Chapter 925: Request From a Law Defying Wizard
A favor from a Law-defying wizard as well as an ancient potion’s formula were great conditions.
Just a favor from a law-defying wizard was good enough. If anyone messed with Abel in the future, he could ask Wizard Hume for help.
It was almost stupid not to agree. WIzard Hume could save Abel’s life in the most critical situation.
Also, looking at Wizard Hume, he might be angering one of the most powerful wizards in the wizard union if he rejected.
“Wizard Hume, I can’t guarantee my success rate with 5 portions, so you need to be aware of the consequence if I fail!” Abel still reminded wizard Hume.
“Master Bennett, If even you fail, that’s destiny!” Certainty flashed in the eyes of Wizard Hume as he lowered his voice.
Wizard Hume then took out a portal bag and handed it to Abel. Abel scanned with his power of the will. It was a 5 square meters portal bag. It seems like wizard Hume was going to give Abel this portal bag as a gift as well.
A 5 square meters portal bag was already very precious to other elite wizards, but it wasn’t much for a law-defying wizard with almost unlimited amounts of resources.
Abel knew how valuable and important that spirit guardian potion was to Wizard Hume by looking at the portal bag.
He did not look at the ingredients immediately. Instead, he took out a black metal ore with some potion formula etched onto it.
There were more than 130 ingredients. It was much more than the natural breathing potion, which showed how much harder it was to make.
This was why Wizard Hume wasn’t willing to risk it with other masters. They could not even guarantee their success rate with natural breathing potions, let alone something more challenging.
No master currently living had made a ‘Spirit guardian potion,’ so succeeding with just 5 portions was extremely low for other masters.
Wizard Hume knew he was also taking a risk with Abel, but after some research, he knew he was his only hope.
‘Spirit guardian potion’ could protect a person’s body from the rebound during a level up. Since it was master grade, it was also effective on law-defying wizards.
This was why Wizard Hume needed it. The spirit guardian potion could minimize the chance of him getting swallowed up, and he felt like it could push him to the next level.
He was not just an individual. Countless families and wizards depended on him so he could not fail. Once he lost his power, the people who depended on him would take a big loss as well.
He would rather sacrifice anything than losing his power, so he had offered a favor for a spirit guardian potion.
Abel looked through the formula and examined the ingredients. He had no idea how ancient sights preserve their ingredients. They were not damaged at all. Instead, they were in perfect potion-making condition.
“Wizard Hume, come with me!” Abel held the portal bag in his hand and said.
“Ok, Master Bennett!” WIzard Hume felt his heart lifted. Abel was acting calm which showed that he was confident.
He followed Abel into his potion-making room. Druid Poly was reading a book outside. She immediately stood up when they saw Wizard Hume. Their eyes were filled with alertness.
Abel didn’t tell her who she was meeting, and she was not expecting it to be a law-defying wizard.
“Poly, this is law-defying wizard Hume. He will sit with you for a moment. I’ll go in first!” Abel smiled.
Wizard Hume was also surprised to see Druid Poly. He knew Abel had a rank 20 druid as a follower, but he expected her to be one of those drained of potential. Instead, he could tell that Druid Poly had some hope of becoming a Big Druid.
A follower needed to sign a contract with a master potion maker, which meant they would stick by his side at all cost. Was a big druid still going to be a follower?
This was why it was rare to see a rank 19 or rank 20 druids as a follower. It also wasn’t likely that they would listen to other’s commands.
Since Druid Gunter had gone off to do business for Abel, the only one staying was Druid Poly.
After stepping into his potion-making area and began the process, he spent 2 hours organizing the ingredients, and everything was progressing perfectly according to the ancient formula.
Although he was unfamiliar with the ingredients, the world stone had made the process much easier.
Finally, he yelled ‘level up!”
Vibrant lights of all spectrum shot out, and the sparkles retreated, leaving a blue glow on the liquid. Afterward, blue sparkles began to emerge.
Abel shook his head. It was another blue potion. He couldn’t become famous with this!
Let’s just hope powerful potion maker skill would attract more powerful figures to ask for favors, not go against him!
He calculated for a moment. A master’s spirit guardian potion had only taken him 3 hours. He couldn’t help but sigh.
If he was a normal master potion maker, a successful master potion would take at least 15 hours since they most likely needed to go through all 5 portions. Of course, the time for rest and recovering energy was not included.
This was why master potion makers were always short of time, and that’s why they wouldn’t achieve much if they did druid training.
Luckily Abel had the time difference of the Dark World. He could use those time for training, which doesn’t affect his potion-making time.
