For example, if his cell originally only has one mitochondria for energy synthesis, then after overclocking, it will become ten or even a hundred!
In addition, there are many other adjustments, all prioritizing combat efficiency.
Furthermore, if Li Wei were to push his overclocking ability to its limits, he could even alter things at the genetic level.
Overclocking is merely a byproduct of his mastery of abilities over the years, but even so, it has provided him with tremendous assistance and is one of his most powerful derivative abilities.
In theory, if this ability were to reach its peak, Li Wei could evolve into a "god" in any biological field, and that's no exaggeration.
In this magical world of reincarnation, he saw hope for transcending limits. At least, in this modified world, he knew very well what he had gained.
If word got out, it would shock everyone in the academy.
Li Wei often lamented about this:
Human potential is truly incredible.
Li Wei is proud to be a member of the human race.
In contrast, others who knew Li Wei were saddened that he was actually human...
This cannot be denied, because they have already checked the DNA.
And not just once...
The editor asked me to change the book title.
It seems the editor doesn't like the title and is demanding a change... Unfortunately...
Updates will be in the evening. If you see a different book title... please check the cover to identify the book! orz
If you have any great book titles... please be sure to tell the author!
Then, chapters with fewer than 100 words couldn't be published.
The author is thinking about whether there's anything else to say.
There doesn't seem to be anything else to ramble on about.
Let's see if we've reached the word count.
Chapter 18 If you disagree, then draw your sword!
"I'll show you that the limits of humanity are limitless," Li Wei said calmly. "In this world, there are weak races, but within each race, there are necessarily powerful individuals."
"The way of all things is balance, and breaking this balance... is power!"
After saying that, Li Wei appeared in front of Rize Kamishiro in an instant and threw a punch. After overclocking by 200% and activating Gear 2, Li Wei's strength increased several times over.
This puts a great strain on his body, so Li Wei often chooses to finish the fight quickly after using these abilities.
If it were an S-class ghoul like Jason, even with the power of the plot, he would be helpless against Li Wei's current speed.
But Rize Kamishiro is an SS-rank ghoul!
Therefore, although Li Wei's attack was fast, it was not so fast that Rize Kamishiro could not react in time.
Rize Kamishiro grabbed Li Wei's fist, then flung him away with a backhand. Her powerful physical abilities and arm strength were astonishing; the blow sent Li Wei's blood surging.
Fortunately, Li Wei changed his strategy from attack to defense before being attacked, otherwise he would have broken several ribs.
"So this is an SS-rank character? As expected, he is much stronger than an S-rank character."
Whenever there is a difference in levels, the higher the level, the greater the gap. In other words, the higher the level, the more obvious the difference in strength between them.
If the difference between A-grade and S-grade is ten, then the difference between S-grade and SS-grade is twenty, thirty, or even more.
With the added power of the plot, this gap becomes even wider.
"Huh? Didn't you want to show me the power of humanity?"
Rize Kamishiro tilted her head and walked towards Li Wei step by step, her khaki on her back swaying from time to time, as if showing off her power.
"I've already said it, humans, these inferior creatures, are food for us ghouls."
"Want to try struggling?" Rize Kamishiro placed her index finger to her bloodied lips and smiled slightly, looking like a cat playing with a mouse.
"struggle?"
Li Wei shook his head and said truthfully, "To be honest, if I had met you before entering this world, at most I would have fought you to a draw, but more likely I would have had to run away, otherwise I would have lost control of myself..."
"However, just as I expected, the strength of the SS-rank ghouls is almost the same as I estimated."
For some reason, Li Wei's nonchalant tone made Li Shi irritated, and the unease that had been suppressed in her heart suddenly resurfaced.
"Ugh... Die, trash!" Rize Kamishiro shouted, and four kagune attacked Li Wei at an even faster speed than before.
"Overclocking adjustment...500%!"
"Enhancement - Second Gear!"
With a bang, Li Wei disappeared from the spot.
"Hey, hey, hey, fighting and killing hurts people's feelings. Girl, let's talk about life, our ideals, and our children's future."
Li Wei abandoned his previous seriousness and spoke in a cheerful tone, his right hand already holding a knife to Rize Kamishiro's neck.
"When?"
Rize Kamishiro was startled and immediately jumped back several times to get away from Li Wei.
"Damn it!" Rize Kamishiro gritted her teeth, her face contorted with anger.
"Hey girl, be careful. Don't turn into a katakara! You know, 500% improvement is already the limit for me in this state. If you become a half-katakara, I'll be in trouble. Subduing you will be a real headache. What if I accidentally get you pregnant?"
Li Wei jumped up and down, fearing that Rize Kamishiro might turn into a half-Kakuja in a moment of excitement, and kindly tried to persuade her.
Little did she know, Rize Kamishiro, who hadn't originally intended to have such thoughts, was instead provoked...
"Are you looking down on us ghouls?!" Rize Kamishiro roared, her face contorted as her kagune began to envelop her body under Li Wei's provocation.
Li Wei sighed helplessly, thinking he was about to face the half-Kakuja Rize Kamishiro, when an unexpected event occurred.
A black mist suddenly appeared within their range, obscuring all vision.
"This black mist..."
Li Wei frowned slightly. He realized that this black fog was no ordinary fog; in addition to blocking his vision, it also blocked all his senses.
"is that so……"
Li Wei pondered for a moment, recalling the requirements of his main quest. Then, he quickly saw a dense array of eerie black monsters appearing before him, resembling mist, their forms ethereal and unpredictable.
"A mutant?"
In Li Wei's side quests, he killed hundreds of mutants, and Li Wei had long guessed when he would encounter them.
