Synthesis Wizard.

"After being promoted to a Level 2 wizard, the restrictions of the Starlight Continent environment will become more obvious, right?"

After calming herself down, Liz started talking about another topic.

"Indeed." Su Nanwei sighed.

After being promoted to a second-level wizard, Sunan discovered that the impact of energy shortage on spiritual concentration was more serious than he had imagined.

Originally, I thought that I could at least break through to the second level of crystallization before the plane barrier was completely repaired.

But now it seems that unless the number of wizards in the Star Alliance increases dramatically in the future and there are more people who can collect elemental crystal dust, it will be difficult.

In addition, there is the issue of environmental adaptability.

Even though he was now in the wizard tower, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Obviously, as the essence of life evolves, his soul and body have higher requirements for energy particle concentration.

If he continues to improve like this and becomes a True Spirit Wizard, he will probably not be able to adapt even if the energy particle concentration of the Starlight Continent returns to normal.

Perhaps this is why true spirit wizards are so keen on building floating cities and demiplanes.

They need an environment with a higher concentration of energy particles!

After chatting for a while, Sunan got down to business.

"Do you have any knowledge of the craft of alchemical body?"

"You want to engrave the alchemical seal?"

Liz looked at Sunan in surprise, then nodded in understanding.

"You are now a second-level wizard. Your mental strength must meet the standards of an alchemical body. Strengthening your physique is not difficult for you. You can try to transform into an alchemical body."

"But the problem is that most of the materials needed to transform the alchemical body are very precious, and I'm afraid they can't be found in full on the Starlight Continent right now."

Su Nan waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, just give me the process knowledge and I will take care of the materials myself."

If the Transformed Alchemical Body can also be synthesized using the Rubik's Cube, then materials will not be a problem.

At worst, just like engraving gems and talent crystal models, first make a low-level copycat version with weaker effects, and then synthesize a high-level version with the same effect as the original.

If it cannot be synthesized, then we can only research substitutes.

Seeing Sunan say this, Lizhe stopped trying to persuade her.

Past experience taught her not to question anything Su Nan said.

Problems that seem difficult to solve in one's own eyes can often be easily solved in Su Nan's hands.

If you raise questions at this time, you will most likely be slapped in the face later.

"There is a lot of knowledge on the alchemical body and alchemical engraving process. I will give it to you after I copy it down."

At this point, Liz suddenly remembered something.

"I almost forgot to tell you, there's news from the royal family. When you're out of confinement, I hope you can go to the palace to meet His Majesty Key."

Su Nan was startled when he heard this and frowned.

If Key wanted to see him, he could just come over directly or send a message. Why did he have to send a message in the name of the royal family?

He looked at Liz, who understood what he meant and said solemnly, "Two months ago, His Majesty Key fell seriously ill and is still bedridden."

Time is the most ruthless and terrifying weapon.

Even a powerful wizard like the True Spirit Wizard cannot resist the passage of time and will eventually face the end of his life.

What's more, he is just a little blood knight.

As a blood knight with the blood of a sub-dragon, Key also inherited some of the dragon's characteristics of long life.

In addition, as the lord of the empire, he has taken countless treasures to prolong his life, including such precious resources as the Dawn Potion.

As a result, his life span is longer than many third-level wizard apprentices.

But even so, after entering the age of 200, the emperor's health inevitably went downhill.

In the following years, Key's health deteriorated and he was plagued by illness.

Two months ago, he suddenly fell seriously ill and has been bedridden ever since.

As a result, the entire Starry Empire was in a state of panic.

Fortunately, there is the Star Alliance to put pressure on us, and the First Prince Abbott, who has been designated as the heir by His Majesty the Emperor, has taken over the heavy responsibility of regulating the country, so there is no need to worry about some unspeakable things happening.

When they learned that Sunan had entered the palace, all the royal family members who felt they were important, including Prince Abbott and Hailin, gathered in the emperor's bedroom and waited.

Except for a few core members of the royal family such as Prince Abbott who stayed in the palace, the rest of the people waited in the courtyard.

