Chapter 241 Traveling Wizard
The gray-robed man was puzzled.
It was the same in the tavern before. He had only cast a spell once, but the Star Alliance noticed and targeted him.
Could it be that the Star Alliance happened to have some means in Luoxia City that could sense the fluctuations of energy particles over a large area?
The gray-robed man's thoughts turned rapidly, thinking about how to get out of the current situation.
However, the two girls on the opposite side did not give him any chance. Seeing that he was silent and did not respond, they did not hesitate to attack.
Chi Chi!
Countless dazzling silver lights swept out in an instant, attacking him like a tide!
The piercing sound of sonic booms broke the silence of the forest in the middle of the night.
The gray-robed man flashed and disappeared in an instant. When he appeared again, he was already a hundred meters away.
However, those silver lights also turned around and chased after him.
The gray-robed man raised his hand and quickly drew an illusory rune in the void, then stretched out his hand and pushed it. The rune flew out in an instant, and exploded after hitting the incoming silver light. The violent shock wave and flames instantly tore the silver light into pieces!
But before he could catch his breath, two knight swords had stabbed at him from both sides at the same time!
The two girls actually caught up with him in an instant!
"Flash!"
The gray-robed man was shocked.
The two girls actually cast the same three-ring spell Flash as him. Could it be that they are also wizards?
This guess was soon verified in the following battle.
Seeing the two girls cast three-ring spells one after another, the gray-robed man was shocked.
The only thing that puzzled him was that the two girls' innate abilities, that is, those silver lights, seemed a little weak.
But in any case, the two girls did have wizard-level strength.
Seeing this, the gray-robed man did not dare to hold back and cast his innate abilities without hesitation.
In an instant, countless black threads escaped from his body and spread rapidly towards the surrounding void.
In an instant, the woods within a radius of four or five hundred meters were like thick black ink poured into clear water, stained with a layer of black color at an astonishing speed.
In just a blink of an eye, the surroundings became pitch black.
What I saw was darker than the night, and I couldn't see my fingers.
The two girls fell into endless darkness in an instant.
Their dark vision couldn't even penetrate this strange darkness, so they could only spread their mental power to try to find the location of the gray-robed man.
But the surrounding darkness seemed to block even mental power, and mental power could only spread to five or six meters around them, and could not spread outward.
The two girls made a quick decision, soared into the sky and flew upwards, trying to break out of the coverage of darkness.
But the next second, the darkness around them suddenly surged.
It seemed that many beasts hiding in the darkness were silently attacking from all directions!
In just a moment, the two girls suffered hundreds of attacks, and the invisible protective force field of the Extreme Protection Ring on their bodies was almost instantly broken.
Fortunately, the two wrapped their bodies with the magic pattern core in time to block the subsequent attacks.
While the two girls were unable to escape, the gray-robed man retreated quietly.
The wizard force called Star Alliance was obviously not a good thing. He did not intend to offend the other party completely, so he did not kill them, but just held the two girls to buy himself time to escape.
But just after performing the levitation spell and flying more than 200 meters, the gray-robed man suddenly stopped again, and his face under the mask showed a look of doubt.
In the night, one girl after another walked out of the woods and surrounded him in the middle.
What was shocking was that these girls looked exactly like the two girls just now without exception. Their facial features, height and body shape were just like they were measured with a ruler, and every detail was exactly the same.
Even the sense of danger he felt was exactly the same!
The gray-robed man was stunned in place, motionless.
At this point, even if he was slow, he understood it.
These girls, including the two who had just fought with him, were not human beings at all, but puppets.
Wizard-level puppets!
After realizing this, he immediately lost the desire to resist.
The wizard force that could refine so many wizard-level puppets must have energy that he, a traveling wizard, could not resist.
In addition, there are strange means that can sense the fluctuations of energy particles. As long as he is still in this plane, he may not be able to escape.
In this case, it is better to simply admit defeat.
Judging from the performance of the other party, it seems that they are not some evil wizard force. If he surrenders obediently, he may be able to save his life.
"I surrender."
The gray-robed man sighed and said loudly, feeling helpless and confused.
I don't know when such a wizard force appeared in the multiverse?
Why has he never heard of it before?
Starlight Wizard Tower, top control center.
