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

Sterl closed the skill menu, still unable to contain his excitement.

Aside from [Consume], there were only a few things left that he had enhanced through point allocation.

First, he had evolved six Fate Tokens. With the boost from [Consume], that equated to six legendary abilities or Law Powers!

As for why it wasn't Divine Power or divine authority, Sterl knew he was still far from being able to hunt down gods.

The realm of the divine can only be breached by another god!

In addition to this, there was the random Legendary Crystal Sterl had obtained earlier. After two point allocations and one forced point allocation, it had transformed into a special item.

[Chaos Cube]

[Type: Special]

[Description: A bizarre crystal formed by the fusion of countless legendary powers, undergoing a strange qualitative change under special energy, giving birth to something that originally did not exist in the world.]

[Effect: You can use any two skills, equipment, legendary abilities, or Law Powers and fuse them within the Chaos Cube.

There is a high probability of fusing resources of equal quality to the fused items, a low probability of obtaining resources of higher quality, and an extremely low probability of creating superior resources that combine the advantages of both fused items and undergo qualitative transformation.]

In simple terms, it's a gambling tool.

Its effect is a two-into-one fusion.

But there's a high probability of losing out, turning two items of the same quality into one item of the same quality, resulting in a net loss.

Only a small chance will yield higher-quality resources, and it might not even be profitable.

Sterl did have a lot of mediocre skills and equipment, but if the quality only slightly improved, he might still not find them useful. In fact, the value of a slightly improved new skill or equipment might be less than the combined value of the two original items.

The Chaos Cube is only profitable if it triggers an extremely low probability qualitative transformation.

"So does that mean I have to use Fate Tokens again?"

"To ensure the fusion result?"

Sterl felt a bit frustrated. Before he ascended to godhood, he had no way to hunt down beings with Trade divine authority!

"Maybe I should try to infiltrate the Dark Moon Goddess's small group as a logistics officer?"

He entertained the idea, considering that this group had a good chance of hunting down gods with Trade divine authority. If Sterl could be nearby when those gods fell, he could catalyze the purple gold coins and convert them into Fate Tokens...

After thinking for a while, Sterl still couldn't come up with a viable plan to infiltrate Gloria's group. Those gods didn't bring any logistics or followers when they acted.

In the end, Sterl could only sigh and dismiss his unrealistic thoughts. He opened the Sub-Profession panel and admired it for a while.

His Array Master Sub-Profession had also been enhanced through point allocation.

After forcibly evolving the authority heart, Sterl sensed an upgrade to his Array Master level—an amplification and perception of spatial power, roughly increasing by 30% per level.

With the nourishment of this additional spatial power, a new skill called [Spatial Severance (Gold)] appeared in his skill menu.

Sterl was delighted to discover that even if he did nothing, the enhancement in the authority heart's rank allowed him to automatically comprehend spatial-related legendaries upon reaching legendary status and spatial Laws upon becoming a demigod.

He had practically won the jackpot!

His profession talent had been boosted to SSS level as well:

[Array Mastery]

[Effect: You can forcibly master all arrays, ignoring learning conditions. When setting up arrays, you can ignore up to one major level requirement (e.g., a legendary can set up a demigod-level array, a demigod can set up a god-level array, etc.). Your proficiency gain speed for all arrays is increased by 100%, and the effects of all your arrays are increased by 50%.]

It's no exaggeration to say that this effect was game-changing.

Sterl didn't know how valuable the "can learn all arrays" bonus was due to his limited experience, but he could guess that if an SSS-level talent provided such a bonus, it meant that some arrays had extremely stringent learning requirements, impossible for ordinary people to meet!

The talent's "ignoring up to one major level requirement when setting up arrays" was self-explanatory in its value.

Sterl knew that the differences between legendary and third class, demigod and legendary, and god and demigod were enormous!

The gap between these levels represented a massive leap in power.

Gods suppressed demigods far more than demigods suppressed legendaries, and demigods suppressed legendaries far more than legendaries suppressed third class.

But with this talent, Sterl could set up arrays one level above his own!

What did this mean?

Arrays had diverse functions, including offense, protection, and gathering the world's energy...

Sterl could fully enjoy the output, defense, and resource-gathering capabilities of a level higher than his own in advance. The only limitation was that he had to set up the arrays beforehand.

