Chapter 1683: Visit

3 days passed, and Abel remained in the alchemy room. Lately, he has accepted some more requests for master potions.

Not because he wanted credit points. He had more than enough with those light healing potions and mana potions, but because he wanted to level up the energy within his master alchemist pattern. Considering how famous he was, many professionals were dying for his work.

By that point, his requests were at least a few times more demanding compared to when he first started.

Since the success rate of master potions was low, even if someone gathered all 5 portions of ingredients, many had given up on gathering those ingredients.

Abel had made countless potions, and each time he would at least end up with a blue rank potion. It was scary how attractive this was.

At first, Abel didn’t want to accept those requests, but when he saw how many requests there were, his long-lost dream of becoming a grandmaster potion maker awoke in him again.

The potion maker union was also very happy to see Abel accepting requests, as it would drastically increase their power in the Central Continent.

With a final ‘level up,’ another bottle of blue master potion emerged from the table and teleported to the potion maker union through the short distance teleportation circle.

Another mission was completed.

Abel put the leftover 4 portions of ingredients in his holy portal bag. Lately, he had gotten many valuable ingredients since he got to keep the leftovers.

Also, the requester needed to pay a good fortune to list those missions, so his rewards only kept increasing.

“Master, the Dwarf’s law defying wizard Faraday is here to see you with the sky ships!” The research spirit’s voice emerged after Abel finished his potions. As an intelligent spirit, it knew when to not distract Abel.

“Wizard Faraday!” Abel suddenly remembered the name. It was that rank 25 wizard dwarf whose days were numbered. Why did a powerful wizard would visit him personally?

Rank 25 wizards rarely showed themselves, even in the front line.

The only time Abel saw a rank 25 wizard was in that Howling Castle near the Holy Kingdom, but that was only because of how important that castle was.

“Invite him in and order the servants to bring on the best juice!” Abel called.

He then put on a potion maker’s robe. His body was filled with the smell of potions after these days, so he needed to take a shower.

It was basic manners. It might be fine if he was seeing his friends, but he was about to see a rank 25 wizard; good manners were crucial.

After a shower, he put on the special elven long robe and arrived at the lounge with Frankenstein.

Seeing Abel flashed in, Wizard Faraday stood up and bowed.

“Wizard Faraday, your time is precious. What brings you here?” Abel bowed back.

The golden longevity potion he gave out could only increase lifespan for 60 years. For a rank, 25 wizard who wanted to become a legendary, 60 years was very short.

“The prestigious Master Bennett, my life is yours. I wouldn’t forgive myself if I didn’t thank you personally!” Wizard faraday smiled.

“Wizard Faraday, to you too polite. the dwarves had obtained those potions from a fair trade!” Abel also smiled.

“Still, you gave me another opportunity to become a legendary. If you have any problems, feel free to contact me in the future!” Wizard Faraday followed.

“Wizard Faraday, I never could understand. Why didn’t you extend your life through other means?” Abel knew the dwarves had much knowledge in regards to puppets.

Wizard Faraday gazed at Frankenstein. Although he never saw Frankenstein’s face, every wizard knew he was a wizard who extended his life through special methods.

Those special methods could turn a wizard into something barely human, so they had to cover themselves.

The biggest give away was Frankenstein’s fighting style. He had battled with knights at close range and disregarded the strikes of a mad knight. Only someone with an altered body could do this.

The wizards speculated that Frankenstein was a wizard who couldn’t stand the pain of alteration or made some major mistake during the process he couldn’t fix. This caused him to sacrifice himself and became Abel’s follower in exchange for Abel’s help.

Therefore, Wizard Faraday had to consider Frankenstein’s feelings when structuring his words.

“Wizard Faraday, no need to consider Frankenstein’s feeling. Please, just speak your mind!” Abel smiled and waved his hand.

“Altering the body to extend life can almost end one’s potential to become a legendary wizard. There is only one wizard who successfully managed to do so in the past, and the circumstance of that wizard was extremely rare!” Wizard Faraday looked at Frankenstein and lowered his gaze.

“Wizard Faraday, can you tell me more about it?” Abel followed.

Although Frankenstein was strong with his altered body, Abel still wanted him to grow. When Abel himself became legendary, Frankenstein would be less useful.

Abel was confident in himself. He wasn’t even 20, and he was already rank 21. Also, his life was assisted by the oak tree. He still had a long journey ahead of him.

He had to resolve this problem for Frankenstein. If not, he would not be able to catch up to Abel.

