Chapter 135: Morton’s Observation Records

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Abel was puzzled. His heart immediately began to ponder, what could be the connection between this world and the world of Diablo? Why are runes and the magic spells so similar between these two worlds?

“As for other novice wizards, my advice is to learn only a few spells that would be useful to you. But for you Abel, if you want to learn them, I can teach you all of them as I have almost the entire collection of spells for novice wizards.” Wizard Morton had seen Abel casting the “Fireball” spell, and his instantaneous speed proved Abel’s unmatched talent.

“Thank you, teacher! Abel thanked him sincerely.

“My condition is that I will not teach you another spell until you have mastered one. Also, if you don’t complete your training and learning program, I will stop you from learning new spells.” Wizard Morton looked at Abel gravely, then added, “Now choose one spell to learn for your second spell.”

When it comes to choosing a spell, Abel thought of the four types of spells, and each spell had its use. The fire spell –“Warmth” could help regenerate magical ability. Although it could not regenerate a significant amount, mana was still extremely important to wizards and made Abel wanted to learn this spell. However, the magical power concentration in Rogue encampment was many times higher than the magic tower, which meant recovering magical ability through meditation was also much faster. Therefore, Abel wasn’t in a rush to learn this spell.

In regards to the two ice spells, Iceball and Frozen armor, one was for attack and one for defense. Frozen armor was a way to turn your defense into an attack. If your opponent was attacking you from a close distance, they would be frozen by the ice magic power from frozen armor. Abel was very fond of this spell, and it fit too perfectly with the ability of a Knight. During a charging formation, the only thing you could do was an attack, making defense very hard. However, with the “frozen armor,” an attack by an enemy would backfire on to the enemy himself.

The electric spell “lightning bomb” would also be very useful. It could attack a group of enemies. Once the spell reached an elite level, you could unleash strikes and strikes of lightning strikes, electrocuting patches, and patches of enemies. Therefore, choosing this spell was also a good idea.

For a while, Abel had some difficulty in choosing his next spell, but when he looked back, he decided it was his own safety that was the most important, as the defensive spell was able to defend against his enemies. Although it was only a close-range defense, it has greatly improved his ability to survive in combination with his abilities as an intermediate knight.

“Teacher, I have decided that I want to learn Frozen armor,” Abel said to Wizard Morton.

“Haha, I knew you’d choose this one. Frozen armor is the only defensive spell a novice wizard possesses. The sooner you learn it, the sooner you’ll gain its protection,” Morton said with a laugh. He was very pleased with Abel’s choice. Instead of focusing on the powerful attack spells, Abel chose a defensive spell. Throughout Wizard Morton’s life, he understood that true wizards were the ones who could survive.

“I’ve got it ready for you. Here you are. There is the pattern and spell for the frozen armor. Wizard Morton took a parchment scroll from his pocket and handed it to over Abel.

“Teacher, I will learn it as soon as possible. I will be going now.” Abel bowed to take the scroll, and with a wave of the wizard Morton’s hand. Abel promptly disappeared from the eleventh floor and instantly reappeared on the stairs of the tenth floor.

As Abel returned to the ninth floor, he still had some time to kill before lunch on the first floor. He took out the Morton’s Observation Records and began reading it.

“Wait, what is this? Abel saw something that was familiar. Wasn’t this the jade from the wolf garden last time?

Morton’s Observation Records wrote: Peace Jade. The wizards have a large power of the will, which makes evil fantasy easier to arise. Evil fantasy is an illusion created through the unlimited exaggeration of a person’s innermost desire. It is the worst enemy to a Wizard’s progress. Peace Jade has a soul calming effect, which could lower the chances of evil fantasy arising and makes a Wizard’s progress smoother. Peace Jade is also commonly used in other elite occupations. It had a wide range of use, so it holds a high value. Especially the heart of the Jade, it is where most of its power is concentrated, it can lower the occurrence of evil fantasy to the max. Therefore, Peace Jade is a treasure that every occupation cherishes if they want to increase their abilities.

Then, it continued to describe the details of the Peace Jade and the heart of the Peace Jade, teaching people how to identify an authentic one.

According to the observation records, Abel learned that the jade floor tile he had taken from the room of the Wolf trooper on the wolf’s garden was the Peace Jade. It was an important aid to the practice of the wizards, especially that jade pillow, which, as described in Morton’s Observation Records, was made of a complete the heart of the Peace Jade.

Abel was lamenting the Wolf rider’s large collection of treasures in the human world. From what Morton’s Observation Records had stated, that wolf rider was preparing the big piece of a jade pillow to help his promotion as a wolf rider captain. This item was identified as a treasure by Wizard Morton in Morton’s Observation Records, so it was probably extremely valuable. That was why Abel must not tell anyone about what he did in the wolf garden. Until the day he reached his full ability, he had to keep this secret far away from the public by all means necessary.

With that in mind, Abel quickly opened the Morton’s Observation Records to search for clues, and sure enough, in the introduction to the trees in the book, he found some information about wood.

Dragon saliva wood is only produced in the dragon deep, made of dragon saliva from the dragon saliva tree. Anyone who came into long-term contact with the tree was able to strengthen the power of the will subtly.

Whilst it was only a short sentence, it showed the importance of the dragon saliva wood. Before, the only method that a wizard could use to strengthen their power of the will was through meditation practices. That took years to accumulate, little by little. But now, Abel had discovered this new method.

Abel couldn’t help marveling at how much the Wolf rider had paid to acquire such good things. As far as Abel knew, the Dragon’s Pool was located in the depths of the bi-monthly forest, protected by the elves on the outside, while on the inside lived the most powerful creature in the Holy Continent, the dragon.

According to the legend, the dragon was a creature created by the elite elves, to protect the elite elves’ descendants from intrusions. Furthermore, if the elite elves needed back up, the dragon would send a powerful force to support them. However, if you wanted to turn the dragon’s saliva into dragon saliva wood, it must be as hard as pulling a tooth out of a tiger.

Abel obviously didn’t know what the crazy things the crazy wolf rider captain did in order to get a promotion to become a head wolf rider captain. The wolf rider captain had entered a forbidden place, the Double Moon forest with Wolf’s treasure Kong Kong spirit portal bag. He then sneaked into the dragon cave and to acquire just enough dragon saliva wood. The wolf rider captain narrowly escaped the hunt from the dragon, and all of his allies ended up killed.

In regards to that pillow made entirely out of the heart of a Peace Jade, the wolf rider captain had stolen it from the fox clan’s headmaster in the orc empire. As soon as he had gotten the information that the fox clan’s headmaster possessed a pillow made entirely out of the heart of a Peace Jade.

The fox clan was the most sacrificial race among the orcs. Stealing things from the fox clan’s headmaster was even crazier than entering the dragon’s cave. Although the Wolf rider captain had hidden his identity, he was afraid of becoming a suspect. Therefore, under the protection of the Wolf clan, the wolf rider captain was driven to the human world, living a life of survival.

Abel’s heart was burning. He had no idea that he had acquired so many treasures from a single act of revenge against the wolf riders and that the portal bag had been acquired during his previous attack too. Moreover, each item within the bag seemed to be very useful as well as extremely valuable too.

When Abel thought of the Kong Kong spirit portal bag, he immediately began searching for it on Morton’s Observation Records. The record was like a Wikipedia for all things that were related to a wizard, as long as Morton had heard of it before, it would all be recorded on the chronicle. Not only so, looking for things on the record was also very simple. For example, if Abel was searching for a portal bag, all he needed to do was also find the section of the introduction of portal items, and he would be able to see everything related to it.
