Chapter 211 New Target

Su Nan took a sip of the black tea, savored it, and then answered slowly:

"Strictly speaking, the four-ring legend is the pinnacle of human knights."

Key frowned, but then reacted and his expression changed slightly.

"You mean, if you go up, you will transcend the human level?"

Su Nan nodded in appreciation and said, "If you want to break through the four-ring legend and go to the next level, there are only two ways to go."

"The first is to take the semi-elemental route and become an elemental knight."

"The second is to take the blood fusion route and become a blood knight."

Key's eyes lit up and asked hurriedly, "What is the difference between these two?"

Su Nan said: "The elemental knight's control over the elemental power will be greatly improved. The semi-elemental body is basically immune to physical attacks, and the resistance to energy attacks will also be greatly enhanced. It can basically be regarded as an enhanced version of the four-ring legendary knight."

The biggest difference between the legendary knight and the great knight is that the elemental power has been awakened.

So the elemental knight can be regarded as a legendary knight whose abilities in all aspects have been enhanced and has a semi-elemental body.

"The specific ability of the Blood Knight depends on the fused blood."

"However, whether it is an Elemental Knight or a Blood Knight, their life forms have essentially changed and they can no longer be considered human beings."

"And in terms of life span alone, although Elemental Knights and Blood Knights are not as good as formal wizards, they are not inferior to third-level wizard apprentices, and their life spans are generally between 150 and 200 years."

Key's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Strength improvement is secondary, the key is life span.

Who doesn't want to live longer?

If you can be promoted to an Elemental Knight or a Blood Knight, you can have a few decades more life span out of thin air, which is the most attractive benefit for him.

"Then how can you be promoted to an Elemental Knight or a Blood Knight?" Key asked impatiently.

"Biological transformation." Sunan said.

Neither semi-elementalization nor blood fusion can be achieved through cultivation.

Like wizard apprentices, these two methods can only be achieved through biological transformation and potions.

The difference is that it is relatively easier for wizard apprentices to transform themselves.

In addition to knowing more about their own bodies, it is also because of the lower level of strength.

For example, several wizard apprentices of the Eternal Life Society, even if they are semi-elementalized and have fused blood, their power level is only three-ring legendary.

But if you want to transform a four-ring legendary knight who has already cultivated to the pinnacle of ordinary knights, you must have a wizard to do it.

And it must be a wizard who has mastered the biological transformation technology to a certain level.

So in the wizard era, elemental knights and bloodline knights are basically followers of a certain wizard, or belong to a certain wizard force.

"Then you."

Ke Yi did not say it clearly, but the meaning was very clear.

Sunan shook his head: "My biological transformation technology is not up to standard."

To transform elemental knights and bloodline knights, the [Biological Transformation] skill must reach at least level 5, and he is only level 4 now, and the progress bar is still more than two-thirds away.

Seeing that Keyi was a little disappointed, Sunan had to say, "Don't worry, my biological transformation technology should be able to meet the requirements in at most ten years."

Now he has to strengthen the body and blood of Hidden Dragon from time to time, and occasionally participates in the implementation of the sub-dragon bloodline improvement plan. Although the proficiency of [Biological Transformation] increases slowly, it can climb to level 5 in more than ten years.

"Besides, you also need time to increase your strength to the limit of the four-ring legend."

Keyi thought so, and his face showed joy again, and then asked, "Which route do you think is more suitable for me?"

Sunan thought for a while and said, "The training of elemental knights depends on the environment. With the current energy shortage in the Starlight Continent, elemental knights are subject to too many restrictions. It is better to choose bloodline knights."

"It just so happens that there are many high-level sub-dragon bloodlines in the Dragon Forest. If you don't mind, you can choose one of them as the bloodline for future fusion."

"Is Hidden Dragon not okay?"

Keyi has seen Hidden Dragon after it evolved into a giant dragon, and the terrifying sense of oppression has left a deep impression on him to this day.

"The physique of the four-ring legendary knight cannot bear the dragon blood." Sunan spread his hands.

