Chapter 252 Upgrade plan, apprenticeship

The Dark Wizard Tower is a standard small wizard tower.

Whether it is the elemental pool, the protective energy field of the maze lock or the floating ring, they are all of the lowest small level and have not undergone any strengthening and transformation.

The long-range strike device also has only one hundred spell turrets and one dissociation cannon.

If you insist on saying that there is something worth studying, it is probably only the tower spirit and the black-lined flying wing bone claw.

The Dark Throne is an expert in studying souls and is best at using souls to make various puppets and magic props.

In the plane community it controls, a large amount of flesh and soul of intelligent life is used in the experiments and manufacturing of wizards (apprentices) every year, which is extremely bloody and cruel.

This also makes many wizards in the Dark Throne very good at making souls.

Therefore, compared with ordinary wizards who use soul crystals to make tower spirits, the wizards of the Dark Throne prefer to consume more souls of better quality, abandon the step of soul crystallization, and directly make tower spirits.

The tower spirits made by this method have stronger computing power and data analysis capabilities than ordinary tower spirits.

Otherwise, the Dark Wizard Tower would not have only one tower spirit.

Although the Dark Wizard Tower was built for combat, and the demand for experiments and living is not high, so the number of tower spirits is not high, but it is enough to show the power of the tower spirits created by the Dark Throne.

After studying the container fragments of the tower spirit, Sunan also gained some results. He plans to apply them when upgrading the tower spirit in the future to strengthen the tower spirit's computing power and data analysis capabilities.

As for the black-patterned flying wing bone claw, Sunan also kept two for research.

Although he did not intend to copy it, it is a wizard-level puppet after all, and he can learn a lot from it.

After the study, Sunan did not hesitate to dismantle the entire Dark Wizard Tower and sort out the materials.

As for the Falling Star City, he had already decomposed it into various materials.

Now it is just right to use them together in the upgrade and transformation of the Starlight Wizard Tower.

As for how to upgrade, Sunan already has a plan in mind.

First of all, in terms of energy supply, the central crystal energy transmission system and the element pool must be upgraded and strengthened.

Needless to say, the central crystal energy transmission system is the core hardware of the wizard tower.

If the wizard tower wants to be upgraded to the medium standard, the central crystal energy transmission system is the first to be strengthened and transformed.

As for the element pool, it has actually exceeded the standard of the medium wizard tower by a large margin. It is just to improve the efficiency of filling the spiritual power that Sunan plans to continue to strengthen it.

Originally, the floating ring also needed to be transformed, but the Star Alliance is now short of mithril, and the floating ring has been synthesized and strengthened once before, so Sunan is not going to include it in the upgrade this time.

The second is space planning.

This is relatively simple, which is to expand the internal space of each area.

The last one is the combat device, including the protective energy field of the maze, the long-range strike device and the built-in legion.

Among them, the protective energy field of the maze, like the element pool, has been strengthened to the large level, far exceeding the standard of the medium wizard tower.

However, Sunan still plans to continue to synthesize and strengthen it. After all, no one will think that the defense is low.

In terms of long-range strike devices, that is, the spell turret type II and the dissociation cannon type II, the firepower is sufficient for the time being.

Although there is no plasma cannon that is standard in medium-sized wizard towers, the power of dissociation cannon type II is only stronger than that of plasma cannons.

Not to mention that there are 300 spell turrets type II.

In terms of long-range firepower alone, the Starlight Wizard Tower is more than the medium-sized wizard tower.

As long as the energy keeps up, the long-range firepower does not need to be increased for the time being.

Of course, the improvement of spell turret type II and dissociation cannon type II still needs to be continued, mainly aimed at reducing energy consumption.

The last built-in legion, 5,000 adamantium golems are enough for the time being, and Sunan is not going to increase it.

However, the number of wizard-level puppets is only 25, which is a bit small. Sunan plans to increase it to 100.

In the end, if the upgrade of the element pool and the protective energy field of the maze is not included, the cost of upgrading the Starlight Wizard Tower to the medium level is almost more than 1 billion gold coins.

Of course, this is just a general number. After all, at this level, many materials can no longer be bought purely with gold coins.

Especially when it comes to large-scale procurement.

Therefore, magic stones are used more often in the wizard world for transactions.

