Chapter 369 - 223: The Inexhaustible Treasure Trove (Part 2)

In the potion room, the bubbling sound of boiling liquid was constant.

Sunan, using the hand of a Mage, placed the final ingredient into the liquid, which immediately turned deep blue like the night sky, as if blue ink had been dropped into it, and gradually stopped boiling.

Sunan removed the glass from the flame lamp, and ice energy particles dispersed, quickly bringing the liquid down to room temperature, and then poured it into a potion bottle.

With this, a potion was completed.

Sunan placed it into the cube, and a line of information instantly appeared on the synthesis interface.

[Intermediate Construction Potion (Tier 2/High quality), increases Spiritual Activity Level upon consumption, enhances the speed of Talent Crystal Model construction, duration dependent on potion efficacy, does not stack, requires 60 points of Spiritual Power for the user.]

"Succeeded!"

A joyful smile appeared on Sunan’s face.

After spending so much time and effort, he finally succeeded in developing a weakened version of the Construction Potion.

With this, it is possible to synthesize a potion that is not inferior to the original Construction Potion.

Returning from his excitement, Sunan tirelessly produced dozens of bottles of Intermediate Construction Potion and placed them into the cube one by one, quickly resulting in a bottle of Tier 3 high-quality Construction Potion.

"The best Construction Potion in the Tower of Stars is only of medium quality, and most are low quality. In terms of efficacy, the one I have is about 30% more effective."

Sunan estimated that the cost of such a bottle of Construction Potion is about 122,000 Gold Coins.

Honestly, this cost has already far exceeded the cost of manually creating Construction Potions.

But in the current environment, having it at all is already very good.

At least concerning the importance of Construction Potions, this cost is still within an acceptable range.

"For an ordinary middle-level Talent Crystal Model, three bottles of Tier 3 high-quality Construction Potion are enough, costing just under 370,000 Gold Coins."

For any Level 3 Wizard Apprentice who can meet the standards for constructing a Talent Crystal, earning 370,000 Gold Coins is not difficult. Most of the time, they have money but cannot buy Construction Potions.

"With the method to synthesize Construction Potions, nurturing Wizards in the Star Alliance becomes possible."

Looking at the vibrant blue potion in the tube, a satisfied smile appeared on Sunan’s face.

A qualified Wizard Influence must master the method of creating Construction Potions.

Otherwise, without being able to cultivate Wizards, how can one talk about growth and development?

Without Construction Potions, the difficulty for Level 3 Wizard Apprentices to advance to being Wizards would be twice or three times higher.

Only true geniuses or lucky individuals who happen to acquire resources that speed up the construction of Talent Crystals can advance without using Construction Potions.

Putting away the Construction Potion, Sunan called up his personal panel.

"At the current pace, in another twenty-five to twenty-six years, I should be able to break through to Level 1 Crystallization."

"The Construction Potion is already in place; now just the Talent Crystal Model is left."

The research on the second Talent Crystal Model is ongoing and progressing very smoothly.

After returning from Fallen Star City, Sunan obtained all the Talent Crystal Models from Lize at the Starfall Association.

Apart from the advanced Fallen Star Talent Crystal Model, there were four middle-level and sixteen lower-level Talent Crystal Models, providing him with considerable inspiration.

According to the schedule, there will be ample time to research a finished product before breaking through to Level 1 Crystallization.

One must admit, bringing Lize back as an assistant was a very wise decision.

After quickly familiarizing herself with the affairs of the Star Alliance, Lize swiftly got into her role and managed the Star Alliance in an orderly manner.

Critically, her knowledge has helped Sunan solve many issues.

For instance, the design of the Master-Touch Puppet solved the problem of high-level puppets in the Wizard Tower’s internal Golem Legion.

After studying the Master-Touch Puppet’s design, Sunan decided to use the Refined Gold Golem as the main force, supplemented by a small number of Master-Touch Puppets and Secret Puppets, to form the Wizard Tower’s internal Golem Legion.

The only problem is that some materials for the Master-Touch Puppet cannot be found on the Starlight Continent and require research into corresponding substitute materials.

However, this is at least easier than researching new Wizard-level puppets from scratch.

Another is the problem of soul crystal manufacturing.

During the development of the Rainbow Sea—mainly in battles with Siren Sea Demons and Deep Sea Nagas—the Star Alliance acquired many soul crystals, greatly alleviating the tight usage of soul crystals.

However, with the successive surrender of the Siren Sea Demons and Deep Sea Nagas, how to manufacture more soul crystals became a pressing issue again.

And in response to this, Lize happened to have a solution.

Some Wizards discovered that during the process of Undead transformation, a peculiar energy formed by the fusion of death and life, two completely opposite energies, induces some kind of energy from the plane, subsequently causing a chain reaction that communicates with the Ghosts of this world.

They will crawl out from spatial rifts, eager to win a body to revive.

Thus, some Wizards had a bold idea to use Undead transformation to lure a large number of Ghosts, then use Gemstones to absorb these Ghosts to manufacture a large number of soul crystals.

This method of producing soul crystals costs only a small amount of Gemstones, Gold, and Silver to set up an Undead Conversion Array, and can be implemented even by Level 3 Wizard Apprentices, making it quite convenient.

The only drawback is that the quality of the Ghosts attracted using this method is not very high, at most, only micro and small soul crystals can be manufactured.

However, this is not an issue for Sunan at all.

He only needs micro soul crystals; the soul crystals of other levels can be obtained through synthesis.

So in one practice, after successfully manufacturing more than a dozen micro soul crystals using the lured Ghosts, Sunan immediately promoted this method throughout Starlight Academy and purchased micro soul crystals as tasks, completely solving the problem of insufficient soul crystals in the Star Alliance.

In addition, Lize also mastered the method of constructing Teleportation Arrays.

Although these are just short-distance Teleportation Arrays with a transmission distance not exceeding a thousand kilometers, they are still extremely valuable and hold tremendous significance for improving the Star Alliance’s transportation situation.

Previously, the Star Alliance always relied on the spatial channels of the Dragon Forest for de facto long-distance transport.

But as the Star Alliance’s territory expanded and the number of spatial channels increased, the burden on the Dragon Forest as a transit point became increasingly heavy.

Especially after unifying the Starlight Continent, at its peak, more than 500 city-states used the Dragon Forest as a transit point for transporting supplies daily, affecting its normal operations.

Carolina had long reported this issue to Sunan.

But back then, Sunan didn’t have a solution until the appearance of Lize.

The advent of the Teleportation Array was like rain at the right time.

Starting in the second year of Lize managing the Star Alliance on behalf of Sunan, the plan to build the teleportation network began to be implemented comprehensively on the Starlight Continent.

Although the progress of this plan is rather slow due to a lack of manpower, Sunan is very optimistic about its prospects.

Once the teleportation network is fully laid out, the Star Alliance’s transport capacity will undoubtedly take a qualitative leap.

If in the future, the number and density of Teleportation Arrays can be further increased, and the cost of using them can be reduced to allow ordinary people to use them, it will undoubtedly greatly boost economic development.

Transportation is the artery of the economy and the link of civilization.

Comprehensive, developed, and convenient transportation conditions can significantly promote the prosperity of commerce and trade, increase the frequency and scale of economic activities, and consequently drive rapid economic growth.

The importance of the teleportation network to the development of the Starlight Continent is on par with secondary Magic Energy technology.

In Sunan’s eyes, Lize is like an inexhaustible treasure trove, each time unearthing knowledge of incalculable value.

He eagerly anticipates that Lize will bring more changes to the Star Alliance, further strengthening its development.
