Chapter 437 - 256: Advancement to Level 3 Wizard (Part 2)
Feeling the strong energy particle fluctuations remaining in the surrounding void, Sunan’s face revealed a heartfelt smile of joy.
The third talent crystal, "Fallen Star Shower," has been constructed.
This also means that from this moment, he has advanced to a Level 3 Wizard!
Life essence has evolved once again!
And at this moment, it has been less than six hundred years since he advanced to Level 2 Wizard.
Breaking through from Level 2 to Level 3 in just over five hundred and seventy years, this pace of advancement is comparable to those True Spirit Descendants!
"It’s all thanks to the Pearl of Spirit, or else I would have needed at least seven or eight hundred more years to take this step!"
Sunan was heartily delighted.
Successfully advancing to Level 3 Wizard gives him more confidence in confronting the Dark Throne.
It took Sunan quite a while to snap out of the ecstasy of the breakthrough and immediately checked the state of his Sea of Consciousness.
The three talent crystals are lined up in a row, like the most exquisite gemstones in the world.
Two of them are surrounded by countless crystals, while the other is shrouded in mist, intermittently visible.
The abundant spiritual power in the Sea of Consciousness gave Sunan a feeling of intoxication.
"Next is to continue refining spiritual power."
A Level 3 Wizard also has to go through the stages of gasification, liquefaction, and crystallization; but after breaking through to crystallization, there’s no need to construct talent crystals anymore, instead, one must condense True Spirit, communicate with the multiverse rules, and begin to engage with the Power of Law.
Once successful, one can advance to True Spirit Wizard!
That is a realm countless wizards dream of achieving!
"True Spirit Wizard, huh..."
Sunan let out a long breath.
Don’t be fooled by how Level 3 Wizard and True Spirit Wizard differ by just one realm, it’s precisely this realm that has halted countless wizard’s progress.
In the multiverse, a True Spirit Wizard is already considered a top-tier combat force, a magnificent existence that can slay gods!
Countless wizards pursue truth relentlessly, but those who ultimately become a True Spirit Wizard are one in a million.
Shaking his head, Sunan collected his thoughts.
Before condensing True Spirit, there are still the two major thresholds of liquefaction and crystallization, and following a routine cultivation process would take at least a thousand years.
The True Spirit Wizard is still far from him, it’s better to deal with the current crisis first.
"The Starlight Wizard Tower has been upgraded, and all necessary preparations are completed."
Over the past year or so, other than cultivation, Sunan hasn’t neglected upgrading the Starlight Wizard Tower, soon completing the last points of upgrade progress.
This includes strengthening Tower Spirit No. 3, completing Wizard-level puppets, and upgrading the Maze Lock Protective Energy Field.
Now, the Starlight Wizard Tower is a genuine medium-sized wizard tower, and it’s a reinforced version.
The main improvements are seen in its oversized Elemental Pool and Maze Lock Protective Energy Field.
If the long-range strike firepower and Puppet Legion’s overall strength could be enhanced, Sunan believes the Starlight Wizard Tower can hold its own against large wizard towers.
"After resolving the matters with the Dark Throne, I must quickly acquire the design diagrams for plasma cannons and pulse cannons."
Coming back to himself, Sunan left the control center and went to the study.
Lize was engrossed in reviewing documents and suddenly sensing something, looked up to find Sunan, her eyes flashing a hint of a smile.
She was about to speak when, as if sensing something, she looked Sunan up and down, gradually revealing a look of shock.
"You’ve advanced to Level 3 Wizard?"
Sunan smiled and nodded, "I just advanced recently."
Lize pursed her lips and took a light breath to suppress the strong shock within her heart.
No matter how many times she had experienced the surprises brought by Sunan, at this moment, she was deeply shocked again.
It should be known that Sunan just broke through to Level 2 Crystallization seventeen years ago, yet within such a short time, he successfully constructed the third talent crystal and advanced to Level 3 Wizard; this speed is simply astonishing!
Even with the absorption assistance of fifty Pearls of Spirit, it is still quite exaggerated!
"... I sometimes really wonder if you are a True Spirit Descendant!"
After a long silence, Lize finally uttered this with a sigh.
Sunan sat opposite her, laughing as he said, "If I were a True Spirit Descendant, I wouldn’t have to worry about the Dark Throne’s attack here; I’d simply call in backup."
