Chapter 186 Kill For Me
"No… no, that's not true. Don't trust him!" Carrol shouted. By that point, he no longer knew where to run. One side of the cave was blocked by an uncertain amount of wizards, while the other hand was filled wizards from the Duchy of Keyen, who believed he had betrayed them.
"Don't worry, Carol, we have a lot of wizards on our side. All the exits of the valley are surrounded. They can not go anywhere, so all you need to do now is to try and force them out," Abel shouted again.
"Go to hell, Carrol!"
"I know we couldn't trust this bastard!"
"Filthy pig!"
"Kill him!"
At that moment, low ranking wizards had thrown a 'fireball' straight towards Carrol. Carrol quickly jumped towards the ground. Afterward, a scream of agony emerged. An arrow had penetrated that low ranking wizard.
Even though Carrol had dodged the 'fireball' attack, he still hurt himself pretty badly on some rocks as he jumped towards the ground. He was now laying on the floor was his mouth wide opening, relentlessly trying to breathe in oxygen.
"Nice job Carrol. Another killed. Just keep up the good work, force more of them out." Abel's shout had filled the cave again.
"Let's drag Carrol to hell with us!" After seeing two fellow members being shot to death, those low ranking wizards realized one thing. Their enemy was someone was a supremely long-distance bow, shooting them down from someplace they couldn't see. Even if they had a 'frozen armor' to protect them, it would still be very hard for them to run out the cave in one take. For all they could know, countless wizards might be waiting for them outside. All of a sudden, the wizards in the cave had become hopeless, and the idea of dragging Carrol along with them to hell came into their mind.
The second most powerful wizard in that ground wizards in the cave was a rank 4 wizard. He put on a 'frozen armor' and peeked his head out to attack Carrol. An 'ice bolt' shot out from his hand. The moment Carrol began to dodge, he threw out 2 extra fire attack rune signs straight towards where Carrol was dodging
Carroll was sick of being attacked again and again at that point. He got no choice but to fight back. He began to despise those stupid bastards in the cave. Couldn't they see those people outside was intentionally trying to trigger them?
At that exact moment, he also threw out 2 fire rune signs himself. The 4 rune signs collided in midair and exploded. 'Ice bolt' normally moved very slow, so Carrol could just dodge them easily.
Since the wizards in the cave had already made their move, there was no way they will let Carrol go this easily. 2 low ranking wizards stuck their bodies out again and shot 2 'fireball' towards Carrol. By that point, Horace had also poked his head out with a 'frozen armor' on his body as he unleashed a 'charging bolt' attack. Electric arcs flashed the gaps of the rocks. To his surprise, Horace realized that it was way harder to dodge a 'charging bolt' attack on these rocky surfaces than flat ground. The 'charging bolt' was almost completely hidden between the rocks as it moved towards Carrol.
As Carrol was still dodging the 'iceball,' he saw another 2 'fireball' coming his way. He immediately threw out 2 more fire rune signs to ignite it. From his face, Carrol was very, very hurt in his heart as he threw those dire rune signs out. However, at that exact moment, an electric arc emerged from under. The strike was on point, the electric arc hit Carrol directly on his feet and traveled up his body.
"Ah!" Carrol let out a scream of agony. Although the 'charging bolt' was not powerful, it had a numbing effect as he fell on the ground, his whole body vibrating in electricity. Afterward, a 'fireball' hit his body.
The greedy Carrol had finally got what he deserved. As he lay on the ground, he mumbled to himself, " I still have a defense rune sign, I still have a defense rune sign!"
"Ah!" Another low ranking wizard in the cave without a 'frozen armor' was shot dead by Abel with his Harry's bow. By this point, he had not used a single spell, and he had already killed 3 low ranking wizards, as well as letting Carrol died in the cave.
There were still 4 low ranking wizards in the cave. They hid behind the cave, wouldn't dare to come out at all. It was already afternoon by that time. Once the sky gets dark, they could use the dark break out to escape.
Abel sat on the back of Black Wind, standing on a huge rock above the valley exit. As he looked towards the cave in the distance, a cold smirk emerged from his face.
"Black Wind!" Abel gently whispered, but Abel understood what he meant immediately. It began to viciously run towards the cave. Its speed was crazy fast, yet it made no sound.
Black Wind had arrived at the mouth of the cave, which was about a few hundred meters from the 4 low ranking wizards. It was only by that point a low ranking wizard had heard a sound. He carefully poked out his head, but the only thing he could see was an arrow flying directly towards his eye. He let out a scream of agony as the arrow penetration directly through his skull.
Upon hearing the scream of that low ranking wizard, the other 3 low ranking wizards were certain that someone else had entered the cave. They knew they had no choice at that point; they had to fight for their lives.
Horace put on his 'frozen armor' again behind the big rock and got his 'charging bolt' pattern ready. The moment before his 'charging bolt' was ready; he dashed out from behind the rock. He unleashed the 'charging bolt' and electric arcs filled between the gaps of the rocks again.
