Abe the Wizard

Chapter 1004 - Trade



Chapter 1004: Trade

So, Lorraine told the elders about the two vacant spots when she returned to the temple yesterday. She told them exactly what Abel told her about. Once she became an official Sainte, Master Bennett would be ready to help out big druids who wished to promote. What Abel didn’t expect was how absolutely satisfied they were with the news. They all thought that such a good offer would not come without a cost. They took no time to bargain for more. In just one night, they decided the people they wanted to bring.

The two were here now. One was Druid Lucia, and the other was an older female who seemed to have reached the end of her life. As fast as the bid druids came to their decision, one would imagine that the debate yesterday was quite heated. Everyone wanted to live longer, but only those with the right conditions became candidates for this limited opportunity. Druid Lucia became one because of her close ties with Loraine and Abel. For the other druid, she got it because she needed it the most. She was the oldest among them all, and she had no time to wait.

No, there were no male elves inside the temple to compete. The temple was a location reserved for the female druids. Apart from those like Poly, the temple was where all the female druids to head to. The good thing about that was that the Goddess would personally drop her blessing once every few decades, which actually made them more likely to have a higher rank than their male counterparts. The rate was about twenty percent if the Goddess was to help them herself. Unlike the tree of life, the goddess would take a bit more time since she was dropping the blessings through indirect contact. This was kind of why the elders were still very ambitious to hear about promotion.

Loraine introduced the druid beside her, “She is Druid Beula. Please help her out, alright? She’s been really good to me as my history mentor.”

Druid Beula seemed really eager to extend her lifespan, “Excuse me, honourable Master Bennett, but please help this old woman out.”

Abel smiled and bowed, “I won’t back down a promise from Loraine; not when it’s about her teacher.”

Druid Beula stood up and spoke humbly, “Honourable Master Bennett, I’ve heard that you’re looking for an armor piece for the Beamon giant beast. The great Moon Goddess has something that might interest you. Here, the elders had me bring it to you as a gift.”

Not surprising, given how all three of Abel’s followers went to spread out the news. In just two days, the whole central continent knew about his wish to get a new armor set. Most people knew, but having a ten-meter tall high-quality piece was not an easy job. He did expect the Goddess Temple to have something that might satisfy him, but he wasn’t really expecting that they’d give away something that might’ve well belonged to the ancient times. And it wasn’t just something from an excavation site, either. As a fierce competitor to the dwarves in resourcefulness, the elves would often inherit historical items from their direct ancestors. If the goddess needed to, they could turn their gears into military resources at any given. This meant that most things they possessed were already much better than what most men would have.

So right now, what Druid Beula was handing over was a portal bag of 40 cubic meters. That’s about the best of its kind. As Abel looked inside, he could see a giant armor set, a helmet, a body suit, war shoes, and gloves. It was really enough to cover up the entire body.

“And,” he couldn’t help but to speak out, “This is a divine item!”

Druid Beula explained, “This is something the great Moon Goddess forged herself, honourable Master Bennett. It can withstand any attack below legendary rank. If there is any damage, it can do is to regenerate the broken parts by absorbing nature energy.”

Abel knew. Most legendary items had the ability to repair themselves. The ingredients that were used were very much in connection with the energy expended. This meant that divine energy was often what’s used to make these items, as well as what’s used while utilizing them. The titan armor Johnson had was a great example of that. If there was enough lightning element, the damaged armor would often regenerate itself. This was why most legendary items could be dated back to the oldest of times. The power they harnessed made it extremely difficult for them to be destroyed in any shape or form.

Instead of bringing the diving armor out, Abel put the portal bag away immediately. He didn’t think that the temple was going to put it away for him. It wasn’t because he was stingy, really, but he’d rather not miss out on the opportunity to get himself a good quality portal bag. The temple did offer just the armor, but the bag was often featured as an extra gift, so he just saw it like that without asking too much. Yes, it would make sense if it was that, especially since he was the potential husband of the Sainte.

Abel smiled and bowed to Druid Belua, “Thank me for the elder, Druid Beula. This is a great armor set you have here.”

He knew the cost already, but honestly, he could just go help the big druids with promotion if Loraine just asked for it.

Loraine closed in, “Are you sure you can promote Druid Beula, Abel?”

As soft as her voice was, it couldn’t escape the ears of the two druids present. They didn’t think that Master Bennett would lie to Loraine, but they became quite concerned when the question was asked.

Abel said confidently, “Don’t worry about it. Let’s go to the Valley of the Tree of Life for this.”

Loraine smiled and spoke, “Sure! That’s great!”

Abel turned and commanded Frankenstein, “Bring us to the teleportation circle, Frankenstein.”

After saying that, Frankenstein wrapped its power of the Will around the four of them and activated the “instantaneous movement.” Very quickly, they appeared right on top of the large-sized teleportation circle located in the basement. Once Abel activated the large-sized teleportation circle, they all disappeared and reappeared at the entrance spot of the Valley of the Tree of Life.

The two big druids bowed humbly as they appeared, “Greetings, honourable Master Bennett, Lady Sainte, Wizard Frankenstein and the big druids. We welcome you all to the valley.”

Abel was very polite, “I’m so sorry to interrupt your training. Please, it’s a small gift from me to make up for that.”

As Abel brought them into the valley, the two big druids leading the way had smiles all over the way as they looked towards the five mana potions inside. They were very pleased with what they got, and because of that, they took no time at all to come to the bark of the tree of life. When they arrived, Abel immediately switched on his soulspeaker’s ability and placed his hand on the tree bark.

A response from the tree of life quickly came, “The two big druids need to promote. Do you agree to the trade?”

Abel was a bit confused by that notification. The promotion price seemed to have gone up. He quickly inquired about the tree and was told that the two big druids were already ranked 22 and not 21. In any case, he was always ready to offer more green top-level gemstones if needed.

The two big druids looked at each other, “Maybe that’s why we’re missing this deal with the tree.”

And yes, Abel was showing these stones to them on purpose. He wanted to know how expensive this favor of theirs was.

Abel turned to remind the, “Please, ready yourselves, Druid Lucia. Druid Beula.”

Knowing that this was a crucial time for them, the two big druids sat on the ground and immediately entered meditation. The tree of life was just like the one helping druid Josephus out. All it took was two green light beams from the tree to end this all. That was not to say that the beam was all that was needed. The real promotion would begin after the light faded away.

Very quickly, a promotion qi rose from their bodies. For the druids, there was nowhere better for training than beneath the tree of life, so they immediately went to train there to replenish the force of nature that they lacked. As for the tree, it wasn’t just going to let them absorb all the energy out. The most it would give was the amount needed for a total of one level of promotion. As for the energy inside the green light, that was nature energy needed for the tree of life. The amount was high enough to guarantee a promotion to occur without fail, but not much beyond that.

The two big druids were surprised when they sensed the energy, “Is this it? A way to promote big druids on a massive scale?”
