Chapter 295 The Law of Gravity, the Most Critical Step
Su Nan did not answer Li Ze's question immediately, but asked about the expansion of the military power of the Star Alliance in recent years.
In recent years, the Star Alliance's offensive against the Black Sota has slowed down a lot, but it has not relaxed in the expansion of military power.
After such a long time, the military power of the Star Alliance has grown amazingly.
Taking the report handed over by Li Ze, Su Nan quickly flipped through it.
First of all, the Golem Corps has expanded to 22 army groups, and is now working on establishing the 23rd army group.
The second is the Magic Pattern Knights.
In recent years, the Star Alliance has been purchasing magic pattern constructs in large quantities from the City of All Things.
More than 80% of the magic pattern constructs in the entire City of All Things have gone into the pockets of the Star Alliance, so that the price of magic pattern constructs in the City of All Things has increased by more than 30%.
The changes brought about by this are also very significant.
With sufficient magic pattern constructs, a large number of candidate members have been able to become formal members, and the number of formal members of the Magic Pattern Knights has increased significantly.
Due to the sharp decline in the number of candidate members, the Star Alliance simply eliminated the candidate members from the corps and left only formal members.
Now the Star Alliance has twelve legions, that is, sixty corps, and six hundred thousand formal members.
In addition, there are more than five hundred thousand alternate members left, and it is expected that they will be equipped with magic pattern constructs and become formal members in the future.
In total, including formal members and alternate members, the total number of Magic Pattern Knights has reached more than 1.1 million.
And this is already the current upper limit of the Star Alliance.
The life span of Magic Pattern Knights is limited. While new Magic Pattern Knights enter the army, there are also old people who leave the army due to injuries or old age.
As time goes by, the two will gradually reach a balance.
In the end, the total number of Magic Pattern Knights will be fixed at a numerical boundary and fluctuate around.
Unless there is a war, there will be no obvious increase or decrease.
And this numerical boundary depends on how many planes the Star Alliance controls where the mainstream race is human civilization.
At present, the Star Alliance has only two human planes, the Ulan Plane and the Starlight Continent, and having this number of Magic Pattern Knights is already the limit.
As for the Witch Hunting Corps, the number of puppets has exceeded 5,000.
Counting the puppet legions built into all wizard towers of the Star Alliance, the current number of wizard-level puppets of the Star Alliance has reached nearly 8,000.
Since Sunan was busy with cultivation and had no time to transform the Dusk Valley, the upper limit of the number of wolves has not changed.
After more than 300 years, the Dusk Wolves finally reached the upper limit of 602.
In terms of war creations, because the offensive was slowed down, the Star Alliance has captured very few wizard towers in recent years, and basically built wizard towers by itself.
Now the number of wizard towers has increased to 71, and most of them have been strengthened.
In addition to wizard towers, the growth of the number of star fortresses and flying fleets is much more impressive.
The number of the former has exceeded 500.
The number of the latter has also skyrocketed to 65.
The main reason is that the intensity of the war in recent years is not great, and the war creations have relatively small losses, so the increase is obvious.
However, what makes Sunan most happy is the increase in the number of wizards.
More than 300 years of operation and development are enough to fully develop the population advantage of the Ulan plane.
Nowadays, the total number of wizards in the Star Alliance has reached 1,767.
In general, compared with the time when the Manro plane and Xige plane were just conquered, the military strength of the Star Alliance can be said to have more than doubled.
Excluding the True Spirit Wizards, the current Star Alliance is qualified to be among the ranks of second-rate wizard forces in terms of comprehensive strength.
As long as Sunan is promoted to a True Spirit Wizard, he can immediately become a member of the second-rate wizard force.
"Not bad."
After reading the document, Sunan showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"Reply to the people of the Wisdom Code and say that we agree to their request."
After growing for so long, it's time to show fangs.
Anyway, Sunan originally planned to let the Star Alliance launch a large-scale attack in the near future to capture the four planes of the Black Sort Tower, and just took the opportunity to ask for some resources from the Wisdom Code.
Li Ze asked: "What resources do you want from the Wisdom Code? Magic pattern construction or materials?"
"No." Sunan's eyes flashed, "I want a law fruit."
Lize was slightly startled, and then showed a look of surprise.
