<h4>Chapter 885: Amodation</h4>


    Thunder ground was a gift from the universe for lightning-based. Abel had only scratched the surface, but he already developed a strong curiosity for this ce.


    “This is the operation area. You can exchange resources and ept missions here!” Wizard Hogg led Abel underground and opened a door.


    “Wizard Hogg, I remember a mission hall on the ground as well. How are they different?” Abel asked.


    “The one on the surface is for rank 17 wizards and above. Most of them are battle missions!” Wizard Hogg exined patiently.


    They stepped into the operation area, and all Abel saw was a patch of white. 4 illustration boards were rolling with information in the center. The walls on both sides were fully white. Even the counter and the apprentice wizards’ uniforms were white.


    The ce was so huge that it could fit hundreds of people, and at the time, there were already many wizards taking care of their business.


    When wizards Hogg stepped in, all the wizards paused and bowed, “Mr. Hogg!”


    Their gaze soon turned towards Abel with curious looks on their faces. It was extremely rare for Wizard Hogg to bring someone in personally.


    Wizard Hogg gently smiled and nodded. He then turned to a rank 4 apprentice wizard behind a counter and said, ” Marlon, help Wizard Abel register!”


    “Yes, Mr. Hogg!” He bowed, then turned to Abel and said, “Mr. Abel, can you please present me your wizard’s badge?”


    Abel handed his wizards badge over and saw that the apprentice wizard ced it on a counter’s magic circle. In a sh of white light, his check-in details were disyed on the counter.


    “Wizard Abel, us the Lighting n is a little different from other wizards organizations. Our information is up to date with the Wizard Union, so most of the missions here are from the Wizard Union. Of course, there are some we made exclusively for our members as well. Also, we use the same credit points as the Wizard Union!” Wizard Hogg smiled and said.


    “Wizard Hogg, so you are saying I don’t have to go to the Wizard Union to ept a mission from the Wizard Union?” Abel asked.


    He knew other wizards organizations had different credit points systems. This could unite their members and make them more likely toplete the missions set out by their organization.


    However, the Lightning n had adopted the same credit points as the Wizard Union and put up the Wizard Union’s mission on their mission board. This ce was almost like a small Wizard Union.


    One would need to be very confident in their members to run an organization this way.


    “We’re crazy for battles. The missions we set up ourselves are not enough, so we directly connected to the missions from the WIzard Union,” Wizard Hoggughed.


    “Wizard Hogg, can I use the level 3 authority of the wizard union here?” Abel asked attentively again.


    “Level 3 authority?” Wizard Hogg was caught off guard for a moment. He couldn’t help but ask, “Wizard Abel, you have a level 3 authority?”


    “Yeah, I helped save nd City, and the Wizard Union gave me level 3 authority!” Abel nodded. He wasn’t nning to hide this.


    “Seems like you did a great job at nd City. Only 5 wizards in the Lightning n have level 3 authority with the wizard union!” Wizard Hogg said in awe.


    A level 3 authority was only granted to those who contributed an extreme amount. There was no clear outline to achieve that, which made the level 3 authority even more respected and valuable.


    The Lightning n had the most powerful lightning wizards, and only 5 of them had a level 3 authority, so you could just guess how rare it was.


    “You can use your level 3 authority here. This ce is actually a part of the Wizard Union!” WIzard Hogg added.


    “Mr. Abel, your identity has been registered!” That apprentice wizard bowed behind the counter and said.


    “Marlon, see if there is any empty room on the 10th floor!” Wizard Hogg asked.


    The apprentice wizard gazed at Abel in shock and quickly searched, “Mr. Hogg, there is onest empty room on the 10th floor!”


    “Ok, give that ce to Abel!” Wizard Hogg said inmand.


    Soon, the registration wasplete, and the apprentice handed the wizard badge back to Abel.


    “Wizard Abel, let me take you to your amodations and show you around!” Wizard Hogg stuck his hand out and said.


    Abel then followed wizard Hogg out of the operation area from the door. They did not move in a sh; instead, they began to chat.


    “Wizard Abel, the potion area, the magic circle area, and the scroll area are located on the first floor. That’s the potion area right there, behind the door!” Wizard Hogg said, pointing at a door.


    “Since the potion makers in the Lightning n are decent at best, they can only make some for beginner and intermediate wizards. We, elite wizards, don’t have much use for those. Just the ones we steal are more than enough!” Wizard Hogg said with augh.


    Abel was speechless. He could tell how overbearing the Lightning n was by those words. Still, it made him feel safer being in an organization like that.


    He was still weak in the Central Continent. He needed a safe ce to grow. It seems like the Lightnings were a great support.


    “Behind that door is the magic circle area. The Thunder ground is not suitable for setting up magic circles, so we don’t have much skill when it came to making magic circles. They are only for personal use at most!”


    Abel suddenly realized it was not that they didn’t want to set up a protection circle in the Thunder ground, but they couldn’t.


