The Synthesis Wizard-Chapter 282: The Outbreak of the Civil War

Boom! Boom!

The ground-shaking sound of an explosion reverberated across the wilderness!

A massive handprint, deep enough to measure tens of meters, appeared on the ground, as if a chunk had been hollowed out, the edges covered with spiderweb-like cracks, creating a frighteningly stark image.

At the very center of the handprint-shaped pit lay the divine abomination, badly injured, its body flowing with blue-green blood, in a miserable state.

The blow had inflicted far greater damage than the previous barrage of attacks!

"Roar!"

The intense pain triggered the abomination's ferocious rage.

Seeing that escape was impossible, it roared and charged upward, aiming to kill the one who had struck it.

"If you don't make a move now, this thing will belong to me once it's dealt with," came a cold voice from the sky.

"Stop talking nonsense. You alone can't handle this thing," another voice, tinged with faint amusement, replied.

It was as though a switch had been flipped in the sky, and suddenly, a violent surge of energy particles erupted. Countless dazzling flashes of magic burst forth.

The wizards watching from afar instinctively widened their eyes, afraid of missing a single moment.

Opportunities to witness True Spirit Wizards in action from up close were rare, and many felt a sense of excitement.

However, when the attack finally arrived, the dazzling brilliance overtook the entire field of vision.

The onlookers could only see a blur of colors and feel the overwhelming shockwave of energy particles.

When the view finally cleared, the divine abomination had vanished without a trace.

In the sky, over a dozen streaks of light shot toward the cave like falling stars.

"Is that it?" Bryce muttered under his breath, his expression filled with confusion.

Su Nan chuckled softly. "After all, it was over ten True Spirit Wizards attacking together."

If only two or three had joined forces, the divine abomination, which had only recently been born, might have had a chance to escape.

But as soon as more than ten True Spirit Wizards appeared at once, the abomination's fate was sealed.

Su Nan glanced toward the cave, then turned away and left.

What happened next was no longer of his concern. It was time for him to leave.

Shortly after, Su Nan arrived at the temporary Star Alliance camp where the army was working on establishing the dimensional portal.

Upon his return, Lize and the others immediately greeted him.

Before they could speak, Su Nan calmly said, "Don't worry, everything has been taken care of."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Finally, Rosy couldn't resist asking, "Lord, what exactly happened?"

"It was a divine abomination."

Su Nan briefly explained the events, though he kept quiet about his extraction of the Law Energy and only mentioned his guess that it was the Source of the Laws.

Upon hearing this, the others exchanged looks, their faces full of surprise.

Whether it was the Source of the Laws or the divine abomination, both were rare phenomena in the wizard world, and to encounter both in such a small dimension like the Earth Crystal Dimension was utterly astonishing.

"It looks like the Earth Crystal Dimension will soon become highly sought after," Rosy remarked.

"Regardless, the Source of the Laws is beyond our involvement. Our priority now is to speed up the construction of the dimensional portal and leave the Earth Crystal Dimension," Su Nan instructed.

"Understood, Lord."

Once everyone dispersed, Su Nan and Lize returned to the Starlight Witch Tower. Lize, still puzzled, asked, "Do you think those True Spirit Wizards will go to war over the Earth Crystal Dimension?"

"Figured I couldn't hide it from you."

Su Nan smiled faintly.

Having worked together for so many years, Lize was undoubtedly the person who understood him best within the Star Alliance.

From just that sentence, she had grasped his underlying implication.

"A main dimension with the potential to become a dimension cluster—its value is obvious. No wizard faction would be willing to let it go."

"Even so, they might not necessarily fight. They could jointly develop the Earth Crystal Dimension."

"That's a possibility, but just to be safe, we should leave as soon as possible."

Su Nan didn't elaborate further. After all, Lize didn't have his foresight about the future and didn't know that the Earth Crystal Dimension was the trigger for the impending wizard civil war. Her assumption was understandable.

Only he knew that the True Spirit Wizards would soon come to blows, and the reasoning behind it wasn't that important.

For now, the Star Alliance's priority was to leave the Earth Crystal Dimension before getting dragged into the conflict.

A battle involving over ten True Spirit Wizards was far more dangerous than any divine abomination!

Lize thought about what Su Nan had said and nodded, not saying more.

