Chapter 1226 - Squashed
After three days, Abel finally got some information about Wizard Jules and Wizard Harrick. It was much easier than he thought, and he felt like a powerful wizard within the union must have deliberately leaked it out.
If not, there was no way the Holy Kingdom’s investigation department could find out at that time.
Meanwhile, the head of the Wizard Union investigation department, Wizard Clemens, had some new reports in his hand, and a smile began to emerge from his face. They were about someone gathering information about wizard Jules and Wizard Harrick.
He could only think of 2 candidates who would do something like this: Grandmaster Bennett and the Holy Kingdom.
So far, Grandmaster Bennett seemed a lot more likely since he had not contacted the investigation department during this time. Gathering information through another avenue made sense.
He wasn’t going to stop Grandmaster Bennett from taking his revenge. Grandmaster Bennett was not a wizard anyway, and it was a good idea to teach those legendary wizards a lesson.
He didn’t believe Grandmaster Bennett would kill two legendary wizards, so allowing Grandmaster Bennett to unleash his fury and destroy some things might help them rebuild their relationship in the future,
However, he had no idea what was coming to those legendary wizards with the information he leaked out.
Wizard Harrick was not having a good time during these days. Every legendary wizard was cold to him. There was even a legendary wizard who directly asked him about why he attacked Grandmaster Bennett.
He knew very well this was because Wizard Dolan told them about Grandmaster Bennett’s ability to make longevity potions.
Even though each longevity potion might take a long time for a new grandmaster alchemist to make, the wizard union wouldn’t be able to get any ingredients for them in the near future anyway.
The last five portions have already been distributed by the legendary wizards on duty.
Therefore, Wizard Harrick could only stay in his house as much as possible for now.
His house was located on a plateau with a decent mana atmosphere. He was not as lucky as wizard Jules who found a mana gem mine to call home, but he still managed to gather a city-scale magic circle as well as a spirit to take care of things.
He did not worry too much about his safety. Although his protection circles were not as powerful as the Golden castle, it was enough for him.
His home was not the place he went for retreat. It was just for his day-to-day activities.
So even if a powerful figure attacked, he would have enough time to react before his protection was broken.
Both were moving in a flash or using a teleportation circle were great.
At that moment, he was talking to his two law-defying wizard disciples in the hall.
Since wizards could not interact with normal people, their bond was like father and son.
“Teacher, your reputation is not going well outside. Do you want to do something?” One of the disciples bowed.
“There’s no need. Those rumors will settle in no time. It’s nothing!” Wizard Harrick was feeling furious at heart, but it would be fine if he didn’t interact with the outside world.
“Some law-defying wizards who used to connect with have stopped doing so. It seems like we are in big trouble!” Another disciple spoke up.
“It’s all because of Bennett. He is in hiding, but he shouldn’t be able to leave the Golden Castle. Send someone to search him out!” Wizard Harrick clenched his teeth when he thought about the name.
“Yes, teacher!” The Disciples exchanged gaze helplessly.
If someone found out, they were trying to track down Grandmaster Bennett. They would be in big trouble.
Suddenly, the atmosphere of the hall changed. WIzard Harrick looked up and felt like he was locked down by something.
Spell pattern flashed in his hand, and he appeared above the sky.
But of course, he did not go beyond his protection circle, and he added a frozen armor on for safety sake
Although the energy shield of his protection circle was not enchanted by lightning, it was still very strong.
Above the clouds, Abel sat on his invisible Fire Tooth battle fort with the mysterious crown on his head. By that point, he had transformed to elf Bennett, and the energy Wizard Harrick felt was Abel searching with his power of the will.
It was faint energy, but Wizard Harrick still noticed it and directly went for a search.
Abel looked down at Wizard Harrick with a murderous gaze. Since Wizard Harrick was furthest from the Wizard Union, it should be some time until the wizard union came for support.
He didn’t know if his idea would work, but it was worth a try.