"If magic stones are used, it would be much simpler. I can use gold coins to purchase secondary magic stones, and then synthesize magic stones to buy other things, and the gold coins spent are lower."

This is also the reason why Sunan is eager to lift the plane blockade and trade with other wizard forces.

The cost of many resources in his hands is far lower than the 'market price', and it is simply too cost-effective to use them to trade with other wizard forces.

For example, magic stones, magic crystals, magic stone essence mothers, elemental crystal cores, soul crystals, etc.

Once they can be traded freely, the huge profits brought by these resources will surely bring a leap forward in the development of the Star Alliance!

However, at this stage, due to resource constraints, the upgrade and transformation of the wizard tower can only be carried out slowly.

Especially the upgrade of the element pool and the protective energy field of the maze lock.

After formulating a detailed wizard tower upgrade plan, Sunan sent the secret doll to transfer the plan to Liz, asking her to coordinate the supply of resources according to the plan, and then returned to the element pool to continue practicing.

"The next is another busy time."

Time is like fine sand in the palm of your hand, and it slips through your fingers if you don't pay attention.

More than ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

Starlight Calendar 1999, the month of Flowing Fire (July).

The blazing sun hangs high in the sky, and the scorching sun burns the earth.

After walking on the street for a short while, the sweat has soaked the clothes.

Under the high temperature, the central avenue of Flashing City, which is usually bustling with people, is extremely deserted today, with few pedestrians.

Dede!

A strange vehicle is coming from a distance.

The appearance of the vehicle looks very similar to the luxurious carriages commonly used by nobles, but it is made of metal and there is no horse pulling it. The four wheels are driven by some invisible force and roll forward quickly.

The sound of the wheels rolling attracted the attention of many pedestrians.

The pedestrians looked at the metal vehicle with envy.

"It's the latest model of magic car!"

"I heard that this kind of magic car uses magic stone as energy, so it can pull the all-metal body."

"I'm so envious, I wish I had one!"

"Stop daydreaming, do you know how rare and precious this kind of magic car is? Ordinary nobles can't afford it. Did you see the emblem on the outer wall of the carriage? That's the emblem of the royal family!"

"Oh my god, it's true. Which princess or prince is sitting inside?"

The magic car drove forward, leaving the crowd of discussions far behind.

In the spacious carriage, Hailin held a thick book in his hand and read it attentively, as if he didn't hear the outside voice.

On the contrary, the boys and girls sitting on both sides of the carriage heard the discussion outside, but did not speak. They still sat quietly, for fear of disturbing Hailin.

The magic car crossed the central avenue and arrived directly at the gate of the palace.

The boy among the two opened the window, stuck his head out and said something, and the soldiers at the door immediately let him go, saving even the inspection.

The magic car continued to drive until it entered a luxurious palace and stopped.

There was already a group of people waiting in the palace, led by the second prince of the current empire, Jerry Yanest.

Standing behind him were his wife and children.

Seeing Hailin and the other two get off the car, Jerry immediately greeted them and said with a smile:

"Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come, Lord Hailin."

The others also saluted.

Several young boys and girls couldn't help but secretly look at Hailin, full of curiosity.

In terms of seniority, the young man in front of them, who looked only in his twenties at most, should be considered their father's great-uncle.

It's just that wizards don't like to talk about blood and seniority, so their father called him "sir".

After a few greetings, the group walked towards the hall.

During the period, Hailin did not introduce the two boys and girls behind him, and Jerry did not ask. He guessed that the two should be Hailin's disciples.

In the hundreds of years since the death of the founding emperor, with the support of the Star Alliance, a large number of wizard apprentices have sprung up in the royal family.

Today, there are more than 300 wizard apprentices registered in the royal family who are still alive.

Among them, there is a wizard.

It is Hailin Yanest in front of us!

For this reason, Hailin Yanest has an extremely high status in the empire, and even His Majesty the Emperor has to greet him when he sees him.

Jerry also spent a lot of money to invite Hailin here.

Hailin and the other two entered the hall with Jerry, and the others left, only a teenager of sixteen or seventeen followed into the hall.

After sitting down, without waiting for Jerry to think about how to open the topic, Hailin went straight to the point and said:

"Tell me, why did you go to so much trouble to invite me here?"

