Awakening?The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener

Chapter 141: The Hall of Valor

In other words, Gloria was putting on a show!

What? Is she actually using the same tactics as me?

Although Sterl internally complained, he also knew that, unlike his simple love for showing off, Gloria's approach was probably very common among the deities. Because as long as they were gods, there was a need to absorb the power of faith. Shortly after ascending to godhood, Sterl had already known that the power of faith could be refined into Divine Power.

For most gods, this was the primary source of accumulating Divine Power. Hence, they needed to rule territories and educate the masses, all to absorb faith power.

And how to efficiently absorb faith power? Naturally, it required displaying divine majesty and grandeur through various actions!

Unfortunately, refining faith power required "divine consciousness." something Sterl couldn't convert even after becoming a god.

Sterl's mind wandered, but his movements suddenly froze.

At this moment, the goddess, with a gentle smile, walked among the players. Coincidentally, she stopped right next to Faye and "David."

On Faye's side, Felicia, who had been cursing incessantly in her mind, suddenly went silent... and fell into a state of withdrawal.

She didn't dare move, absolutely didn't dare!

From her perspective, if Gloria saw her, she'd surely be killed on the spot.

Meanwhile, "David" wore an odd expression.

The goddess was kind, but she was standing a bit too close.

Sterl now found himself face-to-face with the extraordinarily beautiful and captivating goddess—Gloria.

She spoke, "Players, thank you for your contributions to the Alliance."

But Sterl's main body was pressing Rayna against the floor-to-ceiling window in his room. Her ample chest was pressed and deformed against the glass as Sterl violently thrust into her...

At the same time, Rayna's subtle fragrance and Gloria's similar aura filled Sterl's senses.

It made him momentarily dazed.

He couldn't tell whether he was thrusting into Rayna or... the goddess in front of him.

Thanks to the Divine Power shrouding him, Gloria couldn't detect the emotional fluctuations of Sterl's avatar.

The goddess continued to smile warmly, saying, "In addition to the Dark Moon Alliance contribution points you have earned, I am willing to recommend you to join the Hall of Valor."

The Hall of Valor? What's that?

All the players were confused, but that didn't stop them from showing excitement!

After all, any place that required the goddess's recommendation to enter must be extraordinary!

Only Felicia, in Faye's mind, looked shocked but still kept her head down, not daring to show any soul fluctuations...

"Thank you, Goddess!"

"We pledge our lives in your service!"

"Your grace is unforgettable."

The players clamored, many even kneeling on one knee to show their respect.

Gloria, with a gentle smile on her face, was actually unfazed inside.

She was merely trying to get David into the Hall. Sending all the players there was just a cover to mask her true target.

In reality, the slots for the Hall of Valor were extremely precious, and Gloria could recommend a maximum of 10 people at a time.

Thankfully, the Hall of Valor required many cannon fodder to train its members.

So, the Dark Moon Goddess could "recommend" the players in bulk. Out of these 200-plus people, only 10 would survive, but ten would definitely survive!

With David's strength, he would surely be among those ten.

"It's a pity that Constantine has disappeared."

"But given Constantine's strength, perhaps I don't need to worry too much..."

"He doesn't need to join the Hall of Valor to rise to prominence." Gloria pondered. She continued to stand serenely in place, with many players not daring to look at her directly, fearing they might taint the goddess's radiance.

Faye, of course, was stiff to avoid revealing the presence of her ancestor. Naturally, Sterl also bowed his head, following the crowd.

Meanwhile, on the other side, he was pressing Rayna beneath him, thrusting wildly, unable to see the girl's face, perfectly mirroring the current situation...

"Then, the agreement is set."

Gloria transformed into light and dissipated, leaving behind a floating piece of parchment before each player.

[Hall of Valor Invitation]

[Description: It is said that this facility was built by a supreme deity of immense DivinePower in preparation for the end of the world. He invited countless mighty warriors from the mortal world to engage in nights of revelry and combat, aiming to train the most elite fighters.

However, with the fall of that deity, the Hall of Valor was sealed for countless years until a group of new gods reopened it to jointly cultivate warriors to return home.]

[Effect: Upon using the invitation, you will be taken aboard a rainbow ship from the void, transporting you to the Hall of Valor to participate in the entrance examination.]

