Chapter 1090: Overlord Lotus
Lotus glowed more brightly by the second, and her power began to grow rapidly before pausing at the bottleneck to Overlord.
Then, it pushed right past, and the glowing effect began to fade.
The work had stopped completely, and everyone was staring at the Cleric. Nobody had warned them that the Darklight Host could do crazy things like that. If they had known it was an option, they would have asked to be Alchemists and learned how to make that potion for themselves.
Lotus sat down on the floor, staring at nothing, but with a huge smile on her face as she recovered from the effect.
Tessa cleared her throat, and Lotus gave her a thumbs up, but didn’t say anything.
“I think she’s just overwhelmed. I will go next.” Nachtia declared, and grabbed the potion with her name on it.
She began to leak a dark black mist as the potion took effect, and her power soared, but it was clear that it was going to end far short of the Totem Ranked bottleneck. It just didn’t have the aura of Totem Ranked energy that would be necessary for the breakthrough.
Remi frowned. {I think that the ingredients simply aren’t powerful enough to go from Overlord to Totem this way. Maybe if you were right at the bottleneck. But I might need better ingredients.}
Nachtia shook out the tingling feeling from her arms, then cast a cleansing effect on herself after the effects of the potion ended.
“That’s fine. I can feel the increase in my mana pool and spell power. When I transform to Dragon form again, I suspect that I will be more powerful than I was before.”
That reminded Karl: He had a Guild item to equip.
{Eternity’s Blessing} Artifact Grade. Mythic Rank. Equips in Guild Inventory. Activates the Guild Skill [Eternity], granting Guild Members the physical stats expected to be present at the peak of their life, at their current Rank.
He had gotten it as part of the settlement of the Duel, but he had completely forgotten about equipping it in the Guild inventory.
He pulled up the interface, and placed the item, then frowned at the System Notice.
{Authorization lacking. Guild Skill active for members of the Drodh Branch only.}
Well, that ruined his plan to surprise Supreme Lady Matilda, but it was good enough for his people. Not that they actually had any old and decrepit members, or small children. The new assistants were young, but not young enough that it would be a huge change in their stats.
Ophelia and Tessa took their potions, and Tessa began to glow red, while the Berserker just gave off an aura of powerful oppression. So, the glowing effect wasn’t a new feature, it was a side effect of using it on dragon Priestesses.
One of the Lala bunnies pulled at Karl’s sleeve as the girls recovered from the potion.
“Sir, is it possible that we will be able to buy that later?” She whispered.
Karl nodded. “Remi just needs to grow a new batch of ingredients. She only had enough for these few potions. But once she has the materials, you will be with the other crafters in line to get your Ranks advanced before we offer it to anyone else.”
Well, if someone found out about it and brought Remi the ingredients, she would make them one, then keep the rest of the batch for the Guild. But that was unlikely. Many of these plants were effectively extinct, as rare as they were in the real world.
The new apprentices cheered, even though they knew that if they went in order, they were like twentieth in line. That was still relatively soon.
It was also motivation for the Commanders to work on their own growth in advance so that they could be Royals before the potion was ready. That way, they could be Monarchs right away, make really good stuff, and get some respect for their work.
They got right back to work, turning out bracelets to prove that they had the skills to be worth the Guild using a rare and powerful potion on.
Because if they had to buy a Totem Ranked advancement potion at retail prices, they would be old by the time they could afford it.
“Should we call someone over to find out about the Dungeon options?” Ophelia asked as the potion effect ended.
Tessa gave her an incredulous look. They had literally just finished reaching Overlord, and already the Berserker was thinking of ways to go find a fight. That was devoted to battle, even for her. Did the advancement or the potion trigger some level of her Berserker Rage?
Really, Ophelia was just eager to test out her skills, but there was no space in the house for her to transform.
Dana smiled. “I will contact Hugo. He said that there are options for Overlord Ranked Dungeons, and he can explain them to us. I would ask Deve, but I think that he will be busy for a while now that he’s finally returned to his own house.”
In her space, Cara laughed. Deve had been hiding from a whole house full of badger chaos for too long. He would definitely be busy for the day.
Dana paused as she sent the message. “Hugo will be over in a few minutes with members of his Overlord Ranked team. They are apparently short on healers, so they want to make a proposal for us to go with a larger team.
The dungeons that allow larger teams give better rewards, so they would like to invite us to do a few of those with the Alliance before we go to do the individual runs on our own.
Though, I suspect that the Clerics will get at least daily requests to join Dungeons now that the Alliance is about to find out that they’re all Overlords.”
Nachtia snorted in amusement. Tessa and Lotus surely would. But most people weren’t nearly as comfortable hanging out with a Black Dragon as the Darklight Host was.
Nobody here seemed to even notice the Black Dragon’s Death Aura that she naturally gave off.
