Chapter 36 The Eye of the Stars - Reward from a Dimensional Visitor
This section made Sterl pause in surprise...
He had never heard of something called occupational traits before!
He could only guess that perhaps it was a characteristic of professions of at least B-level or above?
After all, Sterl was only familiar with the circumstances of C-level professions.
As for the trait of the Star Child itself, it was actually quite powerful, enhancing all attributes by 20 points under the illumination of the stars... This was equivalent to a boost of about seven levels after Sterl's class change.
And the total speed of injury recovery was quadrupled. Although it wasn't much of an advantage in combat, the condition of being under the stars' glow was easy to meet, generally requiring only the environment to be at night.
Thus, Sterl's survival in the wilderness would be extremely favorable.
Every night, he could quickly recover from the hidden injuries sustained during the day's battles.
If he could acquire some skills to heal injuries in the future, the accelerated recovery effect of being a Star Child would become even stronger!
As for the two new skills Sterl acquired, one was a blue-quality skill transformed from the flame storm - "Phosphorus Fire".
It's worth noting that blue-quality skills are usually only learnable by players above level sixty-one... The power of such skills is self-evident!
Moreover, the special effects attached to Phosphorus Fire were also exceptionally powerful.
[Phosphorus Fire: Unleashes flames descended from the planet Phosphorus, attacking in three forms:
Storm Form, adding absorption and binding effects.
Impact Form, increasing the maximum attack range and armor-piercing effects.
Falling Star Form, consumes double energy, invokes the power of Phosphorus, causing double damage, doubling the kill range, and adding armor-piercing and binding effects. This form requires the condition of being under the stars' glow.]
The first two forms were reflections of Sterl's research outcomes on the flame storm, offering versatile output methods, both close and far, with control and defense reduction, extremely practical!
The last form, under the stars' glow, maximized the output capability and functionality of this move!
In Sterl's view, the Falling Star Form of Phosphorus Fire could perhaps be comparable to the legendary purple-quality moves!
The reason for "perhaps" is because Sterl, this "newbie", had no idea what a purple-quality move was really like...
Another skill, [Star Blade], though only of green quality, was quite extraordinary as the starting point of the master of stars skill tree.
[Star Blade: Each time the player's strength reaches a major milestone, the quality of this skill increases by one grade.
Upon activation, it condenses the power of the stars to create weapons of any shape.
The lethality of the weapon is determined by the player's own attributes—
Vitality enhances the weapon's durability, strength its sharpness, agility its additional attack speed, and spirit its additional damage.
Under the stars' glow, it can consume double energy to double the enhancement of any of the four aforementioned attributes, and Star Blade provides an effect of adding 10 points to all attributes.]
After reading through, Sterl finally understood the effect of this Star Blade...
In short, the stronger the player, the more powerful this skill becomes!
Initially, this skill is of green quality after the class change, but after Sterl's second class change, it would turn into blue quality...
And upon the third class change, [Star Blade] would become of purple quality, showcasing its growth potential!
Under the illumination of countless stars, his abilities had dramatically increased.
"This is insanely powerful!"
By now, Sterl had nearly sorted through all the gains from his class transition.
Without any exaggeration, he had undergone a complete transformation!
His combat power had increased manifold!
Furthermore...
While others who became the Master of Stars only experienced a significant increase in combat power under the starlight, becoming mere S-tier professionals on ordinary days,
Sterl, by utilizing the [Main Star] to share his pet's talent, could unfold the star domain at any moment.
Within this star domain, Sterl was deemed to be under the glow of the stars!
In other words, he could activate all the enhancements of the Master of Stars at any time!
...
He then discovered some scattered pieces of information.
Firstly, regarding the skill tree for the Master of Stars profession, the initial skill is Star Blade. After reaching level 35, Sterl could choose one of the two new skills for free learning, while acquiring the other would require completing a ritual and gathering materials.
Additionally, there was—
[Your talent: Dimensional Visitor (Enhanced) has been activated.]
[Drawing rewards.]
[You have received the equipment: Eye of the Stars]
[Due to the effect of your talent: Dimensional Visitor (Enhanced), you have received an additional reward orb (miniature).]
