Abe the Wizard

Chapter 1065: Barley Cloud City

In the battle fort, Abel was fast, even if he didn’t have any teleportation circles.

He focused on the closest target.
If his world stone and druid soul was correct, this was a preacher.

“Fire Tooth, go there!” Abel gently tapped on the target and said.

The battle fort immediately flew forward.
It was fast with 4 engines ignited at once.

At the same time, the Fire Tooth spirit kept updating its ancient map.

Preacher Ford was a nobleman.
His family was the first noble family to serve under Emperor Davey, so he received a special vow ever since he was a child.

Maybe it was because of his status or his talent, he gained Emperor Davey’s trust and was luckily picked as a Preacher.

He could clearly remember there were 1000 candidates, but the Holy armor only picked 100 preachers in the end.

Ford studied his inherited knowledge of preachers ever since.

That was until one day, the great Emperor Davey announced that the Lance Continent would become the holy land, and God needed them to spread his word and prayers.

Therefore, preacher Ford held up a staff of authority and arrived at Barley Cloud City.

He was more powerful than the city owner.
Not only did he bring 10 powerful holy knights with him, but he also had the power to command any troops in Barley Cloud city.

He first set up a temple in the best area of the city.

Although that area was where the businessmen gathered, 10 of the most powerful men still offered their assets for free.

They didn’t want to, but they would be captured and burned alive when the temple officially opened if they refused.

“Faith needs sacrifice!” Preacher Ford held his staff up in glory.

Everything he had was granted to him by god, and he wanted to turn this city into a ground for gathering souls.
All the civilians would become sacrifices.

“How long until the temple is finished?” He turned and asked the city owner.

Preacher Ford stood in the hall of the city palace, which became his palace ever since he arrived.
On the other hand, the city owner was sent to a guest room nearby to serve under him.

“The prestigious preacher Ford.
I’ve already gathered the best builders.
It should be done in 2 months!” He bowed.

“No, I’ll give you a month.
Gather all the strongest men in the city.
It is their chance to better their souls!” Preacher Ford’s face sank.

Preacher Ford knew he was battling against time since Emperor Davey wanted them to complete spreading their prayers throughout the Lance Continent in 2 years.
This way, the Lance Continent would be allied with the Holy Kingdom.
If not, they would be facing the fury of the Wizard Union.

“The prestigious preacher Ford.
The citizens of Barley Cloud city are all free citizens, I can not command them to work!” The city owner said helplessly.

“What you have is the military.
If they go against you, kill them.
I don’t care how, but I need to see the temple in a month!” Preacher Ford said coldly.

The city owner couldn’t understand why the Holy light Kingdom would treat their citizens like this.
After all, Barley Cloud City was a medium-sized city that paid a decent amount of tax.

If he did what preacher Ford wanted, his peaceful city would fall into chaos.

The city owner didn’t know, but the kingdom actually didn’t care about tax at all.
What they needed was prayers, and they would get them by all means necessary.

After all, what was so bad about a little bit of chaos?

What the Holy light Kingdom had was hard power.
The cold blade could solve any problem.

As soon as the temple was built, all the citizens would helplessly fall under their command.

Under the guidance of preachers, those citizens would become their followers.

As the discussion was getting heated, a bite light suddenly flashed in the hall, and a black-cloaked hooded wizard appeared.

“A wizard?” Preacher Ford gazed coldly and followed with a laugh, “take him down.”

To ensure the safety of a preacher, each of them had 2 elite knights and 8 intermediate knights with them at all times.

However, the 2 elite knights were not as confident as preacher Ford.
They could not sense the power of their opponent, which was scary.

It was almost like this wizard did not exist, but yet they could clearly see him with their eyes.

The knights exchanged a look, and an elite knight took a step beside preacher Ford while the other elite knight charged forward with his shield and sword, “glory to my lord!”

He yelled as the 8 intermediate knights followed, but they knew this enemy was not simple.

