As someone who had experienced it, Liz knew that the most critical and difficult part of breaking through from the first level of crystallization to the second level of wizard was to replenish mental power.
Talent crystallization models can be provided by wizard organizations.
When constructing a talent crystal model, you can take construction potions to speed up the process.
Even if it is a high-level talent crystal model, as long as there are enough construction potions, it can be successfully constructed in one or two years at most.
The only step of replenishing spiritual power takes a long time and is a completely tedious process.
Indeed, there are many items similar to spirit beads that can speed up the recovery of mental power.
But these resources are without exception extremely precious and difficult to obtain.
Even if you can get a little, it is just a drop in the bucket and cannot significantly shorten the time spent on replenishing mental power.
Sunan searched the entire Tower of Stars and only obtained more than ten spirit beads, and even after using them all, he only filled less than 30% of his mental power.
That's why he came to Liz, maybe she had some solution.
But disappointingly, Liz thought for a long time and shook her head.
"I'm sorry, given the current situation in Starlight Continent, I can't think of any feasible methods."
".Too."
Sunan sighed secretly.
In this case, we can only find ways to continue strengthening the element pool.
If a large-scale elemental pool could be synthesized, the speed of mental power recovery should be much faster.
With a plan in mind, Su Nan stopped dwelling on the matter and looked towards the desk. When he saw the words written on the paper clearly, his expression changed slightly.
"Increase the production of secondary magic stones?"
Liz did not hide it and said, "The current secondary magic stone production of the Star Alliance is not enough to support the rapid popularization of secondary magic technology. If we can find a way to improve this problem, it will be of great benefit to the development of the Starlight Continent."
Su Nan nodded in understanding and asked, "What good ideas do you have?"
"Yes, there are, but the conditions in Starlight Continent are too harsh, and many measures cannot be implemented at all."
"Tell me about it." Su Nan became interested.
"For example, artificially cultivating secondary magic stone veins."
Liz's cool and pleasant voice echoed softly in the study.
"Magic stone veins are formed by elemental energy after a long period of precipitation, natural purification and crystallization. The process is long and complicated, and the formation conditions are harsh. Therefore, it is difficult to create artificially. Even the demiplanes built by True Spirit Wizards often cannot form magic stone veins."
"But the secondary magic stone veins are different. The conditions for their formation are relatively much simpler and can be formed entirely through human intervention."
"In fact, this technology had already been invented in my time. However, there were many magic stone mines at that time, and wizards did not have much demand for secondary magic stones. Therefore, there were very few wizard forces that were interested in this technology, and the Falling Star Society happened to be one of them."
Sunan's eyes lit up.
Indeed, in the heyday of wizards, there is little point in artificially cultivating secondary magic stone veins.
If the demand is not high, you can just manufacture it directly. No one will spend so much effort to cultivate secondary magic stone veins.
But now it’s different. The importance of secondary magic stone veins to the Starlight Continent is self-evident.
If there are enough secondary magic stone veins, not only can the secondary magic technology be quickly popularized and promoted, but it can also free up part of the productivity of Starlight Academy and use the productivity of manufacturing secondary magic stones to increase the output of other materials.
Kill two birds with one stone! "What conditions are needed to artificially cultivate secondary magic stone veins?"
"There are two main ones, the earth vein nodes and the magic stone essence mother."
Liz stretched out her hand and a roll of parchment on the bookshelf floated up out of thin air, fell on the table, and automatically unfolded to both sides.
But it is a map of the Starlight Continent.
There are thirty or forty places marked with red lines.
"I have set up a task for Starlight Academy to find earth vein nodes. These thirty-six locations are the earth vein nodes that have been discovered in recent years. The energy richness is no less than that of the No. 1 base in Flash City. They can be used to cultivate secondary magic stone veins."
"However, the problem of the earth vein nodes is easy to solve, but the problem of the magic stone essence mother is not."
"Magic Stone Essence Mother is a byproduct of Magic Stone. Usually, only a small amount of Magic Stone Essence Mother will appear in a large Magic Stone mine. This thing is priceless and is one of the necessary materials for making an elemental furnace."
"It is definitely impossible to find the Magic Stone Essence Mother in the Starlight Continent now."
Liz sighed.
There is no large magic stone mine in the Starlight Continent now, let alone a small one.
A skilled cook cannot cook without rice. Without the magic stone essence mother, no matter how perfect the technology is or how rich the energy of the earth vein nodes is, it is impossible to cultivate secondary magic stone veins.
But when she looked up at Su Nan, she was surprised to find that the latter not only did not look disappointed at all, but instead looked thoughtful.
"The name of Magic Stone Essence Mother sounds like a crystal of the highly condensed essence of Magic Stone?" Sunan suddenly asked a question without any context.
Liz was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "That's a reasonable explanation."
