Chapter 155: Clues to the Black Forest, Repairing the Elemental Pool
In the brightly lit reception room.

Sunan and the traveler sat opposite each other, talking and laughing.

"How did you rest these three days?"

"Very good." The traveler smiled. "It's been a long time since I've lived in such a comfortable room in the underground world. In the past, I lived in caves for convenience. Occasionally, when I entered a city-state, I could only stay in a simple tavern."

Su Nan became interested after hearing this and asked curiously, "Which city-state is it from?"

"The city-state of the dark elves is more than a thousand kilometers away from here."

"Can you tell me more about it?"

"Of course." The traveler agreed happily.

During the three days he lived in Youhu City, he toured the entire city-state. Although he was not able to visit Base No. 2, which interested him the most, he gained a general understanding of the power of Youhu City.

The current military strength of Youhu City is far greater than it was eight years ago.

It can be said that the military force of Youhu City alone is enough to destroy some small countries on the surface.

Moreover, the forces under Sunan’s command include more than just Youhu City, there are also Matu and Orson.

Although I haven't visited them in detail, from the information I have learned indirectly in the past few days, the military strength of these two city-states is probably not much inferior to that of Youhu City.

The three city-states merged together and became known as the Star Alliance.

From the name, we can tell that Sunan’s ambition is definitely more than just three city-states.

The more the traveler learned, the more he felt that Sunan was mysterious and profound.

He even had a vague feeling that what he currently knew was just the tip of the iceberg of the power and resources under Sunan's command!
If there is anyone else on the continent who can be promoted to a formal wizard, the traveler feels that Sunan is definitely one of the most promising candidates.

Faced with such a person with unlimited potential, a casual person like him couldn't help but want to make friends with him and build a good relationship with him.

If some information could win Sunan's favor, it would undoubtedly be worth it.

"That dark elf city-state is called Demon Spider City. There are twelve dark elf families living there. The matriarchs of all the families form the Supreme Council and rule the entire city-state."

"There are more than 6,000 dark elves in Demon Spider City alone. In addition, there are no less than 50,000 vassal races and even more slaves. Whether in terms of foundation or strength, it can be firmly ranked in the top three in the entire Southeast Region."

Spider City?
Relevant memories immediately emerged in Su Nan's mind.

The races in the underground world are as numerous as stars.

In terms of population alone, the dark elves wouldn't even make it into the top thousand.

But in terms of combat effectiveness, the dark elves can definitely rank among the top three.

If the dark elves did not like to fight among themselves and waste most of their energy on internal power struggles, they would have unified the entire southeast region long ago.

Su Nan vaguely remembered that when the elements revived in the previous life, the dark elves seemed to have unified the entire southeastern region of the underground world.

I don’t know how they achieved internal unity?
Having said that, the Star Alliance and Demon Spider City are less than 2,000 kilometers apart. Whether it is the Star Alliance's outward expansion or the Demon Spider City's expansion of power, it seems that they will collide sooner or later.

It seems that we need to take early prevention measures.

Although his thoughts were racing, Su Nan remained calm and listened patiently to the traveler's story, interrupting him from time to time to ask a few questions.

One has to admit that the traveler's understanding of the distribution of forces in the underground world is far more detailed than the few bits and pieces of memory in his head.

Listening to the traveler's narration, Sunan quickly sketched out a detailed map of the distribution of forces covering an area of ​​a thousand miles around the Star Alliance in his mind.

With this map of power distribution, the future expansion of the Star Alliance will undoubtedly be much smoother.

"Do you know where there is a silver mine?"

After the traveler finished speaking, Sunan suddenly asked.

The traveler thought about it carefully and said hesitantly, "Yes, there are, but they all have owners."

"It doesn't matter." Sunan didn't care about this. "Where is it?"

"It's near Giant Eye City. It's a medium-sized silver mine, an asset of Giant Eye City."

Sunan was immediately cheered up.

Even if only half of the medium-sized silver mine is mined, it will be enough to make up for the gap in refining the secret doll.

We must get this silver mine!

The Giant Eye City mentioned by the traveler is located 300 kilometers north of the Star Alliance, just a little further away from the area where the Eye Demon Tribe was discovered earlier.

Sunan guessed that the Eye Demon tribes were most likely the losers in the power struggle in Giant Eye City and were exiled to the wild.

The ruler of the Eye City is a Nest Mother Eye.

It sounds like a female, but in fact, like ordinary eye demons, it has no concept of gender.

The name actually comes from its special ability to dominate other beholders.

Through this ability, the Eye of the Nest Mother can often subdue a large number of Eye Demons to serve itself, which is also the origin of the Eye Demon City-State.

