Chapter 844: Dragon Abyss (Three in one)
Abel sensed the arrogance of Red Dragon Nathaniel. It was expected, the only one with a slightly better attitude was Blue Dragon Finn. You could see the respect for the younger generations from his face.
Abel was also getting a little arrogant a moment ago since he had just become an elite wizard, and this had made it all disappear.
There were still too many powerful figures beyond a rank 16 wizard. Each dragon could kill him in a second.
“Red Dragon Nathaniel, Abel made the wine you just drank. As well as the food you’ve been eating every day. Your attitude can make you lose all of them!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel gazed at Red Dragon Nathaniel and exposed Abel’s identity.
The eyes of Red Dragon Nathaniel began to sparkle in curiosity, and he immediately had a change of tone. It was the directness of the dragon’s “My dragon god. Blue Dragon Abel, I’m so sorry for how I’ve acted. You are an extremely gifted chef. We could not live without your food!”
“Red Dragon Nathaniel, thanks for your over compliment!” Abel laughed and said.
Suddenly a gold dragon flew in and turned into a human form with slight electric arcs on his body. He quickly stepped up to the table and reached towards the Grandmaster wine. “Haha, you guys are drinking without me? I can smell the aroma from outside. This barrel belongs to me now!”
Blue Dragon Emmanuel reacted quickly and put away the wine before him, and yelled, “Gold Dragon Cornelius wants to steal our good wine. Beat him up!”
“Beat him up!” Gold Dragon Cornelius was used to fighting, but it was always one to one. No one had won against him due to his lightning element, so the other 4 dragons also yelled.
Abel knew this gold dragon Cornelius was not Blue Dragon Emmanuel’s enemy. They were all just playing around. There were not any grudges between them.
Since they were all in their human form, the 6 dragons did not transform back to their dragon form during the fight.
The 5 dragons formed an alliance against Gold Dragon Cornelius and knocked him out in no time, but then the 5 dragons began to fight against each other.
After a while, all the dragons fell. They all laid on the floor laughing while looking at the embarrassing look of each other.
“Blue Dragon Emmanuel, you are too slow. I can’t help but take from you!” Gold Dragon Cornelius claimed up from the floor and shook his body.
The wounds on his face quickly faded. It was the recovery speed of a giant dragon.
“Gold Dragon Cornelius, you know what? today my brother came to see me, and you embarrassed me!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel also claimed up from the floor.
“This nobody is your brother?” Gold Dragon Cornelius gazed at Abel. He then added, “Hey, young dragon. Why did you study wizardry? Just sleep for a hundred years, and you will be strong!”
“Gold Dragon Cornelius, were you this strong when you were only 20 years old?” Blue Dragon Emmanuel bit back.
“Sure, a 20 years old elite wizard really is a genius, but it is still a waste of time. The best thing to do for a young dragon is to sleep. This minimizes the risk of danger!” Gold Dragon Cornelius began to feel a little embarrassed.
“If he really sleeps for a hundred years, our food supply will vanish. And what about that amazing grandmaster wine!” Red Dragon Nathaniel also stood up and interrupted.
“He…. he’s the one how made the food?” Gold Dragon Cornelius paused for a moment and quickly changed his attitude. He turned to Abel with a smile and said, “Blue Dragon Abel. You are these guys’ brothers, so you should be my brother as well. I beat them up into piles every time!”
“Ah!” Abel didn’t know what to say.
“Ok, ok, since it is Abel’s first time in the dragon abyss, and he brought us such a good wine. Why don’t you join us, Gold Dragon Cornelius? We just started!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel interrupted. He didn’t want Gold Dragon Cornelius to keep embarrassing him.
“Yeah, let’s drink!” Gold Dragon Cornelius quickly nodded.
The dragons began to chat as they started drinking. Since each of them had their training or mission, it was a rarity that they had all gathered together like this.
