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

Chapter 196: Radiance-Level Profession: Harness the Stars

At this moment, Sterl was overwhelmed with joy as he looked at the endless stream of notifications before him.

[When you level up, all attributes increase by 4 points per level, and you receive 4 attribute points per level. The effect of all your attribute points is quadrupled.]

Seeing this, Sterl understood why he felt his body was somewhat out of control—the sheer number of attribute points gained was too high.

It was equivalent to a nearly 200-point increase in his base attributes all at once!

This wasn't like the burst state he achieved using Divine Descent or Life Ignite. These were his regular attributes in everyday life!

Next came—

[Your profession trait, Embodiment of the Stars, has been upgraded to Symbol of the Stars (while under the starlight, your injuries will heal at an extremely fast rate, and your energy and stamina will also partially recover. All attributes increase by 60 points).]

[Notice: Due to your current state (second class), your profession trait, Symbol of the Stars, cannot exhibit its full capabilities. This trait will further enhance when you advance to Legendary, Demigod, or God levels.]

[Your profession skill Ignition Flame has been upgraded to Gold quality.]

[Your profession skill Starlight Spray has been upgraded to Gold quality.]

[The effect of your created realm, Realm of the Stars, has been enhanced. While within this realm, the energy cost of all your abilities is reduced by 20%.]

[You are expected to gain skills at the following levels: Level 100 (highest tier Gold skill), Level 150 (an additional Legendary ability), Level 250 (highest tier Platinum skill).]

[You have obtained partial information and sensing of the Law Power: Stars. You are expected to acquire this Law Power at Level 250.]

[You have obtained partial information and sensing of the divine authority: Stars. You are expected to acquire this divine authority at Level 500.]

After reading all this information, Sterl couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

First and foremost, his profession trait now provided him with the much-needed energy and stamina recovery, which was a massive win!

Next, Ignition Flame and Starlight Spray were both promoted to Gold quality for free, and they were the highest tier 20 legend points Gold skills.

Moreover, the Realm of the Stars now included a reduction in energy consumption, which, when combined with his profession trait, significantly alleviated Sterl's mana consumption issues.

While this didn't completely solve the problem, it was only because the Legendary abilities and Law Power he used consumed too much energy, which was beyond what his current level could handle.

The new abilities from his profession advancement had already partially alleviated the immediate crisis, and in the future, when he ascended to Legendary and Demigod levels, Sterl's mana would become a tremendous advantage. Compared to other players, he would have the ability to fire endlessly!

Sterl was now invincible!

All he needed to do was level up.

The following notifications merely indicated that Sterl's future was bound to be bright.

Of course, it made sense. A Radiance-level profession, above the 3S-level professions, couldn't possibly allow a second-class player to fully harness its power.

Sterl was already set to gain a highest tier Gold skill upon reaching third class, an additional Legendary ability upon becoming Legendary, and a highest tier Platinum skill upon advancing to Demigod.

Meanwhile, at the Demigod level, Sterl would be granted the Law Power: Stars, and upon reaching Godhood, he would obtain the divine authority: Stars. Additionally, his profession traits would further enhance with each level increase!

Sterl was now driven by a single goal—to push forward, ensuring that his future combat prowess would render him unbeatable among his peers!

Upon ascending to Godhood, he would possess three divine authorities, allowing him to rapidly break through from weak Divine Power.

Of course, Sterl wasn't certain if Level 500 was the exact threshold for reaching Godhood. He was merely speculating based on the notifications.

At this moment, he slowly closed his panel, a surge of ambition and confidence rising in his eyes.

The recent attribute boosts, including the enhancements from his profession traits, amounted to an over 200-point increase in his base attributes. With various multipliers applied, this translated to nearly 600-700 points in all attributes!

Sterl now channeled the Flowing Water Law into a blade, its power significantly amplified while its energy consumption was reduced.

He ran some calculations and found that he could sustain the smooth combo of Shadow Stealth·Flowing Water Law·Shadow Stealth using regular energy potions...

This meant that Sterl's survivability and DPS had already surpassed the baseline needed to tackle the Devourer of All Things.

In the game [Transcendence], unlike the MMORPGs Sterl played before his transmigration, attributes truly enhanced the player's personal skills!

