Chapter 238
"teacher."
In the study, Sherman and Corey saluted Sunan respectfully.
Even though they have been promoted to wizards, the two of them still maintain the respect and admiration for Sunan they had when they were apprentices.
"Yes, you two lived up to my expectations."
An appreciative smile appeared on Sunan's face.
Currently, the Star Alliance has seven wizards, and the other five are promoted from third-level wizard apprentices recruited from outside.
Only Sherman and Corey were truly from Starlight Academy.
This also proves the feasibility of the Starlight Academy training system.
"As a teacher, I can't be stingy. Take these two magic weapons as rewards for you."
Sunan waved his hand, and a ring and a pitch-black spearhead appeared out of thin air and landed in Sherman's palm.
On the other side, Korey got the same thing.
"This is the [Forbidden Zone] and [Black Ting]. They are both first-level witchcraft. The specific usage methods have been engraved in the witchcraft. You can know it by placing a spiritual imprint."
Considering that the two of them had just been promoted not long ago, Su Nan gave them first-level magic weapons that had only been synthesized and strengthened four times.
The power is almost the same as the witchcraft he synthesized when he was first promoted.
Even so, it is much better than the lowest-level wizard weapons on the Star Alliance exchange list that have not been synthesized and enhanced.
"Thank you teacher!"
Sherman and Corey looked surprised.
They know how precious magic weapons are.
Scepter, Qiangwei and others, who were promoted to wizards decades earlier than them, now only have one witchcraft in hand, which they earned through hard work and accumulated contribution points.
In comparison, they were undoubtedly very lucky to receive two witchcraft weapons as soon as they were promoted.
"About wizards, you can ask Scepter and Rose. It's time for you to know some things."
Facing the confused Sherman and Corey, Sunan didn't explain much. He encouraged them with a few words and asked them to leave.
"As the plane barriers are gradually repaired and the concentration of energy particles increases, more and more people will be promoted to wizards."
"Unfortunately, it will take time for Starlight Continent's resources to recover. On my own, even with the Rubik's Cube, I cannot supply the resources needed for many wizards to practice. Without enough resources, it is estimated that few of these wizards can break through to the first level of liquefaction. Not to mention first-level crystallization.”
For example, Sunan could still provide Crystal Soul Potion, but there was nothing he could do about the others.
For example, if he is willing to open up the elemental crystal cores for wizards to redeem, it may be hard to predict the first-level crystallization, but before the plane blockade is lifted, it will definitely be no problem for a group of first-level liquefied wizards to emerge.
But now he doesn't even have enough elemental cores, let alone sharing them with other wizards.
If other wizards want elemental cores, they can only enter the elemental plane to hunt elemental giants.
However, the strength of the first-level gasification wizard is obviously not enough to fight the elemental djinn on the elemental plane, so this becomes an endless loop.
The situation of insufficient resources can only be improved after the plane blockade is lifted and the Star Alliance trades with other planes.
"With the addition of Sherman and Corey, the collection speed of elemental crystal dust can be accelerated."
"If this momentum can continue, it may only take two to three hundred years to break through to second-level liquefaction."
Sunan stretched his body, teleported back to the practice room, and continued his daily routine of absorbing divine energy.
Time flies by like running water.
Or it may be more appropriate to describe it as practicing without the sun and the moon.
Sunan originally didn't care much about the affairs of the Starry Empire. After Keyi's death, he stopped paying attention to the empire's affairs at all and left them all to Lize.
As long as the imperial royal family is still the Arnest family and there is no chaos, he doesn't care.
Of course, the things promised to Key still had to be done.
Under Sunan's order, the Covenant provides free resources to the imperial royal family every year, specifically for training wizard apprentices.
As for how the imperial royal family planned to distribute it, he did not ask any more.
In the decades after Key's death, many wizard apprentices were born to the imperial royal family.
With more resource support than others, the royal wizard apprentices grew very quickly.
The Arnest family has gradually begun to develop into a wizard family.
Starlight calendar year 1447.
After more than ten years of experiments, Sunan finally synthesized a substitute material for Arcane.
This new material, which he named Soul Gold, has the same ductility and magic-guiding properties as Arcane. The only drawback is that it is slightly more expensive than Arcane.