He wasn’t going to directly go against Wizard Harrick. No matter what, he could not a-true a wizard moving in a flash—especially for a rank 28 wizard.
Abel reached his power of the will into his holy portal bag and surrounded the golden castle, the entire golden castle, including the starlight protection circle and the 40 battle forts.
With the support of those special circles, the golden castle was like one huge connected object.
His plan was to take it out and forcefully slam it down with his power of the will.
As Wizard Harrick was still searching for the source of energy, his two disciples also appeared above the roof, as well as ten intermediate and elite wizards. They were all the finest of Wizard Harrick’s school.
Suddenly, an indestructibly huge structure appeared above. Even though he could only see the base, he recognized it was the Golden Castle. The thing he was about to search for.
However, he just couldn’t understand why Grandmaster Bennett would do something like this.
Using huge objects to attack a small target was nothing new, and some powerful figures with huge portal bags have tried it before.
Tactics like this were all or nothing, and most of the time, it was only effective on a fixed target.
For a wizard who could move in a flash, Wizard Harrick and his disciples could easily dodge it.
“Flash! Bennett is here!” Wizard Harrick yelled, and his disciple immediately flashed away.
However, it was at that moment. The 40 battle forts ignited their mana forbidden ability.
Each of them had the power to freeze powerful a creature, and they were all concentrated on Wizard Harrick.
Wizard Harrick immediately reached into his portal bag for a move in a flash scroll, but those invincible lifesavers were not even responding to his power of the will.
Just like that, he was hopeless. His power of the will was not going to save him.
He had reacted too slowly, and the giant golden castle was slamming down like a huge wave.
The so-called city-scale protection circle of his house shattered with a single contact.
Even Abel couldn’t tell how heavy the golden castle was. After all, he had added countless supporting gears on it from top to bottom.
If Abel did not have the mysterious crown and the holy portal bag, no way he could move something like that, chilling.
Wizard Harrick has contemplated dying in war or dying of old age, but he never thought about squishing to death by a giant castle.
Bang! The flashed-away disciples looked towards their home and discovered it was replaced by a huge golden castle. It deeply sank into the soil, and they could truly imagine how deathly it was.
“Where is teacher?” One of the law-defying wizards yelled as he noticed his teacher was missing with his power of the will.
It was at that moment, a young elf in a long robe with a delicate crown appeared above the sky.
The scary thing was that this young elf was floating, and the disciples immediately knew who it was.
“Go away. This is between Wizard Harrick and me. It has nothing to do with you!” Abel looked at the wizards around and said.
Those wizards could do nothing to him, and he couldn’t care less.
As he spoke, a legendary light shot up above the sky, giving out an intoxicating beauty with a hint of mystery.
“Teacher!” The two law-defying wizards fell to their knees and roared with their hands sinking into the mud.
The other wizards were also on the ground with disbelief.
A legendary wizard, a rank 28 legendary wizard, died in his home just like that.
They just couldn’t understand why their teacher couldn’t escape in time.
Abel returned to his golden castle and unleashed his power of the will. In a flash, the entire golden castle vanished again.
He turned to the dead body of Wizard Harrick. There were many lifesavers on him. At least there was a golden armor from the front line, and two life-saving magic objects were ignited before he was squeezed to death.
If he was able to use a super healing potion from Abel, he should be able to survive for a moment.
But getting squeezed to death was not like taking a strike. The power would not go away. It would be a joke if WIzard Harrick could hold up an entire castle.
Wizard Harrick’s body was in a mush. All of his bones were shattered. There was nothing about it that resembled a glorious legendary wizard.
Abel carefully surrounded wizard Harrick’s dead body with his power of the will and up it back in his personal storage box.
“I was not expecting this. Can I still resurrect him?” Abel thought to himself.
It was a rare opportunity to get a legendary wizard’s body under the rule of the wizard union. If Abel was not planning to give up his Grandmaster Bennett identity, there was no way he would do something like this.
