Synthesis Wizard.

Chapter 128 I advise you not to do anything stupid

Traveler!
Sunan was slightly startled. He didn't expect to hear the traveler's name here.

"When did you meet that wizard?" Su Nan asked calmly.

Evans never thought that the man in front of him belonged to the same wizard organization as the traveler. He thought for a moment and said, "About three years ago."

Su Nan's heart moved.

This timing coincides with the time when the travelers stopped attending the party.

Could it be true that the traveler has died somewhere in the underworld as the corpse said?
"What happens next?" Su Nan asked.

Evans shook his head. "I only stayed with the traveler for two days before leaving the underground world. As for the traveler, before he left, I heard him say that he planned to go deeper into the underground world. I don't know what happened after that."

Sunan was slightly disappointed.

If he knew where the traveler was going, he would like to meet this wizard apprentice who loves exploring and adventuring everywhere. Maybe he could get a lot of valuable information.

After chatting for a while and asking for some information about the three wizards, the two ended the conversation.

"In a few days, the royal family will announce its surrender."

Before leaving, Evans left these words.

Outside the tavern, in a building not far away, Key and the Marquis of White Tower were waiting for news.

Seeing Evans leisurely leaving the tavern, the two men looked at each other in surprise and suspicion.

When Sunan came back, Keyi immediately asked impatiently, "What's the situation?"

Sunan briefly recounted the incident, but did not mention the Tower of Stars. He only said that Evans had traded something very precious with him.

After hearing this, Key and the Marquis of Baita looked at each other in bewilderment.

They never expected that Evans came alone to surrender.

This was really beyond their expectations!

But when they came to their senses, they were a little surprised.

Although we are confident that we can win this war, it would undoubtedly be better if we can take over Hongye Province without bloodshed.

As for leaving a little bloodline to the Kessler family, it doesn't matter.

At best, he is just a collateral descendant and is insignificant.

"Next we have to wait for news from Hongye Province."

Sunan looked towards the direction of Star City and felt slightly relieved.

Once this war is over, he can focus his energy back on the underground world.

There are still many things waiting for him to do.

Collect materials for refining secret dolls, search for descendants of ancient beasts, and deal with the crisis of Kasham.

I still can't relax after I go back.

Astral Calendar Year 1254, the Month of Sleep (December).

Grand Duke Fanxing committed suicide by taking poison, and all the royal family members, including the Grand Duke, announced their surrender.

The Shining Army then entered Star City and took over military and political power.

At this point, this war that attracted countless people's attention finally came to an end.

The Shining Territory successfully overthrew the royal family of the Principality and occupied the entire territory of the Star Principality.

A new Grand Duke of the Stars was born.

Cangjin Empire, Holy Flame City.

Deep inside the Imperial Palace, in the study.

The master of the empire, Emperor Cang Jin, was sitting behind his desk, reading the secret report in his hands attentively.

The Scepter sat opposite, sipping the fragrant scented tea, looking a little dazed, as if he was thinking about something, with his mind scattered.

After a long time, Emperor Cang Jin put down the secret report in his hand, and a hint of sneer flashed across his majestic panel.

"Evans Kessler was straightforward. He did nothing but surrender to the rebels, even sacrificing almost all the royal family members. He was quite diligent as a guardian of the royal family."

The tone was full of sarcasm.

The Scepter said leisurely: "I think he did the right thing."

"If Evans really loses his mind and goes to fight Sunan to the death, he will have no other end except death, and the Starry Royal Family will eventually be wiped out without a single person left alive."

"Now he has at least preserved a little bloodline for the Kessler family. This is the best outcome."

Emperor Cang Jin frowned slightly and asked solemnly, "Is Sunan really that powerful?"

"It's awesome!"

The scepter said without thinking, and as if to add credibility to his words, he added another sentence.

"At least I am no match for him."

Emperor Cang Jin fell silent immediately.

He had known the wizard in front of him for as long as he could remember, and knew how mysterious and powerful the other person was.

However, even this wizard who he considered to be extremely powerful admitted that he was not as good as Su Nan, which made his fear of Su Nan rise to several levels.