After that, Sunan spent more than seven years developing substitutes for the other materials, and finally gathered all the materials to transform the alchemical body.
Sunan began to transform the alchemical body that day.
The transfer process was extremely slow and took nearly forty years to complete.
Starlight calendar year 1509, Xialong month (June).
Sunan finally completed the transformation of his alchemical body.
In the laboratory, Sunan concentrated on sensing the changes in his body.
"Physique has not been significantly strengthened, and mental strength has not increased."
"However, the affinity for energy particles has improved a lot, which is probably equivalent to an increase of about 5% in mental concentration."
"It's pretty much what the data says. It seems like the elemental resistance has also been improved."
Sunan then conducted a test of elemental resistance.
The result did not disappoint him, the elemental resistance was indeed improved.
It's just that the range is not large, only between 5% and 10%.
But this already made Sunan very satisfied.
After all, the original intention of transforming into an alchemical body is to engrave alchemical marks. The improvement of energy particle affinity and elemental resistance is incidental, so we can't ask for too much.
"The next step is to engrave alchemical marks."
The engraving of alchemical marks is particular. It is not that as long as you transform into an alchemical body, you can engrave alchemical marks without limit.
Every wizard's alchemical body has a load limit.
The engraved alchemical marks cannot be superimposed to exceed the load limit of the alchemical body, otherwise it will lead to failure.
Just like a scroll cannot draw spells without limit, there is a limit after all.
And depending on the mental power and physique, the load limit of each wizard is also different.
The number of alchemical marks that can be engraved in the end is not only related to the wizard's load limit, but also depends on the type of alchemical marks selected.
Different alchemical marks have different loads after engraving.
For example, [Talent Specialization], its load degree is also second to none among many alchemical marks.
For the same alchemical body, you can engrave three alchemical marks by choosing other alchemical marks, but if you choose [Talent Specialization], you can only engrave one more alchemical mark at most.
Therefore, when choosing alchemical marks, you need to make a careful choice based on your own carrying limit.
Sunan has already decided that [Spirit Storage] and [Talent Specialization] are definitely required.
After engraving these two alchemical marks, if there is still enough carrying space, then consider other alchemical marks.
This thing is more valuable than quantity. The most important thing is to suit your own combat system and maximize combat effectiveness.
The materials for engraving alchemical marks and the materials for transforming alchemical bodies are highly overlapped, so there is no need to develop more materials, which saves Sunan a lot of effort.
He immediately prepared for engraving, and the first thing he chose was [Spirit Storage].
In the laboratory, a mysterious and complex magic circle was drawn on the neat floor.
Sunan sat cross-legged on the edge of the magic circle, stretched out his hand to press one corner, and slowly injected mental power.
Buzz!
The magic circle gradually emitted a hazy glimmer, and strange fluctuations spread out.
Sunan instantly sent out a magician's hand, picked up the materials next to him one by one, and threw them into the magic circle.
As soon as they came into contact with the light of the magic circle, the materials melted quickly like hot butter.
When all the materials were thrown in, there was already a layer of silver-white liquid in the magic circle, which looked like mercury, but it glowed slightly.
Immediately afterwards, under Sunan's control, these liquids floated up out of thin air, quickly formed silver needles, and then quickly engraved runes on his skin.
The runes seemed small, but they were extremely mysterious and complicated.
There were at least thousands of interlaced lines in a rune that was only the size of a fingernail.
You must not make a mistake in this, otherwise if you are lucky, it will just lose its effect and become an ordinary line, and if you are unlucky, it will explode with a "bang".
One of the functions of the alchemical body is to ensure that the body will not be too seriously injured when the engraving fails.
With the blessing of the 5th level [Magic Item Manufacturing] skill, Sunan completed the engraving smoothly.
The moment the last stroke fell, his entire upper body almost turned silver-white, and countless silver-white lines were like winding long snakes wrapped around his chest and back.
The mysterious runes emitted a faint light, strange and full of beauty, like the ultimate art.
In times of crisis, these lines can be activated instantly with just one thought, giving the engraver powerful abilities.
Sunan looked at the alchemical engravings on his body with satisfaction.
