Chapter 155 Clues to the Black Forest, Repairing the Elemental Pool
In the brightly lit reception room.
Sunan and the traveler sat opposite each other, talking and laughing.
"How did you rest these three days?"
"Very well." The traveler smiled, "I haven't lived in such a comfortable room in the underground world for a long time. In the past, I lived in caves for convenience. Occasionally, when I entered a city-state, I could only stay in a simple tavern."
Sunan became interested and asked curiously, "Which city-state is it?"
"The city-state of the dark elves is more than a thousand kilometers away from here."
"Can you tell me in detail?"
"Of course." The traveler agreed happily.
During the three days he lived in Youhu City, he visited the entire city-state. Although he was unable to visit the most interesting base No. 2, he also had a general understanding of the power of Youhu City.
The current military strength of Youhu City is far greater than that of eight years ago.
It can be said that the military strength of Youhu City alone is enough to destroy some small countries on the surface.
Moreover, the forces under Sunan's command are not just Youhu City, but also Matu and Orson.
Although I haven't visited them specifically, from the information I've learned indirectly over the past few days, the military strength of these two city-states is probably not much inferior to that of Youhu City.
The three city-states merged together to become the Star Alliance.
From this name, we can see that Sunan's ambitions are definitely more than just three city-states.
The more he learned, the more he felt that Sunan was unfathomable.
He even felt that what he knew so far was just the tip of the iceberg of the forces and resources under Sunan's command!
If there is anyone else on the continent who can be promoted to a formal wizard, the traveler thinks that Sunan is definitely one of the most promising candidates.
Facing such a person with unlimited potential, as casual as he is, he can't help but want to make friends and build a good relationship.
If some information can win Sunan's favor, it is undoubtedly worth it.
"That dark elf city is called the Spider City, where twelve dark elf families live. The matriarchs of all the families form the Supreme Council and rule the entire city."
"There are more than 6,000 dark elves in the Spider City alone, and there are no less than 50,000 vassal races and even more slaves. Whether in terms of foundation or strength, it can be firmly ranked in the top three in the entire Southeast Region."
Spider City?
Related memories immediately emerged in Su Nan's mind.
There are as many races in the underground world as stars.
In terms of population alone, the dark elves are not even in the top 1,000.
But in terms of combat power, the dark elves can definitely be ranked in the top three.
If the dark elves did not like to fight among themselves and waste most of their energy on internal power struggles, they would probably have unified the entire Southeast Region long ago.
Su Nan vaguely remembered that when the elements revived in the last life, the dark elves seemed to have unified the entire Southeast Region of the underground world.
I don't know how they achieved internal unity?
In other words, the Star Alliance and the Spider City are only less than 2,000 kilometers apart. Whether it is the Star Alliance's external expansion or the Spider City's expansion of power, it seems that they will collide sooner or later.
It seems that we have to take precautions early.
Thoughts are racing, but Su Nan's face remains calm. He patiently listens to the traveler's story and occasionally interrupts to ask a few questions.
It must be admitted that the traveler's understanding of the distribution of forces in the underground world is much more detailed than the meager memory in his head.
Listening to the traveler's narration, Su Nan's mind quickly outlines a detailed power distribution map covering a thousand miles of the Star Alliance.
With this power distribution map, the Star Alliance's future expansion will undoubtedly be much smoother.
"Do you know where there is a silver mine?"
After the traveler finished speaking, Su Nan suddenly asked.
The traveler thought about it carefully and said hesitantly, "Yes, there are, but they are all owned by someone."
"It doesn't matter." Sunan didn't care about this, "Where is it?"
"It's near the Giant Eye City. It's a medium-sized silver mine, which belongs to the Giant Eye City."
Sunan was immediately refreshed.
Even if only half of the medium-sized silver mine is mined, it is enough to make up for the gap in refining the secret doll.
We must get this silver mine!
The Giant Eye City mentioned by the traveler is located 300 kilometers north of the Star Alliance, just farther away from the area where the Eye Demon Tribe was discovered before.
Sunan guessed that the Eye Demon Tribe was probably the loser of the power struggle in the Giant Eye City and was exiled to the wild.
The ruler of the Giant Eye City is a Nest Mother Eye.
It sounds like a female, but in fact, like ordinary Eye Demons, there is no concept of gender.
This name actually comes from its special ability to dominate other Eye Demons.
Through this ability, the Eye of the Nest Mother can often subdue a large number of eye demons to serve itself, which is also the origin of the Eye Demon City-State.
The Eye of the Nest Mother itself is not very powerful, only slightly stronger than ordinary eye demons, and at best it is at the level of a legendary ring.
