Just call me Thor - Chapter 46

Chapter 46: All glory to Thor
Thor has once again achieved an SSSS-tier completion.

This marks the third time within three days that Thor has received a global announcement from the Tower of Truth!

The human race’s powerhouses have even grown somewhat accustomed to this, and compared to the initial excitement, the public channels are now filled with all sorts of bizarre comments.

“The last SSSS-tier rating felt like it was just yesterday, oh, it actually was yesterday.”

“The Tower of Truth can’t be without an SSSS-tier rating, just like the human race can’t be without Thor!”

“This round, this round is like a proxy service for Tower of Truth ratings, no SSSS-tier completion, full refund!”

“…”

Of course, their calmness has a reason. Since the second level of the Tower of Truth was contaminated by a demon god, it took some time to purify, delaying the distribution of Thor’s completion rewards.

Everyone gathered together, eagerly waiting for the global rewards, and naturally, the conversation still revolved around Thor.

Yesterday’s SSSS-tier rating awarded several powerful limited-time buffs, including epic buffs like [Guardian Angel]! Everyone’s appetite was thoroughly whetted, filled with anticipation.

What surprises will today’s Thor bring to everyone?

…

Meanwhile, Mike also faced a choice. He stood upon the wilderness, with the Tower of Truth’s notification ringing in his ears.

“Calculating completion rating and rewards….”

“[Blessing of Truth] activated, completion rating automatically +1!”

“Reward obtained, [Stormweaver Mastery Orbs], please select the corresponding elements, no more than two.”

Options appeared before Mike: [Wood element], [Water element], [Fire element], [Wind element]….

According to the previous hint from [Eye of Truth], with a 100% Exploration Rate and an SSS-tier completion, Mike could add one element mastery to Stormweaver. However, that would be automatically assigned by the Tower of Truth, randomly distributed, without considering Mike’s preferences!

But an SSSS-tier completion brought Mike two benefits:

1. He could freely choose the elements he wanted, allowing for better combinations.

2. He could add two elements instead of just one, undoubtedly a significant quality improvement!

“The choices are a bit limited, all basic elements.”

Mike pulled out a mirror, admiring his handsome face.

[You want to admire your handsome face again, okay, I admit you are indeed handsome]

[Alright, alright, testing element affinity….]

Since he had to choose new elements, Mike naturally wanted to know which elements he was more compatible with!

Only with higher element affinity could he better utilize the class’s advantages, maximizing his lightning damage through the interaction of various elements.

[Top five element affinities are as follows:

Lightning: 1000%

Soul element: 110%

Fire element: 95%

Wind element: 90%

Water element: 70%]

According to the hint from [Eye of Truth], Mike’s optimal choices should be [Soul element] and [Fire element]. Unfortunately, [Soul element] wasn’t an option provided by the Tower of Truth, so he had to reluctantly let it go.

Excluding the [Soul element], Mike had three options: wind, fire, water.

“The water element’s healing, shielding, and endurance are the best choices, but unfortunately, its affinity is only 70%, far less than the fire element!”

Mike analyzed, “Wind, lightning, and fire elements are compatible and complement each other.”

Wind and lightning, lightning and fire, fire and wind, any combination of these three elements is compatible! If Mike chose the water element, water and lightning, fire and lightning would be manageable, but water and fire are incompatible, making coordination somewhat tricky.

Having made up his mind, Mike made his choice.

“Confirm receipt of [Stormweaver Mastery Orbs · Wind element] and [Stormweaver Mastery Orbs · Fire element]?”

“Confirmed!”

The two elemental orbs fell into Mike’s hands, and he used them immediately.

“Class template evolution successful!”

“Stormweaver (Wind · Fire · Lightning)

Effects of spells from these three elements +100%, cd times for these elemental spells -50%!”

“Learned class skills [Wind Fury], [Ignite]!”

[Wind Fury (Lv1)]: Enhances the next skill or attack, releasing it twice consecutively, buff lasts 6 seconds. During the Wind Fury buff, Wind Fury cannot be used.

Mana cost: 300 points

CD time: 6s

Unlike [Charge Up], which doubles effects, Wind Fury releases continuously. Thus, the effect of Wind Fury is not as significant as the improvement brought by Charge Up.

