Abe the Wizard

Chapter 783 - Powerful Spell



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.