The 9 knights formed a formation and ignited a charge towards the black-cloaked wizard.

However, the black-cloaked wizard did not care.
When the knights were seconds away from him, they immediately froze.

Their charge was broken along with their holy freeze aura.

They fell towards the ground helplessly with their weapons, sending sounds of metal crashing throughout the hall.

Preacher Ford and the other elite knights felt their hearts dropped.

Although elite wizards could suppress an elite knight to an extent, there was no way they could stop a full team of charging knights just like that.

“Mr.
Ford, you go first!” The last elite knight knew he could die, but not preacher Ford.
Preachers were almost irreplaceable.

As preacher Ford began to turn, the elite knight also charged towards the black-cloaked wizard.
However, all it took was a little wave from the wizard, and he sensed an unbearable pressure roaring towards him.
At that moment, he immediately understood why the 9 knights dropped down so helplessly.

He had never seen a law-defying wizard, but he heard about them from legends.
At that moment, he felt like he was tipping over on the verge of death.

“Not bad, bring them back.
I want to research them for a bit!” Another voice emerged.
It was another hooded wizard.

Abel just came back from a tour around the temple being built.
He found a special magic board as well as some decent materials, which he all put away.

Although they needed to build the temple as soon as possible, they could save on the materials.
They needed large amounts of luxury to support that spiral magic board.

But all Abel knew was that those materials looked expensive, so he wanted to see what he could build from it.

He sent Frankenstein to take care of the knights and the preacher first.
Considering how weak they were, Abel wasn’t worried as he strode around the temple.

“Mr.
Wizard, I am the city owner of Barley Cloud City, please spare my life!” The city owner was trembling in horror.

He thought Abel was one of the lucky few who survived their wizard union, and now he was seeking revenge.
For a small potato like him, he wouldn’t dare to join the fight for such power.

Of course, he did not have the right anyway.
But to be honest, he much rather the wizard union retook power.
This way, those crazy prayers would not spread throughout his city.

“You saw nothing and you will say this if anyone asks!” Abel said to the nobles as he added a lock with his power of the will.
Unless someone with a stronger power of the will had encountered those nobles, they would not be able to say anything about what they saw.

Considering the body of the city owner, he would directly explode if anyone tried to force him to say anything.

It was a simple trick, but truly showed the helplessness of normal souls in the face of a law-defying wizard.

Afterward, Frankenstein wrapped the 10 holy knights and preacher Ford in his power of the will and ignited a move in a flash towards the battle fort in mid-air.

Abel gazed at the hypnotized city owner and also disappeared with a smile.

He regained himself after 10 seconds, and he said in the most respectful tone, “The prestigious preacher Ford!”

However, preacher Ford and his 10 knights were no longer in the hall.

He was puzzled, but he knew the mysteries of preachers were not something he could comprehend.

Preacher Ford opened his eyes in the battle fort and saw an elf next to that scary black-cloaked wizard.

He then took to his side and saw his 10 knights struggling.

Suddenly, he was stunned.
He was lying on were clouds.

Although clouds were nothing extraordinary, he never saw them from this perspective.
Of course, he was floating on a giant oval-shaped platform with a transparent dome wrapped around it.

He almost felt like he was seeing god.
Even the knowledge he inherited never mentioned anything like this.

Abel smiled at his prey.
They were his subject of research.
As the opponent of the Holy Kingdom, he wouldn’t feel ashamed even if he killed those men during the process.

He unleashed the crystal angel statue energy through his world stone.
Ever since he realized that it could steal the prayers of god, he had rarely done something like this in this world.

However, he was in the Lance Continent.
He was the only god around.
The Holy Light Kingdom wiped out even the remaining forces of the wizard union.

They were so far from the Central Continent.
The gods would not be able to do anything to him.

The energy sifted out of his forehead as he ignited his world stone.
A golden glow flashed in his eyes, and he saw a little strand connecting the knights to the crystal angel statue in his forehead.
