Chapter 965: Resurrection
Speaking of powerful corpses, Abel was reminded of the 2 dead titans he found in the ancient Titan temple. Although he didn’t know what level they were, they should be very strong.
He would only resurrect power creatures like this under the Oak Tree in the Rogue Encampment.
He sensed the god-like ability on top of the support of the Oaktree, the world stone, and the golden energy in the crystal angel statue could save him from danger even if the resurrection failed.
As he held the Holy bone card in his hand, he ignited the ‘resurrection’ spell pattern. Death qi began to generate from his druid soul and entered the spell pattern.
He then took out the dead titan from the Varaya’s ring with his other hand and laced its giant body. Just its 10 meters tall body could make people feel threatened.
He ignited the resurrection spell, and a vicious death qi rushed to the titian body.
However, there was no reaction, almost like it just vanished.
“Is there a problem?” Abel couldn’t help but scan his holy bone card and his druid soul, but everything seemed normal.
He was confident in his resurrection spell pattern. If it could be ignited with his death qi, it meant that he already had the power of a big priest.
How come the dead titan was not resurrected?
Abel gazed towards the blue howling rabbits from his side and grabbed one. With a gentle twist, the blue howling rabbit died.
He did not use the holy bone card. Instead, he used his own resurrection spell. He drew the spell pattern similar to what happened and ignited it.
Death qi rushed into the dead blue howling rabbit, and it immediately began to twitch. It stood up again and began to jump around.
“Nothing’s wrong with the spell!” Abel thought to himself, looking at the rabbit.
Maybe the corpse was dead for too long? He ignited his soul speaker ability and connected with the oak tree. Soon, the oak tree lifted an almost decomposed dead rabbit from the ground with its roots.
Although things seemed like it had only been dead for a week, normally, a dead blue howling rabbit would be fully decomposed and return to earth within a month.
Abel ignited the resurrection spell again, and vicious death qi entered the blue howling rabbit. But this time, it was just like the titan. It did not react.
“Luckily, I didn’t go all out!” Abel couldn’t help but shook his head. After all, resurrecting a powerful creature, he killed to work for him was almost too good to be true.
However, when he killed Blizzard’s Wizard Marlon, he realized his dead body was made of an ancient puppet. Since it could be a great research target, he preserved his corpse in the personal storage box.
The special thing about the personal storage box was its ability to freeze time and preserve everything as they were.
Therefore, Wizard Marlon’s body was basically like it was just killed by Abel. Maybe he could resurrect it.
As Abel thought, that resurrected blue howling rabbit began to twitch again and fell on the ground. Its body turned grey like it was dead for years.
The 3 minutes of resurrection time was up.
He did not care. The oak tree would take care of it. At that moment, he decided to resurrect Wizard Marlon.
It was the most powerful fresh corpse he had. With that special puppet body, its defense would be stronger than any knight.
Actually, Wizard Marlon’s death was quite sad. He could get killed in the Central Continent, but angering a powerful being back there was almost impossible for him.
All he needed was some water of life, and he could just honestly trade with the elves. The elves had the goddess of the moon as support, and the goddess of the moon was one of those powerful beings with the ability to kill him.
However, he was not expecting a seemingly ordinary wizard-like Abel was a god-like being in another world. With the help of the oak tree, he was immediately killed outside of the Rogue Encampment.
Wizard Marlon was always in conflict with his puppet body, so he did not have the time and will to show his power. Without fully controlling his puppet body, his puppet body was attracting almost every law-defying wizard who wanted to go down the same path.
This was why Wizard Marlon had hidden. Even the blizzards were wiped out. No one in the Central Continent knew they were housing a powerful wizard like that.
His power rested in that almost indestructible puppet body. It could perfectly make up for the weakness of Wizards. This was why Abel had kept it for research.
When Abel placed Wizard Marlon’s puppet body on the ground, its golden surface glistened under the sunlight. It doesn’t look like a wizard at all.
He held up the Holy bone card once again and redrew the resurrection spell pattern, ignited with death qi, and a chilling white light rushed into the glistening puppet body.
The chilling white light engulfed the body, and Abel sensed a strange attraction from his Holy Bone Card. It was demanding some special energy, but the god-like ability in the Rogue encampment quickly made him realize what energy it needed.
Although Abel still couldn’t clearly pinpoint what energy it was, the closest thing he had was the golden energy within the crystal angel statue between his eyes. It was the faith of countless preachers.
