Abe the Wizard Chapter 1150 - : Getting Crowdy

Chapter 1150: Getting Crowdy

As soon as one item with forgery material engraved onto it began to change, all the cla.s.s holders within the golden castle started to take notice. Sounds of fright could be heard everywhere. They didn’t know that the appearance of a grandmaster alchemist would just change the alchemy materials. What happened here was basically a miracle. Everyone was glad to just be here over at the golden castle. They made it on time to witness someone that no one saw before, and that also boosted their alchemy items.

Of course, not everyone was enthusiastic. Some of the cla.s.s holders that came late already had their promotion qi withdrawn. Their alchemy items did not resonate with Abel’s rune, and thus they didn’t make use of the promotion.

When Abel opened his eyes, he noticed that something was different from before. From what he could sense, he could tell that there were alchemy items within the 1500 meter range all around. He didn’t feel the same way any time before. From what he could sense, the entire castle itself was a giant structure that was made with countless alchemy items.

Before, the alchemy items remained hidden so that they couldn’t be pa.s.sed through with the power of the Will. If they were regular circles, only the most crucial parts could be created with the alchemy ingredients. Within the many materials that were hidden, it’d be impossible to figure this out without breaking the inside apart. Now, however, he could sense every single ingredient that was related to alchemy. Or, more specifically, he could sense the runes himself.

Very quickly, Abel could feel that the “Starlight defensive circle” and the Fire Tooth Fort on it were attracted by his rune. If anything, the battle fort was no longer the same as when he couldn’t figure out its components. He could now see that all the ingredients were made with alchemy ingredients, the type that could bend their shapes and use up energy to repair themselves. They also possessed a high defensive power in that they could generate any spell circles on their own.

It would be hard to imagine what those people from ancient times did to get so many alchemy materials. In the world today, all alchemy ingredients were small-sized. The larger ones required, such as the one for the skys.h.i.+ps, would often need it for the main control circle, and that was only something that a master alchemist like Abel could accomplish. As for the battle fort, which was a super large structure, they were all made with ingredients that were already used at least once before.

It was no wonder the materials were all made artificially. If there was still anything that Abel wasn’t sure of, it’d be the recipes that were used for the alchemy runes. For his current level, it’d be hard to create the ingredients that were the same level. Now that his ingredients were boosted, he knew it himself that the same thing must’ve happened to all the cla.s.s holders nearby. However, he was the one receiving the most benefit.

Many cla.s.s holders would only possess a few small-sized alchemy items. Most of them were rings, necklaces, and chains. They did receive their buffs, but there was a certain limit. What the golden castle received was much, much more than those. For instance, all the circles that were inside the golden castle were boosted. A total of 20% defensive capability was added. More importantly, the battle forts that were used to build the starlight defensive circle received a boost as well. The materials were reinforced to the point that maybe the sacred knight’s “divine’ crystal” might just not be able to do any damage to it.

Abel couldn’t help but shake his head, “We’re going out! The promotion’s been quite major!”

As a matter of fact, the promotion he received this time surpa.s.sed all the ones before. Everyone he was connected to came to congratulate him for it. It was the same for his friends. By this point, the hallroom inside the golden castle could no longer contain all the guests. The other side doors all opened on their own. The small guest meeting rooms were opened. The dining rooms and the restaurants were open. All the guests could finally find their place.

Abel didn’t go ahead towards the hallroom. He went to the bathrooms near the training room. Because of all his sweat, he made sure he was cleaning himself enough to meet with everyone who was here to see him. He washed his body and changed into an elven robe, something that was standard for the elven druids. The point wasn’t to make himself look good or to receive some sort of buff. Rather, it was just to make a disguise over his dark-world equipment.

Abel spoke, “Bring me to the hallroom, circle spirit!”

Under white light, his shadow appeared in the hallroom. As soon as he appeared, the cla.s.s holders around him quickly found him.

They all began to cheer for him, “Congratulations, Master Bennett!”

Abel smiled and bowed, “Thank you! Thank you! Sorry, all, I couldn’t make it to treat you. I just had a promotion.”

Master Balfour was too happy to care, “Grandmaster! Can I, um, touch your grandmaster’s rune?”

It wasn’t like Master Balfour didn’t believe that it wasn’t there. He just wanted to touch it. Abel understood why he would be this enthusiastic, so he didn’t say anything and just unleashed his grandmaster’s rune.

Master Balfour screamed, “Wow! What! I can’t believe it! The grandmaster’s rune!”

As for Master Muir and Master Nolan, they were also just wandering in amazement. Their youth made it extra motivating for them to know that perhaps, one day, they could reach where Abel was at now.

A loud voice silenced many others, “Master Bennett! To think that you’ve become a grandmaster in just a few months… I … On behalf of the Wizard Union, I’ve come here to congratulate you!”

No guests dared to express their dissatisfaction. They could see that five legendary wizards were standing in the air. The one that was speaking to Abel was Wizard Dolan, who just arrived a few months earlier.