"You’re right." Lize slightly raised the corners of her mouth, her mood obviously improving.
The impending attack of the Dark Throne weighed heavily on her heart like a mountain, intensely pressuring her.
However, Sunan’s breakthrough and advancement at this time greatly alleviated her pressure, making her feel significantly more eased.
"You’ve come at the right time, take a look at these documents."
Lize gestured, and the documents on the desk floated up and landed before Sunan.
Sunan’s spiritual power quickly scanned over them, quickly comprehending the content.
It was the expansion details of the Star Alliance’s military power over the past year, mostly achieving the goals he and Lize had initially discussed.
The final document was a summary of the Star Alliance’s current combat strength.
Apart from the Golem Legion, Demon Pattern Knight Order, and the Flying Fleet, it also included Wizards, Witch Hunting Legion, Starlight Academy, the imperial army, and Sub-dragon Species and Giant Dragons from Dragon Forest.
As of now, the Star Alliance has eighty-three Wizards, including five at Level 1 Liquefaction.
As for Level 1 Crystallization, there are none.
Honestly speaking, this number of Wizards is absolutely at the bottom among various Wizard Influences.
There’s no other way; the Star Alliance has been established for too short a time, and given the environmental limitations of the Starlight Continent, every conceivable debuff is stacked up.
The birth of over eighty Wizards is mostly thanks to Sunan providing substantial resources.
Fortunately, there’s the Witch Hunting Legion.
With the focus on investment from the Star Alliance, the Witch Hunting Legion’s scale is now expanded to seven hundred and thirty.
This includes six hundred and fifty Master-Touch Puppets and eighty Secret Puppets.
Factoring in the Witch Hunting Legion, the Star Alliance’s Wizard-level combat power is at least not at the bottom.
"Should the Wizard Apprentices from Starlight Academy be allowed to participate in the war?" Lize inquired, "Not to mention Level 1 and Level 2 Wizard Apprentices, but Level 3 Wizard Apprentices already possess significant combat power, adequate for warfare."
Sunan thought for a moment and shook his head, "Let’s forget about it, let them handle logistics."
The Star Alliance doesn’t have many Wizard-level combat forces, so Wizards must participate in the war.
But Wizard Apprentices should be exempted.
His positioning for Wizard Apprentices has always been pragmatic labor rather than combat strength.
Especially Level 3 Wizard Apprentices, who are future Wizard prospects, important labor forces for the Star Alliance; Sunan is unwilling to waste these individuals as cannon fodder, that would be too wasteful.
Puppets can be reforged if lost, but if too many Level 3 Wizard Apprentices perish, it would inevitably shake the foundation of the Star Alliance.
"The imperial army can enter into war, as for the Dragon Forest, leave the Sub-dragon Species out, but the Giant Dragons can take the battlefield."
The number of Sub-dragon Species in Dragon Forest isn’t many, even deploying them wouldn’t significantly boost the Star Alliance’s combat power, and it would cost a considerable amount of spirit talismans for control, not worth it.
Moreover, if the Sub-dragon Species suffer heavy casualties, it would definitely impair future plans for expanding Sub-dragon Knight squads and breeding Giant Dragons.
Sunan won’t engage in such self-defeating actions.
"Is the control over Giant Dragons alright?"
"No problem," Lize smiled faintly, "Your improved spirit talismans work well, not a single one of the seventeen Flame Tyrant Dragons has shown any sign of resistance; they are quite suitable as war machines."
Sunan nodded with satisfaction.
Giant Dragons are inherently the favored on battlefields, whether it’s their dragon might or breath, they can exert a remarkable effect on the battlefield.
In terms of destructive power alone, two or three Wizards of comparable strength cannot compare to a single Giant Dragon.
"Thank you for your hard work." Sunan nodded towards Lize.
Lize shook her head, saying nothing.
As long as they can repel the upcoming attack from the Dark Throne, the Star Alliance can join the Wisdom Codex and become its affiliate organization.
And with the Wisdom Codex behind them, collecting the materials needed for reconstructing a body would become simpler.
Soon enough, she will be able to regain her human form.
Sunan stood up, his deep gaze seemingly penetrating walls, looking far into the horizon’s end.
All preparations are complete; next is waiting for the planar blockade to be lifted.
Counting the time, it should be about right.
