Synthesis Wizard-Chapter 178
Su Nan had never been one to be threatened.
Since the Starlight Tower wouldn’t give him a choice, he simply wouldn’t choose. He would just turn the tables!
A silver metal storm tore through the barrier of the invisible force field in an instant. The moment Su Nan’s fingers touched the Constructing Potion, he stored it in his Spatial Ring.
Immediately after, he lightning-fast grabbed the book and the Spirit Crystal as well.
Only then did the meatball react to Su Nan’s sudden attack.
[Warning!]
[Starlight Tower under attack, defense program activated!]
A beam of light shot down from the sky, silently striking Su Nan.
The shield around Su Nan’s body shattered instantly, followed by the energy particle protective layer. The beam finally stopped a couple of inches away from Su Nan’s body, causing a small area of distortion before disappearing.
The defense of the Ultimate Protection Ring instantly dropped by over 300 points!
Su Nan’s eyes narrowed slightly, glancing at the top of the hall.
Even if this beam’s power wasn’t as strong as a Spell Cannon Tower, it wasn’t much weaker.
He had to take care of the device that was firing the beams first, otherwise, no matter how many Ultimate Protection Rings he had, they wouldn’t be enough to withstand it.
His mind racing, Su Nan had a plan.
A steel Magic Puppet suddenly appeared out of thin air above his head, perfectly blocking an incoming beam.
The steel Magic Puppet instantly shattered, turning into metal fragments that scattered everywhere.
Taking this opportunity, Su Nan had found the source of the beams. The raging metal storm immediately changed direction, flowing like a torrent and smashing into a device on the ceiling that looked like a cannon tower, instantly pulverizing it!
Whoosh!
The walls of the hall suddenly opened up on all sides, revealing doors, and one after another, stone Magic Puppets charged out, encircling Su Nan from all directions.
“Want a Magic Puppet showdown?”
Su Nan chuckled, he wasn’t afraid of this.
One after another, stone Magic Puppets emerged from around him, fearlessly charging at the enemy.
The hall immediately erupted into a war between Magic Puppets!
The tall stone Magic Puppets fought brute force with brute force, using their strength against each other’s strength, swinging their giant fists at each other. The dull sounds of impacts merged into deafening sound waves, echoing endlessly in the hall.
Almost every second, a stone Magic Puppet would fall, turning into a pile of rubble.
The battle quickly degenerated into a meat grinder-like battle of attrition!
Su Nan didn’t make another move, only staying vigilant around him.
He still didn’t know what tricks the Starlight Tower had up its sleeve, he had to save his strength for the upcoming battle.
But while he was cautious, Su Nan wasn’t too worried in his heart.
The Starlight Tower was just a legacy facility for Wizard Apprentices, far smaller than a real Wizard Tower, its defenses wouldn’t be very strong.
He had prepared well for this mission, bringing two squads of small Magic Puppet armies, and he also held many trump cards, these were the confidence and reliance he had to turn the tables.
Since the Starlight Tower wouldn’t let him leave, he would just take down the Starlight Tower, the resources inside would become his!
As if realizing that the stone Magic Puppets couldn’t handle Su Nan, the stone Magic Puppets that came out from behind the doors soon turned into steel Magic Puppets.
Su Nan didn’t hold back either, directly releasing his steel Magic Puppets, along with Elite Double-Bladed Spiders, exceeding the number of Magic Puppets sent by the Starlight Tower. The battle line gradually pushed towards the doors around them.
When Su Nan’s Magic Puppet army occupied two-thirds of the hall, the silent meatball illusion finally moved.
[Detecting increased invasion intensity, now upgrading the defense level to Level 2 Standard!]
With a series of buzzing sounds, the entire Starlight Tower seemed to tremble.
A powerful energy fluctuation suddenly surged from above the hall.
Su Nan looked up and saw that in the originally empty void, magic circles, each a meter in diameter, suddenly appeared. Cannon towers extended from them, with glowing halos gathering and shining on top.
Eighteen cannon towers in total!
The next moment, with a hum, eighteen cannon towers fired simultaneously, eighteen water-bucket-thick beams tearing through the void, attacking Su Nan at the same time!
Unlike the simplified cannon tower from before, these eighteen cannon towers were genuine Spell Cannon Towers, their power was incomparable.
Su Nan didn’t dare to take it head-on. In an instant, the Elite Double-Bladed Spiders around him all leaped up, forming a shield over Su Nan’s head with their bodies.
However, the attack of a Spell Cannon Tower could easily kill even a Third-Rank Legendary Knight, Elite Double-Bladed Spiders with only Second-Rank Legendary strength were simply impossible to withstand.
