Chapter 826: Transfer ( Three in one)
2 wizard dwarfs stood near the teleportation circle of the Goff Family. Although many batches of wizards were swapped on duty, this place had been guarded by wizard dwarfs continuously for the past 10 days.
A wizard dwarf suddenly saw that a message had finally arrived after 10 days.
He took out an identity card and ignited it with his power of the will.
Soon Bernie and Elite Wizard Cyril appeared next to the teleportation circle.
“What happened? Is it a message from Grandmaster Abel?” Bernie asked the moment he appeared. He didn’t even have time to register the dizziness he got from the teleportation.
“Young master, Grandmaster Abel has ignited his teleportation circle. We can go there now!” The wizard dwarf replied.
“Young Master Bernie, you succeeded!” Wizard Cyril said with an eye full of excitement.
Most members of the Goff family were against the idea of Bernie sending Abel out to sea. Abel was their brother, and he made the best wine, so none of them wanted anything bad to happen to Abel.
But the head of the Goff family supported Bernie, and he believed Abel could create a miracle. There were a lot of things he and Bernie knew that the other dwarfs didn’t.
“Quick, tell the headmaster!” Bernie quickly added.
“I’ll go as well. If there is no problem, I’ll come back to take you there, young master Bernie!” Wizard Cyril said with a smile.
Bernie was not a wizard. He might get injured if he went into a mana dense environment.
“Wizard Cyril, thank you so much!” Bernie bowed.
Wizard Cyril stepped into the teleportation circle and connected with the new special giant teleportation circle. He then ignited it with his power of the will and vanished into thin air.
When Wizard Cyril appeared at Titan temple, Abel stood by his side and bowed with a smile “wizard Cyril, welcome!”
“Grandmaster Abel!” Wizard Cyril bowed back.
He walked out from the teleportation circle into the giant temple. All of a sudden, he felt small and insignificant. The top of the temple was a sun-like glowing ball, filling the place up with holiness.
“Is this a giant temple?” Wizard Cyril felt sparks of electricity coming from the ground since the power of wizards’ will was a lot more sensitive than normal commanders.
He sensed a slight change in his body from that electricity, and his body began to strengthen.
He suddenly paused with eyes full of shock. No need to explain. This place was an ancient sight, no matter if it was a giant temple or not. You could not put a price on it.
Just the fact that this place could straighten the body could drive people crazy. There were many ways to strengthen one’s body in the Holy Continent, but they all had their limits.
Combat qi training could strengthen the body, but it needed talent and large amounts of stress on the body. Up to a certain point, it would plateau, and you would not grow anymore.
Commanders went crazy for combat qi training, which allowed them to withstand the corrosion of mana, but that was the most they would grow.
Head commanders were no exception. They could only develop a second attribute at most. They could not strengthen their body.
Potions could strengthen the body, but most of them were way too expensive. A wizard would need to use potions to withstand the corrosion of mana ever since the start of their training.
But those potions could only help them recover at most. They could not strengthen their body.
One’s body was very important to a wizard, but most of them were weak. This would not change until they became an elite wizard.
This place was a direct method to strengthen the body. It would be valuable for the dwarfs and hugely beneficial for them even if it were not a giant temple.
If a wizard could start with a strong body, they would no longer need to worry about taking potions. They could just get straight into their meditation and training.
There were many other benefits of this place wizard Cyril had not thought of, but he was sure this place would do wonders for the dwarfs.
“I’ve confirmed that this place is called the Titan Temple!” Abel made a welcome gesture and led Wizard Cyril into the temple. Soon, they came across a 10 meters tall statue.
“A Titan!” Wizard Cyril was not Abel. He had been researching the giants for countless years. The dwarfs knew a lot about the giants, and he could immediately recognize the tribe of this statue.
He also knew this place was a temple just by the way it looked.
The prestige of this statue could be sensed. Even though the energy it gave out had weakened over the years, the rank was still extremely high.
He did not know that Abel had already absorbed most of the energy from this statue. If not, wizard Cyril would be lucky if he was still alive.
There were not many things in the temple, only the Titan statue and a golden shrine.
“Grandmaster Abel, can we go outside?” Wizard Cyril asked.
“Of course, I have already broken all the magic circles, and I’ve made sure there is no more danger!” Abel smiled.
Wizard Cyril sighed. Actually, he rather Abel did not search the Titan Temple. It might be dangerous, but there would be corresponding rewards.
