Chapter 196 Power Increased Once Again
There was a forest around 200 miles from the magic tower in Bakong city. In the midst of that forest stood a barrier circle, separating the stuff from the rest of the world.
Abel took out everything from his portal bag, his personal storage box, Kong Kong spirit portal bag, Akara tent, and the Tome of Town portal
Abel’s main task right now was to combine. He needed to combine all 485 of the normal ‘const.i.tution potion’ he had into Master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’. Every 3 bottles could be combined into a higher rank one.
Just like that, he spent half a day sitting on the floor, putting the ‘const.i.tution potion’ in his Horadric cube. He put it in, take it out, repeat, and repeat relentlessly.
The fundamental ingredients for ‘const.i.tution potion’ were not hard to find, but the higher the rank, the rarer it would be. Even those one rank above normal, greater ‘const.i.tution potion’ were very hard to find in the market. That was not because ‘const.i.tution potion’ were hard to make. It was because it was very hard to find a higher quality version of some ingredients that made up the potion.
For example, salt rock gra.s.s was an ingredient that made up the ‘const.i.tution potion’. They were very commonly used in medicine and could grow in a wide range of places. However, there were only 2 ways if you wanted to make a greater ‘const.i.tution potion’ out of it. The first way was by pure luck, through an intermediate potion maker’s flash of realization. The second way was through the hands of an elite potion maker but would require a 10 years old salt rock gra.s.s, and normally they would dry up after 2 years.
To find a 10 years old salt rock gra.s.s was 100 times harder than finding a four-leaf clover. On top of that, there were also a few fundamental ingredients that were very hard to find.
All of those circ.u.mstances above was only describing the greater ‘const.i.tution potion’, those greatest ‘const.i.tution potion’ were even harder to obtain. All ‘const.i.tution potions’ were made specifically for wizards, to repair the damage they caused in their const.i.tution through their training. Therefore no matter how high rank their ‘const.i.tution potion’ were, their purpose would still the same. Therefore, even if a wizard had been taking greater ‘const.i.tution potion’ for years, there would not be much difference if they were taking the greatest ‘const.i.tution potion’.
The legendary master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’ was the most desirable ‘const.i.tution potion’. Even Masters did not believe they existed in this world. If you were lucky enough to find all the ingredients required, you would still need a Master potion maker to formulate them while being in a flash of realization state.
All potions were like that. A master’s rank signified the most desirable state of the potion. Even if a grandmaster was going to make one, they would still need to gather all the rare ingredients. That’s why high ranking potions were so hard to find.
Every single potion maker of this world would definitely doubt their lives if they were to stand next to Abel.
The floor was filled with master’s ‘const.i.tution potion,’ s.h.i.+ning in dark gold. As Abel kept combining, their amount on the floor kept increasing
In the end, Abel joyfully stared at the 55 bottles of master’s ‘construction potion’ on the floor. They were all s.h.i.+ning in dark gold, illuminating the surrounding in a hint of mystery.
Abel shoved everything on the floor in his Horadric cube and took out his attribute sign. He placed his hand on top of it, and a beam of white light appeared. It reflected Abel’s current attributes.
Power: 17.12
Speed: 4.50
Const.i.tution: 8.15
Will: 27.34
Mana: 27
His will had already reached 27 points. If he did not give the 5 bottles of ‘soul potion’ to Black Wind and White Cloud, Abel’s will would definitely break 30 points. But Abel did not regret the decision. Both White Cloud’s invisible ability and Black Wind’s move in a flash were extraordinary abilities. He did not waste those ‘soul potions.’ His partner’s increase in power was like his own increase in power.
Abel picked up a bottle of dark gold ‘const.i.tution potion’ from the floor, tilted back his head, and drank it down. A heatwave began to swim through his body. It was not like the first time he drank a master’s’ const.i.tution potion’. At that time, he was badly injured, so the master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’ had used up all its power to repair Abel’s body, and did not have any more potential to further strengthen it. Now, the master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’ had spread into every corner of Abel’s body. He felt every single one of his organs getting stronger.
