Synthetic Wizard - Chapter 48: Magic Coin and Protection Ring

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Magic Coin and Protection Ring
The spending might be hefty, but to enhance his power, Sunan spared no expense.
After ingesting the synthesized superpower potion, his meditation efficiency skyrocketed to an incredible level.
After a single four-hour meditation session, the proficiency of the Star Ring Meditation Method surged by 514 points, and his spiritual power increased by 0.06.
The efficiency was more than six times what it was back in Black Stone City.
“Sure enough, the superpower potion and Divine Blood Amber complement each other well.”
Sunan was filled with joy.
Besides meditation, the effects of the superpower potion also significantly boosted his spell learning progress.
In just one day, the learning progress of [Magic Missile] exceeded 5%.
This meant that in no more than twenty days, he could master a new Tier One magic.
“Indeed, high-level resources are the key to rapidly enhancing one’s power.”
Sunan let out a breath of satisfaction, deciding to stay at Viscount Silver Moon’s mansion for a while, thoroughly preparing before entering Kubero Manor to confront the evil spirit.
In the following days, Sunan settled down at the mansion.
Every day, besides meditating and learning spells, he would repair magic items, occasionally tease Amy, and pet the cat.
As for Hidden Dragon, he had been released from Stone Bell City and was hunting for food in the nearby mountains and forests on his own.
Under the dual enhancement of the superpower potion and Divine Blood Amber, the proficiency of the Star Ring Meditation Method soared like a rocket.
On the thirteenth day at the mansion.
The Star Ring Meditation Method smoothly reached level 5.
Sunan also successfully constructed the fourth star ring.
[Sunan Yanest, Human Male, 17 years old]
[Spirit 17.34/Physique 13.77]
[Skills]
Star Ring Meditation Method Lv5 (35/30000)
Potion-making Lv3 (727/6000)
Biological Transformation Lv2 (319/3000)
Puppet Refining Lv2 (1701/3000)
“Thirty thousand proficiency, it won’t take even two months to max it out.”
Just thinking about soon constructing the fifth star ring put Sunan in a very cheerful mood.
On the twentieth day at the mansion.
Sunan successfully mastered [Magic Missile].
This was also the first attacking Tier One spell he mastered.
The effect of [Magic Missile] is launching a missile from the palm formed by highly condensed energy particles, with the number and power of the missiles depending on the caster’s spiritual power and spell proficiency.
The fact that it appeared on the panel meant the casting proficiency had definitely reached a fully mastered level.
With Sunan’s nearly 18 points of spiritual power, he could simultaneously release up to 3 magic missiles.
He tested it and found that a single magic missile could penetrate a two-centimeter-thick Black Stone Iron plate.
Even a grand knight in heavy armor would definitely suffer from a hit by a magic missile.
“When my spiritual power increases in the future, I’ll be able to simultaneously release dozens of magic missiles, forming a barrage attack—that will be truly terrifying!”
Amy’s master left behind a total of eight books on magic models.
Besides [Magic Missile], there were [Burning Hands], [Magic Alert], [Weakening Beam], [Tongues], [Magic Disguise], [Seven-Color Spirit Light], and [Feather Fall Skill].
Among them, the ones categorized as combat spells were only [Burning Hands], [Weakening Beam], and [Seven-Color Spirit Light].
After some thought, Sunan decided to learn [Weakening Beam] as his second spell.
Rune gemstones, although powerful, consumed more than ten gold coins per use.
A single battle often consumed gemstones worth fifty to sixty gold coins.
Too costly!
Sunan decided that in the future, he would rely on spell and energy particle manipulation for combat as much as possible.
Only when facing tricky enemies would he resort to using rune gemstones.
Otherwise, no amount of gold could withstand such consumption.
“Unfortunately, mastering metamagic techniques requires enough spiritual power. Only after advancing to a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice can I start training in them. Otherwise, mastering silent spellcasting and instant spellcasting would make casting spells in combat much more convenient.”
On the twenty-fifth day at the mansion.
Sunan finally completed the repair of two magic items.
Upon placing the repaired magic items into the magic cube, the corresponding information quickly surfaced.
[Protection Ring (Alchemy/Sub-Magic Item), upon activation, forms an invisible protective field on the body surface, usable 3/3 times, can be restored through spiritual power infusion or automatic absorption of free energy particles.]
[Magic Coin (Alchemy/Sub-Magic Item), upon activation, randomly summons a creature from another world that obeys the user’s command, disappearing after serving for half an hour or upon death.]
The Protection Ring looked just like an ordinary copper ring, quite inconspicuous.
This very much aligned with the wizard’s practical nature.
They often preferred to make magic items less conspicuous so that in battle, the enemy wouldn’t focus too much on the magic item, catching their opponents off guard.
Sunan tested it and found that the protective field formed by the Protection Ring offered decent defense, comparable to the Shield Skill.
However, unlike the Shield Skill, which could only defend one direction, the Protection Ring could offer 360-degree protection against attacks from all directions.
Counting the Protection Ring, Sunan already had two ring-type sub-magic items in his possession.
The other, the Magic Coin, was a relatively rare summoning-type magic item, similar in effect to the level one Monster Summoning Skill.
However, what’s better about the Magic Coin is that the summoned otherworldly creature’s strength ranges between a Junior Grand Knight and a Peak Grand Knight.
The effect is much stronger than that of a level one Monster Summoning Skill.
In Sunan’s view, the Magic Coin was already very close to being a Micro-Light Level magic item.
And during the process of repairing these two magic items, Sunan’s [Magic Item Crafting] learning progress also reached 100%, successfully mastering the skill.
“It’s just right that I previously acquired a copy of ’Compendium of Low-Level Magic Items.’ Once back in Black Stone City, I can start attempting to craft magic items.”
A powerful wizard must possess numerous magic items.
After all, no matter how talented a wizard is, it’s impossible to be without weaknesses.
The weaker aspects of one’s combat system must be supplemented with magic items.
“Preparations are complete. Next is to deal with the evil spirit.”
With the Magic Coin and Protection Ring, Sunan was more confident about his upcoming actions.
When Viscount Silver Moon received the butler’s report that Lord Anger said he could act, he breathed a vast sigh of relief.
Although the other party had previously informed him that, to ensure the absolute elimination of the evil spirit, some preparation time was needed, seeing over twenty days had passed and Anger hadn’t shown any signs of action, he started growing increasingly anxious.
With each passing day, the evil spirit at Kubero Manor grew stronger.
If delayed too long, it might develop to an irreparable point.
Fortunately, this wizard was finally ready to act!
Viscount Silver Moon immediately decided, “Gather the men; to Kubero Manor!”
