Chapter 211: Awakening Completed
Chapter 211: Awakening Completed
The Hanged Man and the Magician offered the World no respite whatsoever.
The two planners of the apocalypse game launched a coordinated assault against the World. Although the World possessed strength that was not inferior to that of the apocalypse game planners,
the relentless attack left little room for defense.
However, the World could only contend with a single planner of the apocalypse game at a time.
When faced with two planners simultaneously, the World found itself in a predicament of utter confusion and desperation.
At that moment, the class change goddess Janna was unable to offer any assistance to the World.
She was already preoccupied, ensnared by the High-Dimensional Data summoned by the White Tower and the virtual Sun conjured by The Person in the Mirror.
The situation for both the World and the class change goddess Janna grew increasingly dire.
The two of them instinctively turned their gazes toward Jeremy.
"Our only hope now rests on Jeremy completing his awakening as swiftly as possible. We can no longer hold on for much longer, if Jeremy fails to achieve his awakening, this operation will end in utter failure."
The World was filled with profound anxiety.
He even began to waver, questioning whether he should have placed such unwavering faith in Jeremy.
At this moment, Jeremy was absorbing the last remnants of power from the awakening gemstone into his body.
His awakening ritual had, in fact, been wholly completed, however, he still required a bit more time to stabilize his condition.
The moment the final remnants of power from the awakening gemstone surged into Jeremy's body, he completed his awakening. Simultaneously, Jeremy's identity panel underwent a rapid and thorough update.
[Name]: Jeremy
[Level]: lv50
[Occupation]: Blasphemer
[Talent]: The King of Time and Space
[Titles]: Pioneer, Global First Kill, Light Chaser, Guardian of Time and Space
[Abilities]: The Eye of Omniscience

Having completed his awakening, Jeremy not only experienced a substantial enhancement in his attributes but also acquired a new title: Guardian of Time and Space.
The title of Guardian of Time and Space allows Jeremy to receive additional benefits when utilizing time and space skills.
Moreover, when confronted by monsters capable of distorting time and space, Jeremy is able to detect them more swiftly.
In addition to the data previously displayed on his identity panel, there now exists an extra entry: Divinity.
As the term suggests, Divinity refers to the power possessed by a deity.
When the divinity is relatively weak, the deity's power that can be obtained is exceedingly feeble.
However, when the divinity is sufficiently strong, the possessed deity's power can elevate a person to the status of a true deity.
At present, the divinity power that Jeremy possesses only allows him to carry the title of Deity Embryo.
This implies that while Jeremy is still quite distant from becoming a deity, he has already been recognized as a human capable of attaining such a status.
With the emergence of the identity panel, Jeremy felt that his consciousness had been fully restored.
He was now not only able to observe the surrounding battles but could also keenly discern the conditions of everyone involved in the fight.
The situation for class change goddess Janna and the World had become exceedingly dire.
A multitude of High-Dimensional Data had ensnared class change goddess Janna, while the virtual Sun summoned by The Person in the Mirror seized this opportunity to launch a relentless assault against her.
Class change goddess Janna had already sustained severe injuries and could not endure for much longer.
If Jeremy wished to prevent class change goddess Janna from being killed by the enemy, he would have to take action immediately.
On the other hand, the circumstances surrounding the World were somewhat better than those of class change goddess Janna.
Although the opponents faced by the World are indeed stronger than those confronting class change goddess Janna, the World itself is inherently more adept at combat than class change goddess Janna.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Jeremy resolved to first repel the High-Dimensional Data summoned by the White Tower, as well as the virtual Sun conjured by The Person in the Mirror.
With this decision made, Jeremy immediately employed the Spatial Sealing skill.
Empowered by the talent of The King of Time and Space and the title of Guardian of Time and Space, the Spatial Sealing skill Jeremy utilized this time was extraordinarily potent.
A violent wave of spatial fluctuation rapidly radiated from Jeremy's position, expanding outward in all directions.
Countless High-Dimensional Data were imprisoned within the spatial realm uniquely belonging to Jeremy, while the virtual Sun summoned by The Person in the Mirror also collapsed upon itself due to the Spatial Sealing.
The Spatial Sealing severed the connection between The Person in the Mirror and the virtual Sun, lacking the power provided by The Person in the Mirror, the virtual Sun was destined to disintegrate.
Jeremy's sudden intervention astonished everyone present.
Although class change goddess Janna and the World had been eagerly anticipating Jeremy's prompt completion of his awakening, they had not expected the awakening ceremony to occur at such an astonishing speed.
The Hanged Man and the Magician were even more astounded.
"How is this possible?! How can a mere mortal complete the awakening ceremony so swiftly?! Normally, the awakening ceremony should last at least an hour, shouldn't it?!"
The Magician exclaimed loudly, his gaze fixed in disbelief upon Jeremy.
The Hanged Man maintained his previous shadowy demeanor, refraining from speaking, yet he vigilantly observed Jeremy's movements.
The World had originally intended to seize this opportunity to mock the Magician, but given the current dire circumstances, he lacked even the strength to utter a taunt.
"A mere mortal would certainly be incapable of completing the awakening ceremony this quickly!" Jeremy's voice resonated from the light left behind by the awakening gemstone.
"However, I am no mere mortal, you should now refer to me as Deity Embryo. I have already acquired sufficiently potent divine power."
Jeremy's declaration left everyone present in a state of renewed shock.
Even the World turned to cast a deep glance in Jeremy's direction.
He could scarcely believe that Jeremy had managed to attain such formidable divine power at this particular juncture.
While the title of Deity Embryo does not yet denote a true deity, it still requires the accumulation of sufficiently powerful divine energy to attain.
The expressions on the faces of The Hanged Man and the Magician grew increasingly grim.
For they suddenly realized that Jeremy posed an exceptionally significant threat to them.
Although class change goddess Janna was not as astonished as the others, she found herself beginning to admire Jeremy's innate talent.
While she had long been aware that Jeremy could sense divine power, the speed at which he accumulated this divine energy exceeded her expectations.
"What if you have become a Deity Embryo? What does that change? You don't truly believe you can defeat two architects of the Apocalypse Game simultaneously, do you?"
Though the Magician felt a flicker of trepidation within, he maintained a facade of defiance.
He raised his staff and waved it toward Jeremy, channeling his tumultuous energy.
In an instant, a shockwave capable of distorting any force surged rapidly toward Jeremy.
At that moment, Jeremy stepped forth from the light left behind by the awakening gemstone.
As he faced the Magician's assault, his expression remained utterly unchanged.
He simply raised his right hand with calm composure and snapped his fingers.
The moment the sound resonated, the space surrounding Jeremy began to warp dramatically.
Once the Magician's attack entered the warped space, it swiftly veered off course. Ultimately, it failed to strike Jeremy successfully.
"It seems you have chosen the talent of The King of Time and Space!" the Magician remarked, his tone still composed despite witnessing his attack being thwarted.
Yet inwardly, the Magician had already resolved to retreat.
Although he wielded formidable power as an architect of the Apocalypse Game, he was hindered by the seals that class change goddess Janna had established within her domain.
Thus, neither the Magician nor The Hanged Man could unleash their full strength in this space.
"Now that you have successfully awakened, I see no reason to continue wasting time here with you. However, I must caution you: possessing divine power does not guarantee that you can defeat us!"
Before departing, the Magician issued this threat to Jeremy, then dissolved into a flurry of bubbles, vanishing from sight.
The Hanged Man, too, merged with a nearby shadow, swiftly exiting the realm of class change goddess Janna.
With the departure of the Apocalypse Game architects, the World finally found himself unable to sustain himself any longer, collapsing onto the ground.
Class change goddess Janna, no longer able to maintain her composure, hurried back to her divine throne, utilizing its power to heal her wounds.
Jeremy quickly approached the World's side.
With genuine concern, he inquired, "What can I do to assist you right now?"
The World shook his head.
"There is nothing you can do to aid me, nor do I require your assistance. What you need to focus on now is mastering the talent of The King of Time and Space as swiftly as possible.
While you have completed your awakening, it does not mean you are invincible. If I am not mistaken, the architects of the Apocalypse Game will surely escalate its difficulty!"
