Amidst the silent wait, scorching ultraviolet rays from the blazing sun poured onto Wang Ye's skin.
The climate in July remains exceptionally hot, with the perceived temperature exceeding at least forty degrees.
Even soone like Wang Ye, with imnse resistance to heat and cold, feels a bit of discomfort when facing direct sunlight.
But fortunately, Wang Ye's cooling ability is now excellent, and after a mont of adaptation, he adjusted back.
In the sunlight, countless visible floating dust microorganisms in the air transford into a palm-wide vortex continuously inhaled by Wang Ye.
If at this mont one could observe Wang Ye's body cells under an optical microscope, they would clearly see, as the external sunlight aggressively penetrates, countless cells rapidly swelling to the point of decay and then rebirth as new, tougher cells. These cells greedily devour the energy given by the sunlight, constantly exhausting and renewing at several dozen tis faster than usual.
After a long ti.
Wang Ye suddenly opened his eyes, his dark blue pupils bursting with lightning-like brilliance. But this glimr vanished in an instant, lasting only 5 milliseconds, after which only dim pupils remained.
"This feeling... bathing in sunlight actually increased my tabolic rate?"
Wang Ye displayed a look of shock.
He tentatively grasped the stainless steel window ledge with his palm and applied so force.
Crack—
Only the piercing sound of shattering was heard as Wang Ye released his hand, discovering that the sturdy stainless steel window ledge was directly crushed into powder and fragnts by his grip, "clattering" onto the floor tiles.
Yet those sharp fragnts did not cause any damage to the skin on his palm.
"It seems the strength has increased... no, it's not the strength that's increased, but the energy stored within the cells has increased, the tabolism has accelerated, resulting in more muscle fibers being recruited by the nerves. So this ability indirectly improved both my strength and endurance capabilities. Additionally, after cell enhancent, my defense power seems to have increased as well, and the tenfold increase in tabolic rate should also simultaneously boost my healing ability, but I'm unsure of the exact extent of these improvents; I need to find ti to test it accurately." Wang Ye couldn't help but grin, these enhancents are undoubtedly fantastic news for him.
"Judging from this, after my Cooking Skill generated traits, I indeed acquired the ability to devour radiant energy." Wang Ye frowned slightly, rubbing his chin, carefully recalling the sensation of absorbing energy while basking in sunlight, muttering to himself: "Devouring floating microorganisms in the air can yield about 0.002 Calories of energy per second. Using body cells to absorb radiation released by the fixed star can yield about 5 Calories of energy per second... and this is from the sunlight shining through the window's gap. If exposed to full body sunlight outside, the energy obtained per second would certainly be greater, even several tis more."
The reason these figures seem small is because, with Wang Ye's current attributes, he can't fully digest all the energy. Therefore, during absorption, a large portion of the energy still escapes through the pores.
But it's certainly much better than swallowing food and excreting feces.
Moreover,
This 5 Calories per second energy, when accumulated, is quite astonishing. Calculated per minute, it amounts to 300 Calories per minute. Calculated per hour, it's 18,000 Calories per hour. Calculated per day, that's 432,000 Calories per day. Adding the absorption of energy through breathing and the radiation escaping from electronic machinery, the total becos even more terrifying.
With Wang Ye's daily resting tabolic rate of 50,000 Calories, even solely relying on absorbed radiation for heat would be enough for survival. The issue is that not everywhere has sunlight exposure; without direct sunlight, the heat he can extract from the air would drastically decrease.
Thus, in the absence of sunlight, Wang Ye still needs to rely on food supplentation.
"But at least I don't need to eat hundreds of pounds of food daily; just going out to sunbathe can replenish the basic energy consumption, also saving the trouble of excretion, making it much more convenient."
Wang Ye drew the curtains, quickly finishing the al on the table, then put on his running shoes.
He planned to take advantage of the bright sunlight now to go to the riverside for a run, brush up on his Rushing Skill Level, and simultaneously test what chemical reactions occur during high-intensity exercise while undergoing full-body radiation exposure.

Fifteen minutes later,
Wang Ye jogged all the way to Longjiang Park.
After warming up slightly on the track, he began to jog.
He first cruised at an even pace of 3 minutes, then slowly accelerated.
But this speed already seems incredibly fast to others.
Such an eye-catching running pace naturally drew the attention of those around him.
"Wow, that guy's running is like a blur!"
"Running a long distance at sprinting speed, such an extraordinary man!"
"The last ti I saw such a remarkable person was watching Qi Refining Brother's competition."
"Hey, wait, that guy seems to be Qi Refining Brother, right?"
"Qi Refining Brother?! I'm going to get his autograph!"
"Damn, why did he disappear in an instant!?"
Wang Ye didn't pay attention to the surrounding gazes at this mont, and instead focused on sensing his own changes. To his astonishnt, he discovered that every muscle, every drop of blood, and every organ within him began to overclock the mont the fixed star radiation touched his body, just like parched, cracked earth suddenly being saturated by the descending rain.