[Usage Restriction: Must have completed the second class]

As a deity, Gloria naturally couldn't waste too much time with mortals. After she left, the players were elated!

"A faction formed by a group of gods?? Holy shit!"

"Does that mean we'll have unlimited hidden quests and resources if we join?"

"We're rich! This time we're really rich! Goddess, I will praise your name for eternity."

The players were overjoyed. Being second class, they understood the significance of joining a powerful faction. For instance, Spike's incredible strength came from joining the Principality of Morrow and achieving an S-rank profession, despite only having an S-grade talent. He also possessed numerous precious items, making his combat power far exceed others at his level.

Joining a faction co-founded by a group of gods wasn't just a step up—it was a leap to ascension!

At this moment, even Faye was excited, with Felicia jumping up and down in her consciousness.

"Gloria has gone mad! She failed to join the Hall of Valor herself back then."

"And now she's willing to recommend you all!"

"You must join!"

But the demigoddess's soul quickly calmed down. "Wait, Gloria claimed she only had weak Divine Power. How can she recommend so many people at once??"

"Faye, be cautious."

"Stick with David. I have a feeling he has never used his full strength. Together, you should be able to pass the entrance examination mentioned in the invitation."

Faye nodded in confusion, hearing only—

"Blah blah... stay with David... blah blah."

"Yes, ancestor!" Faye replied.

Felicia looked pleased.

As for Sterl, he was also pleasantly surprised. The Power of the Moon inherently had divination abilities.

After ascending to godhood, he had developed a certain instinct for manipulating Divine Power. It wasn't something he could actively control. Rather, it felt like muscle memory. He could clearly sense that Gloria's mention of the Hall of Valor was filled with genuine goodwill.

Of course, Sterl didn't realize that this goodwill might be directed solely at him.

All he knew was that by joining this new faction, he would have more opportunities to acquire resources!

"Mr. David, should we head out together?" Faye asked, blushing and stammering a bit. It was evident that making such an invitation was quite challenging for her.

Sterl hesitated slightly but then nodded. After changing his profession, he would have an open slot for his second primary star...

"No problem, but I still have some things to take care of. How about we set a time?"

Faye thought for a moment, seeing the other players eagerly preparing to head to the Hall of Valor. Feeling the time was tight, she hesitated and then suggested, "One week later?"

"Alright! One week later, we'll meet in the capital of the Divine Mountain Empire." Sterl agreed. The Divine Mountain Empire had a close relationship with the Earthlings, and there was a teleportation array leading directly to the capital in their advanced base.

As he said this, he suddenly remembered that he had neglected the task of acquiring an A-grade arcane skill for the Divine Mountain Empire, having been entirely focused on the Waters of the Netherworld.

Sterl felt a bit regretful. He had missed out on another reward!

However, looking at his task panel, he realized that his remaining main and hidden quests involving the Divine Mountain Empire would likely take some time to progress. The tasks were primarily centered around a future struggle for the throne.

Sterl figured he could first go to the Hall of Valor and, with his enhanced strength, quickly complete his main and hidden quests!

While he analyzed this, the remaining 200-plus players, having built some camaraderie, began adding each other as friends.

They were all top-tier players who had survived dire situations, with legendary status. In the future, they were sure to soar to great heights, and forming connections now could create a loose yet powerful alliance.

Faye initially wanted to stay out of it, but the roaring voice of her ancestor in her mind forced her to add friends.

As a clone, Sterl didn't have this functionality. After bidding farewell to Faye, he used Bloody Rush to leave. He then found a spot to dissolve his clone, and a beam of milky white light flew towards the direction of the Divine Mountain Empire...

...

Meanwhile, back at Sterl's main body.

In the bedroom, among the three entangled figures, two beautiful girls were sound asleep. Sterl suddenly opened his eyes and immediately teleported outside the room.

He first made a trip to the base. This time, upon returning, he finally completed the [Flame Trick] task he had received when his golden finger first awakened.

Boom!!

Flames radiated starlight, burning brightly!

Sterl smiled at the NPC, "How do you like it?"

For the "teacher" who had given him his first big break, Sterl remained courteous.

Without magical skills, he couldn't have allocated points to develop area-of-effect skills to farm monsters back then!
