Wizard: I can refine everything

After about a month of construction, the floating city fortress has been initially completed, and various alchemical weapons have been initially deployed. If there is another war in the Black Bone Plain now, 10,000 white wizards can easily win the war with these alchemical weapons.

When entering the 500-meter range near the floating city, Richard's crystal ball suddenly sounded an alarm.

"Alarm, alarm, no flight is allowed in the airspace of the floating city without reporting."

As soon as the sound ended, Richard saw several white wizards flying on the ground, holding magic wands in their hands.

"Who are you! Where is your flight approval?"

Seeing this, Richard hurriedly explained:

"Sorry, I have been away for a month and don't know this rule."

Several white wizards used their mental power to scan Richard's body, and after confirming that he was a wizard, they said:

"Flight control over the floating city. No wizard is allowed to fly without a flight report. Please cooperate."

Richard didn't say much and immediately landed on the ground.

Walking from the ground into the floating city fortress, Richard met many black wizards like him. Unlike white wizards, black wizards prefer to study alone, which also leads to their lack of information.

Many black wizards have gathered in the floating city fortress, and Richard saw Ellie at a glance.

"Ellie." Richard walked to her side and asked quietly, "What is the situation of this gathering? Are you distributing infiltration missions?"

Ellie's mentor Susanna also participated in this war and was a member of the command center. She was more informed than Richard.

"It can be considered as infiltration." Ellie replied, "We are going very smoothly on the front battlefield. According to the division of forces in this world, we have captured two insect countries.

But these insects are not only insect nests on the ground, but also have very complex cave structures underground. Some insects hide in them and keep harassing us.

The terrain of the cave is not good for deploying the white wizard army, so the task of cleaning up these insects is handed over to our black wizards."

Richard nodded, he had already understood the general situation of this mission.

Dark wizards are strong and more flexible in combat, so this mission is indeed suitable for them.

Ellie glanced at the wand in Richard's hand and touched it curiously.

"Where is your greatsword? Why did you change it to a wand without a wand head?"

The wand head of a wand is usually the core of the wand. Even if a good wand head is not engraved with runes, it can increase the power of spells. The lava gem wand Ellie used when she was an apprentice is a typical example.

"The greatsword is not suitable for dealing with these bugs, so I changed it into a staff and added some runes. As for the staff head..." Richard scratched his head helplessly, "I don't have much material on hand, so I can only make do with it."

"Change the greatsword into a staff!?" Ellie exclaimed, "You alchemists are too shameless. If the magic equipment is not suitable, you can change it after leaving the battlefield."

As she said that, Ellie took out her own magic wand with a sour look. There were many traces of repairs on the staff body, but because the wizard who repaired it was not skilled, many cuts left by warrior bugs could still be seen on the staff body.

"Do you think my magic wand can be strengthened?"

"Strengthen?" Richard took the staff and looked at it. This staff was a gift from Ellie's mentor Susanna after she became a wizard. The flame crystal on the head of the staff, combined with the rune array, can enhance the power of the fire element spell at level 100.

This staff is matched with Ellie's already good attainments in Shaping Magic. Her most common fireball spell has reached the energy level of 700. If she uses cursed fire, her spell power can even soar to the energy level of 1,500, and it is group damage.

Unlike Richard's Heart of Annihilation, which can only be used as a single spell.

So in the previous battle, Ellie has been protected by several black wizards as a turret.

"With my level, I can only rely on changing materials to enhance it."

"Okay." Ellie took back the staff with some disappointment.

As black wizards gathered from all directions of the Black Bone Plain, the command of the headquarters was finally delivered.

In the crystal ball, the cold voice of the headquarters constantly assigned tasks to the black wizards present. The black wizards who received the tasks received the corresponding props from the logistics wizards according to the needs of the tasks.

In this month, the logistics wizards of the floating city have conducted a lot of research on the black crystal insects and designed a lot of props targeting the black crystal insects.

The purpose of the black wizard's mission this time is not only to clear the bugs in the underground insect nest, but also to test these props.

Richard's mission is to clear the bugs in the underground insect nest and explore the terrain of the insect nest as much as possible.

Ellie's mission is the same as his, and the mission location is also the No. 1 insect nest.

According to the instructions of the mission, they received an alchemy prop from the logistics wizard, including a masking potion to conceal their own smell, a developing crystal ball that can emit detection sound waves, a reusable slave seal, and a magic pocket for storing slaves.

According to the news from the headquarters, there are many non-combat bugs in the underground insect nest, and the Black Tower wizard temporarily purchases these bugs in unlimited quantities. According to the type, it ranges from one magic stone to one hundred magic stones.

When receiving the props, Richard and the others accidentally met a familiar wizard.

"Lawrence, which insect nest did you clear?" Richard greeted familiarly.

