Abe the Wizard

Bay Law City was a city of green under glistening sunlight. The green creepers had wrapped around the walls so tight that the walls’ original color could no longer be seen.

“Throughout the years, druids on their verge of death would violently rip out the poison creepers from their body and place them onto the walls to guard it until eternity!” Count Hutt saw the surprised look on Abel’s face, so maybe it was the first time he came to Bay Law City.

Each of those poison creepers belonged to a druid because poison creepers were not a creature of this world, they could only be summoned.

If he wanted to break those walls, he must first penetrate those scary poison creepers. It would be a huge sacrifice.

Poison creepers might be living inside the walls and only exposed a part of themselves. It was very hard to destroy them at once, and its poison was the hardest elemental attack to counteract in this world.

There were not any all-purpose poison antidotes in this world like the ones in the Dark World. Also, each druid had a different method of cultivating their poison creeper, so their poison would be different.

As Count Hutt was introducing his city with pride, his face suddenly sank.

“Druid Bennett, can you help me protect this box? If something happened to me, please take it to the Lenny family and give it to my father!” Count Hutt took out a box and whispered.

“Count Hutt, do you really need my help?” Abel casually took the box and placed it into his portal bag.

Afterward, he saw a druid riding a mad wolf with 10 warrior elf riding battle deers in golden armor behind him. From his scent, Abel knew he was a rank 17 druid.

Abel gazed forward. They might be after Count Hutt.

He only promised to take Count Hutt to Bay Law City, so he could basically leave.

He still hadn’t gotten his rewards, but he wouldn’t get involved with noble elves’ conflict with those little rewards.

Also, looking at those warrior elves’ gear, they were definitely very powerful in Bay Law City. With Abel’s current status, he didn’t want to get into trouble yet.

“Druid Bennett, just help me one more time. I am a count. I won’t be killed!” Count Hutt saw Abel put away the box and felt his heart lifted. He laughed.

“Count Hutt, Mr. Angelo wants to invite you to the count and have a chat!” that elite druid stopped in front of Count Hutt and lowered his voice.

“Mr. Consoles, what happened? Let me go back to my palace first!” Count Hutt laughed coldly.

The elite druid turned his eyes to Abel and spotted the mad wolf below him. He sensed Abel’s energy. It was so young it was almost unbelievable, but he still underestimated Abel’s ability. He then turned back and doubled down. “Count Hutt, Mr. Angelo wants to invite you now!”

After those words, the warriors behind him began to surround them.

The face of that intermediate druid beside Count Hutt tensed up. He couldn’t do anything. He knew who Mr. Angelo was, and he knew the Lenny Family would be in big trouble if he resisted.

“I can come to court with you, but this druid is not related to me. Please let him go!” Count Hutt had no choice.

“Ok, let him go. Please open your portal bag and let me have a check!” The druid turned to Abel and lowered his voice again.

“Are you disrespecting me?” Although Abel didn’t want any trouble, this druid was stepping on him too hard.

Portal bags were private, and druids had many secrets. Demanding someone to open their portal bag was a huge disrespect.

“Don’t think you are an elite druid, and you are above the law in Bay law City. If Mr. Angelo doubts you, then you should be doubted!” That elite druid laughed.

He saw Abel chatting with Count Hutt, so there was no way he would let Abel go.

He was familiar with every elite druid in Bay Law City and the surrounding cities, but he had never seen Abel before. Abel’s history was a mystery to him.

Abel frowned. He never thought helping a count would bring him this much trouble. It seems like he had to change his plan. He could no longer proceed into Bay Law City.

Fury emerged from his heart. He just wanted a quiet place to train, and he couldn’t do that with someone always trying to mess with him.

“Do you have the right to investigate another elite druid in the name of Mr. Angelo? The court might be going a little too far!” Count Hutt said loudly since the druid just wouldn’t let Abel go.

A druid had many rights, let alone an elite druid. If not for Count Hutt, there was no way an elite druid would threaten another elite druid.

Suddenly, powerful energy shot out of Abel’s body. His rank 18 druid energy was on full display from his druid soul. He no longer wanted to hide his ability.

The rank 18 energy directly slammed into the rank 17 druid. He paused for a moment. The energy of nature within him was suppressed.

Abel moved forward on his mad wolf and suddenly accelerated. Since they were not far away, Abel arrived in front of the druid in no time.

And struck his hand on the Druid’s neck, and he was knocked out immediately. “Pathetic!” It was the last word that elite druid heard before he fainted.

Although Abel’s strike might have looked a little too sudden, it truly reflected how much more powerful a rank 18 druid was to a rank 17 druid. A single rank above could suppress the reaction speed of a lower rank. Reaction speed was life and death in a battle.

