"Sir, this is the exploration result of the secondary magic stone veins in the past six months."
In the study, Artil used the magician's hand to place the documents on the desk.
Liz hummed, first approving the documents in her hand, and then picking up the exploration documents to look through them carefully.
Artil stood aside and waited quietly.
The magic stone lamp hanging on the wall cast a bright yellow light, illusory and translucent texture on her body.
Artil thought he was lucky.
Although he failed to successfully become a wizard, he survived the ghost transformation, which has a very low success rate, and was able to continue living in this world in the form of a ghost.
And the teacher also promised to reshape her body in the future.
By then, she can still strive to become a wizard again, and there may be hope for promotion.
Atil knew very well that under normal circumstances, the Covenant would not spend such a huge price for a wizard apprentice.
She was able to receive this treatment thanks to her teacher and Lord Xingyun.
For this, she was very grateful to the two of them and worked even harder to repay their kindness.
Not long after, Liz finished reading the document and nodded slightly.
"Yes, the cultivation is progressing smoothly. It looks like we should be able to mine it in a dozen years."
Liz looked up at Atil and said, "Let's start preparing now. Prepare the mining equipment and clay golems in advance. Once the ore vein is formed, start mining immediately."
The preliminary warm-up of the secondary magic technology has been completed, and the effect is exceptionally good.
Whether in the civilian or military fields, sub-magic technology represented by magic energy machines has been extremely popular and has received excellent feedback.
Today, the entire Starlight Continent is like a volcano that is about to erupt. As long as enough secondary magic stones are thrown into it, it will explode immediately, ushering in a surge in the development of secondary magic energy technology.
Within a hundred years, sub-magic technology will surely sweep across the entire Starlight Continent and completely transform productivity.
After that, the development of Starlight Continent will surely reach a higher level.
And the Star Alliance will also have a broader space for development.
Artil wrote down Lise's instructions one by one, and prepared to arrange them immediately after leaving the study.
Mining more than 30 large mineral veins at the same time requires a lot of mining equipment and clay golems, so they must be prepared in advance.
When it comes to the development of sub-magic technology, no details can be ignored.
"There is one more thing." Liz suddenly changed the subject, "The Star Alliance is preparing to form a new puppet army, and it needs a huge amount of materials."
A new puppet army? Artil wondered.
The Star Alliance now has a total of two puppet legions.
One is the regular golem legion of the Covenant, including three large golem legions and four medium golem legions.
And this number is increasing year by year, and it is expected that the fourth large-scale golem army will be formed within ten years.
One is the built-in golem army of the Starlight Wizard Tower.
Its size is only equivalent to that of a small golem army, but its combat power is stronger than that of a large golem army.
This golem army is usually stationed in the wizard tower and is not easily deployed.
To be honest, it is almost impossible for the Star Alliance to encounter a large-scale war now. Two puppet legions are enough. Atil doesn't quite understand why a new puppet legion should be formed.
And when she got the list of the puppet army's organization, she was even more shocked.
Three hundred puppets and fifty secret puppets! This number is too exaggerated!
Artil knew that both the Touch Master Puppet and the Secret Puppet had the combat power to fight against a Level 1 Gasification Wizard! Why did they create so many wizard-level puppets at once? The key was that the cost of forming this lineup of puppets was absolutely astronomical.
Seeing Atil's confusion, Liz had no intention of explaining further.
When Sunan proposed to form this puppet army, she immediately understood his purpose.
This is to prepare for the fight against the Dark Throne! Only to fight against the Dark Throne do so many wizard-level puppets are needed.
"Sir, with so many materials, I'm afraid we can't gather them in a short time." Atil said with a frown.
Not to mention anything else, the material cost of the fifty secret dolls alone is more than 20 million gold coins.
The cost of the Touch Master Puppets is relatively low, but the cost of three hundred of them added up to more than 100 million gold coins.
If it were just this, it wouldn't be a big deal. With the current income of the Star Alliance, even if they only took a quarter of the income each year, it would take more than 20 years to raise enough funds to form a puppet army.
The key is that many of the materials used to refine the Touch Master Puppets and Secret Dolls are rare materials with extremely low production and high demand.
For example, it would take at least 40 to 50 years to collect enough mithril to refine fifty secret dolls.