Although the name of the Law Fruit contains the word "fruit", it is not a real fruit, but a general term for the crystallization of the power of the law, which mainly comes from the realm of truth.
Under normal circumstances, the power of the law is a mysterious and illusory existence that can only be felt by feeling and cannot be actually touched.
However, in the realm of truth, which is known as the holy land of the law, the rich power of the law will be materialized into a physical entity by chance, so that people can actually touch it.
And all the materialized power of the law are collectively called the fruit of the law.
Most of the fruits of the law have no specific attributes. Any true spirit wizard and third-level crystal wizard can absorb and transform them to improve their own perception and control of the law.
It can be said that a law fruit can increase the probability of a third-level crystal wizard being promoted to a true spirit wizard by 10% to 20%.
Although it is only 10% to 20%, the average probability of a third-level crystal wizard being promoted to a true spirit wizard is less than 10%. A law fruit increases the probability several times, which shows how precious it is.
Precisely because it is extremely precious, the Wisdom Code may not agree to this condition, and we have to negotiate to find out.
After handing the matter over to Liz, Sunan returned to the top floor of the wizard tower.
It has just been a short time since he broke through, and his realm needs to be stabilized.
Before he gets the information about the gravity plane, he can use this time to stabilize it.
"Fruit of Law?"
After learning about the conditions of the Star Alliance from his subordinates, Roning was stunned and looked astonished.
Sunan broke through to the third level of crystallization?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Roning subconsciously wanted to reject it.
After all, as far as he knew, it seemed that Sunan had broken through to the third level of liquefaction less than four hundred years ago. It was too incredible that he broke through again in such a short time!
Perhaps Sunan did not break through, and he wanted the fruit of law just to prepare for the understanding of the law after the breakthrough in the future.
However, thinking of Sunan's many surprising performances so far, Roning was a little uncertain.
A monster like Sunan is not suitable to be measured by common sense.
Thinking of this, Roning felt complicated.
I didn't expect that I, who has always been recognized as a genius, would one day regard another young wizard as a monster.
Roning sighed.
First it was Mai Yisha, and now there is another Su Nan. There are really many evildoers in this world.
Shaking his head to get rid of unnecessary distractions, Roning took out a crystal, put it on his forehead for a few seconds, and then crushed the crystal, turning it into a stream of light and disappearing into the void.
About half an hour later, the stream of light returned and appeared out of thin air, landing in front of Roning and turning into a huge text.
‘Yes’!
Seeing this, Roning exhaled, turned his head and said to his subordinates: “Agree to the conditions of the Star Alliance, but they must capture at least one plane within a hundred years.”
“Yes, sir!”
When the messenger of the Wisdom Code arrived in Wulan City, Su Nan was no longer in the Wulan plane.
As he expected, the Star Alliance easily purchased intelligence on several gravity planes from the three major chambers of commerce in Wanwu City.
As soon as the intelligence was obtained, Su Nan set off to one of the planes.
“Is this the Shenling plane?”
High in the sky, Su Nan floated in the air and looked around.
Wherever he looked, it was all desolate and bleak.
In the open field, there was nothing but sand and jagged rocks. Not even a plant could be seen, let alone any trace of living things. It was dead and lifeless.
"It seems that the resources in this plane are very poor. That's right. If it weren't for this, those people in Wanwu City wouldn't sell the information so easily."
Sunan didn't care. He didn't come here for the resources.
On the contrary, Sunan was very satisfied with another feature of the Shenling plane.
The moment he entered the plane, he felt extremely heavy pressure.
The terrifying gravity enveloped his whole body almost at the same time.
This is not ordinary oppression. The pressure brought by gravity is all-round. Every inch of flesh and blood, every bone and even every cell of the creature will be under 360-degree pressure without dead ends.
If the strength is slightly insufficient, it will be crushed into meat paste by the terrifying gravity in an instant!
"The gravity is about a hundred times that of the Starlight Continent."
"If creatures below the legendary knight come in here, I'm afraid they will die in an instant."
Sunan was amazed.
According to the information provided by the City of All Things, there are very few creatures in the Shenling plane, but the few creatures that exist are all powerful wizards.
Think about it, those who can adapt and survive in such a super-high gravity environment must be strong.
