Chapter 1421: Killing
Exploring the World Stone Keeper of the Dark World took much longer than Abel had expected. After a year, which was ten years in Dark World time, Abel finally made it to the second level.
It was a huge maze filled with h.e.l.l creatures. Fighting there was what Abel had been doing ever since he became a Rank 32 wizard.
Of course, considering how much stake he had in the central continent, he still kept an eye on his five faithful grounds while he was in the Dark World, using the soul chains. He would know immediately as soon as there was a problem, which was why he had no worries about staying in the Dark World.
============
Meanwhile, Abel’s impact in the Central Continent continued.
The dwarves had only gotten wealthier, and the Winter Hoof Kingdom had started working with the elves’ Potion Union.
The Winter Hoof Kingdom had never done any processing to their training resources, which meant they were not high quality. But with the G.o.d of Black Fog, or Abel’s, connections, more and more Potions began to emerge.
The elves, on the other hand, also got some handsome rewards for their efforts, so it was definitely a win-win situation.
Slowly, Priests in the Winter Hoof Kingdom began to grow. Abel soon realized something about the G.o.d of Black Fog.
The reason he did not need to do anything to attract followers was because he once had a great Potion-making talent in his G.o.dhead!
It was almost unheard of among the other G.o.ds, because Potions were normally useless to G.o.d Ranks.
However, the G.o.d of Black Fog had used his Potion-making ability to ground the trust his tauren had in him. Therefore, what Abel did was a perfect subst.i.tute.
Since the G.o.d of Black Fog’s new soul had lost his Potion-making ability, he should be able to recover it as soon as more Potion-making knowledge was injected into him in his Kingdom. After all, a G.o.d’s processing and a.n.a.lytical ability was extremely scary while in their Kingdom.
As for the resources Abel obtained in the Dark World, he would teleport them to the G.o.d of Black Fog for processing after he pa.s.sed down the Dark World Potion-making formulas to the G.o.d.
He was not afraid of his Summon disobeying him, and the G.o.d of Black Fog could keep the dwarves, the Winter Hoof Kingdom, and the elves supplied with Potions.
—
After ten days of training, the G.o.d of Black Fog recovered his full Potion-making ability and was just as good as Abel at it.
If the G.o.d of Black Fog’s Alchemy Pattern didn’t need to be rebuilt, he would be the world’s second Grandmaster Alchemist, other than Abel.
Still, it probably wouldn’t be too long, as Abel kept giving him work to do.
Meanwhile, G.o.d Rank knights continued to interfere with the front lines, and some cities beside the Warding Wall of Doomsday were being damaged.
With the dwarves gone, the Howling Castle and the defense wall’s restoration operations had taken a hit.
The Howling Castle was doing better with the Wizard Union prioritizing it, and the fact that it was made using the technology of a magic tower.
But repairing the Warding Wall was much harder, which gave the knights some great opportunities to bypa.s.s its Dimension Lock for a city invasion.
Fes City was a medium-sized trade city with a population ofa hundred thousand. It was where most of the day-to-day essentials for the Warding Wall, such as food, came from.
Considering how few wizard servants there were and how heavy those things were, even the Wizard Union would not use a Teleportation Circle to transfer them.
Therefore, even though Fes City was not as important as the front line, it still had some good defenses.
——
It was a sunny day and Fes city began to get busy as always.
In a yard, five black-cloaked wizards sat within a Magic Circle.
It was a Teleportation Circle, and what they were doing was definitely against the law.
However, their gazes were intense, because they were not true professionals. They were Magic Circle Makers.
Being a Circle Maker was easy, all that was needed was some Power of the Will talent.
Because of that, they were recruited by the Holy Kingdom to sneak into the Central Continent.
They had been working tirelessly for three days, and they were just going through some final examinations now.
“My side is ready!”
“Same here!”
The five Magic Circle Makers paused and exchanged gazes.
They knew very well the city would notice them as soon as they activated their Teleportation Circle, but they were not afraid.
“Let’s activate it!” one of them said in a low voice.
There was not a single bit of fear in his voice, even though they knew exactly what might happen next. It was all because of their faith.
As their Power of the Will reached into the Teleportation Circle and the mana gems were drained of their energy, a golden light emerged.
A spark of Dimension Force appeared, and Fes City’s Spirit immediately noticed it.
The air around the Makers compressed and forced them to the ground. It was the City Spirit, moving on the criminals.
Since they were not professionals, their bones shattered with a few clean snaps.
Still, their eyes burned with pa.s.sion, because they knew their job was done!
As they gazed at the Teleportation Circle, two red-cloaked wizards appeared beside them. They were elite law enforcement wizards, and were extremely strong for a city this size.
“Destroy that Circle!” one of them yelled desperately.
He quickly cast a fireball, confident that he could destroy the Teleportation Circle in one spell.
At that exact moment, a white light flashed and G.o.d Rank Knight Balmain appeared.
He reached out his hand as the fireball blasted out. Fire magic engulfed him, but he flung it away as if it was nothing.
He then began to look around like nothing had happened.
The red-cloaked wizards were fully suppressed. Their souls had no chance against a G.o.d Rank!
“Good job!” Knight Balmain nodded to the five Magic Circle Makers.
Afterwards, a Blessed Aura emerged below him, and the injuries on the Makers began to heal.
Considering how weak their life forces were, the Blessing Aura was extremely effective on them
They quickly stood up to bow, so excited they couldn’t even speak. They didn’t know how powerful the knight in front of them was, but they could imagine it just by looking at how hopeless the two red-cloaked wizards were.
Knight Balmain ignored the Makers and flew up into the sky. At the same time, the souls of those red-cloaked wizards were crushed and two soul beams shot away.
“My Lord, I will let the enemy taste my fury! Their souls will be your sacrifice!” Knight Balmain murmured. His words traveled to the ears of everyone in Fes City.
The civilians didn’t know what was happening, but the professionals knew exactly what it meant.
Still, it was too late. In a few flashes of holy power, Elemental Lightning swept across Fes City, and every living being, from professionals to the mice on the street, was killed helplessly.
There was not a single bit of remorse in the knight’s eyes. This entire thing was revenge!
Since he finally had the chance to bypa.s.s the Warding Wall of Castle Doomsday, there was no way he would miss the chance to destroy Fes City!
—
Fes City was now dead silent. Knight Balmain did not stay for long. He quickly returned to the Teleportation Circle and teleported back to the Holy Kingdom.
The five Makers then began to disarm the Teleportation Circle without actually realizing what had happened outside at all.
They took the most valuable parts of the Teleportation Circle into the house and entered an underground chamber with a lot of food, separated by a Barrier Circle.
—
After some time, a food wagon came into Fes City and quickly noticed something was wrong.
The guards guarding the gate had fallen, and corpses filled the streets.
The coachman screamed. He had never seen anything like it. The corpses were all burned to black and his scream was met with an eerie silence.
Soon, the Wizard Union’s wizards arrived and found the crazy coachman, along with the ma.s.sacred residents of Fes City.
