On the first day of July, Abel appeared in the dining hall in the morning and had a sumptuous breakfast with ten guests.
His appearance was a sign to the entire Central Continent that his retreat was over.
He knew that he couldn't avoid becoming a legendary. He needed to get in touch with his allies. His sudden increase in power meant that he had to redefine his status with them.
Whether he wanted to or not, he had to do this.
Just as he finished his breakfast, three familiar and distinguished guests arrived.
Abel met with the three distinguished guests in the parlor.
Wizard Dolan smiled and said to Abel, "Legend Bennett, the last time I saw you, you were just a big Druil. How long has it been since then?"
Wizard Dolan's voice was full of admiration. He had never seen this kind of training speed in his long life.
If the Wizard Union didn't find out the reason for this promotion, even the Wizard Union would've captured Abel for research.
Abel went from an elite Druil to a legendary Druil in just a few years.
The Wizard Union knew that if they wanted the tree of life to help them, it was probably the only one in the entire Central Continent who could do that.
Abel smiled and said, "Wizard Dolan, I just became a legendary Druil, and I still haven't mastered the fighting style of a legendary. I'll have to rely on you to teach me!"
Wizard Dolan sat up straight and smiled, "The three of us are here to congratulate you on behalf of the Wizard Union. We'll also tell you some things that a legendary should know. As for the fighting style of a legendary Druil, I don't know much about it, but we can discuss it with you!"
Abel sat up straight and said, "Wizard Dolan, please go ahead!"
Wizard Dolan continued, "First of all, in the past thousands of years, all the legendaries have been legendary wizards. There hasn't been a legendary Druil, so the Wizard Union's requirements for legendaries are to become legendary wizards. The Wizard Union has done some research on your situation, and there are some things that we need to discuss with you in advance!"
As a matter of fact, the three of them were the closest to Abel. Wizard Dolan was the closest to Abel, so of course, he would be the one to explain to Abel.
Wizard Dolan added, "Legendaries are the strongest fighting force in the Central Continent, so no one is allowed to make a move, especially in the city. Of course, if anyone dares to offend a legendary, you can kill them anywhere you want!"
Abel nodded. This was something he could understand. Once a legendary aura was released, even weaker class holders would be killed on the spot, let alone in a city.
Still, most of the class holders had the same requirement. Since the legendaries had this requirement, it was probably because the legendaries could cause more damage!
Wizard Dolan continued, "Legendaries receive the worship of the entire Central Continent. Every hundred years, they can receive a holy crystal!"
Wizard Dolan's words caught Abel by surprise. The worship every hundred years was a holy crystal? This was beyond his expectations.
Abel pretended that he didn't know anything, "Wizard Dolan, what is a holy crystal?"
As a matter of fact, although there were some uses for the holy crystal in the divine heritage system that he got, there was nothing about wizards.
Of course, with the relationship between the divine and the wizards, there was no way that the holy crystal could be used for wizards.
Wizard Dolan explained, "Legend Bennett, although you haven't seen the holy crystal before, it has appeared around you many times. Every time the Evil Kingdom makes a move, they will use the holy crystal as the price to seal off the teleportation circle and isolate the target of the attack.
If you want to know what a holy crystal is, you have to know that there are two major training systems in this world. One is the professional training system, like the wizards, Druil, and priests.
The other is the divine training system. Currently, there are still some divine spirits in the Central Continent, and most of them are friendly with the Wizard Union. The divine training system requires the power of faith in addition to increasing one's own ability. "Wizard Dolan explained.
Abel interrupted Wizard Dolan, "Wizard Dolan, you're saying that the gods can enhance their own abilities. Does that mean it's not necessarily an increase in combat power?"
The first thing that came to Abel's mind was Thief God Milton, a divine spirit that didn't even have the ability to fight.
This was a wizard's evaluation of the gods, so it should be more objective. However, in the knowledge he received from the inheritance system of the gods, the power of the gods was infinitely exaggerated, so he didn't really believe it.
Wizard Dolan continued, "Haha, Legend Bennett, you've captured the key point of divine training. Indeed, divine spirits don't necessarily train in fighting power. Many of them get the power of faith from helping their followers. Only when they have a divine body can they be considered to have the ability to fight.
As for the divine spirits, they need the power of faith. The power of faith is stored and compressed in a special way. It's called the holy crystal. The holy crystal is as important to the divine as the training potion is to the professionals.
The Wizard Union got a lot of holy crystals from the captured divine spirits. After a long time of research, they realized that the holy crystals could greatly improve the meditation effect of wizards. Of course, due to the preciousness of the holy crystals, only legendary class holders can get one every 100 years. "Wizard Dolan continued.
Abel interrupted again, "Wizard Dolan, I'm a legendary Druil. Is the holy crystal useful?"
Wizard Dolan smiled, "Legend Bennett, I don't know if the holy crystal has any effect on legendary druids, but it's a gift from the Wizard Union. If you don't need it, you can trade it with me. I'll give you a price you'll be satisfied with."
However, his answer immediately displeased the two legendary wizards who had been silent all this while.
Wizard Galon smiled, "Dolan, how can you be like this? Can't we give you a price?"
