Abe the Wizard - Chapter 262

Chapter 262: 262

Chapter 262 Drilled Equipment

Black Wind stared at Abel passing the soul potions to Rib Bone No . 1 with its eyes wide open . How come it didn’t get anything? He began to ruthlessly rub his head against Abel .

“Now now, Black Wind, don’t be naughty . I’ll make sure to put aside your share!” Abel felt like a parent lying to a kid about tooth fairies . He had to constantly comfort Black Wind .

Abel left Black Wind and White Cloud 3 bottles of ‘soul potion’ each, so he could do anything he wanted with the 6 bottles he had left . In the past, he felt inclined to drink these soul potions because of how beneficial they were to the mind . However, now he realized that not drinking these soul potions was even more of a waste since their power could not be fully utilized .

Regardless, he should still be studying something with his time . He had the 2 recipes from Master Mara, and most of the “Introductions to Crafting Magic Staff” had not been looked into too deeply .

In the next couple of days, Abel drank down 10 bottles of soul potions, virtually refining the ‘healing potion’ and ‘poison antidote potion’ recipes from Master Mara . Although he had not physically made any of them into real potions, he was confident that he had the recipe under his belt .

He had also grasped a special spell called the “soul gather” from the “Introductions to Crafting Magic Staff” . This spell had not appeared on the skill tree after he learned it, so it seemed like he had just wasted those potions . The single spell was incredibly difficult to learn, and it had taken him 5 bottles of ‘soul potion’ .

Abel had finally understood why the making of magic staff required a Blacksmith Master and a Wizard after leaning ‘soul gather’ . In order to get the soul of an official soul beast, it had to be killed . Only wizards could kill official soul beasts, so only wizards could use soul harvest to get souls from the official soul beast .

The soul also needed to be put in the magic staff during the construction of it . And that also needed to be done by the wizard, so you could say without a wizard, a magic staff couldn’t be made .

At the same time, only the expertise of a Blacksmith Master could make expensive metals and ingredients into a magic staff .

Not every Blacksmith was as lucky as Abel, who was able to get enough blank magic staffs to use as a carrier for an official soul beast . Therefore, making a magic staff that the Holy Continent had considered as very powerful .

Similarly, without proper requirements, Abel was only able to virtually practice how to make the magic staff .

Soon, it came time to leave the Dark world . Although 2 out of 10 soul potions’ effect had been wasted, Abel didn’t feel bad about it . The improvement in power was quite noticeable .

Abel took out the attribute sign from his Kong Kong spirit portal bag . His attributes were displayed on the sign after a stream of white light appeared .

Power: 22 . 84

Speed: 6 . 50

Constitution: 17 . 02

Will: 41/54

Mana: 530/530 (the Bahamut Vampire’s Ring+120Mana)

After becoming a commander, his power, speed, and constitution had been raised considerably . Constitution had also been raised because he had risen in ranks as a knight, breaking the 15 point bottleneck .

Because the dark gold rank magic staff ‘Bane Ash’ was a two-handed magic staff, it was usually kept in his portal bag . If it was equipped, mana would be improved to 560 .

Finally, it was the magic staff dropped by the fallen shaman, though only 25 had been recovered, others were destroyed in the battle . Some of them were also broken, to begin with, and some more had been whipped out by Bishibosh’s self destruct . The Fallen shamans were concentrated around Bishibosh . Therefore, there weren’t many magic staffs that could be recovered .

Abel threw one of the staff in the Horadric Cube:

Short staff (common)

Durability: 19-20

+ 2 point Firebolt

+50% damage to undead

There wasn’t much interest in white rarity magic staff, though +2 firebolt was alright, it was paled in comparison to the Bane Ash’s +5 .

Abel identified the magic staff one by one, throwing them into the Horadric Cube afterward .

In the end, 10 of them were blank, one had +3 firebolt, 3 had +2 firebolt, and the others had +1 firebolt .

He had hoped to get one with an official wizard spell attached, ideally an attacking spell . But out of the 25 magic staff, none of them had an official wizard spell .

Abel was getting disappointed, but he noticed Rib Bone no . 2 awkwardly standing aside . It had a magic staff stuck in his ribs . How did it get there? Abel commanded Rib Bone no . 2 to come to his side with his power of the will and carefully removed the staff .

This staff was unique, having a small indentation on its tip . He’d guessed that it was just another Fallen shaman magic staff with a socket .

Most of the equipment from the Dark World had sockets, and they usually have all sorts of gems and patterns on them . This gave them different attributes and runes . The best equipment was the one with a ‘rune word’ .

‘Rune word’ was a special system of ordering specific runes in a specific order . When those runes had been installed with a correct onto equipment with socket, it could give it a lot of special bonus attributes . Afterward, the item could also be identified as dark gold . Therefore, a ‘rune word’ would give your weapon a special name and great power .

Abel opened the Horadric Cube and threw the staff inside:

Staff (Common) (1)

Durability: 18-20

+50% damage to undead

sockets(1)

This was an attribute-less Fallen shaman magic staff . Other than the +50% undead damage bonus, it had no attributes . But despite that, Abel still formed an interest in it, since it was his first equipment with a socket .

Previously when Abel was making magic equipment, he would open up a socket on them . However, those sockets were not recognized by the Horadric Cube . This also meant that it was not recognized by the Dark World as sockets for gems and runes . Though the sockets he made could also harvest the powers of some magic gems, it was not suitable for a rune word . He would make equipment with Runeword . If a socket was not recognized as sockets for runes by the Horadric Cube, the power of Runewords would definitely not be able to be activated .

Abel inspected the socket thoroughly, as a Blacksmith Master, he was confident in replicating the socket of this Fallen Shaman magic cane . All he needed to do is to compare the sockets he made in the past to the ones recognized by the Horadric Cube .

In his eyes, the socket on the staff seemed insignificant, just like a socket that had been made really smooth . But when it is inspected in more detail, the socket is made from intricately placed lines, barely noticeable by the naked eye .

Using his power of the will, the lines inside the socket was actually a complicated rune net . Such intricacies on a common white item had completely exceeded his expectations, perhaps equipment in the Dark World was far superior to the ones in the Holy Continent .

His newfound confidence in his forging had just been utterly crushed by the equipment from the Dark World .
