Chapter 48 - D-class, Just Trash
Looking at Stark’s deep smile, Chris’s beautiful eyes froze.
She naturally knew what Stark was hinting at.
As long as she submitted, she would be able to obtain the blessing just now.
Although Chris wanted to open her mouth to refuse, she had no choice. The enhancement that Stark had given her just now had practically given her a new life.
It was too comfortable.
After experiencing a period of hesitation in her heart, Chris finally gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and spoke slowly.
“Lord Stark, I am willing to submit to you and be your most loyal servant.”
Looking at Chris’s appearance, Stark was naturally satisfied.
Now that Chris had taken the initiative to submit to him, then he only needed to…
“Light of Domination.”
Stark spoke slowly, and a ray of light descended towards Chris.
[Ding, the target you have chosen is recognized as a specific group of people. You have successfully released the Light of Domination!]
[You have successfully obtained the first loyal follower!]
The sound of the system notification rang in his ears.
It meant that he had enslaved Chris.
“Additional enhancement!”
Stark once again blessed Chris with the aura of the God of Fire.
After receiving this blessing, Chris’s expression clearly brightened up. However, this time, she lowered her head and spoke respectfully.
“I’m Chris. Thank you for your grace, Master Stark.”
“Mm, if I have to go out in the future, I’ll leave this house to you to protect.”
Stark gave an order to Chris, who was kneeling on one knee.
After subduing Chris, this was the decision he had made from the start.
After all, this was his first home in the apocalypse. Susanna did not have much combat power. It would not be good if he was not around one day and the place was robbed.
Now that he had Chris, a level-12 Transcendent being, he naturally did not need to worry about his home.
“This is 2,000 crystals. Take it and evolve your superpower. You can find a room to sleep in tonight.”
As he spoke, Stark gave Chris 2,000 crystals from the 20,000 crystals on his wristband.
Since Chris was already his loyal subordinate, there was no need to worry. Giving her some crystals to increase her combat power was a good choice.
“Yes, Master!”
Chris lowered her head in response. The rope on her body had long been cut off by Stark with the Sword of God. There were many rooms at home. After accepting 2,000 crystals, she immediately found a separate room to stay in. She was prepared to use the crystals to improve her superpower.
After doing all this, Stark had no reason to stay in the living room.
He turned around and returned to his room.
He had already signed in today.
He still had one last thing to do for the hunt of the level 20 elite beast tomorrow.
After opening the crystal wristband and his personal information page, a notification appeared before his eyes.
[Player has reached level 15. You have met the requirements for class advancement. You have received a class advancement quest!]
Class Advancement Quest: Kill an elite monster that is not lower than level 20 and obtain its beast core. You will be able to complete the class advancement quest at the cost of 20,000 crystals!]
[current Quest Progress: obtain a 20 elite monster core: 0/1
Crystals stored: 20,000/20,000]
..
This was the exclusive class advancement quest that the main God had given him after he had reached level 15.
Class change was an event that a Transcendent person had to experience to become stronger. Stark naturally attached great importance to it.
At the same time, he was also curious about his SSS class, Oracle. After class change, what class would he get and what abilities would he obtain?
It just so happened that the elite monster tomorrow would be level 20.
If nothing unexpected happened, after killing the elite monster, he would be able to smoothly proceed with his class change.
As for tonight, he would rest well.
In order to deal with the level 20 monster tomorrow, Stark did not stay up late and rested peacefully.
The night passed bit by bit.
The next day arrived.
Early in the morning, Stark went to the place where he had made an appointment with John.
..
“Rustle rustle…”
On the streets of Manhattan, under the trees, withered and yellow leaves continued to fall.
At this moment, as the number of fallen leaves increased, figures began to appear on the streets.
They did not seem like a regular team of Transcendents who had come out to level up. Instead, they were waiting for something.
“John is also in the group. It seems like it’s them. They have appeared separately. It seems like this group of people isn’t a regular team!”
Stark hid in the dark and watched everything quietly.