How could an ancient sight like this have no treasure? Abel said there was no danger around, which meant he had already taken all the treasures.
Still, Wizard Cyril had great respect for Abel. He had searched an ancient sight before, and the dwarfs had sacrificed a large amount of time, energy, and puppets to break all the magic circles.
Abel had done so in such a short period of time; no matter which method he used, it showed that his ability to break magic circles was very strong.
Wizard Cyril did not move in a flash. This temple belonged to the Titan, the most powerful race of the giants. The ancestors of the dwarfs.
Therefore he walked on foot, and Abel did not embarrass himself as well.
The dwarfs had spent countless resources on flying boats to find this Temple. It just showed how significant it was to them.
When the 2 walked out of Titan Temple, Wizard Cyril’s jaw dropped. He would not expect in a thousand that this temple was located under the ocean.
There was strange energy separating the temple’s waters, forming an underwater bubble of a few hundred meters.
“Wizard Cyril, the energy here had driven out all the sea creatures, so it should be safe. But it’s still good to send a few dwarf guards. The spiritual beasts in the oceans are a lot stronger than the ones on land!” Abel said as he pointed around.
He knew the dwarfs’ knowledge of the ocean, but he still explained.
“Grandmaster, I don’t know how to express my gratitude. What you have done for dwarfs can not be repaid by just 2 flying boats!” Wizard Cyril lowered his voice.
An underwater domain, a safe underwater platform. What could this mean to the dwarfs?
The dwarfs could use this temple to research the ocean. Although they could not travel too far from the islands, it was still a big step forward.
Abel gave out a little smile and did not say anything. It was sad to give this place to the dwarfs, but he could not guard this place with the Duchy of Carmel’s power anyway.
He had already taken away the guardian beast Barbara. This temple had lost its most powerful defense, so only the dwarfs could replace it.
Also, the dwarfs had great respect for this temple. If they knew Abel had stolen their temple, they would become enemies no matter how close they were. The cons overweighed the pros.
“Grandmaster, let’s go back to the Goff Family. I need to report this great discovery to the dwarfs!” Wizard Cyril couldn’t even wait. His faithfulness towards the gods grew as he looked around at this work of God. He had to report everything he saw to the elites of his family and the dwarfs.
Wizard Cyril and Abel teleported to the Goff Family. The headmaster of the Goff family had already arrived.
The dwarfs bowed the moment they saw Abel “grandmaster Abel!”
Their gaze was filled with gratefulness. Only a true brother would go out the sea for the dwarfs. Only one out of ten could survive.
Their already deep relationship was deepened once again. All the dwarfs could see from the excitement from Wizard Cyril’s eyes. The giant temple they searched for so long had been found.
The headmaster of the Goff family emerged and bowed ” Grandmaster Abel, thank you so much. Bernie will bring you to have a rest!”
“Headmaster, my honor!” Abel bowed back with a smile.
What happened afterward would be the business of the dwarfs. It had nothing to do with him. At most, they just needed to send some over to discuss the pay.
Although the dwarfs said that they would give Abel 2 flying boats for finding the giant temple, it was not that simple.
Abel’s relationship with them was too deep to make any unfair trade.
“Grandmaster Abel, follow me!” Bernie said with a smile as he led this very important person to be a guest lounge.
After Abel left, the Goff Headmaster turned his gaze at the excited Wizard Cyril.
“Wizard Cyril, how is it over there?” He lowered his voice.
As the headmaster, he had to confirm the condition before sending any men over, no matter how desperate he was.
All the elders wanted to ask Wizard Cyril this question long ago. They just didn’t want to embarrass themselves in front of Abel.
“A work of God. That place is a work of God!” Said Wizard Cyril, excitement pouring out.
The headmaster and the other elders exchanged glares. They knew Wizard Cyril was in the know. He had seen quite a lot of ancient sights before.
“Headmaster, that place is a perfectly preserved Titan Temple. Normal people can enter. You can go have a look!” Wizard Cyril didn’t know how to explain what he saw, so he suggested.
Abel followed Bernie into a huge luxurious construction. But Abel had seen too much, luxurious things that could no longer make his jaw drop.
There was nothing more beautiful in the Holy Continent than the Orwell palace, and he owned that place.
“Bernie, you can go. I can stay here by myself!” Abel said with a smile.