Jerry knew that most wizards didn't like to beat around the bush, so he gritted his teeth and said the purpose of this time.

"I would like to ask you to accept my youngest son Guy as your disciple!"

Hai Lin raised his eyebrows and looked at the nervous teenager standing behind Jerry.

He exuded a faint energy particle fluctuation.

Judging from the intensity, he should be a second-level wizard apprentice.

"Is he a student of the Starlight Academy?"

"Yes."

"For the sake of our same race, as long as he passes the Morning Star test, I will accept him as my disciple."

Jerry's expression froze.

Any second-level wizard apprentice under the age of 30 can participate in the Morning Star test. Although Guy meets the requirements, he is too young and his accumulation is not deep enough. If he signs up at this time, the chance of passing is very small.

Otherwise, he would not have to ask Hai Lin for help.

Studying in the wizard academy, one step at a time, one step at a time, and being accepted by Hai Lin in advance, with a wizard teacher to guide him, plus the support of resources at home, Guy can grow faster than other students, and may become a wizard like Hai Lin in the future!

Hailing a full view of Jerry's changes in expression, Hai Lin knew what he was thinking without thinking.

This was not the first time he had encountered such a thing.

Since he was promoted to a wizard, the Arnest family had asked him to accept countless people as disciples.

However

He looked at Guy, a second-level wizard apprentice of sixteen or seventeen years old, with good qualifications, not much worse than he was in the past.

"Sir, I beg you to accept Guy as your disciple."

Jerry made the request again with a sincere look, but this time he also handed over a space ring.

"Here is one thousand lower-level magic stones, which is Guy's apprenticeship fee. I will offer the same amount every year in the future. Please consider it."

The boy and girl standing behind Hailin were surprised when they heard this, and their eyes looking at the space ring suddenly became a little hot.

The magic technology has now spread throughout the entire continent, but due to the low production of magic stones, it has only been promoted and popularized in Jinyan Province.

The nobles and royal families living in Jinyan Province are naturally close to the water and can collect magic stones to trade with wizards (apprentices).

And one thousand magic stones is already a considerable amount!

Put it in the Starlight Academy, it is enough for a third-level wizard apprentice to spend for several years.

Should we say that he is worthy of being the second prince, and he is really generous.

Hailin's expression was also moved. He glanced at Guy, pondered for a moment, and finally agreed.

In addition to magic stones, he also took a fancy to Guy's qualifications.

"Okay, from today on, he is my disciple."

Seeing Hailin agreed, Jerry was immediately ecstatic and hurriedly shouted to his youngest son: "Come and greet the teacher!"

Guy's face flushed with excitement, and he hurriedly walked to Hailin to salute.

"Teacher!"

Hai Lin nodded calmly: "Come back to the academy with me later."

After that, he looked at Jerry again, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

The goal has been achieved, Jerry naturally did not dare to delay Hai Lin's time, and sent him out with a smile on his face, watching the four people get on the car.

The magic car immediately drove out of the palace and headed out of the city.

In the car, Guy sat a little stiffly.

Hai Lin glanced at him, pointed at the two boys and girls and said: "This is Raymond and Alisa, your senior brothers and sisters, both third-level wizard apprentices. If I am not here in the future, ask them if you don't understand anything."

"Hello, senior brothers and sisters!" Guy greeted him hurriedly.

Raymond and Alisa also smiled back at Guy with a kind attitude.

Even if they don't look at the fact that the other party and the teacher belong to the same Anest family, the other party's qualifications alone are enough to make them look at them differently.

At this moment, Hai Lin's expression suddenly moved, and a book appeared out of thin air with a flip of his wrist.

He quickly turned the pages of the book, and a thin beam of light overflowed from the pages, interweaving to outline a somewhat illusory figure.

"What's the matter?" Hailin asked.

The figure said in a deep voice: "About 120 kilometers north of Flash City, there are unrecorded energy particle fluctuations, the number is thirteen, the witch hunting army has rushed over, you also go to support."

After a pause, he added, "This is the order of Lord Xingyun!"

Hailin's expression became serious, and he nodded and said, "I know."

The light and shadow dissipated, Hailin closed the book, and said to the three stunned boys and girls:

"You go back to the academy first."

As the voice fell, Hailin had disappeared, leaving Guy and the other two in the carriage looking at each other. (End of this chapter)