However, just as these people were eagerly waiting, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to meet and get acquainted with the big man who controlled the highest power in the Starlight Continent behind the scenes and was more honorable than the Emperor, the person in question had already appeared silently in the palace.

As a second-level wizard apprentice, Hailin noticed the abnormality at the first time. He turned his head and found that there was a figure beside him.

He was startled at first and was about to take action subconsciously, but he soon saw the other person's face clearly, stopped his action quickly, and bowed respectfully.

"Great uncle!"

When the others heard the voice, they turned around and saw that it was Su Nan. They were all surprised and hurried forward to salute.

Su Nan waved his hand calmly to stop the noise, took a step forward, and in a flash he was in front of the bed.

On the large and luxurious bed, Key lay quietly with his eyes closed, not moving a muscle, and a look of illness visibly visible to the naked eye.

Compared to the last time we met, Key looked older and more haggard.

In fact, Sunan and Keyi have met less and less frequently over the years.

Both sides were rulers preoccupied with affairs.

Especially in the past twenty years, Sunan was busy trying to become a second-level wizard, and he and Key only met once every few years.

Looking at Keyi, who was lying on the bed with white hair, wrinkles all over his face and an old look, Sunan couldn't help but look a little dazed.

The scene where the two brothers worked together to lead Blackrock City to fight against Baron Owen seemed to have happened just yesterday.

Time really flies by.

Everyone around him stood there in silence, afraid that any noise he made might disturb Su Nan.

Just looking at Su Nan, who looked the same for decades and still as young as a young man in his twenties, and then looking at the emperor who looked old and frail on the bed, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity.

It’s hard to imagine that these two people are only three years apart!

Is this the power of a wizard?
"cough cough"

A cough suddenly broke the silence in the bedroom.

Kai woke up and opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Su Nan standing beside the bed. His eyes suddenly lit up.

"Sunan, when did you come?"

"I just came here not long ago."

Sunan stepped forward, helped Key to sit up, and at the same time injected the most healing plant energy particles into his body.

As the plant energy particles were injected, Key's complexion suddenly became rosier and he stopped coughing.

But Sunan knew very well that this was only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.

Key was not injured, but was nearing the end of his life. Even though he was a second-level wizard, he could not help a person whose life was about to end to defeat death.

Unless the other party is a wizard (apprentice), there may be a chance. "You go down."

Key glanced at the crowd in the bedroom and waved.

Even though he was at the end of his life, no one dared to disobey the Emperor. Everyone did as he was told and bowed and left.

Soon, the bedroom became deserted, with only Sunan and Keyi left.

"I can feel that my life is coming to an end," Key said with a sigh.

Sunan looked at him steadily without trying to comfort him, because he knew Keyi didn't need it.

Sure enough, Key then grinned and said, "When my father was dying, he asked my brother and I to revive the Aneste family. We did it, and we did it very well. Now the entire Starlight Continent belongs to our family!"

"The Yanest family is now the undisputed first family, and its glory spreads throughout the world."

A look of pride appeared on Keyi's face, and then he looked at Sunan with sharp eyes.

"But I know very well that this is all your credit. If it weren't for you, with my ability, I would have died in Black Stone City long ago, let alone reviving the family."

Sunan said calmly, "I am also a member of the Yanest family."

Key smiled and shook his head, saying, "The long life span of wizards means that the concept of family is very weak. Unless it is a wizard family like the Russell family, after I leave, the relationship between the royal descendants and you will only become more and more distant."

"Of course, I'm not complaining to you. This situation is unavoidable no matter what. Even two brothers from a commoner family are like this, not to mention wizards."

"I just want to ask you for one thing. I hope you can take care of the royal family more in the future and let the royal family have more wizard apprentices."

After unifying the continent, Key's only remaining wish was to train more wizard apprentices in the royal family so that the Anest family could continue to be strong and prosperous.

Su Nan also knew this, and looking at his elder brother's pleading eyes, he nodded solemnly.

"I promise you that the Anest family will always be the imperial family in the future, and will also become a powerful wizard family."

After getting Sunan's promise, a relieved smile appeared on Keyi's wrinkled face.

"This way I won't have any regrets."

