Cassius absorbed attribute orbs frantically!
The quality and density of these attribute orbs were absolutely no less than last time!
Seeing his eyes lighting up, Kristen nudged him with her elbow.
"Hey, tone it down. You look exactly like an old lady fighting for discounted goods in a supermarket!"
Cassius snapped out of it, lowering his voice.
"I'm absorbing nutrients for art."
"Absorbing nutrients?"
Kristen raised an eyebrow. "You call this absorbing nutrients?"
"The way you looked at Dakota just now, you were practically sucking her dry!"
Cassius: "I was appreciating her acting!"
"As if I'd believe you!"
Just then, Robert walked over.
He looked much more relaxed than on set, his face no longer wearing that "Edward" smile.
"Hey, what are you two whispering about over here?"
He glanced at Cassius.
"Cass, how does it feel? More interesting than watching me and Kristen do the 'eternal love' bit, right?"
"Definitely more relaxing!"
Cassius clinked glasses with him. "Congrats on wrapping. Finally free!"
"Only partially free!"
Robert shrugged.
"Still have to do press tours. Just thinking about those screaming fans..."
"But at least I don't have to wear that white foundation anymore. Thank God!"
Cassius noticed that in his relaxed state, Robert dropped some green attribute orbs related to [Dry Humor Rhythm] and [British Self-Deprecation].
Absorbed them all!
Director Bill Condon also came over to chat, thanking Kristen and Robert for their hard work.
While expressing sincere gratitude, he dropped a blue attribute orb:
[Linguistic Infectiousness +3]
[Dialogue Attribute Leveled Up]
Cassius felt a surge of power enter his body, circulate once, and settle on his tongue.
He instantly felt his tongue become more flexible and soft.
Trying to control his tongue inside his mouth, he found he had more mastery than before.
It felt like even awkward lines could be spoken fluently now!
"What's wrong?"
Kristen had circled the party and found Cassius spacing out, so she hurried over to check.
Seeing Cassius unharmed, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Kristen approach, Cassius pulled her into his arms without a word and planted a deep kiss on her lips.
Kristen froze for a moment, then melted into his embrace.
The glass in her hand almost fell but was caught by Cassius's quick hand.
After a while, Cassius released her.
Kristen's face was flushed red. She glared at Cassius and leaned into his ear.
"Your kissing skills improved so fast. Who have you been practicing with privately? I'll interrogate you properly tonight!"
Without waiting for Cassius's reaction, she pretended nothing happened and went to get a new glass.
Cassius mentally cried injustice!
Unfortunately, Kristen couldn't hear him now!
Next up, just [Emotion] and [Rhythm] left!
Cassius took Kristen's glass, downed the wine in one gulp, and plunged into the crowd.
There was hope to level up the remaining two attributes tonight!
Cassius socialized while subtly absorbing the attribute orbs floating around the venue.
[Fake Smile Expression +3]
[Seductive Gaze +2]
[Flexible Body +2]
...
Gray, green, blue, purple!
Attributes related to dialogue, body language, expression, gaze, emotion, rhythm, and aura flooded into his attribute panel continuously.
The experience bars grew at a visible speed!
Before the wrap party ended, Cassius's remaining two attributes had all leveled up!
[Acting Attribute Panel]
Dialogue: Lv2 (10/400)
Body Language: Lv2 (89/400)
Expression: Lv2 (15/400)
Gaze: Lv2 (78/400)
Emotion: Lv2 (15/400)
Rhythm: Lv2 (8/400)
Aura: Lv2 (45/400)
...
Just then, a realization surged in his heart.
All basic acting attributes reaching Level 2 marked his entry into the level of "Mastery."
No longer just qualified, but possessing deeper foundations and shaping power.
Unlike unlocking the practical skill [Favorability Vision] when all attributes reached Level 1...
This time, after a slight vibration, the attribute panel didn't display a new active skill, but an icon of a virtual item!
The icon looked like a high-tech silver metal capsule, labeled:
[Male God Enhancer (Trial Version)]
Cassius focused his attention on it, and relevant information flowed directly into his mind:
[Detected all basic attributes reached Level 2. Activation conditions met.]
[Male God Enhancer (Trial Version) Unlocked]
[Effect: Over a three-month cycle, continuously optimizes the host's physique, height, facial contours, skin condition, and other external conditions until all physical hardware indicators stably reach above 90 points.]
[Scoring Standard: Comprehensive assessment based on current mainstream human aesthetic and health standards.]
[Current Physical Hardware Score:]
[Physique/Physical Fitness: 82 points (Comprehensive assessment of muscle ratio, endurance, explosiveness, etc.)]
[Height: 81 points (Still has slight growth potential)]
[Appearance: 85 points (Good foundation, but not top-tier, lacking unique recognizability and extreme impact)]
[Note: The enhancement process is gradual, conforming to natural laws to avoid attracting excessive external attention. Trial version effect limited to one cycle.]
...
Cassius froze in place, forgetting to put down the champagne glass he just picked up.
Male God Enhancer?
Raising him to a top-tier level of over 90 points within three months!
Thought this was an acting improvement panel, why start improving looks?
He subconsciously touched his face.
85 points for appearance!
Definitely a handsome guy among ordinary people!
But in Hollywood, where beautiful men and women were everywhere, he indeed wasn't in the very top tier.
He got roles before mostly due to acting skills, luck, and recent scandal traffic.
Height 179cm, publicly claimed 183cm!
He felt okay about it!
But in Hollywood circles, that really wasn't tall!
Based on his original body and looks, he was quite far from the standard of being breathtaking at first glance and able to carry a top-tier commercial blockbuster as a leading man!
This item was simply tailor-made for him!
Acting skills could be honed slowly through effort and his cheat, but innate physical deficiencies and postnatal limits weren't easily broken through by hard work alone.
With this, he truly possessed the ticket to compete on Hollywood's top track!
"Hey, Cass? You okay?"
Robert's voice pulled him back from shock. "You looked like you were contemplating the ultimate answer to the universe!"
Kristen also leaned over, taking Cassius's arm.
"Drank too much?"
Cassius quickly gathered his thoughts and squeezed out a smile. "I'm fine. Just feel full of power!"
Kristen rolled her eyes, thinking Cassius was subtly reminding her about the "interrogation" later tonight!
Cassius looked at Robert's perfectly handsome British face, then at Kristen's flawless profile.
Just wait!
In three months, this bro will also be a player with 90+ hardware stats!
Then we won't just be comparing acting skills!
