“With four characteristics, the enhancement effect should be very outstanding.”
Zhou Jing was delighted.
The characteristics granted by the enhancement of the mutant blood depended on the mutant beast from which the potion came. One could technically get as many abilities as the mutant beast had.
However, when two people used the same blood potion, the actual characteristics they obtained might not be exactly the same. It depended on the quality of the potion, the physical fitness of the user, and other factors. The stronger the user, the higher the chance of inheriting more powerful characteristics.
For him, his basic physical fitness far exceeded that of ordinary people. His enhancement was quite impressive, far better than Ross.
“26 points of Physical Fitness and 20 points of Resistance… My current level has already far exceeded Barong’s. I should be able to crush a First Enhancement Mutant Blood Warrior… I wonder if I’ve reached the standard of Second Enhancement.”
Zhou Jing’s thoughts raced.
After strengthening, his attributes increased greatly, but he was still at Level One. For the time being, he did not know what the dividing line was.
He carefully experienced the changes brought about by the enhancement. His reaction speed was now extremely fast, and he could feel sparks like electricity running along inside him.
His body was very light, and he was quite strong. His instantaneous movements could produce a huge explosive force.
He casually punched out an afterimage in the air. With a bang, the sound of his sleeves rubbing against each other sounded like an explosion.
Seeing this, Barong was finally relieved. He laughed happily—his beard trembling.
“I knew you would definitely succeed in strengthening it. How do you feel now?”
“I feel like I can fight ten people now.” Zhou Jing moved his shoulders.
“Haha, it’s normal. When I first strengthened my body, I also felt this way. A suddenly strengthened body will become difficult to control. You can get used to it after a certain amount of time. You’ll understand what you can do after being strengthened, and you can regain control.”
Barong spoke of his own experience.
Zhou Jing blinked.
“It’s difficult to control? I don’t feel this way… I’ll guess I have time to find out.”
However, he did not retort and nodded as he listened to Barong’s teachings.
“With your physique, I’m afraid you’re almost at the level of a Second Enhancement now. It’s imperative for you to practice control.” Barong was a little envious and congratulated him. “From now on, you’re a Mutant Blood Warrior. You’re no longer an ordinary person. Tomorrow, I’ll bring you to change your equipment and buy some medicine… I’ll lend you the money first. You can pay me back in the future.”
“Okay.” Zhou Jing did not reject Barong’s kindness. He really needed some help at this moment.
“Have a good rest tonight.”
Barong nodded and did not say anything more.
He had also experienced strengthening before, so he knew that Zhou Jing would definitely be excited to study the changes in his body. Hence, he did not stay in the room anymore and returned to the room next door, leaving Zhou Jing some private space.
He was curious about Zhou Jing’s standards after being enhanced, but he restrained himself after some thought.
Someone who finished strengthening could not control their own strength. And it was already late, so Barong didn’t want to disturb the neighbors.
He wasn’t a coward—he just didn’t think there was a need to test it in the middle of the night…
After sending Barong off and closing the door, Zhou Jing did not continue to have a tense expression. His eyes flickered with excitement.
He quickly took off his shirt and looked down at the changes in his body.
His body was originally strong and muscular, but now, his muscles were streamlined, and his body contours were clear. His eight-pack abs were well-defined, and his abdominal lines were deep. His entire body was more streamlined.
He could clearly feel that his originally strong body was even more explosive now.
On the interface, an achievement was also displayed.
[Triggered achievement [Achieve Transcendence (Unique)].]
[Obtained 1,000 Astral Points! [Aptitude Enhancement – Comprehensive (Small)] x1!]
—Obtaining his first Supernatural system triggered this achievement, as well as an achievement reward giving him a small increase in all his aptitudes.
Physical Enhancement was a supernatural power, after all. This was the first time he experienced it, and he felt completely different. He was extremely energetic.
Although more than three months had passed in the Mutant World, he had spent most of the time through his Apostle. In fact, only about four days had passed in the main world.
Obtaining this power wasn’t as difficult as he had expected.
Zhou Jing was excited as he pulled Ross to test his current physical limits.
Ross was the best tool. Since he was also at the First Enhancement, he was the perfect test subject. No matter how he was treated, he would not complain.
Zhou Jing tested it a few times before he had a clearer understanding of his physical limits as well as what the base level of First Enhancement that Ross represented was like.
If his foundation was good, his strength would be higher after enhancement, and his physical fitness would crush Ross in all aspects. It was almost as simple as a father beating up his son. Even if he were to face another strengthened Mutant Blood Warrior, he would most likely be able to deal with multiple of them.
