Armipotent
chapter-353

Zhang Mengyao hated Healer for a fair reason. It was indeed related to the fifth portal of the Survival Game. She and the girls' group were sent to serve a kingdom.

In that world, people called Mage or Healer as Mana User. Manipulating mana as they wanted hence they were called Mana User. To be one, one had to possess a talent for that hence Mage and Healer were scarce in that world.

The healer in that world was arrogant and haughty. Once an incident happened that Zhang Mengyao and the knight battalion she was in was ambushed by the enemy.

Hundreds of knights were injured and needed immediate care. However, the healer refused to heal her people for free. Even though they were from the same kingdom, the healers hoped for a reward in exchange for their healing ability.

She was furious, but she agreed to reward them. Zhang Mengyao thought that if it was money, the kingdom would pay these healers. However, the thing they asked was outrageous. The chief of the Healer Corps wanted to sleep with her for the payment.

The Chief of the Healer Corps was beaten almost to death, he almost died if not for the interference. Because of the conflict, three hundred and thirty-four knights died for not receiving treatment. It was so stupid, but the matter was over with the royal family's interference.

Tang Shaoyang thought this was not enough reason for her to hate the profession of a healer. However, the problem did not stop here. The Healer had the Royal Family backed them hence this prideful group began harassing Zhang Mengyao's battalion because of the conflict.

It was until one day, Kang Xue was framed by the Healers that she killed one of them. The Royal Family said that the suspect had to follow the Healer Tower for a trial. At this time Zhang Mengyao snapped out of her calmness.

She slaughtered the people who tried to catch Kang Xue. Thirty-four healers were killed and twenty Royal Guards perished under her lance, alone. Right after that, Zhang Mengyao and her group escaped from the kingdom.

They did not care about the objective given by the system. They survived in the wild for three days until an envoy from the kingdom she fought against approached her. The kingdom offered her a position to lead an army to fight against the kingdom she served before.

This was where things got interesting. Enemy of her enemy was a friend, she decided to deflect as the kingdom's offer was too tantalizing to be rejected. Five of them were allowed to enter the Goddess Light of Temple to get a blessing.

Thanks to this blessing, Zhang Mengyao got her bloodline, and Kang Xue got a Unique Class, Light Possessor. Learning from her lesson, she made sure that there was no healer in her battalion. She was relying on Kang Xue to heal her people.

That was what happened to Zhang Mengyao, the reason why she hated the Healer, "That's why I don't want to prioritize the healer. I don't want them to be cocky or proud like those bastards. We can't be too reliant on the Healer!"

Zaneos and Zowen wanted to say something, but Tang Shaoyang stopped the two before they could speak. He pulled her and kissed her on the forehead, "I am not that stupid ruler who gets controlled by his people. If our healer group acts like that, we can chop a few heads to warn them!"

"However, you can't get too emotional and put your personal feelings in the decision. Healers certainly hold an important position in our army and we need them. Also, I plan to put Kang Xue, Arina, and Selena to lead our healers…" his voice trailed off.

Zhang Mengyao raised her head and noticed the pondering expression, "What's wrong?"

"If we want to train the healer then we no longer need the Medical Division? Should we disband that division?" Tang Shaoyang asked Zhang Mengyao.

"But we don't know yet if a healer could cure the disease," Zhang Mengyao pointed out the healer's drawback, "We still need the normal doctor to tend us if the healer can't cure sickness."

"Healer can't cure the disease!" Zowen interrupted midway, "But it should not be a problem for Potion Maker to make a potion to cure the disease with the right concoction."

"If that's the case, we need to capture this city soon. We have to complete every mini-game available in the city. We have to repair the Alchemist Facility and get someone we can trust to have this Potion Maker Class," Tang Shaoyang voiced out his thoughts.

With the current condition, healthcare was something they should prioritize. Zombies appeared, the animal evolved into a fierce beast, and the disease might mutate too. The Medical Division was still needed to tackle this kind of problem.

"Then let's get this done and start planning our future project. We need more people to explore the city and search for the mini-game," Zhang Mengyao was eager to make the move.

[Cao Jingyi has made a map of the city and marked the areas that have been explored and which areas have not been explored.] Origin added crucial information.

"Let's upgrade Warrior to Elite Warrior," Tang Shaoyang did not consult with the people in the room about which class he chose for the advancement.

