Chapter 1: Spiritual Energy Recovery, Bronze-level Awakener

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Robert cautiously stood on the streets of the holy city of Rome, trying not to be enveloped by the bustling crowd.

On the wide and clean streets, the crowd looked excited as they cheered for the group of people clad in silver-white armor. They looked to be heading in one direction.

Today was a big day for the people of this city.

It was the day that the St. Petersburg Cathedral held its annual celebration.

More importantly, there was a certain event in this celebration that attracted everyone

The church was going to let the public test whether they were qualified to wield the church’s sacred object, the Sword in the Stone.

“I wonder if there are any lucky people who can pull out the church’s sacred object — the Sword in the Stone — this year.”

“I’m starting to doubt whether the Sword in the Stone exists or not.”

Robert could hear murmurs of excitement all around him. Listening to the gleeful discussions, Robert fell into a trance. He still felt a sense of strangeness and unfamiliarity towards this world where magic and reality intertwined.

After transmigrating into this world for a month, he had a clear understanding of this world.

There were many similarities between this world and the one from his previous life. The names of the countries and places that he was very familiar with in his previous life also existed in this realm.

The only and biggest difference was the existence of supernatural powers in this world!

The origin of supernatural powers came from a large-scale spiritual energy recovery that suddenly appeared in the world five years ago!

The spiritual energy in the world suddenly increased on a large scale. This also caused countless people to awaken supernatural powers during this period of time, becoming existences that far surpassed ordinary people.

These powers were no secret.

Therefore, at this moment, all the countries in the world announced.

“The era of the supernatural had arrived!

“It is time for humanity to rise to a new golden age!”

However, no one had found a reasonable answer as to why the spiritual energy had surged in the world.

Using his imagination, Robert hypothesized that was an invisible net that enveloped the entire world which caused all of this. Could some mysterious existence be the cause of this sudden recovery of spiritual energy?

Of course, Robert felt that his thoughts were just nonsensical conspiracy theories.

At his level of uselessness, it was a fool’s errand to even hope to pry into the truth.

Speaking of useless, Robert had nowhere to vent his anger toward the original owner of this body.

In his previous life, he was an honor student, but who could have expected that he would transmigrate into such a useless body.

“System, check my stats window.”

Five years ago, when the world’s spiritual energy erupted, Robert had awakened a supernatural Growth System.

[ User: Robert Kevin ]

[ Age: 17 ]

[ Natural Talent: Sylvan (Able to fuse all God-level bloodlines into one body) ]

[ Bloodline: None ]

[ Realm: Bronze-level 9-star ]

[ Cultivation Techniques: Basic Agility (Level 3) Basic Adaptation (Level 3) ]

[ Skills: Stealth Footwork (Minor) Pursuit (Beginner) ]

[ Item: Interspatial Ring (Capacity is 10 square meters) ]

Robert’s current realm was only bronze-level 9-star.

To be frank, this bastard’s body was only at a 3-star realm when Robert took over. It was all thanks to Robert’s hard work over the years that he was able to reach his current realm.

However, what made Robert feel gratified was that both his parents in this world had good family backgrounds and influence.

According to his understanding of his past life, Robert’s family was actually quite well off. They would be considered multi-millionaires in his past life’s standards.

This was also the reason why his predecessor, who was useless, was able to live comfortably until the age of seventeen.

At the same time, he also understood something.

Bloodline was the most important thing in this world.

Not only would possessing a bloodline allow one to possess special talents and unexpected abilities, but those who possess a bloodline would have a much higher cultivation speed than those without a bloodline.

That was not even the most frustrating part for people without a bloodline.

A bloodline that would continuously awaken and become stronger as their cultivation deepened.

Furthermore, all the top combatants in the world were bloodline awakeners.

Powerful bloodline awakeners were the target of everyone’s attention and admiration.

[ Congratulations, user, for completing the level-up mission. You have received a reward package. ]

[ The reward package has been sent to the system’s temporary storage, the user can open it at any time. ]

Standing in a corner, Robert suddenly heard the system’s notification sound in his mind.

His expression lit up.

“I’ve finally completed the mission.”

Back when the system was awakened, the system had issued a novice mission to him.

It was to aid Robert in increasing his strength.

Now, he had already raised his strength from bronze-level 2-star to 9-star.

He had just completed the novice mission issued by the system.

“Open the reward package!”

Robert said excitedly to the system without any hesitation.

[ Congratulations, host, for obtaining the novice reward package. The reward is to awaken any bloodline. ]

Any bloodline?

Did that mean that even powerful bloodlines were available?

Robert was a little excited. When he saw the system’s reward, the names of two divine artifacts immediately appeared in his mind.

One of them was naturally the holy relic of ancient Egypt — the Eye of Horus.

Unfortunately, the Eye of Horus was very precious. It was said to be kept underground in the largest pyramid of ancient Egypt — the Great Pyramid of Giza. Currently, it was strictly guarded by the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs.

It was said that in order to protect the Eye of Horus, the Pharaohs borrowed the power of the ancient Egyptian gods.

Even if a literal God tried to steal it, they would have to suffer painful consequences.

He was only a bronze-level awakener, so there was no way he would try his luck.

The other was the Trident enshrined in the underwater palace of Atlantis.

The Trident had the power to control the seas. It was an invincible imperial weapon.

However, the Trident was tens of thousands of meters deep at the bottom of the ocean. Even a literal God would not dare to go down there so recklessly.

Moreover, he was a bronze-level awakener. If he went, he would be torn to shreds by the immense pressure in the deep sea!

Robert sighed. What choice did he have?