A meaningful smile appeared on Sunan's face.
"I see. Let's put this matter aside for now while I think of a solution."
Liz glanced at Sunan suspiciously, completely confused.
How else can this be solved?
Unless you can conjure up a few pieces of magic stone essence out of thin air, the secondary magic stone mine project cannot be launched at all.
Su Nan didn't intend to explain further, and changed the subject: "Is work going well recently?"
"Not bad." Liz nodded calmly.
When they first took over the affairs of the Star Alliance, Carolina and Red Widow did a lot of tricks in secret.
But she didn't care.
No matter how many tricks Carolina and Red Widow play, they dare not blatantly harm the interests of the Covenant.
It's not that they have a sense of the overall situation, but the soul contract restricts them from doing so.
Therefore, she does not need to scheme against the two of them. She only needs to concentrate on managing the Star Alliance and implement each development plan smoothly. As the Star Alliance grows stronger, she will gain power little by little and gradually surpass the two women.
This is an open conspiracy.
By now, Carolina and Red Widow had been completely suppressed by her.
Perhaps they have accepted their fate, and the two women have been making fewer small moves recently.
Seeing that Li Ze looked normal, Sunan didn't think much about it and said with a smile: "If you are too busy, you can find a few assistants."
"assistant?"
"Aren't there people from the Russell family in Starlight Academy?"
Liz was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, I don't want the Russell family to know that I'm still alive."
She didn't leave any descendants back then. After thousands of years of inheritance, the blood relationship between her and the Russell family has become extremely weak, and she has long lost any feelings for the Russell family.
Furthermore, although Sunan trusted her and gave her power, he obviously would not allow her to form a clique in the Star Alliance.
She certainly didn't have this idea, but once the Russell family knew that she was still alive and took over the entire Star Alliance in place of Sunan, would they be able to resist using this relationship for their own benefit? By then, even if she didn't want to, the Russell family would surround her and use her influence to form a faction within the alliance.
Even though Su Nan is usually easy to talk to, he will definitely not show mercy once a situation like this arises.
Perhaps in the future, when the Star Alliance becomes a behemoth, factions will inevitably appear within it, but any rational controller will not allow this situation to occur in the early stages of the development of a force.
This is the main reason why Liz doesn't want to get involved with the Russell family.
"You can also choose others." Sunan said, "There are quite a few good third-level wizard apprentices in the academy."
Following Sherman and Corey, more students from Starlight Academy broke through and became third-level wizard apprentices.
For example, Artil and Ethan.
There are now a total of twenty-three third-level wizard apprentices in the academy.
As for the second-level wizard apprentices, there are thousands of them.
Liz seemed a little moved. After thinking for a while, she said, "I'll think about it carefully."
The Star Alliance has more and more affairs recently. If she can find a suitable candidate, she really wants an assistant to help share the burden. She can't rely on those two aliens, right? Seeing this, Su Nan didn't force it. He chatted for a few more words and left the study.
He will then verify his idea.
After returning to the laboratory, Sunan immediately transferred a batch of graded magic stones from the warehouse and began to synthesize them.
"Since the Magic Stone Essence Mother is the crystallization of the essence of Magic Stone, then in theory it should also be possible to synthesize it using Magic Stone."
"Just like elemental crystal dust and elemental crystal core."
Before long, a large pile of high-level magic stones appeared on the workbench in front of him.
Sunan then continued the synthesis.
As magic stones are placed into the Rubik's Cube one by one, the number of energy units of the magic stones on the synthesis interface continues to increase.
When the 203rd magic stone was put in, the word "magic stone" on the synthesis interface suddenly flashed and turned into "lower-level magic crystal".
"Isn't it the magic stone mother?"
Su Nan frowned slightly, thought about it and continued to put in the magic stone.
As the number of magic stones put in increases, the lower-level magic crystals quickly turn into intermediate-level magic crystals, and then into higher-level magic crystals.
During this period, the number of high-level magic stones ran out, and Sunan had to synthesize a new batch and continue to put them into the Rubik's Cube.
An unknown amount of time had passed. When Sunan thought that his guess was wrong and that the magic stone could not be synthesized into the magic stone essence mother, the synthesis interface suddenly changed, and the words he expected finally appeared.
[Magic Stone Essence Mother, purity 8.29%, a crystal containing a huge amount of energy, can be used to manufacture the core of the energy supply device. 】
“Finally succeeded!”
Su Nan let out a long sigh, a look of joy on his face.
He almost thought his guess was wrong.
Fortunately, the magic stone essence mother was finally synthesized.
In this way, it becomes possible to cultivate secondary magic stone veins.
"I wonder if the 8.29% purity magic stone essence mother is enough."
It goes without saying that the higher the purity of the magic stone essence used to cultivate secondary magic stone veins, the better.