"Legend Bennett, don't mind them. The holy crystal is very precious. It has a lot of magical effects. Even if you don't use it for training, you can still use it for other purposes. Besides, if you want to get the most out of it, it's best to trade it with a god. Considering your relationship with the Moon Goddess, one holy crystal is enough to make her pay a lot!" Wizard Doran couldn't stand it anymore and explained.
Abel knew that the legendary wizards were just joking. Even if they wanted to hide this from him, they wouldn't be able to do it for long.
He asked casually, "Can the Wizard Union produce holy crystals?"
Wizard Dolan didn't hide anything, "Of course not, but the Wizard Union has a lot of holy crystals in their spoils of war. Plus, they've opened up their faith to some gods, and they've also gotten some holy crystals from the gods. They're more than enough to support the legendaries!" Wizard Dolan didn't hide anything.
Abel thought about the elves, but with the Moon Goddess's control over them, it shouldn't be the Wizard Union that started the faith.
He then thought of some churches he had seen in the secular world. Those churches that targeted ordinary people would sometimes use holy water and 'healing spells' to treat the sick and injured.
Of course, those holy water and healing spells were only effective for normal people. They couldn't affect class holders at all, so he didn't pay much attention to them.
No matter what, he had always thought that these seemingly ordinary churches were deceiving people.
Now that he thought about it, he realized that those were the Wizard Union's so-called offering of faith. The gods they worshipped were real gods, but they were only for normal people. The power of faith was shared with the Wizard Union.
Wizard Dolan said with envy, "Legend Bennett, the Wizard Union requires every legendary to serve the Wizard Union for 30 years every 100 years to ensure that there are enough legendaries to suppress the Evil Kingdom. However, considering that you're a grandmaster alchemist and have made great contributions to the Wizard Union in potion making, your service is canceled out!"
Abel didn't know how much the three legendary wizards were jealous of him. Although there was such a rule, some powerful legendary wizards would use their own resources to exchange for services from new legendary wizards.
For example, the five legendary wizards that Abel knew had been serving the Wizard Union for hundreds of years. They were accumulating resources for their retreat training in the future.
They used their own time to exchange for resources from other legendary wizards who wanted to go into retreat. Those resources could help them increase their power after they went into retreat.
Abel was a grandmaster alchemist himself. He provided a large amount of potions to the Wizard Union, so the most powerful person in the Wizard Union made this decision for him.
Of course, Abel wasn't even a member of the Wizard Union. Even the title of headmaster of the Wizard Union was a reward, not a responsibility.
The most powerful person in the Wizard Union had considered these rules for legendary wizards, so they didn't expect something like a legendary Druil to happen. On top of that, Abel did make a huge contribution, so his service was canceled.
Wizard Dolan spoke in a serious tone, "Legend Bennett, although your service has been canceled, if a legendary battle with the Evil Kingdom occurs, you must participate. This is not for the sake of the Wizard Union, but for the sake of the entire continent and the entire world."
Abel lowered his voice, "Of course, I'm a member of the Central Continent. I'll do my best when I'm needed!"
He knew that no egg could escape unscathed when the nest was overturned. On top of that, he had a grudge with the demon from beyond. The Wizard Union didn't even need to mention it. He would participate when needed.
Wizard Dolan smiled, "Don't worry, Legend Bennett. The Wizard Union won't let you join the battle unless it's the final battle. Your potions are more important than the battle itself."
Wizard Dolan was telling the truth. Even if a druid had reached the legendary level, there was still a limit to what they could do.
Wizard Doran said, "That's about it, Dolan. I need to discuss something with Legend Bennett!"
Abel looked towards this rare female legend.
Wizard Doran smiled and said to Abel, "Legend Bennett, you've been in retreat ever since you made the life potion for Dolan. I've waited a long time for you to come out. Why don't you consider making a life potion for me as well? I'll give you the reward you deserve!"
Wizard Dolan showed off the life prolonging potion in front of them for a while before drinking it. She and Wizard Galon almost teamed up to beat Wizard Dolan up.
For a long time, they didn't have the chance to talk to Abel. Abel was in retreat.
Of the three legendary wizards, only Wizard Dolan could freely enter and exit the golden castle. Their relationship with Abel was only normal. They didn't want to disturb Abel when he was in retreat, so they didn't want to ruin their relationship.
"Wizard Doran, it's not a problem for me to make a life potion, but I need fresh divine blood as the main ingredient. Are you ready?" Abel didn't reject. The life potion was a little troublesome, but as long as he had all the ingredients, it wouldn't take long.
"What? You need fresh god's blood?" Wizard Doran couldn't help but look towards Wizard Dolan and ask, "Dolan, did you take the blood of the god of war?"
Wizard Dolan spoke with a little pride, "Yeah, Legend Bennett said that the fresher the blood, the better the effect of the potion. So, I brought him to the basement of the headquarter and took the blood of the god of war to make the potion."
Wizard Doran glared at Wizard Dolan, "Damn it, we'll have to wait another 10 years before we can ask Legend Bennett to make the life potion again!"
As a matter of fact, they still had a long life ahead of them. Making the longevity potion was just a preparation. If any of them were about to die, Wizard Dolan would never take the longevity potion in advance.
