fell early this year.
Compared with the icy surface where the wind is howling, the temperature of the underground world is just a little lower.
The lion warriors in Youhu City are still naked and walking on the street.
In the laboratory of Base No. 2.
The wide workbench is filled with densely packed test tubes, each of which contains blood extracted from the body of the death knell striker, with a uniform capacity of 100 ml.
"This much blood should be enough."
Sunan murmured, opened the Rubik's Cube and put in blood one by one, staring at the synthesis interface.
As more and more blood is put in, the blood concentration of the blood on the synthesis interface is also increasing.
59.13d.79q.34.11%
When there were less than eight test tubes left on the workbench, the blood concentration on the synthesis interface finally broke through 100%, and the information suddenly changed.
[The blood of the hissing alien insect, purity 1.25%, contains 1 standard unit of divine energy. After being injected into the human body, there is a very small probability of fusion with the blood of the hissing alien insect, and a high probability of rejection reaction. In severe cases, it will lead to death. The stronger the physique and spirit, the higher the fusion success rate and the lower the rejection reaction. 】
"Success!"
Su Nan was overjoyed.
As he thought, even if the blood concentration of the death knell striker is not increased, divine energy can be produced by synthesizing blood.
Although the divine energy contained is very little from the description text, it at least proves that his method is correct.
Su Nan immediately extracted the divine energy from the blood and absorbed it as soon as possible.
Unlike the divine energy obtained from the gods, the divine energy in this naturally generated divine creature has no power of faith, no problem of faith pollution, and is very pure and can be absorbed directly.
After digesting the divine energy, Sunan opened the panel and found that his spirit had increased by 0.25.
"Not bad!"
Sunan smiled with satisfaction.
After all, there is only 1 standard unit of divine energy, which is far less than the amount extracted from the god's remains. It is already very good to have a 0.25 increase in spirit.
The key is that this is sustainable.
As long as the death knell striker is still there, blood can be continuously drawn to artificially produce divine energy, which is equivalent to adding a means to regularly increase mental power.
"It takes about eight months of blood to produce 1 standard unit of divine energy."
"On average, the mental power can be increased by about 0.37 per year."
"No, that's not right. The later the mental power is, the harder it is to improve. The subsequent increase should gradually decrease."
"But even so, it can shorten the time it takes for my mental power to break through 60."
Sunan thought of the death knell striker in the prison area.
Considering that it has made such a great contribution, we will take it out of the prison area and change it to a more comfortable environment.
Otherwise, living in a dark prison and having blood drawn every day will sooner or later cause depression.
Of course, the defense should be tighter.
It just so happens that the adamantine golem is not needed now, so let it be responsible for guarding the death knell striker.
