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

44  Hidden Mission, Title [The Slaughterer]

William felt Sterl posed no threat.

Other players came forward with congratulations: "A Brilliant Star-level talent? Sterl, your future is boundless!"

"Congratulations!"

…

They also took the opportunity to give Sterl a rundown.

In the Spark Program, the potential of the selected talents is divided into 5 tiers.

The 5th tier is the lowest, the 1st tier the highest, with the tiers named from bottom to top as [Stellar Glow], [Satellite], [Brilliant Star], [Planet], and [Constellation].

As a Brilliant Star, the third-tier talent, there are only about five thousand such individuals among Earth's nearly ten billion population, making them extremely rare!

William then began to outline the privileges of being a Brilliant Star level: "I see you've already completed your class change. So the first reward, a trigger scheme for a D-class or higher job change mission, won't apply to you."

"However, it can be converted into a compensation of 5 million credit points."

"Your rewards for joining the Spark Program include three items: fifty silver coins or fifty million credit points."

"A level 20 piece of equipment."

"A white-quality skill book."

"Additionally, as a Brilliant Star talent, you can purchase ten stamina and energy recovery potions each month at cost price from any mid-level base."

"And if you want to join a mid-level or high-level base, you can directly participate in the assessment without waiting for eligibility review. After passing the selection, you can bring up to three family members to join the new base with you."

After listing these details, William returned to a cold demeanor, unwilling to engage further with Sterl.

Teresa's expression changed, ready to burst out, but then she caught a signal from Sterl in the corner of her eye and obediently stayed put.

"Thank you, sir. I'll take the fifty silver coins." Sterl said offhandedly. He felt the rewards for joining the Spark Program were rather meager.

He had just defeated a boss and earned ten gold coins.

Although theoretically, that required the cooperation of over a dozen level 20 players to challenge and then divide the loot.

But now, fifty silver coins?

Sterl was unimpressed, and the level 20 equipment and white-quality skill book were even less significant to him.

The equipment was unlikely to be anything special, probably just iron-grade.

Incidentally, the gear like the Shadow Curved Blade that Sterl had acquired before could evolve with added points. But considering how quickly equipment was replaced, he had prioritized other enhancements.

After all, Sterl's daily evolution point was far from enough, leaving little room for low-level equipment to enjoy.

As for the white-quality skill, Sterl couldn't be bothered to learn it. Even if he could enhance it with evolution points, it was inherently insufficient and not worth his time. After all, to truly unleash the power of a skill, one had to use it repeatedly to increase proficiency. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

William nodded, "These items will be delivered to your base within ten days."

Following this, the "big shot" overseeing the Spark Program was reluctant to speak more with Sterl.

But the players from the mid-level base were still quite enthusiastic about introducing him to the benefits of joining the Spark Program—

The energy and stamina recovery potions mentioned by William are great stuff, which were developed by an S-class professional among the human race on Earth. These potions can restore 10% of one's stamina or energy within 10 seconds and are effective for players below the third advancement.

They are a specialty of the human race on Earth. Many other races are willing to purchase them at a high price.

Players who join the Spark Program can buy these potions at the cost price of 5 silver coins each, whereas others may need to pay 20 to 30 silver coins for one. The price is even higher for non-human races.

These potions are so coveted that even high-level players, close to the third class, are willing to spend a significant amount of their wealth to stock up on them.

And as William mentioned, joining the assessment of intermediate and advanced bases,

Players at intermediate bases strongly recommend that after Sterl's strength improves, they try to challenge him.

The assessments are conducted in the form of selection battles, which are organized whenever a sufficient number of applicants have accumulated.

The top three players in the selection battle can move to live in a high-level or mid-level base.

The facilities at these two bases are much better, and in the regions where the bases are located, the number of NPCs, the amount of quests, and the richness of wild monsters are also far superior to those of lower-level bases.

Moreover, players who perform well in the promotions for the high-level base can receive awards from the human race on Earth. In short, participating in the selection battles is all gain and no loss. Ordinary people wishing to apply need to pay a significant registration fee and complete tasks to earn a spot, but players from the Spark Program can apply directly.

