Chapter 202 Advanced Wizard

“I’m bringing my mount wolf with me, sir,” Abel said as he bowed towards Morton Wizard.

“Well, be quick about it,” Wizard Morton said with an agitated tone, “The Wizard Union has already sent me a call. They want me to open the teleportation circle as quickly as possible.”

From what it looked like, Wizard Morton probably underestimated how much the Wizard Union wanted to capture Abel. As soon as those three red-cloaked wizards went back, a call was almost instantly sent to the Morton Magic Tower. Since Magic Towers were the property of their owners, something like this would rather happen at all.

“Yes, Sir. It won’t take long, I promise!” Abel replied as he ran towards the door. When he opened it, Black Wind was already charging towards the inside of the magic tower.

After getting on Black Wind’s back, Abel used his status card to open up a door that was in front of the defense circle. While it was just big enough to fit him and Black Wind, it was relatively easy for them to get past the security check.

“I’m ready!” Abel said to Wizard Morton. As long as he’s got Black Wind with him, White Cloud wasn’t really a problem for him. If he wanted a flight, he could always summon White Cloud with his soul chain.

Wizard Morton decided to send Abel to the Duchy of Thunder. Once Abel got there, he would have to go to a few more teleportation circles before he could smuggle himself into the Kingdom of St. Pierrt. And after that, the higher-ups of the St. Ellis’s Wizard Union would have no right to extradite him.

For the sake of clarification, while the Wizard Union existed as one large organization, it was divided into three branches across different parts of the Holy Continent. There was a branch in the Kingdom of St. Ellis, one in the Kingdom of St. Pierrt and one in the Kingdom of St. Anwall. They all shared the same goals and enemies, but they operated independently from one another.

Thus, if Abel could find his way inside the Kingdom of St. Pierrt, those red-cloaked wizards from the Kingdom of St. Ellis would have no way to arrest him.

That’s what he thought, at least.

“Request for teleportation has been denied. The identity of the passenger has been detected by the Wizard Union, and he is a wanted criminal!”

That couldn’t be good. The Wizard Union was, like, acting way too fast for this. They were kind of going too far, to stop someone from using a teleportation circle like this, a lot of energy would have to be used to lock up all the teleportation circles across the entire kingdom.

“Warning to the owner of this magic tower: as permitted by high-level authorities, the Wizard Union will now make a forced entry here.”

“High-level authorities.” Abel had no way to know what that meant, but Wizard Morton understood every single word. Basically, only a handful of wizards would be granted this level of authority. Since Morton’s security measures were meant to keep advanced wizards out, it was about the only thing that could get someone else in.

“Let’s go!” Abel grabbed Abel by his waist as he cast the ‘instantaneous movement” spell. Soon, the two disappeared from the first floor of the Morton Magic Tower.

When Wizard Morton and Abel were gone, a powerful force appeared from inside the teleportation circle. It was Wizard Cliff, who was laughing in his blood-red cloak.

“You think you can escape?” Wizard Cliff chuckled as he vanished from the teleportation circle.

As soon as Wizard Cliff came out of the magic tower, Wizard Morton and Abel teleported themselves back inside. While you could teleport to any spot you want from inside the magic tower, the only way to get back in was if it’s permitted by the tower’s owner.

Wizard Cliff was being played for a fool. Now that he was outside the Morton Magic Tower, he didn’t have a way to get back in. He was annoyed by this, obviously. He quickly lifted his finger, and after drawing a very complicated rune pattern in the air, he started casting a spell towards the direction of the Morton Magic Tower.

Even from inside the tower, Wizard Morton could sense how powerful this spell would be.

“Oh no,” Wizard Morton reached out his hand to grab Abel again, “Come with me. He’s going to cast a high-level spell.”

Instead of teleporting this time, the two went to a room that was full of magic circles. There were six arched tables in the center, and as they were linked with silver linings, they formed the shape of a hexagon.

There was a small magic circle on top of each table. They were all decorated with an intermediate magic gemstone. At the center of the big hexagon, there was a slot that was filled with an intermediate gemstone as well.

Wizard Morton reached for a pouch of gemstones from his portal bag, “This is the main operation room of this magic tower. If an advanced wizard is trying to break his way in, we’ll have to replace the gemstones as quickly as we can. Otherwise, there won’t be enough mana to power up the defense circle!”

“Here,” Wizard Morton gave a few stones to Abel, “As soon the stones run out of mana, use your “telekinesis” to replace the new ones in!”

With a wave of his arm, Wizard Morton switched on a screen that was showing what was going outside of the magic tower.

By this point, Wizard Cliff was pretty much done drawing the spell rune to cast “blizzard.” As nice as the weather was at the Morton Magic Tower, a pile of black clouds quickly gathered up, and soon, giant flakes of snow started dropping from the sky. Hails started falling heavily. It was a natural disaster that was created to destroy any nearby infrastructures.

When the falling snow was about to drop on the magic tower, a white barrier emerged around the building. While the barrier shook a lot as it absorbed the impact of the hit, it was also able to divert the attack towards other directions.

That didn’t keep up for too long. Soon, more snow and hail fell from the sky. It was almost as if they were at the northernmost part of the Holy Continent. Since the “blizzard” spell also had a freezing effect, the parts that were hit would sometimes glow in blue light.

Luckily, the magic tower wasn’t a living being. The freezing effect wasn’t going to do a lot to damage it. That being said, the mana that was used to power up its barrier was being drained at a very fast pace.

Ten seconds later, and one intermediate gemstone was already starting to shatter apart. Both Wizard Morton and Abel were very anxious to see this. With the “telekinesis” spell that was engraved inside his magic staff, Abel quickly switched the broken gemstone with a new one.

Wizard Morton could do the same thing if he wanted to, but instead of taking the time to draw his spell rune, it’s definitely a lot faster if it was Abel’s magic staff that was doing this. It was a life and death situation now. The faster they were, the less damage the magic tower would take.

It was really starting to get tense inside the operation room. There were a total of seven slots to place the intermediate gemstones. One stone would break at the rate of every ten-something seconds. Abel didn’t have a large mana capacity. Every time he was using his magic staff to cast a “telekinesis spell,” he would have to use up double the mana to do it, which was about 14 mana points for just one spell.

Abel was starting to get desperate. Whether he was using his own mana or the magic staff, if this kept on going, he was not going to keep the magic tower’s defense circle running properly.

He had to think fast. Pretty soon, the incoming blizzard would start breaking through the magic tower’s defense. When that happened, Wizard Morton and all the other disciples and apprentices here would be hurt because of him. With that in mind, there was only one thing to do here.

Abel took out his perfect magic gemstone. He decided to give it a try. If it worked, bravo. If not, he would walk out of the magic tower and take Wizard Cliff down with himself.

“Sir,” Abel asked as he took out two perfect red stones from his portal bag, “Have a look at these. Do you think I can use these?”
