Abe the Wizard - Chapter 291

Chapter 291: Underground Battle

On a battlefield like this, even with Abel’s commander intuition and power were greatly affected. There was a chance an error might occur If the attack was aimed at him. The surprise attack of the Tainted was very hard to avoid.

Abel tensed up all of a sudden. He got a little overconfident. He forgot there were also large amounts of elite gold, and dark gold hell creatures. They were cunning, vicious, and powerful, unlike those normal ones that he could just play around with.

Abel quickly put on his golden combat qi and frozen armor. Due to his recent increase in strength and man, both of these armors could now also surround Black Wind.

Abel had gained so much strength recently; he was so overconfident that he had entered this unknown danger territory without any protection. Now, he needed some time to self reflect.

“Black Wind!” Abel yelled. He had already arrived right next to the golden Tainted in a flash with his soul connected Black Wind. The Bane Ash was striking right down towards it.

Abel knew very little about staff techniques, so he could only use the Band Ash in his hand like a sword. Every since Abel had entered the Dark Word, he realized most hell creatures could counteract physical impact very well. However, this Bane Ash had some very weird attributes.

+20% attack speed, which could only apply to physical attacks.

+60% damage, which was another physical attack effect when the enemy was directly struck.

+4-6 fire damage was just the same as well.

The master who made this magic staff must have had a weird personality to put so many physical attack attributes in a dark gold magic staff. Maybe he was also a knight with interest in magic like Abel, so he had made a weird dark gold magic staff like this.

Now this magic staff was very suitable for Abel’s current situation. Originally, his physical attacks couldn’t do much, but now every one of his strikes would come along with 5-13% fire damage. Even if the physical impact couldn’t do much, just the fire damage was enough to hurt the golden Tainted.

With Black Wind’s charge as well as the +60% damage, Abel’s strike was quite scary. The attacked golden Tainted directly flew out with this strike. It’s heavy body smashed against the wall behind, with a burnt up wound.

Before it even had time to get up, a pattern flashed on the tip of Abel’s Bane Ash. A firebolt flew out and directly exploded on to the golden Tainted.

As the golden Tainted screamed, 10 other surrounding Tainted madly ran towards Abel. They wanted to help upon hearing the call of their leader.

Abel changed his weapon again. A knight spear appeared in his hand as charged, and swiped horizontally towards those Tainted. Abel’s knight spear was a magic weapon. It had a knockback effect, so Abel didn’t need to use much force at all. He only used a special technique by keep changing the direction. On top of the scary speed of Black Wind, every single Tainted in front of him was knocked back immediately.

Although the golden Tainted was also slowly retreating, Black Wind had appeared right next to him again in a flash. His Bane Ash struck again and brought about the same amount of fire damage.

Abel’s only mission now was to not let the golden Tainted get away. As long as it could keep it at close distance, this golden Tainted could never unleash their ultimate power.

At the same time, a Firebolt spell pattern ignited by his druid soul on the skill tree appeared in front of his chest. Afterward, a Firebolt shot out. Only Abel, with all his attributes, could shoot a Firebolt as fast as that.

These Firebolts were made for those other Tainted, and they were waiting just when those Tainted were about to charge again.

Meanwhile, Abel did not stop attacking with his Bane Ash. Now, he could finally see the maximum benefit of his long time practiced multitasking. Without the support of that golden Tainted, those other Tainted were rubbish in a close battle. Soon, they had been whipped clean, and the golden Tainted had also turned into Abel’s soul potion ingredient in a horrific scream.

He threw a few intermediate mana gem into his Monster portal bag. He had lost 2 spirit wolves the moment they entered this underground tunnel. Now, these 2 spirit wolves could no longer help him in the next 2 days. Abel really wanted to throw a perfect gem into his monster portal bag to speed up the spirit wolves’ recovery. However, he was also afraid that it would cause an explosion, so he decided to just save this experiment for the future when he has more monster portal bags.

Since Abel had lost 2 main fighting power, he had to move more carefully. Now, he had to let the ravens examine the condition ahead before moving forward.

The ravens alerted his druid soul that there were a few hundred hell creatures ahead. Abel couldn’t help but slow down his steps. First, he commanded the ravens to attack and disrupt the formation of those hell creatures through the druid soul.

In the corner ahead, chaotic sounds began to emerge. There were also some sounds of arrows flying through the air. It seemed like there were some archers.

Now, all Abel could do was close body battle again. They were inside a cave, so the long-range Harry bow could not fully unleash its power. Abel speculated as soon as he made a turn, he would enter the range of the archers, so he needed to get close as soon as possible and attack.

After Abel put on his 2 layers of defense, including the golden combat qi armor and frozen armor, he began to command the attack. The 4 spirit guardian knights and 3 spirit wolves disappeared on the spot, and the poison creeper swam below.

Upon hearing some shocking screams, Black Wind dashed out with a speed that was almost as fast as the flash of a spirit wolf. It appeared right in front of his enemies. They were all skeleton archers. These scary archers could relentlessly send out a rain of arrows, but of course only from a distance.

There was no way Abel would give them this distance. But still, those skeleton archers could use their arrows to fight back. Since they were made out of skeletons, they were also not afraid of death.

Abel’s main soul did not attack. Instead, he was focused on finding the golden leader. Meanwhile, his druid soul was busy unleashing a Charging bolt from the magic staff in his hand. A large sea of lighting rushed towards the skeletons. The place was filled with flashing lights, not sure if it was the lightning lighting up the skeletons, or the white bones skeletons reflecting the lighting.

“Found it!” Abel saw a golden skeleton archer hiding behind a sea of normal ones. Its bow was pulled, and it was aiming directly towards the spirit guardian knight captain.

Abel then signed the spirit guardian knight captain to disappear through his power of the will. Almost immediately, it appeared right next to the golden skeleton archer. A flash of blue light followed from the chest of the spirit guardian knight captain, covering all the skeleton archers around in a layer of frost. Their speed had been reduced dramatically, but that golden one seemed to have recovered quickly after a while.
