Chapter 907 - Ervo Forest
Chapter 907: Ervo Forest
Abel’s name spread throughout the Central continent once again. In the past, this was because he was a 19 years old elite wizard, but that was nothing compared to what happened this time.
A law-defying wizard disappeared, a decent size organization destroyed, 45 elite wizards turned into soul beams.
According to the report, frost city looked like the end of the world. The view was enough to make anyone’s heart drop.
However, the star of the show vanished from the face of the world as well. At first, some thought Abel had died in the blast as well, but the WIzard Union soon got a report from Ice Crown City that Abel had already left from teleportation before the blast.
There was no doubt Abel was the one who caused this incident. Everyone was shocked. No organization would underestimate a destructive explosion that sets off from within a city.
Abel was never heard again after he left Ice Crown City.
Ervo forest was ten thousand miles from the evil kingdom. Abel transformed into elf Bennett and summoned his mad wolf. Then he began to make his way to Bay Law City.
This vast area was the domain of the New Kingdom of the elves. It was known as the biggest forest in the Central Continent, and it discriminated against all other species.
Due to the special status of the elves, the Wizard union recognized the existence of this kingdom. The elves’ most vibrant city, Bay Law City, was Abel’s destination.
He took out a book and began to enjoy himself on the mad wolf. WIzard Marlon’s collection had opened his eyes. There was so much knowledge for him to flick through.
It has been 5 days since he left Frost City. He did not use light gems to meditate during this time. His quick level up made the mana in his wizard core softer than his training.
Therefore, his only task was to get used to his new abilities and slowly merge them with his mana during the past few times he entered the Dark World.
It was not something he could rush. At least he could not use light gems to increase his meditation effect in the next few months.
What had taken hundreds of years for other people was achieved by Abel in a short amount of time. Still, there were downsides. The most he could do was to use his powerful body to force his mana together with some special technique.
His druid soul did not rest as he was reading, and a small spell pattern emerged from his hand.
Since he might need to stay in an elf form for a while, he decided to learn all the druid spells. Now was a perfect time.
He had the druid spell guide for a long time but always dedicated most of his time to wizard training, blacksmith training, or even alchemy. Also, the druid ability was never too important to him, so he had always neglected it.
With the world stone, especially 2 pieces of world stone, his spell learning speed shoots up dramatically. It was the first time he truly lived with a druid identity, so he had to learn all the spells from beginner to advanced.
Spell symbols began to emerge on his skill tree one by one. He chose the most important spells as his best defense.
The schools of druid included elements, transformation, and summons. The element school could use natural force such as wind, fire, and earth to attack enemies. It was like wizardry with a different energy.
That was why Abel always thought learning druid spells was unnecessary. The effects were too similar.
The transformation school of druid was even more unlikely for Abel. He was a master of knight skills and close body combat. Turning into a beast for battle was almost unimaginable.
One could no longer use spells after turning into a beast, and spells were Abel’s most powerful attacks. The move in a flash had saved him countless times.
Therefore even if it was nice to have a boost of strength and speed, it was the most unlikely druid school to study for a wizard.
Lastly was the summoning school. Abel was familiar with this school. Although their summons was not as powerful or vast in number as a priest’s skeletons, they were useful in some circumstances.
Up to that point, a hurricane wrapped around Abel. It was a hurricane armor, and it could absorb elemental attacks. The higher level of the armor, the more damage it could absorb.
“Oh, there are elves here?” Abel suddenly heard a voice. This Ervo forest was not a human kingdom. There were no easy entries for other species other than elves.
“Quick, this way! Just let them go!” Another voice yelled.
Abel turned around. He saw an intermediate druid with a noble elf in a luxurious robe riding a mad wolf. Behind them were 3 top-level fighter elves in skin-tight silver amour holding a bow.
Mad wolf was the summon of an elite druid so that intermediate druid must have summoned his mad wolf with a magic object.
Abel knew the elves were a wealthy species with a long history. They had much more magic objects than humans.
Behind those 5 elves were a round of grey wolves. They were spiritual beasts corroded by death qi in the Ervo forest. They were known as the fallen grey wolves to the elves, and each of them had to power of a beginner druid. Therefore, an intermediate druid couldn’t win against a group of fallen grey wolves.
“There is an elf upfront. Quick, turn, don’t drag him down with us!” The noble elves yelled behind the intermediate druid. “Master, that’s an elite druid. Let’s ask him for a helping hand. He can save us!” The intermediate druid saw how strong Abel’s mad wolf was, so he yelled in excitement.
