Chapter 214 Development Base

"Meow, Sunan!"

Amy's perception was as sharp as ever, and she immediately noticed Sunan's arrival.

The little guy disappeared instantly, and when he reappeared, he was already on Sunan's shoulder.

"Meow, did you go to the wizard tower again?" Amy asked as she licked her paws.

Su Nan smiled and said: "The elemental pool was just activated today. The energy there is more abundant than the Dragon Skeleton Tower. You and the Hidden Dragon can rest there in the future."

The hidden dragon who came over heard this and immediately screamed excitedly.

After evolving into a giant dragon, it suddenly became very sensitive to the concentration of energy particles, and especially couldn't bear to stay outside. Now it basically doesn't leave the dragon forest.

When Sunan was not using the control center, he would come and stay near the element pool just to enjoy the high-concentration energy particle environment for a while.

Now that I heard that there are places with higher concentrations of energy particles, I was naturally very happy.

Amy, on the other hand, does not have high requirements for energy particle concentration. After all, its power level is far from reaching the upper limit of energy particle concentration in Starlight Continent.

Having said that, Amy was also very happy.

"Okay, I can finally live in the wizard tower, meow!"

Before it fell asleep, it had been living in the wizard's tower, and it missed its living environment at that time.

Although the environment of Dragon Forest is not bad, it is not as good as Wizard Tower.

Sunan also became interested and asked about Master Amy's wizard tower.

"Master's wizard tower?"

"I remember it seemed like a large wizard tower, it was very big and spacious inside!"

As expected of a true spiritual descendant, wizard towers are all large.

Suddenly, Su Nan suddenly remembered something and asked: "What level of wizard is your master?"

"Meow, the master is a third-level wizard."

"But before I go to bed, the master seems to be sprinting to be promoted to a true spirit wizard, meow."

A true spiritual wizard!

Sunan sighed secretly.

Due to their genetic heritage, the chance of a true spirit descendant being promoted to a true spirit wizard is naturally much higher than that of an ordinary wizard. Coupled with a deep background, no shortage of resources, and the guidance of family elders, two or three out of ten can usually be promoted to a true spirit wizard. .

Although this number may not be high, it is actually an exaggeration.

For ordinary wizards, not one out of a thousand might be promoted to a true spirit wizard.

More than a thousand years have passed, and Master Amy may have been promoted to a true spirit wizard.

"I'm going to visit the Wizard Tower!"

Amy was a kid at heart, so she pulled Hidden Dragon towards the wizard tower without a few words of conversation.

Su Nan laughed and shook his head, then thought about teleporting to the laboratory.

With the assistance of Talling No. 1, the subsequent research on the talent crystal model should go much more smoothly. He can try to refer to more documents to increase inspiration.

As for the type of the second talent crystal model, Sunan has already made a decision.

The first talent model ‘Liquid Metal’ is of both offensive and defensive type.

Then for the second and third talent models, it is best to have one extreme defense and one extreme attack.

Sunan now has many attack methods, so the second talent crystal model prioritizes defense.

As for the original model, he thought over and over again and finally chose the witchcraft [Forbidden Zone].

The invisible force field in the [Forbidden Zone] can not only defend against attacks in all directions without blind spots, but can also cause gravity suppression on approaching enemies. Isn't weakening the enemy another form of defense?

Limited by the materials, the power of [Forbidden Zone] can only go so far.

But if the improvement is transformed into a talent crystal model, the power can be further expanded and strengthened.

Su Nan is looking forward to the final product.

Time flies by, like quicksand on the fingertips, slipping away quietly.

Starlight calendar year 1291, New Flower Moon (May).

Ten years have passed since the Starry Empire unified the continent.

The wounds caused by the war have long been repaired, and people have returned to their former peaceful lives.

Under the emperor's determined reforms, the entire empire was thriving and developing.

The people living at the bottom have the most obvious feelings. The happier life than before makes them heartily support the empire's rule.

In the eyes of some caring people, what they feel most deeply is that the number of knights they see in life has increased.

In the past, even if knights were not nobles, they were followers of nobles, and their status was much nobler than that of ordinary people.

But now there are many knights from civilian backgrounds.

In the military, this change is even more obvious.

In the past, a trainee knight with outstanding strength could serve as an officer, but now, even the lowest junior officer must be a knight.