    “That’s the scroll area!” Wizard Hogg said admiringly. He continued, “As elite wizards in our organization head towards the end of their lives, they gather theirst bits of energy and turn their spells into magic scrolls.


    Abel knew very well how a magic scroll was made. It was through sacrificing the spell level. This loss, along with the pain of the power of the will as well as the expensive resources, was the cost of a magic scroll.


    Abel couldn’t bear this sacrifice himself. A scroll could only be used once.


    Especially a move in a sh scroll. It was the best lifesaver for wizards, priests, and other upations. And they would all go crazy for one of them.


    Abel, on the other hand, had a bunch of the. He had 12 of them on hand, and that was after putting a bunch of them with on his family in the Holy Continent.


    Hearing those words from Wizard Hogg, Abel could truly sense how great some wizards were. “The second and third floor are for retreats. Other than elite wizards about to level up, we can’t go to those 2 floors for no reason!” WIzard Hogg continued to walk down and said.


    Abel nodded. He could sense the mana in this underground space was the most concentrated on the second and third floor below. His soul also sensed a scary force. Maybe the logic-defying wizards from the Lightning n were living there.


    “The acmation of our main fighting force is located from the 4th to the 10th floor!” Wizard Hogg said as they continued to walk.


    “I’m only rank 16. Am I a part of the main fighting force?” Abel asked in confusion.


    Abel was aware of his power. Although a rank above couldn’t do much to him, 2 ranks above would be able to limit his spells dramatically, and he wouldn’t be able to move on his wizard core if he ran into a wizard 3 ranks above.


    In his world, your rank as a wizard was like your authority. Without a special method, you could not face someone higher rank than you.


    “Wizard Abel, I’ve already registered a ce for you. You are only 20 years old, and you have reached rank 16. You are a genius. You deserve to be treated this way. Also, now I am officially inviting you to join my team!” Wizard Hogg said with a serious look on his face.


    “Wizard Hogg, I will most likely be a backup if I join your team, right?” Abel asked.


    “Yes. You need to fight against a member of the main team before you can join the main team. This is the rule!” Wizard Hogg nodded.


    Abel thought for a moment and quickly said in certainty, “Captain, I agree to join your team!”


    “Nice, you can call me captain from now on. You’ve seen the other members of our team. They are those 9 elite wizards who joined the wizard war. Actually, with your ability, you are more than capable of joining our main team. I heard you have already killed 4 elite wizards from the Blizzards not long ago!” A friendly smile emerged on Wizard Hogg’s face.


    “Captain, that’s not my actual power. I can only do so with my powerful contracted beasts!” Abel shook his head.


    “Wizard Abel, contracted beasts are part of your power. You need to have a certain skill to contract a powerful beast. Us wizards need a powerful shield, and something like Johnson is coveted by many wizards,” WIzard Hoggughed.


    Time flew by, and soon the two arrived at a door on the 10th floor below ground.


    “WIzard Abel, this is your room. You can rest today, ill introduce you to the others in the team tomorrow!” Wizard Hogg pointed at a door and then vanished in a sh of white light.


    Afterward, Abel took out his wizard badge. He scanned it on the door’s magic circle, and the door swung open.


    He felt a dense mana environment the moment he stepped in. Although it was filled with lightning elements as well, he knew there must be a giant magic circle gathering all those mana.


    The first thing he saw was the living room. There was ab on the left with a perfect experiment and alchemy bench. It was a must for every wizard. Even if a wizard didn’t know alchemy, he would specialize in research.


    Only through specialized research could one obtain good amounts of resources and take their understanding of spells to another level.


    On the right of the living room was a training room with a barrier circle. The Lightning n entirely supplied the energy and electricity. There was no need for Abel to use his gems.


    The training room walls were filled with mana gathering circle patterns, which made the mana concentration a few times denser than outside.


    There was a leisure space, office, private room, bathroom, and daily facilities beyond the living room.


    Abel never expected the main fighting force of the Lightning n to live in a ce like this. Compared to the living standard in the Holy Continent, this ce was too shabby. The only upside was the denser mana concentration.


    Even a rank 6 wizard would have his own magic tower in the Holy Continent, and that was a huge private space.


    This ce was not even the size of a floor on a magic tower. Abel just couldn’t understand.


    Abel didn’t know what the Thunder ground meant to others in the Central Continent.


    The Thunder ground’s special atmosphere had turned it into a heaven for lightning wizards and drove every apprentice wizard crazy. Training in that ce could increase their chance of getting lightning talent. Even a 30% lightning strike spell could scare off other wizards of the same rank.


    The Thunder ground was not big. Since the Lightning n always searched for youngsters gifted in lightning spells and powerful, gifted wizards woulde here to develop. The ce was even more popted.


    In this underground space, only the first 20 floors were suitable for elite wizards to live in. The mana got thinner as you get lower.