An hour later, the dimensional portal was completed.

The Star Alliance army immediately began passing through the portal and returned to the Starlight Continent.

In contrast to the twenty-two hours it had taken to transport the army here, the return trip only took about four or five hours.

Once all the forces had passed through the portal, Su Nan turned to look toward the cave again, just as he sensed an explosive burst of energy particles coming from that direction.

The intensity was far greater than the previous battle between the divine abomination and the wizards!

"Looks like they've really started fighting," Su Nan's eyes gleamed. After watching for a moment, he turned and entered the dimensional portal.

It was time to prepare for the civil war.

The day after returning to the Starlight Continent, Su Nan immediately traded the divine corpse fragments for resources from the Wisdom Codex and invested everything into expanding the military.

The first priority was, of course, increasing the number and rewards of golem crafting tasks to speed up the expansion of the golem legions.

With the resources from the Wisdom Codex and the large number of golem corpses acquired from Black Sotar, Su Nan no longer had to worry about the materials for golem creation in the short term.

After making up for the losses suffered by the golem legions during the divine corpse war, the Star Alliance quickly began forming its fifth army.

In addition, the repair of the Witch Towers was also accelerated.

To quickly strengthen the Star Alliance, Su Nan issued a new policy allowing wizards to prepay a portion of their contribution points to exchange for Witch Towers, with the remaining balance to be paid in installments over the next century.

This policy was immediately embraced by all wizards.

Especially wizards like Corey, Atiel, Tagana, and Fleming, who had accumulated most of their contribution points, exchanged them for Witch Towers as soon as the policy was announced.

Those who had already exchanged Witch Towers, like the staff, Faccado, and Rosy, were the first to upgrade their small Witch Towers to medium-sized ones.

Lize was no exception, and the only large Witch Tower obtained from Black Sotar became hers.

Apart from Witch Towers, the construction of the Starforts was also progressing rapidly.

The Starforts had proven their combat effectiveness in the battle against Black Sotar.

Given that the Star Alliance needed time to gradually accumulate Witch Towers, the Starforts were the perfect supplement to the war machines.

Similarly, the construction of the flying fleet continued.

As for the Magic Rune Knight Legion, its expansion had to follow the usual pace.

After all, even with Dragon's Blood Fruits and Dragon's Blood potions, it wasn't possible to cultivate knights overnight. It still required time.

The Dragon Legion was no different.

After establishing trading channels with the Wisdom Codex and the City of All Things, Su Nan procured numerous resources to accelerate the cultivation of higher-tier sub-dragon species.

For example, Dragon Crystals.

These were rare crystals that formed from the remains of dead dragons, containing the essence of the entire dragon corpse. They greatly accelerated the growth of sub-dragon species.

Thanks to these, the bloodline concentration of the high-tier sub-dragon species had accelerated significantly.

Now, the Dragon Forest boasted several sub-dragon species with over 90% bloodline concentration, totaling over ten thousand.

That said, bloodline evolution remained a significant barrier.

The Star Alliance had only about fifty dragons so far.

Su Nan estimated that they would need more time for the sub-dragon species to reach the next bloodline threshold and evolve, after which the number of dragons would likely experience explosive growth.

Similarly, the Witch Hunter Legion needed to continue expanding.

In the war between dimensions, wizard-level golem puppets were always the backbone of the army.

Given that the Star Alliance's wizard numbers were still far fewer than most second- and third-tier wizard factions, they needed to rely on golem puppets as a supplement.

Su Nan's goal was to expand the Witch Hunter Legion to over ten thousand.

This was no small feat and would require an immense amount of resources.

"The Star Alliance currently controls two dimensions, the Starlight Continent and the Wolf Tide Dimension. These two alone are enough to support a third-tier wizard faction. However, for expansion, they are still far from sufficient."

"To rapidly develop, the Star Alliance still has to rely on the profits from selling magic stones."

The premature outbreak of the wizard civil war disrupted Su Nan's plans.

He had originally intended to conquer one or two more dimensions before the war broke out.

With more territory and resources, the Star Alliance could develop even faster.

Unfortunately, plans rarely survive contact with the enemy.

"However, on the bright side, this civil war may not be a bad thing for the Star Alliance."

Su Nan pondered.

