Chapter 1216: Level Up
“The legends are true; the summons of druids really can fly!’ Druid Lendo gasped as he looked towards the flying grey bear.
Abel scanned the grey beat with his power of the will. It was also made out of 75% energy, just like his body.
This was all because of the special bond a summon possesses with its owner.
Abel commanded the grey bear to strike the ground, and it immediately slammed its claw down. Bang!
Luckily the golden floor was filled with magic circles with the strengthening of the 5-star magic circle, so the grey bear had no chance of damaging it.
Abel just wanted to test out its power, but it was definitely not as strong as his other summon, legendary knight Wale.
After all, knights were masters of close combat.
“Legendary Bennett, the strength of a grey bear is not in its attack, but it’s stamina. They can be our strongest shields and the enemies biggest distraction!” Big druid Lendo explained after seeing a disappointed look on Abel’s face.
However, he did not know how strong the ground of the golden castle was, so he had underestimated the power of Abel’s grey bear.
Abel smiled. It seemed like the purpose of a grey bear was to buy time, which was doable since Abel had countless recovery potions.
The grey bear had the fastest recovery out of all of his summons, so it would also be perfect for defense.
“Big Druid Lendo, let me test out the other summons!” Abel gazed at his flying grey bear and said.
He then retrieved his grey bear in the monster ring and summoned three mad wolves.
Their strength was speed, and defense was their weakness, which was a total opposite to the grey bear.
The reason many Druids love mad wolves was that they could ride them during battle.
The only thing faster than mad wolves were half-transparent spirit wolves, but still, Abel preferred walking.
If he had to ride something, he would pick Black Wind anytime anyway.
After summoning the three mad wolves, Abel surrounded them with his power of will.
Big druid Lendo also looked closely at the mad wolves, just like the grey bear.
He was watching history in the making. The elves would document everything that happened.
After rounds of documentation, Abel finally summoned all his summons, and Big Druid Lendo left the Golden Castle with an excited look on his face.
He immediately returned to the royal elves and reported that Grandmaster Bennett had become a legendary Druid.
Meanwhile, Abel appeared above the starlight protection circle with a flash. What he was about to do was a secret.
He summoned his mud monster, his most common priest summon, but it didn’t have much attack power. However, it had one unique ability—slow down.
Even as a legendary, his mud monster did not look much different. Its mud only got a little tougher.
It could not even fly like the grey bear and mad wolves.
Abel was disappointed. Although he rarely used a priest summons in the Holy Continent, it wasn’t as relevant if it couldn’t fly.
“That’s not right, my skeletons are combined. They are not like the skeletons of normal priests!”
He then summoned his 12 spirit guardian knights, but they were just as hopeless.
Abel began to search for a way to help them level up from his druid soul. He did not have much experience when it came to this, and he never saw anything about it in the Central Continent.
His spirit guardian knights were abnormal summons. They were the combination of his druid and priest profession, and he could only do something like this because his ignorant soul somehow possessed both death qi and natural forces.
If another person tried to do this, they would be squished to death by the two energies.
Just when Abel was feeling hopeless, an idea suddenly struck him. He immediately summoned a new spirit wolf.
Since spirit wolves were an assistant to his spirit guardian knight, they had to be replaced after they died.
He then directed his power of the will towards the spirit guardian knight captain and slowly began to separate it from its spirit wolf, but it was not easy since their bodies were basically merged together.
The spirit guardian knight captain was his oldest spirit guardian knight. It had taken countless soul potions, and it was highly intelligent.
After rounds of hard effort, that good old spirit wolf was finally separated from the spirit guardian knight captain, and it immediately turned into a puddle of ink.
After years of working together, the spirit wolf was a part of the spirit guardian knight captain’s body.
If it could not merge with the new spirit wolf, it would have lost its fighting power.
However, Abel’s newly summoned spirit wolf could fly, so it was worth a try.
The spirit guardian knight captain immediately jumped on its back, and the new spirit wolf faced a howl as their body began to merge.
The spirit wolf was named after a dead spirit, so it was the closest thing to a skeleton.
Merging was their nature, and the process was smooth.
Finally, the black substance around the spirit wolf wrapped around the spirit guardian knight captain, and they began to levitate.
The spirit guardian knight captain flew around freely in the sky, and Abel thought to himself, since the skeletons of legendary priests can’t fly, priests won’t be able to recognize my skeletons.
Indeed the process was successful, but it would still take a long time for Abel to do the same with the other 12 spirit guardian knights, so he had to postpone it to the night when he entered the Dark World.
Meanwhile, everyone in the Central Continent was getting excited about Grandmaster Bennett’s new level up.
He was the only one who managed to become a legendary druid in the last 1000 years, and many powerful figures had immediately congratulated him.
At the same time, the research spirit replied that Grandmaster Bennett was in retreat.
It made sense since every legend needed some time to adjust, especially for someone with three professions like Abel.
But since Abel was doing so in the Dark World, no one would help him too much.
After a few days, all 12 spirit guardian knights and 12 spirit guardian wizards were merged with their new spirit wolves, and they could all fly.
Which was a huge advantage for the spirit guardian wizards with lightning spells as it gave them much more options to strike even at close range.
These days Abel also tested out the power of his spells as a legend.
The biggest advantage of being a legend was not flying, but the suppression they had with lower ranks. It was far greater than anything Abel had ever seen before.
It was a conclusion he ended up with after testing it out with Knight Wale.
