Originally, sustaining at the pace for a long ti would make him sowhat tired.
Now, it felt even less exerting than jogging.
Keep in mind this speed was already approaching the limit of a second-level athlete's 100-ter sprint.
Which ant at this speed, one could finish 100 ters in twelve seconds.
Yet Wang Ye could maintain this speed and run dozens of kiloters almost without stopping.
However, Wang Ye could sense that this speed consud energy drastically. Because the pressure from this speed caused imnse consumption of the body, constantly wearing down muscles and bones every mont. If running a full marathon at this speed without Fixed Star radiation exposure, Wang Ye would definitely experience hypoglycemia or even faint on the spot.
After running at the pace for half an hour, Wang Ye took a detour into a public restroom, avoiding sunlight exposure.
But soon he felt his body's functions rapidly decline.
Although he didn't fall into a hypoglycemic crisis, he knew it was difficult to exert the peak abilities he had earlier, needing to stand under the Sun again to recover that level of athletic performance.
"So, I must ensure I only exert my extre abilities under Fixed Star radiation, otherwise the danger of energy deficiency is very real," Wang Ye muttered softly. "But if I just move at low intensity, the energy absorbed by re breathing is enough to sustain life."
Simultaneously, Wang Ye also noticed that while his cells were greedily absorbing external energy, his basal tabolic rate was rapidly increasing, from the original 50,000 calories to 100,000 calories, effectively doubling. Yet he felt his tabolic rate still hadn't reached its limit. It was like a top-tier gaming computer playing a simple ga, only using a small portion of its configuration.
This situation, in the jargon of electronics, describes performance excess or performance spillover. It ans the system's hardware resources et the minimum configuration needed for current operations, but there are still a large amount of hardware resources not being fully utilized.
Thinking about it,
Wang Ye had almost always existed in a state of performance excess previously.
Because rely relying on food for energy wasn't enough for him to exert his extre abilities.
It's like having a fully configured computer without plugging in the power.
So previously, Wang Ye felt his evolution speed had noticeably slowed.
But actually, it wasn't that evolution slowed down, rather his digestive organs couldn't handle more intense consumption. To ensure survival, his body instinctively reduced muscle and cardiopulmonary output. Similar to a laptop automatically activating low power-saving mode after its battery drops to 10%.
Now, having the ability to absorb Fixed Star radiation is equivalent to plugging in a "power source," eting the most basic requirents for utilizing all hardware resources, naturally reverting to high-performance mode. To fully exert all performance, a sufficiently large software is required.
"Even the pace can only invoke this much potential.
What other ans can evoke more potential?"
Wang Ye returned to a park bench, seated in a well-lit area, started mulling over.
Typically humans tap into potential in tis of crisis.
Because humans can trigger adrenaline when injured, and adrenaline increases heart rate and blood pressure, dilates bronchi, and raises blood sugar levels, temporarily boosting tabolism, enhancing neural recruitnt ability and hand-eye coordination—commonly known as activating fight mode. Even an ordinary person without professional training might counterattack a trained combat athlete when adrenaline surges.
"So is it necessary to harm the body to forcibly unleash potential?"
Thinking this, Wang Ye stood up again.
Plan to fetch Hidden Weapons Pouch and conduct Golden Bell Shield training at the abandoned building.
Test if his healing ability has truly improved.
··························
··························
About half an hour later,
Wang Ye carried the Hidden Weapons Pouch, as per usual, avoided the surveillance hanging on streetlights, Rapid Stepped several kiloters, arriving beneath the abandoned building.
He intentionally selected a spot where sunlight reached.
Took out a brand new angle grinder, equipped with a custom steel blade.
Intended to start grinding his skin.
Vroom—
As the angle grinder started, it imdiately emitted a piercing "whirring" sound,
Just approaching the cutting blade by hand, one could feel a strong gust.
Wang Ye unbuttoned without fear, pressed it against his chest.
Screech!!!
Visibly, sparks burst forth, scattering onto the ground.
Wang Ye's chest gradually showed a white mark from the cutting.
This white mark deepened, skin beca increasingly thin from friction.
About half a minute later, the skin was finally cut open.
Flowing with crimson blood.
Wang Ye squinted and said:
"Cut a dozen extra seconds compared to usual, defense has improved."
Yet before Wang Ye thought much, in an instant, a more intense radiation flooded into his cells, he distinctly felt the speed of cell turnover increase fifty-fold.
His body temperature rapidly soared to forty-five degrees, pores continuously emitted visible vapor.
And the bloody cut on his chest began healing at a visible speed. Soon after ten seconds, dead flesh and flowing blood turned black and necrotic, "plopping" down onto the ground.
From the cut rapidly grew new white skin.
"tabolic ability and healing ability enhanced fifty tis?"
Wang Ye touched the already healed skin, shock evident in his eyes.
Indeed, only when injured do bodily functions get maximized.
Typically, most people when severely injured or after surgery, no matter eating rich ats and rice soup for nourishnt, the body quickly becos thin and light due to injury imposing a heavy burden, increasing tabolic consumption and reducing body fat.
Similarly, when viruses invade the body during injury, body temperature quickly rises to 37-40 degrees, activating ergency mode, increasing tabolism rate and the killing power of immune cells to swiftly eliminate viruses within to prevent further damage. This is also dically known as fever or hyperthermia.
And Wang Ye's current situation is akin to hyperthermia.
He instinctively touched his forehead.
Finding his forehead now incredibly hot.
Estimated to be over forty-five degrees.
But this outrageous temperature only lasted briefly for two minutes.
Then returned to the original 37-38 degrees.
Cell's radiation absorption speed also gradually slowed down.
"This healing speed should at least five to ten tis improve Golden Bell Shield's efficiency leveling." Wang Ye took out several boxes of steel nails from the pouch.
With this efficiency leveling, within roughly five days, his Golden Bell Shield could reach max skill level. If all goes well, he should undoubtedly upgrade Golden Bell Shield to Extraordinary Skills before climbing Mount Everest, gaining the ability to completely defend against large-caliber firearm bullets.
