Abe the Wizard

Chapter 372 - Withstand



Chapter 372 Withstand

As soon as Flying Flame flew outside the Black Marsh, Abel saw the crazy hell creatures behind them suddenly stop. They each went their own way like nothing happened. The dark energy on top of Bartoli also faded.

In almost no time, Flying Flame was above the Dark Forest again. However, at that exact moment, another cloud of dark energy emerged above Bartoli again and started to track her down.

Every single hell creature in the Dark Forest has gone insane, but that place was a natural maze. Most of the Carvers were trapped, so not many hell creatures were actually chasing after Flying Flame.

Flying Flame was too fast; it had exited the Dark Forest in under 2 hours. Just like that, the Dark Energy above Bartoli faded once again.

Flying Flame continued to fly. It came across the Stones Field and Cold Plain, as the dark energy above Bartoli appeared and disappeared again. At last, Abel finally saw the shadow of Blood Moor.

“Flying Flame, you don’t need to roar up front anymore!” Abel padded its neck.

Flying Flame was starting to get a little annoyed by Abel’s constant reminder through the soul chain. It remembered very well–no more reminders were needed.

After they entered Blood Moor, the sky began to gather the dark energies again. Abel sighed; he would not be able to bring Bartoli back to the Holy Continent if this kept happening. Did he really have to leave Bartoli in the Dark World?

As long as there was dark energy above Bartoli, Abel could not ignite a Scroll of Town Portal next to her and enter the Portal Door with her.

Soon Flying Flame had arrived at a place not far from Blood Moor. There was a huge Oak Tree there. As soon as Abel landed, he wanted to connect with the Oak Tree, and the Oak Tree Understood his situation as well.

The huge Oak Tree began to shake, and a mystical green beam shot up to the sky. The entire sky was now filled with green lights, turning Blood Moor into a haven of green.

As the sky was covered in green, the dark energy above Bartoli disappeared. Abel didn’t know how long the Oak Tree could sustain this, so he quickly yelled, “Flying Flame, quickly go back to the Rogue Encampment!”

Flying Flame realized time was running out, so he accelerated even more. In a few short breaths, they were back at the open field of the Rogue Encampment.

Abel jumped down and took out a Scroll of Town portal from his Horadric Cube. After it was ignited, a watery blue portal door appeared in front of their eyes.

“Bartoli, get in quick!” Abel yelled. But this point the sky was filled with tension. It seemed like the cloud of dark energy was about to penetrate the lockdown of the green beam.

Bartoli quickly jumped down from Flying Flame as well and speeded straight towards the Portal Door without hesitation. As Bartoli exited, the dark energy in the sky disappeared.

Abel let the Oak Tree know through the soul chain, and the green beam began to retract back towards the direction of the Oak Tree in a blink of an eye.

“What did I actually do?” Abel basically had no knowledge when it came to Oak Trees. There was only information about Druids in that book, and it rarely mentioned anything about Oak Trees. Since Abel didn’t know much about Druids in the first place, of course, he wouldn’t know what just happened.

The Oak Tree had just defied the law of Blood Moor, which sent chills down Abel’s spin just thinking about it. How could laws be defied? This Oak Tree was quite young too. What could it become in the future?

However, when Abel looked at his soul chain, he claimed down a little. This Oak Tree was personally cultivated by him through the Druid’s soul cultivation technique. This soul was almost entirely made up of Abel’s power of the will, so this was the closest form of contract. It would not betray him even without the soul chain.

Too bad the Elves had forbidden too much stuff about the Druids. They had already given Abel a lot of face by providing him with a Training Guide, which made sense considering how much Abel had contributed to the Elves, especially the ones in Angstrom City.

It seemed like it would be very hard if he wanted to take a further dive into the knowledge of Druids, so maybe he would need to seek knowledge about Oak Trees by himself.

As Abel was still distracted by what was happening in the sky, he realised the portal door had already disappeared. Without another choice, he had to ignite another Scroll of Town Portal and return to the Holy Continent with Flying Flame.

As soon as Abel stepped out the portal door, he heard the excitement drenched voice of Bartoli “Master!” Her voice even sounded a little bit shaky.

“Bartoli, this is the world I live in. It’s called the Holy Continent. Since you didn’t know a single thing about this world, I’ll organise someone to explain everything to you after we return to the human world.” Said Abel with a smile. He understood Bartoli’s feelings. As a free-thinking individual being locked up in hell for tens of thousands of years, she could finally become a human again.

In a gentle flick of a finger, a magic staff with a ‘spirit transfer’ ability appeared in his hand. After a few flashes of lights, the Protection Circle of Dark Valley had been put away.

“You need to learn how to set up a magic circle and protection circle. You have to protect this place when I leave again in the future!” Abel said as he was putting away the protection circle.

“Yes, Master!” Bartoli said with a bow.

Afterwards, Abel looked at Bartoli’s dress. Although it looked like a noble dress, it’s style was completely different from the ones that humans wore at the time. He needed to buy some new clothes for her in the next city.

“Master, careful!” Suddenly a spark of fire emerged from Bartoli’s hand, and a wall of flame was about to shoot out.

“Stop, that’s my contract beast!” Abel quickly shouted.

The Stone giant happily ran to Abel’s side. It carefully gazed at Flying Flame and stuck it’s hand out to show it’s owner what it had found.

There were tens of red gems, green gems, and blue gems. Although they were all tiny compared to its giant hand, they were still shining in immaculate colors.

Of course, Abel didn’t really care about just a few gems, but he had never given Johnson any gems before. He must have found them itself. Could this place be a gem mine?

“Master, are these things useful?” Johnson asked Abel through the soul chain like a little kid handing over their test results to his mum.

“Of course, where did you find them?” Abel asked back through the soul chain.

“Down there; there’s a lot!” it pointed with its giant fingers.

“How deep was it?” Abel didn’t have time to bother with gems, but he wouldn’t mind taking some home if the mine was shallow. If it was deep, he would just leave it for the future.Johnson was having a hard time responding. After half a day of thinking, he pointed at its own body and said, “two Johnson’s tall!”

Abel almost immediately gave up on this idea. Without a large team of people, no way he could dig for 20 meters by himself.

“Master, if you want, I can help you summon them!” it continued.

“Fine, I’ll stay here for a few more days anyway. Just get as much as you can !” Said Abel as he tied an empty portal bag around its hand. Then Abel explained the purpose of a Portal Bag through the soul chain.

After it learned how to use a portal bag, it started to keep putting stones inside and taking it out again. It seemed like it was having the time of its life.

After a while of playing with the portal bag, it fully grasped how to use it. Suddenly a beam of white light shot out from it’s body towards the ground. The rocks on the ground began to shake and opened up a road for it.

Soon, pieces of natural gems began to fly out from the gaps on the ground, and went straight towards the giant’s palm.

Abel couldn’t help but admire this stone controlling ability. Although he had more than enough money to buy gems, he would still attract a lot of attention if he bought too much of it at once. Therefore, he always had to buy them in separate batches.
