Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 60

“Hurry up, we must transport everything to the destination before nightfall.”

A transport convoy slowly rolled through the cobblestone roads of Shining Light City, the grinding sound of wheels forming a continuous chorus.

Residents along the way automatically stepped aside, for a troop of fully armed soldiers followed the convoy. The leading men wore full armor, making it clear they were knights.

“Shining Light City is indeed better. Blackstone City is ultimately too remote.”

Looking at the scenery along the streets, Jordan grinned and sighed.

Shining Light City’s architectural style leaned towards Roman, giving it a majestic and dignified feeling.

The roads were paved with smooth cobblestones. Flowers and trees were planted on both sides, the ground was clean and tidy, and there were complete sewer systems. Even the houses were more exquisite and well-ordered than those in Blackstone City.

Compared to Shining Light City, Blackstone City immediately felt like a rural area.

“When we followed Lord Kei to Blackstone City, who could have imagined that we would return to Shining Light Territory so quickly?” A knight sighed.

“Who says otherwise, I thought I would stay in Blackstone City forever.”

“Yeah, I still doubt if I am dreaming.”

“All this is thanks to Lord Baron and Lord Sunan, but speaking of which, why did Lord Sunan move to the outskirts of the city, could it be…?”

The knight’s words were cut off by Jordan’s kick.

“What are you rambling about, watch your mouth!”

“Lord Baron and his brother have a good relationship, besides, Lord Sunan obviously has no interest in the title, he will be a Wizard in the future!”

“Then why didn’t Lord Sunan stay in the city? The outskirts are so desolate, how could living there be as comfortable as the inner castle?” A knight questioned.

Jordan shrugged and said, “I heard that Lord Sunan wants to build a base outside the city, he said he wants to build a magical plant garden and a puppet factory, which requires a large amount of land, so he chose the outskirts. The materials we are transporting this time are for building the base.”

Seeing the confused faces, Jordan impatiently waved his hand.

“Anyway, we just need to do what Lord Sunan says.”

Everyone agreed.

Lord Sunan’s plans, a powerful being like him, how could they casually speculate? They just need to follow through.

The convoy passed through the city and went north for four or five kilometers after exiting the city gate before finally seeing a piece of land that had been leveled.

Many workers were busy working tirelessly, the crisp sound of iron picks hitting rocks was endless.

Jordan quickly found Sunan, who was surveying the hillside, seemingly searching for something.

“Lord Sunan, Lord Baron has asked me to deliver things.”

Sunan nodded, called a steward, and asked him to receive the goods. Then he took out a list and handed it to Jordan.

“This is what we’ll need next, please deliver it to my brother.”

“Yes, my Lord.”

Jordan solemnly replied, secretly glancing at the list.

Crystals, brass, silver, clay… The first few were understandable, but what was the clay for?

Making ceramics?

Jordan secretly wondered, but he was smart enough not to ask. He took the list and left Sunan.

After he left, Sunan continued to explore the surrounding area.

After taking over Shining Light City, he followed his plan and started his farming project. He immediately found Kei, and marked out a piece of land on the plain not far from the city, preparing to build his own base. ?

A qualified Wizard must have his own territory to practice and study knowledge in peace, and to develop himself.

So many Wizards build their own Wizard Towers.

A few powerful True Spirit Wizards even spend vast amounts of resources building floating cities.

Unfortunately, neither floating cities nor Wizard Towers were something Sunan could afford right now.

He could only settle for a regular base.

A complete base must include a meditation area, spell training area, experimental area, living area, potion making area, magical plant garden, magical item workshop, puppet factory, warehouse, and other facilities.

Building so many facilities, the base’s area would even be bigger than a regular village.

The cost in gold was also in the tens of thousands.

Luckily, Sunan had made a batch of potions in his spare time and sold them to the Fire Fox Trading Company.

The deposit he received could be used for the initial construction of the base.

What he was exploring now was the location of the earth vein node.

Every world’s underground has its own original magic vein network.

These networks are called earth vein nodes, or element branches, magic nodes, and so on.

The name is just a code.

Essentially, earth vein nodes are where the energy of nature intersects. As long as a large-scale magic array is set up at the earth vein node to provide a magic supply channel, it can provide stable magic transmission, which can greatly save energy.

Otherwise, relying solely on magic stones to support facilities like magical plant gardens, magic item workshops, and puppet factories would not be enough even if the entire income of Shining Light Territory was invested.

The only problem was that the Starlight Continent was now poor in elements, and the earth vein nodes could only provide a significantly reduced amount of elemental magic.

Relying only on the earth vein nodes, it could probably only support the daily operation and maintenance of the base, if he wanted to use magic energy crystal forging furnaces and other equipment, he had to use magic stones as supplementary energy.

In view of this, a batch of magic stones must be stockpiled before the completion of the base.

After determining the location of the earth vein node, Sunan took a deep breath and turned to look at the busy crowd below.

“Building the base entirely by manpower is still a bit inefficient. It’s better to make a batch of clay golems to act as manpower.”

Clay golems have a strength close to a ton and are highly efficient labor.

In many large projects, one clay golem can handle the work equivalent to hundreds of humans.

The key point is that clay golems do not need to rest or eat, as long as there is enough energy supply and regular maintenance, they can be used indefinitely.

Therefore, many Wizards like to use clay golems as laborers or servants.

“Clay golems require simple materials, consume little energy, and are easy to maintain, making them the best choice for labor.”

“With ten clay golems, the construction efficiency of the base can increase several times, and it can also save a lot of labor costs.”

“In addition, places like the magical plant garden and the magic item workshop also require special personnel to maintain, besides literacy, they also need to master some basic magical plant knowledge or enchanting knowledge, which need to be cultivated from scratch.”

Cultivation, learning spells, building bases, making potions, forging golems, training personnel…

Suddenly, Sunan realized that he had a lot to do.

“I have a lot to do next.”