[You have gained 4 free attribute points]
Previously, during his class transition, Sterl, after enhancing Dimensional Visitor, received Dimensional Visitor (Enhanced), which resulted in him getting an additional miniature reward orb after each reward draw.
Now that Sterl had completed his class transition, he immediately received two rewards.
One was the equipment—
[Eye of the Stars]
[Type: Other-Dimensional Artifact (Unique), Eye]
[Effect: Upon equipping, +30 to mental attribute. You can activate [Astrological Observation: For units with a mental attribute not exceeding yours by 30 points, you can obtain complete information about them. When used on monsters, you can obtain a list of potential loot.]]
"A detection skill! And 30 points to mental attribute!" Sterl was thrilled, and his excitement intensified after examining the details of the Eye of the Stars.
The [Eye of the Stars] not only boosts the mental attribute by 30 points but also its detection effect transcends level differences. As long as the opponent's mental attribute does not exceed his own by more than 30 points, he could acquire complete information about them.
Incredibly practical!
Since many professions do not prioritize mental attributes, players of those classes might be at level seventy or eighty and still be fully revealed by Sterl's astrological observation...
The capability to inspect a monster's potential loot list was a huge boon!
Sterl was well aware of how complex [Transcendence], this game, was. Many hidden opportunities could remain undiscovered for years.
He had heard that in the Divine Mountain Empire, there was a dungeon suitable for level 10 players that concealed an S-tier profession class change item. An ancestor of humankind on Earth had, by a stroke of luck and a betrayal by his peers, been left injured for 7 days and 7 nights, triggering a hidden condition that allowed him to obtain the class change item to become an S-tier professional, ultimately leading to his rise to power!
Normally, no one would think of staying in a dungeon for so long, would they? Especially since most level 10 dungeons don't offer such opportunities!
In theory, unless by coincidence, the fortunes within this dungeon might never be discovered.
Similarly, in the [Transcendence], there are often many special monsters. They are very powerful, yet their defeat yields little reward, or they are extremely rare and valuable, hard to find, and killing them grants no reward at all.
However, these monsters have a very low chance of dropping hidden items, which could allow the finder to learn new skills, get a chance to change classes, or acquire precious equipment...
Therefore, Sterl's "Eyes of the Stars" significantly increases his chances of uncovering numerous additional opportunities.
He could directly see whether those seemingly special monsters had any hidden treasures in their loot list.
How could he not be thrilled?
As for the reward from another dimensional visitor, it was straightforward: four free attribute points. For Sterl, who could double the efficiency of any attribute point added, this was very practical.
...
At this moment,
After tallying his gains, Sterl frowned upon discovering—
No way, that female player was just too weak, completely dominated by another, somewhat twisted young man, unable to resist at all.
Instantly, Sterl knew he couldn't wait any longer. It was imperative to act now...
Otherwise, the upcoming situation was destined to be a one-on-one battle between himself and that young man!
Thus, he went full throttle!
Previously, when Sterl was clashing with the Blood God Priest, he simply activated "Descent of the Heavenly God" and passively activated "Child of the Stars," managing to withstand the opponent's onslaught.
And now...
Firstly, evolution!
For the first 20 levels, there were twenty free attribute points, and Sterl had previously added 5 points to Spirit.
Now, Sterl evenly distributed the remaining 15 points among the other three attributes, then added the 4 attribute points given by the dimensional visitor to each attribute, one point each.
Next, he equipped the "Eyes of the Stars" and placed the Dark Curved Blade in his off-hand. Sterl, holding his breath and focusing, expended double the energy to create a brand new Star Blade—a dagger!
Finally...
"Descent of the Heavenly God," activated!
Sterl's vision was filled with brilliant golden light, and a terrifying aura spread out in all directions!
Even Philip Waldo, indulging in his sadistic desires, had to halt his actions and look back in horror!
What...
What is this? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Meanwhile, Teresa, already with a blurred consciousness and a blank mind,
She slightly squinted, seeing a young man in front of her, draped in the clear blue power of the stars and an inexplicably oppressive, brilliant golden radiance!
The light was so magnificent, it pierced the heavens and the earth!
