Chapter 1141: Hit to Kill
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Law-defying wizards had demands for resources. Wizard Luce was no exception. He didn’t want to be a hermit for the rest of his place. He wanted to know why Master Bennett was heading over to the Snow Spirit Mountain. Master Bennett looked like he was trying to decimate the entire Snow Spirit Mountain.
Abel withdrew his suppressive pressure, “I’ve got no quarrel with you and your mountain, Wizard Luce, but the moment you try something on the Holy Continent is when you cross my boundaries!”
Wizard Luce’s face paled as he began to understand. He should’ve known earlier. The Holy Continent had restaurants serving the same food as Master Bennett. When he first learned about the effects of those foods, he realized immediately that Snow Spirit Mountain would want this. Still, since the Snow Spirit Mountain was not privileged enough to make it to get access to the food, he had to resort to sending out two of his advanced wizards as undercover customers.
So what were the two undercover customers doing? Well, Wizard Luce’s thought that the Holy Continent would not contain anyone stronger than rank 18, but the two advanced wizards were killed. He was very afraid, actually, that Master Bennett would come after him to ask about this. After waiting for a few days, he was surprised that he didn’t hear anything of the sort, but today, he saw Master Bennett at his base.
What made Wizard Luce give up was pretty much what Master Bennett said. Wizards always had conflicts with one another, but the most serious of them wasn’t for resources or personal grudges. No, the worst conflicts would always happen if it was related to the families and influences behind the wizards. If the family of the wizards was targeted, the wizards would always be a subject of discrimination and prohibition.
If one law-defying wizard was to antagonize another law-defying wizard, and they decided to kill the friends and families of each other for it, wouldn’t the continent be in complete ruin because of it?
To the Snow Spirit Mountain wizard organization, the Holy Continent was almost like a powerless regular person. If Abel didn’t do anything to arm the Holy Continent, nothing else produced over there would hurt the two rank 20 advanced wizards. It’s a really scary situation, in that sense, that the two advanced wizards were just marching over there to rob his recipes. By the way, could they just be after his recipes by going to the Holy Continent? No! They would have to kidnap someone important first and force some secrets out. More importantly, they would never keep the ones they kidnapped alive.
Wizard Luce tried again, “I’ve never inflicted any loss on you, Master Bennett! Actually, I can pay you to resolve anything you are dissatisfied with that were between us!”
If he didn’t have to, Wizard Luce would not want to abandon his Snow Spirit Mountain. There were just too many important things that he didn’t want to lose.
“Frankenstein, on the side!” Abel ordered.
Frankenstein’s been going around the ancient building for a while now. As four streaks of the soul light rose inside the Snow Spirit Mountain wizard organization headquarter building, it came back to Abel while standing beside.
Abel said calmly, “You are a cla.s.sholder, Wizard Luce. You should understand the rules of the continent. If you’ve done something against my subcontinent, you should be ready for my revenge!”
Wizard Luce got very loud, “You are strong, Master Bennett! I can see that. There’s also a law-defying wizard here and a frightening, frightening Beamon giant beast, but do you think that’s enough to get me?”
Abel stood silently and watched what performance Wizard Luce had left. No, he’s not going to show mercy here. He needed to make his point clear. Also, he could do with another corpse of a law-defying wizard.
Wizard Luce tried again, “If… If you abandon the Snow Spirit Mountain now, Master Bennett, I’ll pay everything I can for your loss.”
Abel was still standing there silently. He wasn’t talking.
Wizard Luce started yelling like a madman, “You want to be my enemy, Master Bennett? I swear, I’ll kill everyone you know! You won’t be able to stop me every single day!”
Abel replied with a sneer, “You overestimate yourself, Wizard Luce. You think you can leave this place?”
As he spoke, Abel unleashed an “aging” spell that he prepared. At the same time, the rank 22 dragon druid essence rushed towards Wizard Luce. Wizard Luce was already prepared for this, but his “instantaneous movement’ was already lagging behind. He was still prepared that he could leave. However. Even if he was a bit slower, he still had the “instantaneous movement” spell scroll that he could use. If the big druid still had any spells left, he was sure that nothing would be quick enough to hit him.
While trying to retain his consciousness against Abel’s suppressive pressure, Abel drew an “instantaneous movement” rune and unleashed a rain of curse. With the buff of the “oak heart” and the “spirit” s.h.i.+eld, the rate of the spell was already faster than any big priest. Nevertheless, wizard Luce could feel something heavy. His body was like a powerless old man. All his movements slowed down, and he realized something strange. Master Bennett should be a druid, so why was he casting a priest curse?”
