Chapter 783: Powerful Spell

Abel finally felt like a real wizard after casting the powerful firewall . He was no longer dashing into groups of hell creatures with a knight sword and putting his life at risk .

Using a knight sword was still a reasonable fighting style in the Rogue Encampment, but he could no longer do so after arriving at Lut Gholein .

Most of the hell creatures in Lut Gholein could use elemental attacks, which were a lot stronger than physical attacks .

He quickly explored the first level of the maggot lair with his new spells . With the spirit guardian knights blocking the attacks upfront, Abel could keep unleashing powerful spells from behind and wipe out those hell creatures with ease .

In the past, it would have taken Abel at least 10 days to explore the maze-like lair fully, even if he was lucky enough to find the entrance quickly .

But now, it had only taken him 2 days before he arrived at the entrance to the second level . Most of his time was spent fighting bugs .

He saw new bugs as soon as he stepped into the second level of the maggot lair . Patches of Black Locusts flew towards him like storm clouds in the sky . It would have taken him forever to kill those things if he just relied on his spirit guardian knights to strike them down one by one .

However, with the Firewall, those patches of black Locusts were dropped dead in ashes . The horrific power of a wizard was on full display .

After a few more days, he found the entrance to the third level of the maggot lair . The hell creature on this level had clearly gotten more powerful . There were Holy Beetles, which were more powerful than Death Beetles, and there were also Sand Maggots with even vicious poison than Stone Worms .

Sand Maggots’ eggs covered the third level, making Abel feel like he was in an alien movie .

As Abel kept moving, those rock-like maggot eggs would burst open and large amounts of sand maggot larva would blast forward .

Those little sand maggots were not powerful, but their poison was still enough to do damage . Therefore Abel had become extra careful ever since he entered the third level .

The ‘move in a flash’ was convenient in this situation . It could always pull him out of the most dangerous times .

Of course, he also had his new Broken Ice Armour on . This allowed him to minimize unavoidable attacks to the max . The armor could also slow down hell creates who attacked him, which made it even easier for him to strike back .

He had been on the third level for 5 days . Abel had gotten used to the smell . He was back at his old ruthless fighting days .

After killing some holy beetles, he discovered a hole covered in slime below their corpses . It was a common marking in the maggot lair .

Abel would not use his hand to wipe away the slime . He tried to use his hand on the slime in the past, and the slime stuck on his hand for days .

Making his spirit guardian knights do the job was also not a good idea . Those things would not clean themselves, so it was still up to Abel to do the cleaning at the end of the day .

Using the ‘telekinesis’ spell was also not a solution since the slime would still end up on his hand,

At last, he decided to use his power of will . Since his power of the will had gotten stronger, it could easily wipe away the slime . It seemed this level-up had come in handy again .

If that slime did not have the ability to block power of the will, he could have easily flashed into the hole . However, since his vision was distorted by it, Abel would not flash into unknown territory .

With the slime away, he quickly scanned the hole with his power of will . It was a single long tunnel, and he did not find a single hell creature with his power of the will range of 350 meters .

Abel ignited another ‘move in a flash’ and entered the tunnel with the spirit guardian knights, blocking at the front .

He scanned the forward for another 350 meters with his power of will . Still, he didn’t find a single hell creature, and suddenly, he felt his heart drop .

Normally, phenomena like this would only happen when a powerful hell creature was nearby . Since they would only keep some servant level hell creatures alongside them, normal hell creatures would not go near them .

Could this be where Coldworm the Burrower was located? Coldworm the Burrower was the final dark gold boss of the Maggot Lair, the most powerful ruler of the territory .

Abel paused for 2 seconds . Suddenly the ground below him began to shake . 15 black and one blue stone worms suddenly broke out from the ground .

All of this happened too suddenly . Before Abel could even react, a string of poison was already flying towards him, and soon, he was engulfed in poison .

Luckily Abel’s body was quite resistant to poison . It had only made him faint a little before he flashed away from the stone worms .

The 8 spirit guardian knights stayed and fought . Their recovery power was remarkably strong . As long as it was not an instant kill, they could fully recover in a short amount of time .

Therefore, as long as Abel kept an eye on the Spirit guardian knight’s health through his druid soul, his spirit guardian knights could be perfect shields .

Since Abel had leveled up as a wizard, those spirit guardian knights could fully focus on defense .

Suddenly, Abel realized something happening to the spirit guardian knights through his druid soul . “Not good . Why were they getting hurt with each attack?”

His gaze then turned to the 16 stone worms . To his surprise, there was a golden spiritual aura glowing below them .

Everything happened too quickly, and Abel did not have time to prepare and take a good look at them . He realized that the blue stone worm was actually a little dark gold boss .

That golden spiritual aura could defect attacks, especially close-range attacks .

“Defence, don’t attack!” Abel commanded through the power of the will .

Simultaneously, the Firewall spell pattern flashed in his hand, and a Firewall appeared below the worms . The worms screeched and relentlessly spilled poison, fully turning the spirit guardian knights green .

The poison from that blue stone worm was especially strong . The health points of those spirit guardian knights who made contact with it dropped at an immaculate speed . However, when it had dropped to one third, Abel’s druid soul automatically used a full recovery potion and revived them back to normal .

When all 15 of the stone worms had burned to ash, the Blue Stone worm was still surviving . It kept twitching in the flames of the Firewall . Finally, it had died when Abel replenished the Firewall 5 times .

After the blue stone worm died, a golden glowing ball flew out from its corpse and entered the Horadric Cube on Abel’s left arm .

Another bottle of ‘ability potion . ’ Abel felt joy struck his heart . Looking at that blue stone worm’s performance, it should have at least 2 abilities: aura enchantment and Extra strong .

Aura Enchantment was the thorn aura ability .

Abel was a little worried when it came to things like aura . According to his teacher Wizard Morton, he might be in big trouble if someone had spotted him using an aura .

Just think about that rune world ‘insight’ with the ability to level up spells through the Meditation Aura . Wizard Morton had created a designated training room with smoke to hide it .

Therefore if he used this ability potion on one of his summons and ended up with the aura enchantment, he could no longer summon that summon in the Holy Continent . This would greatly reduce his ability .

As for this potion’s other ability, ‘Extra Strong,’ he didn’t have to worry about it .

Abel thought for a moment and decided not to use this ability potion immediately . He would consider again after discovering why an aura couldn’t be used in public .

He had 2 ability potions, and both of them had the Aura Enchantment ability . So he couldn’t use both of them for now .