“Blue Dragon Abel. We dragons also respect fair trade. We’ve been eating your food every day. In the past, we just didn’t know who made it. Since now you are a member of the dragons, just tell me what you want, and we will trade it for the food!” Blue Dragon Finn smiled and said.
He knew taking care of the next generation is important, so he just wanted to help Abel. The giant dragons were the most dragons in the Holy Continent. The things they had were no ordinary. At least something could help Abel increase his ability faster!”
“Yeah, Blue Dragon Finn is right. Don’t be polite with us. Just say what you want!” Gold Dragon Cornelius said with a loud voice.
The dragons often messed around. The things they stole were quite scary.
The dragons had a different way to cultivate their young. Since they were almost invincible, they often did not need any fighting experience during their growth. Most of their enemies would grow weak the moment they sensed their dragon energy anyway.
Therefore, the dragon’s often encouraged the dragons to fight amongst each other with their brutal bodies. It not only sharpened their fighting skills, but it could also strengthen their bond. Due to dragons’ training style, they might not see each other once in hundreds of years, let alone building a strong relationship.
Gold Cornelius had gotten a lot of advantage from this system because of his lightning element. He had almost beat up the whole dragon race, but only the young dragons, of course. They would not dare to mess with the elders.
“Blue Dragon Abel, no need to go easy on them. They are all very wealthy, especially Gold Dragon Cornelius!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel laughed.
Abel didn’t really lack many training resources. He had always been meditating with fresh gold crystal cores. No wizard in the Holy Continent could even get close to this luxury.
He was already leveling extremely quickly. He still needed some time to adjust after he became an elite wizard.
“If all of you are willing, then I have a little favor to ask!” Abel paused for a moment and continued, “I am a human emperor of a kingdom, and Blue Dragon Emmanuel knew it.”
Blue Dragon Emmanuel saw Abel looking at him, so he nodded.
“I hope all of you can lend a hand if my kingdom is threatened. As you know, I am an elite wizard. I won’t spend too much time in the Holy Continent!” Abel added.
“Blue Dragon Abel, you want to go to the Central Continent?” Gold Dragon Cornelius frowned “that place is very dangerous. You have to be careful. It’s best to wait until you passed the young dragon phase before joining the fights!”
It was not the first time Abel heard about the Central Continent’s danger, and the words of Gold Dragon Cornelius just made him even more interested.
“As for taking care of a human kingdom, it might be a problem. We can’t get involved with the business of the human world, right?” Red Dragon Nathaniel hesitated.
“Blue Dragon Abel is the emperor of the Kingdom of St Ellis, so the Kingdom of St Ellis is the kingdom of the dragons. Anyone messing with the kingdom is messing with the dragons!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel laughed.
“Yeah, Blue Dragon is a human emperor, but he is also a part of the dragons. We’ll just go take a tour around that place from time to time and see who still wants to mess with us!” Gold Dragon Cornelius nodded.
The only thing they did not expect was that no one would want to mess with the kingdom of St Ellis anyway. Instead, it was more likely that they would mess with others. As the most powerful kingdom in the Holy Continent with the elves and dwarves as their alliance, there was nothing they couldn’t do in the Holy Continent.
Abel wondered if it could maintain its stability after he left.
Afterward, Blue Dragon Emmanuel took Abel for a tour around the Dragon Abyss and the legendary dragon abyss cave. There were pseudo dragons everywhere but not many real dragons.
Abel could sense special energy within the dragon abyss. It was unlike mana, but it was slowly strengthening him.
“Blue Dragon Abel, most of the pseudo dragons living here are the love children of dragons, so you could just see how many dragon families are here. This is the only place suitable for drag training, so the pseudo dragons rarely leave this place!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel explained.
Abel could understand. There were countless low-rank wizard dwelling around the Bakong city magic towers back in the days just to absorb the mana given out by the magic towers.
He could sense the special energy in Blue Dragon Emmanuel’s cave was a lot denser than it was out there.
“We are now at the peak of the abyss, and this is where us blue dragons live. The ice in this place will not melt in tens of thousands of years. The cold energy could be slowly absorbed into our breathing as we trained!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel introduced.