Su Nan sat cross-legged beside the element pool, his eyes closed, holding an element crystal core in his hand, concentrating on absorbing divine energy.
After years of practice, his spiritual concentration has long been on the verge of breaking through.
As more than ten standard units of divine energy were gradually assimilated and fused, this step was finally taken.
In the depths of the sea of consciousness, the gaseous spiritual power that was slowly flowing around the talent crystal suddenly stagnated, and then condensed into small drops of water as if it was cold, falling like rain.
Not long after, the mist disappeared completely, replaced by water flowing around the talent crystal like a galaxy belt.
The water was crystal clear, flowing slowly around the talent crystals, and it seemed as if one could still hear the pleasant sound of splashing.
"It's done!"
Su Nan opened his eyes, and a look of joy flashed in his eyes.
It took more than two hundred years to finally break through to the second-level liquefaction!
"It's much more difficult to improve the spiritual concentration of the second level than the first level."
Su Nan breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down the surge in his heart, and concentrated on sensing the changes in his body.
The higher the level of the wizard, the more difficult it is to improve, but every breakthrough brings an amazing increase in strength.
For example, a second-level liquefied wizard, even if they are constructed with lower-level talent crystals, is enough to easily beat a second-level gasification wizard who has constructed two higher-level talent crystals.
High-level talent crystals can only make wizards the best in the same level, or even invincible in the same level, but they cannot allow wizards to challenge higher levels.
Of course, the super talent crystals synthesized by Su Nan are not included.
Now, even if he does not use the engraved gems, magic tools, alchemical engravings and other trump cards, he is enough to fight against the second-level crystal wizard, and his chances of winning are not small.
If he adds various trump cards, he will not be afraid of the third-level gasification wizard.
When he breaks through to the second-level crystal, Su Nan is even confident that he can defeat the third-level gasification wizard.
"But the difficulty of breaking through to the second-level crystal is not low."
Su Nan originally hoped that he could be promoted to the third-level wizard before the plane blockade was lifted, but later he found that he underestimated the difficulty of going from the second level to the third level.
It took more than two hundred years from the second-level gasification to the second-level liquefaction, so the time spent from the second-level liquefaction to the second-level crystallization will only be more, not less.
It is now the 1705th year of the Starlight Calendar, and there are less than three hundred years left before the invasion of the Dark Throne.
In such a short time, it is impossible to be promoted to the third-level wizard.
Even if he breaks through to the second-level crystal, Su Nan is not 100% sure.
Under normal circumstances, this is impossible.
However, the concentration of energy particles in the Starlight Continent has been continuously increasing. According to the detection of the Eye of the Star, the current concentration of energy particles is about 1.6 times that of when he was promoted to a wizard.
In addition, the number of wizards in the Star Alliance has been increasing. So far, there are already 18 first-level wizards.
And this number will gradually increase in the future.
This means that there will be more and more tools to collect elemental crystal dust for him, and the divine energy he can absorb will also increase.
With these two blessings, it is difficult to break through to the second-level crystallization within three hundred years, but it is not completely impossible.
"Yes, if it is so easy to be promoted, third-level wizards will not be so rare."
A third-level wizard is a high-level one even in large wizard forces such as the Deep Blue Alliance and the Wisdom Code.
If placed in a third-rate wizard force such as the Falling Stars, it is enough to serve as a core high-level or even a leader.
This level of existence is also very rare in the vast multiverse.
Shaking his head, Sunan shook off the extra thoughts, left the element pool, and teleported to the workshop.
With the breakthrough of realm, the imprinted gems, magic tools and alchemical marks can also be further strengthened.
First of all, the imprinted gems, after some experiments, the number of synthesis is limited to 60.
Due to the lack of suitable test subjects, Sunan can only conduct simple tests. In the end, it is roughly enough to severely damage the second-level gasification.
The cost has also soared to nearly 16,000 gold coins, but compared with the power, it still seems to be good value for money.
"It's a pity that using imprinted gems requires sufficient mental power, otherwise it will be equipped with each puppet and secret puppet, and the combat power can at least be multiplied several times."
Sunan thought with some regret.
Not to mention the imprinted gems with a synthesis quantity of 60, the imprinted gems with a synthesis quantity of 20 to 30 cannot be used by the puppet and secret puppet.