After a long silence, Emperor Cang Jin suddenly asked, "Is there any way to deal with Sunan?"

The Scepter took a sip of scented tea with a calm expression, seemingly not surprised at all that Emperor Cang Jin would say such a thing.

After putting down the teacup, he replied slowly:

"I advise you not to do anything stupid."

Emperor Cang Jin frowned and said, "If you are worried that you can't deal with Sunan alone, then invite a few more helpers, such as other wizards in the jungle hut."

"Sunan is also a member of the Jungle Lodge."

"So what? As long as the benefits are great, those people will definitely not refuse to help. Aren't wizards all pragmatists who put benefits above all else?"

"makes sense."

The Scepter paid no attention to the sarcasm hidden in the words of the Cang Jin Emperor, but nodded in agreement.

But immediately, he spread his hands.

"But the problem is, no matter how much benefit you get, it is not as valuable as life."

"To be honest, I still can't tell the depth of Sunan's strength."

"After all, the resources he controls are so amazing. No one knows how strong Sunan is after all these years of accumulation and training, and how many cards he has in his hands."

"Then again, the power that Sunan has shown so far is enough to make people not want to deal with him."

"I advise you to give up your unrealistic thoughts. The other people in the jungle hut are not fools. No matter how much benefit you offer, they will not agree to help you deal with Sunan."

"On the contrary, I think they are likely to be tempted by the benefits offered by Sunan and turn against you."

As the scepter spoke, the Cang Jin Empire's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"Are we just going to watch the Principality of Stars rise?"

Anyone who knows the history of Key's rise to wealth will be unable to help but marvel at the miracle.

In just six years, Key had grown rapidly from an exiled nobleman and lord of a border city to the Shining Baron, Shining Marquis, and now the Grand Duke!
The power is growing so fast and the territory is expanding so quickly that it is no exaggeration to describe it as a miracle!

And all this is because of Sunan's support behind the scenes!

In time, if the new Principality of Stars is allowed to continue to develop, it may one day surpass the Cangjin Empire and become the new overlord of the southeast region of the continent. By then, the Cangjin Empire will be in danger.

As the ruler of the Cangjin Empire, he absolutely could not tolerate such a thing happening!
In recent years, the Cangjin Empire has been dominating the southeast region and has had many conflicts with neighboring countries, including the Principality of Fanxing.

In fact, if the empire had not just conquered a country not long ago and needed time to recuperate and recover, it would have sent troops long ago when there was civil unrest in the Principality of Stars.

No one expected that things would turn out like this.

If he had known this would be the case, he would have intervened in the civil strife in the Principality of Stars without hesitation.

"Look away."

The Scepter gave a calm and persuasive speech.

"The Principality of Stars has just ended a huge war, and it will take more than ten years for it to recover."

"And even if Sunan supports it from behind, it will take at least several dozen or even hundreds of years for the Principality of Stars to grow and become strong enough to replace the Empire."

"You'll have already turned into a pile of bones by then, why worry so much?"

Emperor Cang Jin's face turned dark.

What are these words?

As the ruler of a country, if he does not consider the long-term interests of the empire and only cares about his own immediate concerns, then what qualifications does he have to sit on the throne?

"You are also a member of the empire, and a member of the royal family. Why are you unwilling to contribute to the empire?"

The Scepter was not fooled by this. "I have fulfilled my responsibilities as a member of the royal family fifty years ago. Since then, the Empire and I have only been in a cooperative relationship. You provide me with resources and I solve your problems. It's that simple. Don't put any responsibility on me."

Seeing that Emperor Cang Jin was about to speak, Scepter waved his hand to interrupt him.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. It's up to you to decide what to do. If you get into any trouble, don't expect me to clean up your mess."

The moment the last word fell, the scepter disappeared.

Only Emperor Cang Jin was left sitting alone behind the desk, his expression changing constantly.

Flash City, base.

In front of the task notice board, a group of apprentices were choosing tasks when suddenly a voice came from a distance.

"We won. Our Flashing Army has entered Star City!"

