Chapter 992: 992

As the pure white glow slowly subsided, Knight Apo sensed his body changing. All combat qi within him transformed into the pure white holy energy, and his soul gained the ability to use the ‘preaching’ and ‘fire enchantment’ aura, as well as the fighting skill ‘sacrifice’ and ‘heavy strike.’

Those skills directly appeared in his soul, so he didn’t need to learn them. All he needed was to level it up through practice.

This was the scariest thing about a god’s blessing. Although all holy knights were picked by God, the ones who didn’t receive a blessing would need to learn every skill, and this process could take up to a few years for each skill.

The blessed knights could skip this step entirely and do a skill automatically through the soul.

Still, this was only until the rank of the blessing was achieved.

Knight Apo’s eyes were filled with honor. He was so excited. He almost cried when he sensed the rank of his blessing was an elite knight.

This meant that his journey in becoming an elite knight would be extremely smooth, and nothing could stop him.

The details of each skill appeared in his mind, so all he did was sit in his training room and look through the skills in his soul.

Meanwhile, Abel was 1000 meters above the ground. His face looked a little awkward. He could sense everything this knight Apo was going through from the crystal angel statue.

If he was unhappy with knight Apo, he could directly take away knight Apo’s ability or end his life.

Or in other words, he had full control over the destiny of this holy knight. Although Apo had the same ability and used the same holy energy as other holy knights, the gods they were loyal to were completely different.

Of course, it was only because the crystal angel statue was connected to the god of the Evil kingdom. Unless if other gods investigate, no one would be able to tell.

If knight Apo never ran into Abel, he too would think that he was just like every holy knight.

At that moment, Abel got a message from the crystal angel statue. If he wanted to meet knight Apo, knight Apo would immediately need to kneel and get ready to sacrifice everything for him.

On top of that, this loyalty would only deepen with time, and knight Apo’s preaching would become the most valuable dark gold energy for him.

Compared to the dark gold energy his rank 18 knight soul in the crystal angel statue was giving out, knight Apo’s preaching was at least a few times more powerful.

Even the rank 18 knight soul could preach needlessly 24 hours a day. Knight Apo could still double that.

At first, Abel regretting wasting strand of dark gold energy on this knight, but that was not the case. Instead, he made a profit.

If he gave out the soul of all 2000 holy knights, his crystal angel statue would get even more dark old energy. His crystal angel statue was growing extremely slow. It could take up to tens of years until its energy was fully fulfilled.

Abel began to get to work and picked out the youngest and most talented followers.

However, after blessing another 5 followers, he sensed that things might not be as simple as he thought. Each follower took around 10 minutes to bless, so blessing 2000 of them would take a long time.

Of course, this was also to do with his age. If he was a few hundred years old wizard, spending 10 years on this was like nothing.

Abel had only been training for a few years, so each second was extremely precious, and he didn’t want to waste any of it.

After all, this strong will, along with his endless resources, was what allowed him to progress so quickly.

“I am really just finding trouble for myself!” Abel scratched his head and sighed.

He sat a few standards and passed it down to the emotionless druid soul. It was the best in regards to taking care of repetitive tasks like this.

Therefore, the druid soul began to go through the prayers and blessed them according to Abel’s standard.

Abel felt his heart lift. All he needed now was to wait for the good news from his druid soul.

However, he soon discovered another troubling thing. He could enter the Dark World before his druid soul finished the task.

He let out another long sigh. Maybe it was time to make something through the traditional method, going to the alchemy room.

After all, there were a lot of light healing potions he needed to make.

After seeing how scary the Evil Kingdom was in the front line, he knew a full-on battle between them would mean life or death.

If the Central Continent lost, he would become just like Apo, submitting to the god-like a helpless bug. He would rather die at that point.

He had a heart unlike any other in this world, a heart with the desire for freedom. This was why he yearned for power, the power to seek true freedom.

