Chapter 92

The variety of wizard towers was extensive, but in general, the construction of a wizard tower could be broken down into several major sectors.

There were the energy sector, defense sector, attack sector, living sector, experimental sector, and special sector.

Among these, the most crucial was the energy sector, as all other sectors relied on energy cores to provide power.

As a large-scale architectural unit intimately connected with wizards, a wizard tower daily consumed a considerable amount of energy. If left to the wizards themselves to provide this energy, it would drain them dry and render the construction of such towers meaningless due to the immense resources and effort required.

The key to the energy sector lay in its sustainability and stability.

From Lynns observation of many wizard towers, most of those built by wizards did not have just one energy core. Instead, several energy cores were used to provide energy to the tower.

Common methods included constructing elemental pools and tapping into elemental planes to borrow some energy.

Elemental planes were one of the rarest types among the multiverse, filled with vast amounts of free-floating energy in the elemental plane. Inside, numerous elemental life forms were born, and there was even a small chance of giving rise to powerful elemental lords or even elemental kings.

However, the difficulty of constructing elemental pools was increasing. With the development of Wizard civilization, the number of wizards constructing wizard towers was increasing each year.

Many of the currently discovered elemental planes had already been connected to wizard towers. It was akin to a vast reservoir where many residents had installed water pumps. Although the reservoir received a constant influx of water, the number and scale of pumps had to be controlled to maintain the stability of the elemental plane.

Therefore, the use of elemental pools had decreased in recent years, not because constructing them was difficult, but because selecting a suitable elemental plane was challenging.

Another common method was the Abyss Forge.

The Abyss Forge was somewhat similar to elemental pools, except that instead of drawing energy from elemental planes, it drew energy from the Abyss.

The Abyss, also known as the Bottomless Abyss, was said to consist of countless layers of vast and expansive Abyss realms. It was constantly expanding, akin to a vortex in the dimensional void, continuously absorbing free-floating planes from the chaos void and dragging them into the Abyss, forming new layers.

The energy possessed by such a vast world was naturally terrifying. However, the energy of the Abyss was corrosive, so wizards had developed Abyss Forges to convert energy of the Abyss.

In demon wizard academies, the frequency of Abyss Forge usage was still quite high. Lynn found that most wizard towers would have an Abyss Forge as one of their energy cores.

Naturally, Lynn saw no reason to deviate from the norm. If so many people endorsed and utilized something, it surely had its merits.

Anyway, since there wasnt just one energy core, he decided to mark the Abyss Forge as an option for his energy core.

There were also some other options, such as the Void Insect Mother Energy Conversion Chamber, Divine Captivity, Gates of the Underworld, and the like.

Either they were connected to a powerful plane to serve as a forge, or they captured a powerful life form to serve as a battery, or they set up an incinerator to burn high-energy materials to act as backup energy in special situations.

Lynn made a chart listing the raw materials needed to build the most commonly used energy cores by other wizards.

The more frequently they were used, the more essential these raw materials were. For example, Lynn discovered that the majority of wizards in the indexes opted to use Abyss Forges. This either indicated that Abyss Forges were the easiest to construct or that the raw materials required for Abyss Forges were relatively easy to obtain at demon wizard academies.

He decided to gather the raw materials for the most commonly used energy cores first.

One energy core was called a Core, and two energy cores were called Dual Cores.

Since there was no limit to the number of energy cores, it was definitely better to have more.

But fortunately, constructing a first-level wizard tower only required one energy core, as wizard towers could be continuously expanded.

Therefore, when constructing a first-level wizard tower, simplicity is usually the approach. Apart from the laboratory, the most common facility is the spell testing ground because basic spell testing grounds only require energy-absorbing stones for construction. Although this raw material isnt cheap, its still relatively common in the market and can be purchased with magic stones.

Finally, the special sector wasnt necessarily mandatory when constructing a first-level wizard tower.

However, Lynn still noticed that a small portion of wizards incorporated special sectors into their tower designs.

Such sectors included unique functionalities like floating foundations and spatial anchoring.

These sectors, with unique and independent functionalities apart from the five main sectors listed above, were categorized as special sector.

As Lynn carefully pondered, a sudden spark of inspiration flashed through his mind, leading to a creative idea.

Quickly, he borrowed meticulously selected blueprints from some partially constructed wizard towers.

The contents of these blueprints were more detailed than the indexes, even providing specific explanations for some defense sector formations.

Midway through, while Lynn was engrossed, the communication conch placed nearby lit up. Lynn picked up the communication, and Jim had already arranged a buyer.

The buyer was prepared to purchase four Iron Serpent No. 1 units in one go, expressing satisfaction with the Iron Serpent No. 1.

Lynn took a break to complete this transaction, and after giving Jim a cut of one magic stone, Lynn pocketed 17 magic stones.

Then, Lynn returned to his residence. The construction was nearly halfway done, with seven underground floors already completed, leaving only three underground floors and six above-ground floors unfinished.

Lynn inspected the quality of the underground construction. The reinforced concrete in this wizarding world version exceeded expectations, as even Minor Fireball spells left only minor abrasions and large patches of charred marks on the surface, failing to damage the entire wall.

Lynn settled all the construction payments, totaling 15 magic stones, including raw material costs.

The income he had just received was almost entirely spent in the blink of an eye.

Subsequently, Lynn hurried back to the service hall. This time, he stayed in the lounge of the service hall for a full ten days, with Toby visiting once during that time.

Then, he ordered for Lynn not to be disturbed except for the daily provision of food.

After ten days, Lynn sketched a rough outline on the blank blueprint.

An octagonal tower, tapering down layer by layer from top to bottom, appeared on the blueprint, with the eaves nearly forming a straight line.

The towers surface was adorned with patterns, with a significant portion left blank for constructing magic runes.

In the middle of four sides of the tower, Lynn left a blank area.

He planned to extend four corridors from these four blank areas, connecting them into a circular corridor surrounding the wizard tower.

He also had his own ambitions; if his future capabilities allowed, perhaps this circular corridor could encircle not just the tower but the entire planet or even world. Lynn already had a name in mind for this towerthe Tower of World Encirclement.

However, this was just a rough sketch, with many detailed structures and specifics yet to be designed.

Once the blueprint was successfully drawn, Lynn could begin collecting raw materials.