The tricky thing is the group of eye demons under its command.
There are hundreds or thousands of them, and there are many legendary eye demon mutants.
Judging from the words of the traveler alone, the Giant Eye City is stronger than the original Lake City.
However, Sunan did not take it too seriously.
Sending a gold golem to lead the golem army is enough to easily flatten the Giant Eye City.
After deciding to leave this matter to the Red Widow, Sunan then brought up another topic.
"Speaking of which, why don't you build your own power?"
"With your strength, it shouldn't be difficult to take down a city-state?"
The traveler smiled and shook his head: "Forget it, I'm not that type, and I don't like to spend too much time on developing my power. In comparison, I prefer to explore and adventure around and see more scenery. There are still many things on this continent. There are many beautiful views that I have never seen before.”
"But if you don't establish your own power, it will be difficult to collect resources."
"I'm not alone." The traveler shrugged, "I still cooperate with a few big nobles, that's enough."
After a pause, he showed a sad expression again, sighed and said:
"Besides, what if we collect more resources?"
"The current situation in Starlight Continent, if you want to be promoted to a wizard, it cannot be solved with more resources."
"The only way to break this deadlock is to find the legendary three wizards' inheritance. I have been looking for them all these years."
Speaking of this, the traveler's eyes flashed slightly.
Sunan's heart skipped a beat when she saw this, and she stared at the traveler with piercing eyes.
"Did you find a clue?"
The traveler hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and admitted.
"That's right."
"Which wizard inherits it?"
"Black Forest."
Su Nan's eyes lit up and he smiled slightly: "Well, I won't take advantage of you. You tell me the clues to the Black Forest, and I tell you the clues to the Tower of Stars. How about that?"
"Deal!" The traveler agreed without hesitation.
Sunan was startled, then quickly reacted.
When Demon Hand and Xue Mouth communicated before, they mentioned the key to the Tower of Stars. It seems that the traveler heard about it at that time and took it seriously. At this time, he mentioned that the clues to the Black Forest were waiting for him here.
This guy is actually cunning.
Meeting Sunan's meaningful gaze, the traveler smiled awkwardly and said haha:
"I can make an oath contract and guarantee that the information I give you is 100% true!"
Of course Sunan would not refuse.
After making an oath contract, the two began to exchange information.
"I got the clue about the Black Forest in the Demon Spider City."
"The third-generation matriarch of the Philier family, one of the twelve families in Demonic Spider City, is said to have entered a strange forest and gained powerful power from it. Only then did she defeat all competitors and succeed the family matron. position."
"I have sneaked into the Philier family and checked their books. This incident is indeed recorded in it, but there is no way to know more detailed information."
"According to my guess, if this matter is true, then such important information must only be passed down by word of mouth. Perhaps only the successive matrons of the Philier family know about it."
The Phillier family?
Sunan's eyes flashed with thought.
No matter what, now that we have clues, we must investigate.
It seems that contact with the Demon Spider City is inevitable.
Even if the other party doesn't come to his door, he will still go to him.
After coming back to his senses, Sunan also truthfully told the clues about the Tower of Stars.
"The Jungle Lodge has recently added a new member called Hunter. Have you heard about it?"
The traveler shook his head. He had not seen a night owl for almost two years, and he had no way of knowing the recent movements of the jungle hut.
"In a previous party, the hunter sold a key to the Tower of Stars. With the key, you can locate the Tower of Stars when it appears and enter it. I guess the hunter probably has more keys in his hand. You Maybe we can start from this aspect.”
When the traveler heard this, he secretly cried out that it was a pity.
He would have gone to the party if he had known that a rare item like the Starry Tower Key would appear.
It's a pity that during that time, he was so busy being hunted by the devil's hands that he couldn't attend to the party at all.
"Hunter? It seems that I have to find a way to contact him in private." The traveler thought to himself.
At this time, Su Nan suddenly threw something. The traveler subconsciously caught it. When he lowered his head and looked down, he found that it was a space ring.
"This is..." The traveler cast a doubtful look at Sunan.
"As a courtesy, you gave me so much information, so I have to give you some gifts." Su Nan said with a smile.
The traveler opened the space ring and was shocked to find a hundred magic stones lying inside.
This reward is too generous!
However, the temptation of the magic stone was too great, and the traveler was reluctant to give up. He hesitated for a while, but finally accepted it.
"Thanks." He said seriously.
Sunan waved his hand, indicating that you're welcome.
Frankly speaking, in addition to the clues from the Black Forest, the information the traveler gave him about the distribution of forces was definitely worth hundreds of magic stones.