The peak of the abyss was extremely big. The cave of Blue Dragon Emmanuel only took up a small part. According to Blue Dragon Emmanuel, the higher they go, the denser the cold energy would be. However, those higher areas were all taken up by elder dragons.
Since Abel could not fly, he summoned Flying Flame “Flying Flame, come out!”
Flying Flame flew out of the monster ring and realized he was back in the dragon abyss, his home. The only thing was that he no longer had any relatives here.
Still, it was very happy. He couldn’t wait to take a tour around.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel took the lead, and Abel followed as he jumped on Flying Flame. There were big gaps between the mountain peaks, at least ten miles each.
The peak in front of them was not high, but a mysterious fog surrounded it.
“This is the green dragons’ peak, but make sure you don’t get too close. There are many poisonous things around. Even the fog is vicious!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel explained from afar.
Green dragons were the masters of poison. They were known for it across the Holy Continent. As long as there was a green dragon around, nothing could grow.
Although Abel had the poison antidote of the Dark World, he didn’t want to test it out against the green dragons.
He did not expect the beauty of the lower peak of the mountain. He would not expect it was filled with poison.
“This is where Green dragon Bridges live, but you don’t want to get close to his cave!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel laughed.
Although Abel had not interacted with green Dragon Bridges for long, he could sense the bluntness of a dragon from him. Their interaction was nice, but Abel was not expecting him to live in such a scary place.
After they passed the green dragon peak, they came across a red mountain.
“This is the red dragons’ peak!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel introduced again, and Flying Flame swooped down.
Abel suddenly remembered. Flying Flame used to be a fire pseudodragon, so this place should be his home.
Flying Flame landed on the base of the mountain and stopped in front of a simple-looking cave.
There were no decorations around the cave. It looked like it was just dug out.
“Flying Flame, this is your home?” Abel jumped down and asked.
Flying Flame nodded and ran around the cave with its short little legs,
“Was the status of this Flying Flame very low in the dragons back in the days?” Blue Dragon Emmanuel stepped up next to Abel and asked.
He could see Flying Flame was a real dragon. Although his dragon blood was not as thick as a giant dragon, it was acceptable for a young dragon. Anyone who could transform from a 2 legged dragon to a young dragon would be a genius. How come he was living in such a place.
“Flying Flame was very small when I got him, and he was badly injured, so I’m not sure about his status!” Abel didn’t know, but he could also guess. He had been away from the dragon all this time, and no other dragons had ever tried to find him.
Something just didn’t add up. Abel was only 20 years old, and he had gotten Flying Flame when Flying Flame was very small. He must be extremely gifted to transform from a 2 legged dragon to a young dragon in such a short period of time.
“Blue Dragon Abel, you were lucky to find such a gifted dragon!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel sighed.
He had no idea how many resources Abel had, especially the power of those soul potions on top of the combination of Flying Flame’s own dragon blood.
Flying Flame was not some gifted genius. He just got too much from Abel.
“Let’s go in!” Abel said.
Since he was so close with Flying Flame, Flying Flame’s cave was basically his cave, so he invited Blue Dragon Emmanuel as he owned it.
Flying Flame was already tidying his stuff. There was not much stuff, just around 10 low-rank fire gems and a few pseudo dragon scales.
Flying Flame put away the scales but did not move the gems. He treasured them before, but now it meant nothing to him.
He then took a step back and looked at his cave before returning to Abel.
Abel and Blue Dragon Emmanuel stood in the mouth of the cave. Flying Flame took a deep breath. He did not look back. Instead, he leaned his head towards Abel.
Since their souls were connected, Abel knew exactly what he was thinking. Flying Flame had fully let go of his past. He just needed Abel’s care and comfort.
Abel gently padded his head. Interaction like this had rarely happened ever since Flying Flame had become a young dragon, but at that moment, it was like they had returned to the times where Flying Flame was first contracted.