He couldn’t step out right now. If he did, wizard Hume would know he succeeded in one go.
Then, people would no longer give him 5 portions in the future, and he could no longer profit. Even if the spirit guardian potion was not useful to him, he could trade it with other resources.
He put away the alchemy tool of the union and took out his Ankara alchemy bottles. He combined the spring water with his Horadric cube and began to work with the other 4 portions.
Wizard Hume always thought he was in a good state of mind without much attachment to the world after living for so long, but he could help but grew desperate as he waited for the spirit guardian potion.
He saw too many law-defying wizards living on ways to forcefully drag out their lives since they could no longer level up. Their bodies were so so altered to the point they looked more like ghosts than humans.
He didn’t want to lose his dignity as a human and turn into a monster like them.
Therefore, he had to level up when he still got the chance. But he needed a guarantee that his body wouldn’t get swallowed up by force during the process. The spirit guardian potion could not only achieve this, but it could also give him peace of mind.
The worst-case scenario of failing a level up with the spirit guardian potion was wasting some time. All he needed to do was to gather enough resources again, and he could have another go.
The atmosphere outside was not going well. There were not many common topics between a male human law-defying wizard and a female elf rank 20 druid.
Time passed slowly for Wizard Hume. He began to doubt if Abel had even started making the potion.
It was a brand new formula for him, after all, and it was from ancient times. He heard from a potion maker from the wizard union, every ingredient from an ancient potion needed to go through deep analysis.
Although he did not have his hope too high, he was still hopeful.
He sacrificed a lot of those ingredients. Everything that has lasted since ancient times were priceless treasures.
It was time for lunch, but both Wizard Hume and Druid Poly did not eat anything. Wizard Hume was not in the mood, and Druid Poly was used to taking the Hunger potion Abel gave her. After all, it was blue howling rabbit flavor.
Since she no longer needed to eat, she had gotten even closer to nature. She felt like she was getting closer to breaking through by each day.
Suddenly, the door of Abel’s potion-making area swung open, and Abel stepped out.
“Master Bennett, how did it go?” Wizard Hume asked desperately.
“Destiny is on our side!” Abel smiled.
“What?” Wizard Hume was confused for a moment, but he soon realized what Abel meant. He gasped in disbelief “you succeeded?”
Abel did not say anything. Instead, he just took out a blue spirit guardian potion, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards WIzard Hume.
Wizard Hume carefully picked up the blue spirit guardian potion. This was totally beyond his expectations. The potion did not only succeed. It was a blue rank potion.
Although he was shocked when he saw Abel’s success rate when he was doing his research, it was nothing compared to actually seeing a blue spirit guardian potion in front of his eyes.
“Master Bennett, from now on, we are friends. You no longer have to be so polite with me!” Wizard Hume said to Abel seriously.
“Wizard Hume, a blue spirit guardian potion, has a higher success rate when it comes to leveling up, but only around 5%. Still, I hope it can come in handy!” Abel smiled.
Wizard Hume was stunned with joy on his face. He laughed and sat down again. Soon, he and Abel began to chat about the fun events of the wizard union.
When Wizard Hume mentioned something about Frost City, Abel grew interested. “Wizard Hume, you said more than 40 elite wizards from the Blizzards were killed. Did you catch the murderer?”
“Murderer? No. The Wizard Union never condemn Wizard Abel as the murder, so the Wizard Union and the Lightning clan were meant to protect him. However, his contracted beast, the stone giant had moved too many law-defying wizards to the point the wizard union could no longer keep them in control, so WIzard Abel had made the right decision to go into hiding!” Wizard Hume sighed.
“The greed of man!” Abel also sighed.
“Master Bennett, do you know what the Lightning clan did afterward? They forcefully demanded all wizard lines to not take any wizards from the Blizzard and raised 2 wizard wars. Finally, all wizards from the Blizzards became on the drift!” Wizard Hume said with a laugh.
Abel felt his heart warm up. Although he left the Lightning clan, the Lightning clan still stayed on his side.
What the Lightning clan did was letting the entire Central Continent know that they were still protecting Abel. Although they could not stop some crazy Law Defying wizards, it was still very useful to elite wizards and most law-defying wizards.
This dramatically reduced Abel’s danger. Even if he met up with some elite wizards, they would not move on him because of greed.
Abel was thinking about how he could return his favor to the Lightning clan. Although there was not much he could do, providing some lite healing potion should be fine.
However, if he just directly give them the potions, people would doubt his identity