Blood fusion also has its own requirements, the stronger the better.

In addition to whether it is compatible with one's own physique, it also depends on the physical strength.

Dragons are creatures that can be compared with formal wizards. The four-ring legendary knight can't bear the physical evolution after the fusion of blood.

Hearing this, Keyi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but soon cheered up.

"It seems that I have to visit Dragon Forest several times."

After talking about the knight's advancement, Sunan changed the subject and talked about another topic.

"You asked me about the Starry Tower before, do you remember?"

"Of course." Keyi nodded.

At that time, he was very confused about how Sunan attacked the Starry Tower, but Sunan didn't say much at the time, so he didn't ask more questions.

"I didn't tell you at the time because I was afraid you would worry too much, but now that the empire has been unified, it's time to talk to you about this."

Hearing the seriousness in Sunan's tone, Key couldn't help but show a solemn expression.

Sunan then briefly told the story of the wizard's return and the Dark Throne more than 700 years later.

After hearing this, Key was stunned and looked dazed.

He had heard Sunan mention the Elemental Desert and the wizards' expedition to the multiverse thousands of years ago, but he didn't know that those wizards would return to the Starlight Continent more than seven hundred years later.

This is undoubtedly a very important event!

In comparison, the Empire's unification of the Starlight Continent is nothing.

After a while, Keyi digested this shocking news, came back to his senses from his trance, and said with a frown:

"Once those wizards return, will the Starlight Continent..."

Sunan understood what he meant and shook his head and said: "According to the rules of the wizard world, the Starlight Continent is already my exclusive plane. Unless they want to make an enemy of me, other wizards generally won't try to get involved in the Starlight Continent."

Keyi breathed a sigh of relief, but then showed a worried expression again.

"What about the [Dark Throne]?"

A force with thousands of wizards, which was unimaginable to Keyi before.

How huge and terrifying power should such a force have?

It's really scary to think about it!

"Don't worry too much. If it doesn't work, we can join the wizard forces that are hostile to the Dark Throne."

Sunan comforted him, and then said:

"But the most fundamental thing is to improve our own strength."

"In the next few days, I plan to build a wizard tower, and I need the full cooperation of the empire."

"No problem." Key agreed without hesitation.

At the end, he felt a little complicated again.

The information he heard from Sunan today really had a great impact on his cognition.

The multiverse in the past was more of a symbol to him.

But after really listening to Sunan's narration, he deeply realized the vastness of the multiverse.

Compared to the vast multiverse, the Starlight Continent is just an insignificant dust.

Originally, after the Star Empire unified the Starlight Continent, Key still had a kind of pride and pride, but now this pride and pride has long been shattered by the impact, replaced by the sigh of self-insignificance.

Compared to those forces in the multiverse that have existed for tens of millions of years, the Starlight Continent undoubtedly still has a long way to go.

However, after sighing, Key's heart was ignited with a burning desire to fight again.

Originally, he had a sense of emptiness after achieving his goal, but now, a more ambitious goal appeared in front of him.

Although he was unlikely to live to see the return of the wizard, no matter what, he wanted to make the empire as strong as possible and continue it better in the future.

Seeing the change in Key's expression, Sunan nodded imperceptibly.

The eldest brother's willpower was much stronger than he expected. He was worried that Key would be worried after hearing about the [Dark Throne], but now it seems that he was worrying too much.

Starlight Calendar 1282.

This is the most peaceful year in the Starlight Continent.

With the unification of the continent by the Starry Empire and the vigorous suppression of sporadic rebellious forces, the situation on the continent has completely stabilized and entered a period of peaceful and tranquil development.

Thundering Month (April).

The emperor issued an order, and knight academies began to be established in various parts of the empire.

Except for a few Royal Knights Colleges that are only for the children of nobles, most Knights Colleges are open to the general public, treating the middle class, civilians and farmers equally.

As long as you can pass the entrance test, all tuition and miscellaneous fees are waived.

In addition, the Empire has also begun to vigorously promote and popularize basic education, and established many basic colleges among the people. The tuition is low, even civilians and farmers can afford it.

