Synthetic Wizard

Chapter 488: Chapter 282: Innate Advantage (2)

Cyril’s solemn voice echoed in the hall.

Sunan did not immediately respond but remained silent in thought.

The development of events was almost as he predicted; the Wizard civil war indeed erupted.

Moreover, it surged swiftly, transforming into an all-out internal war in just two years.

The Wisdom Code has numerous affiliated organizations, while the Dark Throne has allied with many second and third-rate Black Wizard factions.

Once these two erupt into war as well, nearly all Wizard Influences in the Wizard World would be involved either actively or passively in the war.

An all-out internal war would descend!

As an affiliated organization of the Wisdom Code, the Star Alliance was naturally implicated.

However, Sunan had long been prepared for this.

The Star Alliance has made many preparations for this up till now.

Compared to other affiliated organizations of the Wisdom Code who were caught off guard, the Star Alliance can be said to be well-prepared.

He even originally intended to use this war to strengthen the power of the Star Alliance.

"What does the Wisdom Society want us to do?"

Exchanging a glance with Lize, Sunan spoke calmly.

Cyril stated solemnly: "The Wisdom Society hopes the affiliated organizations assist in dealing with Black Wizard factions other than the Dark Throne, at least suppress them, preventing them from meddling in the conflict between the Wisdom Code and the Dark Throne."

"Of course, we won’t let the affiliated organizations exert themselves for nothing. Besides supplying some resources for war consumption, after the war ends, appropriate rewards will be given based on the affiliated organization’s achievements."

Cyril waved his hand, and two lists respectively floated towards Sunan and Lize.

Sunan took one and browsed, slightly raising his brow.

It was apparent that the Wisdom Code was investing heavily.

Just the initial resource supply was valued at tens of millions of middle-level magic stones.

And the later rewards, even if the Star Alliance gains nothing in this war but only manages to suppress the opponents, it can still receive resource valued at twenty to thirty million middle-level magic stones.

Moreover, as the war drags on, the initial resources and later rewards will also see corresponding increases.

This is just the resources and rewards given to the Star Alliance.

For factions like the Ten Thousand Headed Bird, which belong to second-rate Wizard Influences, the resources and rewards given will only be more.

But that’s expected.

After all, this war’s origin lies in the struggle for ownership of the Earth Crystal Plane among various large Wizard Influences.

If the Wisdom Code wins, they can carve out some ownership.

Yet, for second and third-rate Wizard Influences like the Ten Thousand Headed Bird and the Star Alliance, winning yields no benefits, while losing leads to significant losses. If the Wisdom Code doesn’t offer some incentive, even if the affiliated organizations are obliged to assist in the war, don’t expect them to genuinely exert themselves.

Quickly skimming through the list, Sunan’s expression remained unchanged and he calmly asked: "Who are the Star Alliance’s opponents?"

"The Black Rope Tower!"

Cyril said in a low voice, noticing Lize’s expression slightly change, and hastily added:

"Of course, it’s not just the Star Alliance tackling the Black Rope Tower alone; the Ten Thousand Headed Bird will also participate."

Only then did Lize’s expression slightly relax.

Even among second-rate Wizard Influences, the Black Rope Tower is definitely among the top elite; letting the Star Alliance face it alone isn’t merely described as onerous.

With the Ten Thousand Headed Bird, also a second-rate Wizard Influence, joining forces, they have a few points in favor confronting the Black Rope Tower.

Seeing that Sunan didn’t raise any objections, Cyril continued:

"The Black Rope Tower currently controls a total of twenty-two planes, and the Star Alliance only needs to focus on attacking three of them."

"Which three?"

"The Wulan Plane, the Manlo Plane, and the Xige Plane."

Sunan recalled, vaguely having some impression of these three planes.

Unlike the previous Wolf Tide Plane, these three planes have been under the Black Rope Tower’s control for four to five thousand years, and all have native intelligent civilizations.

After four to five thousand years of Black Rope Tower’s cultivation, these three planes can be said to be strong military forces, far from being comparable to the mere Wolf Tide Plane.