At the same time, another rank 4 wizard had also unleashed his 'frozen armor' and threw out the fire rune sign in his hand.
However, Horace was not as fast as Abel. The moment when Horace dashed out from behind the rock, Abel's 'fireball' was already flying right towards him. Abel's quicken unleashed 'fireball' landed on Horace's 'Frozen armor' with intense speed and directly shattered it. But it didn't stop there; it continued to drill into Horace's body and exploded.
"Ah!" Horace was rolling around on the ground, screaming in pain. He wanted to stop the fame on his body, but those frames from a fire spell were no joke. There was no way it could be stopped that easily. Slowly, Horace's scream got softer and softer in the burning flame.
The moment before Horace died, he still thought to himself, why is this 'fireball' spell so powerful. It doesn't seem like it was from a young wizard at all. Instead, it was more like an old novice who had been in a plateau for many years. Of course, the 'frozen armor' had its limit, but it definitely wouldn't be shattered that easily by a single 'fireball.' Only a rank 5 or above 'fireball' could do this.
The electric arcs on the ground and the fire rune signs were getting close to Abel, but the speed of these spells was nothing compared to the speed of Black Wind. It hopped back 10 meters in a flash and easily dodged all the spells.
Since Abel had fought against many official wizards, he realized the biggest difference between a novice wizard and an official wizard was that they could not focus on their power of the will. All they could do was use their eyes to aim, which was almost useless against a speedy mount like Black Wind. This speed was impossible to touch him.
Afterward was another easily killing. It was impossible for that rank 4 wizards to dodge the quicken 'fireball,' and the fire rune sign he threw out afterward could not match the speed of Black Wind at all. He could only passively try to ignite Abel's 'fireball.' But don't forget, Abel's 'fireball' was quicken, so he could unleash 4 of them continuously. By that, the rank 4 wizard had given up, as he became engulfed in flame in a flash.
"Come, our, you are last!" Abel called.
After some time, there was still no reply, so Abel rode Black Wind to the back of the rock. He discovered that low ranking wizards had died already. It seemed like he had been scared to death. His lifeless looking face was filled with terror staring at another wizard who had been shot through the head by Abel's arrow.
Abel signed to himself, how could people like this be a wizard. Killing unrelated ordinary citizens was ok but scared to death the moment he saw his mates getting killed. If this kind of wizard needed to fight against the orcs, they might surrender before they even have the chance to fight.
"Camille, It's Abel." Abel ignited his identity card and connected with Camille.
"What's up, Abel" the voice of Camille came from his identity card.
"I discovered 7 low ranking wizards in Lenida mountain," Said Abel to Camille.
"Hold up, wait for me. I'll call Carlos and the others to go there immediately," Camille quickly replied.
"No need, they already died," Abel said.
"Abel, you said you would wait for me before attacking," The voice of Camille was so loud that Abel couldn't help but move his identity card away from his ears.

Chapter 187 Thank you
"Wait for us. Carlos and I will be there in a second. Don't leave okay?" Camille gently asked Abel after screaming at him.
"No worries, I'll wait for you guys here." Abel did not have a single bit of information in regards to the other wizards from the Duchy of Keyen. It was already late, and the sky would be completely dark by the time he reached the other mine, so he thought to might as well wait for others here.
After Abel disconnected with Camille, he ignited his identity card again.
"Uncle Sam, Its Abel." Said Abel as soon as he got connected again.
"Abel, I've been worrying about you. Why didn't you go together with your teammates?" The voice of Wizard Sam emerged from his identity card.
"Uncle Sam, there's something I want to talk to you about." Said Abel hesitantly as he gazed at the dead body of Carrol on the ground.
"Abel, what happened?" Wizard Sam quickly asked. He could hear that Abel's voice sounded a little weird,
"Carrol died, he died in a civil war with the wizards from the Duchy of Keyen," Said Abel after thinking about how he should structure his words.
"Carrol died?" Wizard Sam had known Carrol for 10 years. A cold sensation dawned on his heart when he heard that Carrol had died. But then, He thought of what Abel had said again and called "civil war? A civil war with the Duchy of Keyen?"
"Yeah, he called me on his identity and told me to meet up with him on Lenida mountain. However, when I arrived, he and 7 wizards from the Duchy of Keyen was already there waiting for me there." Abel lowered his voice and gave a simple description of what just happened.
"Carrol was such an idiot. How could he do that." Said Wizard Same with a mixture of anger and sadness.
"Uncle Sam, please come here and take away the dead body of Carrol. He had got killed in battle, and I don't want Mr. Yveline to be sad." Abel heard that Wizard Yveline cared about him a lot, so he didn't want to affect his status.
"Thank you, Abel" of course. Wizard Sam knew that Abel didn't have to do this. What he had done was showing respect to him and his teacher Wizard Yveline.
