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

Chapter 462 The Trace of the Dark Moon Goddess?

Sterl pondered, feeling a hint of suspicion—could it be related to the bloodlines of the human race on Earth? After all, the Holy Spirit Bloodline was also rooted in human race bloodlines, suggesting that the Earth's human race was indeed extraordinary! Rayna might be experiencing a partial ancestral return and awakening of her bloodline.

Shaking his head, Sterl realized he didn't have enough information to analyze anything further. Meanwhile, Linna pouted in dissatisfaction, "Sterl, are you not even going to look at me?"

"Then you can just go and be with Rayna," he teased.

"I'm leaving!"

The girl was acting coy. Sterl quickly put on a smile to appease her. Linna hadn't changed much in appearance, but she wore a tank top and a super short skirt. As she twisted her waist, her toned midriff showed, looking quite alluring.

As she approached, she casually tossed her outer jacket onto the floor, clearly having been dressed more conservatively outside. Now that she was back to see Sterl, she hurriedly changed her outfit...

"I missed you all," Sterl said as he gently patted Teresa's backside. The incredibly soft and delicate sensation caused a flutter in his heart. Teresa followed him with a slightly blushing face, glancing at Linna and Rayna, who were both in his embrace, a trace of envy flashing in her eyes...

Perhaps she would never receive the same kind of affection from him...

"Mm~"

This time, Rayna was quite bold and initiated a kiss. Sterl wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close as they shared a deep kiss. The sweet fragrance of the girl uplifted his spirits.

Then, Linna, who was quick to follow up, pushed him against the wall, and they exchanged kisses for a while. Eventually, Sterl gently helped the flushed girl to the side.

He felt...

Perhaps Rosalie had been too dazzling in her previous performances. Now that the demigod girl was absent, the others wanted to shine for a moment.

According to the usual pattern, Sterl should have been gearing up for a wild celebration, but instead, he wore a wary expression.He had initially planned to indulge a bit, but suddenly remembered the various stories he had seen before transmigrating—both villains and heroes often faced setbacks due to trivial matters, just like what had happened with Rosalie this time…

Logically, since she had gone out to search for traces of a powerful aura and hadn't found much yet, being called back should not result in any unexpected incidents.

But that "it shouldn't cause any issues" mindset…

Often led to unexpected events!!

Sterl absolutely refused to set any flags!

He said earnestly, "I don't know what Rosalie has found out over there. Just to be safe, I'll go check it out first. After that, we can continue…"

He exhaled as he spoke to the girls who were so close to him. He could sense that the three girls were already somewhat damp below, their eyes filled with emotion.

But Sterl's thoughts were to remain calm in such moments!

He must not entertain any feelings of complacency.

"Alright, then we'll continue handling matters related to the base," Teresa and Rayna responded obediently.

Linna deliberately pretended to be upset.

"Hmph."

She sat there, all haughty.

Sterl chuckled as he leaned in to give her a gentle kiss, then with a few swift movements, he teleported away from the base.

The scenery outside the base had changed quite a bit.

Originally, this was just a parched, barren mountain. However, thanks to Sterl releasing Purification Ripple a few times each time he logged off, the once desolate mountain had transformed into a lush landscape. It even seemed to have attracted various birds and animals, giving it a vibrant and lively appearance.

There were also some craftsmen that Sterl had captured in the past. At some point, they had returned to normal thanks to the purified environment and had married, started families, and were now enjoying picnics with their loved ones in the forest, their faces radiating happiness.

"Teresa and the others mentioned that various bases have some individuals who suffered severe radiation exposure, and they are often driven away. Our base has been secretly rescuing these people, which has gradually increased our manpower," Sterl mused. "It seems that most of them have restored a normal life now."

A smile crept onto Sterl's lips. As long as it didn't affect his own interests, he was more than willing to do good deeds like this. Helping his kind was an instinctive behavior ingrained in human genetics, a way to please oneself.

Sterl glanced around. If one overlooked the extremely desolate post-apocalyptic scenery, the area outside the base was quite similar to the park he remembered from before his transmigration.

"These animals must have been collected by Rosalie," he thought. "Only she could traverse the wasteland and gather various materials from before the collapse of Earth's civilization."

"But… these animals theoretically shouldn't be able to survive in the wild. Could it be that she stole them from some laboratories in populated areas?" Sterl felt a mix of admiration and concern as he surveyed the scenery outside. Discover exclusive content at M V L

It seemed Rosalie had been working diligently. But then he realized why the demigod girl was tracking down the traces of a powerful aura. Rosalie likely roamed through the wasteland frequently... collecting many rare specimens to fill Sterl's base, while also encountering various dangerous situations.