After hunting Transcendent monsters for several days, his cautiousness was far from what an ordinary person could compare to.
The reason why he wasn’t the first to appear was to observe the teammates he would get.
If this team was John’s people, perhaps Stark would really consider leaving or secretly following them.
But from the looks of it, this team was obviously formed at the last minute, so Stark pretended to be the last person without any hesitation.
“You’re here!”
The moment Stark appeared in front of them, John greeted him.
“Yes!” Stark replied indifferently.
His gaze swept over this group of Transcendent people.
There were two women. Including Stark, there were five men.
The two women looked like sisters. Apart from their exquisite faces, their appearances were also extremely similar.
As for the other four men, one of them held a shield in his hand. His full beard covered his face, and he had a happy smile.
A slender and handsome man had a longbow on his back that flickered with silver light.
The other man was tall and sturdy, and his whole body seemed to be emitting a faint pressure.
As for John, he walked in the middle of the crowd with a smile on his face as usual.
“I’ve gathered everyone here today. We all know what the reason is, so I won’t say anymore!
“Everyone, please introduce yourselves. It’s best if you can tell us about your equipment. In this way, we can formulate a corresponding strategy!”
John looked at everyone and spoke slowly.
However, after he finished, everyone fell silent.
In the apocalypse, no one would easily reveal their information. After all, this was a world without rules. No one could say for sure if there would be people coveting their equipment, which would lead to a situation of murder and robbery.
“It seems that you guys still don’t understand. The most important thing for a party is to be united. You have to know that the monsters we are facing this time are level 20 elite monsters!
“How many of us can kill a level 15 elite monster alone, not to mention a level 20 elite monster? With the attributes of this monster, other than those freaks on the ranking board, who else can beat it?
“If you want to get the treasure, you can only rely on each other!”
John laid out everything, looking at everyone indifferently.
“Alright, since I’m the one who asked for it, I’ll go first!” A smile returned to John’s face.
“My name is John; I’m sure you all know me. Transcendent class: Mage, level: 17. Luckily, I have a special skill, summon!”
“Since John has said it, I’ll report it to you! My name is Sandy, my class is common ground, level 16, and I’m good at support!”
One of the girls who came with John immediately replied.
“Then, I’ll also tell my class. My name is Lisa. I’m Sandy’s sister. My Transcendent class is Warlock. I’m level 16. I’m good at giving negative buffs to monsters. I’m a violent Warlock!”
After the only two girls finished their information, they looked at the crowd.
Their eyes seemed to be filled with contempt. Even the girls who were weaker in the apocalypse had said it. If they didn’t say it, they wouldn’t even be as good as the girls.
“Hehe, since there are three people who have said it, let me be honest too. My name is Arthur, an ordinary Transcendent warrior. I’m level 20. I don’t have any other abilities, but I can take a beating. I can still be a meat shield.”
The bearded man with a shield said with a smile on his face.
After saying that, everyone looked at the three people, including Stark.
“My Name is Hobart! Transcendent class: Magic Bow! Level 27! As for the specific information, I can tell you that my class is D-rank!”
The man with the bow on his back sneered. After looking at everyone, he said to Arthur, “As long as you can pull a good monster, I’ll kill him!”
When Hobart opened his mouth, almost everyone was shocked.
A D-rank Transcendent class!
Transcendent classes were also divided into E to SSS classes.
Warrior Transcendent class, Mage Transcendent class, and Warlock Transcendent class all belonged to E rank. Each level represented a massive difference in strength.
For the weakest E ranks like them, even if they had the same level, or even higher than Hobart, under the suppression of the class, their strength was still not enough.
If it was a one-on-one fight, they would definitely be defeated.
Everyone looked at Hobart with a hint of wariness and fear in their hearts.
Stark’s expression when he looked at Hobart also changed. However, his thought was completely different from the people around him. Instead, it was filled with ridicule!
With the SSS Oracle class, he was hundreds of streets ahead of Hobart’s D-rank class.
A D-rank class, in front of him, was just a piece of trash.
