Chapter 564 Upgraded Clan

Chapter 564 Upgraded Clan

The other Ascended Rank Spellblades came out excited about the official status upgrade and the class marking on their arms that came with the System designation of Mage, but only a few of the older Commanders could say the same thing.

They were the ones who had already been exposed to the system during their travels, and had some minor level of benefit from it, though not a whole class designation and marking.

Nearly all of the ones who had been successful had gotten Mage as a class, but unlike the members of Karl's group, they were not sent to an upgrade scene, but a class creation menu, where they could have chosen other options.

Just to be different, one of them chose Warlock as his class, but the rest all chose Mage so that it didn't affect their progression or standing within the Spellblade Clan.

The Clans had thousands of years of history, and if their choice prevented them from advancing within the Clan, or stuck at Commander Rank until their new Class caught up to their existing skills, they would have a hard life.

It wasn't the huge win that Corbin had been hoping for, but to the newly awakened mages, it was still incredible.

They now had access to the inventory, the status sheet and even to Skill Trees that would allow them to earn access to new spells that were incredibly difficult to learn on their own, or in some cases completely forgotten before today.

One of the higher level Mage Spells in the tree was [Portal]. If they could make it to the peak of the Mage Skill tree, they would be able to simply open portals on their own, and not rely on arrays.

From the way they described it, Karl learned that some of the more powerful leaders of nations were permanently linked to arrays, and some skilled mages carried an array token with them, but under the Monarch Rank, it was extremely rare to have that sort of access.

"Leader Corbin, do we have time to go through the Skill Tree now? Or should we move first?" One of the stronger Commanders asked.

"Move first, and we can check your new spells later. What did you see that has you so excited?" Corbin asked.

"I have eighty Skill Points. My past achievements appear to have been rewarded, and I will be able to choose a number of additional spells. Does anyone know how many points it takes to get them all?" He replied.

Karl noticed that they seemed pale blue and ghostly when they were hidden, where before they were simply invisible. That had to be the effect of Hawk increasing his sensory abilities and sharing them with Karl.

Soul Sight, Leafa had called it.

It wasn't visible when you could see the person, but with their body hidden, the soul became visible.

The Spellblades got a thirty-second head start before the first Portal opened, quickly followed by a second, third and fourth.

"Wow, did we pick the wrong day to be standing right here." Tessa muttered as the portals finished forming.

Karl smiled at her. "Should we hide Lotus in a basement or something so she can resurrect the pieces of us later?"

"Not funny. It's most likely a good idea, but not funny." Tessa agreed.

Lotus giggled and patted her on the shoulder. "There are no basements in these buildings. I can feel the roots of the plants. Just try not to get squished, and maybe ask Lady Rae and Cara to wait out of sight so they're not tempted to start a fight."

Rae looked offended. "And why would I do that?"

"To get Totem Rank blood."

"Point taken. But if there is a chance..."

"We will get you some."

Rae smiled, then vanished back into her space, followed by Cara and Hawk, who was making preparations to grab as many people as possible and fly away. He was exceedingly fast in this new body, and they should be able to make it to safety if a fight broke out.

Two ladies per claw, Karl on his back. That should be everyone, and he could still fly with that much weight. Even four friends were lighter than a Giant Boar.