Additionally, after enrolling in the Spark Program, based on their own levels of potential.

Players can also look up how to trigger certain quests, pay to enter highly efficient leveling areas governed by the human race of Earth, and find out how to obtain the necessary items and equipment.

In essence, while the tangible rewards might not be abundant, as the Earth group is also strapped for resources, the intangible assistance provided is substantial.

After hearing all this, Sterl was contemplative.

He felt that joining the Spark Program was indeed a good idea. With his ability to add points, he could completely use the Spark Program's information system to select and acquire powerful skills and equipment post-evolution.

As for joining the mid-level or high-level bases, this was also quite tempting for him. If the area outside the base was rich in resources, allowing easy access to rewarding quests and high-level monsters, it could save a lot of time and help him grow stronger faster.

What's more important is that the conditions at the intermediate and advanced bases are better, and the security is stronger. Sterl really wants Linna and Rayna to join them.

It's worth noting that the bases of the human race on Earth are not absolutely safe.

In the game [Transcendence], periodic events known as [Monster Sieges] occur, during which many bases under the humans have been breached, leading to heavy casualties among players and civilians.

Sterl, whose strength was rapidly increasing, could ignore such threats. However, his two family members remained his Achilles' heel...

After the briefing, Sterl gave a slight bow to the players from the mid-level base, indicating his understanding and appreciation for their explanation. He then quickly became friendly and engaged in pleasant conversations with the group of players.

William, seeing that Sterl didn't continue to pester Teresa, merely sneered inwardly, thinking that the young man knew his place. After all, a person of William's stature could easily crush him with just a breath.

He then eagerly approached Teresa. But the female player responded with minimal interest, clearly uninterested in engaging in conversation with William.

However, the more dismissive she was, the more enthusiastic William became.

This only served to dissipate any annoyance Sterl might have felt towards the examiner from the Spark Program, even leading him to feel a bit of sympathy for him.

Sterl's training nearly caused Teresa's physical and mental breakdown. Even when Sterl was slightly displeased, he would make her slap her own face.

But now, William is almost on his knees, groveling...

Such a bootlicker...

Sterl couldn't help but shake his head in disbelief.

...

Subsequently, although Teresa was very eager to personally take Sterl back to the base, she knew she couldn't expose their relationship. So she used social niceties to refuse others and left alone.

Sterl, on the other hand, used a teleportation circle to return to the low-level base number 71392. Upon arrival, he immediately received a private message from Teresa.

Teresa had initially offered it as a bargaining chip merely for survival. Now she meekly suggested that Sterl need not waste his time pursuing such a title.

22:22

"I'm sorry! Master! I could only stand by and watch."

"I was wrong! Please, punish me."

Reading the message, Sterl could almost picture Teresa's anxious expression.

"We'll settle this the next time we meet. I'll make sure you're properly disciplined." he replied nonchalantly before moving on to more serious matters.

Teresa answered his questions about the hidden quest and the title.

She had accumulated some contribution points in the sequence base, enough to exchange for an item that would trigger a hidden quest. But it is highly likely that this hidden task is not an exclusive task

Teresa would have to complete it alongside other players emerging from the sequence bases. She planned to pretend to invite Sterl to participate as a way of repaying him for his "kindness."

Since they had to wait for other players, the hidden quest wouldn't start immediately.

As for the title, Teresa was somewhat embarrassed. She presented a title that her ancestors had previously achieved

The title she mentioned was [Slayer]. The requirement for the title was to continuously kill enemies for 24 hours without a break (with a maximum interval of 5 seconds between kills).

This meant that to earn the title, a player would have to forsake all rest, find a spot with constant monster spawns, and kill for a full 24 hours.

It was no easy feat.

And the title's benefit was to ignore 5% of an opponent's defense during attacks.

Teresa had initially offered it as a bargaining chip merely for survival. Now she meekly suggested that Sterl need not waste his time pursuing such a title.

Teresa promised to quickly accumulate more contribution points in the sequence base to exchange for more practical title acquisition plans...