Although many civilians and farmers have no intention of sending their children to school due to the pressure of life, more people are happy and excited about this policy from the bottom of their hearts.

Because the first condition for participating in the wizard qualification test is literacy.

After the Empire's propaganda over the years, even the lowest-level farmers know that becoming a wizard is the fastest way to cross the class and become a superior person.

Once you pass the qualification test, it means a step to heaven.

You must know that wizards are superior people who even noble masters dare not neglect.

For the people at the bottom, wizards are a ray of hope in difficult lives.

Although slim, it is not impossible after all.

Even if their children fail to pass the qualification test, literacy can be a plus point when applying for the Knight Academy.

It is precisely because of these benefits that the resistance to the implementation of universal basic education has been reduced a lot.

Although it will take a very long time to truly popularize basic education on a large scale, at least there is a good start.

In addition to the Knight Academy and basic education, more decrees were issued one after another, showing the world the reform determination of the emperor who was high above.

This surprised many nobles.

They thought that after unifying the continent, even if His Majesty the Emperor did not lose his ambition and indulge in pleasure, he should not have an enterprising mentality.

Who would have thought that His Majesty the Emperor would be more diligent and strong than before.

It was really unexpected.

Only a few great nobles like Brad and Jordan, who were close to His Majesty the Emperor, vaguely knew that all this was related to Lord Sunan.

Longlin, Starlight Academy.

The central clock tower, where the tutors live and practice, is also the tallest building in the entire academy.

Standing on the open platform on the top floor of the clock tower, you can clearly overlook the entire academy.

Looking at the students coming and going below, Fakado couldn't help but show a sigh of emotion.

In the blink of an eye, he has been in Starlight Academy for more than half a year.

The longer he stays here and the deeper he understands Starlight Academy, the more he is amazed.

Before this, he had never thought that there was such a model of training wizard apprentices in the world.

No, it's not that he didn't think of it, but the reality made it impossible for him to think in this direction.

After all, their family members don't have enough resources for themselves, how could there be extra resources to train others.

"Unbelievable." Innocent exclaimed, "Where did the Star Alliance get so many rare resources?"

"Maybe they collected them from the underground world. After all, the Star Alliance unified the entire underground world." Another wizard apprentice Tulio said.

Mentioning this, the four of them sighed again.

When they learned that the Star Alliance had unified the entire underground world, the four of them almost stared out of their eyes.

That is a vast, deep and mysterious underground world, with countless dangerous places, powerful and terrifying creatures everywhere, and countless city-states and tribes entrenched.

When they occasionally enter the underground world, they have to be cautious and extremely cautious.

And such a terrible place was conquered and unified by the Star Alliance!

The moment they learned this fact, they realized how powerful the Star Alliance was!

The desire to join the Starlight Academy also took root and grew.

When they saw the list of resources that the academy instructors could exchange from the scepter, the four of them almost instantly determined to join the Starlight Academy.

After seeing the list of resources, including a wide range of third-level potions, glimmer-level magic items, adamantine golems, various rare metals and rare magic plants, Fakado suddenly felt that the Russell family, which was known as a thousand-year wizard family with a deep foundation, seemed to be no different from beggars in front of the Star Alliance.

If he had known that the Star Alliance had such rich resources, he would have directly led the Russell family to join the Star Alliance, and would not have flirted with the coalition.

After his thoughts flew away for a long time, Fakado retracted his gaze and turned back to look at the three tribesmen.

"What do you think?"

Innocent shrugged and said with a smile: "What's there to hesitate about? Such a good opportunity is in front of us. If we don't cherish it, it would be too stupid."

"That's right." The other two nodded in agreement.

Fakado laughed and said, "Then it's decided."

He is very optimistic about the future of Starlight Academy.

This academy will definitely become a cradle for wizard apprentices in the future.

Perhaps in the distant future, Starlight Continent will usher in the era of wizards.

During this period, he can witness the arrival of this era as a mentor of Starlight Academy.