However, this is not absolute. [Wind Fury] is superior to Charge Up in certain situations.

For example,when releasing [Thunderclap Strike], with Wind Fury, the first strike could bring the enemy’s health below 30%, and the second could deal true damage!

In such special cases, a single Wind Fury > a single Charge Up! But… The greatest use of Wind Fury might be saving time for Mike to stack Charge Up!

Due to Mike’s class, his [Charge Up] skill only works with Lightning skills.

Mike could completely save half the stacking time by following a combo sequence of [Wind Fury] → [Charge Up]*2 → [Wind Fury]…

[Wind Fury: Some skills are born to be supporting roles, right?]

[Ignite (Lv1)]: Releases flames to burn a designated target, causing (200 + 1.5*Intelligence) fire element damage over 5 seconds, also inflicts a grievous wound effect, reducing the target’s healing effects by 40%, and grants true sight of the target.

Ignite increases the grievous wound effect by 1% for every ten enemies killed.

For every hundred enemies killed, the duration increases by 1s, and the damage proportionally increases.

Mana cost: 200 points

CD time: 20s

So far, the three class skills Mike has mastered—Thunderclap Strike, Wind Fury, and Ignite—are exceptionally powerful!

Thunderclap Strike provides burst damage, Wind Fury shortens the Charge Up time and also offers decent burst and melee capabilities, while Ignite supplements continuous damage and adds a grievous wound effect.

Each skill has its strengths, and they are incredibly powerful. After all, these are the class skills of the Stormweaver SSS-tier template!

Meanwhile, the global announcement rang out again.

“Congratulations to participant [Thor] for upgrading to [Stormweaver (Fire, Lightning)]!”

Mike noticed that the global announcement only mentioned [Fire] and [Lightning] elements, not [Wind]!

“Is it because it was an extra option from the SSSS-tier reward that it wasn’t announced?”

Mike’s eyes lit up, immediately realizing that this situation was hugely beneficial to him!

Now, the entire human race, even the whole world including the Abyssal Plane, received the news in real-time that Thor now masters both fire and lightning!

And Mike secretly trained in [Wind], keeping it as his ace in the hole. This is something no one else could have anticipated!

Moreover, hiding the [Wind] element class also adds a layer of disguise to Mike’s true identity!

Mike could easily claim that he primarily practices the wind element as a mage. This way, no one would suspect he is Thor, as the classes don’t match up. This leaves Mike with a lot of room to maneuver, allowing him to advance or retreat freely without being restricted.

The Tower of Truth has once again created a miracle for Mike!

Under the eager anticipation of everyone, the Tower of Truth announced the global rewards for this SSSS-tier upgrade!

“Participant Thor’s SSSS-tier completion of the second level awards all Tower of Truth humans the buff [Striving for Perfection]!”

“Limited-time buff [Overall Enhancement], all attributes of Tower of Truth humans +20%, lasts 6 hours!”

“Limited-time buff [Lightning Speed], Tower of Truth humans’ movement speed +30%, attack speed +15%, lasts 6 hours!”

“Limited-time buff [Farewell to Weakness], Tower of Truth humans, upon death, will not enter a weakened state when returning to the Core City of Truth, lasts 6 hours!”

“[Striving for Perfection]: The next time you enter the realm of class change, automatically gain a 20% Exploration Rate, with a higher probability of obtaining hidden classes and special classes!”

“The duration of the above buffs only counts within the Tower of Truth! Time will not decrease in the real world.”

When the global rewards were announced, public channels, faction channels, and national channels all fell into silence! Everyone’s eyes widened, staring fixedly at the announcement, motionless, even forgetting to breathe!

Until… the first person began to cheer: “Praise Thor!!!”

Like the first firework of a festival, it ignited everyone’s emotions, and the entire human world plunged into a frenzied sea of celebration!

Such powerful buff rewards are invaluable to the human race, benefiting everyone immensely! Their faces were filled with happy smiles, firmly believing in a bright future for everyone!

In various channels, countless words ultimately condensed into one sentence:

“All glory to Thor!!!”