"I have lived for two hundred years, which is longer than many wizard apprentices. I have also given birth to a large number of children and grandchildren, and have expanded the Yanest family. There is nothing I am dissatisfied with."

As if he was relieved, fatigue came over him again and Key's eyelids began to feel heavy.

"I'm a little sleepy. I'll take a nap."

"Ah."

Sunan helped Key lie down again and watched him slowly close his eyes.

Under his mental perception, the life breath in Keyi's body was like a burnt-out flame, slowly weakening until it disappeared completely.

After standing quietly in front of the bed for a while, Su Nan turned around and left the bedroom.

In the courtyard, everyone was waiting quietly with different expressions.

There was a slight commotion until Su Nan pushed the door open and walked out, but it soon calmed down.

"Great uncle."

Hailin came forward immediately, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Su Nan glanced at him and shook his head slightly.

Seeing this, everyone's faces turned pale, and they didn't understand what was happening.

When they came to their senses, Su Nan had disappeared.

Everyone could no longer hold back and rushed into the bedroom.

Soon, there were cries and screams coming from inside.

Astral Calendar Year 1422, the Autumn Month (October).

The founding emperor of the Starry Empire, Key Anest, passed away and the whole country was in mourning.

In the month of Frost Descent (November) of the same year, the first snow fell, marking the beginning of the most grand emperor funeral in the history of Starlight Continent.

The solemn and grand funeral ceremony, including the coffin, funeral ceremony, procession and burial, lasted for a full two months.

The funeral was not over until the new year arrived.

Astral Year 1423, Winterqin Month (January).

The eldest prince, Abbott Arnest, ascended the throne and became the second emperor of the Starry Empire.

In the same month, the grandest coronation ceremony in the history of Starlight Continent was also held in the capital, Flash City.

Participants included tens of thousands of nobles and thousands of wizard apprentices.

These are the carefully selected people who are qualified to attend the celebration, otherwise the scale of participants would be even larger.

The celebration was held in the Palace Square.

Sitting in the seat where the wizard apprentices were sitting, Sherman looked at the new emperor who was wearing a crown, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and sitting on a golden throne inlaid with gems. A trace of emotion flashed across his face.

Atil, who was sitting next to him, noticed Sherman's expression and said softly, "What's wrong? You look very emotional?"

“Nothing.” Xie Man shook his head. “I just feel more and more that life is too short. If we fail to break through the last level, our lives will soon come to an end.”

"That would be great if there was a breakthrough," said Corey on the side without even thinking.

As key figures representing Southern Jiangsu to attend the celebration, the three of them were arranged to sit together in the front seats.

After hearing what Corey said, Sherman smiled and said nothing.

He is now constructing a talent crystal model and has reached the stage of filling it with mental power.

But even so, he couldn't guarantee that he could take the final step and become a formal wizard.

Most third-level wizard apprentices can feel something in their hearts during the last period of their lives.

He also felt that he had only a dozen years or so left to live, at most, and no more than twenty years.

If he fails to complete the last step before then, what awaits him is turning into a piece of yellow earth.

Even though he was strong-willed, Sherman still felt anxious sometimes.

In this situation, he envied Corey's steadfastness.

With his mind racing, Xie Man quickly pulled himself together and said with a smile, "After this celebration, I will go back and start my retreat. I will not come out until I break through the last step."

"Me too." Corey's eyes sparkled. "Whether I can break through or not depends on the last period of time."

"Are your contribution points enough to exchange for the right to use the training room for ten or twenty years?"

"More than enough."

Looking at Sherman and Corey talking, a trace of confusion flashed in Atil's eyes.

Sherman and Corey at least still have hope of a breakthrough, but she has no hope at all.

Ever since she became the teacher's disciple, her cultivation progress has always lagged behind Sheman and Corey.

Even now, Sherman and Corey were already busy replenishing their mental energy, while she had just begun to construct the talent crystal model.

Under such circumstances, the chances of becoming a wizard are slim.

Even Lord Xingyun had said that it would be almost impossible for her to become a wizard through normal means.

Atil was unwilling to give up, but he didn't know what path to take in the future. (End of this chapter)
