Abe the Wizard

How about directly drawing the ‘ice nova’ spell pattern on to the soul flame of the spirit guardian wizard just like the ice bolt pattern?

Abel reconnected with the spirit guardian wizard through his power of the will and drew out the pattern. However, the pattern vanished as soon as it was drawn.

Abel didn’t believe in the devil playing tricks on him. He spread out his world stone’s ability and began to investigate the soul flame of the spirit guardian wizard.

Soon he realized the ice bolt pattern was made up of some strange energy unique to the soul flame.

Unless someone extracted the strange energy from the ice bolt pattern and drew a new spell pattern with it, the spirit guardian wizard would be able to do so anything other than an ice bolt.

There was a chance Abel could fail, and his spirit guardian wizard would lose its only spell ability. Then he had to summon a new one, and that 100 bottles of soul potion would go to waste.

“But it’s only 100 bottles anyway!” Abel recovered his confidence when he saw those thousands of bottles in his portal.

He wrapped up the ice bolt pattern with his power of the will and slowly tore it from the soul flame. The soul flame was the most vulnerable part of the spirit guardian wizard. It could directly impact its life if the soul flame was damaged.

The spirit guardian wizard would only let Abel do something like this since it was his summon.

Luckily Abel had the world stone ability to maximize his stability, and the extraction was successful.

The last bit of strange energy was locked up in his power of the will, and the soul flame of the spirit guardian wizard was now empty.

Abel could almost draw a spell pattern with his eyes closed at this point. The only challenge was how he could drag out that strange energy into a thin line for drawing and distribute them in the right proportion.

The world stone came in handy again. It was a hassle, but he had perfectly used up all the strange energy when he finished drawing.

“Spirit guardian wizard, do a spell!” Abel commanded.

The spirit guardian wizard flicked the bone made magic staff in its hand. There was no spell pattern, and an ice nova flew towards a tree,

“Haha, I’m a genius!” Abel laughed as he saw the result.

The ice nova was like an enchanted version of the ice bolt. Beginner wizard spells were always much more potent than low-rank wizard spells at the end of the day.

But Abel did not stop. He wanted to swap out the spell once again from the ice nova spell to the ice pole spell. There was one special effect of the ice pole, frozen, and its slow down effect was much stronger as well.

The ice pole was an intermediate wizard spell, and it was used to attack a small group.

Since Abel gained his experience, the process was smooth.

“Spirit guardian wizard, cast an ice pole!” Abel said in command.

The spirit guardian wizard flicked its bone-made magic staff again, and a thick ice pole flashed out, carrying large amounts of cold energy forward.

Abel did not keep trying. The next spell above was the elite blizzard spell. It was extremely complicated, and the strange energy might not be able to support it.

He was already satisfied with the spirit guardian wizard he had. With 9 of them attacking at the same time, Abel could definitely threaten elite wizards.

He summoned 8 more skeletons, wizards, from the corpses, and after some careful selection, he ended up with 1 fire skeleton wizard, 1 poison skeleton wizard, and 6 lightning skeleton wizards.

This was the most suitable combination for him, and he quickly combined them with spirit wolves.

This combination would be most useful in the Central Continent. If the blizzards decided to attack again, only lightning wizards could do the most damage.

Since those spirit guardian wizards could only do one spell, only lightning spells could guarantee a hit rate due to their speed.

He had only kept one of each other elements for diversity.

After using 800 soul potions, Abel finally felt a little hurt.

Only skeletons could tolerate this many soul potions. If he did this to his spiritual beasts, they would have exploded open already.

The soul potions could speed up growth, but all other beings needed time to adjust to their newly gained power.

This was how Abel had ended up with so many soul potions and had enough to cultivate 9 spirit guardian wizards with unlimited spellcasting ability.

Abel picked the firewall spell for the fire spirit guardian wizard. Its power was basically on par with a rank 16 wizard.

Since there were no poison wizard spells, Abel selected the poison explosion from the intermediate priest spells.

Although the poison explosion could not be used without a corpse, the area it covered was so scary its name was well known amongst priests.

The only thing was that poison spells were extremely hard to master, so not many priests were good at using them. The spirit guardian wizard, on the other hand, was born with poison elements. It could cast poison spells as long as it has the spell pattern.

Finally, Abel picked the chain of lightning spell for the lightning spirit guardian wizards. Its lightning power was actually more powerful than a lightning strike. It was just more spread out for mass attack. When those Spirit guardian wizards were fully leveled up, they would have the power of a level 29 chain of lightning.

Which was almost on par with Abel’s own chain of lightning spells.