Moreover, doing so can also leave a generous impression on travelers.
If there is other information in the future, I believe the traveler will be happy to trade with him.
The next day after exchanging information, the travelers said goodbye and left.
Sunan didn't hold back, and got busy after he left.
In addition to daily practice, most of the energy is spent on two tasks.
One is to increase the bloodline concentration of the Hidden Dragon.
Another one is to repair the element pool.
The cost of repairing the element pool is not high, and the materials consumed are only 10,000 gold coins. The key is technical issues.
Without the mental power of a formal wizard, the difficulty of repairing many places suddenly skyrocketed.
A large number of precise talisman drawings require you to start over once you fail. Su Nan often has to fail dozens or hundreds of times before succeeding. It feels like he is dreaming back to the time when he first tried to make a potion.
After more than three months, Sunan finally completed the repair of the elemental pool.
Dragon Forest, the top floor of Dragon Skeleton Tower.
Looking at the well-repaired square pool in front of him, Sunan let out a long sigh and smiled with joy from the bottom of his heart.
The restoration of the element pool is of great significance.
It marks that the development of his forces is about to enter a new stage.
"The rest is to activate it."
Sunan took out the gems that had been prepared long ago from the space ring, and simply carved them into eight-sided diamonds, and embedded them all into the magic circle, as if they were one.
Buzz!
The entire element pool suddenly vibrated violently, and the surrounding space suddenly cracked.
The scenery behind these cracks is strange, including the abyss-like sea, the endless sky, the sea of fire that burns the sky and boils the earth, the thick and solid crust, and so on.
It is a series of elemental planes!
After a strange blend of energy, strands of deep blue water flowed into the element pool.
This is not real water, but elemental energy condensed into liquid. It will appear in the form of water on the surface of the element pool.
A most gentle form of energy expression!
With the successful establishment of the elemental pool, a rich and active energy also enveloped the entire Dragon Skeleton Tower.
"Success!"
Su Nan took a deep breath, feeling the breath of elemental energy in the air, and his expression was quite happy.
The elemental pool will continue to spread energy outward.
Within the range of this energy, the wizard (apprentice)'s mental power recovery speed will be significantly accelerated, and the meditation efficiency will also be slightly improved. It can even delay aging to a certain extent and increase a person's lifespan.
In other words, people who live in the Dragon Skeleton Tower for a long time can obtain a buff of longevity, rapid recovery and improved meditation efficiency.
And the larger the elemental pool, the better the effect.
Su Nan estimated that the micro elemental pool should be able to increase the mental power recovery speed by 20% and the meditation efficiency by about 5%.
If you live there for a long time, you can also increase your lifespan by 5 to 10 years.
Looking at the slowly increasing water level in the elemental pool, Su Nan's mood became more and more cheerful.
The element pool uses the most primitive element channel mechanism, which generates magic power through the surge of elements and flows back into the element pool. The operation efficiency is not high, but fortunately there is no need to worry about exhaustion. As long as the element pool is not damaged and is maintained regularly, it can be used for thousands of years.
With the energy provided by the element pool, the ecological environment in the Dragon Forest can be gradually restored, and there is no need to worry about insufficient energy.
The only pity is that the energy provided by the element pool is stable but poor, not enough to do too many things.
After calming down, Su Nan opened the three-dimensional model of the Dragon Forest.
The space barrier of the Dragon Forest has now been repaired, except for the Dragon Skeleton Tower and Area 2.
The places that need to be repaired in the Dragon Skeleton Tower are mainly the culture tanks and various experimental facilities in the transformation area, the magic crystal forging furnace in the workshop area, the targets in the training area, and the overall magic transmission pipeline, etc.
Years of abandonment have caused various problems in these facilities to a greater or lesser extent, and they need to be repaired one by one.
Fortunately, the Dragon Skeleton Tower has a complete self-repair function, plus the assistance of Butler No. 1, as long as there is sufficient energy, it does not take too much time to repair.
"No. 1, start repairing the Dragon Skeleton Tower." Sunan gave the order.
"Start repairing the Dragon Skeleton Tower, it is estimated to take 18 days, 15 hours, 25 minutes and 16 seconds."
Sunan nodded secretly.
Once the repairs in the Dragon Skeleton Tower are completed, we can start to move the base.
As for Area 2, it won't be too late to repair it slowly after the energy is fully restored.
Anyway, it will take a while for us to find dragons to cultivate.
Without the dragons, Area 2 can only be used as a super large magic plant garden even if it is restored intact.
At the end of the month, please give me a monthly ticket. Insomnia thanks everyone here!