After the call was disconnected, Abel moved the dead body of Carrol to aside. He didn't search him. Instead, he found a shirt and covered the dead body.
Afterward, he stacked the other 7 dead bodies to the side and took out all the things on their body.
"Peasants!" Abel exclaimed as he threw the things in his portal bag. There was not a single defense rune sign among these 7 wizards, only 10 fire and ice rune sign. He gathered up the magic gold cards into a pile. These things were useless you couldn't get the money out of them, let's just bring it back to his teacher and see.
Abel found a slightly smoother rock, took out a high leg crystal glass, and poured half a glass of red wine in. He then sat on the rock, slowly enjoying the wine while looking over the view on this rocky mountain. Even without the dead bodies, the view here would still be unique.
In the past, Abel would rarely drink red wine, and he always just drink fruit juice. However, ever since he realized the red wine combined through the Horadric cube was good for his body, he was hooked on it.
As Black Wind was looking at Abel enjoying sip and sip of red wine by his side, it's curiosity got the best of him. It leaned it's head towards Abel and gently rub against him. However, its eyes were fixed on the wine glass on its owner's hand as it stuck its tongue out, enjoying the aroma of the red wine in the air.
Seeing the look on Black Wind's face, Abel helplessly poured the rest of the wine in his glass into Its mouth. Seeing the glass was empty, Black Wind happily run. With a heart full of satisfaction, it layed on the ground enjoying the after taste.
Abel took out the 'Ankara rune pen' and a piece of ice crystal core. He then shifted his attention towards the 'Shael' rune he was carving on the crystal core. It was so enjoyable to see the 'Ankara rune pen' fixing up all the little mistakes of his 'Shael' rune.
Not long after, the Abel, who was deep in his carving state, was woken up by a sound of horses running. He put away his 'Ankara rune pen' and his crystal core, as he held Harry's bow in his hand. He was almost sitting at the peak, so he could get a good view of the valley below.
When Abel saw the face of the man, he retracted his Harry's bow and jumped down the big rock as he shouted towards the man, "Uncle Sam!"
"Abel!" Wizard Sam arrived at Abel's side with his horse. He then jumped down from the horse and gave Abel a hug.
"I just had a call with the teacher. He said thank you!" Said Wizard Sam as he let go of Abel.
"Uncle Sam, at first, I was not planning to let Mr. Yveline know about this," Abel said softly.
"Teacher has to know about this. Laden and Toris are in a similar situation with Carrol, so if teacher didn't pay closer attention, we might end up with a second or third Carrol. Thank you so much." Said Wizard Same after he sighed.
"You are my uncle, and I am a member of Yveline magic tower, so no need to say thank you." Said Abel. He still had his Yveline magic tower givings identity card on him, and every month Yveline magic tower would give him givings.
"Yeah, that's clear in my heart. Anyway, I'll bring the dead body of Carrol back first!"
Wizard Sam's heart sank as he saw the dead family's body on the ground covered with a shirt. So many years of friendship had ended just like that in one mistake.
"Let's go home!" Wizard Sam mumbled to the dead body as of Carrol as he placed it on the horse.
Abel did not disturb Wizard Sam. He watched as the shadow of Wizard Sam and his horse disappeared from a turn down the valley, as the sound of the horse running gets fainter and fainter.
Suddenly, Abel was woken up from his thoughts by his vibrating identity card. After he ignited it, the voice of Carlos came from within.
"Haha Abel, your magic cane is too good," Carlos laughed loudly and said from the other side of the identity card.
"What happened, Carlos?" Abel could tell that Carlos was very excited just by his voice.
"Camille and I had also ran into 7 wizards from the Duchy of Keyen. After a big fight, we're okay, and all the 7 wizards from the Duchy of Keyen died." Said Carlos with a voice full of pride, it was almost like he had just become an official wizard.
"Why don't you mention how may rune sign you had used, Carlos you money waster." The voice of Camille came from the other side of the identity card.
"So what, didn't I get all of them back from the body of those bastards?" Carlos tried to justify himself.
"Are you comparing the rune signs of those bastards with the ones we make?" Camille asked again.
"Let me speak. I am also holding the identity card, can you show me some respect!" Abel was irritated by Camille and Carlos's argument. However, he could also tell from this, how they were able to kill the 7 attacking wizards so easily without a single injury. It was through Carlos rune sign wasting strategy with the enhancement of the magic cane.
There were 2 rank 3 wizards in that 7 wizards. The rest of them were below rank 3, so their fighting ability was not strong at all. It was a bad day for them to run into Camille and Carlos.
Camille and Carlos had just got their new supreme magic cane today, and since both of them were rune makers, they would carry around a lot more rune signs than normal wizards. From that point on, the fate of those low ranking wizards was set.
"Where are you guys, I'll go to find you," Abel knew the two wouldn't be able to make it back themselves since there were 7 dead bodies they needed to be taken care of.
