Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 467 The People of Suryas

Locke disembarked from the semi-circular void warship with the wizards of the project team. He put away the sea gold sand in his palm and glanced at the affiliated mages of the Suryas plane who came to welcome them.

The Sureas plane is a medium-sized world. The Sureas humans are a branch of humanity. They are slender, each one tall, fair-skinned, and beautiful with green hair. Their average height is 2.5 meters, but their waists are much smaller than those of the main human race in the wizarding world. They are a specialized human race in the Sureas plane, one of the branches of the human race.

At this moment, all the green-haired Suryas people bowed to Locke and the other participants of the Cloud Ze Cup. Their eyes were filled with fervor, as if they were watching their spiritual idols step down from the void warship.

Each region has its own colonial style and ideology. Black wizards are more accustomed to barbaric violence, human trafficking, or the plunder of valuable materials.

There are generally two types of colonies in Yunze Wetland.

One possibility is that it possesses a highly developed civilization, and Yunze Wetland might regard it as a dumping ground for goods and a center for cheap processed products.

The second type is a plane like the Sureas plane, which has a certain level of civilization but is not advanced enough. Such planes will be culturally colonized by the Cloud Marsh Wetland, that is, the wizard civilization will be forcibly spread to ensure that the entertainment and education in their culture completely worship the wizard civilization, thereby forming wizards who are extremely loyal to the subordinate plane.

Undoubtedly, Yunze Wetland values ​​long-term interests more than short-term ones.

At this moment, the people of Suryas bowed to Locke and his companions. "For the supreme truth!"

The mayor of the town of Kalimra, who is also the supreme commander of the Sureas, is a green-haired, meticulous, and very serious man.

At this moment, the supreme commander of the Suryas people said to the ten breeding teams that had already left the dock: "Respected wizards of the Great World of Truth, the Suryas people greet you. To fight against the evil and foolish mechanical demons, we, the Suryas people, have been fighting for truth in this town for thirty years."

The Supreme Commander of the Suryas showed a hint of sorrow on his face, but the next moment, his face hardened with determination, and his eyes shone with unwavering conviction. "But it's all worth it."

"This is all for the truth. It is an honor for us Soreas people to contribute to the truth."

"Dear wizards, thank you for coming to our town of Kalimura and for providing us with guidance."

The Supreme Commander of the Suryas said, "According to the orders of the Supreme Truth Council, we have prepared ten teams of our most outstanding mages for you leaders, and we are ready to equip them with the ten tactical-level weapons that you leaders have given us."

"Three days later, launch a general offensive against the steel fortress of the Mekani people located below Cloud Lake to eliminate the machine spirits hidden behind the Mekani people."

"End this thirty-year war! The truth will live on!"

Immediately, the people of Suryas shouted, "Truth endures!"

Long live the world of truth!

The Supreme Commander of Suryas then began to explain the characteristics of the ten units of the Suryas people.

Each unit consists of 360 mages from Suryas.

Among them will be eight mages equivalent to ordinary first-level wizards, and the rest will be a mixed force composed of first-class wizard apprentices and second-class wizard apprentices.

Each unit has a slight bias due to the different types of magic they learn.

Some units excel at offense, some at rapid battlefield movement, and others at survival.

The people of Suryas proudly introduced their troops to the wizards of the wizard civilization, and the troops stepped forward at the right time, marching in formation before Locke and his companions, their chests puffed out proudly.

Locke knew that the Supreme Truth Council, as the people of Suryas called it, was actually the White Wizard Association's official name to the outside world.

The Supreme Truth Council is the White Wizard Association.

At the same time, Locke and the others heard a voice that appeared only in their ears using prophecy magic: "According to the ranking, you will take turns choosing the troops you want."

"The person ranked first will be the first to choose."

Locke frowned immediately. This meant that the higher a wizard's ranking in the preliminaries, the greater their advantage. After all, judging from the Sureas's own introductions, the styles of each of their units differed considerably.

However, the top three wizards are free to choose the troops with the specializations they want.

The number one ranked wizard, Edgar David, is a young man with a buzz cut. He wears a simple white wizard's robe and has a slight smile on his face. "The strong always get stronger. I like this competition format."

When the people of Sureas heard about the match, they all looked puzzled.

Clearly, many of them genuinely believed this was a war, a war fought for the Great World of Truth, and that they had made significant contributions to it, thus sharing in the glory and believing they had made a contribution.

But they didn't expect that there was never any war; it was just an experiment, a competition.

After careful consideration, Edgar David did not choose the most powerful Sureasian magician legion, but instead selected the most balanced force.

Locke looked at him in surprise. He hadn't expected that Edgar was not as impulsive as he appeared, and that his choices were actually full of rationality.

He selected the most powerful legion among the ten Suryas legions.

Edgar smirked and turned to the second-place finisher, Diana the Witch, with a provocative look. "The strong will be paired with the strong, and the strong will always be strong. I suggest you choose the Sureas Legion, which has the most powerful attack. The second-place finisher will be paired with the second-place finisher; at least you can secure your runner-up position."

The members of Diana's team immediately showed anger on their faces, indicating that the atmosphere within Diana's team was very good.

Diana the Witch glanced at Edgar and said, "Don't say those things to try and sway me. I'm making the same choice anyway, without you having to tell me."

"Over the next three days, our team will spend 72 hours strengthening our team's coordination with the Surreys. So it's not that choosing the best legion will really give you an advantage."

The Witch Diana said, "We can erase this disadvantage through hard work."

The witch Diana chose the team with the strongest attack power.

The third Yennefer witch from Spiral Basin chose the legion with the strongest defensive capabilities from the Suryas Legion.

Next, all the breeding teams selected their respective Suryas legions. When it was Locke's turn, the expressions on the faces of the remaining wizard teams who hadn't yet made a selection weren't very pleasant.

This means that the remaining Suryas are the ones who were left over.

After some thought, Locke discovered that when the first five wizarding teams chose the Suryas Legion, they all avoided the legion with the highest movement speed.

It's probably because they think that high movement speed is useless.

Locke pointed, "I choose Legion Number 3."

The mages in the neglected No. 3 Sureas Legion immediately showed expressions of relief.

They all breathed a sigh of relief.

As the third legion of the Suryas, they should have been elites, but because of their high movement speed, they were not considered an advantage in siege warfare by the major wizarding teams, so they were all neglected.

This made all the people of Suryas very nervous.

Alaric, dressed in a wizard's robe adorned with gold leaf, looked at Locke with some confusion. He was also a young wizard, around 28 years old. "Why did you choose this Sureas Legion? Is high speed an advantage in a frontal assault?"

Locke said, "Actually, there's not much difference between choosing these legions; I just picked one randomly."

Wizard Alaric thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense."
