Chapter 280: Skeleton Knights

Chapter 280 Skeleton Knights

After 2 days, all the potions he used had been replenished. Abel put the ‘Akara tent’ back to his personal storage back and used the druid’s soul to unleash 5 spirit wolves from the skill tree.

Abel saw that both intermediate Druids were riding on giant mount wolves. Through speculation, the wolves were dire wolves. Their defense and attack were both better than spirit wolves, and they were common summon beasts for intermediate wizards.

However, in practicality, a spirit wolf should be even better than a dire wolf. Those things were mounts, so how good their defense or attack was shouldn’t matter. They only needed one thing, speed.

Spirit wolves were the fastest beings. They naturally knew how to move in a flash, and due to their half immaterial bodies, they could almost move in a flash for an unlimited amount of time.

If you really think about it, these things were actually perfect as a mount, so why didn’t Druids ride them?

Actually, Abel already had an answer in his heart. He had done an experiment when he first got those spirit wolves: those things could not carry another life force.

If Abel sat on the back of a spirit wolf, he would directly go through their body and drop to the ground. That’s the main reason why spirit wolves could not be a mount.

Too bad. When Abel was sighing, he suddenly had an idea. His skeletons were not alive, so could they ride them? On top of that, they also had a death qi, just like the spirit wolves.

Up to this point, Abel summoned Rib Bone no.3 and commanded it to sit on a spirit wolf. The clumsy skeleton slowly climbed on to the back of a spirit wolf and clamped with its legs. It did not fall.

Just when Abel was about to get excited about his successful experiment, he received a message from his Horadric cube. “Do you want to combine the spirit wolf and the skeleton into a skeleton Knight?”

Abel was a little hesitant when he first received this message. The fighting ability of the skeleton was not high, and it would take a long time for it to grow. Would it be a waste if he sacrificed a spirit wolf to accompany a skeleton? However, at the same time, a spirit wolf could do move in a flash, the skeleton would get a lot more powerful once he started riding one.

The skeleton’s true ability was shown within its mastery of Knight skills since they could execute all the techniques that Abel had learned. Most of Abel’s Knight attacking techniques could only be unleashed on a mount. Therefore, just form these points alone, Abel’s skeletons were basically knights if they had a mount. On top of that, his skeleton’s physical attacks could incorporate death qi, so their physical attacks should be even more powerful than Abel himself.

Abel decided to try one out. If it failed, he still had 4 more. He used his power of will to connect with the Horadric Cube, “Combine!”

The half-transparent black color substance on the back of the spirit wolf began to rush towards Rib Bone no.3, slowly engulfing it. At the same time, Abel felt the mana within him began to drain. Good thing his mana had already reached 590, which was rare even among official beginner wizards, let alone rank 3 wizards. Although his mana was draining, it was still not anything intolerable.

As Abel’s mana kept draining, more and more half-transparent black color substance rushed towards Rib Bone no.3 until its bones could no longer be seen. That half-transparent black color substance became like a layer of skin and muscle for Rib Bone no.3, as it slowly thickened.

By the time the combination had stopped, Rib Bone no.3 had completely transformed. Even the Orc’s deity could not tell this was a summoned skeleton. From the outside, it basically looked exactly like a strong Knight riding a spirit wolf. What was different about this Knight was that it was naked with skin as black as ink, and gave out a half immaterial vibe like the spirit wolves.

Ever since the first time Abel had summoned a skeleton, he always wanted to use them for battle in the Holy Continent. But, he couldn’t since summoning a skeleton signified that he had learned a deity’s spell. No matter if it was a human, a dwarf, or an elf, they all had a strong distaste for the Orc’s deity.

This was because of the disgusting ways the Orc’s deity obtained those skeletons. Many elite fighters from different races had been tortured to death by an Orc’s deity. This allowed them to create a skeleton with the power of the skeleton’s original owner. Therefore, every summoned skeleton had a cruel story behind it.Visit website our Listnovel.com

That’s why Abel would not dare to summon a skeleton to fight, even if there was a slight chance of being spotted. However, now it was different. This thing no longer looked like a skeleton. Instead, it had turned into a weird knight riding spirit wolf.

If it could put on a set of armor, then it’s black skin would be covered. After that, no one would be able to tell other than Abel himself.

Most importantly, the death qi of the skeleton was covered up by the spirit of Wolf’s dark qi. Therefore, you tried to sense it with just your sensation; you could only sense the dark qi. On top of that, the spirit Wolf’s attack also had dark energy within it, which was very similar to death qi.

“Huh?” As Abel was searching for the summon spirit wolf ability on the skill tree, he realized he only had 4 spirit wolves now. This spirit wolf, which had combined with the skeleton knight had disappeared from the original summon spot, and it was identified as dead.

It seemed like the combination had forcefully erased the spirit wolf from its original summon spot, so he could summon a new spirit wolf with the spell.

He then took a look at the attributes of the ‘skeleton resurrection.’

The ‘skeleton resurrection’ did not change much. Abel summoned the skeleton again. He was not ready to summon the 4 spirit wolves he had left. They all had their combat experiences; it would be too much of a waste if he had turned all of them into skeleton knights.

He controlled his little druid soul to inject some power of the will on to the skill tree in the Horadric Cube and unleashed the ‘wolf soul summon’ spell. A summon spell patterned appeared in front of Abel. Afterward, he felt the mana within his body quickly dropped by 150 points, as it rushed towards the pattern. The pattern began to glow in green. The glow got more and more vivid, and his little druid soul could sense this glow was filled with souls of spirit wolves.

Abel tried to connect with one of the spirit Wolf’s soul through the little druid soul, but he was rejected. He kept trying and trying with different souls, and finally, he was accepted in his 8th attempt. After a while, the shadow of a spirit wolf appeared on his summon pattern.

Abel would never have guessed that his little druid soul could forcefully use a druid’s beginner wizard spell. It took up almost 10 times as much mana, but all the spells he had learned were summon spells anyway. They only needed to be summoned once, and it wouldn’t take up more mana after that. If it was an attacking spell, he would definitely not be able to handle this 10 times mana consumption increase. Only a few spells would clear up his mana storage.

Looking at the clumsy spirit wolf in front of him, Abel finally knew why druids would always summon them earlier and cultivate them. It would not be very practical if one decided to summon a spirit wolf during a battle. It had already taken Abel a very long time to summon this thing, and it could be a lot longer if his soul chain was rejected a few more times. That was enough to be attacked by his enemy again and again.

On top of that, the freshly summoned spirit wolf was not as mobile as a trained spirit wolf. If they were all like this, Abel would need to constantly send commands through his power of the will, and that would definitely take up a lot of effort.
