Third Class Advancement: Soul Saber Battlemaster
Congratulations! You have completed your third exclusive job change quest.
"Notice: Due to the difficulty of your job change quest exceeding the standard, the difficulty of the available job changes will be appropriately increased. (Note: This determination has been notarized and is in effect!)"
Seeing that the job change quest was actually completed, Lister was filled with excitement.
I thought that before the recruitment mission, the Third Advancement was still a long way off.
Who knew Wang Yue could give him such a big surprise?
Especially given the current high level of danger in exploration and assault missions, he needs to advance Third Advancement in advance to have a better chance of success.
Please select your job change from the following three options.
"Job Advancement 1: Soul Manipulator (Rare Class): Gains exclusive skill - Soul Grip (S-Rank): Ignores defense and hit detection, locks onto the enemy's soul, and instantly unleashes a soul strike, dealing high damage equal to 15% or more of the enemy's health. (Note: Attack damage is determined by the difference in soul strength between the two sides and can be boosted by the Robust Soul passive bonus.)"
"Job Change 2: Sword Master: Gains the job skill -- Saber Art Domain (S-rank): Within a certain range, activates the Saber Art Domain, summoning a long-dormant ancient sword Saber Soul to unleash several massive attacks in a short time, dealing 1981~2091 damage to enemies. Within the Saber Art Domain, all of the user's sword-type attacks can be imbued with Saber Soul slash, and the strength of sword-type attacks is increased by 50%."
Looking at the first two professions, Lister didn't give them much thought.
He has gradually figured out the pattern: classes with passive skills are often the last to appear.
The first of these two professions is even more focused on skillful manipulation, which is probably due to his second job advancement.
For Lister, even though this kind of active skill that deals true damage is very powerful, and based on the strength of the soul, relying on Robust Soul has a great advantage, it is not within his consideration.
Even if he had to choose between the two options right now, he would only choose the second job change, since it's the direction that aligns with his major system, and he still needs to prepare for the next job change.
Right now, I'm looking forward to the third job advancement.
"Job Advancement Level 3: Soul Saber Battle Master (Rare Class): Gains the passive skill -- Battle Intent Potential (Passive, No Rank): For every 1% of HP lost, the user gains a 1% increase in combat power (both attack skills). If HP falls below 30%, the user enters Battle Intent Eruption phase, further increasing combat power by 3%, and gaining some damage reduction and lifesteal. (Note: This slightly increases with level.)"
Just as he predicted!
The third job advancement is indeed a passive skill-based job advancement.
As expected of a battle master, his attacks become stronger the lower his health is, which is another enhancement to his ultimate combat power!
The extra boost, especially when health drops below 30%, is what Lister values most.
He has now truly reached the second stage of his power spike, and if you include the assistance of Jiji's "Death Resistance" skill, he has a total of three stages of power spike.
Their combat power during their true explosive phase is absolutely at its peak.
The choice was made without hesitation.
"Class advancement selected: Soul Saber Battle Master".
Instantly, a familiar, intense stinging pain swept through my body.
It begins on the skin and spreads deeper into the organs, brain, and soul...
I thought this was a special experience only available when you had the Robust Soul passive skill during your second job advancement.
Who knew that even after Third Advancement, I would inevitably have to go through it again? Fortunately, the pain is much less intense than last time.
Even so, Lister lay quietly on the bed, his whole body breaking out in a sweat again, every muscle in his body aching so badly he couldn't move.
At the same moment, a strong Fighting Spirit began to erupt in my mind.
It seemed to originate from his original will and erupt.
Countless memories of battle flooded his mind, and in an instant, he had many new ideas about the moves he made in those battles.
In particular, the ability to react and respond during combat now feels completely new.
My thoughts on combat, especially duels, became much clearer and more fluid for a moment.
It should be the combat Battle Intent Potential. It's no wonder it's Third Advancement job advancement class; this kind of invisible, hidden enhancement is even more important.
By retaining Lister's fighting habits and style from his previous life, and now with new ideas and corrections, he will be stronger in some ways when facing the enemy.
The job change was still ongoing, but the stinging sensation gradually faded, replaced by an indescribable warm feeling that seeped into my heart.
The stinging pain throughout my body was soothed by this warm sensation, and the excitement and Fighting Spirit that had just been ignited quickly subsided, leaving only an extreme feeling of comfort.
Finally, the warm and comfortable sensation receded like the tide.
Notification: The third job change has been completed.
Congratulations, your level has increased.
"Congratulations, your Merrick Saber Technique has improved!"
The nearly 33 billion experience points that were previously retained have now all been added to Lister.
Although the experience points seem huge, the actual experience gain increases tenfold after the Third Advancement.
The level that had been suppressed for so long could be leaped forward significantly, but ultimately it didn't reach its full potential in one go.
