Abe the Wizard Chapter 647 - Rejected

Chapter 647 RejectedAbel’s godly archery skills were the best for long distance attacks. Both mana and combat qi would be used up for other attacks. Only his archery could sustain a long duration of long distance attacks.Having an archer was the best support for going into the orc empire. All the other godly archers in Miracle City had their own excuses, so none of them were willing to go into the orc empire.

Head commander Edi had said that Abel’s archery skills had reached the level of a Grandmaster archer. Although Head Commander Donald did not believe a young wizard would have a legendary ability, he knew that Abel’s archery skill was extremely powerful.
The orc battle drum Abel had gotten as a spoil of war could also do wonders for them. In the past 10 days, Abel had used the orc battle drum to directly curse gyrfalcons to death on the orc battle field. After head commander Donald found out, he had decided that he wanted Abel to join his mission.
“Going to the orc empire is too risky; I’m only a beginner wizard!” Abel shook his head.
Everyone in the room knew what Abel meant. A beginner wizard could not ‘Move in a flash”, so a knight had to guard them.
Abel did not have much interest in the orc god blood. He was still young, and getting something that could increase his lifespan didn’t really come across his mind.
Head Commander Donald and Wizard Amos glanced at each other in disappointment.
None of the others in the room had also shown too much interest in going into the orc empire. That orc god blood was alluring, but you still need to be alive to enjoy it.
Head Commander Donald didn’t get the chance to say the details of how he wanted to go about this mission and how they would find the orc god blood.
He didn’t even get the chance to say his plan of getting to the orc empire because Abel was such a crucial element to their mission.
“Please consider carefully, everyone. If we don’t go to get the orc god blood now, we might need to wait another 10 years!” Head Commander Donald sighed. 10 years was not long, but a lot of things could happen during this time. He was not even sure if the orc god blood would still be there by that time.
This little meeting had ended in confusion just like that. It was very easy for intermediate wizards to leave since they could just directly flash away. Head Commanders were also saying goodbye to each other and getting ready to leave.
“K3516, let me send you off!” Said head Commander Edi with a smile. Regardless if Abel joined the mission or not, he was a part of his group.
Don’t underestimate the 2 trades Abel made today. They had reflected Abel’s ability to get the best spoils of war in a battle–which was why this little group existed in the first place.
“Sure, Edi!” Abel said with a bow.
As the 2 were about to leave, head commander Donald suddenly added, “Wizard k3516, can you stay for a bit?” I want to talk to you personally for a little.”
When he saw that head commander Donald wanted to talk to Abel personally, of course, head commander Edi would not interrupt. He said with a smile, “k3516, we’ll head out of the city tomorrow!”
Abel nodded as he watched head commander Edi walk away. Afterward, he turned to head commander Donald.
It was only the first time Abel met head commander Donald. They barely even knew each other, and he had already invited him to an extremely dangerous mission. It seemed like this was a little too quick.
Therefore, Abel kept quiet and waited for head commander Donald to start. This was basically a way for him to show his dissatisfaction.
“Wizard k3516. I want to talk to you to ask what will it take for you to join this mission. I will do my best to make you satisfied!” Head Commander Donald said in a negotiating tone.
“Head Commander Donald, this mission is too dangerous for me. I’m still young, and I’m not that interested in orc god blood to risk my life for it!” Abel shook his head and declined again.
“Then, can you give us your orc battle drum?” head commander Donald asked again.
“What can you give me?” Abel’s voice sounded cold. He felt like head commander Donald was about to eat him alive. Did he even know what kind of treasure an orc battle drum was? Even the orc empire that made them did not have many.
“Magic gems, war glory. Just give me a number!” Head commander Donald did not catch what Abel actually meant, so he continued to ask.
Abel shook his head. He had a pile of magic gems in his portal bag, and those were top quality ones as well. As for war glory, he would have no use for it if he could not even complete the battle of the orcs mission.
“I’ll get going now!” Abel gently bowed and said.
Head Commander Donald’s face began to sink as he watched Abel walk away. He looked nowhere as carefree as before.
He told himself today that the least he would do was get that orc battle drum off Abel. If he had the orc battle drum, he would be able to kill those patrolling birds sent by the orcs since birds like gyrfalcons were too high to shoot with an arrow.
They would be under the orcs’ surveillance as soon as they enter the orc empire, even in the desert of death. If the orcs were chasing them, their chance of surviving would increase dramatically if there were no patrolling birds.
At first, head commander Donald thought that 100 years of lifespan increase would be attractive for Abel. But did not Abel’s age.
As soon as a person became an official wizard, their lifespan would already be far longer than a head commander. And as a wizard kept leveling up, their life span would keep increasing as well.
Only a wizard caught in a bottleneck would need those orc god blood to give them some extra time for their next level up.
Most wizards that Head Commander Donald had interacted with were in the intermediate rank, and they would often think about their lifespan during every level up. But Abel was only around 15 years old.
“Amos, k3516 has no intention to trade his orc battle drum!” Head commander Donald said to his military card.
“What request did he make?” Wizard Amos’s voice emerged from the military card.
“I’m guessing he just doesn’t want to trade it anyway. He knows how precious that thing is!” Said head commander Donald helplessly.
“Is k3516 still completing the orc battle field hunting mission?” Wizard Amos did not follow Abel’s past; he only heard a little about him.
“Yeah, he is with Edi. But I heard that he had offended the royal wolves, so he had to fight alone!” Head commander Donald explained.
“Ok, tomorrow I’ll go to the orc battlefield. He will definitely give me the orc battle drum and that map of the orc empire as well!” Wizard Amos lowered his voice and said coldly.
“Be careful of the Miracle Spirit!” Head Commander Donald warned.
“Both of us know how fair the Miracle Spirit is. We can not attack each other in Miracle City, but that does not include the orc battlefield!’ Wizard Amos said with a cold laugh.
“Maybe… we can think of another way. As long as we can get him out of Miracle city, out of the range of the Miracle Spirit, then it will be a lot easier to clean up the mess!” Head commander Donald suggested.
“Don’t worry; I have my ways!” Wizard Amos said and disconnected the call.
Head Commander Donald shook his head. He couldn’t care less if wizard Amos is dead or alive or if the Miracle City would give Wizard Amos trouble. He was just worried that if he failed, Abel would become alert. Then, it would be a lot harder to do anything to him in the future.
However, he could understand where wizard Amos was coming from. Wizard Amos had been stuck at rank 13 for way too long. From what he knew, wizard Amos would only have 50 years left at best.
These lifespan speculations were often way too optimistic. This was because the damage a wizard did to his body would greatly affect his training.
The orc god blood was basically the last option for wizard Amos, so he would get it by all means necessary.
