Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener - Chapter 733

Chapter 733: Chapter 733: The Method to Control the Royal City!
After evenly distributing the freely assignable attribute points, a more powerful force surged out from his body.

Sterl wore a look of enjoyment on his face, savoring the sensation of his strength growing incrementally.

Especially under the influence of Star-Bone Body, this feeling was magnified countless times, making it almost addictive.

Meanwhile, Augustine, who was still kneeling on the ground, felt a rising sense of fear in his heart. He had no idea what Sterl was doing, as the man had stood there silently for several minutes without making a move, while his aura grew increasingly terrifying.

Sterl, however, had no time to concern himself with Augustine. He was fully absorbed in reaping the benefits of his breakthrough to legendary status.

Under normal circumstances, not to mention a legendary breakthrough—just reaching divine status wouldn’t lead to such a massive boost in power.

But this was the result of accumulation. Sterl had nearly reached the limits of every realm before the legendary stage, even shattering those limits time and time again.

And the leap from third class to legendary had taken that limit to a level so high that even the [Tanscendence] system had difficulty calculating it.

Furthermore, the repeated refining and accumulation of soul power had contributed to this unimaginable windfall!

The most noticeable effect was the improvement in attributes. The enhancement of a few hundred points in attributes was even more outrageous than thousands of points would have been!

Sterl took a deep breath and slowly released the Star-Bone Body state. But even without the Power of Star-Bone, he was still more than capable of overpowering Augustine!

It was like having the equivalent of thousands of basic attribute points, giving him an incredibly terrifying strength. At the very least, Sterl had never seen anyone with such a raw attribute boost.

And this was just the most basic form of improvement.

With the breaking of his realm’s barrier and the experience points he had accumulated, Sterl’s level would rapidly rise.

Then there were his newly awakened exclusive legendary abilities, the Star Threads, along with the effect of the World Overlord title and the powerful equipment rewards.

Once he fully absorbed all of these, his strength would undergo another leap.

If the situation weren’t so dire, he would have burst out laughing. He had been preparing for this breakthrough for so long.

After all this time, he had finally reached this point. From here on out, his progress would be faster than ever, and no one could stop his march forward.

He then turned his gaze toward Augustine.

Despite being the same person, for some reason, Augustine felt unnerved under Sterl’s current stare.

“Since you’ve made your choice, then open your mind and don’t resist.”

Sterl had never believed in verbal promises; he only trusted his own strength. Therefore, no matter what the true intentions of this Frost Giant Dragon were, once he placed the followers’ mark on him, it would mean the Dragon had lost the possibility of betrayal forever.

Upon hearing this, Augustine felt some resistance in his heart. But at this point, if he showed any further signs of opposition, he would surely be crushed to pieces, becoming nothing more than the dinner of these Hellish beings.

Soon, after over ten attempts, the followers’ mark was successfully planted into Augustine’s soul.

“Is this the limit?”

Sterl paused for a moment. After subduing Augustine, he suddenly felt a strange sensation in his soul.

It was as if the number of followers he could control was about to reach the limit his soul could bear.

“I can probably subdue two more at the level of high divine authority. That should be enough.”

He didn’t dwell on it. Solving this problem was simple. Either he could remove the mark from some weaker followers to free up space, or he could increase his soul’s strength to expand his capacity.

Naturally, Sterl chose the latter.

However, this wasn’t an easy task.

His soul level had already reached level 90!

Every level beyond this would become increasingly difficult to achieve. Even with the ten mother bodies constantly producing, it wouldn’t be something he could accomplish in the short term.

But now, he had the qualifications to improve. With the help of the mother body puppets, reaching level 99 was a matter of time.

As for the 3,000 Fortune needed for his evolutionary cheat, that was even simpler. He had already collected that when he consumed Hell.

“Congratulations, Master! From now on, you are the one and only ruler of this world!”

Seeing that Augustine had become one of his own, Kun hurriedly praised Sterl.

Sterl nodded, feeling pleased. His legendary story had been completed, and he had successfully ascended to the legendary rank.

But he knew well that Alpha 8 was only one world within [Tanscendence]. There were many more worlds like this in [Tanscendence]. This was just the first step.

“Master, what should we do next?”

“How about we strike while the iron is hot and break the world barrier to conquer more worlds!”

“With your strength, Master, the entire main world will fall under your dominion!”

“Give the order, Master! Your will will be the direction of our conquest!”

The Lords of Hell were full of excitement. They had thought that the power of the main world would be formidable, but now they realized… it wasn’t all that impressive after all.

