Synthesis Wizard.

Chapter 118 Let them have a taste of this
Astral calendar year 1254, the month of New Moon.

Something happened that shocked the entire Principality of Stars.

The Flashing Marquis Key Yanest openly opposed the Starfire Cult's beliefs and denounced the Cult for assassinating nobles and wreaking havoc on the country.

Three days later, Grand Duke Fanxing publicly rebuked Marquis Flash for his disrespect for the state religion at the court meeting, and ordered Marquis Flash to immediately lift the ban on the Spark Church, allowing the Spark Church to enter the Jinyan Province to spread the faith and establish a church, and to set an example by believing in the Spark Church. Otherwise, he would regard them as traitors and send troops to suppress them.

On the day the decree arrived at the Shining Territory, the Shining Marquis immediately raised the banner of rebellion.

The Marquis of the White Tower then responded.

Thus, following the rebellion of Marquis Jinyan, the second rebellion of the Principality of Stars, which was even more powerful and large-scale, arose.

Grand Duke Fanxing was furious and ordered Marquis Soman, Marquis Zizhu and Marquis Hulan to send troops to attack the rebels.

War is about to break out.

In the meeting hall.

Everyone gathered together.

In addition to Keyi and Sunan, core nobles of the Flashing Territory such as Bretton, Joton, and Starley were also present.

Everyone was discussing the strategic plan enthusiastically.

"The Soman and Zizhu provinces are located behind us. I suggest that we concentrate our forces to take these two provinces first. Then we can concentrate our forces and focus on attacking other provinces without worrying about fires in the rear."

"No, the Soman and Zizhu provinces are not strong. We can suppress them by sending an army to Mengguang City. On the contrary, Hulan Province is coming with great force, so we have to be cautious."

"That's right. During the previous beast disaster, the army of Hulan Province suffered almost no losses and was much stronger than the other two provinces."

"Because they cannot be underestimated, we must first deal with Soman Province and Zizhu Province. Only after stabilizing the rear area can we concentrate on dealing with Hulan Province!"

"That's not what I said."

The people present quickly split into two groups, arguing with each other, each with their own reasons.

Seeing this, Kai was not angry, but looked calmly at Sunan beside him.

"Which one do you think is better?"

Su Nan thought for a moment and asked instead of answering, "Where is the Marquis of Baita?"

"White Tower Province is close to Red Leaf Province. He will help us block the Red Leaf Province's army."

"Among the five provinces currently, in which provinces does the Xinghuo Sect have the strongest influence?" Su Nan asked again.

"Red Leaf Province and Lakeland Province."

Kai said without thinking, obviously he was already familiar with this information.

"The Spark Cult has the full support of the royal family, and its missionary work in the Red Leaf Province is the most successful. It is also the territory where their tentacles spread the widest and their power is the strongest."

"The next is Hulan Province. Many nobles in Hulan Province were assassinated by the Spark Cult. The rest are either puppets supported by them or have interests colluded with them. All medium and large towns in the province have branches of the Spark Cult."

Su Nan's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly smiled and said, "In this case, you should attack Suoman Province and Zizhu Province first, and take down the two weakest territories first."

Ke Yi hesitated and said, "What about Hulan Province?"

"I'm going to go to Hulan Province and cause some trouble for the Spark Cult and the nobles there so that they don't have time to focus on the war."

Su Nan showed a playful smile on his face.

"It can't be that they always go and assassinate others, and nothing happens to them, right?"

“It’s time to give them a taste of this.”

After hearing this, Key smiled, but then he asked with some concern:
"Are you okay? Those guys from the Spark Cult are not easy to deal with!"

"Don't worry, I have a measure."

Su Nan smiled slightly, and although his tone was calm, it carried a convincing calmness and strength.

Hearing him say this, Kai nodded and said no more.

The hall fell silent at some point, and everyone listened quietly to the conversation between the two.

Seeing that the Lord and Lord Sunan had decided on the next strategy in a few words, everyone stopped arguing and accepted it calmly.

A moment later, a group of generals filed out of the gate of the lord's mansion, hurried in different directions.

The war machine called Flash Territory quickly began to operate.

The underground world, Youhu City.

Puppet factory.