For instance, at this moment, she might have stumbled upon secrets concerning the human race on Earth, which could explain why Sterl was so anxious to find her.

Using his connection to the Illuminated King avatar, he quickly traversed several fragmented continental plates. He eventually paused his movements, not because he had found Rosalie's trace, but because he was momentarily taken aback while floating in the air.

Before him was a wave of energy that felt extremely familiar.

"Shadow power and the divine authority of the moon?"

"This fluctuation…"

Sterl was astonished. The wave of the moon's divine authority resonated closely with the Moon Law he had mastered.

No, it was more than a simple resonance!

This moon divine authority was the higher tier of the Moon Law that Sterl had stolen! It originated from Gloria's power!

Sterl focused his senses again and faintly detected the scattered remnants of Divine Power around him. He also saw strange plants nourished by the blood of deities after they had been wounded.

"A brutal battle occurred here not long ago…"

"The gods were fighting each other, and Gloria clearly suffered significant losses."

Closing his eyes to sense more deeply, Sterl came to a conclusion. He then noticed amidst the tumultuous Divine Power, a trace of Law Power associated with curses.

This fluctuation was identical to Rosalie's!

"So, she got caught up in Gloria's personal vendetta?"

Sterl felt a wave of relief wash over him. Forget about any gratitude Gloria might owe him. He had long since understood that she bore some responsibility concerning the human race on Earth and wanted to pass that responsibility onto him...

It was simply a matter of mutual exploitation.

Sterl would not risk his life for a mere Fission Law to help the so-called race. He felt reassured that Gloria had actively erased her memories, clearly not wanting to be tied to the secrets of the human race on Earth. Even if something happened to her, it wouldn't trigger any retaliatory mechanisms within the human race.

With that thought, Sterl felt a wave of calm wash over him. As for Rosalie, even if this situation turned deadly, it wouldn't bring any flames of disaster down upon him.

He carefully discerned the other Divine Powers in the current area... After hesitating for a moment, he decided to pursue them!

Sterl was curious why there were multiple Divine Powers present; there should only be one god, Gloria, on Earth. For the safety of his base, it was best to eliminate any divine presence. Additionally, the benefits of hunting gods included the soul experience converted from the Fire of Ten Thousand Souls.

Although each god provided only a small amount of experience, Sterl had no other means to gain experience at the moment.

In his quest to cheat his way to a higher level, he needed to cherish every opportunity to gain soul experience.

After following the trail, Sterl found himself amidst the ruins of a city. Despite the ravages of hundreds of years, the area remained relatively intact due to its location in a basin, shielded from harsh winds and rains. The vestiges of its former glory were still evident.

He stood before a massive, corroded billboard that had been reduced to a skeletal steel frame. In the distance, it seemed a significant earthquake had torn apart a corridor, splitting it into two; one half perched high while the other lay in a valley. The ground was a grayish hue, covered with weeds and the remnants of a concrete road.

In the high air of the street's center, Sterl spotted a faint golden figure hovering near Gloria, who appeared somewhat disheveled in her flowing robes. Surrounding her were three shadowy figures, exuding a bloody aura.

"Why bother?"

"Struggling is futile."

"Gloria, you know that in this cataclysm, the weak have no chance of survival."

"Since that's the case, why not convert your life into our sustenance?"

...

The three figures were all entities possessing either moon or shadow laws. They had arrived on Earth by tracking Gloria with special items, having followed her to her offline location.

At that moment, their expressions were relaxed as they communicated telepathically with one another.

"I thought there would be risks in finding her offline, but this planet called Earth is so weak; even a demigod is a rarity."

"After we swallow Gloria's divine authority and divine power, let's wipe out those Earth humans as a nice bonus, to vent our frustrations."

"I wonder why this bitch Gloria has so many trump cards. I had to exert so much effort just to force her into this corner."

"Wait, how about we don't kill her right away?"

"Let's have some fun first, brothers."

They displayed none of the so-called "nobility" of gods. Instead, they resembled three thugs, their eyes filled with lust and ferocity, while the powers of shadow and the moon swirling around them appeared extremely restless.

Gloria's face paled slightly. Though the three gods communicated with their minds, they made no effort to conceal their words. She was close enough to hear everything!