Cavaliers are becoming more and more common.

If the discoveries made by interested people were just vague guesses, then the report in front of Sunan was filled with detailed data.

Just in the past four years, knight academies across the empire have graduated more than 20,000 knight students.

There are hundreds of thousands of trainee knight-level students.

If you include the seven knight academies under the Star Alliance and the more than ten royal knight academies in the empire, the number of knight students is approaching 40,000.

——The seven knight academies under the Star Alliance alone have graduated more than 10,000 knight students in four years.

In the past, this was simply unimaginable.

But now, it is very common.

In fact, if most of the Star Alliance's dragon blood fruit and dragon blood potion were not used to supply the Magic Pattern Knights, the seven knight academies and those royal knight academies, and only a small amount was supplied to ordinary knight academies, the number of knights trained each year could double.

Retracting his gaze, Sunan turned to look at another report.

The report was written by Qiangwei, and the content was about a new fruit-type magic plant she had recently developed.

This magic plant has the effect of strengthening the physique, but the effect is much weaker than that of dragon blood fruit, about one-fifth of that of dragon blood fruit.

To be honest, it is a bit of a stretch to call it a magic plant.

However, although the effect is weak, this fruit does not require a high growth environment.

Even in the current environment of the Starlight Continent, it can be cultivated and grown without the need to arrange a gathering array.

In Sunan's view, this is the most valuable point.

This means that this fruit does not need to be planted in the magic plant garden, and even ordinary people can plant it.

If this fruit can be vigorously promoted and popularized in the empire, the problem of insufficient number of dragon blood fruit and dragon blood potion can be reduced to a certain extent.

Without hesitation, Sunan directly wrote on the report to the emperor of the empire, suggesting that the planting should be vigorously promoted, and then he gave Qiangwei a considerable amount of contribution value as a reward.

It is worth mentioning that Qiangwei named this fruit Star Fruit.

The significance of Star Fruit is self-evident.

With Star Fruit, the Star Empire can cultivate more knights.

Sunan never thought that as long as he focused on improving his own strength or only cared about the development of the Star Alliance.

This behavior can certainly get relatively rich benefits in the short term, but it is very short-sighted in the long run.

The Starlight Continent is his base.

To expand and develop the base is also to increase his foundation. With a strong enough foundation support, he can go further in the future.

That's why he spared no effort to support Keyi's reform.

Popularizing basic education, creating a knight academy, and more reform policies are all subtly enhancing the strength of the Starlight Continent.

The stronger the Starlight Continent is, the greater the benefits he can get from it as the actual controller.

"It's a pity that there are no magic stone veins on the continent, otherwise we can develop magic technology and improve the basic technology level."

Magic technology refers to the applied technology developed with magic stone as energy, including magic stone lamps, magic carriages, magic spaceships, magic weapons and other machines used in the fields of people's livelihood and military.

The two prerequisites for the development of magic technology are rich magic stone veins and a strong wizard civilization (with enough wizard apprentices and formal wizards).

The current Starlight Continent does not have these two prerequisites.

The latter can be gradually achieved over time.

But the former cannot be achieved unless the elements are revived and after a long period of recovery and accumulation.

As for synthesizing magic stones with magic cubes, Sunan has never thought about it.

Once magic technology is promoted, the number of magic stones required for the area of ​​Starlight Continent will be an astronomical figure, which is definitely not something he can meet alone.

After approving the documents, Sunan stretched and left the study.

He is now in the wizard tower that is still under construction.

Since the opening of the element pool, he has been practicing, studying, and handling affairs in the wizard tower.

Compared with the Dragon Skeleton Tower, the concentration of energy particles here is more comfortable.

The space planning of the wizard tower is still being improved, and the current progress value is only about one-third.

It is worth mentioning that during this period, Sunan tried to build another element pool and then synthesized it with the original element pool.

As a result, the effects of the synthesized element pool increased by about 1.2 times in all aspects, which surprised him.

"According to this, four to five small element pools should be able to synthesize an element pool with similar effects to the medium-sized one."

While thinking, Sunan has come to the experimental area.

There are more than 200 laboratories in the huge experimental area, and each one must be arranged with a magic array to prevent the energy explosion caused by the experiment from destroying the laboratory and affecting other areas.

This work alone cannot be completed without seven or eight months.