Abel sensed from the soul chain that those scales were the only things Flying Flame’s parents had left for him.
“What Flying Flame just did with his breath was retracting his scent. From now on, this cave no longer has an owner!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel explained from the side.
“Flying Flame, you will become a real giant dragon in the future. Your parents will be proud!” Abel began to comfort Flying Flame.
Blue Dragon Emmanuel did not take Abel’s words seriously. The blood of a dragon was not that easy to level up. Unless Abel killed a fire giant dragon and used its dragon core to level up Flying Flame, his chance of becoming a giant dragon was low.
However, Flying Flame thought differently. He saw the power of his owner. Nothing was impossible.
Was leveling up the blood of a dragon really that hard? To Abel, all he needed to do was to combine the blood of Flying Flame one more time, and he would have a good chance of becoming a giant dragon.
The only thing was that Flying Flame had just become a young dragon. It would undermine Flying Flame’s potential if Abel tried to force him to level up again.
The next to visit was the peak of the gold dragons. It was black in color and filled with grey clouds up above. There were even lightning sparkling within from time to time. Maybe only the gold dragons could live in a place like this.
Afterward, Blue Dragon Emmanuel brought Abel to the peak of the black dragons. It was a peak wrapped in black fog, and Abel could clearly sense the death qi.
“Black Dragons are rare, and they are very hard to deal with, so don’t get too close to them!” Blue Dragon Emmanuel carefully controlled his distance.
Abel had memorized the map of those 5 peaks. Things like this had almost become instinctive to him ever since he got the world stone.
He realized the 5 peaks of the dragons had perfectly formed a 5-star magic circle, and his gaze turned towards the center.
“Blue Dragon Abel, I can’t bring you there. It is where the Holy Dragons live!” Blue Dragon Spotted where Abel was looking, so he quietly explained.
…..
This news spread like wildfire. The Kingdom of St Ellis Emperor, Grandmaster Blacksmith Abel Harry was now an elite wizard.
What Abel had done in Angstrom City was too hard not to notice. It was impossible for the news to not spread.
In the past, Abel was just a well known Grandmaster Blacksmith, but his name had been a hot topic for everyone ever since he became an emperor.
It was almost unimaginable what kind of genius could become an elite wizard before 20 years old.
He was the first to do so in human history, and all kinds of prestigious titles began to be attached to his name.
However, unlike normal people, all those big organizations cared most about what Abel would do next because he could finally leave the Holy Continent through Miracle City.
Was he going to give up his throne if he decided to leave? Or was the state going to take over?
All kinds of speculation began to emerge, but the most prestigious knew Abel didn’t have any children, and he had always endorsed the state. Therefore, the throne would remain.
The 2 other kingdoms also began to speculate how they should restructure their relationship with the Kingdom of St Ellis after Abel left. The Kingdom of St Ellis would grow weak without Abel.
The entire Holy Continent was afraid of the Kingdom of St Ellis because of Abel’s power. All the elite wizards and elite priests who died in the past hundred years had to do with Abel in some direct way.
Even that unexpected rank 18 old man had died in a battle with Abel.
Therefore even Abel was the basis of his Kingdom. Although he didn’t show up often, no one would dare to mess with his kingdom as long as he was in the Holy Continent.
However, as soon as Abel left, everyone would have their eyes on that endless amount of crops and that vast sum of land.
Meanwhile, Abel returned from the Dragon Abyss. He did not stop in his palace. Instead, he directly teleported to the Denan City Wizard Union.
As soon as he appeared, all wizards bowed, “The great Emperor Abel!”
Most of the wizards were captured during the battle, but they had all been released ever since Abel had become the emperor. Especially those beginner wizards, not a single one was missing.
Abel gently nodded, and white light soon began to sparkle in front of him, and Wizard Dunn emerged from the lights.
Although Wizard Dunn was Abel’s teacher’s teacher, Abel’s status was so high he still had to greet him personally.
“Wizard Abel, welcome!” Wizard Dunn was very happy to see his disciple’s disciple. He immediately did a wizard bow.