Carlos reported to Abel his direction. It was not far from where he was. He gazed at the 7 filthy dead bodies on the ground. He didn't really want to throw them into his own portal bag. After a bit of consideration, he decided to throw them into the space finger joint. He rarely used that thing anyway, the only thing inside it was just some useless poisons.
By the time Abel reached the spot where Carlos had reported with Black Wind, the sky was red. It would be completely dark in a moment. Carlos was sitting on a rock frowning at the dead bodies on the ground, when he saw Abel, he immediately jumped up with excitement, waving his hand.
On the other hand, Camille acted like she didn't know Carlos as she said to Abel with a smile, "Abel, you arrived at last."
" Camille, you guys are too good, not a single wizard had escaped." Said Abel as he stared at the 7 dead bodies on the ground. Of course, there were some burned up bodies of horses as well.
"Yeah sure, this Carlos guy was crazy. He even burned the 7 wizards along with their horses." Said Camille angrily.
I'm just afraid that if they had a horse, they would be able to escape…." the more Carlos spoke, the softer his voice became.
"Teacher just said we need to bring these dead bodies back ourselves, so how are we going to do that?" Camille asked

"We have Abel, don't we?" Carlos was no longer as stressed as before as he spoke to Abel.
"What do you want me to do?" Abel asked.
"Don't you have a portal bag?" You can help us carry the dead body back." Said Carlos as he pointed towards the dead bodies on the ground.
"Abel, don't listen to him. You can't make your portal bag dirty like that." Camille followed.
"Don't worry Camille; I got another one," Said Abel after hearing the both of them make their jokes.
"Another one, where did you find all these portal things," Said Carlos. He immediately jumped up and held Abel on the shoulders.
"It was a spoil of war from the last time I fought alongside teacher. I only got one; the teacher got 2 portal bags, I think." Abel emphasized when he talked about the 2 portal bags, which made Carlos's eyes wide open like a ball.
Abel took out the space finger joint and shoved the 7 dead bodies inside. Camille stuck out her hand curiously, so Abel playfully placed the space finger joint on her hand.
"That thing is so disgusting!" Although this was what Camille had said, she still rolled around the space finger joint on her hand and admired it.
"Camille, what would you say is the teacher's favorite thing?" Carlos asked out of the blue.
"What?" Camille did not understand what he meant by that all of a sudden.
"What's the teacher's favorite thing?" Carlos asked again, this time in a more serious tone.
"How do I know, lately he's been holding a glass of red wine every day, so maybe he really likes red wine," Said Camille hesitantly. She then asked Carlos back, "Why are you asking this question?"
"No… nothing!" Said Carlos, sounding a little forced.
"Ooh, I know now. You want the teacher's portal bag," Camille knew Carlos all too well after living with him for all these years. So, of course, she knew what car was thinking by seeing his facial expression.
"No, I'm not!" Carlos made an excuse and then proceeded to say, "Where you think they sell the best red wine?"
"If I remember it correctly, the brand of red wine teacher normally drink is from Coder Wine house. You can go buy some," Camille said after thinking for a bit.
"Camille, you have such a good eye. I'll go to Coder wine house to buy some when we are going back," Said Carlos in excitement.
dre
"Cough cough!" Abel coughed twice and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone, "the Coder Winehouse you seem to be talking about is under my name.
"Oh! You're too rich. I know the wine from Coder wine house is always in high demand, so I'm not even going to spend a single cent now. Just give me 2 bottles," said Carlos, with eyes fixed on Abel.
Camille face-palmed herself; she could not stare at Carlos directly anymore.
"Ok, I'll give you 2 bottles." Said Abel as he took out 2 personal bottles of red wine from his portal bag and placed it on Carlos's hand.
Carlos took the red wines and hugged them close to his chest, as though he was holding a portal bag.
"Let's go back!" Said Camille. She didn't even bother to look at Carlos as she turned her head directly towards Abel.
On the way back, Abel and Camille exchanged knowledge on etching. Black Wind had also held back its impose, and walked side by side with Camille's war horse. Carlos told his war horse to follow behind them, not sure what that guy was thinking.
Both Black Wind and Camille's war horse were familiar with the road back home. Therefore even though the sky was dark, they still decided to make their way back to the magic tower other than finding a hotel somewhere.
It was already midnight when they got back to the magic tower. They hopped off their mounts in front of the magic tower, but Abel suddenly heard Black Wind howl in dissatisfaction. That was weird, so he connected to the soul chain to hear what Black Wind had to say.
"Wine, wine." Black Wind had been repeating this word all this time.Read more chapter on our vipnovel.com
Abel turned his head back. Under the light of the magic tower, he could see Carlos holding 2 empty wine bottles, shaking unstably. Good thing he didn't fell off his horse during the ride.
"Carlos, you drank up all the wines you were going to give to the teacher. How are you going to get your portal bag now, huh?" Camille asked with a smile.
