Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 93 Today I Will Make Sure You Can’t Trade Anything

In the workshop.

The magic crystal forging furnace, which had just been shut down, emitted a faint heat.

In front of the workbench, Su Nan carefully placed the last protective ring into the magic cube, and then chose to synthesize.

The next second, the synthesis interface flickered, and a brand new Extreme Guard Ring was produced.

Su Nan took out the Extreme Guard Ring and put it on the little finger of his right hand.

Looking at the five Extreme Guard Rings on his right hand, Su Nan smiled contentedly, feeling a surge of security.

“As long as I don’t encounter an attack that instantly breaks through 1000 defense, I can use the five Extreme Guard Rings in turn.”

“5000 points of defense, enough to withstand more than fifty Second-Ring Spells.”

A weaker Third-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice probably wouldn’t have enough spiritual power to cast more than fifty Second-Ring Spells consecutively. The strength of the five Extreme Guard Rings was evident.

Taking a deep breath, Su Nan looked at his left hand, only his index finger and middle finger were wearing the Calamity Ring and the Spatial Ring respectively, the remaining three fingers were empty.

He planned to make three more Calamity Rings and use all the remaining fingers.

“The materials are all used up, I need to buy new materials.”

Su Nan stroked the ring, casting the First-Ring spell, “Disguise Light”, and the seven rings instantly disappeared.

This way, he wouldn’t expose the fact that he possessed many magical items.

It could also prevent the enemy from discovering them in battle, giving them a head start.

Su Nan then opened the panel.

Over the past few days, “[Magic Item Manufacturing]” unexpectedly broke through to Level 3, and his proficiency increased by over 1000 points.

He was now short of nearly 5000 proficiency points to reach Level 4.

Su Nan estimated that to raise “[Magic Item Manufacturing]” to Level 4, he would have to invest at least tens of thousands of gold coins worth of materials.

As expected, every wizard (apprentice) was built up with massive resources.

Leaving the workshop, Su Nan went straight to the meditation room to perform his daily routine.

Just two days ago, he had successfully constructed the tenth Star Ring.

And the Level 11 Star Ring Meditation Method required a staggering 500,000 proficiency points to upgrade.

At this rate, it would take about 11 months to upgrade and build the eleventh Star Ring.

After meditation, Su Nan, as usual, studied spells and practiced breaking down spells.

By the time he finished, it was already nightfall.

Su Nan returned to the meditation room and took out the key to the trading house.

He had already checked it with the magic cube and confirmed that it had not been tampered with.

It’s just that the key was still in an unusable state, meaning the trading house hadn’t opened yet and the gathering hadn’t started.

Su Nan wasn’t in a hurry, he sat down and waited patiently.

Over the past half a month, he had carefully considered the matter of the Mysterious Wooden Hut.

To trade for the resources he desired from other Sorcerer Apprentices, he needed something to offer in return.

Su Nan was confident in this regard.

He believed that nine out of ten Sorcerer Apprentices in the world wouldn’t have the resources he did.

Firstly, potions.

Other Sorcerer Apprentices didn’t have the magic cube, so it was difficult to collect materials for potion making.

Zeroth-Rank and First-Rank potions were easy, but materials for Second-Rank and Third-Rank potions were priceless.

Moreover, without enough materials to practice, their potion-making skills might not even reach the level of making Second-Rank and Third-Rank potions. ＲáNo͍ᛒЕȿ

Magical items were the same.

Su Nan didn’t have much else, but he had a lot of potions and magical items.

These two things were exactly what any Sorcerer Apprentice needed.

However, Su Nan didn’t intend to trade with potions and magical items, he had something even better — magic stones!

Compared to potions and magic items, which had high production costs, magic stones, which cost less than two gold coins to manufacture, were undoubtedly more suitable for trading.

As he pondered, the time came to late night, and the silver moon hung high in the sky.

At that moment, Su Nan suddenly felt a change in the key in his palm.

Focusing his attention, he discovered that the key was now usable.

Taking a deep breath, Su Nan put on the mask, and then injected his spiritual power into the key, activating the item.

The next second, a feeling of weightlessness swept over him.

When he came to his senses, Su Nan found himself sitting at a long table. Looking around, he found himself in a simple wooden hut.

The walls and floor were covered with dense, intricate runes.

The entire hut was only furnished with a long table and a dozen chairs.

It was exactly the same as the interior of the trading house he saw before.

At this moment, four people were sitting around the long table, just like Su Nan.

They all wore masks and long robes, hiding their faces and figures.

At the head of the table sat a man wearing an owl mask, with the words “Night Owl” inscribed on the table in front of him.

The person on his right wore a fiery red dragon head mask, with the words “Red Heart” inscribed on the table in front of him.

Further to the right, two seats apart, sat a man wearing a bone mask, radiating an aura of gloom.

Even from a distance of several meters, Su Nan could feel the intense negative energy emanating from him.

The words “Wraith” were inscribed on the table in front of him.

