Chapter 1125: Demanding

Abel spoke to the elder identity card on his waist, “Can you find the location of the herb garden spirit, battle command spirit?”
He was still inside the seclusion circle now. The three legendary wizards wanted to rest. It wasn’t just him that needed rest. They needed rest as well. They all hadn’t rested for eight days.
The battle command spirit sent over a message, “We’ll be scanning the garden, sir!”
After five minutes, just when Abel realized that something wrong happened to the battle command spirit, he began to hear the sound of something being recovered.
“Sir Elder! This garden is a portable base. The area the spirit is located at is at the bottom!”
Abel couldn’t help but ask, “You mean the herb garden can move?”
The battle command spirit explained, “Yes, this is a base meant for war. It’s portable so that it can provide back support for troops.”
Abel realized something. He might be able to bring the entire garden back with him. He first looked towards the herb garden outside of his seclusion circle. The area was as massive as about a few thousand hectares. The entire system was automated, such that no manual labor was required. He could make an entire system just like this, but it’d be an excellent addition to the family. He could also combine the system with his three goddess statues, making the overall product multiple times more than what the entire family required.
The reason that the Holy Continent had no rank 18 wizards was very simple. They did not have enough resources. Abel did provide his family wizards with an entire area with the right concentration of mana already. It was not less than what’s available on the central continent, and if there were any difference, it would be that it was much harder to make potions on the Holy Continent. On the Holy Continent, the main method to train was mostly through meditation only. Even the mana gathering circle had to be used with extra care, mostly because many gemstones were used up already.
With this ancient herb garden in place, the advanced wizards on the Holy Continent might have everything that was needed. The problem now was to take the herb garden away with Abel, and he didn’t think that he could achieve this without letting the other three legendary wizards know. After giving it some thought, Abel decided that he might as well explain it to Wizard Dolan. He didn’t think that they would refuse, given how dangerous it would be if he were coming here alone the next time.
Abel walked out of his seclusion circle and went to Wizard Dolan’s tent, “I’ve something to talk about Wizard Dolan.”
Wizard Dolan walked out of his tent as soon as he heard.
He was a bit confused, “I thought you’re resting, Master Bennett. Please, come in. What business might you have?”
Abel was a bit hesitant to say this, but it had already been eight days. He didn’t know when they’d all be kicked out. But, on the other hand, if he couldn’t find a way to take control over the spirit here, this fine garden might be impossible to find in the future.
Abel walked in and spoke about his intent, “Let me ask this, Wizard Dolan. Would the Wizard Union allow me to have this garden if I want to own it?”
Wizard Dolan wasn’t sure, “You mean you want this garden, Master Bennett?”
Abel nodded, “It’s of good use to me.”
Wizard Dolan was more confused now, “This garden is at the outer part of the sea, Master Bennett. You can’t come here alone even if you were granted ownership.”
As a matter of fact, the Wizard Union was already considering giving up on this place. The risks were too high. Plus, the special environment made it impossible to connect to a super teleportation circle. Now that they’ve got all the ripe materials turned into the mana resistance potion, it might just be a good idea to leave permanently.
Abel reconfirmed, “Can I purchase this herb garden, Wizard Dolan?”
Wizard Dolan could tell that Abel was serious, “I’ll get the other two. Hold it for a moment, Master Bennett.”
He then extended his power of the Will. Very quickly, two white lights appeared. The two legendary wizards were already standing in front of Abel and Wizard Dolan.
Wizard Dolan spoke to them, “We’ve got something to tell you about. So, Golan, Doran, Master Bennett seems to be interested in taking this garden. What do you think?”
Wizard Dolan didn’t see a reason to refuse, but he still needed the approval of the other two to ask the Wizard Union. But, of course, Wizard Golan and Wizard Doran had no idea why Abel would ask for this. They couldn’t say how ridiculous the idea was, but nor could they refuse. How else could they get him to help them out the next time if they were to say no to him about this?”
Wizard Golan made it clear, “No problem! We’ve crafted this much mana resistance potion now! It’s enough for the Wizard Union already.”
Wizard Doran laughed, “Why is that even a question? Ha! If Master Bennett can find some way to get here, the Wizard Union can just buy mana resistance potion from him permanently! The problem is, well, I’ve made myself clear, haven’t I?”