Because it is close to the mineral vein, Sunan has been refining golem puppets in the puppet factory here recently.

At this time, there were densely packed double-blade spiders placed in the corner of the puppet factory, filling up almost half of the factory.

"One hundred and eight, ten more to go."

Sunan used the magician's hand to move the iron ingot from the corner and began to refine the double-edged spider.

Before going to Hulan Province, you must make adequate preparations.

It is definitely too late to refine the secret doll because the materials have not been collected yet.

But the second-ring legendary double-blade spider is no problem.

During this period of time, Sunan has been accumulating double-blade spiders.

If we hadn't given a batch to Key in the middle, we would have collected 118 of them by now.

But it’s not much different and can be completed soon.

With sufficient materials, Sunan only spent half a day to refine eight double-edged spiders.

Then, he put all 118 double-blade spiders into the Rubik's Cube and chose to synthesize.

A black light flashed, and a giant spider covered in black suddenly appeared in front of him.

The enhanced double-blade spider did not change much in size, but its body color became darker, emitting a cold metallic luster under the light of the magic stone lamp.

The two sharp forelimbs gleamed with cold light and looked a bit creepy.

"Yes, it's enough to deal with a third-level wizard apprentice like Herb."

Sunan nodded with satisfaction.

A second-ring legendary puppet is enough to deal with a weaker third-level wizard apprentice.

With this extra trump card, this operation will be more reliable.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in." Su Nan said without turning his head.

Carolina slid in, wagging her tail. Her eyes fell on the double-blade spider in front of Sunan, and her body tensed up in an instant.

The wild intuition coming from her blood made her feel a strong threat from this double-bladed spider.

She had only felt similar feelings from her master and the former city lord, Ursula.

Could it be that this double-bladed spider has the same level of combat power as Eusula?
Carolina was suddenly shocked when she thought of this.

She had always known that her master was very good at making puppets, and even had a first-ring legendary puppet, but she had never expected that he even had a second-ring legendary puppet.

If this can be mass-produced, let alone Matu and Orson, ruling the entire underground world will not be a delusion!
"what's up?"

Seeing that Carolina just stared at the double-edged spider without saying a word after coming in, Sunan couldn't help but frown slightly. Carolina came back to her senses and bowed quickly, looking at Sunan with more awe.

"Master, the Red Widow and the Black Duke have sent messengers who want to meet with you."

Su Nan raised his eyebrows: "What do they want?"

"It seems that I want to talk to you about joining forces to deal with Kasham."

join forces?

Sunan was thoughtful.

It seems that the Red Widow and the Black Duke already knew about the change of ownership of Lake City. Otherwise, as Carolina said, the two city-states that joined forces to fight against Kasham last time but were tricked by the Sphinx would not have taken the initiative to come to them to seek cooperation.

Thinking of the spying actions of the two city-states before, Sunan curled his lips and waved his hand, saying: "Send them away perfunctorily. I don't have time to deal with this now. I'll talk about it after I finish my recent work."

Carolina was about to say something, but in the end she said nothing and responded respectfully.

"Yes, Master."

After Carolina left, Sunan put away the double-blade spider and prepared to go to the warehouse to get another batch of golem puppets.

He knew what Carolina wanted to say just now, but he really didn't value the cooperation.

In the past, the Sphinx was unable to fight the bugs of Kasham alone, so it needed to seek cooperation.

Now that Youhu City has greatly increased in strength, even if it does not cooperate with the other two city-states, it has the power to fight against Kasham.

And as time goes by, Youhu City will only become stronger.

If we wait another year or two, it might be possible to counterattack Kasham.

With enough confidence, Sunan had no intention of cooperating with the other two city-states to engage in intrigue.

Thinking more deeply, perhaps it would be possible to use the invasion of Kasham to weaken the power of Matu and Osen, and then annex these two city-states to expand the territory of influence.

Sunan’s target has never been limited to just this corner of the underground world of Youhu City.

But now these are just concepts, and everything depends on the situation in Kasham.

"Let's first deal with the Spark Cult issue."

After coming out of the warehouse, Sunan returned to the ground. He stretched out his hand and the hidden dragon emerged silently from his side.

He leaped onto the back of the hidden dragon and cast a light spiritual spell on it.