“Establish defenses at the center of the world. As for the rest, wait for my command.”

As soon as he spoke, everyone fell silent.

Conquering more worlds? Forget about it.

While others might not understand, he knew exactly what was going on in his own mind.

It might seem like he had conquered Alpha 8, but this was just the beginning. Only when he could truly neutralize the divine-level forces and the powers in the upper realms would he truly own this world.

Moreover, his reason for ruling this world was solely to complete his legendary story.

Now, with the great calamity approaching and Sterl having a rough understanding of the true nature of the catastrophe, he had no intention of developing a large-scale force. Not only would it not benefit him much, but it would also push him into the center of attention, a position he preferred to avoid.

Even if he were to expand, his strategy would be purely elite-based, hiding in the shadows rather than putting himself in the spotlight.

From the very beginning, his actions had never been reckless; they had always been calculated, focusing on enduring survival. A brief moment of glory meant nothing in the grand scheme.

With his words, Kun and the others, though somewhat confused and disappointed, never questioned Sterl’s commands. The power of the followers’ mark ensured that their loyalty would drive them to carry out his orders with all their might.

“You, come with me.”

Sterl turned his gaze to Augustine. The Frost Giant Dragon flinched. He had planned to blend in with the Legion of Hell, but it seemed that idea was no longer viable.

Soon, a massive creature, over a thousand meters in size, took to the skies. Its wings, wide enough to block the sun, flapped gently, sending it soaring hundreds of miles away.

On the majestic dragon’s enormous head, Sterl stood, hands behind his back, looking down at the world below as waves of ambition surged within him.

“Under heaven, all is the king’s land. On the borders of the land, all are the king’s subjects.”

He had once dreamed of this day, but never imagined it would come so quickly. Reflecting on his rise from nothing to now standing atop an ancient Frost Giant Dragon, ruling the entire world, his heart swelled with emotion.

Of course, he knew very well that all of this was the gift of his strength. Whether it was power or position, they were all byproducts of strength. Without strength, everything would be a castle in the air, ready to collapse at the slightest touch.

The Frost Giant Dragon’s speed was incredible. As a high-level divine authority and a creature of ancient Frost Giant Dragon blood, its speed was comparable to high-ranking gods who controlled the divine authority of speed.

Before long, Augustine landed just outside the royal city of Orichalcum.

“Can you shrink in size?”

“Y-Yes, I can.”

Augustine’s Divine Power surged, and in the blink of an eye, the thousand-meter-long body of the dragon began to shrink at a visible speed. Soon, it was reduced to a two-meter-long small dragon.

“Master, Master, this is the royal city of Orichalcum, right?”

Seeing the grand structure, Augustine swallowed hard, unable to suppress his curiosity and asked.

“That’s right. But this city no longer poses any threat.”

Although the shrunk Augustine no longer had the imposing presence or the dominance he once had, he appeared much more approachable. It reminded Sterl of his pet, the Star Radiance Dragon.

However, the Star Radiance Dragon’s growth had long since fallen behind his own progress. He hadn’t released it in a long time, and now, with the formidable enemies he was facing, unleashing the Star Radiance Dragon would only serve to offer the enemy a free kill.

“No threat?”

Augustine paused, his face showing surprise, before quickly turning into excitement.

“Master, you mean… you resisted the suppression of the royal city? So, the royal city is in a weakened state right now!?”

His voice suddenly grew animated, nearly deafening Sterl with his loud enthusiasm.

“Speak your mind.”

Sterl gave him a calm look, but if he didn’t hear something truly surprising, he would force the foolish dragon to shut up.

“If… if I’m not mistaken, the royal city should be in a state of world fusion right now. Plus, the powerful gods from the upper realms of Orichalcum have not descended, meaning the control over the royal city is not absolute. So, if that’s the case… maybe you could completely take control of the royal city!”

“That’s right! Absolutely right! As long as your power reaches the level of Divine Power, you can definitely do it!”

“We’re set! This is it!”

Augustine started shouting and flapping his wings like a lunatic, looking almost comical.

However, after reflecting on Augustine’s words, Sterl paused for a moment, a brilliant light flashing in his eyes.

“Are you saying… this is true?”

He grabbed Augustine by the neck, speaking slowly and deliberately.

Augustine shuddered slightly but quickly responded, “Master, I would never deceive you. Others might not know, but I learned from my ancestors that if you can withstand the backlash of the royal city’s will, you can completely suppress the city! At that point, you can seize control of the royal city’s will and dominate the entire city!”
