Awakening：The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener - Chapter 42 Soloing the Boss! A Walk in the Park!

42  Soloing the Boss! A Walk in the Park!

Teresa blinked in surprise, instinctively showing a look of anxiety: “Facing it alone could be life-threatening!”

“Master, the move you used to kill Philip Waldo must have drained a lot of energy, and it won’t insta-kill a boss.”

“We really shouldn’t go!”

By now, she had fully immersed herself in her role, deeply concerned for Sterl’s well-being.

It’s known that solo killing a boss of the same level is an “achievement”… one that was last achieved over a thousand years ago by a player from the “Tears of the Lamenting Song” clan.

Such a feat is beyond the reach of ordinary players, isn’t it?

No matter how talented Sterl might be, this seemed like a suicide mission!

Teresa couldn’t shake the feeling that this was a bad idea.

Even with her support, in a critical moment, she could rescue her master and then they could flee…

But Teresa didn’t want to see Sterl severely injured.

However…

Sterl ignored his maid’s concerns. With a Bloodthirsty Sprint, he appeared right in front of the treant-shaped boss.

Descending God!

Blazing golden flames enveloped Sterl.

After evolving into an SS-grade Starlord, saying the upgrade wasn’t significant was an understatement. Sterl’s attributes significantly increased, adding a total of 13 points across all attributes, which could be included in the base attributes boosted by Descending God.

This means…

His attributes soared by 26 points, equivalent to a C-grade player leveling up more than four times!

In the midst of the battlefield, the dazzling golden flames surged uncontrollably, unable to be hidden even by the dense forest.

The treant boss, in rage, extended its gigantic branches, furiously slamming down!

Its power was terrifying, smashing an area of tens of square meters with a single hit.

From the ground, countless sharp branches violently sprouted!

“Master!” Teresa, standing on the outskirts, almost couldn’t resist intervening.

Her worry was causing chaos. As this female player, fully aware of her master’s ability to teleport, was still utterly terrified.

At this moment, Sterl had already teleported above the treant boss.

[Phosphor Fire – Meteor Form]! n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Instantly, flames descended from the sky, bombarding everything!

Although the treant boss was huge and had strong vitality, its size made it impossible to dodge the heavenly fire.

In an instant, the intense flames engulfed the entire treant boss!

It turned into a spectacular torch!

The entire forest was set ablaze by the boss, turning into a sea of fire.

Even from a distance, one could witness this magnificent scene. High above, the stars shone with a cerulean light, while on the ground, the similarly blue flames echoed the starlight, resembling a meticulously crafted painting by an artist!

Due to the flames’ effectiveness against the treant boss, Sterl’s attack caused massive damage.

However, as Teresa mentioned, after a smooth combo, Sterl’s energy was significantly depleted.

What Teresa didn’t know was that under the starlight, Sterl’s recovery speed was also remarkably fast.

Moreover, within the dungeon, the Starfield was unleashed without limit. Sterl’s teleportation within the field, which usually consumed star power, now had zero cost.

Thus, the battle quickly entered its final, decisive phase.

Sterl was indeed burning through energy at an alarming rate, maintaining the doubled energy consumption of the Star Blade to boost his attributes, and launching blue-quality skills that doubled the drain… But as long as he could endlessly utilize the teleportation provided by the Starfield, he could easily bide his time until his energy was restored!

Then, Sterl unleashed one Meteoric Phosphor Fire after another!

At first, the treant boss still had the capacity to resist.

However, after the second blaze, many of the boss’s branches fell to the ground, diminishing its combat strength.

After the third blaze, the boss’s mobility was greatly limited, and its attack desire sharply dropped.

The fourth…

The fifth…

After a total of eight Meteoric Phosphor Fires, the treant boss was completely reduced to charred timber, collapsing to the ground.

And the forest in the Starfall Wilderness, a rarity in itself, was turned into a sea of flames.

Including Teresa, who urgently sent a team invitation to her master so they could form a duo and be spared from friendly fire damage. Otherwise, she feared she might be dried out by the residual effects of the skills!

In the center of the flames, Sterl teleported in front of the charred remains of the boss, his demeanor calm.