Without saying a word, Sunan transferred a large amount of secondary magic stones from the warehouse and began the tedious synthesis.
He stopped the synthesis only after adding hundreds of high-grade magic stones and the purity of the magic stone essence only increased by 0.01%.
At this time, the purity of the magic stone essence has reached 25.37%.
The price was more than 2.8 million secondary magic stones! He had basically used up all the secondary magic stones stored in the entire Star Alliance.
"The cost of a secondary magic stone is twelve silver coins. More than two million eight hundred thousand of them is more than three hundred thousand gold coins."
“The cost is OK.”
The cost of a secret doll is more than 400,000 gold coins. More than 300,000 gold coins in exchange for a magic stone essence mother, this deal is very cost-effective, at least in Sunan's opinion.
However, soon, Liz came to the door.
"Sunan, why did you take away so many multi-level magic stones?"
Liz's face was full of confusion.
Just now, she found out that all the secondary magic stones in dozens of warehouses of the Star Alliance had been transferred away by Sunan.
More than half of them were energies that had just been stored and were ready to be allocated to various cities in the Star Empire for trading.
As a result, the magic energy machines throughout the Starry Empire will face the problem of energy shortage for some time to come.
Of course, Liz wasn't blaming Sunan.
The Star Alliance is Sunan's property, and it is his right to do whatever he wants with it.
Liz didn't care at all about the complaints from just a group of merchants and nobles.
She was just curious as to why Sunan suddenly needed to use so many multi-level magic stones. "You came at the right time. I have something to show you."
Sunan smiled slightly, opened his palm, and showed the thing in his hand to Liz.
When she saw clearly what it was, Liz's eyes widened immediately, and an expression of astonishment and disbelief appeared on her usually cold face.
"Magic Stone Mother!"
"How did you get this thing?"
Li Ze looked at Sunan in shock.
She had just finished talking with Sunan about the secondary magic stone ore vein not long ago, and Sunan took out the magic stone essence mother. This was too unbelievable!
Thinking of what Sunan had asked before and the fact that a large number of secondary magic stones had been transferred away, Liz couldn't help but have an astonishing thought in her mind - could this magic stone essence mother be made by Sunan himself? No, it's impossible! Magic stone essence mother cannot be made artificially! So far, no one has heard of anyone who can make magic stone essence mother!
etc!
Liz suddenly woke up. She had always wondered where the Star Alliance's magic stones came from. At first, she thought that the Star Alliance controlled a magic stone vein, but after taking over the Star Alliance, she found that there was no magic stone vein at all.
The original source of all the magic stones is Sunan's wizard tower! Now that I think about it, could these magic stones also be made by Sunan?
The technology to artificially create magic stone and magic stone essence mother? Sunan actually mastered this unprecedented technology! The more Li Ze thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was very likely, and she was shocked for a moment. If this is true, it would be amazing! Let alone magic stone, magic stone essence mother is the key material of many energy supply devices.
With the technology to manufacture Magic Stone Essence Mother, the Star Alliance can make a fortune just by selling Magic Stone Essence Mother - provided that the plane barrier is restored.
In comparison, a mere two million secondary magic stones are nothing.
Li Ze stared at Su Nan with an extremely complicated look.
How many secrets does Sunan have?
Without directly answering Liz's question, Sunan signaled her to focus her attention on the magic stone spirit mother.
"Is this magic stone mother enough?"
Liz calmed herself down, used the magician's hand to move the magic stone spirit mother in front of her, and observed it intently for a while, with surprise flashing in her eyes.
"This piece of magic stone essence is of very high purity. It is more than enough to cultivate large secondary magic stone veins, and it can also shorten the time a lot."
"How long will it take?"
Liz thought for a moment and said, "About three to four hundred years."
Su Nan frowned slightly, but then he thought that the formation time of normal magic stone veins is measured in millions of years. In comparison, it is already very good that a secondary magic stone vein only needs four hundred years at most.
That is to say, secondary magic stones require less energy and human intervention, otherwise the time required to form a vein is also a huge number.
"How long does it take for a small secondary magic stone vein to take shape?"
"About 150 to 200 years."
"In this way, by cultivating several secondary magic stone veins of different sizes at the same time, a progressive difference in time will be formed. After two hundred years at most, the problem of insufficient secondary magic stone production can be greatly improved."
Liz thought about it and felt that this was the best solution.
Anyway, there are many earth vein nodes on the Starlight Continent. As long as there are enough magic stone essence mothers, it is not a problem to cultivate twenty or thirty secondary magic stone veins.
In just a few words, Sunan and Lizé finalized the general arrangements and named it the Mineral Vein Cultivation Plan.
This is the second huge project of the Star Alliance in the next few hundred years, following the Transmission Network Project. (End of this chapter)