The result of forcibly using it is that you will also be backfired by the imprinted gems, and you may even be injured more seriously than the enemy.
Wait!
Sunan suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
If you don't care about the damage caused by the backlash, then can't you force the use of imprinted gems?
For example, equip both the Touch Master Puppet and the Secret Puppet with an engraved gem. When encountering a powerful enemy that cannot be dealt with and unable to escape, why not simply activate the engraved gem and directly explode at the enemy?
It seems that it is not impossible!
Sunan was immediately tempted and decided to include this in the next research project.
It is best to make some modifications to the engraved gem to ensure that when the puppet explodes, the damage can fall more on the enemy, rather than wasting it on destroying itself.
After solving the problem of the engraved gem, Sunan then started to strengthen the magic weapon.
There is nothing to say about this. Just create a new [Forbidden Zone] and [Black Thunder], and then further synthesize a more powerful second-level magic weapon.
Although he now has the talent ability of [Absolute Forbidden Zone], Sunan still hasn't given up [Forbidden Zone].
After all, the magic weapon does not consume mental power, and it can still play a significant role in battle.
The last one that needs to be synthesized and strengthened is the alchemical mark.
After being promoted to the second level of liquefaction, Sunan's mental strength and physical fitness were still unable to bear the third alchemical mark, so he simply strengthened [Talent Specialization] and [Spiritual Storage].
After doing all this, Sunan walked out of the workshop and prepared to go back to continue practicing, but he received a message from Liz.
"Have you discovered wizards invading from other planes?"
Su Nan was surprised and immediately rushed to the prison area and saw Li Ze waiting there.
"What happened?"
Li Ze said: "Luoxia City's monitoring network discovered unrecorded energy particle fluctuations. The law enforcement team went to investigate and found that the target was most likely a formal wizard. After the news was reported to me, I immediately dispatched the nearest witch hunting team to arrest the person. It turned out to be a wizard."
The witch hunting corps was proposed by Su Nan. It was the latest puppet corps formed by the Star Alliance, which was completely composed of touch puppets and secret puppets.
Because the purpose of the formation was to deal with wizards who invaded the Starlight Continent in the future, it was named the witch hunting corps.
However, due to the short time of formation, the witch hunting corps is not yet full, and the total number of puppets is just over 100.
Even so, this is the most powerful ace corps of the Star Alliance!
"What is the origin of the other party?" Su Nan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"He claimed to be a travel wizard. When he was exploring the Shadow Realm before, he was attacked by a night shadow giant insect. When he escaped from the Shadow Realm, he accidentally came here."
Travel wizard!
Sunan's expression changed.
Traveling wizards are not a profession, nor a race, but a general term for a type of wizards.
In order to better collect resources, wizards are usually used to forming forces or joining a wizard force, but there are always exceptions.
Some wizards don't like to be bound. They are keen to explore various planes and enjoy the unknown and excitement of adventure.
Such wizards are often strong and have mastered various means of crossing planes. They are either exploring planes or on the way to explore planes all year round.
If the previous travelers successfully promoted to wizards, they would most likely become a member of the traveling wizards.
"He doesn't know how he got here?"
Liz nodded: "According to him, the situation was too critical at the time, and there might be a mistake somewhere, and he was accidentally teleported from the Shadow Realm to here."
Sunan's eyes flashed.
The Shadow Realm is a very special plane.
There is no sun and moon, no stars, and the sky is always gloomy.
There are no humans living in it, only all kinds of strange shadow creatures, many of which are creatures that accidentally enter and are assimilated by the characteristics of the plane.
For example, nightmare beasts, shadow horses, twisted tree monsters, night shadow giant insects, etc.
Even wizards, if they stay in the shadow world for a long time, will gradually be assimilated by the plane, and eventually become shadow creatures that lose their reason and rely only on instinct to act.
It is worth mentioning that the shadow world is not a material plane like the Starlight Continent, but an outer plane like the elemental plane.
The characteristic of this outer plane is that the barrier with the material plane is thinner, and the difficulty of plane crossing is lower.
Perhaps this is why the wizard was able to pass through the plane barrier and enter the Starlight Continent.
This also shows that the plane barrier of the Starlight Continent has been repaired for the most part, and the blockade is gradually being lifted, so this low-probability event will occur. (End of this chapter)