Attacking these three planes is not an easy task.

Sunan’s eyes shimmered slightly, asking again: "What about the True Spirit Wizards of the Black Rope Tower?"

"The Black Rope Tower has three True Spirit Wizards. The Wisdom Society will dispatch two True Spirit Wizards, joining forces with the True Spirit Wizard of the Ten Thousand Headed Bird to constrain them, ensuring they cannot interfere in the war."

Sunan nodded inwardly.

True Spirit Wizards are akin to strategic weapons; strike at the right time, and they can effortlessly shift the course of a large-scale war, adding many variables.

Thus, in wars between Wizard Influences, the first thing often done is to restrain the enemy’s True Spirit Wizards, preventing them from easily engaging in the war.

After discussing for over an hour and settling some details, Cyril finally bid farewell and left.

After he departed, Lize frowned and said: "The Black Rope Tower is not an easy opponent."

Unlike the time at Earth Crystal Plane, where the Star Alliance leveraged Sunan’s methods achieving significant military transport advantage, not fearing the Black Rope Tower.

But outside Earth Crystal Plane, the Black Rope Tower is an undeniable behemoth for the Star Alliance.

Even with the Ten Thousand Headed Bird as allies, the pressure is likewise not small.

"It’s not easy to handle, but most pressure falls on the Ten Thousand Headed Bird. We only need to manage three planes, and the pressure is manageable."

In Sunan’s memory, this Wizard civil war lasted for a full five hundred years.

Although the situation now has changed, the internal war erupted three hundred years earlier, significant shifts shouldn’t occur in major aspects.

After all, the power of the Wizard Influences between the two camps is relatively matched, making it impossible to determine a winner in a short period.

In such a protracted time, the Star Alliance, relying on the high profits brought by magic stones, can completely engage in war while developing, extracting nutrients from the war to accelerate growth.

This is the Star Alliance’s unique advantage!

But these things can’t be clearly analyzed with Lize, so Sunan can only vaguely express part of his thoughts.

"This war may last long; we must prepare for a prolonged war."

"Do not halt magic stone trading; preferably expand its scale. Use all profits to purchase resources, accumulating as much material as possible; the upcoming war’s consumption is expected to be enormous."

Lize nodded and added: "With the war breaking out, the Wisdom Code might also experience resource strains and likely contract the transaction scope."

"Then increase procurement from All Things City," Sunan said without hesitation, "It doesn’t matter if the price is higher."

Anyway, magic stone trade is virtually akin to without capital investment for him; as long as resources can be procured, it’s fine if the price is higher.

"I understand." Lize nodded slightly.

"How’s the situation with military expansion?" Sunan brought up another topic.

"Very smoothly."

Regarding this, Lize showed a faint smile, speaking slowly.

"The fifth golem group army has been completed, and the sixth is in the process of forming. There’s ample resource supply, progress is swift; however, considering the imminent participation in war, a lot of personnel will likely be transferred, affecting the progress somewhat."

"Regarding the Wizard Tower, aside from the original eighteen Wizard Towers, three newly self-built miniature Wizard Towers have recently been completed and quickly redeemed by Wizard subordinates."

"The number of Stellar Fortresses has increased to seventy-five, and the flying fleet has been restored to the pre-Divine Corpse battle standard, totaling thirteen fleets."

Sunan nodded slightly.

In the Divine Corpse battle, the flying fleet suffered heavy losses, with remaining Magic Ships barely enough to form six fleet units. Restoring to pre-battle standard in just two years is already quite impressive.

Overall, the Star Alliance’s comprehensive combat strength in war creations now ranks among the best in third-rate Wizard Influences.

Of course, there’s still quite a gap before reaching second-rate Wizard Influences.

After all, the development time is vastly short.

Considering the strength of the upcoming opponents, Sunan couldn’t help but wonder if he should prepare some strategies to handle the Black Rope Tower’s war creations, ideally significantly influencing the impending battle?

After all, the confrontation of war creations significantly impacts the overall war situation.
