I Am Not A Goblin Slayer-Chapter 386 - 242: Profession Level: 4

Has the captain finally finished leveling up there?

This major action benefited him greatly, but since Serdur just recently advanced to Level 4, it wasn’t enough to push him to Level 5.

The same goes for Ying.

She is now Level 5, stuck at the doorstep of the master phase, but the gap is extremely refined.

Even though she couldn’t break through, she still feels something loosened within.

Aaliyah, like Gauss, also started leveling up, but she is sprinting from Level 2 to Level 3.

After a long time, the turbulent air wave from Gauss’s tent finally gradually settled down.

At the same time, the sea of his consciousness returned to tranquility.

Deep in his consciousness, within the shining Magic Cup, magic power rotated and compressed, with part of the magic power liquid forming.

The liquefied magic power, which initially occupied only a small layer at the bottom of the cup, rose significantly to about 1/4 level.

At this moment, the bottleneck of a Level 3 Magic Envoy shattered suddenly.

The magic power within his body surged violently within a few breaths, becoming more robust.

All the power gathered in the Magic Cup and then fed back into the entire body, strengthening Gauss’s overall strength, magic power intensity, magic power total, Professional Talent, and so on.

After a long time, Gauss opened his eyes.

A bright gleam flashed across his eyes, then slowly receded, returning to normalcy.

"Profession level increased to: 4!"

Once the dust settled, the upgrade prompt popped up first before Gauss’s eyes.

Finally, Level 4.

Gauss exhaled.

"Intelligence +1"

"Strength +1"

"Perception +1"

His internal attributes also received corresponding enhancements.

He looked at the panel.

Strength: 10→11

Agility: 9

Constitution: 10

Intelligence: 13→14

Perception: 9 (8)→10 (9)

Charm: 10 (9)

The attributes improved through this upgrade are quite decent.

Besides the primary attribute of Intelligence, it also boosted his Strength and Perception.

Strength is a very good attribute, although it might sound a bit odd since in others’ view, he is still a Mage, but he knows Strength plays a substantial role in his overall prowess.

Perception has reached 10 points, although currently, this attribute is enhanced by the equipment bonus of the Lingxi Bracelet.

Next time, when Perception and Charm increase again, there won’t be any numerical change; it’ll just shift from 10 (9) to 10.

By then, apart from the proactive abilities, the Lingxi Bracelet will have no effect on attribute bonuses, perhaps it could be passed on to Aaliyah if she needs it.

"After leveling up to Level 4, my current strength..."

Gauss clenched his fist, feeling the power within his body. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Level 5 professionals and Level 5 demons surely won’t be his match, Level 6 professionals likely can’t defeat him either.

With no weak attributes, a slew of Professional and Racial Talents supplementing him, and further enhanced breakthroughs in two essential Racial Talents related to goblins.

As for stronger Level 6 demons, he’s not too sure since he hasn’t faced any directly, but he reckons even in the worst-case scenario, he should be able to retreat intact.

If the demon specified is of goblin race, it might even be easier.

Therefore, on the surface, he is a Level 4 elite professional, but in reality, he has surpassed Level 5, possessing battle capabilities comparable to Level 6.

"Whew—"

Once back in town, I can look into details about the extraordinary phase of demons and the master phase of professionals.

He vaguely remembers overhearing someone mention that professionals of the master phase undergo some unique changes.

Gauss crawled out of the tent, stretching lazily.

After stepping out, the sunlight was piercing.

He squinted his eyes slightly, letting the warm sunlight wash over his face.

His entire being was in an extremely relaxed state, feeling much like a breakthrough.

After all, surpassing Level 6 in terms of battle capabilities, even if just enough to manage certain situations, eases a lot of pressure.

At least, when venturing in the woods, there’s no need to worry about suddenly encountering an extraordinary phase demon and putting the team in danger.

Serdur twisted his waist and glided over.

"Captain, did you advance to Level 4?"

His snake-like eyes locked onto Gauss’s body, sensing a much stronger aura than before.

Getting stronger, captain.

Though now the captain is Level 4 like him, their strengths are entirely incomparable.

Or rather, if the Level 3 captain’s strength was terrifying, the Level 4 captain would be even more fearsome.

In fact, these days, even through the tent fabric, he sometimes feels like there’s a miniaturized version of a Giant Dragon sitting inside, rather than a human.

While making him feel close, it’s inevitably somewhat intimidating.

The good thing is that when facing the captain directly, there’s no sense of oppression like when he’s inside the tent.

After analyzing internally, he thought perhaps it’s the captain’s temperament and appearance that give a relatively gentle feeling, neutralizing the oppressive presence from his bloodline.

Or maybe it’s because both are too familiar with each other.

"Yes, it went smoothly, no mishaps." Gauss didn’t express too much excitement.

He was already quite thrilled inside the tent; now that momentum has somewhat dropped.

"Congratulations." Ying leaned closer.

She curiously glanced at Gauss’s pupil.

Now his eyes have turned gold again, shifting from green to gold, which she found interesting.

It seemed she couldn’t escape the color black.

The shadows where her abilities came from were pure black, her hair was pure black, and her pupils were pure black.