Most importantly, those spirit guardian wizards were all naturally gifted at lightning spells. Initially, they only had a lightning arc within their soul flame, which was a total waste of their potential.

Abel didn’t know but what he just did was the reason wizards and priests had collaborated, the altered spell.

Of course, the main reason those spirit guardian wizards’ soul flame could support an intermediate spell was because of those soul potions.

The scariest thing about the spirit guardian wizards was that they didn’t need to use their power of the will and mana to cast spells like normal wizards. They could just gather energy from empty space through their soul flame.

By logic, those spirit guardian wizards could cast unlimited amounts of spells without worrying about the power of the will and mana drain.

Abel happily looked at those spirit guardian wizards, but at the same time, he was worried for the spirit guardian knights. Since everyone in the Central Continent loathed knights, he was afraid to even take them out.

You could get a feel of how much people in the Central Continent hated the knights just by looking at their weapons. A Knight’s sword and shield were the most common weapon in the Holy Continent, but they were nowhere to be seen in the Central Continent.

Abel’s spirit guardian knights had perfectly inherited his knight skills, so he couldn’t use them.

But, the spirit guardian wizards might be able to take their place after all.

He put away the spirit guardian wizards and began to clean up.

The next day in the Dark World, he used a medium-light gem for meditation. To his surprise, it was ten times as effective as the normal ones.

During the third day in the Dark World, he used the biggest light gem for meditation. It was 20 times as effective as the normal ones.

Abel did not continue to combine them. If he had unlimited light gems, then the biggest one would be the best.

But he only had 107 medium light gems. Since he couldn’t find a sustainable way to obtain those light gems, using intermediate light gems was the best strategy.

He was meditating in the Dark World anyway, so mana concentration was much denser than the Central Continent. On top of the mana gathering circle, his meditation condition was unimaginable to any wizard in the Central Continent.

…….

“Wizard Godwin, this is what you call revenge?” Wizard Emir gazed at Wizard Godwin with cold eyes.

His life was coming to an end, and he needed large amounts of resources for training. The only way to extend his lifespan was to level up, so he didn’t want to be bothered by his team’s business.

He had given all the authority to Wizard Godwin, but 3 rank 17 wizard were lost in this frontier team of the blizzard in a short period of time. This loss was unacceptable. His team would not be able to go against Holy knights again without any new rank 17 wizards.

Without fighting with the Holy Knights, he would not be able to gain more training resources. Then he would not be able to extend his life. How could he not be angry?

“Captain, Abel is very cunning to the point where it’s a little odd. He was actually not that strong. Our men just fell for his trap!” Wizard Godwin explained and continued to beg for mercy, “Captain, I’ve served you for so long, please help me say some kind words to the headmaster.

He needed Wizard Emir’s support to lessen the punishment. He had helped Wizard Emir gather large amounts of training resources, so he just hoped Wizard Emir could speak up for him.

“He was actually not that strong? Let me see your right hand. Do you think you can hide it just by covering it?” Wizard Emir lowered his voice.

Wizard Godwin’s face was paper white. He had carefully tried to hide the injury in his hand by covering it with a fake hand. However, that still didn’t escape wizard Emir.

“As for wizard Abel, he is no longer your business. Headmaster Marz will help you treat your hand!” Wizard Emir added.

When Wizard Godwin heard the name Headmaster Marz his eyes were filled with fear. He yelled, “No, Captain. We can fight! I’ve already contacted the best puppet maker from the dwarfs. Just give me a few years, I can regain my power!”

Headmaster Marz was a rank 20 wizard. He had reached the pinnacle of the elite wizards. There was no more hope for him to level up, nothing more to fulfill.

Therefore he spent all his time studying the body. He wanted to find a way forward, and the body of another elite wizard would be the best resource for him.

Any wizard in the blizzard who did something wrong would become his study resource. As soon as Headmaster Marz stepped outside of his magic tower, his prisoners couldn’t escape.

Wizard Godwin had lived for almost 1000 years, but he still had a long way to go. He didn’t want to die, and begging Wizard Emir was his last hope.

When wizard Godwin was still begging, a shadow appeared beside him and said with a raspy voice, “Wizard Emir, I’ll take it from here!”

Suddenly Wizard Godwin felt his wizard core being suppressed by an immense force.

Wizard Godwin might be able to withstand a rank 20 wizard’s suppression under normal circumstances, but he was on the verge of breaking down. His right hand had taken a lot out of him.

Headmaster Marz had arrived. His body was dried up like a priest, almost like a dead body.

He gently tapped on Wizard Godwin’s, and Wizard Godwin immediately froze. As a rank 18 wizard skilled in ice spells, he would not die immediately, but his face looked hopeless under the ice.
