The Synthesis Wizard-Chapter 293:Change Node

"Lord Su Nan, has the Star Alliance been a bit too relaxed lately?"

After the initial pleasantries, Gavin's tone carried a hint of grievance.

Su Nan smiled faintly and replied, "Not exactly relaxed. The three new planes we've just acquired have plenty of matters to handle. The Star Alliance has been quite busy during this time."

"..."

Such a Versailles-like remark made Gavin's lips twitch slightly, and his gaze grew even more melancholic.

While their Myriad-Headed Bird and Blackstone Tower fought fiercely, suffering significant losses, they had yet to capture even a single plane.

In contrast, the Star Alliance had swiftly taken three planes, significantly expanding their territory and practically overflowing with resources, which was quite enviable! In comparison, Myriad-Headed Bird felt particularly disheartened.

With a sigh, Gavin got to the point.

"What conditions would the Star Alliance require to join us in counterattacking Blackstone Tower?"

When it came to business, Su Nan's smile faded, and he said seriously, "The Star Alliance can team up with Myriad-Headed Bird to deal with Blackstone Tower, but the premise is the same as before: both sides will handle different planes."

"Not a problem!" Gavin agreed without hesitation.

For armies of different factions, coordinating joint operations would only lower efficiency; it was better to each take responsibility for different planes, which would be more effective.

Both sides had already reached a tacit understanding on this point, so there was no need for further debate.

What truly needed consensus was the next question.

"Which plane does the Star Alliance want to take responsibility for?" Gavin asked solemnly.

Among the remaining nineteen planes of Blackstone Tower, some were resource-rich, while others were barren.

Some planes had humans as the dominant race, while others were primarily non-human civilizations.

The value disparity between different planes was enormous.

Both the Star Alliance and Myriad-Headed Bird wanted to focus on the higher-value planes.

Su Nan waved his hand, and nineteen three-dimensional models suddenly appeared in the air.

Gavin looked over, his gaze sharpening slightly.

Those three-dimensional models represented parts of the terrain of the nineteen planes of Blackstone Tower.

It was evident that the Star Alliance had done their homework in advance, making it much harder for him to deceive them.

"Among the nineteen planes of Blackstone Tower, there are three with humans as the dominant race, and six that can be considered resource-rich. The only one that possesses both characteristics is the Dark Dragon Plane, where Blackstone Tower's headquarters is located."

"Let's skip the Dark Dragon Plane, but I want the Taino Plane and the Purple Moon Plane."

As the base of Blackstone Tower, the Dark Dragon Plane's defenses would undoubtedly be extremely strong, making it something the Star Alliance could not covet, so Su Nan decisively excluded it.

The Taino Plane was one of the other two planes with humans as the dominant race, aside from the Dark Dragon Plane.

It was also quite resource-rich, akin to another Starlight Continent—before the Elemental Desert struck two thousand years ago.

The Purple Moon Plane was similarly one of the other five resource-rich planes, aside from the Dark Dragon Plane.

Notably, the Purple Moon Plane did not have a civilized intelligent race; it was inhabited only by various exotic beasts and remained in a primitive state.

However, the Purple Moon Plane was home to tens of thousands of rare Magic Plants, featuring vast areas of naturally formed single-species Magic Plant gardens, equivalent to an extremely rich, oversized natural Magic plant garden.

In addition, the environment of the Purple Moon Plane was also very suitable for growing Magic Plants.

According to Su Nan, Blackstone Tower had established many plantations in the Purple Moon Plane.

If they could take this plane, the Star Alliance would be able to achieve self-sufficiency in potion materials, allowing them to cultivate more Magic Pattern Knights and Wizard apprentices.

After hearing Su Nan's words, Gavin showed hesitation. After frowning and pondering for a moment, he said, "That's fine, but the Star Alliance will also need to take responsibility for two more planes."

"Which two?"

"The Baikal Plane and the Barton Plane."

Su Nan pondered for a few seconds and nodded in agreement.

"Alright."

Unlike the Purple Moon Plane and Taino Plane, the Baikal Plane and Barton Plane had no human races and were somewhat resource-poor.

Moreover, the indigenous races of both planes were quite formidable, making them tough nuts to crack.

Su Nan had anticipated Gavin's request.

It was clear that Myriad-Headed Bird would not allow the Star Alliance to reap benefits without shouldering responsibilities. While granting the Star Alliance two high-value planes, they would certainly require the Star Alliance to bear more pressure.

Assigning the Star Alliance to attack the Baikal Plane and Barton Plane, which were of relatively lower value, would effectively tie down a portion of Blackstone Tower's forces.

This way, the number of planes Myriad-Headed Bird had to face would be reduced to fifteen, significantly alleviating their pressure.

Although they lost the high-value Purple Moon Plane and Taino Plane, the overall benefits still outweighed the drawbacks.