Liz naturally understood this and waved her hand, saying, "It doesn't matter. This is a long-term plan. As long as it is completed within three hundred years, it will be fine."
Atil heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.
That's no problem, I now have a lot more time.
"Anything else?" Liz asked.
Atil came back to his senses, nodded quickly, and said, "Among the high-level sub-dragon species in Dragon Forest Area 2, a Devil Tyrannosaurus Rex with signs of evolution was recently discovered. How should we deal with it?"
Liz raised her eyebrows, with surprise flashing in her eyes.
She also knew about the Star Alliance's plan to increase the concentration of sub-dragon blood.
To be honest, she was not optimistic about the plan at first.
The power of the dragon race is well-known throughout the multiverse.
Raising giant dragons on a large scale is something that even a third-level wizard wouldn't dare to think about.
The wizard who founded Dragon Forest in the first place was able to build Dragon Forest because he was a descendant of a true spirit and had connections and resources.
It was a bit presumptuous of Sunan to want to recreate Long Lin's former glory as a second-level wizard.
In addition to this, another reason why Liz was not optimistic was the difficulty in increasing the concentration of sub-dragon blood.
It might be possible to increase the blood concentration of a single sub-dragon species and evolve it into a giant dragon if you try hard.
It can increase the blood concentration of an entire sub-dragon race, and the difficulty will increase by more than ten times.
Otherwise, if it could be done easily, those large wizarding forces would have trained a group of giant dragons long ago.
The giant dragon tribe in Longlin at that time were also captured from outside and reproduced there, not bred by themselves.
However, Liz's idea was quickly shattered.
She was then shocked to find that the blood concentration of the sub-dragon race in Area 2 was increasing at an incredibly fast rate. After careful investigation, she realized that the Star Alliance actually used dragon blood to increase the blood concentration of the sub-dragon race! This cannot be described as luxury! The key is that there is not a single giant dragon on the Starlight Continent. The remaining dragon blood basically comes from the inheritance of various wizards. It is a legacy left by wizards thousands of years ago. The quantity is extremely small. How did Sunan find so much dragon blood? Liz was puzzled.
However, after learning about this, her opinion on the plan to increase the concentration of sub-dragon blood has also changed.
Perhaps this plan really has a chance of success.
And what Arthur said at this time undoubtedly verified this point.
In just less than four hundred years, individuals on the verge of evolution appeared among the Asian dragon race. In another two or three hundred years, perhaps a group of giant dragons could be bred.
After thinking for a moment, Liz said, "Isolate the Devil Tyrannosaurus from its group temporarily and place it in a secluded place. Transfer 100 standard units of dragon blood from the warehouse to transform and strengthen it to speed up its evolution."
After a pause, she added, "The transformation experiment is in the charge of wizards and is issued in the form of tasks."
"Yes." Atil wrote it down immediately.
Then, as if she had thought of something, she frowned and asked, "Sir, if that Devil Tyrannosaurus evolves into a giant dragon, will it become difficult to control?"
Liz also looked thoughtful after hearing this.
Unlike the sub-dragon race, the pride of the giant dragons is innate and has been ingrained in their bones. They are difficult to tame, and they are unwilling to be tamed.
Once it evolves into a giant dragon, there is indeed a high possibility that the Devil Tyrannosaurus will become resistant to Long Lin's domestication and rebel.
Although the Covenant has enough power to suppress this resistance, doing so is only a temporary solution and does not address the root cause, which is inconsistent with the original purpose of the plan.
What the Star Alliance hopes to do is to cultivate a group of dragons that can obey orders.
Liz does have several methods of controlling strange beasts, but these may not be effective against dragons.
I don't know how the founder of Longlin solved this problem? "Let's put this issue on hold for now." Li Ze thought for a while and said, "I'll discuss it with Sunan when he comes out of seclusion."
"Is the teacher going to make another breakthrough?" Atil looked surprised.
I have the impression that the teacher would only go into seclusion when he was about to make a breakthrough or when he had to do a time-consuming experiment.
"Yeah." Liz's expression also showed some sigh.
Even though she had seen it many times, Su Nan's terrifying speed of strength improvement was still hard for her to understand.