Abel smiled and bowed to the legendary wizards, “Wizard Dolan, Wizard Golan, Wizard Doran, Wizard Lakin, Wizard Luke, it is an honour to see you here. So sorry about the mess.”

He was a bit embarra.s.sed to look at the other guests nearby. They were all cla.s.s holders representing the different influential groups on the central continent. Because of how many there were, he’s no longer even capable of finding places to set the legendary wizards. Of course, apart from the public places, he could see that some of the private rooms were still locked. He wouldn’t want to use those places to treat the guest, however, because that’d be too rude.

Wizard Dolan stood in the air, “Everyone! Grandmaster Bennett just received a promotion. Some more time is still needed for reinforcement. Before Grandmaster Bennett’s done, the Wizard Union will go ahead to host a promotion ceremony. Please leave now if you can! We’ll make sure to invite everyone when the ceremony opens!”

No one objected to the idea. There were too many people, and it wasn’t like Abel could speak to most of them. They only came here to see congratulations, so they could just leave when they were gone. With that, the guests bowed to Abel and left. At the same time, some of the guests that were sending the gifts promptly dropped theirs as they followed Butler Meyer and the other three followers’ instructions.

Wizard Hutton cried out as he bowed to Abel, “Grandmaster Bennett! His Majesty wants you to visit the dwarves some time!”

Abel quickly replied, “Of course! I’ll be there soon!”

By the way, no one mentioned anything about the gifts, not even Wizard Hutton with his 15 battle forts. The guests were just leaving. Abel couldn’t help but let out a long breath in relief.

He bowed and invited the five wizards in the air, “Come over here, please.”

On the side was the guest meeting room. The guests inside were already starting to leave. The half-elven servants hurried themselves up to tidy everything. The five legendary wizards looked at each other and dropped from the sky. They were walking into the guest meeting room with Abel. They really did their part to acknowledge Abel. They were treating Abel as their equal. Before, Abel was “just” a very prominent wizard that could supply the light recovery potions and the mana potions. Now, things were going in a completely different direction now that he was a grandmaster potion master. As a matter of fact, no one’s ever told him that a grandmaster alchemist was the same in status as a legendary combat cla.s.s holder.

Abel smiled, “Thank you, I must say. I wouldn’t know how to provide food to them now that there were so many of them!”

Abel was just joking when he said that. That made all the guests laugh. The mood was getting more relaxed. The five wizards were all inside the guest meeting room. Although the five wizards were trying to suppress the essence, it did make the guests feel a bit tenser. When the five wizards went inside the guest meeting room, the servants were also starting to serve things slower because of it. Abel had to tell them to leave.

Wizard Dolan placed a badge on the table, “Grandmaster Bennett, now that five of us are here, we’re representing the Wizard Union to invite you to become the honorary elder of the Wizard Union.”

Abel could feel the goodwill of Wizard Dolan. He could also see that the other four were smiling at him.

Abel put the badge in his hands, “If I may ask, what missions would you a.s.sign to an honorary elder?”

Wizard Dolan explained, “Nothing, really. Honorary elders of the Wizard Union are just supposed to have more access. From this point on, Grandmaster Bennett, if you want something to be done, the Wizard Union will make sure to do it for you!”

Abel was quite perplexed. The Wizard Union was quite strange for doing something like this. Well, that was only if he knew about how significant it’d be for him to become a grandmaster from such an early age when literally no one else managed to accomplish that before.

Wizard Laking smiled, “I’ll make it clear for you, Grandmaster Bennett. If you happen to run into something else that’s similar to Snow Spirit Mountain, do make sure that you’re not solving it on your own. This is not to help your enemies, but the Wizard Union wants to protect your safety at all given chances. Your enemy is ours, so we’ll make sure to send those whom we feel comfortable sending to clear off your enemies for you.”

The Wizard Union would not risk the safety of a grandmaster alchemist, even if he was a very competent fighter himself, by exposing him to any sort of fight. As a matter of fact, Abel’s worth was already much higher different than before. He used to be able to bring three legendary wizards to do any mission for him, but from this point onward, it’d simply be impossible for him to take part in anything.

Abel picked up the badge and placed it inside his portal bag, “I understand now. I’m perfectly willing to accept becoming an honorary elder.”

Wizard Laking laughed out loudly, “You’ll become one of us then! Remember, Grandmaster Bennett, whether you are willing or not willing to let someone else go after your target, the Wizard Union will also give you full support. You will have all the rights in settling your affairs, but we will not turn down anything that it is you may need our help with.”

During this time, Abel’s follower, Druid Joseph, started to come in and bring the water spirit fruit juice for all of them. They then backed away humbly.

Wizard Dolan raised the cup and smiled, “For Grandmaster Bennett, our honorary elder!’

The other wizards raised their cups, “For Grandmaster Bennett!”

Abel raised his cup, “For our friends.h.i.+p!”

Something about Abel’s word choice made the legendary wizards very pleased. It was almost like what he said had given them a lot of benefits.
