Chapter 35

: 150 points of Physique! Surpassing human limits!!

"Come and sit down," Lin Hui patted the seat next to him. "The movie has just started."

A classic romance film is playing on the large screen.

Liu Xi walked over naturally and sat down to Lin Hui's right. The scent of roses emanating from her instantly filled Lin Hui's nostrils. She crossed her legs, and her fair skin was almost dazzling under the light.

Su Qingqian glanced at Liu Xi, and a sudden, inexplicable sense of crisis rose in her heart.

Sister Liu Xi... is so beautiful.

And with such a great figure, so smart, and even knows how to use a sniper rifle, and how well he coordinated with the boss during the battle just now...

Would the boss prefer someone like her?

Thinking of this, Su Qingqian bit her lip, quickly ran a few steps, and plopped down on Lin Hui's left side, sitting even closer than usual, her thighs almost touching Lin Hui's trouser legs.

"Boss, have some fruit."

Su Qingqian diligently picked up a cherry and held it to Lin Hui's lips, her big eyes blinking.

"Hmm, it's quite sweet." Lin Hui smiled as he ate it.

Liu Xi glanced at Su Qingqian's pitiful expression, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes, but she didn't point it out. She just looked up at the screen with a dreamy gaze.

At this moment, the carriage was quiet and cozy.

The only sounds were the movie dialogue and the three people's soft breathing.

Lin Hui enjoyed this rare moment of tranquility. But he did not become addicted to it.

Because he knew that this peace was built on a foundation of strength. Once he arrived in Fucheng, facing even more powerful monsters and elites from various guilds, his current strength would be insufficient.

After the movie ended.

"Alright, it's getting late."

Liu Xi stretched, revealing her beautiful curves.

"I'll be on night watch tonight, and I'll also take this opportunity to familiarize myself with the equipment upstairs."

She pointed to the operations room on the second floor.

There's now a cot laid out there; it's her private territory.

As a former female CEO, she enjoys her current comfort, but she is also more discerning. She knows when to advance and when to retreat.

Moreover, she needs to prove her worth, not just be a pretty face.

Goodnight, boss. Goodnight, Qingqian.

Liu Xi strode up the stairs, leaving the two with a silhouette that left much to the imagination.

"Good...goodnight," Su Qingqian replied softly.

Only Lin Hui and Su Qingqian remained in the living room.

"Go to sleep too, I've already made up the sofa." Lin Hui patted Su Qingqian's head and pointed to the large leather sofa that could be used as a bed. "There's still a lot of scrap metal to dismantle tomorrow, don't overwork yourself."

"Um... Goodnight, boss."

Su Qingqian nodded obediently and shrank into the soft down comforter on the sofa, only showing her eyes as she watched Lin Hui walk into the master bedroom.

Lin Hui turned off the headlights, leaving only a dim night light.

He got up and walked towards the master bedroom.

That was the safest and most comfortable place in the whole car, and also his own absolutely private space.

Close the door.

Lin Hui's relaxed expression vanished instantly, replaced by a cold and stern look.

He walked to the bedside and sat down, then flipped his palm over.

Several items appeared in his hands.

The crystal ball, about the size of an eyeball and completely transparent, which was seized from Tang Chuan, contained two four-segmented worms—the [Eye of Frame-Up].

【Name: The Eye of Blame】

[Type: Extraordinary Item (Spiritual Technique)]

[Quality: Rare]

[Special Effect: Transfers any biological aggro you are experiencing to any designated target within a 500-meter radius; limited to one use per day. Current remaining uses: 2.]

[Side effect: One hour after using this extraordinary item, the user will temporarily lose the ability to speak, lasting for 24 hours.]

So that's how the special effect works! That's why the level 3 White Thorn suddenly stopped attacking Tang Chuan and started attacking itself instead!

If my vehicle had been weaker at that time, I probably would have been killed by Tang Chuan's ambush.

The abilities of extraordinary items are too bizarre; they are truly impossible to guard against!

Lin Hui thought with lingering fear that a sense of crisis was quietly rising in his heart, completely dispelling the joy of having just upgraded his motorhome to level 4 today.

"Four days until the mission in Fukushima!"

Lin Hui carefully put away the "Eye of Framing" and then took out five more vials of medicine.

Three light blue [Primary Gene Agents].

A dark blue [Intermediate Gene Agent].

And a pale gold [Basic Mental Energy Potion].

These are the potions I've accumulated over the past two days through trading and monster hunting.

Lin Hui's eyes burned as he looked at the medicines.

He is currently 25 years old.

If three more injections of basic gene serum are administered, the level will reach 50, meeting the requirements for using intermediate gene serum...

What level will my physique reach by then?

He was really looking forward to it.

Lin Hui took a deep breath, picked up the basic gene injection gun, and aimed it at his arm.

laugh--!