A boy of about twelve or thirteen ran over breathlessly, waving the battle report in his hand with excitement on his face.

Upon hearing this, the people around immediately surrounded them.

"Is this true? A few days ago, weren't there a large number of troops gathered at the border of Hongye Province?"

"Your information is out of date. I heard that the Starry Royal Family surrendered on their own initiative."

"I see. No wonder it ended so quickly."

"Haha, now the Marquis is the new Duke of the Stars!"

"The seniors are here!"

With a loud noise, the crowd parted and Sherman, Corey and Arthur walked in.

"I heard your shouting from far away. Any new battle reports from the front line?" Atil asked with a smile.

Immediately, an apprentice handed over the battle report in a flattering manner.

Xie Man and the other two took it and looked at it, and they all showed joy on their faces.

"Sure enough, with the teacher here, Flash Collar will definitely win!"

Corey smiled as if to predict what would happen, but then he felt a little melancholy.

He was thinking about joining the war after being promoted to a second-level wizard apprentice, but he didn't expect the war to end so soon.

Having a teacher who is too good can be frustrating sometimes.

"The war is over. The teacher should be back soon."

Artil said with a smile, and just as she finished speaking, she felt her shoulders sink, and Amy appeared on her shoulders.

"Meow, Sunan is coming back, that's great!"

Amy said happily.

Su Nan and Yin Long both went to the front line, leaving it alone in the underground world. Although it was quite interesting to explore around in the underground world, after a while, it couldn't help but miss Su Nan and Yin Long.

"I've found a lot of precious cats recently, and I'll give them to Sunan when he comes back."

"The teacher will definitely like the gift from Lady Amy." Artil smiled and touched Amy's head.

The kitten squinted its eyes happily.

"Lord Amy, has the human-faced lion in Youhu City behaved in any unusual way recently?" Corey asked suddenly.

Sunan made a rule that no apprentice could enter Youhu City unless he allowed it.

Among all the apprentices present, only Sheman, Corey and Atil had obtained Sunan's permission to enter Youhu City to handle some chores.

Therefore, the three of them had met Carolina.

Thinking back to the first time he entered the underground world, Sherman still felt amazed.

It was the first time for him to see such a strange and magnificent world.

Before that, he had never imagined that there was such a huge world hidden beneath the surface.

"No, meow." Amy tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Carolina has been pretty well behaved lately, and occasionally helps me drive away some monsters guarding my baby."

Sherman came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Carolina is restricted by the teacher's soul contract, so there is no need to worry that she will do something irrational."

"That's hard to say." Corey snorted coldly, "The Sphinxes are all evil and cunning creatures. The teacher is not in Youhu City, so she might do something tricky."

Artil smiled and patted Amy's head, saying, "Don't worry, Master Amy is watching over you, nothing will happen."

Amy immediately held her head high, patted her chest with her paws, and said proudly, "That's right, meow, I'm here, you can rest assured, I'll keep an eye on Carolina when I get back!"

"Lady Amy is so awesome!" Arthur praised.

Sherman and Corey, who were standing by, saw this and twitched their lips at the same time.

It feels like Lady Amy has been completely controlled by Arthur.

"Okay, everyone, go away and continue to do your own things."

Atil turned and spoke to the group of apprentices.

"The teacher will be out for such a long time this time. When he comes back, he may want to assess our learning progress. Everyone should work harder recently to avoid making mistakes and being scolded by the teacher."

"Yes, senior."

Everyone did as they were told and dispersed.

"You still have a way. You are becoming more and more prestigious as a senior sister." Xie Man said with a smile.

Atil rolled his eyes at him and said softly, "That's because you and Corey have been obsessed with studying and practicing. I don't have as good a talent as you, nor do I work as hard as you do. I have more time to communicate with my juniors, so they listen to me more."

"Okay, aren't you going to take the mission? Go ahead."

Seeing that Artil didn't want to talk more about this topic, Sherman and Corey kept silent and walked towards the bulletin board.

Not far away, Miss Gurley was leaning back in a recliner, watching what had just happened, an intriguing smile on her little face.

“Humans are so interesting.”
