It looked like he needed to go as fast as possible, but he still asked \"Does everyone receive the same upgrade in strength when they evolve?\"
Carla shook her head \"No, they don't. The upgrade you will receive will depend on your strength. When you cross realms from Evolver to Ascendant, your pure attributes will increase by a percentage, so the higher they are, the better it is. But that's not the only reward. However, the information I have, it is a costly one.\"
Dorian said \"You are supposed to tell me everything you know.\" Carla asked \"Why should I tell you? You didn't really save my life, I'm not indebted to you.\"
Dorian replied with cold eyes \"Because I can kill you.\" Carla froze for a second before saying with a helpless smile \"Good point. Still, I can't just tell you for free. Let's make a deal.\"
Dorian smiled coldly under his mask and asked \"Why should I listen to you?\" Carla clenched her teeth and said \"Listen to me, it will be beneficial to you too. You know, I talked about the guilds?\"
Dorian nodded so she continued \"As you know, I am currently on my own, and I'm not a fighter, so I need someone's protection. This is what I offer. You create a guild, and I join it. If I join, we will go to our worlds together, and you will have to protect me. I won't be useless though, as I have other uses.\"
Dorian stared at her, and thought about it. He had been alone in his last world, and he had seen how difficult it was. He had succeeded on his own because he could learn any skill just by practicing it. But from now on, if he needed any particular skill, and he will, the only way for him is to luck out and find a skill book.
However, forming a guild would allow him to concentrate on becoming stronger. So he asked \"How do I create a guild? Is there a cost? What can a guild bring other than its members, and what are the rules?\"
Carla said \"Creating a guild is simple, you can do it through the system. As for the cost, it is 2000 Dream Coins. It is a bit expensive, but it's worth it. Being in a guild changes the way you will go through your world too, because having more members allow you to do more side missions, and get a better reward. At the end of the mission, your rewards will be group ones, instead of individual ones.\"
Dorian asked \"What about the rules? Is there any fundamental rules?\" Carla nodded \"If you kill a guild member you receive a penalty, and betraying the guild is another penalty. Other than that, the rest of the rules are set by the Guild Master.\"
Dorian asked \"Is there any downside?\"
Carla said \"Of course. I told you about the guild wars, they are basically a fight between two guilds. The guild who wins gets rewards for their victory. Moreover, killing someone else in Eden will block any reward, but when you kill another Dreamer in a Guild War or in a mission, you get all their Dream Coins. That's why some Guilds will target newly formed guilds, to take their rewards.\"
Dorian said \"No need to worry about this. Is that it?\" Carla nodded, so Dorian looked at his status. He had 23 000 Dream Coins on him. He was surprised, but then saw that several of his items had been sold.
He looked back at Carla and said \"I will create a guild and take you in. Now, tell me that piece of information.\"
Carla bit her lip, as sexily as always, and said \"I guess I should trust you will keep your words, if we are going to form a guild…\"
She asked \"Shall we go? To a more private place?\" But Dorian shook his head and activated his [Mind Invasion]. As he entered her mind, he was surprised.
It wasn't empty. There was a big statue on the ground, depicting a naked woman. Carla. Just next to it, Dorian could see the spirit of Carla.
She said with surprise \"Where am I?\" Dorian appeared in his flame form, and said \"In your mind. This is an ability of mine. Now, tell me.\"
Carla looked at her statue with curiosity but she still said \"Do you want to know why there are so many predators on Earth?\" Dorian said nothing so she said \"There are requirements to become a Predator, with the biggest one being potential. The reason we can be so many is because of bloodlines. Earthlings almost all have the bloodline of a higher being, and they just need to unlock it. Being a predator means you have a bloodline, just that it is still sealed.\"
Dorian asked \"A bloodline is a requirement to become a Predator?\" Carla shook his head \"No. But Earth is originally weak, we have no magic or special energy, all we have is technology, which is not really our own strength. That means our potential to become strong warriors is very low. But bloodlines change everything, because this gives us a much bigger potential. In other worlds, they already have training allowing them to become superhumans, so they have the potential to become a Predator without a bloodline.\"
Dorian asked \"Is there a reason for us having more bloodlines?\"
Carla said \"Difficult question. I heard a theory though. When they get stronger in those worlds, they mutate as they evolve and their blood changes, which slowly caused the disappearance of bloodlines. But for us, because we have always been the same and haven't evolved a lot, we got to keep our bloodlines. It's just a theory though.\"
Dorian said \"Do you know your bloodline?\" Carla shook her head \"I need to unlock it to discover it. Or if I find a higher ranked bloodline, I will swap for it. But it's very difficult and you need a lot of luck to unseal your bloodline. Usually, the fastest ones who unseal their bloodlines are Ascendants, most do it when they become Transcendent.\"
Well, it looked like he was an exception. He asked \"You talked about ranks? There are ranks for bloodlines?\"
Carla said \"Of course, not all bloodlines give the same powers. They are classified with stars, a One Star bloodline is the weakest, and a 10 Stars is the strongest.\"
He wondered what rank his bloodline was, but he didn't ask as he wanted to eep secret the fact he had a bloodline, so he said \"So that was the information? The bloodlines? What about them, what do they have to do with the evolution?\"
Carla replied \"First, Evolving is in truth the name we give to the process of someone entering the Dreamworld. When someone goes from Evolver to Ascendant, it is an Ascension. Then, from Ascendant to Transcendent, it is Transcendence.\"
Dorian nodded \"Yeah, whatever.\" Carla smiled and said \"You look like a child sometimes. As for the bloodlines, you have a chance to unseal it when you go through your Ascension. And if by some miracle you already have unlocked it, or a part of it, you can force a mutation and get a little closer to your bloodline.\"
Dorian couldn't help but think of his Mutation Agent. Was that its use? Could he use it during his Ascension and get an even stronger mutation?
He then asked \"What about the Ascension? Can we do it in group?\" Carla replied \"As I said, there is a special mission to Ascend. You can bring your guild with you, and if some of them want to they can also try to Ascend at the same time, but they will receive a different mission. The other members can try to help them pass their mission.\"
That was convenient, he most certainly wouldn't need help for his own, but he could help his guild members go through their own. For example Carla, he could just help her sweep through her mission.
As he thought about that, he asked \"Is there a limit? Or will there be any consequences? Otherwise, you can just invite someone much stronger to your mission.\"
Carla said \"Everytime you get in a world, there are two factors: The number of worlds you entered will determine in which world you will be, and your personal strength will determine your mission. So if a much stronger person enter to help, the world will not be as dangerous to the powerful person, but his mission will be much harder.\"
Dorian couldn't help but say \"What about us? You went through more worlds, but I'm stronger.\"