If Abel were not in Bay Law City, he would have killed that druid already. He wouldn’t tolerate anyone who disrespects him.

“Mr. Bennett, don’t worry. My family will speak for you as soon as we get back. The court won’t give you any trouble!” Count Hutt immediately knew he had underestimated Abel, so he quickly tried to ease the tension.

At the same time, he also changed the way he addressed Abel. If Abel was a rank 16, maybe he could address him casually, but he just couldn’t anymore after realizing Abel’s power.

2 of the 10 warriors quickly helped the elite druid up. They didn’t say anything and quickly carried the druid away.

They knew very well, someone who could take down a rank 17 druid with one strike was not someone they could face. The only thing they could do was to go back and report.

“Count Hutt, are you sure I am safe?” Abel asked.

If he was outside of the city, he could easily escape even if the law enforcement druids give him a hard time again. But once he entered the city, the city circle would have the power to suppress him.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Bennett. I swear in the name of the Lenny Family!” Count Hutt lowered his voice.

Abel nodded and stepped into the city gate with Count Hutt. He didn’t know about the Lenny Family, but they seemed quite powerful.

Count Hutt worried that they would be stopped again, so he increased his speed while Abel followed tightly and looked around the city.

Bay Law City was beautiful. The roads were made out of red-colored ore with flowers and trees planted on both sides. The flowery smell filled the air, which only pushed the calming scenery to another level.

Every building was also a work of art, the true definition of architecture. There was not a single ordinary building around.

Since count Hutt’s heart was in a rush, he no longer had time to introduce Abel to the surroundings.

“Mr. Bennett, we are here!” Count Hutt said with relief when they arrived at a rustic-looking gate with a statue on each side.

“Young master Hutt, welcome home!” An elf in uniform opened the gate and bowed.

“Steward Jonah, how’s my father?” Count Hutt did a welcoming guest Ute to Abel and turned to the steward.

“Master is doing fine. The water of life from the shrine stopped his condition from getting worse!” Steward Jonah bowed and said.

“Bring me to father!” Count Hutt said, then turned to Abel, “Mr. Bennett, please come with me!”

The rustic gate was 500 meters from the living space. A garden with a fountain and all kinds of strange flora stood in between. You could tell the place was full of history with one look.

The living space was a small castle. Anyone with a castle in this castle was beyond ordinary.

They entered the castle, passed the lounge, and finally arrived at a room.

Count Hutt slowly stopped his steps and waved at Steward Jonah, signaling him to leave. Afterward, he carefully opened the door to the room.

“Hutt, you are back!” A frail but sturdy voice emerged.

“Father, I’ve brought back the blood strengthening grass. You will get well soon!” Count Hutt said with a joyful tone.

Abel did not enter the room, but he could see an old elf leaning back on a chair. The grey look on his face exposed the problem in his body.

“Hutt, you’ve brought a guest?” The old elf did not get too excited when he heard about the grass. Instead, he turned to Abel.

“Please excuse me. I’ve gotten too excited. Mr. Bennett, this is my father, Duke Bart!” Count Hutt bowed and introduced them to Abel.

He then turned back to his father and said, “father, this is Mr. Druid Bennett. If it weren’t for him, I would have died in Ervo Forest already. If not for him, the court would have stolen the blood strengthening grass!”

“Druid Bennett, thank you so much for your help. I was always worried when I let Hutt take care of business. Don’t worry. I won’t drag you into the tension I have with the court!”

It seems like this Duke Bart had been through a lot. Nothing could anger him. Instead, he was thinking for Abel.

“Duke Bart, this is what Count Hutt wanted me to protect. It should be what you are after!” Abel said as he took out the box.

Duke Bart took the box. He wanted to do a bow, but he struggled to get up and ended up with a cough.

“Father, don’t get up. I will thank Mr. Bennett for you !” Count Hutt quickly stepped up and held his father.

“I’m too old. I should have returned to the goddess already if I didn’t have the water of life as support!” Duke Bart shook his head.

“Father. I will look for a potion maker right now if Master Muir agrees. We can definitely make it!” Count Hutt held the box tight and said.

The blood-strengthening grass inside the box was the only hope of saving Duke Bart. He tried his best with his family connection and finally got his hand on some with a flying mount, but the process was not easy at all.

A slaying spiritual beast attacked him. Since he wanted to keep it low-key, he only brought along 1 intermediate druid with him. Normally an intermediate Druid’s natural force should be enough to guarantee his safety, but they were unlucky.

If they didn’t run into Abel, they would have died in Ervo forest.

He only had one portion of the blood strengthening grass, so he had to invite a master alchemist. Only master alchemists had a guaranteed success rate, and Duke Bart could no longer wait for another portion to arrive.