The effects had faded after around half an hour, and Abel had clearly felt his body getting stronger. Both elite knights and wizards needed to be very familiar with their bodies. Since Abel held both of these occupations, he needed to be a lot more than both normal wizards and knights. Since his body’s const.i.tution had increased, it seemed like his power had also increased.
He took out his attribute card to have a check. He was right. His const.i.tution had increased from 8.15 – 8.35. Since he was not injured, his body had fully absorbed all the benefits of the master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’. One bottle could increase his const.i.tution by 0.2 points.
His power had swelled up from 17.12 to 17.22, which was a 0.1 point increase. This increase was only caused naturally by his body getting more powerful. If Abel had doubled down on his training, this increase would continue to speed up, until he maximized his body’s const.i.tution.
A unique characteristic of a Master’s rank potion was that they did not have a time limit. They could be used continuously, without needing to worry about side effects. Although Abel didn’t know his body’s limit, these ‘const.i.tution potion’ would still have an effect on him until he reaches it.
Therefore, Abel did not stop as he poured another bottle into his mouth. His body’s response excited him. It proved that a master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’ could really be used multiple times and still preserve its power.
Abel did not rest for half a day. Other than entering into the Rogue encampment for meditation, he spent all his time drinking those master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’.
Abel had just drunk up his 35th bottle out of the 55 bottles of master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’. Originally his body only had the const.i.tution of 8.35, and now it had swelled up to 15.00. However, he had hit his limit. The 35th bottle was basically a waste.
Only 20 bottles of master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’ were left. Abel’s const.i.tution had never increased this fast before. Its effects were so dramatic, and it was like Abel had gained an entirely new body.
The most obvious was his skin. Although it didn’t look too different from the surface, he could clearly felt that his skin was a lot more sensitive to pressure when he lightly flicked his finger at it. However, at the same time, rebound force made him felt he was striking the skin of a bull, so tough yet so elastic. It was like his skin had become a layer of leather armor on him, so it should limit the damage of those normal attacks to the max.
His muscles had also changed. Due to years of knight training, Abel’s muscles had turned in to one of those strong and hard muscles. Although they were still as strong now, they had also become a lot softer and more elastic.
The change in muscles had directly impacted his attribute of power. That’s why his power had swelled up from the original 17.12 to 20.62. This increase in power was like getting water from a pipe; it was different from power increase explosion. Power increase explosion still needed a certain amount of time to practice and adapt until the person could control the newly gained power. However, these easily gained power was like natural growth if a body. They were just as easy to control as if you’ve been training with this strength for years.
Abel clenched his fist in mid-air and felt his own power. He could be certain that his strength had now reached 5000 pounds.
Elite knights could use impose pressure, but there haven’t fully matured impose pressure was decided into 2 components. One was the power held within the body; another was the power of the will.
Therefore, an elite knight or above could unleash a will force that combined the pressure caused by their body’s power and their power of the will.
Abel’s current impose pressure had also increased since his power had increased. Impose pressure was a type of pressure. It was targeted towards lower rank enemies. As long as you use the impose pressure, your opponent would know your status, most of the time, they would not want to mess around with you. If their rank was too low, they might even drop dead on the spot.
For example, there was an elite knight mistakenly unleashed his impose pressure towards normal people in a black market. Due to their differences in rank, it led to a large scale of people being badly injured. The impose pressure of that elite knight was too strong. If Abel had done the same to normal people, it would definitely be a nightmarish disaster.
By this point, Abel felt like he was short of resources. Although the benefit of these master’s ‘const.i.tution potion’ was very obvious since it had increased his attribute by a lot, it was still hard for him to obtain them. He could not be this lucky every time and survive in a battle with an official wizard. Especially after he had fought with an intermediate deity, he realized just how big of a gap was between his ability and their ability.