As his thoughts flashed, the silver-white lines quickly dimmed and disappeared, and reappeared with his thoughts, which was very convenient.
Unlike magic tattoos, which cannot be hidden and can be seen through by the enemy at a glance.
After calming down his joyful mood, Sunan began to test the effect of [Spiritual Storage] and injected his mental power into it.
However, until the alchemical engraving was full of mental power, his mental power was consumed by about 20%.
"So little?"
Sunan frowned slightly, but he quickly understood after a little thought.
The reference given in the data is based on a second-level gasification wizard who has constructed two lower-level talent crystals, and he has constructed two super talent crystals, so the amount of mental power he has naturally far exceeds this benchmark.
In practice, it is not surprising to have only 20% of mental power.
After figuring this out, Sunan was a little disappointed.
If it is only 20%, then the effect of [Spiritual Storage Capacity] on him will be greatly reduced.
Unless the effect of [Spiritual Storage Capacity] is improved!
"Synthesize Alchemical Marks?"
Sunan looked at the silver-white lines on his body, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
Alchemical marks have no entity, but use the flesh as a carrier. Unlike other physical objects, they can be synthesized by putting them into the magic cube.
You can't put him into the magic cube to synthesize, right?
That won't be enough.
However, this is not the first time that Sunan has experienced this situation.
Before this, he encountered a similar situation-the talent crystal model!
The talent crystal model is also an object without a physical body. At the beginning, it was also successfully strengthened by fusing with the divine energy crystal and synthesizing it after having an actual carrier.
This method can also be applied to alchemical marks.
Thinking and doing, Sunan took out the elemental crystal core, extracted the divine energy and condensed it into a crystal, and then began to peel off the alchemical marks on his body, and finally integrated them into the divine energy crystal.
At the moment of successful fusion, the divine energy crystal suddenly burst into dazzling silver light, and the whole body was dyed with bright silver.
A smile appeared on Sunan's face.
As long as the fusion can be successful, the synthesis will be no problem.
After verifying the feasibility, Sunan did not immediately synthesize [Spiritual Storage], but chose to synthesize [Talent Specialization].
Compared with the former, the latter has a more immediate effect on his combat effectiveness.
He must first determine the synthesis limit of [Talent Specialization].
Sunan then engraved [Talent Specialization] and conducted actual combat tests.
The test results are not bad.
After activating [Talent Specialization], Sunan's 'Liquid Metal' and 'Absolute Forbidden Zone' were strengthened by more than 20%.
Although it is less than the data given in the information, considering the level of his talent crystal, this effect is already very good.
After that, Sunan successively created more divine energy crystals that were fused with [Talent Specialization] and then synthesized them.
Each time it is synthesized, it must be reintegrated into the body to test the load, and then a practical test is conducted. Only when it is confirmed that there is no problem can it be peeled off again and the synthesis is continued.
What makes Sunan happy is that the load increase of the synthesized alchemical marks is not very obvious.
On the contrary, as the effect of [Talent Specialization] gradually increases, the greatly enhanced talent ability after activation has gradually exceeded his control limit.
Weapons are too sharp and will hurt yourself.
After synthesizing the fifth [Talent Specialization] and conducting a practical test, Sunan decisively terminated the synthesis.
If it continues to be strengthened, [Talent Specialization] will no longer be a means of gain, but will become a poison that harms itself.
Fortunately, the enhanced [Talent Specialization] has increased the enhancement of talent ability to nearly 60%, and the key is that the load is only about half of the limit, which Sunan is very satisfied with.
After solving [Talent Specialization], Sunan then continued to synthesize [Spirit Storage].
After synthesizing six [Spirit Storage] alchemical marks, its load reached his remaining half limit.
The effect did not disappoint him. The synthesized [Spiritual Storage] could almost hold all his spiritual power.
In this way, he was equivalent to having double the spiritual power.
The two alchemical marks almost made Sunan's alchemical body reach its carrying limit, and he could not engrave more alchemical marks.
But he was already very satisfied.
With these two alchemical marks, even if he faced a third-level gasification wizard, he had the confidence to fight him!
Engraved gems, magic tools, and alchemical marks, these are the trump cards he has now.
There are not many, but each one is more powerful than the other! (End of this chapter)