And this is just one of the space planning.

"There is a long way to go."

When Sunan finished his work, it was already evening.

Looking at the sky outside, he suddenly had the idea of ​​eating.

Since he was promoted to a wizard, Sunan basically stopped eating.

Even if he didn't eat anything for dozens or hundreds of years, he wouldn't feel hungry.

Just by absorbing the free energy particles in the air, he could maintain his life.

Although he didn't need it, Sunan would occasionally taste delicious food.

It was one of the few pleasures he had now.

Of course, the food that caught his eye were the food made of rare materials and with special effects on the daily recommended menus of Starlight Academy and Dragon Skeleton Tower Canteen.

For this reason, Carolina specially prepared a private room for him in the Dragon Skeleton Tower Canteen.

As usual, not long after Sunan sat down in the room, Carolina walked in with her tail, followed by a team of water elves carrying plates.

When the water elves put down the plates and opened the lids, a strong aroma that made people salivate immediately floated away, filling every corner of the room.

Sunan's eyes fell on one of the plates, and his expression moved slightly.

"Is this... king shrimp?"

"Yes, Master." Carolina smiled.

She knew that the origin of the dishes would not be difficult for the knowledgeable host.

The king shrimp is a ferocious marine creature that can reach a maximum length of more than five meters. It has strong and sharp claws, a wide range of diets, few natural enemies, thin and powerful lower limbs, and good fighting prowess.

In the ocean, even junior knights would not dare to face an emperor shrimp head-on.

As far as Sunan knew, the emperor shrimp was a deep-sea creature, and it seemed that this creature could only be found in the Rainbow Sea.

He glanced at the other dishes.

As expected, colorful fan shrimp, rainbow clams, coral fish, and dragon whale meat are all specialties of the Rainbow Sea.

The Rainbow Sea is extremely rich in product resources. It has the largest coral reef in the world and is rich in all kinds of delicious seafood and fish.

Carolina arranged a seafood dinner from the Rainbow Sea for him today.

Sunan smiled, waved his hand for the water elves to retreat, and then motioned for Carolina to sit down.

"Let's talk while we eat."

Carolina was slightly startled, then overjoyed, suppressing the surprise in her heart and carefully moved to her seat, wrapped her tail around the chair, and sat on the left side of Sunan's lower head.

Sunan tasted a few bites of the king shrimp meat, nodded with satisfaction, and then got to the point.

"How's the exploration of the Rainbow Sea going?"

Carolina respectfully replied: "Currently, five city-states have been built in Rainbow Bay, and land reclamation is also underway to build three islands as a transfer station for deep-sea exploration and bay city-states. However, due to the deep-sea Naga and Siren Due to the interference of sea monsters and sea monsters, the progress is a bit slow.”

At this point, Carolina glanced at Sunan cautiously and saw that he was tasting the food slowly without any dissatisfaction on his face. She felt slightly relieved and continued:

"I have sent additional troops to Rainbow Bay and issued a mission to Starlight Academy to order magic ships that can sail on the sea and special puppets that can move underwater. In addition, Lord Sherman and Lord Corey are also preparing to lead the team there. Rainbow Sea, with the help of the two of them, I believe there will be a breakthrough in the exploration operation soon.”

The deep sea is the territory of marine tribes and sea monsters. No matter how strong and majestic the ship is, it is no match for these creatures at sea.

Therefore, humans can only roam on land, and no country has ever tried to get involved in the Rainbow Sea.

As strong as the Star Alliance, they have also encountered a lot of difficulties and resistance in the process of exploring the Rainbow Sea. So far, they can only wander around the periphery of the Rainbow Sea.

However, Carolina believes that as long as the Star Alliance invests more resources, it will definitely be able to solve the current predicament of the Rainbow Sea.

When she prepared this banquet today, she took this opportunity to make a request to the master.

I believe the owner can definitely see this too.

Sure enough, after listening to her words, Su Nan glanced at her with a half-smile and said:

"I will ask the academy to cooperate with you, and the resources of the Star Alliance will be mobilized as you wish. The only requirement is to open up the situation in the Rainbow Sea as soon as possible."

There are only about four years left before the opening of Starfall City. Before that, a certain amount of power must be deployed in the Rainbow Sea.

Maybe it will come in handy when we look for Falling Star City.