Unlike the other wizards, he was not expecting Abel to become an elite wizard this quickly.
But seemed like he had to change the way to address Abel once again. He had addressed Abel as a wizard because an elite wizard was finally something the wizard world truly recognized.
Abel had killed elite wizards before, even a rank 18 one, but no elite wizard, not even Wizard Dunn thought Abel had done it all by himself.
The most important thing to a wizard was one’s own strength. It was true power. Anything external would be inferior.
Therefore despite Abel’s glory in the past, Wizard Dunn had always addressed him as a Grandmaster Blacksmith, not a wizard.
If someone had multiple identities in the Holy Continent, you would always need to address him by his highest one.
“Wizard Dunn, I hope I’m not bothering you!” Abel bowed back.
“It’s too crowded here, let’s head to my office!” Wizard Dunn looked around at the crazy looks on the other wizard’s face and shook his head.
Abel and Wizard Dunn soon vanished from the teleportation circle in a flash under the fiery looks. Since the teleportation they used was a public one, another wizard quickly emerged from the circle. He was almost stunned by the looks.
“Wizard Abel, have a seat!” Wizard Dunn pointed at the first chair at the very top of the long table of his office and smiled.
However, Abel did not do so. Instead, he smiled back and took the second seat on his right.
Wizard Dunn began to laugh. He was very happy about Abel’s humbleness and respect for him.
“Wizard Dunn, I’m here today to ask you about the secret of the Holy Continent!” Abel said bluntly.
“Wizard Abel, let me grant you the rank 16 wizard badge from the Kingdom of St Ellis wizard Union first!” Abel Dunn said as he took out a ready-made badge from his portal gear.
Wizard Dunn wanted Abel to take the wizard badge first because Abel’s official wizard badge was not given out by the Kingdom of St Ellis Wizard Union but the Linate City Wizard Union.
Such a gifted wizard would have the attention of many wizard unions, even after Abel left the Holy Continent.
“Thank you, but I still haven’t mastered any elite wizard spell. What if I don’t pass the examination?” Although this was what Abel had said, he still snatched the badge.
“There is no need. The examination is only for intermediate wizards and below. Elite wizards will be recognized automatically. No one can fake being an elite wizard!” Wizard Dunn.
Abel listened as he placed the badge on his chest.
Wizard Dunn smiled as he gazed at the wizard badge on Abel’s chest. He continued, “Wizard Abel, today I will tell you about the truth of the Holy Continent!”
Abel nodded and poked his ears up.
“No species in the Holy Continent are actually against each other. The humans, the Orcs, the elves, and the dwarfs are true allies!” Wizard Dunn’s words were not surprising to Abel, but at the same time, it was a little more than what he was expecting.
The battle between the humans and orcs looked more like training than an actual war. Although they were horrific, no elite force would really get involved.
However, Abel did not expect them to be allies. Allies meant someone that fought alongside you, someone you trusted with your life, and he just couldn’t imagine himself trusting his life with an off priest.
“There are 4 super teleportation circles in the Holy Continent, and they were distributed among the 4 species. Only the most talented elite of each species can teleport to the Central Continent through one of them!” Wizard Dunn continued.
It was not surprising that the elves had a super teleportation circle because Lorraine was already in the Central Continent, but he was not expecting there were 4 of them.
“Wizard Abel, I know you have knight skills, but don’t ever expose any of it in the Central Continent, even in the slightest bit!” Wizard Dunn then lowered his voice.
“Why?”
Abel just couldn’t understand what happened in that place?
“There are some things you just have to see for yourself to understand. I just have to warn you. This is the lightning’s identity card. You can join the lightnings when you reach the Central Continent. Of course, you can also join any other wizard line if you want. It is your right. But let me tell you, the lightning is the only wizard line made entirely out of wizards with lightning talent!”
Abel held the identity card in his hand. No matter if he joined the lightning or not, he had inherited their skills. Thai identity card would reflect his abilities.
