Chapter 003: Growth

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

For instance, the elder Su Ren, although he ventured out in his youth and faced many dangers, ultimately failed to hunt spirit beasts and was bitten, resulting in the loss of his left hand and left foot, which significantly diminished his combat ability

"Get out, do you think we want to stay here? It has been several days without cleaning, and there is a strong stench."

Based on the comprehensive strength of approximately 100 kilograms for a level one mortal, Su Shijie at level seven is estimated to possess a strength of around 180 kilograms, while the younger sister at level nine is expected to have a normal strength of about 220 kilograms

However, those who rely solely on potions to achieve their goals merely possess superficial data on paper. When confronted with various dangers, they are far inferior to those who have grown through their own diligent cultivation in the Awakening and Transformation stages. In battle, they can be easily outclassed, and even face multiple levels of counterattacks, which is quite common.

Perhaps there is a possibility that my true self, as an evil god, does not experience pain

Awake? What exactly have you done?

Because humanity has only been in contact with spiritual energy for a millennium, there is almost no inherent immersion. Therefore, before reaching the awakening stage that serves as the starting point for most interstellar civilizations, there exists a stage known as the 'Mortal Stage'.

Su Shijie did not know how to describe his feelings at that moment, only that he was desperately holding on while screaming as if he were slaughtering a pig

Shaking his head and dismissing some thoughts, Su Shijie also made a decision

Now take a look, it was indeed a piece of iron waste in the past

I do not want to suffer, but I even less want to die

Bai Xinxin said while holding her stomach

A scream akin to that of a slaughtered pig escaped from Su Shijie's mouth

It is precisely because of the support from his family that he was given the space and time to pursue his own path with determination

Recalling the scenes of near death, he thought of the final moments of his past life, inexplicably stirring a wave of heartache and heaviness within him, causing his eyes to blur involuntarily

Sitting up from the hard bed and leaning against the wall in a half-reclining position, Su Shijie couldn't help but curl his lips at the words of the two.

In the current No. 2 residential area, my family holds the highest status. Even if the entire P-314 shelter is included, we can still be considered part of the core group

Please, young man, think before you speak. You haven't attempted to break through since you were twelve years old. I still vividly remember the ridiculous expression on your face when you last tried to break through, it has almost become a shadow of my childhood

Roll away ~ Let me have a good rest

This is also the essential difference between the awakened tier and the mundane tier

If you want me to give you extra lessons, you can ask me

It is precisely because he has lived two lives that he can better appreciate the value of familial affection

People are ultimately forced to act!

Su Shijie sighed, then picked up a bottle of Happy Fatty Water beside him and drank it all in one go.

The initial step of genetic evolution is to select a starting gene for oneself, utilizing methods such as suggestion to facilitate a swift entry into a state of psychic guidance

The Awakening Stage is considered the normal starting phase in most interstellar civilizations, characterized by a psychic energy infusion of 10% to 100%. It is similarly classified into nine levels, with each level further divided into early, mid, and late stages.

If fully unleashed, it could generate air currents strong enough to kill an ordinary person nearby

Wow, I can't take it anymore

Father once said that gene potions can achieve results in one step, without any pain, and there are even precious potions that can directly elevate a person to a transformative class

Su Shijie murmured a phrase and began to control his breathing rhythm, gradually entering a state of cultivation

Bai Xinxin looked at Su Shijie waking up, and it seemed she was somewhat relieved, yet her tone still carried an impatient undertone

Of course, due to the presence of firearms and various types of hot weapons, experiences and conditions cannot be entirely the same. It is quite common to encounter situations in the field that exceed one's level. The evolution level is merely a reference on paper

These are also one of the reasons and sources of confidence that Su Shijie had in choosing his path in gaming before.

Rather than pain, I would prefer not to die

However, it seems that I was indeed somewhat unreliable in the past. I began my journey of genetic evolution at the age of 10, reached level 6 of the mortal stage at 11, and level 7 at 12. As my memories gradually resurfaced, I became fearful of the pain associated with breakthroughs, and thus I have endured until now, waiting for the arrival of the awakening genetic potion, hoping to achieve a painless enhancement

Sister

When choosing my own path, I also sought my father's advice

The intense cramping pain that felt as if my entire body was filled with eggs and then simultaneously shattered erupted from head to toe

I had never encountered it before, as my father, elder sister, and second brother were all strong enough to keep danger at bay. But when they are not around, who knows what one might encounter

Brother San, I will be able to help you then

There has been a problem with the training

The mid-term, early stage, and late stage within the same level differ by approximately 10% in terms of paper data, while the late stage and the early stage of the next level differ by 20%.

