Abe the Wizard - Chapter 1463

Chapter 1463: Strange

The atmosphere in the Central Continent was getting tenser by the day. It was not just on the Warding Wall of Castle Doomsday, but every inch of the land.

Although it had been a long time since a God Rank Knight had attacked, every professional near the Holy Kingdom could sense a horrifying energy lurking within.

A great monster was about to be awakened, and its energy was spreading around uncontrollably, even the ocean felt it.

———

In the Central Temple of the Holy Kingdom…

The Saint met up with Mad Knight Isaac.

“My Saint, I’ve gathered all the information about the strange things that have been happening for the last few days!” Knight Issac bowed.

“What is it?” the Saint gazed at him.

The Central Temple was in control of the Holy Kingdom, but it didn’t manage the details.

“A rain happened in Luna City, but there were no clouds, almost like the raindrops just appeared out of thin air. Afterwards, all the plants began to grow like crazy and now Luna City is trapped. We can only reach them through the Communication Circle!” Knight Issac reported grimly.

…

“It’s a miracle! Luna City needs this to increase their Faith!” A smile appeared on the Saint’s face.

The Saint had a lot of experience, and he knew what it was even without connecting to the Guardian Wings.

“Yes, my Saint!” Knight Issac bowed, and added, “Tana Village, outside of Ash City, was recently struck by giant fireballs from the sky. All fifteen hundred civilians and their livestock were killed, but there was something very strange about those fireballs. They did not burn up any of the plants!”

The Saint’s face sank. God Rank Knight Marlo standing to the side also sensed something strange.

The Saint exchanged gazes with him, as though they both knew something everyone else didn’t.

…

“Knight Issac, Tana Village was not Faithful enough, so they were punished!” the Saint explained.

Knight Issac’s face twitched. Something big was clearly happening but the Saint was trying to hide it. Still, he had no right to question him.

———

More and more strange things followed. For example, water was gushing out from the ground and destroying cities, crops stopped growing, and a sudden pandemic was caused by a mysterious fog.

Reports kept coming into the Central Temple, yet the Saint still acted like nothing was happening.

God Rank Knight Marlo turned and said, “My Saint, the Lord’s energy is having an effect!”

“Yeah, the Lord is too powerful!” A look of excitement emerged on the Saint’s face.

“But an uproar might happen if we keep it a secret!” Knight Marlo added worriedly.

“We need to make sure the Lord is okay, even if the entire Holy Kingdom is sacrificed!” the Saint added helplessly.

Knight Marlo was silent, as he did not agree with the Saint. Although he was loyal to the Demon from Beyond, he was not expecting it to be this crazy.

Not many people knew what was happening in the Central Temple, while the world was heading into the unknown.

More and more people began to die, and the God Rank Holy Knights kept brushing it off. At the same time, they needed to help out with those disasters to stabilize the morale of the people.

———

Half a year went by, and the incidents only got worse as the Demon from Beyond’s energy grew.

Thousands of people were dying by the day, but no one knew why it was happening.

The Saint and the Holy Knights were both happy and annoyed at the same time. They knew their Lord would return soon, but they just couldn’t get a good night’s sleep with all the chaos happening.

——

Meanwhile, Wizard Basham had just killed another flying Legendary sea monster out on the ocean when he sensed an increasing energy from the Central Continent. He immediately knew what it was.

“Demon from Beyond, we will soon meet again. Back in the day I failed to kill you, but now I won’t let it happen again!” he swore to himself.

But his excitement was soon dragged down again, because the Wizard Union still had not given him any updates about the World Stone Heart.

It was his most important weapon, and what gave him the confidence to defeat the Demon from Beyond.

The Demon from Beyond was also around Rank 45, but it wielded a higher form of energy than he did. It was unclear which of them would win if they actually fought.

Also, the Demon had a much longer time than Wizard Basham had to stabilize its power.

Ever since Wizard Basham had reached Rank 45, the limit he had sensed was clearer than ever. Maybe Rank 45 was indeed the highest rank for a wizard!

He had no idea what the next step he should take was.

It was the law of a world. In order to break it, you had to jump out of the world, or obtain the World Stone Heart and become its ruler!

For tens of thousands of years, Wizard Basham had been sure of this!

It was just that he couldn’t return fast enough to search for the World Stone Heart himself.

He kept Flashing, killing any Legendary sea monsters who got in his way. He couldn’t care less about their Legendary light, as the only thing in his mind was getting back to the Central Continent!

———

It has been another few months of training for Abel, and he felt much more closer to his Territories.

Light energy traveled within them now, and he was at the pinnacle of a Half-god. He replenished the Dimension Force needed in his Territories with the Dark Gold Dimension Force in his soul. It now had ten times the range of his Power of the Will.

Each one of his Territories had a range of 140 kilometers with the Hunting Crown, but even without it, the range was greater than any of his God Rank Summons when they were first resurrected.

Still, there was something he couldn’t understand. He was much more powerful than any Half-god wizard when it came to the body and soul, so why was he still a Half-god wizard?

1

His body was more powerful than barbarians of the same rank; his soul was more powerful than any Half-god priests, the experts of souls; and his Power of the Will was much more powerful than any Half-god wizards. It was to his advantage.

Also at the same time, he had three Wizard Patterns with three different Territories, which meant he could dish out the power of three Half-god wizards at once.

However, no one could discern any of this, considering how often he was outshone by his Summons.

Every time Abel was mentioned in this world, his God Rank Summons would come to mind.

He was nothing alone, but with his Summons he was almost invincible!

That’s why no one even batted an eye at the fact that he was still a Half-god.

———

One day Abel was sitting on the Golden Castle balcony contemplating something.

He knew his Wizard Patterns were just a single Intelligence Fruit away from fulfillment.

“Doff, lock down the Battlecry Plateau. If a God Rank dares to enter, kill them!” Abel ordered him.

He then Summoned God Ranks One through Seven to stand guard, Doff’s avatar, Thief God Milton, and even his Legendary Rank Summons.

Even the Treemen hidden in the forest were ready to fight at Doff’s command!

Abel was not paranoid, but he knew a big energy wave would be generated once he started his level-up. He would no longer be able to hide the fact that he was becoming a God Rank!

He notified Headmaster Eugene and the Dragons. If he needed help, the four Dragon Headmasters would be ready to fight.

Since Abel had so many God Rank Summons already and the Dragons wanted to respect his privacy, they did not teleport directly to the Golden Castle.

Normally, all forces on a leveling-up God Rank’s side would come to help protect him, considering how critical the process was.

There were only four forces in the Central Continent with God Ranks, so there was no way the Wizard Union would sit back and let Abel level-up idly.

As for the Holy Kingdom, they might also do something, considering their hatred for Abel.

The God Alliance was on Abel’s side, but Abel did not expect them to do anything. After all, those weak gods were too afraid to even come out of their Kingdoms!
