Abel flicked open the book, and it was filled with words he had never seen before.
“Wizard Abel, this inheritance was written in Barbarian language. I can read it through to you!” Barbarian Ruin knew Abel didn’t understand the book looking at his face.
Barbarian Language was not a common language in the Central Continent since the Barbarians didn’t have much to pass down.
“Please do so!” Abel said in gratitude.
Although the trade was done and Barbarian Ruin could leave, he still offered to help. This had saved Abel a lot of time.
Barbarian read the book word per word. This was to show that he was not trying to trick Abel.
It was a skill inheritance. Even a single world mistake could distort the content.
Abel’s memory was nothing to mess with, and everything was memorized after Barbarian Ruin stopped speaking. On top of that, he also memorized every Barbarian word character.
“Wizard Abel, there is also something not in the inheritance book. Listening carefully, I’ll only say it once!” Barbarian paused for a moment and added.
Abel felt a little tingle. There was something the book was missing?
Barbarian Ruin began to mumble, and Abel shifted his intention into focusing again.
Barbarian Ruin gave him the foundation of being a Barbarian. The basics of all training.
It had the information regarding developing a Barbarian energy within the body, which ultimately allowed them to unleash all kinds of Barbarian skills.
Since Abel’s hurricane (damaged) meant too much to the Barbarian, Barbarian Ruin felt like he had given Abel an unfair trade.
If Barbarian Ruin did not tell Abel about this fundamental knowledge, Abel would not be able to use any skills in the inheritance no matter how hard he tried. It was a hope Barbarian Ruin had given Abel to become a Barbarian.
Afterward, Abel defused the barrier circle, and Barbarian Ruin stepped aside. Both the priest and half-elf Leon did not say anything. They knew it was a secret between Abel and Barbarian Ruin when they noticed the barrier circle.
Abel then set up a protection circle. He did not revise the Barbarian inheritance immediately. Instead, he took out an intermediate light gem for meditation.
Before he began, he summoned Johnson and formed an iron fortress around him.
He only met those people in the team not long ago, and he was not willing to test their loyalty with his life.
After an hour of meditation, he followed with the blue dragon breathing technique. Although he couldn’t go in the Dark World, he still didn’t want to miss a training opportunity.
Safety of the camp was not something a wizard needed to worry about. With the summons of the druid and priest on guard, all a wizard needed to do was to keep his shape and kill off enemies when they strike.
After he was down with the ice crystal breathing technique, all the tiredness in him was gone. He began to review the Barbarian inheritance in his mind.
This Barbarian inheritance in his mind was a little different from the one Abel remembered from long ago. Or maybe some skills were missing.
He wasn’t sure if it was because it got lost or Barbarian Ruin was deliberately playing tricks on him.
However, Abel was still very interested n the spells.
There were 3 schools in Barbarian. Roaring, battle, and spells.
Roaring was to scare off enemies and increase the power of your teammates. Battle was for increasing the control and maximizing the power of a weapon. In other words, it was the Barbarian fighting technique.
Through this inheritance, Abel could understand why Barbarian Ruin said no one could learn Barbarian skills other than Barbarians.
Barbarians were born with a scary body. Their harsh living environment also further propelled their body to be stronger.
What a Barbarian needed was not the bloodline but genetics for supernatural strength and body.
If another race tried to study the Barbarian inheritance, their body and strength would definitely hit a plateau.
Abel guessed that only a small number of orcs could be qualified to become Barbarian. However, they still wouldn’t be able to do so within the foundation.
Abel was not a normal human. His body and strength were beyond anything humans could do. Even Barbarians would have a hard time competing.
Therefore, Abel was totally qualified to become a Barbarian. The only problem was because he learned combat qi, the Barbarian energy might not go well with it.
Of course, Abel would not start practicing immediately. He would not rush learning the inheritance of a new species. He needed to do some long research first.
The team set off again early the next morning. With Barbarian Ruin leading, they headed towards a mountain peak.
Abel kept looking around. From time to time, he spotted some herbs on the ground that were worth quite a bit even in the Central Continent.
However, the others in the team don’t seem to care, so he just used telekinesis from time to time to grab those herbs back to his portal bag.
“Wizard Abel, it seems like you know a lot about herbs!” The priest saw what Abel was doing, so he speeded next to Abel on his mad wolf.
“Just a little!” Abel said casually.
“Did you develop that melting potion?” The priest continued.
Abel was caught off guard a little. He immediately replied, “No, that’s just something I’ve been doing!”
