The Long-handled Warhammer, a weapon used by infantry to combat heavy armor and cavalry, features a palm-sized axe on one side and a hammer-like head on the other.
As John grasped the long-handled warhammer, a voice echoed in his mind once more.
"Ding! Do you wish to take up the Soldier Profession?"
John hesitated before responding. Out of courtesy, he acknowledged the weapon management mercenary and then pretended nothing had happened. He slowly returned to his kitchen, ensuring no one was around before silently confirming in his heart, "Yes, I choose the Soldier Profession."
The book in his mind emitted a brilliant light as the second page slowly opened, revealing various patterns reminiscent of battlefields, warrior weapons, and deathly corpses.
**Profession: Soldier**
**Level:**
**Proficiency:**
**Profession Traits:** Strength, Courage, Adaptability.
- **Strength:** Years of training as a soldier have made your body stronger than average.
**Effect:** Increases all physical attributes by two points.
- **Courage:** Frequently facing death has made you immune to ordinary mental attacks; you will not lose your wits in the face of death due to fear.
- **Adaptability:** Your robust physique allows for better recovery from illness and injury, with recovery capabilities several times that of an average person.
**Professional Skills:** Universal Qi Training Method, Military Long-Handled Axe Hammer Technique, Heavy Strike.
- **Universal Qi Training Method:** A training method passed down within the army; it is a prerequisite for becoming a knight. Through practice, one can awaken this technique.
- **Military Long-Handled Axe Hammer Technique:** As a Professional Soldier, mastering your weapon is fundamental. This technique is derived from experiences on the battlefield—simple yet practical.
- **Heavy Strike:** A special technique that amplifies your attack effects; it is a lethal skill on the battlefield but may lead to muscle strains and fatigue.
**Profession Bonus:** Each level gained increases strength by one point, stamina by one point, and agility by one point.
This time, the bonus felt even more comfortable; if the last upgrade felt like a foot massage, this one was akin to a full-body massage. His arms had become overly developed from training, but now his muscles were more balanced throughout his body, giving him an impression of increased strength.
With a deep breath, he swung the Long-handled Warhammer in his hand, feeling its power as the axe and hammer sliced through the air with a whooshing sound.
Compared to being a chef, the benefits of being a soldier were far greater and more balanced.
He just couldn't understand how soldiers leveled up. Unlike chefs, who could simply improve their skills by cooking, the mechanics of soldier advancement eluded him. Over the past few days, he had noticed that the proficiency of the chef profession increased with every meal prepared.
**Profession: Chef**
**Level:**
**Proficiency:**
He found himself puzzled by the soldier's profession. After staring at the information list for a long time without any clues, he decided to stop overthinking and began to experiment with his skills.
First up was the **Military Long-Handled Axe Hammer Technique**. With his left hand in front and his right hand behind, as soon as he gripped the long handle, a warm current flowed through his hands. Although he had never used it before, each swing felt remarkably familiar—upward slashes, downward cuts, sweeping arcs, and powerful strikes.
Every move was infused with a sense of lethality; at that moment, John felt like a seasoned veteran. As he continued to swing, his muscles began to swell with blood, and veins bulged on his forehead. With a tremendous force, he brought the hammer down hard onto the ground. The head of the hammer sank into the earth, sending a tingling sensation from the axe head through the long handle and into his hands—his muscles felt sore and numb.
Struggling to pull out the **Long-handled Warhammer**, he realized that his previous strike had utilized **Heavy Strike**, which had proven effective. It confirmed what he had read in the description: improper use could easily lead to muscle strains.
After resting for a moment while supporting his waist, he prepared to test his final skill: **Universal Qi Training Method**. Since arriving in this world, images of orc faces had been deeply etched in his mind. At that moment, he understood that this world possessed **Transcendent** powers.
In the days spent with the **Gray Bear Mercenary Corps**, he wondered if the **Captain** and that burly man possessed any **Transcendent** abilities. He planned to pry some information from other mercenaries but was unexpectedly rewarded with a **Cultivation Method** from his **Golden Finger**.
