Wizard's Journey

Chapter 1310 Black Gold

The invention of Black Gold Technology dates back a thousand years to the world of Xifan.

With the changing times and the shifting of history, the once-powerful evolved sacred bodies still hold a place in the major empires, with the strongest among them revered as national treasures. However, with the emergence of some hidden legends from the secret bases of these empires, the secret weapons developed by each empire with all its national strength have acquired a higher level of power that can change the landscape of the continent.

Thus, the various empires living in the mindset of science, civilization, and Cold War confrontation are doing everything in their power to research larger-scale and more powerful secret weapons.

And the most fundamental resource to accomplish all of this is black gold!

Black gold is a substance unique to the rules of the Xifan world. It often emerges from the ground as black poisonous smoke. A filtering and receiving device is needed to convert it into black gold, thereby enabling the new generation of birds to use black gold technology in combat and materialize it into various combat weapons.

Out of their own habit, the birds call these places where they collect and filter black gold "hatching gardens".

Incubators are the foundation upon which various empires are built and are the most important resource points. Any mishap will attract the attention of the entire empire. The more famous, high-volume incubators are the focus of many Cold War empires. If they accidentally clash, it will immediately lead to a world war.

The Western World is in its final period of repression before the world war and unification!

On the black and gold water screen projector, news about the Bailing Nest Empire was being played.

"At a secret base of the Empire, a brand-new dual-powered black gold weapon was successfully launched today. Its dual-core black gold system design will bring about a complete revolution in the Empire's combat system, giving the Bailing Empire a dominant position in the arms race with the surrounding countries. At the same time..."

A row of giant black bird robots, half liquid, half energy, and half solid, appeared on the light screen, followed by a series of graceful combat scenes.

With the support of these advanced technologies, soldiers are able to unleash previously unimaginable power.

Then came another news item.

"It is reported that the neutral organization Loki's Nest has successfully developed a Black Gold Barrier today. According to the renowned Black Gold scientist Salmis, the future Black Gold technology combat system will not merely be a combat method that assists our avian bodies in amplification; Black Gold weapons will achieve independent combat capabilities, even completely separating from our avian bodies and being commanded by us in combat. This will bring about a fundamental change to our avian evolution system, and we are ushering in an infinitely wonderful era of explosive growth in Black Gold technology!"

An old owl, wearing small glass-framed glasses with a metal chain attached to them, is being interviewed by a canary.

"Yes, based on my research on some ancient civilizations, I've discovered that the physical constitution of modern birds has significantly declined compared to ancient times. This indicates that our genetic evolution is enabling us to continuously acquire higher intelligence, rather than physical strength. The combat method that combines black gold with physical strength is merely a transitional phase in our era. In the future, we will..."

breathe……

After blowing on a mouthful of piping hot, fragrant coffee and taking a delightful sip, the ostrich placed the coffee cup on the coffee table where he sat with his legs crossed. Then, a series of knocks came from the door.

"Come in."

A female woodpecker gracefully entered the room and said softly, "Governor, this is the latest document from above, requiring our hatchery to increase black gold production by twenty-five percent this month."

"Twenty-five percent? Damn it, it seems those old fogies are working on a new secret weapon again. Living under this black panic that could destroy the world at any moment is simply the most tragic era for us. Look at what the arms race has turned the world into. We birds will one day be wiped out by the black gold weapons we create ourselves."

The ostrich slammed its hand on the folder, speaking angrily, its eyes filled with concern for the country and its people, and it was deeply worried about the future of all birds.

"Are we really happy like this? Sigh..."

In the end, a sigh escaped, as if expressing dissatisfaction with the world and filled with sorrow.

"Yes, isn't our black gold technology enough? Can't we fill this world with peace and love, and live freely and happily ever after? Why do we always have to fight and kill each other, and engage in an arms race? No amount of resources can satisfy the endless greed of the rulers."

The woodpecker secretary echoed, displaying a great, compassionate, and saintly demeanor, full of sympathy for humanity.

"If our world were filled with peace and love, how wonderful it would be if everyone could live in harmony! Governor, why don't we rebel and join the World Anti-Gold Research and Peace Organization! That way, our children won't have to live under the shadow of this dark Cold War. We can use sincerity and love to change this world!"

Under the pressure of the Cold War, various trends of thought began to emerge among the birds.

……

"Huh? This magical substance..."

Green and the three-legged death raven concealed themselves and easily found a world node in this world.

However, just as Grimm was about to return to the world of Eternal Moon with the Three-Legged Death Raven, a black substance that was being processed and refined in a large storage tank in the city caught Grimm's attention with his tricolored eyes.

This is a magical substance that has never appeared in the wizarding world before.

This world's relatively primitive and backward social system seems to rely heavily on this magical substance, developing in a single system. This type of world is similar to a cone-shaped civilization, capable of achieving higher levels of development at the fastest speed.

"Wait a minute."

Green put away the materials he was using to set up the magic circle, clearly attracted by the black gold of this world.

"This property... is perfect, absolutely perfect!"

After studying the tiny drop of black gold in his hand for a moment, Green's tricolored eyes lit up.

If this new magical material could be infinitely concentrated and purified, it would be the perfect material to connect the Great Thousand World Sphere with the Light of True Spirit Balance!

"What, Your Excellency the Annihilation Wizard is interested in this kind of thing? Hmph, those wretched servants' creations, why don't I collect some for them?"

The three-legged death crow grinned sinisterly, its eyes fixed on the heavily guarded, massive city.

"No rush, let me first see what this advanced magical material is, and what functions this world has developed around this magical substance. I never imagined your world could create such wondrous magical materials, it's so interesting!"

Green had even considered using a metallic spark as an adhesive between the head and body of the Staff of Truth!

However, after encountering this mysterious material, Green realized that if he could continuously purify this material, the attribute of the Truth Balance Magic Staff would be more suitable for him in the future!

After all, he was not a mechanical wizard, but an elemental surge body-refining wizard.