After all, Myriad-Headed Bird might not have been able to capture the Purple Moon Plane and Taino Plane anyway; they were never theirs to begin with, so what was there to sacrifice? "Pleasant cooperation!"

"Pleasant cooperation!"

Once the agreement was reached, Gavin hurriedly left Ulan City.

As the person in charge of Myriad-Headed Bird, he had many matters to oversee and could not stay outside for too long.

"By sending out forces from four planes, Myriad-Headed Bird will likely intensify their offensive next."

After Gavin left, Lize walked into the study.

She had been listening to the conversation.

Su Nan smiled and said, "Isn't this better? With Myriad-Headed Bird at the forefront, our pressure will be less."

For Blackstone Tower, regardless of the Star Alliance's previous achievements, they were always less of a threat than Myriad-Headed Bird.

After all, the disparity in strength was evident; Myriad-Headed Bird's overall strength was greater than that of the Star Alliance.

Once Blackstone Tower focused its energy on dealing with the Star Alliance, Myriad-Headed Bird could take advantage of the situation, and the losses would likely far exceed three planes.

Unless the Star Alliance's offensive was exceptionally swift, capturing the Purple Moon and Taino planes in a short time, Blackstone Tower might then shift its main attack target.

In reality, while the Star Alliance helped Myriad-Headed Bird divert some pressure, Myriad-Headed Bird was also shielding the Star Alliance from much of the pressure.

The foundation of their cooperation was mutual benefit.

"What's the plan moving forward?" Lize asked.

Su Nan thought for a moment and said, "As usual, focus on the Purple Moon Plane and Taino Plane, while the other two planes can be used to tie down the enemy."

"However, we can slow down the pace of the attack to avoid drawing too much attention from Blackstone Tower."

With three new planes in hand, the Star Alliance was already well-fed; they could adopt a strategy of low-intensity warfare to develop steadily and cautiously.

Once they had amassed enough strength, they could suddenly strike and swallow those four planes whole.

By then, the war between Blackstone Tower and Myriad-Headed Bird would likely have reached its most intense phase, and they probably wouldn't have the capacity to deal with the Star Alliance.

During this period, the command of the war could be handed over to others, allowing Su Nan to focus on his cultivation and strive for an early breakthrough to level three Crystallization.

In the year 2320 of the Starlight Calendar, the Star Alliance simultaneously launched attacks on the Taino Plane, Purple Moon Plane, Baikal Plane, and Barton Plane.

After fierce battles in the early stages, the Star Alliance quickly established a foothold in the four planes by capturing a series of outposts.

However, after this, the Star Alliance did not launch a fierce offensive, despite their initial victories; instead, they steadily built up their occupied territories, transporting troops and expanding outward at a slow yet cautious pace, leaving the garrisons in the four planes somewhat bewildered.

Yet, with the Star Alliance having captured three planes, Blackstone Tower, despite its uncertainty, had to brace itself for a response.

Thus began a protracted war.

Meanwhile, Myriad-Headed Bird, having drawn forces from the four planes, had more strength to invest in attacking other planes.

Eager for results, Myriad-Headed Bird did not choose a slow advance strategy but instead launched an exceptionally rapid offensive.

The war between Blackstone Tower and Myriad-Headed Bird suddenly escalated to a fever pitch.

Time flew by.

As time passed, the Wizard civil war showed no signs of ending; instead, it grew increasingly intense, gradually spreading from the upper echelons to the lower levels, pulling in more and more second- and third-tier Wizard factions.

In the year 2343 of the Starlight Calendar, Steel Construct declared war on the Green Field Society, with millions of golem puppets marching into the latter's Green Plain Plane.

In the year 2384 of the Starlight Calendar, the Mithril Council launched a surprise attack on the Long Feather Plane under White Egret Tower, killing over a hundred Wizards, including two level-three Wizards. White Egret Tower was furious and launched a massive counterattack against the Mithril Council's headquarters, Silver Sub-Plane.

In the year 2400 of the Starlight Calendar, Myriad-Headed Bird and Blackstone Tower erupted into a great battle in the Sebas Plane, with both sides deploying over five million troops, more than a hundred wizard towers, and four to five hundred war constructs.

This battle lasted nearly two years, ultimately ending in a pyrrhic victory for Myriad-Headed Bird.

The Blackstone Tower forces were expelled from the Sebas Plane, and Myriad-Headed Bird successfully captured this resource-rich plane.

This was also the first plane of Blackstone Tower that Myriad-Headed Bird had captured since the outbreak of the Wizard civil war over a hundred years ago, officially marking the beginning of the counteroffensive.

In the year 2424 of the Starlight Calendar, two True Spirit Wizards from Neptune Whale were ambushed by multiple True Spirit Wizards from the Flame Crest Society, Pale Mask, and Magic Cocoon Society in the Realm of Truth. After a fierce battle, one Neptune Whale True Spirit Wizard was killed, and the other escaped.