"Why Elite Warrior?" Zaneos was the first one to ask Tang Shaoyang about his choice.

"Our enemy is a zombie, we don't need a specialized class to face them. The versatile Elite Warrior is the best one with our current situation. We don't need our army to have a strong striking power of the Heavy Warrior or the flexible movement of the Light Warrior. We need a stronger warrior if a special circumstance arises, we can upgrade the Elite Warrior either to an upgraded version of Heavy Warrior or Light Warrior," Tang Shaoyang explained his thoughts.

"That's indeed the right choice for now," Zaneos agreed to Tang Shaoyang's decision. Zowen and Zhang Mengyao agreed as well. Depending on what they needed, they could always upgrade the class whether the Heavy Warrior or Light Warrior. It was still too early for a specialized unit or class.

After the harmonious agreement, Tang Shaoyang tapped the Warrior class and selected Elite Warrior for the upgrade.

[Congratulations! The warrior class has successfully been upgraded to Elite Warrior!]

[Upgrade Notice]

Class Point: 2

Basic Class:

1. Elite Warrior (10,000 GC) (Upgrade)

2. Guard (Upgrade)

3. Archer (Upgrade)

4. Mage (Upgrade)

Unique Class:

1. Cleric [Advance Class] (1,000,000 GC)

2. Flame Mage [Advance Class] (1,000,000 GC)

3. Blacksmith [Advance Class] (1,000,000 GC)

4. Potion Maker [Advance Class] (1,000,000 GC)

5. Wind Mage [Advance Class] (1,000,000 GC)

Two noticeable changes could be seen. First, he realized that to get Elite Warrior Class, they had to pay ten thousand coins. It was unexpected as he thought the Basic Class should be free.

The second change was the additional class on Unique Class. Wind Mage was a new mage class added to the Unique Class option.

"So we have to pay to get the class now?" Tang Shaoyang asked Origin.

[Yes. That's why I told you that 400 million coins are not a lot, My Lord. Later, we need more coins if you want to repair the Alchemist Facility and build the Smithy too. These two facilities would need a lot of money, not only for the materials but their specialized tools too.]

Tang Shaoyang shook his head, that 400 million is indeed not many. However, this was more than enough in this early stage, 'I have my coins too, but we need to implement the system and order in our territory very soon to implement the tax and other things.'

"Let's see the upgraded version of Elite Warrior first before you upgrade the mage to the healer," Zaneos said to Tang Shaoyang, "We need more information on what we can get from the class."

The Demon Swordsman could see the transparent screen, but he could not tap the upgrade since he did not have the authority. Tang Shaoyang nodded and tapped Elite Warrior Class.

[Elite Warrior Class Upgrade (2 Class Points)]

1. Sword Warrior

2. Spear Warrior

3. Ax Warrior

They had enough points to upgrade Elite Warrior. However, even if Tang Shaoyang had enough Class Point, they had to consider the cost to get the class. They could upgrade the class, but they would need a lot of money for all Tarriors to get the same class.

"If Elite Warrior cost ten thousand coins, the upgraded class should be around fifty thousand to a hundred thousand coins. We should stick to our plan instead," Zhang Mengyao shared the same thought as him.

Zowen and Zaneos did not voice out their argument, indicating they agreed as well. They had to consider the cost into consideration before upgrading the class or not everyone could have the class as coins involved.

After that, Tang Shaoyang upgraded Mage to Healer. The upgrade option on Healer and Elite Warrior disappeared, indicating they could not upgrade the two classes anymore since they did not have enough Class Points. It was a pity since Tang Shaoyang wanted to see the upgraded class of the Healer.

"What about the remaining point? Should we save it for later or use it to upgrade the Guard Class or Archer Class?" He had an idea in his mind, but he wanted to listen to his people's opinions.

"Better use it now for efficiency. We can have a strong front line with Elite Guard in the front or strong support with Elite Archer in the back. We are lacking in coins since we are in a development phase, a stronger class will cost more coins. Unless we want our people to use their own–" Zhang Mengyao shook her head, "Not everyone has enough coins, we have to sponsor them since they are our army."

Zaneos and Zowen did not disagree with the idea, and Tang Shaoyang had the same idea too. Now more discussion was needed as they had to decide whether it was Archer or Guard.