As a teammate who had fought together, Richard was very clear about Lawrence's strength. In a narrow space like an underground insect nest, the power of his shadow spell would definitely be greatly increased.

Lawrence looked at Richard, and a stiff smile appeared on his expressionless face.

As a necromancer, Lawrence transformed himself into a zombie-like living dead. He was very happy to smile at this moment.

"Number One Hive, what about you?"

"Also number one."

"Together for the time being?"

"Agreed."

...

Number One Hive is located 100 kilometers south of the Black Bone Plain. Before coming to this Hive, Richard always thought it was a mountain range.

When he walked to the vicinity of the Hive, the towering Hive was full of holes. These holes were usually the entrances and exits of the black crystal swarm in and out of the Hive. Now many of them were destroyed by the spells of the white wizard.

"Is this the number one Hive?" Richard looked at the behemoth in front of him and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It's so big. It's incredible that this group of insects can build such a big Hive." Ellie also exclaimed beside him.

As a wizard rookie who participated in the plane war for the first time, everything in front of him was so novel.

"It's really spectacular." The old wizard Lawrence said lightly.

He had experienced two plane wars and had seen a lot of scenery in other worlds. Although the insect nest in front of him was spectacular, he was more concerned about the situation inside.

For such a huge insect nest, the underground network structure must not be simple. For the black crystal insect race, these complex network structures are just their own yard, but for wizards, these network structures are traps waiting to eat people at any time.

"Let's go."

Richard used the crystal ball to take a picture of the spectacular scene in front of him, and then found an entrance to enter the insect nest.

The building material of the insect nest is very strange. It is a red sandy soil mixed with plant roots. This material has a considerable degree of strength. Richard tested it and found that it would take at least 50 energy levels to destroy it.

"This building material is quite good. I guess the White Wizard Corps will like it." Richard collected a piece of sand and said lightly.

This thing also has a certain research value. He can study it when he is free in the future to increase his knowledge breadth.

A mature wizard must have a very large knowledge reserve.

Going down the passage of the insect nest, the further you go, the more humid the environment of the insect nest becomes, and even moss-like plants appear on the surrounding sandy soil walls.

This is completely different from the relatively dry environment on the surface of the insect nest world.

According to the wizard's current observation, the surface of the insect nest world is very dry and cold, with a large number of wastelands and deserts, and only a few large rivers are relatively densely planted.

But if we calculate based on the insects that appeared in this war, there should be nearly one billion low-level insects in this world as the basic base.

If it only depends on the density of plants on the ground, this world will never be able to support so many black crystal insect swarms.

Therefore, the command believes that most of the food sources of the black crystal insect swarm are in the underground insect nest, or in other words, the underground insect nest is the main part of this world. If these black wizards clear the insects successfully, they will be sent to the unoccupied insect nests to carry out destruction behind enemy lines in the next step.

The network structure inside the insect nest is very complicated. Various forks that look the same make people confused. If you are not careful, you will start to go around in circles. In addition, due to the special structure of the insect nest, Richard and his companions did not dare to use magic to open the way easily, for fear of causing a chain reaction and burying them.

Fortunately, the headquarters distributed microwave detection and development crystal balls in advance. This crystal ball can use an ultrasonic wave that is inaudible to human ears to detect the surrounding terrain. In the complex underground system of the underground insect nest, this crystal ball is crucial.

Otherwise, wizards without special means will get lost in the cave.

As they entered the underground insect nest, the scenery in front of them instantly shocked them.

They are now in a relatively wide underground cave. The walls of the cave are covered with light blue luminous moss. Among these mosses, brighter luminous mushrooms are scattered like stars in the night sky.

Richard took a deep breath. The temperature of the cave was significantly higher than that of the surface. The air had a slightly moist sweetness, as if walking in the forest after the rain.

"The spore content in the air is significantly higher than that on the surface. Be prepared for poison prevention." Richard warned.

"Well, the concentration of water elements in the space is high. There should be underground water veins nearby." Ellie also added.

The elemental biological bloodline she fused is the fire element. In this environment with dense water elements, she feels very uncomfortable.

Lawrence took out the developing crystal ball distributed by the logistics wizard. After activating it, a sound wave that was inaudible to human ears swung out of the crystal ball. After a moment, the crystal ball projected an image. The content of the image was the nearby network structure.

"Ellie, you guessed wrong. There are no underground water veins around here." Lawrence looked at the image. "If there are underground water veins nearby, this image will be affected. This water element is probably caused by the special rules of this world. You must pay attention to this later.

These special rules of other worlds often lead to many scenes that do not conform to the common sense of our wizard world."

After that, he pointed to a larger hole in the image, and there was a small dot in the hole.

"There is a cave here. I guess there should be a bug in it."
