Chapter 997: Social Gathering
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
In the past, Abel would hesitate before taking out a golden longevity potion since it could cause a riot, but since he became a dragon big druid, he had enough power to protect himself.
On top of that, Frankenstein was an ice law-defying wizard, and Doff was a powerful Beamon with a flas.h.i.+ng ability. People would think twice before messing with him.
The most important thing was that he was looked after by the G.o.ddess and signed an equal contract with the tree of life. His status was untouchable within the elves.
Even though the palace knew Abel had a potion like that, they could only trade with him equally, unlike in the past, where they would just need to invite him to the palace and negotiate.
Cough cough* Big druid Lendo saw the trading stopped, so he coughed, and all the druids went quiet. He then continued, “Everyone, now let’s exchange training wisdom so we can grow together!”
This was the most antic.i.p.ated part of the gathering. Since there were 15 big druids, exchanging training wisdom could help them develop much faster.
Druid Poly stood behind Abel, shaking with excitement. Although she was a rank 20 druid, she still needed to take care of her family. She did not sell herself to any big family, so she never really had too many training resources and guidance.
Even after she became Abel’s follower, she did not have too much experience in leveling up.
Hearing the wisdom of big druids was a rare opportunity. They often always had a serious look on their face since they were much more useful than an elite druid, which was why a social gathering like this was necessary.
The only one on the spot who didn’t seem to care was Abel and Frankenstein. Frankenstein was a law-defying wizard, so druid training meant nothing to him, and Abel’s druid ident.i.ty was only a mask for his wizard ident.i.ty.
Although the dragon transformation had become his most powerful skill, his main profession was still wizardry.
Big druid Lendo took the lead and shared some knowledge about transformation. He was one of the rare druids skilled in transformation, and his wisdom was only given officially, not through tricks of the system.
Afterward, another big druid stood up and began talking about summoning and elemental attack skills in detail.
Those big druids were paying close attention, as this was how they learned to improve.
“Master Bennett, the Evil kingdom’s invasion has changed the elves and the big druids. In the past these training wisdom exchanges barely scratched the surface. This gathering is one was the most insightful ones!” Big Druid Lendo whispered.
Of course, since big druid Lendo did not hold back on their wisdom, the other big druids followed.
That battle changed the fate of the elves. It was a battle even the G.o.ddess of the moon had to show herself. The elves were struck by reality, even for the arrogant big druids.
Therefore, the big druids had to help each other grow as much as possible to deal with the future crisis.
Maybe those big druids all had a similar idea, so all of them brought a few followers with them to this gathering.
If they were lucky, perhaps they could cultivate a new big druid for the elves.
They all knew the Evil Kingdom had their eyes on the tree of life. It was only a matter of time until they returned, and the elves needed to drastically strengthen themselves until that day.
The elves gathered a druid military even though they hated war. It was a revolution, a revolution for normal druids to push their fighting power to the next level.
Abel immediately understood something. Even if elite druids had teachers or guidance, it might not be suitable for them. For example, Big Druid Lendo’s followers might be more suitable learning elements, but they were forced to learn transformation, which drastically limited their potential of becoming a big druid.
This wisdom exchange could open their eyes up to all kinds of different schools so they could choose more wisely.
Druid Poly had a strange feeling; it was like her level up was about to arrive. Although it felt a little elusive, this thought was swirling inside her head.
At first, she thought it was just an illusion, but immediately after a big druid finished his wisdom for elements, she felt enlightened from her heart.
“Master Bennett, I think I’m about to level up!” She said to Abel desperately. She knew it was an embarra.s.sment to speak up in these events, but she just had to leave and start to train immediately if she wanted her level up to be successful.
At that moment, Abel was also listening closely to the big druids’ explanation. After all, his knowledge of druids was not even on the level of Druid Poly. All he got was a Druid guide from the Holy Continent.
Maybe Lorraine’s mother, Grand Duke Edwina, did not expect him to become a big druid as well.
