After hearing what Morton said, Abel immediately thought of the teleportation circle and defensive that was on the first floor of the tower.
These were all invented by the elite elves.

“Teacher, if humans have inherited the high elves’ occupation, then what about the orcs?” Abel remembered that the orcs had fought with the humans before.
If the humans had a share of the inheritance from the elite elves, then the orcs would’ve had similar kinds of inheritance too.”

“The Orcs have also gotten a wizardry system, but what they got was the much more gruesome death wizardry inheritance.
It evolved over the years, and due to their devotion to the orc gods, it gave rise to a cult and sacrifice.” Wizard Morton knew all about the orcs, and he added, “They said that sacrifices were able to communicate with the orc gods, and hear their commands.”

Wizard Morton then continued with a shameless look on his face, “The age of the gods ended long ago.
Even if the orc gods were still alive, they would most likely be hiding and living in some deep hidden place, on their last breaths.
How could they even have the energy to accept the sacrifice? It’s all just an excuse for the priests to provide resources for the orcs in order to control them, which the orcs had found some sort of spiritual entrustment within it.”

Abel was a little opposed to what wizard Morton had said.
This was because he had used an orcs technique sign a few times before.
These technique signs gave out an unparalleled impose pressure.
Although only a small amount of impose pressure could be reflected through the technique sign, it was enough to shock Abel’s soul.
As a person possessing a high power of the will, Abel had never felt another person with that amount of impose pressure, even Wizard Morton was nowhere close.
Therefore, Abel was afraid, using the orc’s technique sign was actually the remaining way to connect with the power of the orc gods.

Abel, of course, was going to keep this (His orc skill cards) as his little secret.
His “Mount enhancement” was certainly not an ordinary orc skill, which was evident in the physical changes of Black Wind.
Black Wind possessed Abel’s golden combat qi, no matter if it was a soul chain or an increase in body strength.
Even Marcy, who served under the Orc empire with ten years worth of experience, had never heard of such skills.
If the Orc kingdom had such skills, why didn’t they use this control sign earlier to control the orcs species? He didn’t know the answers, so the orc technique sign was Abel’s absolute secret.

Although to Abel, the Woolf family’s “no.
11 long spear technique” was only used by Abel to hide his identity while attacking his enemies.
However, this technique was still capable of killing a royal member.
Even though Abel was not afraid of anything, he still decided not to let anyone know about this technique.

Abel was very curious about the age of the gods, but he was able to tell that wizard Morton thought that the gods were a careless bunch.
This was probably because the wizard’s status nowadays was on par with the status of the gods.
Therefore, Abel didn’t ask about the age of the gods, but in the future, when he had more time, he wanted to read more books about the story of that era.

“Humans are good at learning.
Humans have mastered three of the four wizard systems of the elite elves: fire, ice, and electricity.” Continued Wizard Morton.

“Teacher, you mentioned about humans, orcs, and elves, but what about dwarves?” Abel thought that in addition to humans, orcs, and elves, there were dwarves who were closely related to him, and that race was clearly a powerful force in this world.
But why didn’t the wizard Morton mention about it?

“I was just about to talk about them.
So, when it comes to the dwarves, they had existed together with the elite elves since the ancient period.
As they were enthusiastic about forging, their relations between all other races were very good.
Alongside their enjoyment in living on large mountain ranges filled piled rocks, they had absolutely no interest in conquering lands as they had built their houses underground.
Hence, their race was able to survive for decades until now.
They even lived with through dinosaur age.
They truly witnessed the transformation of this world.” Wizard Morton said, smiling.

“However, the dwarfs were not totally unaffected by the battle between the three races.
There were a few times when they almost became extinct.
Therefore, in order to save their lives, they had also lost some of their inheritance.
Some of these inheritances were also picked up by humans.
Now, they become the other part of our rune system.
The rune sign and the magic weapons the dwarfs make are some direct results of this.

One of the most important things about the rune system was that it’s a set of different runes that can be used in battle in a variety of ways.
It would be a game-changer to turn any battle upside down.”

Abel finally realized at this moment the magic weapons he had forged before used this part of the rune system.
These runes were almost exactly identical to the runes in Diablo.
Abel was not sure how much of it was grasp by the humans, and if he could string a few of these runes together with a rune language to create those dark gold equipment.

Abel then asked with doubt, “Teacher, how many of these kinds of runes do we possess?”

“Not even the dwarfs have a complete rune system.
The only rune system we have is the lower tiers, and the higher tiers may be known by some dwarves due to their inheritance knowledge.
However, not everyone can learn them,” Wizard Morton said with a sigh.

“Further down the road, I will teach you the runes, I know.
You need to know that these runes are one of the main means of survival for a wizard and one of the most important trading items.
Every wizard good at runes is considered a wealthy wizard,” Said Wizard Morton with a little smug on his face.
From the teacher’s tone, Abel could tell that he was a wizard who had already mastered the art of rune-drawing.

“Another important item for the wizards would be potions, potions are learned from the elves.
As the elves lived in the forest, they had a strong depth of knowledge on natural growth and all kinds of minerals, as well as a strong study of different plants.
They have thus invented potion studies.
Humans further developed from the elves’ study by incorporating resources from the human world.
This is the human potion study we know today.
A core component to the training of wizards was using potions to recover the body, and those portions were direct result this.

Obviously, in order to attain resources as well as some other reasons, wizards would also create some potions for other professional uses.
Nowadays, potion study was not limited to wizards, as many ordinary people have mastered some simple potions production, but the more powerful potions required magic to be forged.
Hence the study of potions was still a main part of the wizards.”

“Potion study is not my specialty, so if you want to study potion, the only way you can learn is through studying it yourself.
But remember, no matter how much you want to learn these different types of knowledge, don’t let it affect your wizard practices.
I’ve seen too many intelligent wizards spending too much time on potions and rune drawing, but in the end, they weren’t able to progress further with their wizard levels.

“Yes, teacher! Abel bowed.

“Let’s talk about spells.
There are five types of spells you can learn during your novice wizardry period.
In addition to the “fireball” you’ve already learned, there are other spells.
For example, fire spells such as “Warmth.” Ice spells such as “Iceball” and “Frozen armor” electric spell such as “Charging bolt.”

The ice spell, “Iceball,” is a spell that produces crystals with cold energy to form a large ice bomb, which then fires the bomb, damaging and slowing the target.
This spell is considered extremely powerful too.

Frost spell “frozen armor” is a defensive skill.
For a wizard who was in their beginner stages, this skill could effectively protect the body of their weak bodies.
Moreover, it could produce an ice shield that would protect the wizard, preventing all close quarter attacks from their enemies.
The effect of this skill was able to provide bonuses in defense as well as freezing all short-range enemy who had attacked you.
For early-stage wizards, close combat had the highest chance of fatality in combat.

The electric spell “charging bolt” was a group attack spell, which involved a burst of lightning power.
After being incited, multiple warheads would be fired.
The leaping lightning energy will find and strike the target by itself.
It relied on the ground to conduct, so it only works on ground targets.

The last one is the fire spell “warmth,” which very few people learned this spell.
This was because, although it can speed up the mana recovery time, the rate of recovery was not that great.
On top of that, the pattern for this spell was extremely complicated, even more, complicated than the ones of the second and third layer spell.
Therefore, very few wizards had actually studied this spell,” Wizard Morton had explained to Abel every single spell he could learn currently.
