Abel reached out to grab the spell guide and quickly flipped through it. A dark excitement emerged from his heart. Perhaps no one was interested in this spell guide because it only had 2 spells.
One was the ‘skeleton resurrection’ spell. It was different from the method Abel knew. It was the version where you tortured a live fighter into a skeleton. This kind of spell could only act as a reference for a Wizard’s research. Even if they were not afraid of the damage of death qi, all humans in the Holy Continent would come after you if you had really summoned a skeleton this way.
The second spell was the ‘skeleton support.’ It was the spell that Abel always wanted. It could increase a skeleton’s ability in the most well rounded way–both their life force and attacking power would increase.
The reason he flipped through the book so quickly was that he didn’t want Head Commander Bodley to think he was trying to remember the details of the spell guide, but still, Head Commander Bodley could see what he was doing.
Abel sighed in his heart. He had only quickly flipped over this spell guide, but he had already remembered every little detail.
But you couldn’t blame Abel. He didn’t expect his little piece of world stone to be this powerful. Just a fourth of it made him superior to any normal human.
Although there were not many pages to this orc deity spell guide, there were countless magic patterns and vast amounts of tiny descriptions. Just the spell patterns were complicated enough. When Abel was first learning spells, he had spent countless hours just to remember the patterns.
Even though Abel had remembered everything in this spell guide, he could not just decline this exchange. Head Commander Bodley was his war mate at the end of the day, and Abel did not lack in stuff for exchange anyway.
Afterward, Abel placed the orc deity spell guide on the table and turned to Head Commander Bodley “Head Commander Bodley, this guide is useful to me. What are you after?”
“Wizard k3516, you can give me some magical gear or potions!” Head Commander Bodley knew Abel was wealthy by looking at his ‘Fire Enchantment’ magic staff, or that orc deity poison defusing poison antidote. Normal people didn’t have those. Therefore he just let Abel decide whatever he wanted to give out.
Abel thought for a while and took out a knight sword from his portal bag. “Take a look at this knight sword and tell me what you think!”
No matter what Head Commander Bodley was thinking, Abel really didn’t want to take advantage of this situation. Still, he couldn’t just take out most of his gears. This failed knight sword with a skull gem was the best choice.
Head Commander Bodley picked up the sword, and he immediately knew it was not a magic sword. He felt a little bit disappointed at first, but he soon regained himself. Exchanging an orc deity spell guide for a powerful Wizard’s fondness was still a great deal.
“Wait!” He suddenly realized something clearly different about this knight sword as he picked it up.
He quickly held the sword closer to his eyes. Although he was not a blacksmith, he still knew a thing or two about weapons after long years of using them. The material used on this sword was definitely not 100 skills.
“Wizard k3516, is this knight sword made out of condensed iron?” Head Commander Bodley asked in confusion.
Even as a head commander, using a sword made out of condensed iron was still too much of a luxury. In the past, he only heard of people using natural condensed iron to make a dagger; no one had ever made such a big knight sword from it. He was certain of that.
The condensed iron used in this sword could increase the power of at least 10 normal knight swords. He was stunned by Abel’s generosity.
“Head Commander Bodley, you really have a good pair of eyes, this sword really was made with condensed iron. Although it is not a magic sword, it is not a normal knight sword ether!” Said Abel with a smile.
“This sword has special abilities?” Head Commander Bodley felt his heart lift. It was already a lot to take in just from the fact that this sword was made out of condensed iron. Any extra special ability would shoot its values up by miles. He felt like his orc deity spell guide could no longer compete with the value of this sword.
“Other than being sharper and stronger than normal knight swords, this sword can also steal 2% life and 1% mana from your enemy!” Abel explained.
Head Commander Bodley’s hand began to shake. He almost dropped the sword. This was almost an impossible ability to a head commander, so you could just imagine how excited he was.
What was the most needed thing to a head Commander?
Was attacking the most powerful defense?
No, Mana was the most needed thing for a Head Commander. With mana, a Head Commander could unleash the powerful Head Commander ability’ Charge.’ There were countless “charge’ techniques in the Holy Continent, and all came from some unknown inheritance.
A ‘charge’ allowed a head commander to face an intermediate wizard, but their naturally low mana was one of the main reasons they couldn’t use this technique very often.
Therefore, the best weapon, to a head commander, was one that could help them absorb mana. However, Head Commander Bodley was confused about why Abel didn’t call such a powerful weapon a magic weapon.
Of course, a magic weapon needed to meet certain criteria to Abel. This sword could not be recognized by the Horadric Cube, so it was not a magic weapon to him.
After Head Commander Bodley calmed himself down, he said to Abel in a serious tone, “k3516, my orc deity spell guide is inferior to this knight sword. If you want to exchange it, please tell me what else you want!”
Abel knew Head Commander Bodley was a real inherited knight who had undergone knight training. These knights would put their reputation in front of everything, so no matter how much Head Commander Bodley liked this sword, he would not exchange it with anything inferior.
“How about this? I need some of those little skulls you find on deities or some bone made portal objects. Just give me as much as you can!” Said Abel with a smile.
Head Commander Bodley let out a breath of relief after hearing Abel’s request. Normally, wizards asked for extremely high value materials. Although those little skulls and bone made portal objects were not worthless, it was the lowest value thing on the mission board.
“Wizard K3516, I need some time to prepare!” Head Commander Bodley hesitated a little and said,
“No problem, I need to go to my mission now, I’ll leave this sword to you first!” Said Abel with a nod.
“Don’t worry. I will quickly gather everything you need!” Said Head Commander Bodley grabbing the knight sword tightly in his hand. He had a strong urge to test this sword out immediately.
After the exchange, Abel put away the orc deity spell guide and arrived at a public short distance teleportation circle by the side of the mission hall.
Long distance teleportation was tightly regulated in Miracle City due to the city’s security. As a military based city, you wouldn’t even find it’s location without a military card, let alone teleport here.
Abel stood on the short distance teleportation circle, and a glow emerged from his military card. He scanned it with his power of the will and ignited the circle. At the same time, he realized he was able to select the Miracle Wall as his destination.
With his destination confirmed, and Abel vanished from the teleportation circle in a flash.