He could see how desperate Bernie was to see the giant temple. If his father didn’t demand, he would have teleported there already.
“Don’t worry, Abel, someone will tell me about it later!” Said Bernie acting like he didn’t care.
“Just go. I want to rest by myself. I’m tired!” Abel put up an irritated look.
Bernie gave out a little smile and immediately ran off.
Abel thought about the rewards he got as he watched the shadow of Bernie fade.
The ring of Valaya was a godly dimensional object treasured by the dwarfs, but Abel had risked his life getting them. So, of course, they belonged to him.
This world had its own rules. The rewards obtained from an adventure belonged to the adventurer. This was why so many were willing to risk their lives on adventures.
That godly dimensional object, the ring of Valaya, could save him a lot of hassle. He no longer needed to carry so many 10 square meters or 15 square meter portal bags.
He looked into that ancient submarine in the ring. It was filled with magic circles he never saw and strange materials. They could hide the scents of the subject.
The submarine could also become invisible with its magic circles, which was why that ancient dwarf could travel that far.
He found 2 Titan corpses in the temple. Although he didn’t know what to do with them, he knew the corpse of an ancient being must come in handy one day.
Also, the gears on them were quite extraordinary.
If godly objects were the work of God, those 2 sets of gears should be made by gods as well.
Still, godly objects in the Holy Continent would only have 1 extra strong attribute at most. Unlike the ones in the Dark world with many different attributes.
The godly objects in the Holy Continent needed to use even more luxurious material and technical forgery skills. Since those were limited in the Holy Continent, godly objects were the pinnacle in some aspects.
Just like that giant armor, it was made with something even Abel could not recognize. Its defense had reached the limit a gear could produce, and its special ability was still unknown.
There was only one way to find out the special ability of a godly object, and that was becoming its master.
Only Johnson could make use of such a big armor, so Johnson had to become its master.
The armor set included a helmet, body armor, combat boots, iron gloves, and a spear. Since the corpses were still in the ring of Valaya, Abel took out the full set of armor with his power of the will and summoned Johnson from his monster ring.
Luckily they were in the dwarf’s territory. All their construction was made according to giants’ size, so the 10-meter stall Johnson felt right at home.
“Johnson, try on that armor!” Abel pointed at the titan armor on the ground.
“Yes, master!” Johnson bowed.
It began to put on the armor one by one. Abel could feel its excitement through the soul chain.
Johnson deeply respected Abel. He taught everything it knew.
From Abel’s manner to his habits, Johnson was the only one out of the summons who could do human rituals.
Johnson was very thankful for this armor. It knew how hard it was to make something of this size. A normal furnace could not forge this, let alone the resources it would take.
Abel thought about making armor for Johnson in the past, but he just couldn’t find a big enough furnace. With this TItan armor, he no longer has to stress himself.
“Johnson, declare yourself its master!” Abel requested.
Johnson was born with the power of the will. It followed Abel’s instructions and began to communicate with the gear with his power of the will. Soon, this fully black armor started sparking in lightning.
The lightning sparkles began to build until the entire Titan armor was engulfed in it.
It was almost like it had become a different armor all of a sudden.
“What handsome armor!” Abel said helplessly as he looked at Johnson in that glowing armor.
Johnson looked like a god in the sky. Imagine how much pressure those Titan back in the days would give their enemies in this thing.
“Johnson, what ability does it have?” Abel asked.
“Helmet, body armor, combat boots, and iron gloves each have a very powerful defense. When they are all worn together, an energy shield made out of lightning would appear to counteract spell attacks. If the armor got damaged, it could recover itself with lightning attributes.”Johnson replied with the soul chain.
It then flicked the spear in its hand, and a strike of lightning struck upon the floor, making a small hole.
“Sorry, Master, I have not fully grasped the power of this spear. Every time it can cast a level 20 lightning strike!” Johnson said, looking at the hole he made.
Although the hole looked small to Johnson, it was 1 meter wide. It looked more like a level 22 lighting spell than a level 20.
Abel knew lighting spells like the back of his hand, and that strike was beyond the power limit of normal lighting strikes.
Abel gave the spear a little look and seemed like it had a lightning strike enchantment.
“Johnson, how’s the normal attack?” Abel continued.
“It’s normal attack spear comes with lightning damage!” Johnson waved around the spear again.
