Chapter 875: 875

As soon as Wizard Emir finished threatening him, Abel put back the invisibility cape and teleported right onto Flying Flame’s back . His eyes stared coldly towards Wizard Emir . Everything that was happening on the battleground paused . The battle only happened between a few individuals, but the destruction produced was the equivalent of small-sized warfare .

A grey “soul light” appeared on the battleground . If that wasn’t enough to show how damaging this battle was, there were also broken pieces of the small-size battle puppets for all to see .

Abel said with a taunting smile on his face, “Remember to get the dragons to find me, Wizard Emir . ”

Right now, Wizard Emir had no way of detecting the blue dragon essence that was coming out of his body . However, it was a completely different story for dragons . The threat Wizard Emir was making was quite pointless, really .

“So you’ve finally shown up, Abel!” Wizard Emir sighed as he looked towards Abel, “You’re just too young, aren’t you, boy? You would’ve had a much brighter future, but you chose to make an enemy out of the Blizzard clan . You are asking for an early death from us . Don’t you realize that?”

Abel sneered at the comment, “The Blizzard clan, you say? You seemed to have forgotten who I am! Do the ice wind wizards show no regard to those from the lightning clan?”

Wizard Emir didn’t seem to mind very much, “You’re a second-rate apprentice from a subcontinent! Do you think the central continent gives a damn about you? You haven’t even done your identity registration yet, so what’s the Lightning clan going to do if I kill you right here?”

Abel asked softly, “So the Blizzard clan is preparing for an all-out attack, then?”

He did have many methods at his disposal, but it just wasn’t quite possible to have a clean kill on the rank nineteen wizards . No, he would have to think about what’s going to happen once Wizard Emir started fighting him with the instantaneous movement .

Wizard Emir said aloud, “Yes, an all-out it is, Abel! If I can’t get you today, then there’s going to be a rank twenty elder after you! It is best if you surrender yourself here, I would say . If you come with me to our clan, maybe the elder will spare your life . ”

The truth stated otherwise . Wizard Emir already gave up on the mission when he saw how fast and strong Flying Flame was . He didn’t want to die here, so instead of carrying on facing Abel by himself, his immediate thought was to go back and report everything to Elder Marz . Given how much he’s already learned from Abel, he didn’t think that he would get blamed too hard for aborting the mission . If Elder Marz decided to continue to job himself, Abel was as good as dead .

Instead of saying much, Abel directed Flying Flame to fly forward . The white fireball in its mouth was as clear as day . Jason was also charging towards Wizard Emir to attack at any point . As for the remaining small-sized battle command spirits, they all fired their consecutive ballista arrows towards Wizard Emir . Once more, Wizard Emir responded by casting the “instantaneous movement” with both of his hands . His body became a white light that disappeared and reappeared several hundred meters away . He was disappearing from Abel’s sight .

Abel sighed in relief when he saw this . It felt just like his first time seeing a rank eighteen wizard . He couldn’t activate his crystal core at all . He could cast spells just by activating his skill tree, but Wizard Emir’s presence just cut off his mana supply entirely, making it impossible for him to cast anything at all . He was getting very uncomfortable with the differences in their power . Despite having an extremely concentrated crystal core, it was still completely overwhelmed in the face of someone that was a total of three ranks above him .

While he was thinking of a new strategy, fresh air swarmed from the middle of the sky . Wizard Emir was putting back the “sky-trapping circle . ”

Abel gave a loud command, “Flying Flame! White Cloud! Watch your surroundings!”

At the same time, he teleported to the ground from Flying Flame’s back . Flying Flame let out a dragon’s roar, then flew towards a higher altitude to patrol . White Snow shot out a wave of ice frost towards the Beamon giant beast before it joined Flying Flame .

Abel bowed and spoke to Ruin and Leon, “Wait here, you two . I’ll take care of this guy first . ”

Leon smiled and spoke, “You can take care of this first, Wizard Abel . ”

After coming to Priest Giant Horn’s corpse, he scanned with his power of the Will and found four portal items in total . He started searching as he stretched his power of the Will into the inside . He wanted some sort of proof because he didn’t believe that Priest Giant Horn could resurrect a Beamon giant beast if he was just an advanced priest . No, not only was it impossible for advanced priests to cast the “resurrection” spell, but it was also impossible for a creature that was resurrected to live for an extended period of time .

This led to one conclusion . Whatever Priest Giant Horn was carrying, he must’ve had at least one item that could keep the Beamon giant beast survive . That was the only way to explain his command over it . Priest Giant Horn was quite rich, so it wasn’t hard to think that he could afford these items . Twenty thousand intermediate skeleton gemstones were quite a sum, even by Abel’s standard . There were also a variety of different potions that he was holding . There was still the “melting potion” that Abel traded with him, and now, it was coming back to Abel after he was dead .

As for the other stuff, they couldn’t quite attract Abel’s attention at all . He’s already got very high standards . Added with the items that the priests were collecting, most of them were pretty much useless for a wizard like him . He could trade them off for some resources, of course, but there really wasn’t any other point beyond that .

“Wait,”

Suddenly, Abel realized that there was an extra bone card in his hands . Upon scanning it with his power of the Will, he realized that it needed to be declared first . This didn’t look like an ordinary card that anyone could declare ownership over, though . The complicated patterns on it and the materials used indicated that no regular low-tier occupation holders would be able to become its owner, let alone use it for themselves .

