Tanky Mage System-Chapter 25

Powerful Bloodcaster

Black Dill continued, “Blood Magic Grandmaster Gog was a talented and ambitious Transcendent Grandmaster. His most famous achievement was the development of the supernatural class Bloodcaster. Before Gog, this supernatural class, Bloodcaster, existed, but it was neither famous nor powerful. But in the hands of Blood Magic Grandmaster Gog, this class that was quite peculiar started to display its terrifying power.”

Black Dill who was a star student had the air of a “scholarly” teacher. She had a lot of information regarding the supernatural classes, the traits of rare classes, their historical background, and their related events.

Gurney guessed that this Black Dill had already created her own Memory Hall.

Once the Memory Hall was created, one could browse their past memories without fear of forgetting details. It was a truly enviable ability, but Gurney knew that the price of creating a Memory Hall was that the person would need to spend a portion of their mental power to construct it.

This was a type of ability that was suited for supernatural researchers. It was not suitable for someone like him who was combat-oriented. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

“The core trait of any supernatural class is to pursue greater strength. It could be the strength of the individual or the depth of their knowledge, or even an exceptional survival skill,” Black Dill explained to them in a calm and composed tone. “And the methods to become stronger are very different. This is the key to classifying the various supernatural classes.

“For example, physical combat classes focus on strengthening one’s body. Spell-related classes focus on their offensive power. Darkness- and shadow-related classes focus on their own agility and survivability. This description is in essence the most fundamental trait of the supernatural classes.

“And right now, with the advancement of our research, everyone has already understood deeper things. To obtain even greater strength than ordinary Transcendents, one would need to have an even more profound trait in some aspects. The more profound and in-depth the trait is, the stronger the class will be. This is the consensus that is currently recognized in the researcher world. I don’t know if Gog knew this or not, but he inherited a predecessor’s Bloodcaster class and innovated with it, creating a new Transcendent Bloodcaster archetype that perfectly coincides with this theory. The core focus of the new Bloodcaster class that Gog made was ‘blood’.”

“Blood!” Hearing Black Dill’s description, everyone could not help but turn around to look at the blood pool gathering below the totem.

Currently, the arrows that Gurney made via Fire Arrow were still burning the blood in the pool.

“Compared to the average Spellcaster who strengthened his mental power and Transcendent body using origin force continuously, Bloodcasters can do the same, but at the same time, they are able to use even more of their power on their blood.

“The Bloodcaster class has an unparalleled supernatural trait when it comes to blood. They can strengthen their own blood, allowing it to contain immense recovery ability, and once the body gets harmed or injured, the blood would flow there to rapidly heal it. In other words, the blood of Bloodcasters is on par with healing potions of the same mass and quality.

“At the same time, Bloodcasters are able to raise the strength and activeness of their blood. This allows the blood to have its own supernatural trait and activity, which means that the blood of the Bloodcaster can seemingly come alive. It is like how we saw those blood tentacles taking form and moving on their own earlier.

“When ordinary Transcendents get injured, their blood would flow out. If they lose too much blood, they would die, but Bloodcasters would not. As long as they were willing, they would not lose even a single drop of their Transcendent blood.

“The logic that destruction of the body would cause death in regular combat is not something that is easily applied to Bloodcasters. Or more accurately speaking, when the organs of the body are destroyed, when the bones are cracked completely, when the vitality of the flesh is gone, these are all fatal injuries to other Transcendents. But it is not so for a Bloodcaster. Destruction of the body would not lead to death. The best way to deal with a Bloodcaster is to crush the skull completely and destroy the soul entirely.”

After hearing Black Dill’s description, everyone had excited expressions.

“It sounds like this Bloodcaster class is really powerful.” At this time, Yulair looked at the Blood Magic Totem with starry eyes; she sighed deeply and expressed her true feelings.

The others were also having similar thoughts.

Yulair and Gurney were both Spellcasters in the mage faculty. That was to say, she could use catalyst acceptance to obtain the inheritance of this powerful Bloodcaster class.

How could she not be moved by such a powerful class?

“Indeed, Bloodcaster is a very powerful class,” Black Dill said. “In fact, in the supernatural research world, Bloodcasters are considered a type of rare supernatural class, and its star rank is not low.”

“It is a special class with how many stars?” Gurney asked out of curiosity.

“Four stars!” Black Dill answered immediately.

There were many supernatural classes among the various archetypes.

Some had gone missing as a result of historical reasons.

Some were created in this new era and had rapidly risen in popularity.

Some had been passed down through inheritance for countless generations without fail.

The various supernatural classes, as long as they were not too sidelined, would be recorded down by the supernatural researchers. Next, some Transcendent researchers would classify them through various means before giving them a certain ranking.

Ordinary supernatural classes were not particularly different in ranking; they were mostly one star.

Two-star supernatural classes were already considered the entry-level of rare classes.

Three stars would be those powerful classes with few inheritors.

The higher the star rank, the stronger the supernatural class, traits, and abilities would be, and the quantity would also be much smaller as the ranks went up.

However, the classification through star rank was only the evaluation and status that professional researchers had given to the class. The actual situation of the supernatural world was that strength depended on the Transcendent himself, not the class.

Gurney pondered for a moment before asking, “Four stars, such a powerful class is only four stars? Does it have some sort of weakness or drawback?”

Black Dill turned around to look at Gurney and nodded lightly. “Indeed, this Bloodcaster class has a fatal weakness. Without it, this class would be at least six-stars or even a top-tier seven-stars class.”

At this moment, everyone’s gaze gathered on Black Dill. They waited for Black Dill to explain the fatal weakness of this Bloodcaster class.

“The Blood Magic Grandmaster Gog did a special transaction with a mysterious existence, causing the Bloodcaster class to erupt with unprecedented special power. But precisely because of this transaction, the Bloodcaster class had also contracted a mysterious curse. Whenever it is a Full Moon Blood Night, the blood of the Bloodcaster would enter a boiling state. During this time, the Bloodcaster’s strength would fall to its weakest level, the depths depending on the ratio of physical strength and blood power.

“However, the curse contained within the blood is very powerful. Even if one has an exceptionally strong body, their strength would still fall by half, and that is the best-case scenario.

“Spellcasters rarely had strong physiques, so in most cases, during a Full Moon Blood Night, the Bloodcaster would lose almost all of their strength although this situation would only last for several hours.”

“But… you should all know this. If your enemies know that you are a Bloodcaster and hate you to the core, then you will likely not live beyond several Full Moon Blood Nights.”
