Abe the Wizard

Chapter 1336 – Shoot Out

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

How much energy was in the magic circles of the golden castle? You can just imagine looking at that burning white glow of the super cannon.

Not only was the barrel glowing, but even the base was also overflowing with energy.

A chilling horror sifted around. Even headmaster Eugene had to show his dragon scale in order to feel safer.

Although he couldn’t transform into an actual giant dragon, a stronger defense was definitely necessary if the cannon blasted open.

“Blue dragon Abel, careful!” He yelled, seeing that Abel did not react at all.

Abel waved his hand. He knew his creation was working fine even though the energy was a little unsettling.

He could blame himself for going cheap on the materials since he was supposed to make the entire thing out of Grandmaster grade material instead of only the surface.

What he made did not hold in energy near as well.

But at the same time, he might not be able to make a cannon of this size even if he gathered all the grandmaster grade material of this world.

“Headmaster Eugene, don’t worry. I’m a grandmaster Alchemist!” Abel smiled with confidence.

The energy gathered very fast, but the first shot would still take more time since the magic circle spirit and research spirit have never ignited every 5 star magic circle in the golden castle at once.

Once they were used to this process, it would be much quicker.

After 5 seconds, the super cannon was ready to fire with the energy of tens of thousands of 5 star magic circles.

The indestructible power of the 33#zod rune was on full display. The cannon would not be damaged no matter what, which technically meant Abel could let the energy build forever.

However, this would be very risky. The super cannon was too close to the golden castle, and the golden castle might take a hit as well.

Also, the ancient magic pattern on the super cannon had its limit, so there might be a problem if too much energy tried to go through at once.

Still, Abel wanted to test it as a limit in this first shot.

“Magic circle spirit, fire!” Abel got confirmation from the magi circle spirit and called.

Afterward, the super cannon turned towards the sea monsters and bang—almost like an earthquake.

The compressed energy blasted out at an instant, and a thick 20 meters wide beam was unleashed from the cannon towards the sea monsters.

For the next ten thousand meters, a 20 meters wide hole was opened up in the giant waves. Not only were the sea monsters within all dead, but even the wave particles were also vaporized.

All of a sudden, an eerie silence loomed over, and the strangest thing happened. A second after the beam faded, the waves did not collapse immediately. Instead, it was frozen in its shape before blood gushed out from the mangled dead bodies.

However, this 20 meter wide hole only managed to kill around a thousand sea monsters, and since those sea monsters had lost their consciousness, they kept going.

The wizards, on the other hand, were looking very different.

The power of the impact just then was something only a top level god rank could counteract.

Wizard Smith was the one filled with the most fear. He always thought Abel went on far when he damaged his world with his dimension force, but he was glad after seeing what happened. If Abel had shot him with the super cannon that day, he would be dead.

“Careful!” Wizard McPhee yelled before arriving next to Wizard Smith and cast a nova blast, killing a fire incoming Seabees.

Wizard Smith was almost poisoned as he was distracted, and it would be a huge hassle if he did.

“Thanks!” Wizard Smith nodded and cast 10 fire walls again before taking a breath.

“Smith, what happened seems like a mana cannon!” Wizard McPhee then added.

“Yeah, but the power was on a completely different level!” Wizard Smith nodded again.

The mana cannon was an ancient weapon. The wizard union had some, but they rarely used it since they could only be used once before falling apart.

Also, the time it took to gather energy was too long, so it could only be used on fixed targets. 

“The dragons are too cocky, sacrificing a great weapon like this to win against us!” Wizard McPhee sighed.

Since the mana cannon could only be used once due to an overflow of power, it was safe to assume that something a few times more powerful could only be used once as well.

“Yeah, what a waste!” Wizard Mosley agreed. But when they were still discussing among themselves, another thick beam shot out from the golden castle.

It had only been around 3 to 5 seconds since the last shot. Those sea monsters were basically hopeless against its horror.

The power was to Abel’s satisfaction, maybe even beyond it, but he was not too excited.

The super cannon continued to fire, and each time, the energy was just as unsettling, but headmaster Eugene was growing numb to it.

“Blue dragon Abel, can you mass produce this thing?” His eyes were fixed as he asked in excitement.

“Headmaster Eugene, this is the only one super cannon in this world!” Abel shook his head,

“Ain’t you the one who made it?” Headmaster Eugene continued.

“Yeah, but the most important thing Is the core and I’ve wasted it!” Abel sighed.

“Wasted it? What do you mean?” After witnessing what the super cannon was capable of, there was no way Headmaster Eugene would call it a waste.

“This super cannon is a failure, it did not meet my expectations!” Abel said in pity.

“Blue dragon Abel, what are you expecting?” Headmaster Eugene had never been so confused.

“I was planning to use this thing to kill god ranks when I made it!” Abel said blankly.

As a god rank, saying such a thing was no longer outrageous.

“Then you succeeded, no god rank could sustain that blast just then!” Headmaster Eugene continued.

“Yeah, but every god rank would be able to escape in 3 seconds!” Abel explained.

Headmaster Eugene went silent. There were not many weapons in this world with the power to injure god ranks, so the super cannon was already a work of extraordinary achievements.

However, Abel was still not satisfied. Back when the energy was gathering, he already knew that every god rank within thousands of meters could sense the super cannon’s presence. 

Although the magic circle spirit could aim very well, it still took a second considering how long the barrel was.

Suddenly, he remembered that special bless aiming ability of the super cannon. If his enemy was still moving in close proximity, that ability might still come as a surprise.

Maybe this super cannon was still useful in some situations. The super cannon was already used. It was too late to regret anyway.

Little did he know, the wizards were far more stunned than headmaster Eugene.

This was because headmaster Eugene did not have to worry about Abel attacking him, but those wizards could not guarantee that other wizards would stay out of trouble with Abel.

After everything that happened in the past, it was chilling to imagine Abel using the super cannon on the Wizard union.

God ranks have been enjoying the status of being invincible for too long but was finally scared.

First was the sneaky attack of thief god Milton with Doff, the god of war, then the super cannon.

Not only did it kill off every sea monster on the dragons’ side, but even the wizards’ side was also dying out.

Just like that, a crisis was resolved like it was nothing, and the Wizards speechless exchanged gaze. They couldn’t just go away without saying anything.

Even losing the competition, they had to suck it up and accept their defeat..