Abel was very happy with this Titan gear. Johnson had always been a front line contracted beast to him. As his strongest shield, Johnson would have another leg up with this Titan armor.
This lighting spear had also made up for Johnson’s weakness by giving it long-range spell attacks.
This TItan Armour could regenerate itself when damaged if given lightning attributes. Although this might be a hassle for others, all it took for Abel was a perfect yellow gem.
But there was one downside. This thing was like a giant light bulb. He could not tell johnson to do anything secretive as long as he had this thing on.
Abel shook his head and gave his portal bracelet to Johnson. Only the portal bracelet can fit a giant armor like this.
Another wizard would definitely lose his mind if he knew that Abel had given his summon a portal bracelet. Portal objects were the dream of every wizard.
Johnson carefully shoved the portal bracelet in his body. It was the safest place.
The Titan armor retreated in the portal bracelet. It then reappeared on Johnson again. After a few times of putting it on and taking it off, excitement emerged from Johnson’s chain. At the same time, Abel put Johnson back in the monster ring.
Luckily the monster ring was a godly object, so it could co-exist with the portal bracelet.
The value of the portal bracelet lay within its ability to swap gears, especially weapons.
Abel rested for a night with the dwarfs. He did not enter the Dark World. Instead, he had a good night of sleep.
The next morning when he arrived at the breakfast hall, Bernie and the Goff headmaster were already waiting for him.
“Headmaster, you are too generous. I am a friend of the dwarfs!” Abel quickly bowed.
The Goff headmaster was extremely prestigious in the dwarfs. He was one of the top elites, on par with the emperors of the 3 kingdoms. His presence clearly showed his gratitude.
“No, grandmaster Abel, you are a brother of the dwarfs!” The Goff headmaster said seriously.
He would not joke around like other dwarfs. His words were official, officially affirming Abel’s status in the dwarfs.
“I will forever remain a brother to the dwarfs!” Abel also replied seriously.
“Grandmaster Abel, I’ve been to the Titan Temple under the sea. It is priceless. Other than the value of the temple itself, it’s location could also do wonders for the dwarfs’ research!’ The Goff Headmaster did not hide from Abel.
He had seen the temple with his own eyes. Their opportunity was limitless, just catching the fishes alone could solve a part of the food crisis for the dwarfs.
Sea creatures were aliens to humans, but the dwarfs had looked into them. With that temple, the dwarfs could further advance their research.
He knew the most powerful spiritual beasts ruled the sea. Since that temple was still in good shape, it meant that those powerful spiritual beasts nearby were either driven away or killed by it.
He knew Abel had done something to break into that temple. That temple was now in a vulnerable state, so he needed to urge the dwarfs to put up the most powerful war machines on the island to guard the temple.
As long as he could preserve the temple. The dwarfs would have a base underwater. He could send out dwarfs to hunt intermediate spiritual beasts in the ocean. The opportunity was endless.
All of this was thanks to Abel, but how could they repay him if they couldn’t figure out the price of that temple?
“Headmaster, I’ve got something from the Titan temple as well!” Abel smiled.
The Goff Headmaster could guess it even if Abel did not say it. But Abel still did it as an act of friendliness.
“You risked your life for it, so anything you got should belong to you!” The Goff Headmaster waved his land and lowered his voice.
The dwarfs had gotten quite a lot from ancient sights after countless years of exploration as well, so the headmaster made it clear that they agreed with the adventure rule of this world. “Grandmaster Abel, you have done a great favor for us this time. We do not know how to repay you, so we decided to give you an extra flying boat, and we can also set up a defense system for you in 10 cities!” The Goff headmaster said. He had already discussed this with the other elites.
Abel felt a lift in his heart. War machines and trigger systems were the main reason why the dwarfs were so powerful.
A defense system was basically a combination of war machines and trigger systems. Equipped with countless crossbows, a city with a defense system was almost impenetrable.
Back in the days, even Flying Flame was injured by going into a dwarf city. If Abel had not helped, it would have died already.
This was how scary the defense system could be. That was why the orc empire rather invaded the humans than messing with the dwarfs.
Countless trigger systems were set up around the borders between the orcs and the dwarfs, and no orc had ever made it through alive.
The dwarfs would not sell their defense system no matter how much you gave them. Abel was the first exception they had made.
Abel knew what the Goff headmaster meant by his words. They were willing to set up a defense system for Abel in the Duchy of Carmel.
