Reign and the others smiled after the announcement, it was a bit annoying that they had once again been put on a world announcement, but it mattered little to them at this point.

They quickly went back to the mountain base before walking through the portal and reaching their territory.

They were met with cheers from the residents who had all heard the world announcement and were beyond excited at this point.

Reign and the others spent a bit of time thanking the people and talking with them before Reign told them not to get close to one area of the territory.

Evolution could get violent at times and everybody knew better than to simply do it anywhere.

They chose an area of the territory that was pretty much empty. They wouldn\'t be able to destroy anything there even if their evolution was ten times more powerful compared to the first one.

They came to the area before each one of them, except for Greenie who simply needed to wait a little bit more before naturally progressing to the next tier, and sitting down at different locations.

They made sure to leave a lot of space between each other in order to not interfere with the evolution of one another.

Reign was the one that was furthest away from the others. He already heard of what happened during his first evolution from Lieara and the others so he was definitely not going to take any risks and hurt anyone.

Soon, they all started the evolution process.

Mana started getting drawn over from not only the town but from the surrounding areas as well. The system immediately started working as well, balancing out the mana in the areas from where it was growing weaker so that nothing would change after the evolution.

As some time passed, the area around each of them started changing.

Fire appeared around Wolf while the illusion of a dragon covered in purple flames appeared above him. The illusion was only about half a meter tall, but it was able to strike fear in the hearts of any that would glance at it.

That was the biggest benefit of having a mark, a benefit that would only start appearing at the second evolution and higher.

The marks were left by gods and their lingering power would be brought out during the evolution in order to help the bearer of the mark. If anything catastrophic was about to happen, the mark would save the bearer, but in turn, the bearer would lose the mark.

It all depended on what evolution the bearer was going through. Gods had high standards and the marks would only serve as protection against external threats until the sixth evolution. At the sixth evolution and higher, the marks would be able to help the bearer and allow him to pass it with less trouble.

It also depended on the God that had given the mark and what restrictions they had placed. For example, Beast, even though he was given a mark by a Low-God had the best terms.

The mark would help him out from the fourth evolution onwards as the girl that had given him the mark had high hopes for him and was thankful that she could get a bearer.

Wolf, Reign, and Shadow were the ones with the hardest restrictions, especially Wolf and Shadow whose marks wouldn\'t help them before the 9th evolution, as for Shadow, it would only help him from the 8th evolution onwards.

The marks given to the three would also not save their lives before the tenth evolution. They had gotten the marks from 2 High-Gods and a Peak-God, and they were not easily satisfied.

Even Aethion, who was once a Transcendent had only heard of one person going through the 10th evolution, but the Gods who had an endless lifespan, they had seen many like that.

Above Shadow appeared a flower that seemed to contain the laws of death itself while numerous shadows appeared around him and started coiling around.

Laura had demonic purple flames appear around her and her body also started turning a bit demonic. Purple demonic energy appeared around her as a phantom of a demon appeared above her. The phantom had no features and didn\'t even have a body, but the incredible bloodlust that it contained washed over the area and made the monsters and players tremble.

Beast\'s summons all appeared around him and started going through an evolution as well. He had previously managed to tame two more monsters and was at full capacity. The figure of a splendid bow appeared above him, an arrow was notched and ready to be fired in the case of anybody daring to interfere with the evolution.

Tank sat down and turned into what looked like a demon whose skin was made out of bronze. The figure of a demon ogre appeared above Tank and looked around him, ready to pounce on anyone and anything that came near.

As for Reign, the evolution he was going through made the biggest impact.

Lightning fell around him as clouds appeared above the whole town.

Most of the lightning dispersed after hitting the ground, but some small arcs would still linger before moving closer to Reign until hundreds were covering the area around him.

A lightning bolt was levitating above his head and kept the lightning from coming closer to him.

Suddenly wings suddenly appeared on Reign\'s back. One was as white as snow while the other was as black as night. Just like during the first evolution, the wings started covering Reign while more and more lightning fell not only around Reign but on the wings as well.

The lightning bolt was also covered up by the wings before they closed and formed a white and black ball. Lightning continued striking before it started coiling around the wings and hiding them completely. One could only see a ball of lightning where Reign was now.

Wolf was also covered by flames, his golden flames were tainted by a touch of purple as they formed a giant sword that encompassed him.

Shadow on the other hand was hidden in what looked like a black hole.

Beast was completely covered in a green hue, as were his beasts.

Tank looked like a bronze statue that was sitting down and not moving an inch.

Laura on the other hand had turned completely demonic and the figure above her looked down on her, one would be able to see a slight smile on what seemed to be the head of the demon above Laura.

All six of them were going through an evolution, and each one of them was experiencing a similar thing as they all felt incredibly comfortable and at ease.

Their talents were high and they wouldn\'t come across any troubles before reaching at least Tier V, at least that was what Aethion had concurred.

He never came across any trouble even when he went through the 7th evolution, but he also took much longer to reach each tier and made sure he was fully prepared for each evolution as well.

Compared to Reign and the others who wouldn\'t wait long before attempting an evolution, he was in a much better situation.

Time passed and their auras were becoming more and more powerful. There was no difference from the outside, but inside each of them, their bodies were once again changing.

Their bones were becoming stronger, their blood was getting purified, and their skin itself was being peeled off and replaced by a new one.

After about 2 hours had passed, the auras from each one of them had become incredibly powerful and the inhabitants of the town and the surrounding areas could all sense them.

Monsters lay on the ground and trembled in fear, simply waiting for whatever powerful beings were here to claim their lives while the players inside the territory were all sitting down or laying on the bed as it was hard for them to do anything when faced with such pressure.

Finally, the pressure that was coming from Reign and the others disappeared. The flames around Wolf slowly started dying down, and the shadows around Shadow started disappearing as the black hole became smaller and smaller.

The green hue around Beast and the monsters started fading away, the bronze skin of Tank started turning normal again and Laura\'s body started turning back to a human\'s once again.

As for Reign, the lightning that was coiling around his wings started disappearing as well.

It was time for them to come out.