It has only been over two hundred years since he was promoted to the second-level wizard, and he is about to break through again.
You have to know that it took her more than 1,500 years to break through from the second-level gasification to the second-level liquefaction. This is already quite outstanding.
Sunan estimated that it would take at most three hundred years to break through to the second level of liquefaction.
In such a harsh environment in the Starlight Continent, being able to break through so quickly can only be described as a miracle.
Coming out of the study, Atil reunited with the secret doll holding the codex and was teleported directly to the warehouse area.
The container she used to fuse souls was a code, just like Lord Xingyun's.
It was made for her by the teacher himself, and it recorded all the spells from ring zero to ring two, making it convenient for her to use.
Arriving at the warehouse area, Atil began to count the materials used to refine high-level puppets, preparing to go back and put together a plan to hand over to Lord Xingyun.
She couldn't practice in ghost form, so she had plenty of time to do these tasks.
When Atil finished his work and came out of the warehouse area, he ran into Tatiana head-on.
"Jana, what a coincidence."
"It's not a coincidence. I came here specially to see you."
A faint smile appeared on the dark elf girl's face, and her silver eyes were as bright as gems.
Today, Tatjana has already been promoted to a wizard. She is the only alien wizard of non-human race in the Star Alliance.
Thanks to this, her reputation in the Star Alliance is more famous than many wizards.
"This is the Frost Ghost Stone that I found by chance. I remember you said that this thing would be very useful to you, so I thought of giving it to you."
Tatjana handed over a light gray stone the size of an egg.
"Frost Stone!" Atil was surprised.
She had seen this kind of thing in books. It was a stone from the Frost River in the Shadow Realm and was a very precious negative energy material.
More importantly, this is one of the key materials for reshaping the body!
"Jana, where did you find the Frost Stone?" Atir asked with shining eyes.
Seeing Atil's importance, Tatjana didn't keep anyone waiting and said truthfully:
"I found it in a cave near Bank City in the underground world. Later, I asked Teacher Qiangwei for advice and learned that it was Frost Ghost Stone."
Atil thought about it and vaguely remembered that Bank City seemed to be on the edge of the southeast region, not far from the Demon Spider City.
"Thank you for the information, Jana. You helped me a lot."
After coming back to his senses, Artil smiled and gave Tatiana a gentle hug.
"I'm glad I could help you." Tatjana smiled and hugged her friend back.
After the sacrifice incident, the dark elves were basically destroyed, and she also cut off contact with her own people.
Although he was admitted to Starlight Academy, it was difficult for him to truly integrate into the circle of people around him because of his ethnic identity.
In the entire Star Alliance, the only person she could really talk to and call her friend was Artil.
Therefore, she cherishes her friend Arthur very much.
After separating from Tatiana, Artil immediately returned to the study and found Lise to report the matter.
"Frost Ghost Stone?"
After hearing Arthur's report, Lise's expression immediately became serious.
When it comes to reshaping her body, she also takes it very seriously.
After thinking for a moment, Liz quickly made up her mind.
"Send someone to search the area around Bank City, focusing on investigating the cave where the Frost Stone was found. Report any findings to me immediately."
After Atil took the order and left, Liz stared at the Frost Stone on the table with a thoughtful look on her face.
Did it come from a certain wizard's heritage, or did it come from the Shadow Realm? If it was the former, then Tajiana's discovery of the Frost Stone was just an accident.
But if it is the latter, then the meaning is different.
Although the Starlight Continent is still under blockade, the Shadow Realm is not a world with special properties like the Elemental Plane, so it should be impossible to connect to the Starlight Continent.
But it is better to be safe than sorry. What if this bottle of Frost Stone really comes from the Shadow Realm? That means some existence brought it out from the Shadow Realm.
If this is true, it means that other creatures have invaded the Starlight Continent in advance.
This is undoubtedly something that needs to be taken seriously.
"If we are really connected to the Shadow Realm, we may be able to use this opportunity to collect materials in advance."
Liz's eyes flickered slightly.
More than one-third of the materials used to reshape the body are negative energy materials.
As everyone knows, the Shadow Realm has the most negative energy resources, and many negative energy materials can be found in the Shadow Realm.
But whether this is true or not, we will have to wait until we investigate. (End of this chapter)