Abel had the resources. He could give Frankenstein things other wizards couldn’t even imagine.

Frankenstein’s power was a part of Abel’s power, so he would not hold back in regards to that.

“Master Bennett, becoming a legend, is a process of total transformation. A wizard’s soul is transformed when one achieves the status of a law defying wizard. The basis of becoming a legendary wizard was the same, but for the body,” Wizard Faraday took a sip of the juice and continued “for a wizard who altered his body, it would drastically hinder this process as the special attribute of the body would be stripped away!”

“Wizard Faraday, so how come that one legendary wizard you mentioned succeeded in his level up?” Abel asked again.

“That legendary wizard was lucky to achieve 100 percent coordination with his altered body, so he succeeded at the end!” Wizard Faraday replied.

“Wizard Faraday, how can you tell if a wizard can coordinate well with his body or not?” Abel gazed at Frankenstein. He really couldn’t tell how coordinated he was.

“Master Bennett, are you thinking about Wizard Frankenstein? If you are willing, I can help you examine Wizard Frankenstein!” Wizard Faraday hesitated a little and said.

He would definitely not offered something like this to another person. Examining a law-defying wizard’s coordination was not easy to explain. Wizard Faraday only knew how to do so after taking in much knowledge from the dwarves.

Although his request to see another law-defying wizard’s body seems very demanding, he wouldn’t take this risk if Abel saved his life. After all, he would be in an awkward situation if Frankenstein rejected him.

“Wizard Faraday, please keep Frankenstein’s identity a secret!” Abel bowed and said.

Wizard Faraday was surprised at how fast Abel agreed. He did so without even asking for Frankenstein’s opinion, but he soon remembered that Frankenstein was contracted as a servant to Abel.

Only a servant contract could strip all freedom from a wizard, so you could just imagine how scary Abel’s power was to make a law-defying wizard his servant.

In a world ruled by wizards, their identity was more prestigious than any other profession. A law-defying wizard was the main fighting force, one of the most glorious of the bunch.

Master Bennett was the best potion maker in the Central Continent. Even the Wizard Union owed him many favors. As long as he didn’t force Frankenstein into signing the contract, no one would care too much.

Frankenstein stepped up towards Wizard Faraday. He paused and then took off his hood.

What stood in front of Wizard Faraday was a full metal puppet. There was no life energy left.

“How can one still battle after such alteration?” Wizard Faraday was stunned.

Although using puppets was one of the ways the wizard dwarves altered their bodies as well, they would all keep the alteration to the minimum by only replacing the most vulnerable body parts.

Still, you couldn’t blame wizard Marlon, the past identity of Frankenstein. He, too, wanted to take apart this puppet, but the only place it could recognize an owner was the head and body.

Therefore, in the end, Wizard Marlon could only keep his brain and some nerves. If he didn’t crazily use up the Blizzard’s resources to exchange water of life from the elves, he would be dead already.

Still, the pain was unbearable, and he was turning insane.

Frankenstein exposed his body and let Wizard Faraday scan him through the power of the will.

“How is this possible, no way!” Wizard Faraday gasped. As far as he knew, a wizard-like this would find a place to hide and try his best to stay alive, let alone battling.

However, Wizard Frankenstein had killed many mad knights during the short period of time he followed Abel. He was famous amongst the wizards.

“Wizard Frankenstein, don’t you feel pain?” Wizard Faraday settled his emotion and lowered his voice.

Frankenstein shook his head. He spent most of his time grasping the law of fire, so he didn’t even have time to learn how to speak.

Wizard Faraday asked a few more simple questions. If Frankenstein didn’t know how to answer, Abel would speak for him.

“Master Bennett, I have never seen anyone in my entire life like Wizard Frankenstein who could live as long with such alteration. His condition is beyond my knowledge, but if we ignore that, his test result is very good. He didn’t feel pain but he could sense every movement from all sides of his body. This meant that the puppet had already fully merged with his body. If Wizard Frankenstein was standing right in front of me, I wouldn’t even believe things like this were possible!” Wizard Faraday said with an awkward look.

“Wizard Faraday, do you think it’s possible for Frankenstein to become legendary?” Abel got to the point.

“Master Bennett, unless wizard Frankenstein can turn his puppet body into pure energy or change a body, he can not level up!” Wizard Faraday shook his head.

Abel felt his heart sink. How could he turn a metal puppet into pure energy? It might be possible if it was normal metal, but that thing was made out of ancient metal. Even a mad knight could not make a dent on it. Turning it into pure energy was not really realistic.