After making the decision, one gritted their teeth and took this step forward

The entire P - 314 shelter is solely under the command of Commander Sergey Brin, who, in addition to being a first-level reformist, has successfully inherited the bloodline of his ancestors, which is on par with the current bloodline level of Su Shijie, thus qualifying as a knight-level bloodline

Third brother, you are not feeling unwell anywhere, are you? Father will be back by tomorrow at the latest

It has been confirmed that the awakening period gene potion can be obtained through the training class. In the future, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they are expected to pursue a civilian career. They have not yet relinquished their psychic guidance and have all reached the ninth level of the mortal rank

If it were not for frequently borrowing their notes before exams, then urgently cramming for lessons, and my daily procrastination, even with good talent, I would have likely been kicked out of the advanced class long ago

I won't ask anymore, so please stop saying such foolish things

Bai Congcong twirled the ends of her hair, her face filled with concern, displaying an expression as if she was worried that Su Shijie had injured his brain.

Due to the lack of a spirit of striving, potential may be diminished to varying degrees.

Gradually focus your mind on the starting point of the spine at the back of your head, and begin to lock onto the chosen ancestral stem cell cluster.

Even a late-stage Level 9 awakened individual, like a father, only possesses a certain degree of resistance to ordinary firearms; more importantly, they rely on their awakened computational power and instinct for danger to evade attacks

After stepping out, she turned back and poked her little head out to say to Su Shijie

However, what has led me to the illusion that I am not a useless person now

Even after the elder sister and the second brother both reached the fifth level of awakening, it would not be a significant issue for the family to immigrate to the prosperous floating city.

Even if the genetic potion is about to be brought back by his father, he still turns over and prepares to enter a state of cultivation

Although the emotional responses of the two individuals are rapidly becoming full and energetic, Su Shijie cannot help but murmur to himself.

Fine, since you have a talent for gaming, pursuing this path is acceptable. I will support you until you reach the transformative stage, which should not be a problem.

I feel unwell

Su Shijie spoke part of the truth

The scene fell into complete silence

After speaking, he thoughtfully helped Su Shijie close the aged door.

Sometimes, it is not that you do not want to fight, but that you cannot avoid fighting

Moreover, if one can truly continue to grow stronger...

A gap of 45% can already be considered as a tiger entering a wolf pack

Ah ! ! ! !

Bai Xinxin, unable to hold back any longer, finally burst into laughter, her smile somewhat distorted.

When a person experiences a significant change, they will inevitably alter something about themselves; the transition from boyhood to manhood may only require a single night

But now, this suffering must be endured regardless!

I am far inferior to my talented self, a typical child of someone else's family

To achieve this, in reality, one can only continuously strengthen oneself

Moreover, after the pain subsides, there will still be itching; that kind of itchiness that penetrates to the marrow and internal organs, yet cannot be scratched, is certainly no easier to endure than pain. This pain and itchiness cannot be accustomed to or numbed.

One can choose their preferred path while lying down, and the benefits that can be gained from this path are certainly not inferior; naturally, one would not want to endure hardship.

Bai Xinxin wrinkled her nose and made a face at Su Shijie, then she pulled Bai Congcong, who wanted to help tidy up the room, and dashed out.

However, as a late-stage level 9 of the Awakening tier, he possesses an explosive power of seven to eight tons. Although the increase in speed is not as significant due to air resistance, his maximum attack can break the sound barrier

Pfft

After the selected primordial stem cell gene infiltration has completed a stage, the process of assimilating the infiltration degree of all body cells begins. Each breakthrough at every stage must inevitably undergo this process.

At the age of sixteen, he is at the ninth level of the common rank. Although his talent is somewhat inferior to his own, it is still quite commendable. The key is that he is able to endure hardships and possesses perseverance

However, now my father is a shelter instructor, my elder sister is the leader of the hunting team, and my second brother is the leader of the investigation team. The conditions are quite good, and we have already become accustomed to living here

Biometric characteristics can be identified, and saturated cleaning can be selected, but precise locking cannot be achieved, nor can specific levels be distinguished

However, due to the influence of psychic energy coverage, all electronic locking functions in the areas affected by psychic energy cannot lock onto beings that are permeated by this energy, whether through electromagnetic radar or optical radar.