Su Nan sat to the left of Night Owl, three seats away from him sat a man wearing a rose mask, with the words “Rose” inscribed on the table in front of him.

Moonlight streamed in from the window, spreading over the entire wooden hut like a light veil.

Su Nan turned his head and looked out the window, he could see the night sky outside.

But he knew it was an illusion, he was now in a different dimension, no longer in the material world.

“Only five people at the gathering today? Seems like everyone’s busy.”

Night Owl looked around, making a light-hearted remark.

“Let’s cut to the chase. As you all know, from today onwards, we welcome a new member to our Mysterious Wooden Hut. Let us welcome…”

Night Owl paused and looked at Su Nan.

“Player.” Su Nan said, using the codename he had already thought of.

As his words fell, lines appeared out of thin air on the table in front of him, as if an invisible carving knife was meticulously carving out the words “Player”.

Night Owl pondered for a few seconds, seemingly trying to decipher the meaning of the codename, but he was destined to be unable to understand.

“… Let us welcome the new member, Player.”

Night Owl took the lead and applauded.

Red Heart and Rose also clapped their hands lightly.

Only Wraith remained motionless, as if he hadn’t heard Night Owl’s words.

Night Owl didn’t mind, he said to Su Nan, “Including you, there are currently eight people in the Mysterious Wooden Hut, but most of the time people are not all here, after all, everyone has their own things.”

Su Nan nodded in understanding.

He was also busy every day.

“Well, let’s get down to business and start today’s trades.”

“Wait!”

Wraith suddenly interrupted Night Owl.

The latter looked at him, puzzled, “What is it?”

Wraith glanced at Su Nan and said, “According to the rules, all newcomers have to show their strength to prove that they are qualified to participate in the gathering. After all, no one wants to waste time trading with someone who doesn’t have much resources.”

Night Owl shook his head, “No need, I can vouch for Player. He definitely has no fewer resources than us.”

Nonsense, the others might not know, but he had personally investigated Su Nan and knew his strength very well.

Could someone who built the Blackrock Cavalry Regiment and the Stone Magic Puppet Regiment lack resources for trading?

He was the first person who wouldn’t believe it!

Hearing Night Owl say this, Red Heart and Rose both looked at Su Nan in surprise, seeming confused as to why this person could get such a firm guarantee from Night Owl.

In the Mysterious Wooden Hut, everyone was unaware of each other’s true identities.

Only Night Owl, as the founder of the Mysterious Wooden Hut, knew the identity information of each member.

All members who joined the Mysterious Wooden Hut were personally invited by him.

Wraith, however, didn’t buy it, and said coldly, “But you can’t break the rules.”

The eyes behind Night Owl’s mask narrowed slightly.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

“Sorry, Su Nan. Wraith and Heb are close, and I had to tell the truth about you killing Heb to persuade others to make an exception to let you join. Perhaps this is why Wraith is giving you a hard time.”

A low voice came from Night Owl’s side.

From the look of the others, it seemed that only Su Nan could hear these words.

“Although Night Owl is the organizer, he has very little control over the other members of the Mysterious Wooden Hut. He wasn’t lying, this is indeed a very loose organization.”

Su Nan thought silently.

This was good news for him.

Without changing his expression, Su Nan nodded to Night Owl and said, “Then let’s follow the rules.”

He reached out and stroked the table, ten gray crystals appeared out of thin air on the table.

“Are these enough to prove my strength?”

Wraith snorted, his eyes fixed on them, but the next second, he froze.

At the same time, a gasp came from under the Rose mask next to him.

A slightly magnetic female voice, belonging to a female Sorcerer Apprentice.

“Magic Stones!”

The ten gray crystals Su Nan took out were undoubtedly magic stones!

Night Owl subconsciously sat upright and stared at the magic stones in front of Su Nan, asking:

“Can I have a look?”

Su Nan gestured for him to go ahead.

There were oaths and contract rules in the trading house, even the owner couldn’t change them, so there was no need to worry about his things being taken by others.

Night Owl reached out, and a magic stone floated up and landed in his palm.

Su Nan raised an eyebrow at this.

Spell silent casting?

Or a magical item’s ability?

If it was the former, then Night Owl’s strength was not low.

After examining it for a while, Night Owl handed the magic stone back to Su Nan and nodded slightly, “It’s indeed a magic stone, though it’s just a lower-grade one, the quality is pretty good.”

Everyone seemed to trust Night Owl’s judgment, hearing him say so, Rose and Red Heart’s eyes instantly became filled with a hint of heat.

Wraith also fell silent and stopped talking.

The Starlight Continent had long been devoid of natural magic stone mines. The existing magic stones were basically leftovers from a thousand years ago, with very limited quantities.

And magic stones had a wide range of uses. Whether it was setting up formations, crafting magical items, refining puppets, or even some special potion-making, magic stones were required.

It could be said that without magic stones, many things couldn’t be done.

On the current Starlight Continent, magic stones were undoubtedly invaluable materials for any Sorcerer Apprentice.

