Chapter 388 Strengthen

After saying goodbye to Master Robbin, Abel and Master Thorin returned to their hotel. There was still one week to the Master Gathering, but he wasn’t planning to go with Master Thorin. He had way too many secrets on him. Initially, he thought that his Blackfire Magic Staff he made was just some ordinary stuff, but 2 masters highly acclaimed it.

He also had a lot of potions on him, and he couldn’t let anyone know about his summons, so he just decided to go to Kitchener City by himself.

If he wasn’t going to use a teleportation circle, maybe White Cloud could get there in a day. Abel had more than enough time.

By the evening, Abel and Bartoli left Miuah City. Although it was more comfortable to live in the city, he couldn’t enter the Dark World. The unfamiliar atmosphere and the grand magic circle worried him too much. He was no longer another well known Blacksmith. There were way too many people who wanted to visit him. It would be a big problem if he had entered the Dark World, and Bartoli couldn’t fight off an invader.

After he connected with White Cloud and Flying Flame, he found a safe place to let Johnson out. Bartoli and Johnson set up the Protection Circle of Dark Valley. Afterward, Abel, Black Wind, and Flying Flame arrived at the Rogue Encampment.

Abel had decided to use those 50 bottles of ‘Soul Potion’ he saved up for an emergency. He was already an official wizard, and he could push his level 10 Raise Skeleton spell to new highs.

He unleashed his spirit guardian knights. After the spirit guardian knight captain used down 30 bottles of Soul Potions, the Raise Skeleton spell had reached level 15, and now he could now summon 7 skeletons.

The spirit guardian knight captain had become entirely different from the other spirit guardian knights. Not only was his body a lot more muscular, but the spirit wolf under it had also gotten a lot bigger. It was almost Black Wind’s size.

Abel’s fighting power would increase with the 2 new summons. With 7 spirit guardian knights, Abel would no longer have to summon spirit wolves. The ‘Fire Enchantment’ was too mana consuming to support so many summons. He couldn’t just keep relying on those Full Recovery Potions in a long battle.

The level 6 Fire Enchantment required 30 points of mana. But since Abel was using it as a rank below, that would double the consumption, and he would use 60 points of mana. The duration of the spell was 64 seconds, so Abel would need to exhaust 60 points of mana on the Fire Enchantment for each summon every 4 minutes. With 7 spirit guardian knights, 5 ravens, 1 Poison Creeper, that was already 780 points of mana every 4 minutes, so it was better to get rid of those spirit wolves. They were not that useful for him these days anyway.

Abel arrived in the Black Smith’s Guild and started to make some new armors for the newly summoned spirit guardian knights. He realized that the considerably very heavy 100 pounds iron hammer felt like nothing to him, even under 50 points of force. He signed. It seemed like he would need an even heavier one.

With his newly gained strength, it took him only half a day to forge 2 full sets of armor. He finally felt like he was adapting to this new strength.

Looking at the 7 spirit guardian knights in front of him, Abel regretted he didn’t get the chance to learn the ‘Skeleton Mastery.’ With his current Raise Skeletons being level 15, if he had learned the Skeleton Mastery, their power would have doubled already.

Although he was using large amounts of magic gear to help those spirit guardian knights increase their power, those things could only go so far with it. On the other hand, a corresponding spell could increase the overall health points and damage of the skeletons in a more well-rounded way.

There was no point regretting anyway; maybe he would have a chance to learn it in the future. He hadn’t encountered many Deities, but he would have the opportunity when get got close to the Orcs. He would have a lot of opportunities to find the formula for ‘Skeleton Mastery’ by that time.

Black Wind was next. As the front line of Abel’s team, it encountered the most danger. It had been a long time since its last level up, so maybe it was about time.

Actually, Black Wind had already grown desperate when it saw that its owner had given the spirit guardian knight captain bottle after bottle of Soul Potion. It was not stupid; he knew his current abilities were no longer the best compared to the other summons.

The last level up had turned it into the fastest mount in the Holy Continent, but now it realized Flying Flame was even faster. That was quite a significant pressure.

The moment was it saw its owner waving at it with Soul Potion in his hand, he quickly dashed forward with lightning speed.

Abel had concluded after Black Wind’s last level up with the Soul Potion, that it was best for a spiritual beast to fully master their new ability before leveling up again through the Soul Potion.

That was why both Flying Flame and White Cloud were not on the list for Soul Potion’s this time. They had just leveled up not long ago, but it had been a while for Black Wind. Those hell creatures would just keep getting stronger from now on, so he needed Black Wind to be stronger as well.

5 bottles of Soul Potions had put Black Wind to sleep. Every single strand of fur on its body began to dance among the wind. Sometimes they would tense up, and sometimes they would relax again.

Abel watched it. This level up was extremely smooth; there were no rissk at all. Soon the sky was getting dark, and Abel was getting tired.

Abel sat within his intermediate mana gathering circle with 2 blue howling rabbit crystal cores. It was not that he didn’t want a higher quality crystal core, but with his current rank as a beginner wizard, those gold crystal cores were way too powerful for him to handle.

Maybe no one in the Holy Continent would have a better training condition than Abel. The mana amongst the surrounding atmosphere was so thick it was almost like fog, and he even had 2 fresh crystal cores on him. It was no wonder he felt a noticeable increase in power with each meditation.

After one hour of meditation, he stood up. By now, Black Wind was already waiting for him.

“Black Wind, you leveled up?” Said Abel gently patting Black Wind.

Black Wind lifted its head and high and confident;y nodded. He was now an intermediate Spiritual Beast. That was not bad, even among actual spiritual Spiritual Beasts. A mount wolf was supposed to be a spiritual beast, and it had already reached this level in such a short time. No wonder it was looking so satisfied with itself.

“Don’t be arrogant. What ability did you get?” Said Abel with a laugh, as he gently slapped it on the head.

Black Wind asked Abel to take the mounting system off it’s back through the soul chain, and Abel did just that. This mounting system had been on Black Wind’s back for a long time; it was there ever since Abel had laid eyes on it.

Afterwards, Black Wind gave his body a little shake, trying to get used to this new feeling. Then, he signaled Abel to jump on.

A mounting system was not really that important to Abel. By now, his body had grown so balanced; he could move freely on the back of Black Wind even without it.

The moment when Abel jumped on, black smoke began to emerge under him. Suddenly a new mounting system emerged a much more comfortable one.

“That’s it?” Abel asked in slight disappointment. This wouldn’t do much to him, but he was not going to stress about it. All he needed form Black Wind was speed anyway; anything else was extra.

Upon hearing it’s owner’s disappointment, Black Wind howled. Suddenly, that black smoke emerged again, but this time it was a lot bigger, and it formed a giant shield in front of it.

Abel gave this shield a little examination, it shouldn’t have a problem holding up standard swords or spears, and it could even absorb a bit of combat qi. Maybe this shield had some unique ability, but he would leave it to future battles to test it out.

At last Black Wind told Abel the good news through the soul chain. It could use ‘Telekinesis’ 5 times per day now.

This news was a lot more satisfying to Abel than the weird shield. Before, he would only use Black Wind’s Telekinesis ability in the most crucial times since it could only use it once per day, but now he could use it a lot more.
