Epic of Bee - Chapter 90
After finished up with Leah, we all went over to the group so I could start going through them. I was a bit stressed about all the names, but I had decided to give them all easy names that I could remember.
“Tacator, or Ryan now, I will get you to come up first. I don’t think that I need to know too much about what you can do. The leaders always get some kind of special counsel position, and I am hoping that you will be able to join me as a military adviser,” I explained to Ryan, Leader of the Raccoons, and he nodded in affirmation.

Ryan.
[Subject: Ryan]: Class option:
{Council Bee} Or {War Bee Tactician}
Bingo! Just what the doctor ordered! I made the selection without thinking, and in my haste and excitement, I flashed everyone. I cringed as I watched everyone rear back and throw their hands up to protect their eyes, but I was sure that the sunspots were already waxed on.
After the light cleared, everyone but Ryan and I were rubbing their eyes, and I decided to busy myself to dodge the complaints that I knew would come from Miasma. I activated my scanner and gave Ryan a quick once over.
The robe Ryan wore was attractive, and it had the standard yellow and dark Brown stripes that I loved so much. It also had angled hexagon-shaped shoulder plates with a significant spike poking up from each.

[Tactician] (Gene) Acquired!
Everything about this Class was perfect and exactly what the Hive needed, and now I was excited to go through the rest! Thoughts of Bee-ing stressed out over pick names had wholly abandoned me.
One other thing that I hadn’t really noticed is that all the Raccoons were getting bigger and more physically built. That must mean that the Beezli Strength Blessing didn’t take effect until after the Subject had an active Class; it was a minor point but worth noting.
“The next one is Greglin, and there is something special about the weapon that he uses. I watched him cut his arm with the sword, and the sword absorbed the blood and started to glow black and purple,” Leah explained from beside me as the next one stepped forward.
“I will call you Sam, also. When it is not your turn, or you are finished, please look away, so I don’t have to keep telling everyone each time,” I said as I activated the System, and Sam nodded to me with a smile.

Sam.
[Subject:Sam]: Class option:
{HexBlade} Or {Shadow Bee Blade Dancer}
Well, another no-brainer since I already a more than one Shadow type, and the HexBlade Sounded familiar, and I was sure that I had used it in a game before. There was something about needing a patron to us the Class, but I hoped that Sam wasn’t praying to Cthulhu.
I activated my scanner again after making the selection and waited for the light to clear. Once it did, Another Cultivator stood in front of me, but the solid black robe had purple flames on it.

[HexBlade] (Gene) Acquired!
Oof, that was a deadly class, and with the amount of blood then that the weapon took, the user would have to be very proficient with the weapon. Though Sam looked like he would do alright, I had to remember that even though they were getting new Classes, most of this was the same as what they had already been doing for most of their lives.
Next was a wiry-looking fellow with shifting eyes and constantly fidgeting hands. I looked the man over, and he was a bit smaller than the rest, and he didn’t have that; I’m edgy, and I wanna cut you, look.
No, I got more of a; I want to see the whole world burn and cook popcorn kind of guy vibe from him. Regardless of what I thought, in the end, the System would give me a choice, and I would have to pick, but so far, it has been pretty good.
“Okay, Jeff, you’re next!” I said, and Jeff got a big smile on his face.

Jeff
[Subject:Jeff]: Class option:
{Explosive Specialist} Or {MotarBee}
Oooo, these were good, but when I saw the first choice, I was stuck on it. Even though MortarBee sounded cool, I still had some questions about the explosives inside and outside the Predator’s robes.
I made the selection and waited for the light to clear, and after it did, Jeff was looking a lot different. It was now covered in belts covered in pouches and pockets, and there were some interesting other shapes on his belts, so I activated the scanner.
Here we go; let’s see what the Class Roulette gives me next!