He came from a fair world. Although a wealth disparity did exist, it was nothing to the class suppression of this world.

Luckily, he was born to a small noble family and later became the most powerful figure in the Holy Continent. Finally, he arrived at the central Continent and became a true power in both ability and status. Just when he thought he was free, he discovered the world of gods. Freedom became a dream once again, but one day he would wake up from it.

“Maybe I can show more potions and give this world more ways to combat the Evil Kingdom!” Abel mumbled.

For battles, the light healing potions did the trick with 90 points of health through each use.

This applied to any being regardless of their ability. To an intermediate wizard, 90 points of health could save them from the verge of death, and for a law-defying wizard, all they needed was a few extra bottles since they needed at least a few hundred points of health to recover. It was a law, and it separated the potion of the Dark World from the potion of the Central Continent, which was only effective according to your rank.

Therefore, the potions from the Dark World were drastically superior to the potions in this world, not to mention the lack of potion ingredients in this world.

Take the elves’ best healing potion, the natural life potion, for example. Its main ingredient was the water of life, and its production was so rare it was almost unthinkable.

The creation of Abel’s light healing potion ended the need for natural life potion, which freed up the water of life to be used on other more valuable things.

Abel wanted to take out some mana replenishing potion, but things like that didn’t exist in this world, and the mana recovery rate was always very slow, so he thought for a long time.

Not all wizards had a sea amount of mana like Abel. In fact, other wizards in his rank were almost nothing compared to him.

A mana replenishing potion could directly impact the fighting ability of a wizard. If a wizard only had the limit of 20 spells before all their mana was drained, those potions could allow them to fight forever.

Abel took out the Dark World potion guide and began to flick through. Soon, he found the perfect candidate.

The ‘mana potion,’ each bottle could give a wizard, priest, and druid 160 points of mana, but it could only give Barbarians 90 points of mana and Holy knights 120 points of mana.

Each replenishing process took 5 seconds, and it could be used continuously.

Although the mana potion was not perfect, Abel didn’t care since the full recovery potion he used helped him recover mana as well.

Most importantly, there were many ingredients for this mana potion outside of the Kurast Dock’s forest being nourished under the mana environment of the Dark World.

He already had some portions of it in his Varaya’s ring, so he could start making the mana potion immediately.

Abel was no longer making potions one by one. Instead, he upsized his alchemy bottles and made 20 bottles at once.

Of course, he would not use the Dark World’s crystal glass to store those potions. He took many potion bottles from the alchemy union, and he would only save those from the Dark World for the most valuable potions.

It was his first attempt, but all he needed was to ignite his world stone, and the process would be perfect. Just like that, a batch of mana potion and light healing potion emerged.

He was feeling good today. His soul has grown after escaping from a legendary knight who made his potion make speed even faster. By the next morning, 400 bottles of mana potions and months of light healing potions were made.

He no longer needed to go to the wizard union. All he needed was to take out his wizard badge and place it on his alchemy bench to connect to the wizard union’s exchange system.

He put forward 100 bottles of mana potions and listed them as 10 beginner light gems each.

Almost instantly, all 100 bottles were brought up.

He was not expecting them to go that fast. It was early morning. Not many people were on the system.

Abel didn’t know, but all big organizations had someone monitoring the exchange system 24 hours a day. Even the wizard union set up an alert for Abel’s listing.

A lucky elite wizard from the Frozen ground successfully exchanged 100 bottles of mana potions. Since master Bennett’s work was so in demand, light gems had become a common currency in the system.

The wizard from the Frozen Ground did not even look at what potion it was. He just snatched it up immediately as soon as he saw the name master Bennett.

After he submitted the light gems, 100 bottles of blue mana potion were teleported to him. His eyes were filled with surprise.

“What potion is this?” It was only at this moment he decided to have a look at the description of the potion. When he saw the name, his jaw dropped.

Something with the ability to replenish mana was never heard of in the Central Continent.