Still, Wizard Luce had to think about escaping. So, he activated the “instantaneous movement” spell scroll that he had and disappeared in white light without hesitating. He escaped towards was not where the spiritual guardian knights and the spiritual guardian wizards because they felt slightly weaker.
And so Wizard Luce went ahead. He’s gained a lot of distance away from Abel, Frankenstein, and the Beamon giant beast, Doff, very quickly. He couldn’t help but feel very glad, but at the same time, he knew that he had to be careful. Just when he unleashed the “instantaneous movement,” he also fully unleashed his rank 21 law-defying wizard presence. The way he thought about this, as soon as the instantaneous movement he was casting ended, his wizard presence would just bring those strange enemies down.
He thought wrong, though. He was a rank 21 law-defying wizard, but the spiritual guardian knights and the spiritual guardian wizards were on the same level as their master. They were ranked 22. If Wizard Luce was targeting just one of them, there might be a bit more effective, but to hold down all of them would be too obvious. Ahead of Wizard Luce was a pile of silver-white lightning. The frozen armor on him was quickly dispersed. During this time, at least five spiritual guardian wizards were casting the lightning chain on him. It did interrupt him from casting another instantaneous movement. The lightning zaps were making all his hairs stand.
Wizard Luce didn’t think that the spiritual guardian wizards would be casting the lightning chain, which was something that the lightning wizards could cast. They couldn’t hurt him underneath his frozen armor, but it would stop him from casting any of his instantaneous movements. What made him more desperate was that twenty-something more enemies were preparing against him to attack at any point.
Worse yet, Wizard Luce couldn’t distinguish the spiritual guardian knights and the spiritual guardian wizards apart. This couldn’t be blamed on Wizard Luce. Hybrid summon creatures like this were not very often seen at all. Only druids and priests could tell what the original forms were, really.
Also, now that Wizard Luce was under the effect of the “aging” curse and was surrounded by the spiritual guardian knights and the spiritual guardian wizards, he had a lot of trouble moving. Now, the Fire Tooh Battle Fort was also directing him with the weapon system. Abel seemed to be doing fine. He was confident that he wouldn’t let go of Wizard Luce at the very start, actually, given that he was already casting the curse of a priest.
While Wizard Luce was still doubting, the twelve spiritual guardian knights surrounded him and pushed with their blades. The frozen armor on Wizard Luce responded to the attacks by chasing an icebolt. This wasn’t supposed to do a lot to the spiritual guardian knights. The level 30 “command skeleton” and “summon resistance” were making them something extremely tough to fight against.
On the other side, the twelve spiritual guardian wizards never stopped attacking. The “lightning chain” was constantly being cast. Abel revealed a smile on his face. The spiritual guardian knights and the spiritual guardian wizards were finally starting to be able to contribute. They could now be a real threat to law-defying wizards of this level. Of course, they still needed him to cast an “aging curse,” but that’s still very fine.
Wizard Luce cried in anger, “What monster is this?”
He didn’t understand. A weak enemy such as this had the same ability as a wizard to teleport. He was starting to understand. These enemies could be divided into two groups. One was the ones that were supposed to deal with physical attacks, and although he should be theoretically safe under his frozen armor, the truth was, he already had several small wounds on him because the “steel” swords had the ability to tear enemy wounds at 50% chance.
The other ones were spell attacks. The ones that were scary, too. Wizard Luce didn’t want to die, not especially against these weak beings. He screamed and screamed, knowing that the frozen armor on him would break eventually.
He cried out loud, “Give me a chance to fight you, Master Bennett! Let’s make this fair!”
Abel said calmly, “You’re fighting me right now, Wizard Luce.”
Abel was telling the truth. Wizard Luce was fighting his summoned creatures, so naturally, Wizard Luce was fighting him. Wizard Luce thought that he still had the “instantaneous movement’ spell scroll on him, and he inserted his power of the Will back into the portal bag. However, his body was constantly interfered with by the “lightning chain.” The lightning chain was making his power of the Will tremble. Without a steady supply, he couldn’t even activate the “instantaneous movement” spell scroll on him.
Abel shook his head, “Frankenstein! I want the whole body intact!”
Frankenstein’s body disappeared. Following that, under the surrounding of the twelve “spiritual guardian knights,” ten-something lightning chains continued to attack like they would on the Land of Lightning Fall. Still, these lightning chains were doing nothing to Frankenstein. Frankenstein reached out his hand and broke through the very, very thin “frozen armor” that Wizard Luce was wearing. It grabbed him by the neck, and very quickly, a pillar of the “soul light” rose up to the sky.