In just an instant, more than twenty Elite Double-Bladed Spiders were blown to dust.
And their sacrifice only countered four beams, the remaining beams still charged towards Su Nan with relentless force.
However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Nan had already used the Mirror Shadow Technique to split himself into eight, scattering to the surroundings.
The Spell Beams chased after them relentlessly, soon splitting up and hitting the eight ‘Su Nans’.
Seven clones dissipated into bubbles in an instant, and Su Nan’s true body was also hit by two beams.
The Shield Technique shattered in an instant, the 1,000-point defense of the Ultimate Protection Ring also returned to zero in an instant.
Fortunately, after being weakened by the two barriers, the power of the Spell Beams was greatly reduced, easily blocked by the Magic Emblem Core.
After this attack, Su Nan was shocked.
“I can’t let these Spell Cannon Towers keep attacking, otherwise, even with more Ultimate Protection Rings, I won’t be able to withstand them!”
Without hesitation, Su Nan directly threw out more than a dozen High-Level Rune Gems.
If it came down to firepower, even if his opponent was eighteen Spell Cannon Towers, he wouldn’t back down.
Boom! Boom!
The deafening sound waves echoing in the hall instantly increased in intensity!
Along with it came dazzling elemental radiance and beams flying around everywhere.
Su Nan, who didn’t hesitate to use his resources, had become a human cannon tower, fighting eighteen with one, clashing against the Spell Cannon Towers, his momentum no less impressive.
One after another, the cannon towers collapsed and shattered under the relentless bombardment of the High-Level Rune Gems.
In just over a dozen breaths, the eighteen Spell Cannon Towers were all destroyed!
Su Nan had also paid the price of seven Ultimate Protection Rings and over sixty High-Level Rune Gems.
Taking out the Spirit Pearl and holding it in his hand, while absorbing and replenishing his Spiritual Power, Su Nan couldn’t help but feel a little fortunate.
It was also fortunate that the Starlight Tower wasn’t a real Wizard Tower, only equipped with eighteen Spell Cannon Towers, otherwise, if it had been the standard configuration of over a hundred Spell Cannon Towers in a Wizard Tower firing at him at the same time, even with the Ultimate Protection Ring and the Magic Emblem Core, he would have been instantly blown to smithereens.
In the short time it took Su Nan to destroy the Spell Cannon Towers, the Magic Puppets sent by the Starlight Tower had already been completely overwhelmed, beaten to the point where they couldn’t even lift their heads.
Seeing that Su Nan’s Magic Puppet army was about to charge into the doors, the Starlight Tower didn’t hesitate and closed all the doors.
[Detecting increased invasion intensity, now upgrading the defense level to Level 3 Standard!]
[Warning, Level 3 defense program activated, suspending all unnecessary energy consumption, suspending non-combat facility operation!]
As the voice fell, the huge metal gate in the middle suddenly opened, and huge behemoths walked out from inside.
It was a creature with a somewhat deformed appearance like an ogre, but much larger.
It was estimated to be over twenty meters tall.
Its body was like it was made of tightly stretched clay, with many painful and distorted faces showing through the surface, as if other creatures were trapped inside and desperately trying to break free.
There were no features on its face, only a deep black hole.
“Deep Gloom Magic Puppet!”
Su Nan’s expression became a little more serious.
This was an evil Magic Puppet made up of flesh and soul, its materials were taken from creatures that had been subjected to extreme torture, hence it carried extreme malice, pain, and despair.
Due to the evil manufacturing method of the materials, few Wizards (Apprentices) would refine Deep Gloom Magic Puppets, only those who specialized in Necromancy would refine this kind of evil Magic Puppet.
A Deep Gloom Magic Puppet was more powerful than a Mithril Magic Puppet, reaching the level of a Fourth-Rank Legendary.
And from behind the door, four Deep Gloom Magic Puppets walked out!
Su Nan estimated that this was most likely the Starlight Tower’s final battle sequence!
“Ah!!!”
A painful howl came out of the black hole on the Deep Gloom Magic Puppet’s face.
The voice, full of despair and pain, caused Su Nan’s head to ache slightly, making him fall into a trance.
By the time he snapped out of it, the four Deep Gloom Magic Puppets had already charged into the Magic Puppet army, cutting through them like a hot knife through butter, rushing towards him.
Outside the Starlight Tower.
After Su Nan’s group entered the tower, the people hiding around couldn’t sit still any longer. They all appeared, surrounding the Starlight Tower, trying to use various methods to enter.
Sadly, they all failed, and a few unlucky souls seemed to have inadvertently touched some taboo, being blown to dust by the Spell Cannon Towers.