The cool medicine was pushed into the body.

Immediately afterwards, a burning sensation of power spread throughout his body!

......

Twenty minutes later.

Lin Hui sat cross-legged on the bed, with three empty test tubes of [Primary Gene Agent] on the bedside table beside him.

"call……"

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, which shot out like an arrow, leaving a visible white trail in the air and even causing the curtains two meters away to sway slightly.

Physical Strength: 50 (Human Limit)

[Warning: Your body has reached the threshold for basic gene enhancement; continuing injections will not yield any further benefits.]

"We've finally arrived."

Lin Hui clenched his fist, feeling the overflowing power within his body, like a full reservoir.

50 points in Physique.

In the original world, this was already a peak that even top soldiers and Olympic champions could hardly reach.

Whether it's muscle density, bone strength, or nerve reaction speed, they have reached the ceiling of the human species.

But this is not enough.

In this post-apocalyptic world teeming with alien species, 50 points of physique are at best equivalent to being a slightly stronger human.

Lin Hui's gaze fell on the intermediate-level gene potion emitting a faint blue light on the bed.

[Intermediate Gene Agent]

[Effect: Constitution +100.]

[Requirements for use: Physical Strength must reach 50 points.]

"This is the reward for getting a 'Tier 3 First Kill,' which is more than a hundred times rarer than a basic gene potion..."

Lin Hui took a deep breath, his eyes resolute.

Without any hesitation, he picked up the intermediate gene serum, inserted the needle into his arm, and pressed down hard with his thumb.

laugh--

The dark blue liquid instantly rushed into his blood vessels.

It wasn't as cool as I had imagined.

On the contrary, it was a terrifying burning sensation, as if magma were being poured into the body!

"Ugh!!"

Lin Hui groaned, his muscles tensing instantly, veins bulging like earthworms writhing under his skin.

pain!

Excruciating pain that penetrates deep into the bone marrow and tears the cells apart!

It was as if an invisible hand was breaking and rebuilding every bone in his body, tearing and weaving every muscle fiber.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

The dense cracking sound of bones echoed in the room, like popping beans.

Lin Hui's body surface was oozing a large amount of dark red blood, and his body temperature rose sharply, even causing the surrounding air to distort with heat waves.

This inhuman torture lasted for a full ten minutes.

at last.

The burning sensation gradually subsided, replaced by an unprecedented, transformative lightness and power.

Lin Hui suddenly opened his eyes.

A chilling glint flashed deep within his originally dark pupils.

He stood up, and the grime and scabs on his body fell away, revealing skin that was as smooth as jade, yet contained explosive power.

Lin Hui's physique did not become as exaggerated as that of a bodybuilding champion; instead, it became more streamlined, with every muscle perfectly proportioned, as if it were nature's most perfect masterpiece.

[Ding! Physical enhancement complete!]

[Physical Strength: 150] (50→150)

"150 points..."

Lin Hui muttered to himself, then casually picked up a stainless steel thermos from the table.

He just squeezed it lightly.

"Squeak—"

That military-grade stainless steel cup, known for its sturdiness, was crushed into a ball of scrap metal as if it were made of paper!

I didn't even feel the slightest resistance!

"This power..."

Lin Hui looked at his palm, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.

This is not just an increase in strength.

He listened intently.

Through the thick soundproof door, he could clearly hear Su Qingqian's even breathing in the living room, and the rustling sound of Liu Xi's clothes rubbing together as she turned over on the second floor.

He even heard the buzzing sound of a mutated beetle flapping its wings fifty meters away from the car!

My gaze shifted.

The once dark wilderness became clear in his eyes, like a misty winter dawn. Low-light night vision, a capability usually reserved for felines, was now his.

A slight smile curved Lin Hui's lips.

Now, if he encounters a Tier 2 White Thorn again, even without using the RV to crush him or the machine gun, he is confident that he can kill him with just his physical body and a dagger!

After calming his excited emotions, Lin Hui picked up the pale gold [Basic Mental Energy Potion] again.

"Now that the physical body has broken through the limits of humanity, the mental strength cannot be neglected either."

injection!

This time the feeling was very gentle, like a clear spring flowing through my brain, instantly clearing my nerves, which were somewhat tired from the intense pain.

[Ding! Mental strength enhancement complete!]

[Spirit: 15] (5→15)

Although it didn't bring about any obvious changes like a sudden increase in physical strength.

However, Lin Hui could slightly feel that his thinking was clearer and his perception of the surrounding environment was more acute.

"Looks like I'll have to keep collecting mental energy potions."

Lin Hui stood up and went into the bathroom to wash off the grime.

Looking at his tall, straight figure and deep-set eyes in the mirror, he knew that from this moment on, he had completely transcended the realm of ordinary humans.
