Supreme Evolution

10. Body Enhancement

A zombie on the left quickly approached, opened its ferocious mouth, towards the human's neck in front of it, but Ryan had already heard Yasmin's reminder and had no time to look back, nor did he need to look back.

Having already broken through the gate of evolution to become a true deviant, not only had his strength and explosive power increased exponentially, but his ability to predict the environment had also improved to a certain extent.

Just by relying on the slightest sound of the wind around him, he could accurately judge the enemy's attack route.

He retracted his neck, bent his legs, and lowered his body, avoiding the attack with great ease. At the same time, he swung the wooden rod and attacked from bottom to top. The sturdy wooden rod accurately hit the zombie's lower abdomen, piercing it cleanly.

The second zombie pounced from the right, extending its slender and sharp claws, and headed straight for Ryan's chest.

Ryan didn't even look at it. He freed his left hand, swung it in an arc, and grabbed the zombie's wrist. He twisted his five fingers with force, and there was a continuous sound of bone cracking. The second zombie's arm was immediately broken into two pieces.

The third zombie also came over, its ferocious mouth less than half a meter away from his back. Ryan's left hand was holding the arm of the second zombie, and the wooden rod in his other hand was still inserted into the body of the first zombie, and it seemed that he was about to be bitten.

But at the critical moment, Ryan took a deep breath and roared, swung the long stick in his hand violently, and the zombie was immediately thrown out and smashed hard against its own kind.

With a loud thumping sound, the third zombie collided with the first zombie, and there was a crackling sound of broken bones.

Ryan took the opportunity to retract his left hand, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and with one blow, he directly hit the neck of the zombie with a broken arm. He spun his body violently and jumped back two meters to avoid being bitten by more zombies.

He demonstrated the power of a deviant to the fullest. If it had happened two days ago, facing the attacks of three zombies at once, even the most physically fit ordinary person in the team would have been killed.

But he handled it with ease. While dodging quickly, he was also able to use the zombies'weaknesses against them and launch a desperate counterattack. In just a few seconds, three more zombies died on the spot.

Of course, continuous fighting also came at a price. Ryan did not have a mystic vein, which meant he couldn't refine the energy in the air through breathing like other deviants, so the more strength he used, the less he had.

After dealing with seven zombies in a row, his physical strength had been greatly consumed, and he began to breathe slightly heavy. He immediately exerted his remaining strength, swept the wooden stick across, and knocked the eighth zombie away with one blow. Then he rushed forward and kicked the door that had been knocked open, forcing it closed.

With a forceful impact, the door was pushed back, and those zombies that had not yet had time to rush in were blocked outside.

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, blocked the door with his body, and looked around at the dead bodies on the ground with a slightly gloomy look.

Even a person with special abilities couldn't possess unlimited physical strength.

Although his strength and explosive power were several times stronger than that of an ordinary person, as long as the battle lasts for a long time, the defects of insufficient physical strength would be immediately exposed.

Secondly, his mystic vein level was zero, so he couldn't fight and refine the energy in the air at the same time. His physical strength recovered very slowly. He knew that if the problem of the mystic vein was not resolved quick enough, even if he was lucky enough to have the evolution system, he couldn't become a truly powerful mutation.

Feeling the soreness and swelling in his body, Ryan felt helpless.

After taking a deep breath, he began to search the corpses of the zombies with his eyes. He was able to complete his first evolution only by taking the risk to swallow a gray crystal. If he could find the next brain crystal as soon as possible, the energy he consumed would naturally be quickly replenished.

But unfortunately, zombie crystal cores were not formed casually, even the lowest level gray crystals were extremely rare.

He searched the corpses of the eight zombies but didn't see even a gray crystal, and felt a little discouraged.

Just when he was feeling helpless, some abnormal movement occurred in the evolutionary system in his body. He was startled, and quickly immersed his consciousness into the system.

A system prompt quickly flashed in his eyes.

[Congratulations, host. You have successfully hunted down eight zombies and activated the extract module. The system background will provide you with some medicine that can quickly replenish your physical energy, the Body Enhancement Pill]

What the hell? Ryan was perplexed by this. He quickly opened the main interface of the Supreme Evolution System and found that there was a new item column in the <Mall> page:

[The body-enhancing pill can restore the user's energy and physical strength in a short period of time. Each pill costs 5 points]

"Bloody hell!" Ryan's eyes widened instantly. He couldn't wait to exchange for one.

As his consciousness confirmed it, a gray beam of light immediately flashed on the system page. Before Ryan could get used to the strong light, he felt his hand suddenly became heavier. He quickly lowered his head and saw a plastic bottle containing a gray pill, the size of his little finger had automatically appeared in his hand.

At the same time, the system also sent a deduction reminder.

[Purchase of a body-enhancing pill. Costs is 5 points]

“Damn. I still need eighty five points for my advancement. What a pitfall!” Ryan felt a pang of pain in his heart when he thought about losing five points in an instant.

After all, these points were directly related to whether he could successfully complete the breakthrough to the next star. Every point lost was a loss on him. But in order to make up for the consumed energy as quickly as possible, Ryan couldn't care much.

He quickly exited the system and put the round pill in his hand into his mouth. The pill melted in his mouth, emitting a stream of heat that quickly filled his body. As the heat spread rapidly throughout his limbs, he also felt a burst of warm, as if he was soaked in warm water.

Soon, the consumed physical energy was replenished.

Ryan moved his wrist and felt that his body seemed to be stronger than before. Not only was his physical strength replenished, but even the old illnesses left over from before seemed to be healing faster, and the speed of scarring was significantly increased!

"The body-enhancment pill is indeed a magical one!" Ryan was elated as he felt his limbs replenished with energy.

The system provided him with a channel to quickly restore his physical strength. Theoretically speaking, as long as he had enough points, he could obtain tens of times more resources than other deviants. It was simply a cheat code for the end of the world.

With this in mind, Ryan's heart became much more balanced. He smacked his lips, savoring the remaining taste of the pill. Suddenly he thought of something, and quickly restrained his expression, looking at the surrounding environment cautiously.

Fortunately, the people around him did not notice Ryan's little action.

When he turned around, he saw Yasmin squatting beside Lucas who was bitten, trying to stop his bleeding.

Lucas was the first unlucky guy to be attacked by zombies and the only one to be injured. His neck, shoulders, and even thighs were covered with bite marks left by zombies. The hideous wounds, the turned-out flesh, and the white bones exposed to the air were all kind of creepy.

At this time, he had stopped struggling and wailing, and even his breathing strength had become extremely weak. All signs indicated that this guy wouldn't live long.