“Maybe I’ll call it the energy of god!” Abel mumbled.
Of course, he would not reject the Holy Bone Card’s request. The resurrection spell was only halfway done. If he stopped now, Wizard Marlon would not be able to be resurrected again.
Also, even if he called the golden energy in the crystal angel statue the ‘energy of god,’ it could be recovered. All he needed was some time.
Therefore, he transferred the golden energy into the holy bone card through the world stone.
After God’s energy was injected, another spell pattern emerged from the holy bone card, but the color of this one was a little different.
The energy of god fully drew it out, so it was shining in dark gold,
The dark gold resurrection pattern flew out and wrapped around Wizard Marlon’s puppet body along with the chilling white resurrection pattern.
The glowing patterns merged as spell patterns subtly flashed on Wizard Marlon’s body.
‘Warmth,’ ‘telekinesis,’ ‘move in a flash,’ ‘ice bolt,’ ‘ice nova,’ ‘frozen armor’ ‘ice blast’ ‘ice pole,’ blizzard storm,’ ‘ice ball’ and ‘ice support’ were some of them just to name a few.
An idea suddenly struck Abel. Maybe Wizard Marlon was reviving his spell memories. The full set of ice spells were there other than the fire spell ‘warmth’ and lightning spell ‘move in a flash’ and ‘telekinesis.’
Those 3 none ice spells were the most common spell to have since they were useful regardless of a wizard’s attributes.
The ice support spell was what attracted Abel the most. Maybe this resurrection really had brought out all the powerful skills of an ice law-defying wizard.
As the chilling glow and dark gold glow slowly faded, Wizard Marlon’s puppet body began to move. He gently pressed his hand on the ground and stood up.
Suddenly, a clear cracking sound emerged from the holy bone card on Abel’s hand.
‘It’s broken?” Abel felt his heart jump. This thing was amazing. How could it break?
The crack began to expand. He didn’t know what was happening, and he had no idea what to do. Maybe he wasn’t using it correctly, or maybe he was not powerful enough.
He was right. The original owner of this bone card was a true god, and the Beamon was only resurrected to take care of some chores.
However, not everyone could hold this bone card in their hand and do a resurrection ceremony.
The person must be a god, and Abel was only half a god in the Rogue Encampment.
The second mistake Abel made was the energy of God. The God’s energy in this bone card needed to come from the god of death, and Abel had used the holy energy of an angel statue. He was already lucky that the card did not explode on him.
This bone card could only be a toy at most to a god, but it was still exclusive to the gods. This was why a half god-like Abel could at least play with it for a while.
Soon, Abel began to notice the bone card was repairing itself. But it was very slow. No way he would be able to notice any change without his god-like ability.
Maybe fully repairing it would take at least 10 years, which destroyed Abel’s dream of resurrecting powerful beings to work for him.
As you knew, everyone had a soul contract limit no matter how powerful they were, so Abel could not sign too many contracts.
But of course, if a god had helped Abel sign a contract, like the one he signed with the tree of life, it would not have taken him much space.
He also realized a strange thing about this holy bone card. When he gave the soul potion to Doff, it turned into a weak little soul, and that little soul didn’t take up much space at all. As time passed by, Doff’s body began to grow along with its soul, but still, the amount of place it took in Abel’s soul contract remained as a little soul, even if Abel kept using the soul potion to speed up Doff’s growth.
This process was a challenge to this world’s law, but it was also the mutual replenishing miracle of the 2 worlds.
If he did not have the nourishment from the soul of hell creatures, his Horadric cube would not be able to make a soul potion. Without soul potions, he would not be able to resurrect the powerful Beamon he obtained.
Abel regained himself. The holy bone card was damaged, and there was nothing he could do about it. Luckily this holy object had the ability to repair itself. If not, all holy objects would be gone by now.
Abel calculated for a moment. If he left the holy bone card in the Dark World with its mana-dense environment, he could cut the repair down dramatically. Maybe half a year would be ok.
He just needed to find a fresh corpse at that time.
With this demand for dead bodies, he suddenly felt like an actual priest.
He shook his head and got these nonsensical thoughts out of his mind, and gazed at the puppet body of Wizard Marlon again. His druid soul had been counting down ever since it started moving. 3 minutes was almost up.
He felt his breath tensing up. Could it stay resurrected forever?
“5..4..3..2..1!” Abel mumbled. Until the last moment, he closely scanned for change in the body.
Times up, the body was still standing with a blank look on its face.
“Succeeded!”