"A modified version of the world..."
“There must be more than just this much unexpected stuff,” Li Wei chuckled softly, his suppressed personality no longer concealed. His icy gaze swept over the dozens, even hundreds, of mutants, and his tone was chilling as he said, “So, please, let me have some fun!”
These mutants are mostly A-level mutants, and there are even... twenty or thirty S-level and SS-level mutants!
With so many S-class or higher mutants, even an SS-class character like Rize Kamishiro would have a hard time escaping unscathed, yet Li Wei continued to emanate an increasingly powerful aura.
If Rize Kamishiro were here, she would definitely have noticed that this pressure was even stronger than hers. Her intuition was right; Li Wei hadn't used his full strength all along.
At least, since entering this world, Li Wei has never had a chance to unleash his full power, nor has anyone been qualified to force him to use his full strength.
"There are quite a lot of them," Li Wei said with a faint smile.
"Then, draw your sword."
But what if I don't have a knife?
Li Wei used his right hand as a knife and his left hand as a scabbard, simulating the act of drawing a sword.
His fingernails grew rapidly, five centimeters, ten centimeters, half a meter... When his five fingers came together, they were like sharp daggers. His left hand, reinforced by the Six Styles Iron Block, was as hard as steel, which was called a sheath.
"Draw your sword and kill!"
The sword was drawn instantly and struck!
An invisible wave swept outwards, like a gentle breeze, and at least a hundred of the densely packed mutants vanished under this attack...
P.S.: The entire building is without internet, and I don't know when it will be fixed! This chapter was uploaded by the author using their mobile hotspot.
After saying all that, what I really want to say is—
Please give me some data usage credit as consolation! (orz)
Chapter Nineteen: Actually, these things look impressive, but you can learn them with a little practice.
"You ants, how dare you stand in my way!" Li Wei said coldly.
Li Wei's overclocking adjustments are not a panacea.
As the name suggests, this is a power beyond what the body can withstand, requiring an extremely high level of mental strength to support it. As a result, Li Wei's personality inevitably becomes colder when he uses this ability, because it is generated for the purpose of fighting.
It's almost to the point of schizophrenia.
This situation occurred especially frequently when Li Wei was focused on fighting, which is why he was the same as before when fighting Rize Kamishiro, but now he didn't seem nervous at all.
It's often said that a man is very attractive when he's focused, and this is pretty much the same principle.
Therefore, Li Wei's logic and response are more rigorous. Although this is a minor flaw, it also gives Li Wei a more powerful combat ability.
"Six Styles - Shave!"
Li Wei has now mastered the Six Styles of Shaving to an unimaginable degree. At this moment, he appears as if he has countless clones, appearing almost simultaneously in front of all the mutants.
"Six Styles: Storm Storm!"
Just like countless fractions simultaneously unleashing the Six Styles of Tempest Kick, a dense, blade-like hurricane erupted almost instantly within a radius of tens of meters around the scene.
The Six Styles: Storm Storm is a violent field-clearing skill formed by many storm kicks and wind blades.
The entire area looked as if it had been slashed by sharp swords, with scratches everywhere. The shortest scratches were three or four meters long, and some were even as long as seven or eight meters, or nearly ten meters.
What does nearly ten meters mean? That's almost the height of a three-story building.
After this attack, only twenty or thirty S-rank or higher mutants survived. Some unlucky S-rank mutants even disappeared, and most were in a half-crippled state. Only the seven SS-rank mutants were left intact.
"Intruders... Counterattack... Annihilation..." One of the largest mutant black mists slowly uttered a few words.
"Intruder?" Li Wei sneered. "You mean me? Hmph, so what if I am an intruder? In this world, strength equals power!"
"Storm Kick - Spear Break!"
Li Wei unleashed a flurry of powerful kicks at the largest mutant in front of him.
These storm kicks did not immediately unleash wind blades. Instead, a few seconds later, all the compressed storms erupted in an instant. Moreover, under Li Wei's terrifying control, these slashing wind blades were contained within a range of less than one meter, making the wind blade strikes more dense, like a spear strike.
However, the leader of the mutants was clearly not easy to bully, and his reaction was not as slow as expected. He was just caught off guard by Li Wei.
Now that it was prepared, it directly formed layers upon layers of black mist in front of it. Although these black mists did not seem to have any defensive power, Li Wei's Tempest Kick - Spear Break Slash could not break through them instantly. Instead, they were continuously neutralized, and the black mists also dissipated.
After Li Wei finished his attack, the mutant leader still had some black mist left.
"As expected, it's not that simple?" Li Wei muttered to himself, without a trace of worry in his voice.
To put it simply, the cheat code is already on, so just go for it.
Li Wei, who overclocks and tweaks, is just that confident, just that rich... and just as capricious.
"The warm-up is over now..." Li Wei said casually, cracking his neck.
Whether or not they heard Li Wei's words, all the mutants underwent a distorted transformation. What were originally ethereal black mists now turned into all sorts of ferocious beasts.
"Has it turned into a human form?" Li Wei saw that the leader of the mutants was different from the other mutants. It had transformed into a human-like form with sharp, knife-like fingernails that were half a meter long, and sharp protrusions on its elbows.
Not only that, its lower body is also like a werewolf, but its fur is sharper, and it has a jet-black tail covered with chilling barbs.
"Is everything about lethality the primary focus...?"
Li Wei analyzed.
The humanoid mutant roared, and the other beastly aliens responded simultaneously, their deafening roars echoing throughout the entire area.
Li Wei immediately felt that his condition had been weakened.
"A debuff?" Li Wei frowned slightly. To be honest, he hadn't developed a similar ability yet.