These ten magic stones alone were more than enough to serve as the trade items for a gathering.

Even if Wraith wanted to pick a fight, he wouldn’t find an excuse.

Seeing Wraith’s silence, Night Owl chuckled and clapped his hands, “Since everyone has no objections, then let’s begin tonight’s trades.”

“Who wants to go first?”

As soon as Night Owl’s voice fell, Rose, who was on the right side of the long table, said, “I’ll go first.”

Under everyone’s gaze, Rose’s palm brushed against the table, and two精致木盒 appeared out of thin air.

She opened one of them, revealing a dense cluster of green seeds.

“These are Mandrake seeds. You all know the characteristics of Mandrakes, so I won’t say more. There are 120 Mandrake seeds in total, anyone want them?”

Mandrake was a magic plant with hallucinogenic effects, a material used in many potions.

Su Nan had encountered many Mandrake plants in the Evil Spirit Manor in Stone Bell City, but those Mandrake plants were all corroded by negative energy and could not be used to make potions. They could only be burned.

“What are you trading for?” Su Nan said.

He was just about to open up a new magic plant garden, and could plant some Mandrake.

Rose looked at the magic stones on the table in front of Su Nan, hesitated for a moment, and said, “One magic stone, what do you think?”

Su Nan nodded, “Deal!”

“Thanks.” Rose breathed a sigh of relief.

Over a hundred Mandrake seeds were still worth less than one magic stone, this trade was a bit of a bargain for her.

Su Nan put the Mandrake seeds in the magic cube, checked them to make sure they were alright, and then threw the magic stone to Rose.

With a magic stone in hand, Rose seemed to be in a much better mood, her voice became lighthearted.

She opened the other wooden box, pointed to the potion inside and said:

“This is Blazeheart Potion, a First-Rank potion. Taking it can strengthen your physique and slightly enhance your fire element resistance.”

At the sound of the words “First-Rank potion”, all three present except Su Nan were moved.

Su Nan saw it and nodded silently.

As he had guessed, for these Sorcerer Apprentices, First-Rank potions were quite precious.

Night Owl and Red Heart pondered slightly, seemingly thinking about whether to trade for the Blazeheart Potion, but finally shook their heads and kept silent.

Wraith took out an irregularly shaped gray crystal and said in a deep voice, “A miniature soul crystal, in exchange for your Blazeheart Potion.”

Rose was immediately tempted, she was about to agree, but then she heard Su Nan’s voice.

“Three magic stones, in exchange for your Blazeheart Potion.”

Rose’s spirit lifted, she agreed without a second thought.

“Deal!”

Wraith’s face darkened, he glared at Su Nan fiercely, as if he wanted to throw a spell at his face.

Su Nan smiled, he gave Rose the magic stones and received the Blazeheart Potion in exchange.

As First-Rank potions, Revitalization Potion cost about 120 gold coins.

— Of course, this was before using the improved Silver Moon Flower, and the cost of Revitalization Potion was now lower.

Other Sorcerer Apprentices didn’t have the magic cube, so their potion-making costs were even higher.

The cost of First-Rank potions was at least 200 gold coins.

And the value of magic stones was about 50 to 60 gold coins, considering the rare premium, three magic stones were a fair price for a First-Rank potion.

However, this was only fair for others.

For Su Nan, it was almost like getting something for nothing.

After all, his cost to synthesize a magic stone was less than two gold coins, three magic stones were just over five gold coins.

This price was a steal for a First-Rank potion!

“This potion is perfect for strengthening my physique.”

Su Nan smiled and put the Blazeheart Potion into his Spatial Ring.

Seeing that Rose didn’t take out any more items for trade, Night Owl turned to the others.

“Who’s next?”

“I’ll go.” Red Heart spoke up.

The voice was somewhat muffled and low, obviously disguised, making it impossible to tell the gender.

What he took out was a massive skeleton.

When fully extended, it was about ten meters long and five meters high. Judging from its appearance, it should have belonged to a sub-dragon, a dragon lizard, or other similar creature.

“This is a Spined Wingless Dragon skeleton.” Red Heart introduced.

As soon as the words fell, Wraith couldn’t wait to say, “I want this!”

He then took out a soul crystal and placed it on the table.

“Although the Spined Wingless Dragon is a legendary sub-dragon, the value of the skeleton is relatively low. It’s not as high as the blood and heart, two miniature soul crystals for your skeleton, it’s a fair deal.”

Red Heart nodded, agreeing with Wraith’s statement.

He was about to agree, but suddenly thought of something and turned to Su Nan.

Sure enough, he saw the latter smiling and said, “Five magic stones, do you want it?”

“Deal!” Red Heart agreed without hesitation.

Although the soul crystal was precious, it wasn’t as widely used as magic stones, she needed the latter more.

Seeing this, Wraith was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth, he glared at Su Nan with a murderous look, as if he wanted to blast him with a spell.

Su Nan smiled faintly and glanced at Wraith.

Little brat, you dare challenge me, today I will make sure you can’t trade anything!
