Chapter 448 - 262: Set a Small Goal First
Maisy’s efficiency was higher than expected.
On the fifth day after the war ended, Cyril brought good news.
"The Wisdom Society has approved Lady Maisy’s proposal. From today onwards, the Star Alliance will be one of the affiliated organizations of the Wisdom Code. Congratulations!"
"Thank you!"
Sunan shook hands with Cyril, exchanging smiles.
After the congratulations, it was time for business.
"Affiliated organizations can receive our Wisdom Code’s protection and internal trading rights, but correspondingly, they must also assume some obligations."
Cyril handed over a few books.
"Every year, the Star Alliance must provide the Wisdom Code a certain amount of resources, the types of which are on this list. You can freely combine them as long as the total value reaches fifty thousand secondary magic stones."
Sunan nodded slightly, casually flipping through the books, seeing nothing different from what he remembered.
Honestly, an annual ’protection fee’ of fifty thousand secondary magic stones is not a significant amount, especially for him.
The annual output of secondary magic stones from a medium secondary magic stone vein is enough to synthesize fifty thousand secondary magic stones.
Obtaining the protection and internal trading rights of a large Wizard Influence for such a small cost allows the Star Alliance ample time and space for development, undoubtedly a very worthwhile trade.
"I’ll send over the resources later." Sunan said.
Cyril smiled and said, "Deliver them to the Holy Tree Plane, someone will receive them."
"By the way, these other magic books are lists of items available for internal trading. You can take a look."
"The message has been delivered, so I won’t stay long. Let’s have a drink together at All Things City sometime."
"Okay." Sunan agreed with a smile.
All Things City is one of the few neutral planes in the multiverse, only allowing wizards to enter, and strictly prohibiting private duels in public spaces. Even wizards from large Wizard Influence dare not break its rules, making it popular among wizards who dislike conflict.
Over time, All Things City has developed into a prosperous neutral trading platform and a place for wizards to relax and exchange ideas.
After Cyril left, Sunan casually handed the books to Lize beside him.
Sunan was more familiar with the items available for trade to affiliated organizations from the Wisdom Code than many members, so he didn’t need to read it again.
"Next, expand the Golem Legion and the flying fleet, and also procure resources to repair the Wizard Tower and refine Wizard Level puppets from the Wisdom Code."
"Also, acquire the design blueprints for the Plasma Cannon and Pulse Cannon, as well as the designs for the Shadow Steel Golem, Vajra Golem, and Supreme Golem."
"Purchase these potion formulas as well."
Sunan handed the pre-prepared list to Lize.
Most of the Star Alliance’s potions were synthesized by him using magic cubes, with costs much higher than manual production. Now that there is a channel to obtain the formulas, there is no need to synthesize them using magic cubes, freeing him from much time.
Lize quickly scanned the resource directory on the list and, after calculating the items to be bought, pressed her lips and said, "To buy all these, it will cost quite a few magic stones. Where will we get so many magic stones?"
Although the Wolf Tide Plane has many magic stone veins, we need to control the entire plane to develop them, and mining the veins takes time too.
"I naturally have a way." Sunan smiled meaningfully, "First, purchase a batch of secondary magic stones from the Wisdom Code; buy as many as you can."
The method Sunan thought of was, of course, using secondary magic stones to synthesize magic stones.
On the trading list provided by the Wisdom Code, many resources can’t be bought with gold and can only be traded with magic stones.
And secondary magic stones happen to be one of the resources that can be purchased with gold.
He could entirely buy secondary magic stones with gold, then synthesize magic stones to purchase the required resources.
But this trading method of only outputting gold might impact the economic system of the Starlight Continent, best used when gold reserves are abundant in the early stages.
Later, he could switch to synthesizing magic stones from secondary magic stones, then use the magic stones to purchase secondary magic stones, repeating the process to earn the difference.
The advantage of this trading method is rapidly accumulating wealth.
The downside is that Sunan has to spend quite a bit of time synthesizing magic stones, becoming a tool of sorts.
But Sunan didn’t mind.
As long as it benefits the growth and development of the Star Alliance, he doesn’t care about putting in extra effort.
Hearing Sunan’s words, Lize was somewhat surprised, but looking at him, she said nothing more in the end.
She had vaguely speculated before that Sunan seemed to have some means to synthesize magic stones from secondary magic stones.
That said, she didn’t intend to explore it further, as long as it’s beneficial to the Star Alliance.
"Also, quickly gather the materials needed for body reconstruction. If there are any missing materials, let me know, and I will find a way to solve it."
Upon this mention, Lize’s spirit lifted, nodding heavily.
"Okay."
It has been two thousand years since she became a ghost, always yearning for an early body reconstruction. Now that the opportunity is near, even with her calm temperament, she couldn’t help being a bit excited.
"Also, collect intelligence on other influences and Plane Communities." Sunan added.
"I understand." Lize agreed without hesitation.
She was well aware of the importance of intelligence.
The multiverse is vast, not just with Wizard Influence, but also various other race influences, with complex and intertwined relationships enough to dazzle anyone.