The hidden dragon let out a low roar, then stretched out its limbs and ran forward wildly.

Walking out of the workshop, Carolina frowned slightly.

She vaguely knew that a war was about to break out on the surface.

The recent series of movements of the golem puppets also indirectly confirmed this information.

Although the bugs in Kasham are ready to move, there is no sign of invasion for the time being, so it is not surprising that the master focuses on the surface.

But rejecting the Red Widow and Black Duke's requests for cooperation just like that would be a bit vindictive.

After all, from a geographical point of view, Youhu City is more threatened by Kasham. In the past, the Red Widow and the Black Princess saw this point and took advantage of Youhu City many times. Yusula was so angry that she tricked them.

If they just reject the other party like this, and if the Red Widow and the Black Duke also quit out of spite, Youhu City will also have a headache.

But although she thought so in her heart, Carolina did not dare to question her master's decision.

By the time she walked into the meeting room, her beautiful face had regained its calm, without any sign of disturbance.

There are two people sitting in the hall.

On the right was a beautiful woman, her eyes were blood red and her skin was so pale that there was not a trace of blood.

She was wearing a black cloak and had a somewhat cold temperament.

This is a messenger from Matu, a vampire.

On the left is a humanoid creature with a skull head, wrapped in shriveled flesh, and its skin is a strange blue-gray color.

It has a pair of sharp claws on its hands, and strange green flames flash in its empty eye sockets.

But what is more eye-catching is the ball of dark flame on top of its head, which surrounds its head like a corona.

It was clearly a flame, but it did not emit any heat at all. Instead, it gave off a chilling aura.

This is a messenger from Orsen, a ghoul.

"I'm sorry, both of you. The master is busy right now and cannot meet you. Please come back next time."

Carolina said straight to the point as she entered the hall.

As soon as these words came out, the female vampire Matu's face suddenly darkened. She suppressed her dissatisfaction and said, "Are you kidding me, Carolina? I came all the way to Youhu City in person, but you used such a ridiculous reason to fool me. Do you think that Matu is easy to bully?"

Carolina said calmly, "I didn't mean that, but the master is indeed very busy, or you can stay here for a while, and when the master is done, he can meet you."

"Wait? How long?" The female vampire's face was gloomy. "Carolina, we didn't bother with you about the last incident. We even came to discuss cooperation. We were very sincere. And this is how you respond to our sincerity?"

Carolina was unmoved: "That was Ursula's doing. It has nothing to do with my master."

The female vampire was so angry that she was about to say something else, but was interrupted by Orson's corpse messenger.

"It seems that Youhu City has no sincerity in cooperation."

The corpse messenger stood up and glanced at Carolina indifferently, the soul fire in his eyes emitting a cold light.

"In that case, there is no need for me to stay any longer."

After he finished speaking, the corpse messenger walked out of the hall without hesitation.

The vampire herald frowned, then stood up and left.

"You're going to regret this, Carolina!"

As the corpse ghost messenger walked out of Youhu City, he heard a strong wind behind him and the female vampire was chasing him.

"You seem to be quite open-minded. Carolina is obviously just trying to fool us, but you are not angry at all?"

The corpse messenger glanced at her and said calmly, "So what if you're angry? Do you still want to fight Carolina on her territory?"

"Besides, Youhu City has already made its attitude clear. I only need to report this matter to Lord Black Duke. As for what to do next, that is something he needs to consider."

After hearing what the corpse messenger said, the female vampire's expression gradually relaxed, but she was still a little unhappy.

"That bitch Carolina used to act so proud, but now she's groveling before a human being. She's so despicable!"

"That's not an ordinary human, but a wizard."

The soul flame in the corpse's eye sockets flickered, as if it was in deep thought.

"Looking at Carolina, it seems that she is willing to become the wizard's slave. If you are not an extremely powerful person, I am afraid there is no way to make Carolina surrender like that."

"The new Lord of Youhu City may be more powerful than we expected!"

"Humph."

The female vampire snorted disdainfully.

"No matter how powerful you are, can you fight against Kasham's bugs alone?"

"Just wait and see. When the bugs in Kasham show any unusual movements, they will come back to beg us!"