Under normal circumstances, the Star Alliance would need hundreds of years to ascend to a second-tier wizard faction.

But if the civil war allowed them to conquer a few more dimensions and capture more Witch Towers, it could drastically shorten that time.

Perhaps by the time the civil war ends, the Star Alliance would already have reached second-tier status.

This wasn't impossible.

In any case, with sufficient resources, everything was progressing steadily.

After arranging everything and leaving the specifics to others, Su Nan turned to focus on his cultivation.

At the top level of the Starlight Witch Tower, next to the elemental pool.

Su Nan sat cross-legged, gazing at the seven-colored crystal in his palm.

This crystal, which contained the power of laws, was only the size of an egg, yet its value far exceeded that of a large Witch Tower.

If Su Nan were to take this crystal and offer it for trade, many wizards would gladly exchange a large Witch Tower for it.

After all, with this crystal, his chances of advancing to a True Spirit Wizard would increase by at least one or two percent!

Though it may sound small, considering that the chance of a typical level-three wizard advancing to True Spirit was less than one percent, most level-three wizards would gladly pay a huge price for even a one or two percent increase.

Even True Spirit descendants weren't exempt from this!

Under normal circumstances, no wizard faction would risk damaging the Source of the Laws just to create a law crystal, which would only serve as a consumable.

Su Nan was fortunate enough to have encountered the right circumstances and synthesized a divine energy crystal to use as a carrier for the Law Energy, allowing him to obtain this crystal.

After admiring it for a moment, Su Nan stored the Law Crystal away and opened his panel.

[Mental Clarity: 32.42%]

Su Nan estimated that with his current cultivation speed, he would reach level-three crystallization in about three hundred years.

The opportunity from the Earth Crystal Dimension had directly shortened his breakthrough time by over a hundred years!

This was the biggest gain aside from the Law Crystal.

"By the original timeline, if the wizard civil war hadn't broken out before Starry Calendar 2600, I should have broken through to level-three crystallization by then."

"Wait, that's not right. If I had followed that timeline, I might never have discovered the Source of the Laws, and my breakthrough would have been delayed by another hundred years."

After a moment of reflection, Su Nan shook his head and focused back on his cultivation.

Even though he had left the Earth Crystal Dimension, Su Nan kept a close eye on the developments.

The emergence of a divine abomination in the Earth Crystal Dimension had caused quite a stir in the wizard world.

The last appearance of a divine abomination occurred more than three thousand years ago.

That incident had destroyed three separate dimensions and wiped out countless species.

Five True Spirit Wizards had been dispatched to kill the abomination.

However, this time, the divine abomination had much worse luck, as it was born amidst the conflict over divine corpse fragments and was quickly killed by over ten True Spirit Wizards.

Still, before its demise, the divine abomination had caused significant damage.

Reports indicated that during the battle against the abomination, the various wizard factions had lost multiple Witch Towers, and hundreds of wizards had perished.

Even for large wizard factions, this was no small loss.

It was worth mentioning that the True Spirit descendant from the Savage Spirits faction had died in this battle, joining Black Sotar as one of the two True Spirit descendants killed in this conflict.

Soon after the Star Alliance's departure, the armies of the various major wizard factions entered the Earth Crystal Dimension.

What happened next within the dimension remained unknown to outsiders.

It wasn't until three months later that the wizard factions jointly sealed the Earth Crystal Dimension again.

However, this didn't mean the conflict was over. The wizard factions simply didn't want the battle to destroy the Earth Crystal Dimension, so they tacitly shifted the war to other places.

In Starry Calendar 2269, the Savage Spirits faction launched a surprise attack on the Green Pasture Dimension, an important sub-dimension of the Sky Sea Dimension cluster.

The Sky Sea Dimension cluster, of course, was under the control of the Deep Blue Alliance.

This marked the beginning of a large-scale battle.

In Starry Calendar 2270, the Star Spirit Bell Tower and the Bloodline Jungle waged war in the Windspring Dimension, turning it into a bloody battleground in less than two days, nearly wiping out all the indigenous species.

That same year, the Dark Throne frequently interacted with Black Sotar, the Pale Mask, and the Flame Emblem Society, hinting at an impending war against the Wisdom Codex.

The successive wars between major wizard factions plunged the entire wizard world into massive turmoil.

Everyone was on edge!
