Global Apocalypse: All My Awakened Talents Are SSS-level

Chapter 4: Chapter4-Two Diamond Chests!

Without a moment's hesitation, Harrison rushed forward, seizing the newly spawned Diamond Chest.

With both hands, he vigorously opened the chest.

"Congratulations! You've opened the Diamond Chest and acquired the unique equipment 'Realm Mirror'!"

"The Realm Mirror has been automatically placed in your backpack."

[Realm Mirror]

[Rank]: Unique.

[Effect]: Suppresses Fate.

Description: Beyond the mirror lies another world, granting passage back and forth. It is a supreme artifact bridging other realms!

...

Harrison took a sharp intake of breath upon reading this description.

He knew of this item!

In his previous life, the force Harrison was aligned with relied precisely on this "Realm Mirror."

When the first catastrophe struck, all members of their group sought refuge within this very artifact!

Although the Realm Mirror was later damaged, it still preserved an ample amount of vital force.

After the first catastrophe, this propelled them to rise meteorically, securing the rank of the world's third-largest power!

Moreover, this artifact possesses the unique attribute of governing fate.

Simply placing this equipment in one's treasury would bestow upon all members of that force a Luck+1 boost, and an additional 10% experience gain buff.

While the increase in experience might seem secondary, the Luck attribute is of paramount significance! It's potent enough to elevate the quality of equipment and items produced by the force by an entire grade!

With just this single artifact, Harrison felt it was tantamount to the combined resources of a major power.

Undeniably, any force possessing the Realm Mirror is poised for ascension!

"Not bad at all! Truly worthy of a Diamond Chest, this item is invaluable!" Harrison exclaimed, without hesitation.

He swiftly stowed away the Realm Mirror.

Returning to his car, he ignited the engine and stepped on the gas.

Next on his agenda: to race against time and claim the nearest second Diamond Chest he knew of.

Reaching that destination would be a considerable journey, demanding a relentless three days and four nights of driving.

But Harrison wasn't overly concerned.

When the Red Mist initially descended, most of humanity remained unaware that their physiques had been enhanced.

As a result, many still adhered to their habitual routines, succumbing to sleep when fatigue hit.

But Harrison was well-aware.

With the world now digitalized and their bodies strengthened by the Red Mist, he could easily endure several days and nights without sleep.

It was crucial to capitalize on his unique knowledge and swiftly secure the second Diamond Chest.

...

Underneath the vast expanse of shifting sands, life seemed extraordinarily fragile. This was the Gobi, a no-man's-land.

It was a considerable distance from where Harrison had started in Nixon.

Yet, other than the first Diamond Chest, this was the closest known location of another one to him.

Driving determinedly, Harrison's resolve was unwavering, even after nearly four sleepless days.

Whenever hunger or thirst struck, he addressed it right there in the car.

This desert was named the Taram.

Peering out of the car window, the Red Mist's density had visibly increased.

The initial visibility of fifty meters had now diminished to a mere ten or so.

Fortunately, electronic devices remained functional.

He relied on his navigation system to direct him to the place known as Taram.

During the drive, the Red Mist continued its ceaseless task of transforming his body.

By now, he had advanced to Level 6, and his overall attributes had surged to an average of 12.

His vitality ebbed and flowed robustly, and his thoughts were razor-sharp, as if fueled by boundless energy.

Harrison knew.

Upon reaching Level 10, everyone's attributes, on average, would ascend to 20.

This was the equilibrium enforced by the Red Mist.

It applied universally: the sick would regain their health, the disabled would reclaim their mobility.

Similarly, athletes, boxers, and special forces operatives would undergo the same transformation.

When it came to physical attributes, everyone would stand on the same starting line.

After driving another few minutes, a signpost finally came into view.

It indicated that he had arrived at Taram town.

He parked the car haphazardly.

Taram town lay in desolation, its roads long swallowed by the shifting sands, and the buildings within the town bore the scars of decay and neglect.

But Harrison's spirits were undeterred and high.

"At last!" he exclaimed. "Days of relentless driving have finally paid off!"

At the heart of the town, a familiar brilliant glow beckoned.

A beacon that Harrison recognized immediately: the irrefutable presence of a Diamond Chest.

It appeared his memory had served him right.

The second Diamond Chest was right here!

Without a second's hesitation, Harrison dashed towards it.

His newly-enhanced physique now allowed him to cover several hundred meters in less than ten seconds.

As he approached the untouched Diamond Chest, which remained undiscovered by others, relief washed over him.

And it made sense: under normal circumstances, this chest would remain concealed.

In his past life, Harrison had learned of this chest from an intrepid explorer known for traversing deserts, who eventually ascended to become a Level 100 powerhouse in the Soul Sequence.

Harrison eagerly opened the Diamond Chest.

As a brilliant light momentarily dazzled his vision, its contents soon unveiled themselves.

"Congratulations," a voice intoned, "you have successfully unlocked the Diamond Chest and acquired the unique equipment 'Soul Cube'."

"The Soul Cube has been automatically placed in your inventory."

[Soul Cube]

[Rank]: Unique

[Effect One]: Time Killer!

Accelerate the time field around the enemy, sealing their ability to recover, making them vulnerable to the erosion of time.

[Effect Two]: Death Gaze!

Harness the power of your gaze to assail the enemy's mind and psyche, plunging them into an illusion of their own demise. Should they fail to break free from this illusion within a minute, it will manifest into reality.

[Effect Three]: Soul Protection!

The Soul Cube guards its master's spirit, granting immunity to all soul-based attacks.

[Effect Four]: Soul Curse!

Invoke the Soul Curse on a single target, allowing them a mere seven days to live. Upon the culmination of this period, they will perish in the most plausible manner. (Cooldown: 10 days, forbidden spell: exacts a toll of 10 years from the user's lifespan.)

[Effect Five]: Soul Enslave!

Pierce through the barrier of an enemy's self-awareness, subjugating their will, and dominating their psyche. The ensnared foe will be compelled to obey your commands, but will eventually regain their self-consciousness, fostering an intense loathing for you. (The duration of domination depends on the mental strength of both parties.)

[Effect Six]: Dark Knowledge!

Amplify the potency of your dark spells tenfold!

Description: An enigmatic cube composed of unidentified souls. Each of its six facets harbors boundless arcane knowledge!

...

"Holy hell, this is powerful!" Harrison exclaimed, taken aback.

He hadn't anticipated the Soul Cube to harbor such formidable capabilities.

No wonder that explorer from his past life could ascend to be a Level 100 powerhouse within the Soul Sequence.

This artifact alone was on par with an SSS-level talent!

Harrison felt that even without drawing any SSS-level talents, merely wielding the Soul Cube could elevate him to be a dominant force in this world.