The news shocked the Wizard world.

This was the first instance of a True Spirit Wizard dying outside of Godslaying battles in over two thousand years.

After this battle, the intensity of the Wizard civil war suddenly escalated to a new level, with many Wizard factions casting aside their concerns and launching increasingly fierce attacks, leading to a more heated war.

In the year 2487 of the Starlight Calendar, a True Spirit Wizard from Pale Mask encountered a joint ambush by True Spirit Wizards from Wisdom Codex's affiliated organizations, Sky Raven, Cliff Society, and Abyssal Dawn, resulting in the deaths of both True Spirit Wizards.

In the year 2502 of the Starlight Calendar, Wisdom Codex deployed five True Spirit Wizards to ambush Blackstone Tower's True Spirit Wizards in the Realm of Truth, in collaboration with Myriad-Headed Bird's True Spirit Wizards.

Two of Blackstone Tower's True Spirit Wizards were killed, and one was injured, severely wounding Blackstone Tower's strength.

In the following decades, frequent ambushes targeting True Spirit Wizards occurred among various Wizard factions, leading to True Spirit Wizards becoming increasingly reclusive and reducing their appearances in the Realm of Truth.

In the year 2533 of the Starlight Calendar, various Wizard factions reached an agreement to cease hostilities against True Spirit Wizards, but True Spirit Wizards were also prohibited from participating in wars. Those who violated the agreement would face attacks from all Wizard factions.

In the year 2587 of the Starlight Calendar, after over a hundred years of recuperation, Myriad-Headed Bird suddenly launched a powerful offensive, capturing the Kurhe Plane.

In the year 2596 of the Starlight Calendar, Myriad-Headed Bird captured the Gaiu Plane, further expanding their occupied territory.

However, in the same year, Blackstone Tower executed a feint, dispatching its main forces to launch a surprise attack on the Kurhe Plane, reclaiming it.

The back-and-forth between the two sides soon led to a stalemate.

In the year 2658 of the Starlight Calendar, Steel Construct captured the Green Plain Plane, and the Steel Torrent, renowned throughout the multiverse, obliterated the headquarters of the Green Field Society, killing all the high-ranking Wizards of the latter.

The Green Field Society became the first Wizard faction to be annihilated since the outbreak of the Wizard civil war! It was also the first Wizard faction to be destroyed in nearly ten thousand years! Although it was merely a third-rate Wizard faction without even a True Spirit Wizard, it still caused a tremendous uproar, with its impact reaching many planes outside the Wizard world.

Thanks to this, the once fervent Wizard war saw a significant decrease in intensity.

Many Wizard factions seemed to have been doused with cold water, calming down a bit and beginning to reassess the significance of this war.

The Wizard civil war appeared to be at a turning point; whether it would gradually end or become even more intense was something many were watching closely.

In the Holy Tree Plane, the headquarters of the Wisdom Codex.

Ronin stared at the documents on the table, his brow furrowed, and his mood somewhat gloomy.

Without the assistance of affiliated organizations, the Wisdom Codex had been at a disadvantage in its battle against the Dark Throne.

So far, six planes had been captured by the Dark Throne.

Although six planes were not a significant loss compared to the hundreds controlled by the Wisdom Codex, it was still an ominous sign.

Currently, the Wisdom Codex could still hold on, but if the situation did not improve, it would eventually be unable to sustain itself.

At that point, the chain reaction would likely lead to a rapid deterioration of the Wisdom Codex's situation.

Early consideration was necessary!

Snapping back to reality, Ronin looked at the officer standing in front of the table and asked in a deep voice, "Is there any news from Myriad-Headed Bird?"

"Not yet, my lord."

The officer shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"In the battle of Sebas Plane, although Myriad-Headed Bird won, it was a pyrrhic victory, and they suffered significant losses as well."

"Myriad-Headed Bird's original foundation is not as strong as Blackstone Tower's. They have only just managed to catch their breath. Although they subsequently captured two planes, they lost one in return. Now, Myriad-Headed Bird and Blackstone Tower are in a tense stalemate, and it will likely be difficult to achieve any significant results in the short term."

Ronin's expression darkened slightly.

Previously, he had implored the Wisdom Academy to intervene, deploying multiple Great Scholars and collaborating with many affiliated organization True Spirit Wizards to ambush Blackstone Tower's True Spirit Wizards, intending to create pressure on Blackstone Tower, making them neglect their defenses, allowing Myriad-Headed Bird to seize the opportunity to expand their advantage.

However, Myriad-Headed Bird failed to seize this hard-won opportunity, which was truly disappointing.

He had originally hoped that Myriad-Headed Bird would resolve the Blackstone Tower issue quickly to free up resources to support the Wisdom Codex, but now it seemed that this plan would not come to fruition.

After a long silence, Ronin suddenly asked:

"What about the Star Alliance? It seems we haven't heard much from them lately?"