Abel smiled, knowing what they were trying to say. Of course, they’d all be interested in giving him this herb garden, but he needed to show them that he could use it to the best of his ability.
Wizard Dolan passed the command card to him, “We’ll give you this garden now, Master Bennett. This is a command card. The next time the garden opens, please craft more mana resistance potions for the Wizard Union.”
Abel bowed and took the card over, “I’ll follow my oath, rest assured. I’ll do my best to provide a mana resistance potion to the Wizard Union.”
For as early as a few days ago, he’s been putting five portions of the ingredients into his personal storage box. The time there was stationary, and he could transplant them into his own area once he was back. He might craft the mana resistance potion to boost his alchemy level if not for the potions themselves. The one thing he needed to think about was whether he could allow the herb to survive in Blood Moor. If he could get permission to own it, there shouldn’t be a problem.
Abel left the three legendary wizards and followed the scanning result of the battle command spirit. After doing so, he found the hidden entrance that was leading to the underground. The entrance was hidden by bushes. The top was even decorated with hidden circles similar to that of the seclusion circles. However, if the battle command spirits could recognize this, they might just read the situation immediately.
Followed by one step into this entrance, Abel could see that the three legendary wizards were looking at each other. They’ve been to this location before, but none of them had found this passageway.
Wizard Doran smiled, “Master Bennett was asking us because he’s confident, Doran.”
Wizard Dolan didn’t seem to care, “Well, just give it to him if he wants it, then. Who else can we give this to, anyways?”
No one could make 9000 bottles of the mana resistance potion like that. Abel was the only one. There was no one else that could make something this good with this little amount of time.
Wizard Doran smiled, “The problem, Dolan, is that we might need to give Master Bennett a bit, you know, just a bit more materials the next time we ask him to do a favour.”
Wizard Dolan laughed out loudly, “Definitely less, of course! Why’re we still giving him extra portions if his success rate is near perfect? I might just hand him my rarest ingredients , actually.”
For wizards like them that would often venture inside the ancient ruins, they’d always have some ancient herbs that could be brewed into actual potions. The problem was that they couldn’t find enough to make spares, but Abel just showed them that he never needed spares.
As the three legendary wizards chatted with each other, Abel was already moving to the underground area of the cultivation base. Without the help of the battle command spirit, he would’ve never been able to make it here. It did seem easy when he was walking to the entrance. However, without using the battle command spirit to use the elder sign card, he might face an attack immediately.
As they moved to the underground area of the moving cultivation base, he could see that there was a giant room of about 500 square meters. There were puppets placed around everywhere. From what the puppets looked, they were probably meant for manual labor. They were probably maintenance puppets if Abel had to guess. They seemed to be all lacking some extra parts, however. Originally, many labor puppets were here, and as time went on, they would just slowly be broken on their own. Some were still left to “protect” the malfunctioning ones, and over time, only ten were left that worked on the field. Those were the ten that they all saw back then.
As it turned out, there was a time limit to how long the garden could sustain on its own. Maybe in a few decades, the labor puppets might just become useless, and the moving base might lose its function. Then, a month later, the garden might rot away on its own.
Instead of looking at the puppets one by one, Abel tried to look for some way to claim ownership over this garden. If he could provide the raw material for them, he could have the puppets wake up independently.
Eventually, Abel’s eyes looked towards the door that was at the innermost part of the room. He could see that this was where the control room of this base was. The battle command spirit continued to send out one message towards the outside. The base here had always acknowledged him as a welcomed guest, but this was supposed to be a forbidden area.
When Abel pushed on the door, he could see that the door had circle runes drawn on them. Still, he managed to get it open very easily. Once inside, he could see a spirit that was glowing faintly. He was quite familiar with the state of this spirit. The spirit was on minimum expenditure mode, such that all the other complicated functions were switched off.
Abel spoke to the battle command spirit, “Add my claim in.”
It’d be very easy to claim ownership over a low-energy spirit like this.
The battle command spirit responded, “Yes, sir.”
Very quickly, a wave came sweeping to the spirit that was glowing dark. Abel could quickly feel the connection he had with the spirit.
“We got it!” Abel said, thinking that he was done with the most important step. He went forward to the energy slot, and he could see that almost all the magic stones were gone. It was pretty much empty, and he just wasn’t sure what the spirit was doing to keep it alive today. So he decided to first have a look by connecting his power of the Will to it.