If Abel had to guess, the bone card used was probably made from the remnant of some sort of ridiculously powerful animal . Out of all the items that he found from Priest Giant Horn, this was about the only one that he couldn’t quite make sense of . When he tried to examine it with his power of the Will, he realized that the card was actually rejecting his application to declare ownership over it .

“I thought Priest Giant Horn was dead,” he thought to himself . That’s when he realized something . Priest Giant Horn was not a wizard like him . Of course, there were certain precious items that he could use at his will . Having thought that, he changed into his druid spirit and converted his internal energy into death qi . After doing so, he injected his power of the Will into the bone card . His druid spirit gave him the same status as a priest when he used his power of the Will into the card .

At the same time, the ice frost on the Beamon giant beast’s body was gone . It screamed and struggled frantically, and the shaking that it was doing forced the multi-surfaced metallic spheres on Johnson’s body to start shaking non-stop . This time, the bone card didn’t reject Abel’s power of Will . His druid spirit successfully entered into the spell circle, making the Beamon giant beast suddenly stop struggling . It became a tamed beast .

Meanwhile, Abel discovered a dark-golden spell rune in the bone card with his power of the Will . It was the spell rune for the “resurrection” spell, a top-level spell for advanced priests . Streams of dark-golden energy flowed inside the bone as it provided the energy for this spell rune to work . The dark-golden energy was constantly recharging other spell circles in this small pond inside of this bone card . It kind of reminded Abel of the divine creations he wore on himself . If his guess was correct, this bone card must be a divine item . The Beamon giant beast, then, was some sort of pet of a divine being . As for how it fell into Priest Giant Horn’s hands, that was not something for him to know .

Abel screamed loudly, “Release it, Johnson!”

As Johnson’s body left the Beamon giant beast, the Beamon giant beast was left standing by itself . There was no intelligence from its face . It was a resurrected creature, and a resurrected creature was, by no means, a living being .

“What a shame!” he sighed to himself . The Beamon giant beast was a dead creature . The dead creature was not supposed to be able to promote its rank . That being said, all that it could do for him was to serve as a tank . Not a lot of help other than that could be used . Of course, that was not to say that the Beamon giant beast was not strong by itself . As the strongest living thing on land, even its resurrected version could withstand the attack of a rank eighteen wizard and a rank eighteen primitive . Since it wasn’t an intelligent creature that could qualify as even a summoned creature, one special good thing about it was that it could be put into a portal item directly . One would have to first get a portal item first, but that was quite convenient in itself .

After putting the bone card back, Abel got the Beamon giant beast into the bone-made portal item .

Abel bowed in gratitude towards Ruin and Leon, “Thank you so much for what happened today, you two . ”

Ruin let out a long sigh, “I didn’t think that Leon and I would be so blind, Wizard Abel . I’ve always seen Giant Horn as a good friend . I never thought that he was capable of doing something like this . ”

Leon gave a light reminder, “Giant Horn is a priest from the Land of Poisoned Cruse, Wizard Abel . Make sure you watch out for revenge from that place . I don’t think Leon and I will ever talk about it, but there’s no telling what Wizard Emir’s going to do . ”

Abel nodded and thanked them again, “Got it . I’ll keep it in mind . ”

Ruin advised him, “Make sure you find a big city to stay in, Wizard Abel . Do not get out . The Blizzard clan and the Land of Poisoned Curse had a lot of influences themselves, but no one’s going to have their revenge on you if you stay somewhere public . ”

Abel smiled in response, “Got it . Thanks for telling me that . ”

Leon said softly, “Get ready to leave, then . We don’t know if Wizard Emir’s going to be nearby . ”

“Sure, I’ll leave after packing up the things,” Abel nodded in reply . Having said that, he went to retrieve the small-sized war puppets . The extent to which they were destroyed all varied . He couldn’t fix them himself, but it’d be possible for them to get fixed if he knew dwarves from the central continent . Yes, since he still had some master’s wine and the grandmaster’s wine in stock, but the dwarves couldn’t reach their hands out to help him .

Before he put back the small-sized war puppets, the battle command spirit ordered them to retrieve all the arrows . After that, Abel got Johnson, Jason, and White Snow into the portal beast ring . It was the tent, the defensive circle, and the seclusion circle after that . When he was done, he jumped straight onto Flying Flame’s back .

“Take care, you two!” Abel said loudly while disappearing from Ruin and Leon’s sight . He didn’t just leave there, though . Instead, he called for Flying Flame to go high up into the sky . Once there, he summoned White Cloud and flew right over the two on the ground . There were two purposes for doing this . One, to protect his two friends . Two, if the Wizard Emir was to show up again, he intended to stalk him this form . He knew he couldn’t hold up a fight in close range, but it was always possible for him to drop a super-exploding ball right on top of Wizard Emir’s head .

Meanwhile, he let the battle command spirit do surveillance patrol on the ground as he checked for what he’s collected this time . Despite some of the dangerous situations he had been putting himself into, the harvest had been quite plentiful . He did trade-off some heritage from Ruin, and while a lot of time was needed to practice them, he only needed to learn a few techniques to make things work .

As for the reason for him to receive the heritage of a Barbarian, it was quite simple . Apart from the spells that he could use to strengthen himself, he also needed to learn how to control the six weapons and the six passive spells . The “control long sword,” especially . If he could practice it to max level, he’d be a lot strong in his melee ability . He could not use the knight’s technique while he was on the central continent, but he could use this technique to increase his performance by a lot if he was to go back to the dark world .