When he heard Druid Poly’s request, he was stunned, but in the best way possible. Having his followers level up was something worth celebrating.
However, he soon realized how difficult it was to level up without a good environment.
The best place was the tree of life valley with its endless force of nature.
“Big druid Lendo, everyone. Poly is about to level up, so I’ll go with her first. I don’t have any wisdom to share, but I’ll leave some light healing potion and mana potions for you all as a gift!” Abel interrupted in embarra.s.sment and bowed.
Afterward, he handed a portal bag to big druid Lendo and grabbed druid Poly by the hand. Frankenstein stepped forward and flashed away with them.
Only half of the big druids shared their wisdom, and a level 20 druid was enlightened.
All the other druid followers by the side were filled with admiration. They were all picked by a big Druid after all.
Still, it was not a surprise that Druid Poly had leveled up. As Abel’s status grew, her training resource also improved. Especially she could exchange many things with the light healing potions Abel gave her every month,
Even the hardest to obtain resources could be obtained easily to her. She had been rank 20 for a long time, and she was in her top condition.
What Druid Poly lacked was just an opportunity, and this gathering had given it to her.
Big Druid Lendo opened the portal bag. It was a normal size 1 square meter portal bag, but 150 light healing potions and 150 mana potions were within.
“Master Bennett really is a lavish guy!” Big Druid Lendo knew how expensive those potions were. Due to their rarity, normally even big druids were only going to get a few bottles as lifesavers.
Big Druid Lendo was one of the few druids who actually used light healing potions in battles. Fighting a mad knight while drinking that potion was something he would never forget.
Frankenstein flashed Abel and Druid Poly to the palace’s tree of life’s teleportation circle, and Abel ignited it with his power of the will.
When his ident.i.ty was confirmed, the 3 of them vanished in a flash.
They soon appeared in the tree of life’s valley entrance. Abel greeted the 2 guarding big druids, but he did not have time to say too much as Frankenstein directly flashed them into the valley.
It had barely taken a minute from the time Druid Poly told Abel that she was about to level to the time they arrived at the tree of life valley, so you could just imagine how scary a law-defying wizard could move.
Abel let druid Poly down, and she sat on the gra.s.s under the tree of life. A stand of level-up energy arose.
Since Druid Poly was contracted with Abel, Abel had faith in her, and he knew how important a level up was.
Druid Poly began to examine the law of natural force. She derived her knowledge from the fire and wind elements and utilized it as the basis for her level up.
Although Abel was a big druid, he was forcefully leveled up by the tree of life, so he couldn’t a.s.sist Druid Poly in any way.
Leveling up through transforming into a giant dragon was someone only Abel could do after all.
Still, Abel could support Druid Poly by giving her the best resources, such as bringing her to the tree of life valley, which only he had the status to do so.
Abel waited, and time slowly pa.s.sed. The level-up energy within Druid Poly had reached its peak, but her chance of leveling up was decreasing.
The lack of guidance was beginning to show its toll. Druid Poly’s knowledge was still insufficient when it came to creating the law of fire and wind.
Abel sensed what Druid Poly was going through from the soul contract, and he knew she was about to fail. Even though he had potions that could help Druid Poly recover from the injuries caused by this level-up attempt, it would still be much harder for her next level-up.
Abel ignited the soul speaker ability and connected his power of the will with the tree of life.
“The tree of life, can you help druid Poly level up?” He asked.
He signed an equal contract with it, which meant he couldn’t command the tree of life to do anything, and the same went for the tree of life.
The tree of life replied with a straightforward answer. It could help, but it needed 10 top-level green mana gems.
It was a fair trade, and the tree of life was just playing by the rules since Abel had a demand.
Although 10 top-level gems were nothing to Abel, and he would even pay 100 top-level gems if he could help druid Poly level up, 10 top-level gems were enough to satisfy the tree of life.
But still, this was only something Abel had the power to do. The tree of life would not even communicate with any being that it deemed as insignificant, let alone trade with them.