“Mr druid, I am Count Hutt. Please help us. We will definitely repay you after we return to Bay Law City!” Count Hutt looked at Abel and realized a group of fallen grey wolves shouldn’t be a problem to him, so he quickly begged.
Abel’s first impression of Count Hutt was not bad since Count Hutt wanted to turn away before he realized Abel’s identity.
“Go!” Abel did not make a move. All he did was lower his voice.
However, his word carried a stream of blue dragon energy around the elves and landed on the fallen grey wolves.
It was almost like they ran into something horrific and immediately speeded back.
Abel had precise control over his blue dragon energy. If he had exposed more of it, those low-rank spiritual beasts would die on the spot.
“Thank you so much for saving our elves!” Count Hutt was not expecting those fallen grey wolves to run off with just one word from Abel. Those things had given them such a hard time, so he quickly jumped off his mad wolf and bowed.
“Count Hutt, what are you and your men doing in this place?” Abel asked out of curiosity.
It was no surprise to see an intermediate druid roaming around in Ervo forest alone. At least escaping shouldn’t be a problem for them. However, an intermediate druid with an earl and 3 top-level fighters was almost a never-seen combination.
“Bad luck, our flying beast was attacked, so we ended up here!” Count Hutt shook his head.
Meanwhile, that intermediate druid carefully looked at Abel. Although the wolves had run off, he was still worried for the safety of his master.
Someone who could scare off a group of fallen grey wolves with just one world must be extremely powerful. Someone like that would not care about the safety of a count.
“Can you please give me your name? I want to know the name of my lifesaver.” Count Hutt smiled.
“Oh, let me introduce myself. My name is Bennett. I’m just making my way to Bay Law City.” Abel disregarded that intermediate druid and bowed back.
“Druid Bennett, can I invite you to join us on our way back to Bay Law city? Of course, when will repay you when we arrive!” Count Hutt bowed again.
“Count Hutt, Of course!” Abel was not short in wealth. If he told Count Hutt, he was rank 18, that Count would definitely rather find his own way out of the forest.
Abel just needed an identity to enter Bay Law City. He looked like an elf, but he did not have a corresponding identity. Following a count could be a good idea. He could also learn more about the condition of elves in the Central Continent.
Abel summoned another mad wolf for Count Hutt. Since the 3 top-level fighters were very strong, they could match up to the speed of a mad wolf.
Count Hutt felt his heart lift alongside Abel. He had something very important on him. If something happened to him in Ervo Forest, his family would be greatly affected.
Simultaneously, he was very happy that Abel had lent a hand and didn’t immediately start negotiating the benefits.
Along the way, he told Abel many things regarding the recent events of Bay Law City. Bay Law City was the capital of the New kingdom. It was where elves gathered with many satellites and castles in their surroundings.
The most well-known thing about the place was the potion maker camp. It was an area made for alchemist potion makers to gather and share their research. The potion maker union headquarters was located, and the camp was like their holy land.
There were all kinds of valuable ingredients in the Ervo forest, and alchemy ingredients from all across the Central Continent were gathered in the camp. There was almost nothing you couldn’t find.
The reason Abel came to Bay Law City was to get an identity. He wouldn’t dare to use a teleportation circle without an identity since all the wizard Union’s teleportation circles required one. It was not something everyone could use. It had tight regulations.
Abel didn’t want to expose his wizard Identity, so he had to find another way to get recognized.
Since he did not have any documentation declaring his birth, he would run into some problems if he tried to register as a druid.
However, it was not the case with potion makers. Much like all alchemy occupations, all he needed was to show the alchemy pattern inside him.
The status of a potion maker was prestigious—no matter in the elves or other places.
Abel told Count Hutt that he was a homeless druid and he was shocked. Normally only low-rank druids would roam around like that. All big families wanted elite druids.
However, he respected Abel’s privacy and did not ask too much. He decided he would invite Abel as soon as he was back at Bay Law City.
Soon, roads and man-made objects began to emerge from the forest. Abel knew he was near.
More and more elves began to emerge in luxurious carriages filled with beautiful engravings. They were wearing luxury robes, the special culture of elves was on full display.
Abel’s ordinary magic robe looked outdated in comparison, but the mad wolf below him reflected his prestige. No elves would dare to look down on him.
Count Hutt let out a long breath of relief. Although he had been laughing and chatting with Abel, he was still a little paranoid about the things on him. He could finally relax.
They kept walking, and Abel came across a city so big he couldn’t even imagine it. He had arrived at Bay law city. He needed to let Count Hutt find a normal identity recognized by the official and then head to potion maker camp.
Count Hutt wouldn’t reject such a simple request, especially for someone who just saved his life.