At this moment, he seemed like a deity in control of the flames!

And the sole witness to this spectacle, Teresa, flushed with emotion, couldn’t help but kneel to the ground.

Partly due to the influence of the secondary star, and partly because her own emotions were overwhelming.

This was the master she followed!

Even a top-tier lifeform boss was effortlessly defeated by him!

Sterl stepped forward to collect the drops from the boss.

First was a B+ grade pet egg, which he stored in his backpack.

The boss dropped three other items.

[You have obtained ten gold coins.]

[You have obtained the Heart of Plant Essence (Special)]

[You have obtained an item: Green Grass Potion.]

“No equipment dropped?” Sterl frowned slightly, feeling a bit unlucky this time. Although ten gold coins were substantial, Teresa’s entire fortune was already his. Sterl hardly lacked these ten gold coins.

As for the remaining two drops—

[Green Grass Potion: A potion rich in special energy. Upon use, permanently increases all attributes by one point.]

Sterl played with the crystal bottle filled with pale green liquid, not hesitating to down it in one gulp.

A warm sensation spread through his body, and his attributes increased by 2.5.

Then came the last item.

[Heart of Plant Essence (Special)]

[Effect: When consumed by a pet, there’s a chance it will learn to harness the power of flora. When crafting equipment, this item can be integrated into the equipment to add extra effects.]

“An addition?” Sterl toyed with the pale green crystal that pulsated like a heart, a bit disappointed.

Though it could boost attributes, this item was only useful for pets or crafting equipment.

So, did that mean the only real gain from this boss was the attribute boost from the Green Grass Potion?

No wonder… players in the Transcendent realm are so struggling. Even after paying a huge price and defeating a boss, they might not get anything good. Truly a pitfall.

Sterl grumbled, as he casually stored the [Heart of Plant Essence] in his backpack.

At that moment, Teresa also rushed over, looking at him with a face full of admiration, “Master, you are truly mighty!”

“You could challenge a boss of the same level!”

“It’s just a shame that others have already achieved this feat before. Otherwise, your strength could have significantly increased!”

Teresa babbled on, clearly genuinely feeling that Sterl had missed out…

Sterl, on the other hand, appeared indifferent.

Could the reward for this feat of challenging a boss of the same level be more than the reward I got for challenging a boss before my class advancement?

Impossible.

…

After the boss fight, Sterl, though still in good condition, felt slightly fatigued.

By then, he had squeezed every bit of value out of the Starfall Wilderness. For the time being, he didn’t continue his ventures but instead used Teresa’s high-end wilderness survival kit. Sterl lay in the tent, using his maid as a pillow, enjoying a massage.

Time flew, and soon the instance was officially coming to an end.

Sterl saw the stars in the sky dimming bit by bit, the ground of the instance cracked, and space itself fissured.

Sterl’s primary star was the Star Egg. He could sense that the instance was nearing the end of its life and was about to collapse.

With a faint glow, Sterl and Teresa’s bodies are gradually becoming illusory and are about to be teleported back to the dungeon entrance of the Divine Mountain Empire.

Teresa quickly stood to one side, adopting the indifferent posture Sterl had instructed, pretending the two were hardly acquainted.

Finally…

Sterl felt a flash before his eyes. His body lightened, and then he was standing on solid ground again.

This time, he felt a sense of relief in his heart, as if the imminent collapse of the Starfall Wilderness instance had kept him instinctively on edge. Back in the main universe, Sterl felt a weight lifted off his shoulders.

Then, he saw a group of extremely surprised players running towards him.

The leader of the intermediate base, Miste, along with many professional players, shouted loudly.

“Thank goodness! Are you alright, Miss Teresa!”

“We’re relieved to see you’ve returned safely!!”

“We don’t know what happened to the instance. It suddenly collapsed, and it nearly scared us to death just now!”

“If anything had happened to you, we wouldn’t have been able to live with ourselves!”

…

The group was nearly in tears.

At the same time, they brushed past Sterl, running to Teresa’s side.

What was that about coming to rescue Sterl, the genius player??

Ha, what a joke!

No one cared!

Not a single person gave Sterl a second glance!!