For a while, the group looked at the Starlight Tower helplessly, like watching a delicious cake they couldn’t reach.
Just then, a flash of light appeared on the ground in front of the tower, and more than ten figures appeared out of thin air.
It was the group of people from the Council of Truth who had just entered, along with the four of them, Wand, Rose, Traveler, and Kei.
“What’s going on? Why am I out here?”
Mavitch was completely dumbfounded.
He had just been concentrating on browsing spellbooks, ready to break through this level as soon as possible, and then he blinked, and when he looked up again, he was already back outside the tower.
What happened??
However, no one answered his question.
Updat𝓮d fr𝙤m ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com.
Everyone, including Megison, was confused, looking at each other.
Wand’s group was also dumbfounded, clueless.
“What happened?”
“Did we touch some kind of rule and were teleported out directly?”
“It shouldn’t be, look at those people from the Council of Truth, they were teleported out too.”
“Then what happened… wait! Where’s Su Nan?”
Reminded by Kei, the other three suddenly woke up.
Yes, everyone who went in came out, where was Su Nan?
Was he still inside the tower?
The four looked at each other, the same thought appearing in their minds at the same time.
Could this situation be related to Su Nan?
If it was Su Nan, it wasn’t impossible for him to cause this kind of situation.
In fact, the current situation looked like it couldn’t be separated from Su Nan.
“Something’s wrong, Su Nan didn’t come out!”
On the Council of Truth’s side, Evans soon noticed that Su Nan wasn’t teleported out with them.
Mavitch’s face turned black, he said in a deep voice, “Everyone else was teleported out of the tower, only Su Nan didn’t, he must have done something, capture his accomplices and interrogate them!”
“Don’t waste your effort, those guys obviously don’t know anything.”
Fabio glanced at the four, Wand’s group, who were equally confused, and frowned in thought.
“But this matter is most likely related to Su Nan, what exactly did he do?”
Everyone was baffled.
“No matter what happened, the most important thing now is to find a way to re-enter the tower.”
Megison said in a deep voice, frowning at the inscription stone in his palm.
“No way.” Fabio had already tried it, “The key doesn’t respond.”
The others didn’t believe it and tried a few more times, but no matter how they activated the key, it didn’t work.
With no other choice, everyone could only look at Megison and wait for him to make a decision.
Megison’s face was dark and silent for a while, then he suddenly pointed at a middle-aged man in armor nearby, obviously a Legendary Knight, and said coldly, “You go and attack the Starlight Tower!”
The middle-aged knight’s face changed drastically, “What do you want to do?”
Mavitch immediately understood Megison’s plan, he stepped forward, his eyes cold as he stared at the middle-aged man, and said in a cold voice, “Either attack the Starlight Tower, or die, you choose!”
The other members of the Council of Truth also cast unfriendly glances.
The middle-aged knight’s face fluctuated for a moment before finally giving in.
He couldn’t be the opponent of more than ten Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices.
The middle-aged knight walked towards the Starlight Tower with a pale face, hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and slashed out a sword aura, then quickly retreated, looking at the top of the tower with fear.
Those previous unlucky souls had been killed by the beams that shot down from the top of the tower!
But nothing happened.
The top of the tower was still.
Seeing this, the middle-aged knight showed a look of relief.
Megison and his group looked at each other.
“It seems something must have happened inside the tower.” Fabio frowned in thought.
“What does it matter?” Mavitch showed an eager look, “Since attacking the Starlight Tower won’t be attacked back, then let’s go all out, as long as we break through the defensive magic circle, even without the key, we can re-enter the tower!”
This statement was agreed upon by everyone.
Without delay, Megison and the others all took action, in an instant, countless spells rushed towards the Starlight Tower.
The defensive magic circle that enveloped the entire tower instantly rippled.
Seeing the actions of the Council of Truth, Wand immediately understood.
“It seems they want to break through directly!”
Traveler hesitated, “Should we also take action?”
The three looked at each other, without hesitation for too long, they quickly joined the attack on the Starlight Tower.
Kei hesitated for a moment, and then he also took action.
He didn’t have the same yearning and urgency as others for the Starlight Tower.
After all, he had already taken the Dawn Potion.
Compared to that, he was more worried that Su Nan might be in danger inside the tower.
No matter what, breaking through the defensive magic circle and entering the tower to investigate would tell him the truth.
As the two strongest forces present took action one after the other, the other onlookers couldn’t sit still any longer, and they all joined the siege.
As long as they broke through the defensive magic circle, the doors of the Starlight Tower would also be open to them.
That way, they could also go in and get a share of the pie!
Thinking of this, many people were elated.
