Synthetic Wizard - Chapter 74: Synthesizing Micro-Light Level

Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Synthesizing Micro-Light Level
The magic stone lamps emit a warm glow, illuminating the entire workshop as if it were daytime.
After successfully synthesizing the magic stones, Sunan immediately replaced all the lamps in the base with magic stone lamps.
Compared to torches and oil lamps, the light from magic stone lamps is more stable and brighter.
The energy consumption is also low, with one magic stone supporting a magic stone lamp for half a year.
Similarly, the alcohol lamps used for potion-making were replaced with more precise burning lamps powered by magic stones.
Thanks to this, Sunan’s potion-making success rate increased by several percentage points.
Under the bright lights, Sunan focused on the ring in his palm, a smile of delight on his face.
Once the materials ordered from the Fire Fox Chamber of Commerce arrived, he began crafting magic items immediately.
The first choice was naturally a spatial magic item.
Following the previous plan, Sunan produced seven Alchemy Level space rings in one go, and then successfully synthesized them into a Micro-Light Level space ring.
[Space Ring (Micro-Light Level/Low Magic Items), with a storage space of 5 cubic meters, items placed inside are unaffected by the passage of time, living entities cannot be stored.]
The Alchemy Level space rings only have a capacity of 0.5 cubic meters and lack the time-preservation effect.
However, after synthesizing into a Micro-Light Level space ring, the space expanded tenfold, and the time-preservation effect was added, making it much stronger than the Alchemy Level space rings.
“No more constantly taking things in and out of the cube from now on.”
Sunan put the space ring on his hand, nodding in satisfaction.
“Next is to create Micro-Light Level offensive and defensive magic items.”
Defensive magic items are easy to select, the “Low-Level Magic Items Compendium” contains methods for making protective rings, Sunan can follow it to create some, then synthesize them.
As for offensive magic items, after much thought, Sunan chose an Alchemy Level magic item called the Ice Explosion Necklace.
Its effect centers around the user, releasing a wave of extreme cold, dealing ice-cold damage within a ten-meter radius and adding a frost delay effect.
It can deal damage and control the field!
It’s a win-win!
However, unlike space rings, offensive and defensive magic items need to be as powerful as possible.
Sunan plans to produce more to synthesize Micro-Light Level magic items with greater power.
They must be powerful enough, just before the threshold of becoming Witchcraft Artifacts.
After all, Witchcraft Artifacts require an Official Wizard’s level of Spiritual Power to wield and use.
“This means quite a number of items need to be synthesized.”
Sunan took a deep breath, focusing his Spirit back into crafting magic items.
…
Starlight Calendar 1251.
The New Year celebration had just passed, and the first batch of Dragon Blood Fruit had ripened.
Sunan immediately brought over a group of guards and let them consume the Dragon Blood Fruit to test the specific effects.
The results were quite satisfactory to him.
The physical enhancement effect of Dragon Blood Fruit is roughly equivalent to one-third of a lower-grade minor Dragon Blood Potion.
This magnitude is already quite impressive.
After all, Flash City presently produces less than twenty bottles of minor Dragon Blood Potion per month, whereas Dragon Blood Fruit can yield thousands every three months, translating to a monthly output equivalent to over a hundred bottles of minor Dragon Blood Potion.
The output increased fivefold and more!
This yield is already sufficient to supply Flash City’s current army.
Even if Flash City expands its army later, it doesn’t matter, as the production of Dragon Blood Fruit can continuously increase by expanding the planting scale.
However, the premise is to have enough apprentices to tend and cultivate them.
This requires time to resolve.
[Level 1 Monster Summoning Skill] can increase the number of helpers, but it’s too uncertain.
Sunan attempted seven to eight hundred times and had difficulty summoning an appropriate creature like Grell.
Using this method to find enough helpers would also require a long time.
“The key is to attract them to stay.”
Grell belongs to an Immortal Race, with a long life giving her ample time and interest to experience anything novel.
Thus, when summoned by Sunan and informed she would be in charge of the base’s warehouse, she showed immediate interest and agreed with little hesitation.
Her demanded compensation wasn’t high, just three magic stones per month.
According to Grell, witnessing the growth of young Wizard Apprentices is quite an intriguing affair.
Sunan believes ’young Wizard Apprentices’ includes not only Sherman and the others but likely himself as well.
Besides Dragon Blood Fruit, the Silver Moon Flower planting situation is also very promising.
Planted early, the Silver Moon Flower had already been harvested twice.
The improved Silver Moon Flower extract’s effect has greatly enhanced, significantly reducing the costs of synthesizing Superpower Potion.
Because of this, Sunan has spare minor Active Potions to provide his three students.
After the three youngsters undertook the care of magic plants and the extraction of Silver Moon Flower essence, Sunan found himself considerably less burdened and gained more energy for other work.
Interestingly, the three of them recently successfully constructed their first Star Ring.
The quickest was Sherman, taking just over seven months.
Most of this is thanks to the minor Active Potion.
It’s worth noting Sunan himself initially used only Silver Moon Flower extract, whose effect was inferior to the minor Active Potion.
Comparatively, the three youngsters are undoubtedly luckier, receiving potion assistance for Meditation right from the start.
Yet under those circumstances, Sunan only needed six months to construct his first Star Ring.
From this, we can see the three youngsters’ aptitude isn’t as great as his.
The second to construct a Star Ring was Cole, taking nearly eight months, seven or eight days slower than Sherman.
The last was Attila, taking about nine months.
After constructing their first Star Ring, the three youngsters have now begun learning Tier Zero Magic.
However, Sunan estimates it may take them at least half a year to master their first spell.
This is still with the boost from minor Active Potions.
After all, they lack panel-like cheat skills to quickly master magic.
Thinking of the panel, Sunan checked it briefly.
The Star Ring Meditation Method is now level 9, and eight Star Rings have been constructed, just one short of completing the set.
As he suspected, leveling the Star Ring Meditation Method to 9 requires a drastic increase in proficiency to 200,000.
He estimates it will take at least another six months to upgrade.
His Spiritual Power currently stands at 23.88.
Upon constructing the ninth Star Ring, it should grow to around 25.
“The further I progress, the harder it becomes to increase Spiritual Power.”
“To quickly reach Level 3 Wizard Apprentice, the Evil Illusion Potion indeed seems necessary.”
