Armipotent

Chapter 1097: Trial For The Resurrected Spirit

”Do we know where they are from? From the look of it, they are not adventurers.” Rosalie came over and observed the armor on the dead bodies. The adventurers would not wear the armor uniformly like them. They came from more structured factions than the guild.

”He was talking about the crown prince and bringing back the dragon. If I am not wrong, these guys must be from the Virandal Empire.” Tang Shaoyang guessed. ”This crown prince of the Virandal Empire had an obsession for a dragon to the point of risking his force by trying to capture the Mistovelʼs descendant.”

”Can you ask your Bonemancer to make me a staff too?” Zowen all of a sudden made a request for Tang Shaoyang. ”If I have my staff, my lightning should be stronger, and I will not struggle like this.” She realized that while she was stronger than before she died, it was still not enough to keep up with the people who had adjusted to the system longer than she had. She felt like a magic staff would do the work to increase her magic attack.

Rosalie flicked Zowenʼs forehead. ”If you are too awkward to call him Master, then call him by his title. He is the person you serve and also the benefactor who gives you a second life. Also, this is for your own good. You need to get used to it, or else you will receive a lot of heated stares from his subordinates.” The Flame Empress shook her head. ”Especially Lu An. You donʼt want to be on his bad side. He is the nightmare of Mage and Elementalist.”

It was indeed awkward for Zowen to call him Master like the other spirits because she had never needed to do so before. However, she was alive now and had a physical body. She also had decided to stay with the Tang Empire, meaning she would serve him.

Tang Shaoyang shook his head. ”Itʼs fine. You donʼt have to if itʼs too awkward for you, but you need to address me formally when we are on an official occasion.”

”I will ask Skelly7 if he can make an Epic Grade magic staff.” He then agreed to the request without a second thought. If Zowen became stronger, that benefited him more than anyone else. ”What about you? Do you need equipment too?” He asked Rosalie. One was Magus, and one was Magus, but both wielded the same power that centered around magic.

”Elementalist do not need staff to amplify their magic attack, so I donʼt need one. However, an armor….” Rosalie shook her head. ”No, I donʼt want armor made of bone. I will choose one when we return to the main base.”

Tang Shaoyang gathered the corpses of the fifteen knights and thought of summoning a new spirit with it. He had lost Rosalie and Zowen, the spirit with the strongest magic power. He figured out that he needed one more spirit to replace them. Who knew he would need something with magic as there were a lot of things that could not be done without magic.

Skelly7 came toward him and made clacking noise. The Archmaster Bonemancer overheard his conversation with Zowen, and he was ready to make the magic staff. However, to make a high-quality magic staff, he needed the fourteen Myth Rank dead bodies and one Primordial Rank dead body. Skelly7 said those fifteen dead bodies had high-quality bone materials.

Fourteen Myth Ranks and one Primordial Rank sacrifice were enough to summon at least S Grade Spirit, or maybe even SS+ Grade Spirit. As he was contemplating, the two women brought up an interesting topic. ”Huh? We still can go through the trial even though we have surpassed the rank?”

Tang Shaoyang looked at Rosalie who mentioned the trial. ”What trial?”

”The trial for the Epic Rank. Apparently, we still can take the trial even though we are revived with a higher rank. However, there was a condition that the system will lower our levels down to level 1000 if we decide to take the Epic Rank trial.” Zowen explained with great interest.

The fact that they could take the trial despite being revived in a higher rank would benefit them more. The benefit of the trial was the reward where they could choose to awaken their bloodline and talent, or even choose the equipment.

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow for a moment, thinking of something. After a while, he voiced his thoughts. ”Donʼt take the trial now, not until you get the talent from the main base and also the second class. Since you brought your previous lifeʼs class, you can get the second class.”

Zowen and Rosalie were in the same situation as Marshal Alton, Moonsong, and the people from the Ortis Continent. They had a class already, but they awakened the class. They followed the training to awaken the class, and they still could take the class from the main base by paying with Game Coin. By doing that, they got the second class instead of replacing their old class. That was what made the people from the Ortis Continent a lot stronger than before because of Smart Base.

”Remember, you need to clear all the waves to obtain the highest grade reward, and you can awaken your bloodline in the trial.” Tang Shaoyang realized that his resurrected spirit would become a lot stronger when he revived them.

”Does that mean we can have three classes?” Zowen was excited when she heard what Tang Shaoyang said. From what she learned from following Tang Shaoyang, one could get more than one class as long as they obtained the class from different worlds.

Tang Shaoyang obtained his first class on Earth. Then he got the second class on Arkania Continent, then he had the chance to get the third class from the trial. The trial was considered a world itself since it was a separate dimension. That meant, they could get as many classes as they could as long as they had a way to access another world. That was the conclusion after Tang Shaoyang tried to get a new class from a different smart base, he needed to replace one of his classes.

”Since I am Ancient Rank now, that means I also can take the trial of the Ancient too.” Zowen nodded her head. ”I will get a new class and also a talent from the smart base. Then I will choose the third class for my Trial of Epic, then I will choose bloodline for the Trial of Ancient.”

”I donʼt know if I like your plan.” Tang Shaoyang shook his head. ”I know you are trying to min-max your gain from the trial. Since your original class is a strong class already, you want to save the bloodline for the trial of the Ancient for a higher grade bloodline. However, itʼs too risky if you donʼt have a bloodline and try to clear the trial of Ancient to the last wave.”

”Thatʼs true….” Zowen furrowed her brow as she could not refute Tang Shaoyang. She did not think she could win against Wrath if something similar popped out for the last wave. Tang Shaoyang who had a bloodline struggled to beat the Golden Dragon and was forced to use True Dragon to fight the dragon.

The Ancient Rankʼs trial was the Celestial Wolves, a pair. Could she beat them without a bloodline? Even though she was confident with her magic, she was not confident that her magic would be able to defeat the Celestial Wolf.

”Take your time. We have time to plan for the trial. If we are lucky, we might find another altar sacrifice, and one of you can take it.” Tang Shaoyang smiled as he noticed the pensive look on Zowenʼs face. With that, he also decided to give the fifteen precious sacrifices for Skelly7 to make a magic staff for Zowen. She needed her staff for the trial, after all.

Skelly7 was rejoiced when he was allowed to use the fifteen corpses, then he spoke again to Tang Shaoyang. He asked Tang Shaoyang to relay the message about what kind of staff she needed. It seemed Skelly7 could design the equipment, and he wanted Tang Shaoyang to be the translator between the two. Skelly7 could not speak yet like Kaiser, so he needed someone to speak for him. Tang Shaoyang was the only one who understood what the skeleton said.

”Ask Kaiser to do that. He can speak now.” Tang Shaoyang called Kaiser to be the translator for Zowen and Skelly7. Hearing that she would be able to make a detailed request for the magic staff, she became excited.

The three moved to the side for a discussion, leaving Tang Shaoyang and Rosalie with the remaining skeletons.

”What are you going to do now? As you predicted, the factions from the starter city #5 are hunting you.” Rosalie asked. They were not in danger yet, but it could be worse once their location was found out. Those factions would deploy their forces to capture the dragon, and the guild totally betrayed him by sharing his information. Even though the information was fake, it showed the guild stand.
