Chapter 288 - Black Wind’s Speed
Chapter 288 Black Wind’s Speed
Since the gold Power potion could be used multiple times, it was what separated the spirit guardian knight captain from the rest of the spirit guardian knights. The current spirit guardian knight captain was basically totally immune to ice and fire attacks. But of course, it was under his defense limit.
As far as Abel knew, Rakanishu had 2 main abilities. The first one was speed, which Abel had just experienced its power through Rakanishu’s attack. The moment when Abel’s first arrow struck Rakanishu, it had already rushed in front of him. This special ability to charge allowed the 2 little legs of Rakanishu to accelerate even faster than Black Wind in a short distance.
The second ability was lighting enchantment. This scary enchantment ability could not only give the subject an almost lighting immune ability, but it could also unleash lighting strikes towards the surroundings when attacked. Therefore, if you attacked lighting enchanted being, you would be struck back with lighting.
As Abel held the gold Power potion in his hand, he started thinking to himself. If the spirit guardian knight captain could get the lighting enchantment through the Power potion, it could unleash a corresponding enchantment no matter if it was faced with a Fire, Ice, or lighting Wizard. On top of that, its teammates also had the ability to increase attributes. Therefore, these 4 spirit guardian knights were basically wizard killers.
But first thing first, he needed to see if the spirit guardian knight captain could even get the lighting enchantment attribute. Since he had gotten an enchantment ability through 4 to 5 abilities before, the chance of getting it from Rakanishu should be even higher as it only had 2 abilities.
As Abel was still thinking, Black Wind came back, holding 2 pieces of equipment in its mouth. Afterward, it threw them in front of Abel.
“That’s a kris!” Abel mumbled as he bent and picked up the dagger from the ground. It was Rakanishu’s weapon, but Abel didn’t notice it at first since it was too fast. Now it was clear to him; this was a dark gold kris.
The shield was a small dark gold buckler. It had some pretty patterns on its surface, made up of eye-catching red lines. This shell didn’t look dull as the other ones. Instead, it looked very lively. There was also a socket on top of it as well.
There were many Kris out there, and the only one Rakanishu could use the Jade Tan Do.
Abel put the 2 potions in his hand to a side, and held the dark gold kris with 2 hands as he mumbled: “Jade Tan Do!”
A dark gold color flashed on the kris as Abel focused on his power of the will. Then, a set of stats appeared.

This was no ordinary attack weapon. It could also increase defense attributes. Abel put this little kris in his assistant equipment area. Once he encountered an enemy with a poison attribute, the +0% To Maximum Poison Resist, and Poison Resist +95% could show it’s power. Therefore, Abel no longer needed to care about poison spell attacks.
No wonder why the poison creeper couldn’t do anything to Rakanishu. With these 2 attributes, no poison could hurt it no matter how powerful they were.
The ‘cannot be frozen’ attribute was also very powerful, that’s why Abel’s ice spell attack failed. The most powerful effect of ice spells was frozen. Therefore with this attribute, the solo adventurer Abel had gained an extra layer of defense in the dark world.
He then picked up the dark gold shield and mumbled: “could this be a Pelta Lunata?”
But as soon as he said this, a dark golden glow began to shine in the shield, and some stats appeared within his power of the will.

Abel gained a deep respect for the person who made this light little Pelta Lunata Buckler as he held it in his hand. It was such delicacy. This thing was a lot smaller than any magic shield Abel had ever made, yet it’s defense was 3 times stronger on top of so many attributes.
Especially the +10 will. This would not only increase his mana to 100 points, but it could also allow his power of the will to reach even further.
As Abel was examining these 2 new dark gold equipment, Black Wind already had its eyes fixed on the bottle of gold Power potion. Its instinct told him this was an extremely powerful potion and could increase its ability a lot. Seeing these 2 potions on the ground while his owner was playing with the equipment, his simple mind told him that his owner didn’t care about these potions.
Since his owner had placed those potions on the ground, it should be able to pick it up and give it a little sniff to see if they were any good for it. Up to this point, Black Wind lightly used its claw to pick up the dark gold Power potion towards its nose. These Horadric cube combined potions were placed within a tightly sealed crystal glass, so no smell should leak out as long as its lid was not open.
Black Wind gently used its claw to pick open the lid, and a soul striking smell directly came through its nose. It then reached it’s mouth closer to the bottle, almost completely shoving its nose inside it.
“Black Wind, what are you doing?” Abel turned his head feeling like something weird was happening
These words scared Black Wind a little, which made the bottle tip. Just like that, all the gold liquid inside it was poured directly into Black Wind’s mouth. It then looked at its owner with an innocent look.
Abel helplessly stared at the empty bottle, not a single drop of the potion was left. Pity filled his heart. These potions could only have an effect on the summons. Now it was completely wasted since Black Wind had drunk all of them.
However, as Abel was thinking, Black Wind’s body began to glow in gold. Abel was shocked as he watched the glow slowly engulf Black Wind’s body. It could now pick its ability. Abel never thought that summons actually included the soul chained contracted Black Wind as well. Good thing Black Wind had drunk it by mistake or Abel might have never discover this.
Now, Abel no longer felt like the potion had gone to waste. As long as it had an effect, it didn’t matter who had drunk it. They were all his teammates, after all.
Black Wind let out a long howl reflecting all kinds of emotions such as sorrow and excitement. Afterward, the gold glow disappeared, and the shadow of Black Wind reappeared.
Abel quickly stepped up. Nothing seemed to be different about Black Wind. Rib Bone no. i’s body had completely transformed the first time it tried the Power potion. Of course, maybe Black Wind’s ability was way higher than Rib Bone no.1 back then.
“Black Wind, What ability did you get?” Abel asked.
Black Wind looked at its body, gave out a little kick with its leg, and began to run. Just like all normal creatures, Black Wind also used to have a normal speed of acceleration. But now it has reached an indescribable speed the moment it started running. All Abel could see was some black light continuously surrounding him in a circle a few hundred meters out.
It had penetrated the speed limit of normal beings. Abel was sure that Black Wind had gotten the special speed ability of Rakanishu, and it was manifested right in front of his eyes.
Seemed like Black Wind was even a little bit faster than Rakanishu, which was understandable- Rakanishu’s short little legs compared to the 4 muscly tree trunk legs of Black Wind.
In the next following days, Abel and his summons continued to find an underground tunnel towards the Dark Forest. On the third day, the poison creeper was healed, and it rejoined the battle.