"What portal bag, wine good, wine good!" Carlos mumbled to himself as he held up the empty bottle laughing like an idiot.
"That's it. Carlos will not have a good time tomorrow if the teacher sees him like this," Before Camille could even finish her sentence, a big smile had already covered her face.
Abel stepped up and helped Carlos to get off his horse. He snatched the 2 empty bottles from Carlos's hand and threw it on the ground. With one arm holding Carlos up, Abel said to Camille "I'll get him to his room. You can go rest first."
Abel knocked on the big door on level 3, Carlos's Wizard follower Page opened the door just to see a drunk Carlos, sloppy as a puddle of mud. He couldn't help himself but called "Mr., what happened?"
"Nothing, he just drank too much. The kind of wine he drank was not harmful. He should be fine after a good night of sleep." Said Abel as he transferred Carlos on to the hands of Page.
Abel was very confident in red wines. It would definitely not hurt the body even if you drink too much. So he only casually remained Page, before returning to his room.
Abel didn't have the guts to go into the Rogue encampment here, so that was another night wasted. But still, the meditation session could not be missed.
Early the next morning, when Abel and Finkle were just walking towards the first floor, and they could already hear Carlos's huge voice.
"Haha, I ranked up, I ranked up !" The ear-shattering laugh of Carlos filled the peaceful magic towers.
Camille sat far away on the other side of the table, quietly eating her breakfast.
"Abel, Finkle, I've ranked up." When Carlos saw the two, he immediately ran up and gave them a hug.
Abel gently turned his body, casually dodging the hug of Carlos. However, Finkle was not as lucky. He already deep in the hug of Carlos.
"Come come, and I'll tell you about my rank up experience. It's good for you." Carlos enthusiastically dragged Finkle to a seat and began to rant about how he was able to increase his rank so quickly.
"How did Carlos rank up over the night?" Abel softly asked Camille.
"When I woke up this morning, he said it was because he drank too much yesterday. He woke up in the middle of the night, realizing his mana was full, so he didn't sleep and slept the night finish filling in the rank 4 wizard pattern." Said Camille in a somewhat confused tone.
Abel was not surprised that Carlos could fill in a rank 4 wizard pattern in one night. He had been trying to figure that out since he became rank 3, so it should be easy for him to fill it in. But what Abel was surprised about was that Carlos said it would take months before a person could rank up after they filled in the pattern, how could he rank up just like that?
Suddenly the shadow of a human flashed in front of their eyes. Wizard Morton appeared on the first floor. They immediately stood up and bowed.
"You guys can go back to your rooms," said Wizard Morton to the few wizard followers.
After the few wizard followers left, Wizard Morton said to Abel in the slightly dark facial expression. "I told you not to share your red wine with others. Did you forget?"
"Yes, it's my mistake, teacher," said Abel with his head down.
"Teacher, that…" Carlos stood up but didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
"Carlos, speak clearly. Stop chocking on your words" Wizard Morton criticized Carlos
"Yes teacher, that red wine was not for other people, Abel gave it to me to give it to you. But halfway, as we were coming back yesterday, I wanted to taste what kind of wine do teacher you like, so I took a sip. The taste was too wonderful, so I couldn't stop and drank all of them," Carlos told Wizard Morton everything that happened yesterday in one breath, he could not let Abel take the blame for no reason.
"Do you think you are gifted enough to rank up a few months earlier?" Said Wizard Morton staring coldly at Carlos.
"Hehe," Carlos scratched his head in embarrassment.
"The wine Abel gave you was made personally by himself with a secret formula. It has the ability to adjust your physical ability. You drank too much yesterday, so your body was subconsciously meditating. The red wine adjusted your physical ability and delivered all your excess mana for your meditation. If I didn't help you find relief from it yesterday, you would already be dead from excess mana," Wizard Morton roared at Carlos.
Carlos's face immediately went white, he then stood up and quickly bowed and said: "thank you, teacher, for saving my life!"
"Now listen up, never mention Abel's red wine again. Those things are very good for the body of wizards, even for high ranking wizards." Said Wizard Morton gazing at the 3 of them.
"Yes teacher!" Camille and Carlos quickly replied.

Chapter 189 Skeleton Reborn
"Teacher, since my red wine such an ability, how about I provide some of them for the magic tower every month?" Said Abel after the thought for a bit.
"All right, Abel, I know you love your friends. Can you give them one bottle a month?" Of course, Wizard Morton wanted his disciples to have the best resources, and Abel's red wine was perfect.
"No problem, I'll prepare some when I got back" Abel nodded his head and said with certainty.
"Oh, also, if you have some extra red wine, give a few bottles to both Warren and Eury first. These red wine really are good for ranking up. Said Wizard Morton after a bit of hesitation.
"Teacher, I can give out my portion to the two of them," Carlos quickly disrupted.
"Teacher, me as well," Camille followed.
"Don't worry guys, I can provide the red wine for everyone," Said Abel waving his hand in front of Camille and Carlos.
