Chapter 794: Super Grand Charm

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The ‘firewall’ spell was potent as an elemental attack. The bone warriors were almost killed as soon as they touched. The claw vipers were a little stronger, but they still couldn’t last for a few seconds.

That guardian was about to revive the bone warriors again, but the spirit guardian knight flashed beside it and attacked. All of a sudden, no more bone warriors appeared.

The guardian spat out poison and turned the spirit guardian knight green. It was one of a close body attack.

The spirit guardian knight disregarded the damage. Poison didn’t affect skeletons as much. It struck its iron sword and after rounds of attacks, knocked the guardian down.

After losing the guardian who could revive them, all the remaining bone warriors dropped dead under the firewall. Afterward, Abel threw out an ‘ice pole’ spell and turned the guardian into an ice statue. The spirit guardian knight struck again and turned it into ice blocks.

Abel had grasped a vague idea of the ability of the hell creatures in the Claw Viper Temple. Claw vipers were the strongest hell creature around. The bone warriors and the guardian could only win by number; they couldn’t do much damage. As long as Abel didn’t get trapped, he wouldn’t be in danger.

Also, he had gotten stronger since last time. However, it was not an increase in his own ability. He had gotten the attribute he wanted on the grand charm he found in the treasure box next to Coldworm the Burrower after combining it with a few hundred perfect gems.

Life Grand Charm

+1 lightning spells ( wizard only)

+36 life

Even though he was lucky enough to get an ice grand charm, he still intended to keep going.

You could do 1 exchange with every 3 perfect gems. That was crazily expensive, even for wizards, but an owner of a duchy had countless ways to obtain normal gems or perfect gems. For Abel, it was just a matter of combining those normal gems into perfect gems.

Abel needed a lightning attributed grand charm because lightning wizards were in the Holy Continent. Wizard Morton could easily overpower another wizard of the same rank.

The lightning spells were faster than any other spells. It was almost unavoidable. Even for an intermediate who knew how to move in a flash, dodging a lightning spell was hard if they didn’t have a fast spell casting speed. This was a big advantage of being a lighting wizard.

Also, a lightning wizard’s opponent would be numbed as soon as they stopped attacking. Then, they would die.

Abel carefully moved forward. He carefully scanned the surrounding environments every time he flashed, and every time, he would let his spirit guardian knights go first.

After cleaning the hell creatures in this tunnel, he came across a stone door. It was a mechanical door. He just needed to press a button, and the door would swing open.

But as soon as he did so, he realized that the inside was filled to the brim with claw vipers and salamanders. It was too late. The door was open, and the vipers madly dashed towards him.

Abel quickly scanned again with his power of will and found a safe place with only 1 stupid-looking claw viper.

A white light flashed, and Abel reappeared next to that claw viper. He unleashed a shield strike on the head of that viper with his ‘Ancient Pledge’ shield.

2 spirit guardian knights then struck that fainted claw viper side by side. When the salamanders and claw vipers realized Abel had appeared in the room, their spirit was ignited.

“Ssss... sssss” they rushed towards Abel, but soon they were met with a firewall.

The vipers disregarded the firewall and charged towards it. The firewall was only 2 meters wide. Although it was very damaging to all the vipers, some vipers had made it through alive.

They were too quick, and the firewall was too thin. It only had enough time to unleash one round of damage for those vipers.

Also, the fainted claw viper in front of Abel was about to recover. Those spirit guardian knights could not kill it in just 2 seconds of vertigo brought on by Abel’s shield strike.

A ‘chain of lightning’ spell patterns appeared on the tip of Abel’s iron sword, and a strike shot out towards the claw viper. The already badly injured claw viper died before the entirety of the lightning attack to its effect. Afterward, it charged towards the salamanders.

The salamanders also didn’t have much life left since they had passed through the firewall. After one strike of lighting, they screeched in agony and twitched on the ground. The lighting then jumped to another target from their bodies.

This was the horror of a level 21 chain of lighting spell. It had only used up all its power after striking 9 targets.

The scariest thing about this spell was that it could automatically find it’s target in a situation with more than one enemy.

Abel sighed. Lighting wizards were too powerful.

Since he had become an intermediate wizard, he truly understood how scarier being a wizard was compared to a knight. As long as an intermediate wizard kept his distance, even a head commander couldn’t do anything to him.

It was why intermediate wizards were far more prestigious than a head commander in Miracle City.

Lightning wizards were the most powerful wizards. With the ‘lighting strike’ and ‘chain of lighting’ spell, as long as a lightning wizard showed up, no head commanders could withstand them.

Souls kept getting sucked in by the Horadric Cube.

After 10 days of careful exploration, Abel had finally killed everything in the first level of the Claw Viper temple and found the entrance to the second level.

He walked down a passage. After a short moment of darkness, he saw another passage under the flickering glow of flames. Beside the passage were 2 statues of the viper god.

Abel never thought about this when he was exploring the first level, but as he stared at these 2 statues, he realized this temple was made for the viper god’s sacrifice before hell had invaded. That was why there were so many vipers.

After hell invaded, it merged the temple with its guardian and the vipers. That was how those claw vipers and salamanders were created.

At the end of the passage, Abel could vaguely make out a damaged shrine. It was the core of the claw viper temple: the sun shrine. It was a shame that the scent of hell corroded it. The sun shrine had turned into a fallen sun shrine.

When hell was still around, it had used this fallen sun shrine to dim the sky of Lut Gholein. But since hell had left, the fallen sun shrine was no longer functional. Still, the viper necklace was preserved.

Abel’s arrival woke up the claw vipers and salamanders in this place. Suddenly, they all madly dashed towards him.

The spirit guardian knights had already put up their defenses in front of Abel as the mud monster guarded him from the back.

Abel then cast a firewall towards the outside of the passage, but when he was about to cast another one, the vipers already reached him.

These vipers were a lot faster and stronger than the ones he saw on the first level. They had passed through the firewall almost instantly, with barely had any injuries.
