It was densely packed with lines and text, a map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the Human-faced Lion City State.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose pointed to a spot on the map, then moved her finger to another point not far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is where the Wizard inheritance is located.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan glanced at her in surprise, \"Looks like you’ve spent quite some time in the underground world to have even drawn a map.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s just a small area, not even one percent of the total area of the underground world,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose shrugged, suddenly seemed to remember something, and said with a smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you want it? Ten magical stones for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Deal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a second thought, Sunan agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was immensely valuable information!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he possessed his past life’s memory, it would have been impossible to memorize the extensive terrain of the underground world completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no impression of the area around the Human-faced Lion City State at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had Rose’s map, it would undoubtedly make future actions much less troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The key part was that the map also marked out several discovered mineral veins’ locations and approximate reserves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this map, once he dealt with the threat of the Human-faced Lion City State in the future, he could follow the map to develop the mineral veins in this area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This alone made ten magical stones worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, and there are Divine Blood Ambers, a total of six, I’ll give them to you as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Sunan paid a total of one hundred and thirty magical stones and acquired a map and six Divine Blood Ambers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When do you plan to act?\" Rose asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The sooner, the better. Let’s go now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan didn’t want to delay for too long since the Human-faced Lion City State was like a ticking time bomb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to settle the Wizard inheritance matter quickly so he could prepare to deal with the Human-faced Lion City State.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose had no objections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them did a quick rest and then set out on their journey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering that the Human-faced lions might still be searching for their whereabouts, they cautiously distanced themselves from the Lake Heart Island, circled around using the Floating Skill, and crossed the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Rose leading the way, it didn’t take long for them to find a cave entrance on the rocky wall deep within the cavern, which they then entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond the cave was a long tunnel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose took out a glowing Crystal Stone and quietly led the way ahead, occasionally checking the map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Traveling in the underground world was entirely different from the surface world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, there were no distinct landmarks or wide-open views, only labyrinthine passages resembling a spider’s web and omnipresent darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the most experienced travelers, armed with detailed maps, found it challenging to navigate such an environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the interference from ground radiation, devices like compasses were utterly useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, getting lost was the greatest challenge faced in the underground world, even for native inhabitants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this wasn’t an issue for Level 3 Wizard Apprentices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The immense Spiritual Power of a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice endowed each one with a photographic memory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could recognize even the most complex paths if they walked them once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the journey, relying on the map and their memory, Rose never got lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After about half a day’s journey, they finally reached their destination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Wizard inheritance I found is in there,\" Rose indicated, pointing at a distant, pitch-black cave entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan focused his gaze; the entrance was unexpectedly enormous, a semicircle with a radius of about ten meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The faint light outside couldn’t penetrate inside, making it look like a silent black hole, inducing a sense of dread from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Refined Gold Golem is inside. Once you’re within fifty meters of the cave, it will appear and issue a warning. If you don’t leave within half a minute or if you initiate an attack, it will attack intruders.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, as long as you retreat beyond one hundred meters from the cave, it will cease its pursuit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A golem is somewhat similar to a robot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a controller to issue commands, it acts according to pre-set programs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Refined Gold Golem that Rose mentioned clearly had the duty of protecting this Wizard inheritance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s akin to the Black Rock Leopard that ambushed them when he discovered the Wizard inheritance in the mines of Black Rock City four years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get ready,\" Sunan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be careful. That Refined Gold Golem is very formidable,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose warned sternly as if she’d suffered quite a setback from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan nodded and said nothing, taking a step toward the cave entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he stepped within fifty meters of the entrance, heavy footsteps echoed from the darkness, followed by the appearance of a massive figure, seven or eight meters tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Refined Gold Golem looked remarkably similar to a Steel Golem, apart from its dark red hue and the cold metallic sheen it reflected under the faint light, giving off a chilling aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Intruder detected! Warning! Please evacuate the area immediately, or eradication will commence!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Intruder detected...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Refined Gold Golem emitted a repetitive, cold mechanical voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without another word, Sunan launched his assault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the onset, he unleashed a fierce and deadly attack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, countless silver liquids oozed from Sunan’s pores, swirling around him and rapidly transforming into countless sharp spikes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, accompanied by a deafening sonic boom, countless densely packed spikes shot forth, engulfing the Refined Gold Golem like a metallic storm!\u003C\u002Fp>",952,"2026-06-06T02:33:43.453Z",1,"novelbin.me","c8e201844ff7ad1f6ef326a1d80c0191b26c69cda206ce9d56b2f402d978a6e1","synthetic-wizard-chapter-132","synthetic-wizard-chapter-130",369,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsynthetic-wizard-cover.jpg"]