The fighting power of the Eye of the Nest Mother itself is not very strong, only slightly stronger than the ordinary Eye Demon, and at best it is at the level of a first-ring legendary.

The tricky part is the group of beholders under its command.

There are often hundreds or even thousands of them, and there are also some legendary eye demon mutants.

Judging from the traveler's words alone, Giant Eye City is even stronger than the original Lake City.

But Sunan didn't take it too seriously.

Sending a platinum golem to lead the golem army is enough to easily flatten the Giant Eye City.

Having decided to leave the matter to the Red Widow, Sunan then brought up another topic.

"Speaking of which, why don't you build your own power?"

"With your strength, it shouldn't be difficult to take down a city-state, right?"

The traveler smiled and shook his head: "Forget it, I'm not that type of person, and I don't like to spend too much time on developing power. In comparison, I prefer to explore and adventure around, see more scenery, and there are many magnificent views on this continent that I have never seen before."

"But if you don't build your own power, it will be difficult to gather resources."

"I'm not alone." The traveler shrugged, "I still cooperate with several great nobles, which is enough."

After a pause, he showed a sigh again and said:

"Besides, what does it matter if we collect more resources?"

"Given the current situation in Starlight Continent, if you want to become a wizard, it is not something that can be solved by having more resources."

"The only way to break this deadlock is to find the legendary three wizard inheritances. I have been looking for them over the years."

At this point, the traveler's eyes flickered slightly.

Sunan saw it all, his heart skipped a beat, and he stared at the traveler with sharp eyes.

"Did you find any clues?"

The traveler hesitated, but finally nodded in acknowledgment.

"Yes."

"Which wizard's legacy is this?"

"Black Forest."

Sunan's eyes lit up and he smiled slightly, "How about this, I won't take advantage of you. You tell me the clues to the Black Forest, and I'll tell you the clues to the Tower of Stars. How about that?"

"Deal!" The traveler agreed without hesitation.

Su Nan was startled, then reacted quickly.

When Demon Hand and Blood Mouth were communicating before, they mentioned the key to the Tower of Stars. I think the traveler heard it then and took it to heart. The clues about the Black Forest mentioned now seem to be waiting for him here.

This guy is actually quite cunning.

Meeting Sunan's meaningful gaze, the traveler smiled awkwardly and said:

"I can sign a vow contract to guarantee that the information I give you is 100% true!" Of course Sunan would not refuse.

After signing the oath contract, the two began to exchange information.

"I got the clue about the Black Forest in Demon Spider City."

"The third generation matriarch of the Philier family, one of the twelve families in Demon Spider City, is said to have entered a strange forest and gained powerful strength from it. That's how she defeated all her competitors and inherited the position of matriarch of the family."

"I have infiltrated the Filier family and checked their books. This incident is indeed recorded there, but I have no way of knowing more detailed information."

"According to my guess, if this is true, then such important information will definitely only be passed on by word of mouth. Perhaps only the successive matrons of the Philier family know about it."

The Philier family?
There was a thoughtful gleam in Su Nan's eyes.

In any case, now that we have a clue, we must investigate it.

It looks like contact with the Demon Spider City is inevitable.

Even if the other party doesn't come to him, he will still go find him.

After coming to his senses, Sunan told the clues about the Tower of Stars truthfully.

"A new member has recently joined the Jungle Lodge. His name is Hunter. Have you heard about it?"

The traveler shook his head. He hadn't seen a night owl for almost two years, so he naturally had no idea of ​​the latest movements of the jungle cabin.

"In a previous gathering, the hunter sold a key to the Starry Tower. With the key, you can locate the Starry Tower when it appears and enter it. I guess the hunter may have more keys. You may be able to start from this aspect."

Upon hearing this, the traveler secretly thought it was a pity.

If he had known that a rare item like the Star Tower Key would appear, he would have gone to the party.

It’s a pity that he was being hunted by the evil hand during that time and had no time to attend the party.

"Hunter? I guess I have to find a way to contact him privately." The traveler thought to himself.

At this time, Sunan suddenly threw something over. The traveler subconsciously caught it, looked down, and found it was a space ring.

"This is..." The traveler cast a puzzled look at Su Nan.

"It's a matter of reciprocity. You gave me so much information, so I have to give you some gifts." Sunan said with a smile.

The traveler opened the space ring and was shocked to find a hundred magic stones lying inside.

This reward is too generous!
However, the temptation of the magic stone was too great, and the traveler was reluctant to give it up. After hesitating for a while, he finally accepted it.

"Thanks." He said seriously.

Su Nan waved his hand, indicating that you’re welcome.