The teleportation circles which had been closed up due to the Duchy of Keyen's attack had been reopened again. Although there was still one wizard who was not found, the teleportation circle could not be closed for too long just for a single low ranking wizard. The investigation department had already doubled down on their investigation, but that low ranking Wizard was still able to vanish from Bakong city. Some unknown forces might be at play.
Morton Magic tower had gained a lot of publicity from this attack. 14 out of the 15 low ranking wizards were all killed by 3 rank 5 and below wizards from Morton Magic tower. This news spread beyond the Duchy of Carmel to the surrounding Duchies, which put a smile on Wizard Morton's face every day.
Before the night fell, Abel had gone back to his mansion in Triumph boulevard. He had dinner with Loraine and went back to his room with Black Wind.
The first thing Abel did wasn't igniting the Tome of Town Portal. Instead, he took out a bottle of 'soul potion' from his Kong Kong Spirit portal bag. He then asked Black Wind through the soul chain, "Are you sure you wanna drink it?"
Black Wind stared at the 'soul potion.' Then replied through the soul chain, "Drink… drink!"
Abel thought since he had drunk the "soul potion" before, Black Wind should be fine. What was the worst thing that could happen? This thing only had benefits.
Black Wind opened its mouth, allowing Abel to pour the 'soul potion' in. Suddenly, Black Wind made a yearning noise and fell directly to sleep on the floor.
However as Black Wind was sleeping, Abel noticed some electric arcs popping out form Black Wind's body from time to time. These electric arcs continued to disappear and appear among the hair of Black Wind.
Could the 'soul potion' allow Black Wind to gain a spell?
According to the 'Morton observation record,' a normal soul beast did not have the ability to do spells, only an official ranked soul beast can. These official soul beasts almost had the same attacking ability as a wizard. It was simple for them to unleash their spell, as the spell originated from within. They didn't need to say any spells or draw any patterns. The pattern of their spell existed within their crystal core. Therefore, every single official should beast had a crystal core, unlike normal soul beast. You might not find a single crystal core from those normal ones, even if you kill a hundred of them.
Seeing what was happening to Black Wind, it might be able to rank up to an official soul beast.
Abel did not think about bringing Black Wind to the Rogue encampment. He only quietly sat by its side, carefully looking after it. The electric arcs got less and less, in the end, disappeared completely.
The moment all the electric arcs disappeared. Black wind opened its eyes. He looked and Abel and gently leaned against his side.
Abel asked Black Wind through the soul chain, "Did you grasp any spells?"
"No, I didn't grasp any!" Black Wind replied through the soul chain.
Abel was shocked. Black Wind had gotten smarter; his sentences were a lot more well structured now. It seemed like he still needed more 'soul potion' if he had enough. Black Wind might not only be able to grasp a spell, but also get a lot smarter.
Not only Black Wind, but White Cloud would also get more powerful if it had taken the 'soul potion.' Abel had always felt like he had done too little for White Cloud. It was impossible to use the 'mount enhancement spell' on it since it was so huge. But now, he finally found a rank increasing potion that was suitable for it to use. Therefore, Abel would need a lot more 'soul potions.'
Although it was already midnight, Abel did not waste any time. There was still enough time for him to go into the Rogue encampment to kill for a few days.
In the next 10 days, Abel spent his day etching rune signs, while practicing multitasking with its 'frozen armor.' At night, he would go into the Dark Word to kill.
Ever since Abel had woken up from his flash of realization through the 'soul potion,' it took him 8 more bottles of 'soul potion' until he could finally revert the 'skeleton summon' spell to its original version. All the 'soul potion' he got these days from whipping clean those infernal creatures in Blood Moor was in his stomach. Other than 4 bottles, his power of the will had expended to 27, while his mana had also reached 270.
After 8 realizations, The 'skeleton summon' spell had become a new spell' skeleton reborn.' It stripped out all the torture and pain the owner of the skeleton's body needed to go through. He only preserved the part where the skeleton was able to summon from a dead body. As long as that skeleton still had life in them, it could be summoned.
Abel had simulated this 'skeleton reborn' spell many times during his realization session. He realized that this spell was different from any other spells he had learned so far. The skeleton reborn' spell used his mana to draw a magic pattern. Then it could control the death qi to unleash the spell. However, all the other spells he had learned before used substances to unleash the spell. It seemed like these were completely different systems. Maybe that was why it had taken him 8 bottles of 'soul potion' to achieve this low ranking 'skeleton reborn'
spell.
"Black Wind, let's go!" Said Abel to Black Wind, who was resting at the side.
As soon as Black Wind heard a command from its owner, It knew it could fight again. It immediately stood up with enthusiastically and rushed to the side of its owner and lowered its body, bagging its owner to get on.
Black Wind speeded out of the Rogue encampment with Abel on its back and entered Blood Moor. Blood Moor was no longer filled with inferno creatures like before. After these days of mass killing and clean up, the inferno creatures could no longer be seen anywhere in the patches of land around the Rogue Encampment.
