Synthesis Wizard.

Chapter 12: Wizard Heritage
There are some strange patterns engraved on the dark iron gate, which are intertwined and entangled with each other, revealing a mysterious charm.

Ke Yi and others were confused, but Sunan was the only one who recognized the patterns at first sight.

Enchant rune!

The structure of the rune is not complicated and it looks like a simple magic trap.

Once someone touches the iron gate, an alarm will be sounded and the person who touches it will be attacked.

However, these runes have become dim and have obviously become ineffective, probably due to the erosion of time.

No matter how exquisite the enchanted runes are, they cannot withstand the erosion of time.

"Behind that iron door is the place where the iron-swallowing beast was created?"

Kei looked at Sunan, who nodded and gave another reminder.

"Be careful, those iron-eating beasts won't just watch us go in."

As if in response to Sunan's words, as soon as his voice fell, a group of iron-eating beasts suddenly emerged from the rock walls on both sides of the iron gate and pounced towards everyone with a vicious wind.

Everyone was prepared. They shouted loudly and went forward fearlessly.

Only Brad took a few steps back and stood in front of Sunan with a heavy shield in his hand.

After seeing Sunan's methods, everyone understood that Sunan was the main force to deal with the Iron-Swallowing Beast, and naturally would not ignore his safety.

Su Nan uttered strange syllables from his lips. This time he did not use acid splash, but instead used the Mage's Hand.

More than ten meters away, a beast that was about to pounce on Key suddenly stopped, and its body seemed to be suspended in mid-air against gravity. Its limbs were dancing, but it could not land.

Kai's eyes lit up, and he took the opportunity to dash forward, slashing the same spot on the Iron-Swallowing Beast's neck with several consecutive sword strikes, cutting off its head.

The headless iron-eating beast quickly fell to the ground, motionless and silent.

Compared to the acid splash that can only attack once, the Mage's Hand has a smaller attack power but a longer duration, making it perfect for cooperating with Key to kill the Iron Devourer.

"Fortunately, the low-level puppets are not very smart and do not know how to kill the fragile spellcasters first. Otherwise, if these guys rushed forward, Brad would not be able to resist them alone."

Su Nan pondered silently in his heart.

Of course, if the Iron-Swallowing Beast was not a puppet creature, he would not have to use only acid splashes and the Mage's Hand to deal with these guys.

With a flash of light, these creatures that have lived in the dark underground for years and are extremely sensitive to light will instantly become blind and be at the mercy of others.

With the tacit cooperation of everyone, the iron-swallowing beasts fell to the ground one after another.

Just as Sunan guessed, the iron-swallowing beast's mission was to guard the iron gate.

Therefore, even though they suffered heavy casualties, they showed no signs of escaping.

More than ten minutes later, accompanied by a crisp sound, the last iron-eating beast was broken into two pieces and fell to the ground.

At this point, more than twenty iron-eating beasts were wiped out.

Looking at the black stone and iron fragments all over the ground, Key's expression was filled with uncontrollable excitement and joy.

Before coming here, he never thought that the biggest threat to the Blackrock Mining Area could be solved so easily!
And all this is thanks to Sunan.

Looking at Sunan's back, Key couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

When Sunan said he wanted to become a wizard, he thought Sunan was kidding and that he must have been obsessed with reading so many books that he would believe what was written in the books.

Unexpectedly, he not only succeeded, but also became so powerful, with all kinds of strange and powerful methods emerging one after another, which was amazing.

So much so that even Key was a little moved.

After returning to the inner castle, should I try to become a wizard?
Sunan didn't notice Keyi's little thoughts, and quickly walked to the iron gate to take a closer look.

As expected, the magic trap on the door had indeed failed. So Sunan called two knights and pushed open the heavy iron door together.

Rumble!
The iron gate slowly opened, causing stone powder to fall from the top of the head and dust to fly.

When the dust settled, the situation behind the iron gate gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.

Inside is an extremely spacious hall, about four to five hundred square meters.

The entire hall was paved with blue-gray square stone bricks. The ground was covered with a thick layer of dust. There were messy footprints and traces of suspected crouching animals in many places.

It can be seen that this hall is the usual activity place of the iron-swallowing beast.

There are three open stone doors deep in the hall, and it is so dark that you can't see what is inside.

Several knights holding torches walked into the three stone gates respectively. After checking and making sure there was no danger, Sunan and Key entered the stone gate.

Behind the first stone door is a room that looks like a warehouse. It is very large and filled with densely packed black stones and iron.

It is not the black rock iron ore that has just been excavated, but the black rock iron ingot that has been refined.

Looking at the tens of thousands of square black stone iron ingots, everyone looked a little dazed.

"Developed"

Joton stared at the black stone iron ingot in front of him and swallowed with a gurgling sound in his throat.

No one laughed at his gaffe, everyone had a similar expression.

Even Kai's eyes were wide open, with shock, ecstasy, and trance. All kinds of expressions mixed together, making his face a little distorted.

The hardness of black stone iron is not inferior to that of refined iron, but it is much lighter, so its price is more expensive than refined iron of the same weight.

I wouldn’t say these black stones and irons are worth tens of thousands of gold coins, but they are definitely worth six or seven thousand gold coins.

It’s almost equivalent to Black Rock City’s tax revenue for ten years!

How could one not be overjoyed by such a windfall?
Only Sunan was not too obsessed with the gold coins. Although he was also surprised, he quickly came to his senses and walked towards the next room.

The second room was slightly smaller and was filled with various tools, including a blacksmith's furnace, molds, and blowers.

However, the most eye-catching thing is the huge stone table in the center of the room, which is more than three meters long and nearly two meters wide.

It was covered with messy cut marks.

Su Nan glanced at the pile of black stone and iron in the corner of the room, and he immediately understood.

This should be the laboratory where the wizard apprentice made puppets.

He had ruled out the possibility that the owner of this place was an official wizard.

Whether it is the strength level of the iron-swallowing beast or the sophistication of the magic trap on the iron gate, it shows that the owner of this place is at most a wizard apprentice and is far from reaching the level of a wizard.

If they were real wizards, they would not be able to break through the guards outside and get in with the power of just this group of people.

Although thoughts were running through his mind, Su Nan moved quickly and searched the entire room quickly.

To his disappointment, apart from the tools and iron ingots, he found nothing else of value.

Su Nan shook his head, turned and left the room and walked into the third room.

Compared with the previous two rooms, the third room is smaller in area, but the decoration is more delicate and comfortable. In addition to a small bed and a desk, there is also a bookshelf. It can be seen that this is a study.

Su Nan's gaze fell on the bookshelf full of books, and his eyes lit up slightly.