Given his high attributes, Sterl was confident he wouldn't make any errors in taking down the Devourer of All Things.

And so...

Sterl took out his Fate Token and placed it in his palm, casually tossing it into the air.

Confidence radiated from his eyes!

"I'm back, baby!"

...

Meanwhile, in the A1 area of the island.

A giant green barrier was slowly radiating energy, protecting over a hundred players within.

Though the barrier seemed thin, it undulated like water, easily neutralizing the onslaughts from the terrifying, massive black hole-like entity outside.

However, despite this...

The protected players still wore grim expressions!

Each time the water-like barrier absorbed an attack, some of its energy was siphoned off and assimilated by the monstrous entity.

Though the amount assimilated each time was small, it was a constant ebb and flow, not to mention the considerable energy the players had to sacrifice to maintain the barrier.

The result was a continuous drain of energy that ultimately benefited the boss, the Devourer of All Things.

"What do we do?"

"What do we do? We wait to die, that's what."

"You don't still think we have a chance, do you? Maybe if we had gathered everyone together from the start, we might've had a shot…"

"Too many people have been devoured now. Even if that monster spat out all the energy it's consumed, we wouldn't have enough people left to take it down."

...

Some players within the shield still harbored fighting spirit, while others were in utter despair, having given up hope.

But...

Despite their words of doom, the players continued to pour their energy into the shield, desperately trying to delay their inevitable demise.

"Our only hope now is whether Greg Millhauser can break through."

"Yeah, what other option do we have besides relying on him?"

People murmured amongst themselves, their eyes fixed on an elderly man with a head full of white hair, protected in the center by everyone else.

He was the owner of the barrier item.

Using this water-wave barrier was incredibly demanding. It required at least ten players to inject their energy into it at a specific frequency. A single error would cause the entire barrier to collapse.

It was only because the players present were exceptionally talented that they had managed to sustain the shield for so long.

"Rely on him..."

"We don't stand a chance of breaking through."

"Exactly, so what if he has a higher profession/talent tier? I don't believe he's that much stronger than me!"

"Yeah, I have three 20-legend point Gold skills too. Why shouldn't I be the one to get the breakthrough opportunity?"

...

Meanwhile, another group of players, although also doing their best to maintain the barrier, looked visibly disgruntled and unsatisfied.

In this current scenario, the players were simultaneously defending through the barrier and waiting for the strongest participant in this trial, the dual SS-tier talent and SS-tier profession holder, Greg Millhauser, to break through his limits!

The method involved using an item called the Stone of Legacy brought by a few players, which allowed the transfer of legend points between players.

However, legend points were incredibly precious, and no one would typically agree to hand theirs over to someone else.

And the Stone of Legacy, despite its name suggesting inheritance, was actually a plundering tool. The players who provided it openly admitted it was previously used to hunt down and steal legend points from other third-class players.

But now, for the sake of survival, all the players present had pooled together some legend points to give to Greg Millhauser.

After all, he held an SS-tier profession, and post-second class, his attribute boosts were equivalent to a 3S-tier profession. His only disadvantage lay in his profession traits and skills.

Combined with his dual SS-tier talents, Greg Millhauser's combat power was formidable!

It was he who had previously withstood several attacks from the Devourer of All Things, allowing the stronger survivors from various zones to converge in Area A1 and collectively maintain the shield.

Without Greg Millhauser, the players present might have already been annihilated.

For this reason, almost everyone recognized the immense strength of this dual SS-tier player!

Moreover, after the players understood the extreme trial's rules—

They confirmed that the boss's strength in this trial was calibrated based on Greg Millhauser!

He had to break through to have any chance of defeating the boss!

Otherwise, they would all perish!!

Thus, even those who had previously used the Stone of Legacy to kill and steal legend points offered up their items.

The rest of the players did their utmost to buy time.

Even the complaining genius players simply believed that their strength was on par and that they too could kill the Devourer of All Things after breaking through.

There was no real resentment about first providing resources to Greg Millhauser. Everyone agreed that, in terms of raw power, he was undoubtedly the strongest among the players!

Therefore, despite the increasingly terrifying aura emanating from the Devourer of All Things, a glimmer of hope remained in the players' eyes.

They believed that passing the trial was not an impossibility!