After around an hour of charging, Abel had arrived on the place where he had cleaned up those inferno creatures last time. If he just continues going forward a bit more, he would arrive at the place where those inferno creatures had formed.
A single zombie had attracted the attention of Abel. In a flick of his finger, a 'firebolt' flew out. The zombie was directly struck into flame and fell on the ground, but it didn't die immediately.
Abel couldn't help but shake its head. His low ranking spells were still too weak in the Dark World. He followed up with another 'fireball' to finish off the zombie. After he saw its soul fly towards his Horadric cube, he began mumbling the simplified spell 'skeleton reborn'.
A black beam of light suddenly shot out from the burnt body of the zombie. The surrounding spooky death qi began to gather around the dead body. At that time, Abel also felt his body being affected by the death qi. There was too much death qi in the Air World; a lot more than he had expected.
Abel felt his whole body getting cold, seemed like the death qi was eating at his body. He thought of that deity of orcs' dead body after it was surrounded by a magic robe by many years. At first, he thought that worgen was born this ugly, but now he knew the reason.
Dead air could consume the body of a wizard. This harmonized their body with the death qi, which turns them into a ghost-like zombie.
A horrific chill ran down his spine. If Abel knew this would happen to him by using the 'skeleton Reborn' spell, he would not even try to practice it.
As Abel was regretting this horrible mistake, his golden combat qi had an effect. It ignited itself all of a sudden and filled his body with golden light. It began to ablate the death qi, which gave out sounds of something screaming
Under the influence of the death qi, the dead body on the ground began to vibrate. Suddenly "bang!" The flesh flew out from the body, leaving only the skeleton.
Click click* under the clicking sound of the joints, skeletons could hardly drag itself up from the ground. This was skeleton without weapons, so Abel felt like he could just heat it up with a single hand. It was too weak.

Chapter 190 Rib Bone
Abel really began to doubt if he had done the 'skeleton reborn' spell correctly. He had drunk up 8 bottles of 'soul potion' and almost became a zombie because of this weak little skeleton. Was this it? Was all his sacrifice just for this weak chicken skeleton?
Why not, let's just take out the Horadric and test it out. A new skeleton sign already appeared on the skill tree. He focused on the sign with his power of the will. Some data appeared.
Skeleton reborn
Allow you to revive a skeleton from a dead creature to fight with you.
Mana consume: 5
Skeleton amount: 1
Attack: 1-2
Defense: 15
Lifeline: 21
Current ability rank: 0
Next rank: 1/5000
This skeleton only had 1-2 attack, what was he going to do what that? Use its bone to bang it on a drum? Abel face palmed himself.
But since the skeleton was already summoned, why not test out its actual fighting ability. Since this skeleton didn't have any weapons, Abel decided to take out a magic big shield and magic sword from his Kong Kong spirit portal bag.
This skeleton was very easy to control. After the 'skeleton reborn' spell was completed, A little bit of power of the will was taken out of Abel and cast it on the skeleton. With the 27 power of the will that Abel had currently, this skeleton could not go beyond 270 meters from Abel. Once it did, the skeleton would get out of control and attack on its own. Of course, this out of control skeleton would still fight alongside the person who summoned it, but it would attack any enemy that got in its way.
Through this little bit of power of the will, Abel could control this skeleton to do some simple tasks. Just like now, for example. Abel handed the magic big shield and magic sword to the skeleton and controlled it to hold the sword in the right hand and the shield on the other.
"Move forward!" Abel was already riding Black Wind very slowly, but the skeleton was even slower. That was the main problem right now.
There was a sea of red in front of them. Abel was so sick of killing those fallen lately. Luckily he still had the Horadric cube to suck up their souls, so he wouldn't have to kill them over and over again.
As soon as Abel entered the fallen camp, the fallen began to roar. The fallen rushed towards Abel, but just before he was about to unleash his 'charging bolt,' which was almost automatic at this point, a weak little shadow had already started running with immense bravery towards the sea of fallen in front of him.
The fallen saw a weak little opponent running towards them, so they roared even louder and surrounded the skeleton.
Seeing the weak little skeleton being surrounded by a sea of fallen, Abel basically gave up on the skeleton's existence. However, this might be a good time to unleash a 'charging bolt.' Abel unleashed 10 quicken 'charging bolt' spells in a roll, forming a sea of electric arcs. Afterward, those electric arcs rushed forward like a wave of the ocean.
Screams filled the air, 10 fallen had been knocked down while all the other ones scattered towards all directions screaming for their lives. To Abel's surprise, that the skeleton was still alive. It seemed like the electric arcs recognized the skeleton. Although a few electric arcs had flashed upon the skeleton, it did not damage it a bit. The electric arcs just continued to move forwards.