To be honest, in addition to the clues about the Black Forest, the information about the distribution of those forces that the traveler gave him was definitely worth hundreds of magic stones.

Besides, doing so can also leave travelers with the impression that you are generous.

If there is any other information in the future, I believe the traveler will be happy to trade with him.

The next day after exchanging information, the traveler said goodbye and left.

Su Nan did not try to keep him, and after he left, she went back to her busy work.

In addition to daily practice, most of my energy is spent on two tasks.

One is to increase the blood concentration of the hidden dragon.

Another one is to repair the element pool.

The cost of repairing the element pool is not high, and the materials consumed are only about ten thousand gold coins. The key is still the technical issue.

Without the mental power of a formal wizard, the difficulty of repairing many places suddenly increased dramatically.

A large number of precise runes need to be drawn, and if one fails, one has to start all over again. Sunan often has to fail dozens or even hundreds of times before he succeeds. It feels like he is dreaming back to the first time he tried to make a potion.

It took more than three months for Sunan to finally complete the repair of the element pool.

Dragon Forest, the top floor of the Dragon Skeleton Tower.

Looking at the well-repaired square pool in front of him, Sunan let out a long sigh and revealed a happy smile from the bottom of his heart.

The completion of the restoration of the elemental pool has brought enormous significance.

This marks that the development of his forces is about to enter a new stage.

"All that's left is activation."

Su Nan took out the gems that had been prepared long ago from the space ring, simply carved them into octagonal diamonds, and then embedded them all into the magic circle, as if they were one and the same.

hum!
The entire elemental pool suddenly vibrated violently, and cracks suddenly appeared in the surrounding space.

The scenery behind these gaps is varied and varied, including the abyssal sea, the endless sky, the sea of ​​fire that burns the sky and boils the earth, the thick and solid crust, and so on.

They are actually elemental planes!

After a strange blend of energies, strands of deep blue water flowed into the elemental pool.

This is not real water, but elemental energy condensed into liquid. It will appear on the surface of water in the elemental pool.

One of the most gentle forms of energy expression!
With the successful establishment of the elemental pool, an abundant and active energy also enveloped the entire Dragon Skeleton Tower.

"Success!"

Sunan took a deep breath, feeling the elemental energy in the air, his expression quite pleased.

The elemental pool will continue to radiate energy outward.

Within the range of this energy, the wizard's (apprentice's) mental recovery speed will be significantly accelerated, the meditation efficiency will be slightly improved, and it can even delay aging to a certain extent and increase a person's lifespan.

In other words, people who live in the Dragon Skeleton Tower for a long time can gain buffs such as longevity, rapid recovery, and improved meditation efficiency.

And the larger the element pool, the better the effect.

Sunan estimated that the micro-element pool should be able to increase the speed of mental power recovery by 5% and improve meditation efficiency by about %.

If you live there for a long time, you can increase your life expectancy by 5 to 10 years.

Looking at the slowly increasing water level in the element pool, Sunan felt more and more cheerful.

The element pool uses the most primitive element channel mechanism, which generates magic power through the surge of elements and flows back into the element pool. The operation efficiency is not high, but fortunately there is no need to worry about depletion. As long as the element pool is not damaged and is maintained regularly, it can be used for thousands of years.

With the energy provided by the element pool, the ecological environment in the Dragon Forest can be gradually restored, and there is no need to worry about energy shortages.

The only pity is that the energy provided by the elemental pool is stable but poor, not enough to do too many things.

After calming himself down, Sunan opened the three-dimensional model of Long Lin.

Long Lin's space barrier has now been repaired, with only the Dragon Skeleton Tower and Area 2 left to be repaired.

The parts of the Dragon Skeleton Tower that need to be repaired are mainly the culture tanks and various experimental facilities in the transformation area, the magic crystal forging furnace in the workshop area, the targets in the training area, and the overall magic transmission pipeline, etc.

Years of abandonment have caused these facilities to have various problems to varying degrees, and they need to be repaired one by one.

Fortunately, the Dragon Skeleton Tower has a complete self-repair function, and with the assistance of Butler No. 1, as long as there is enough energy, it does not take too much time to repair.

"No. 1, start repairing the Dragon Skeleton Tower." Sunan gave the order.

"Begin repairing the Dragon Skeleton Tower. Estimated time is 18 days, 15 hours, 25 minutes, and 16 seconds."

Sunan nodded secretly.

Once the repairs to the Dragon Skeleton Tower are completed, we can start moving the base.

As for area 2, it won’t be too late to repair it slowly once the energy is fully restored.

Anyway, it will take some time to find a dragon to breed.

Without the dragon clan, Area 2 can only be used as a super-large magic plant garden even if it is restored.