This would consume a lot of rare materials and time, but it was still a huge profit!

By the time he reached the demigod level, with the aid of arrays, he might even confront gods directly! Though killing a god would be difficult due to the immobility of arrays, it meant that Sterl could protect himself without worry!

In the Vastor continent and even in the Hall of Valor, gods with weak Divine Power stood at the top of the food chain.

Sterl had nothing to fear from these people, so what else was there to be afraid of?

"After becoming a demigod, I can start allocating points for Linna and Rayna!" he silently decided.

As for the last part of his talent, "increased array proficiency and enhanced array effects," it was a straightforward and powerful numerical boost.

Sterl would have a significant advantage over other Array Masters.

However, after boosting his Sub-Profession talent to SSS level, it seemed he couldn't enhance it further. There was no option for forced point allocation, which left Sterl somewhat disappointed.

Additionally, Sterl discovered that aside from his secondary authority heart and Sub-Profession talent, the arrays he had learned could also be enhanced through point allocation. But since he only knew some basic arrays at the moment, it didn't make sense to waste his points on them.

Previously, on his way back to the Hall of Valor, he had used all his extra point allocations on Fate Tokens.

With this, Sterl had wrapped up his gains from this period.

Almost simultaneously, he let out a satisfied sigh, his lower body slightly moving.

Beneath him, Sosia slowly raised her head, sharing a kiss with Sonis as they both savored Sterl's essence.

The scene was extremely alluring.

Seeing the two sisters about to pounce on him again, Sterl patted their heads.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Immediately, the sisters toned down their seductive demeanor and became extremely serious. "Yes, Master!" they said obediently.

Sterl couldn't help but feel a wave of satisfaction and comfort. The Nether Soul clan, trained specifically for servitude, truly lived up to their reputation!

"How did the tasks I assigned you go?" Sterl asked, lounging on the sofa.

Before leaving the Hall of Valor, he had given the sisters some assignments.

The primary task was to find ways to acquire guild materials and to maintain contact with the players Sterl had met during the Extreme Trials, keeping those relationships strong.

Lastly, they were to confirm the most convenient methods for resource exchange in the Hall of Valor.

The answers the sisters provided left Sterl quite pleased.

"Master, you asked us to contact those players and confirm if they were still willing to join our guild."

"Our inquiries went smoothly. They are still very willing to join your guild, even more enthusiastically than when we were in the settlement hall."

"Because the combat power you displayed against the Devourer of All Things was simply unbelievable. It was far beyond what a legendary should possess."

"Additionally, we've found the resource exchange locations you wanted us to look for."

"In the Hall of Valor, there's a building called the 'Assembly Hall.' It's where all members take on contribution tasks, and many people set up stalls in the hall to sell their task rewards. Over time, it has become the largest trading hub in the Hall of Valor."

"Regarding the guild materials you requested, we gathered some information. For basic materials, you can purchase them at the Assembly Hall. For high-level materials, you need to complete difficult tasks and exchange something called Valor Contribution Points."

"As for top-tier guild materials, our investigation revealed that three SSS-level guild materials have appeared in the Hall of Valor."

"One was acquired 500 years ago by a player who broke the Trial of the Brave scoring limit. Another was obtained by a deity in the Hall of Valor, though the conditions for this are unknown. The last one was a reward in the previous Valor Combatants tournament, which is said to be holding its second edition this year."

"Well done," Sterl nodded slightly, feeling quite pleased with the sisters' reliability.

Sterl analyzed the information he had gathered. The guild formation was still on track, with the only missing piece being the materials.

Regarding the materials he needed, Sterl naturally wanted the best since it directly impacted the buffs he could receive. He couldn't afford to be careless.

As for the Valor Combatants tournament, although it was said to be held this year, Sterl couldn't wait that long. He decided to challenge the Trial of the Brave to see if he could also break the scoring limit.

Regarding the Assembly Hall, he decided to check it out himself after completing the Trial of the Brave when taking on his monthly tasks.

With that, Sterl waved his hand.

Sosia and Sonis obediently left the room, leaving behind two enticing silhouettes.

Sterl then opened his panel.

[Participate in the Trial of the Brave? Yes/No]

[Note: This trial will provide enemies and difficulty corresponding to your current strength: second class. You need to kill as many enemies as possible to accumulate points.]