The intelligence gave the locations of these creatures. Sunan had no intention of contacting them. He avoided these locations and began to look for places suitable for understanding the rules.
The gravity in different places in the same plane is also different.
It took a lot of time for Sunan to find a place with relatively higher gravity, took out the prepared special golem from the magic cube, and built a simple temporary camp.
After ordering the golem to patrol and be on guard, Sunan then entered the house, sat cross-legged and began to understand the rules.
Understanding the rules is a very mysterious process, which is difficult to describe in words.
To put it simply, the wizard integrates the powerful spiritual power into the void, or into the plane, deeply contacts the origin of the plane, finds the law in the origin, and finds the specific law to be comprehended from the many laws. After that, it is boring to comprehend.
For planes with extremely high gravity like the Shenling plane, the gravity law in the origin will be more obvious than other planes, and it is relatively easier to comprehend.
During the process of comprehending, Sunan took out the crystal of law and held it in his palm.
With the help of the crystal of law, it is easier to find the law in the origin of the plane.
In the Shenling plane with very few creatures, no one will disturb Sunan.
As time passed, Sunan gradually entered a state of concentration without distraction, completely abandoned the perception of other things, and immersed himself in the origin of the plane.
Gradually, a colorful and strange world slowly unfolded before his eyes.
Each color in the world represents a law, and the colors are not clearly divided, but intertwined and mixed with each other, you have me and I have you.
Sometimes several colors are mixed together to form a new color, but at the same time, the original colors can still be distinguished from the new color, giving people an extremely mysterious feeling.
The dazzling array of colors almost dazzled Su Nan's eyes.
He quickly calmed down and looked for the color representing the law of gravity with his eyes wide open.
After an unknown amount of time, he finally got something and found a deep blue-black color among the countless colors.
When he saw the blue-black color, Su Nan had a sudden enlightenment.
This was the law of gravity he was looking for!
In great joy, Su Nan quickly extended his mental tentacles.
When he touched the blue-black color, his entire sea of consciousness suddenly banged, and his soul seemed to be hit by someone. After a short dizziness and confusion, he woke up in an instant.
In his vision, the many colors that were originally mixed together faded away like a tide, and were replaced by large patches of blue-black color that suddenly emerged and quickly occupied most of his vision.
In a blink of an eye, Su Nan was surrounded by large patches of blue-black.
Looking at this scene, Su Nan let out a long breath, and a happy smile from the heart appeared on his face.
It's done!
With this joy, Su Nan suddenly broke away from his concentration, and everything in front of him suddenly disappeared.
When he opened his eyes again, he was still in the original hut, with nothing around him, as if everything he had seen before was just a dream.
However, Sunan knew that everything was true.
On the panel suspended in the void in front of him, a new line of text had appeared.
[Progress of understanding the law of gravity: 0.01%]
Sunan was filled with joy.
The most critical step was taken, and the next step was hard work.
As long as he continued to understand, he would be able to control the law of gravity one day.
After coming back to his senses from his joy, Sunan came outside.
Everything in the camp was the same as before his retreat, with no changes.
Before the retreat, Sunan specially ordered a golem to record the time. Now he found that more than fifty-three years had passed.
In his perception, it seemed that only a short time had passed.
"I didn't expect that understanding the law would take so much time."
Sunan sighed secretly.
He had the crystal of the law in his hand, and it was easier for him to understand the law than other wizards.
Even so, it still took more than fifty years to complete the most critical first step.
For other wizards, it would probably take several times as long as this.
Of course, it is more likely that he will not be able to take this critical first step.
Although he had experienced it himself, when asked to describe the process and experience of comprehending the law, Su Nan still felt at a loss.
The previous experience was like a dream. Although he remembered it in his head, he could not describe it in words.
If he had to describe it, it would be idealism.
"No wonder no True Spirit Wizard has summarized the experience of comprehending the law for so many years."
"It's not that they don't want to, but they can't do it."
"This kind of thing can only be experienced by yourself, and others can't help much."
Su Nan shook his head, turned around and went back to the house to practice.
At present, he has only initially comprehended the law, and he must continue to comprehend it in depth until he truly masters the power of the law, and then he can be promoted to a True Spirit Wizard. (End of this chapter)