The skeleton often chased a fallen with its shield at the front and sword at the back. This was a perfect knight technique and a very familiar one to Abel. Wasn't this the Bennett family's knight's charging technique?
The skeleton counteracted the fallen's strike with its big shield and gently moved its body. The big sword in his hand horizontally slashed towards the waist of the fallen. The fallen did not have any fighting techniques. After it was rumble off by the rebound of the big shield, and the big skeleton sword opened up a long stream of blood mark on the fallen's waist. Before its blood even had the chance to spill out, the fallen was froze up by the ice margin. The skeleton did not miss this opportunity as it continued to strike. Just like that, the skeleton had directly struck the fallen to death.
No wonder why the skeleton didn't die just then. It was protected by the big shield, as well as it's perfect knight's technique. It seemed like this skeleton could still survive for a short while battling against those skill-less fallen.
Could the 'skeleton reborn' spell inherit the close body fighting style of the summoner? That was such a joke. Other than an abomination like Abel, both the body of wizards or deities were consumed by mana. Especially deities, they also needed to withstand the consumption of death qi. There was no way they would have any close body fighting abilities, so no wonder they needed to alter this spell to inherit the ability of the owner of the skeleton.
The skeleton was a little bit more powerful than Abel had expected. Although it could only dash out 1-2 points of attack with every strike, the mana of unleashed by the magic sword on top of the death qi of the skeleton's attack, allowed the skeleton to completely dominate a fallen. Fallen were not immortal beings, so it had to withstand the impact of the death qi as well.
Too bad. If the attack of the skeleton was just a little bit higher, it could be a good helper. The 'skeleton reborn' spell was too much of a hassle. Although it was not hard to find a freshly dead body in Blood Moor, which was a key ingredient, it was very hard to recover mana here.
Nowadays, Abel spent most of his time traveling between the Rogue encampment and battlefield. Although he could use the portal door, it could only last for 5 seconds. It was definitely not enough for Abel to meditate and return.
It seemed like he also needed to spend some time practicing the 'skeleton reborn' spell. If he had a few skeletons and Black Wind by his side, he might be able to meditate in the wild.
Even though Abel was deep in his thoughts, he kept using Black Wind's speed to unleash his 'charging bolt' in the places where most fallen were concentrated. In regards to the singled out fallen, he left it for the skeleton to practice on.
Abel still used his old technique of rounding up the fallen with Black Wind's speed, then unleashed a 'charging bolt' towards them. This would not waste a single electric arc. Since he was already low in mana, every single bit of attack mattered.
After unleashing 40 'charging bolt' continuously, there was not much mana left for Abel. That skeleton had also knocked down a few fallen. That was not a big reward, but it was something, so he urged Black Wind to go back. These days he had been ruthlessly battling. His mana had almost been used up, and the rate of recovery was very slow. Although the wild had been cleaned up a lot, there might still be some leftovers, so Abel didn't want to put his life on the bet.
The portal door opened. Black Wind was used to getting into a portal door, so it rushed towards it after Abel. That skeleton also noticed Abel was getting in the portal door, so it immediately stopped the battle on hand and rushed towards it as well. At the last second, the skeleton stepped its foot in.
After Abel returned to the Rogue encampment, he opened his Horadric cube. Just when he thought he was about to examine the 'skeleton reborn' spell in detail, he was surprised to discover 'skeleton reborn' spell's experience had grown from 1/5000 to 7/5000.
Could the skeleton gain its own experience by killing enemies by itself? If this was the case, then the 'skeleton reborn' spell could really be practiced while killing. After the 'skeleton reborn' spell got more powerful, he could summon another skeleton. Then, the Rogue encampment would be more lively. Although they could not talk, at least they could move. Things were way too lonely here.
"I'll call you Rib Bone!" Said Abel looking at the skeleton in front of him. Since it was his fighting partner, it still deserved a name even as a summoned object. At least it could signify this skeleton existed in this world.
After seeing the color of the sky, Abel decided that it was time to leave the Rogue encampment again. This past 10 days of battle and recovery went by extremely quickly. Abel was so grateful, but when he looked at Rib Bone, he gave out a little sigh. If he brought Rib Bone outside, everyone would know he had learned a deity's spell. He didn't know if it would bring him a lot of trouble, but he was sure that every wizard absolutely hated the deities to their bones.
He would create too much tension if he brought Rib Bone outside. Could he put it in his portal bag? Suddenly, something struck his mind. He reminded of the deity the other day. It had exactly just put he summon object in his space joint. Rib Bone was also a summon object, so it should be able to be put inside as well.
Abel took out space joint and flicked with his power of the will. Just like that, Rib Bone was thrown into the finger joint. His power of will also came into its space finger joint. He saw that Rib Bone stood in the middle, surrounded and nourished by death qi.
At this point, Abel knew a feature of the space finger joint, a feature that even Wizard Morton might not know. In the past, he only thought it was just a normal dimension object. But it had the ability to nourish dead creatures.