The priest did not continue to ask. He returned to his original position on his mad wolf. However, his eyes began to sparkle.
Soon, the team arrived at the base of the mountain. There were not many trees on the peak, only some blood-red rocks. Abel immediately felt his body heating up.
“This is red rock mountain. Everyone, withdraw your scent. be careful of the red stone monster here !” The priest warned.
He defused his bone armor and held down his scent to the lowest level.
Barbarian Ruin also did the same, followed by half-elf Leon.
“Wizard Abel, last time we didn’t know there was a red stone monster here and almost died. Big Horn had to sacrifice a few skeletons for us to escape.” Half-elf Leon whispered to Abel.
Abel nodded and defused his defense spell. He then moved his spirit, and the transformation necklace on his chest immediately hidden all his scents.
There was no need for him to learn any scent hiding technique with the transformation necklace. This was the power of a holy object.
The priest couldn’t help but look at Abel after sensing his scent disappeared.
The 3 mad olives were also put away. They were born vicious, and their scent could not be hidden.
The other summons was also put away to limit scents to a maximum,
Abel put Black Wind back in the monster ring. Although Black Wind could hold back its scent to an extremely small amount, no one was riding their mounts anyway, and Abel didn’t want to be the odd one out.
On their way up, Barbarian Ruin kept leading forward, the priest on the left, half-elf Leon on the right, and Abel at last.
Since there was no footpath, they could only rely on Barbarian Ruin for directions.
As the last one in the team, Abel focused all his attention on the surrounding red rocks. He casually picked up one of them. Those things were definitely not ordinary.
He could tell many of them were iron ores, even special ones.
The value of a mountain full of special iron ore was definitely no less than an ancient sight.
The iron density in those red rocks was not high. It would not be easy to extract it, but the others did not pay too much attention to the rocks because of this.
However, he believed if he forged a weapon out of this red rock in his hand, it could naturally bring about fire energy. If he forged a shield out of it, it could be fire resistant and ice defensive.
If Abel was not a grandmaster blacksmith, he would not have noticed the special iron ores. It was very hard to do so for other elite wizards or masters if they didn’t examine carefully.
Abel saw the priest carelessly kicking away a red rock, and he couldn’t help but do calculations in his head. The special iron ore that could be extracted from that thing worth at least a few times more than an intermediate gem. The products it could make could even be a few times more than that.
It was too bad. Those red rocks had fire attributes, but they could not become Johnson’s body. They could only be forged and sold off as a source of income at most.
Johnson needed something, at least the density of condensed iron. Those red rocks would only have the density of a purified iron even after his processing. The only thing different would be their fire attributes.
Johnson already had lightning attributes. Some extra fire attributes wouldn’t do much.
The priest did not care too much about what Abel did. Instead, he thought Abel was a country bumpkin who had never seen red rocks.
As he kept walking, he suddenly felt the ground heat up, and his instinct immediately sent him a danger signal. He instinctively moved in a flash and vanished from the spot.
Bang! The moment he vanished, a giant fiery red hand blasted out of the ground and grabbed hold of the white light Abel leftover from the flash.
Abel reappeared on a red rock on the other side and immediately added an ice armor and energy shield on himself. He looked towards that giant hand. The red rocks around it then began to shift, and a 10-meter tall red rock giant appeared from the ground.
That monster roared towards the sky and had its gaze was fixed on Abel. It was only targeting Abel.
“Wizard Abel, be careful. Do you have any objects with powerful energy on you? That red stone monster is very sensitive, and you must have attracted it!” Half-elf Leon yelled as he put on a wind armor.
Abel paused for a moment. The only things he had with strong energy were those perfect gems, but they were all in his Varaya’s ring.
He wouldn’t believe the sense of this red stone monster could penetrate the protection of a holy object, but this thing really was having its gaze fixed on him.
Abel would have never guessed that it was actually his dragon scent. Although his dragon scent was unnoticeable for other sentient beings, it was not the case with this red stone monster.
Since Abel had hidden all his other scents, this red stone monster thought he was a walking dragon trying to pick a fight.
Yes, the holy object transformation necklace was supposedly made by god, and it could perfectly hide the scent of all races but didn’t include dragon scent.
This was because the most powerful dragons were on par with the goddess of the moon, even though normal giant dragons were still a rank below.
Abel’s blue dragon energy has been ignited ever since he started practicing the ice crystal breathing technique. His body had gotten much stronger, and his dragon energy was fully unleashed. His dragon scent was almost 10 times as strong as his elite wizard scent.