Apart from the transformation of bloodlines, individual differences will gradually be compensated as the level of infiltration increases, making up for any deficiencies.

Otherwise, if one enters the floating city, Su Shijie can no longer think of leaving a path for further studies; he can only pursue a single path to the end.

Moreover, although the apparent improvement of one or two levels each time may seem insignificant, the gap between the early stage of Awakening Level 1 and the later stage of Awakening Level 9 reaches as much as twenty-four to twenty-five times

Sugar easily induces a sense of happiness

including internal organs, including bone marrow

Having lived in a peaceful era in his past life, and having been well protected since childhood in this life, he now understands more clearly the sigh that his father often uttered

The irate Su Shijie waved his hand dismissively, expelling the two from the room

Fat house water is both beautiful and affordable, and even in this strange era before us, it remains a common type of beverage

Therefore, the younger sister was previously able to effortlessly lift herself onto the bed

Even Bai Congcong, who has a gentle personality, has a somewhat strange expression, as if he is holding something back

By the way, the key subjects for the mid-term exams are about to begin. Each time, I am hanging by a thread on the elimination line. This time, do not get eliminated, so that I won't be embarrassed.

He is now also an instructor at the P-314 shelter, having taught his elder sister Li Meier and his second brother Li Wei, both of whom have reached the fifth level of awakening.

He no longer wished to experience that feeling of being out of control between life and death, as if one foot had already crossed the threshold of the underworld

Levels one to nine represent a genetic spiritual energy infusion of 1% to 9%. Each level does not have early, mid, or late stages, and the paper data for the improvement at level one is approximately 10%.

Bai Xinxin kept patting the edge of the bed, wiping away the tears that had gathered in the corners of her eyes with a smile

This is a form of baptism

It feels as if my entire body is about to melt, as if my whole body is shattered like eggs? Is my whole body experiencing gout multiplied by 10? Is my whole body suffering from kidney stones multiplied by 10?

Originally, Su Shijie had already reached the current limit of genetic infiltration, but he had always refrained from making a breakthrough out of fear of pain

Having grown up together since childhood, Su Shijie has a very genuine affection for his father and siblings in this life. As for the memories of his past life, he can only choose to lock them away deep in his mind, feeling powerless.

Currently, the solar system has been enveloped by psychic energy, so the first step is to allow one's own genes to be permeated by this energy and to merge with it

Originally, I intended to wait for the gene therapy to be fully developed, and then strive to profit from the transformative period of gene therapy. However, it now appears that danger will not always wait for me.

The gap at the first level is approximately 45%, and the breakthrough in rank between level 9 of the ordinary stage and the awakening stage is also about this degree of improvement

The apparent gap may not be significant, but in reality, if there are no substantial differences in experience and other aspects, and if external assistance is not utilized, a difference of merely 10% under normal circumstances becomes an insurmountable chasm

With the P - 314 shelter training class, the competition is relatively less intense. In order to ensure that Su Shijie can maintain a performance that keeps him just above the elimination line and not be expelled, he has chosen to stay here.

After finishing his soda, Su Shijie let out a loud burp and fell into deep thought

It now appears that the previously perceived stable path is, in fact, not as robust as one had believed.

These two individuals are a few years younger than myself, yet they have already advanced a grade to be in the same class as me, with one achieving first place and the other second place in the advanced class.

However, Su Shijie always felt that he was not on the path of combat, so it did not matter.

The battles between psychic organisms typically rely on each other's reflexes for manual targeting.

It seems as if the perception of the senses has been amplified

In addition to relying on genetic agents to achieve results in one step by simply 'taking a nap', one must undergo this process of self-guidance for every improvement.

Although several of the other siblings are orphans of my father's comrades, in essence, they are no different from family

Father, your beloved son almost didn't make it

The density of bones and muscles can withstand non-lethal attacks from a standard electromagnetic pistol

On the other side of the door, Bai Congcong seemed to have dragged Bai Xinxin back again, pulling her out. Then, a soft voice from outside the door came from Bai Congcong:
