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

Gloria stood quietly in front of the game pod. Before her, a massive high-precision instrument composed of dozens of LCD screens was continuously operating.

As the goddess approached the instrument and sat down, it seemed to react, raising a camera.

Accompanied by a series of beeping scan prompts, points of light gradually lit up on the large screen, coalescing into a figure that looked almost identical to Gloria but dressed in a secretary outfit.

"Welcome back, Sequence Zero Thirteen."

"Confirming your permissions... Permissions confirmed."

"Current positions in the Revival Council: President - vacant, Vice President - vacant, Elite Members - vacant, Ordinary Members remaining: Zero Thirteen, Gloria."

"Your current permissions are the highest: Ms. Gloria."

"AI Dark Moon, at your service."

As the notification finished, Gloria looked at the AI, which resembled her in appearance, with a complex expression.

"Am I the only one left?"

"The last time I logged out, two hundred years ago, there was still an old demigod clinging to life."

The goddess couldn't help but hold her face, her expression a mix of nostalgia and pain.

"Only two hundred years away from reality, and all the painstaking plans have failed."

AI Dark Moon took the initiative to comfort her: "Ms. Gloria, based on the initial model calculations, your probability of obtaining the Newborn Sprout of Creation was less than 3%."

"Moreover, even if you exhaust your divine power, you can only purify the Forbidden Poison in the former Americas region of Earth. Localized cleaning holds little significance. The influence of [Data Deletion] will quickly engulf the purified area once more."

When mentioning a certain term, the AI's figure flickered, emitting a burst of meaningless static.

Gloria was momentarily disheartened but quickly regained her usual demeanor.

"Help me search for information on these two players."

As she spoke, she used her Law Power to transmit and integrate part of her memory into the machine before her.

The AI responded swiftly.

"Searching for players suspected to use the aliases 'David' and 'Constantine.'"

The secretary-outfitted "Gloria" smiled, energetically displaying a virtual image of herself searching through a bookshelf.

After about ten seconds, the AI popped up a message.

"Player Constantine, related information search failed. The only predicted related entry is the second query target 'David.'"

"These two have some connection?"

Gloria was slightly taken aback.

However, before she could be pleased about this valuable piece of information, the AI responded again.

"Related data for 'David' search failed, database damaged."

"The AI system reminds you that related data for the Earth human player David may have been destroyed. The scope of this data destruction includes lower-level bases from number seventy thousand to sixty thousand and their affiliated intermediate and advanced bases."

"Destroyed?" The smile on Gloria's face froze.

The Revival Council's AI had access to all of Earth's human race databases. However, due to the council's current hostile status with the human race on Earth, the AI couldn't automatically download the databases to prevent frequent access from alerting the human race that the Revival Council still retained some permissions.

Gloria hadn't anticipated that the Revival Council's inability to store backup data would result in the complete failure of her plan to gather information on "David."

The goddess felt a bit helpless, but in the next second, the AI reported some extremely surprising news.

"Based on the surveillance data from the aforementioned settlement, I discovered a large area where all Forbidden Poison had been cleared. According to the energy wave frequency predictions and your desired skill, [Purification Ripple], there was a 98.7% match."

What??

Gloria's eyes widened in disbelief. She had never imagined such a scenario.

Someone had released 'Purification Ripple'??

Her first reaction was to wonder if the deity that appeared at the end of the Netherworld instance was also from the human race on Earth.

Did that deity absorb the Newborn Sprout of Creation and log off to try to purify the world??

But soon, Gloria realized that this was impossible!

If it were truly a deity-level being, even a mere attempt would have purified an area far larger than what the AI had indicated.

The most reasonable possibility was that someone had learned this special skill through other means!

Coupled with the mysterious destruction of information about "David." Gloria, leveraging her divine authority over the moon and its predictive capabilities in mysticism, had an inexplicable premonition.

The player who obtained 'Purification Ripple' must be connected to the destruction of the information!

"Although I might not have a chance to revive our homeland myself, it seems there's new hope." Gloria's expression showed a hint of joy.

She pondered for a few seconds, then said to the AI, "Bring out that item."

"Understood!" The secretary-outfitted "Gloria" playfully saluted, and then a steel panel in the rectangular instrument opened.

A long casket was lifted out.

Gloria took the casket, and divine power surged through her body. After a long while, a trickle of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth, but her eyes inexplicably displayed a map-like image.

"Found it!"

"As long as this casket is placed at 112 degrees east longitude and 62.3 degrees north latitude, the player who obtained 'Purification Ripple' will definitely encounter it!"

Gloria initially intended to foresee the player themselves, but it was as if she had seen something terrifying, causing her to cough up blood.

Subsequently, the goddess quickly forgot the memory of being injured, as if she had only ever intended to use divination to send out the casket.

Gloria swiftly shut down the remote instrument and, using her divine power, teleported to an underground room in milliseconds. This location corresponded to the longitude and latitude coordinates she had predicted.

This place was also a storage base for game pods, with about a hundred thousand players logging into Transcendence from here.

Gloria quickly approached an unremarkable game pod and placed the casket inside...

Through the reflection of the glass, she could see the steel letters engraved on the casket: "Manufactured on 2024.3.23."

If Sterl were there, he would probably be dumbfounded because he knew the person lying in that game pod—Linna!

Moreover, the date on the steel casket matched the calendar from before he transmigrated!

...

Of course, Sterl knew nothing about this at the moment.

Destroying the data and rescuing Teresa had taken him a day in total. With the extra evolution points he had, he first tried to evolve the "Essence of the Moon" he had exchanged from the Dark Moon Alliance store.

The final product left Sterl very satisfied.

[Soul of the Moon]

[Type: Restoration Item]

[Effect: Upon use, increases mental power by 30 points and raises energy limit by 200% (and restores it to full).]

[Note: The energy limit increase effect can stack once at most.]

"Finally! I've resolved a major issue." Sterl said with evident joy in his voice.

He had always struggled with a severe lack of mana. After acquiring Law Power, his mana bar wasn't even sufficient to cast a single ultimate skill.

But with the boost from the Soul of the Moon, consuming just one would instantly restore Sterl to full capacity and triple his mana! It would be enough to sustain any major battle.

Even if Sterl were to be a bit extravagant and evolve two Souls of the Moon, it would result in the energy capacity being fully restored to three times the limit the first time, and then fully restored to five times the limit the second time!!

Even if he poured out Law Power like crazy, it would... barely be enough.

Sterl nodded. He decided to evolve a few of these items and keep them on hand as backup energy sources, not to be used lightly.

After all, each use cost 300 Dark Moon Alliance contribution points plus an opportunity to add points, which he was very reluctant to spend.

Next, as usual, Sterl went into seclusion.

He stored the Soul of the Moon in his small world—after his adventures in the real world, he found it much more efficient to manipulate items through the small world.

Now, Sterl took out two portions of the Water of the Netherworld and poured them into a bath. He then undressed and stepped in, sitting cross-legged to meditate and begin digesting the massive amount of experience points within him.

In just a few seconds, he officially broke through to level 60, enabling him to trigger the class change quest. However, as he listened to the incessant prompts in his ear—

[You have reached level 60.]

[Do you want to start the second class quest? Yes/No]

He chose to ignore it, letting the essence of the Water of the Netherworld flow into his body and continuously transform it. Just as Sterl expected—

A dual-choice menu appeared before his eyes.

[You are absorbing the mysterious item: Water of the Netherworld.]

[You may choose any two effects from the following three.]

[Effect: Omitted]

As expected, Sterl discovered that he could simultaneously choose to acquire a Law Power and increase his level cap.

He selected both options.

Immediately, a prompt appeared before Sterl—

[Absorbing mysterious item, please remain calm... ]

He felt his entire body being immersed in the liquid filled with both vitality and coldness. Every fiber of his being was being transformed, and it seemed as if the chains and limitations engraved on him by the Transcendence system were gradually breaking down!

This gave Sterl an immense feeling of liberation, symbolizing that his level cap was about to break through!

However, what puzzled him was that this sensation of chains breaking felt oddly familiar...

It was just like when he absorbed the white mist emanating from monsters' deaths in reality!
