Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Because He Fang and the others had much heavier loads than Lin Shen, their speed and endurance turned out to be quite similar when they started running.

Several people had already pushed their speed to the limit, and yet, they still couldn't shake off Lin Shen.

Watching Lin Shen, who kept gritting his teeth to keep up, He Fang and the others had a slightly odd expression on their faces.

After completing ten laps, almost everyone was nearly exhausted. Some bent at the waist, their hands pressing down on their trembling thighs.

Others lay straight on the ground, gasping for air.

Since they were all Mutators, their internal organs were incredibly robust, and there was no need to worry about lying on the ground immediately after intense exercise causing any harm to their bodies.

At this moment, Instructor Mu came out, clapping his hands to gather everyone. "Get up, pair up and start stretching."

He Fang and the others had no choice but to come over and pair up to start stretching. He Fang was with Lin Shen, guiding him on how to stretch, while he whispered, "Little Junior Brother, are you related to Instructor Mu?"

"No," Lin Shen was somewhat puzzled, not understanding why He Fang would ask such a question.

"Then why would he go easy on you?" He Fang was very suspicious, thinking that Lin Shen's backpack was also tampered with.

For a newcomer who had just arrived and was carrying a backpack, to have completed the entire course was quite astonishing.

"Go easy?" Lin Shen didn't understand what He Fang meant.

He Fang pointed at his own backpack and then at Lin Shen's, implying that there was something wrong with Lin Shen's backpack.

Lin Shen misunderstood, reaching out to lift He Fang's backpack and immediately feeling the difference.

He Fang's backpack was obviously much heavier than his, and not knowing that He Fang was at Crystal Base Level, which meant the backpacks designed for Crystal Base Level Mutators were much heavier than those for Alloy Level, he thought that Instructor Mu really did give him a break by giving him a lighter backpack.

"Uncle Mu appears quite stern in front of others, but deep down, he still cares about me," Lin Shen thought he had wrongly accused Instructor Mu before, as it seemed he had been looking after him in secret.

Feeling that he couldn't let Instructor Mu look bad, Lin Shen grabbed He Fang's backpack, pulled it over to himself, and said, "Instructor Mu might have taken the wrong one, let me borrow this and run a few more laps."

Lin Shen felt that in order to save Instructor Mu's face, the best way was to prove that even without any special treatment, he had the strength to complete the training.

Before He Fang could say anything, Lin Shen had already put on He Fang's backpack.

Once the backpack was on, Lin Shen immediately felt as if a small mountain was pressing down on his back.

Luckily, Lin Shen had recently been to Realm King Planet to kill mutant creatures frequently and became accustomed to the strong gravity there, which made carrying the load feel a bit easier compared to an average person.

Moreover, he had a strength attribute of 31, without which, he would have had no chance of moving with the backpack meant for Crystal Base Level Mutators.

Another Mutator at a lower Alloy Level might not even be able to lift the backpack.

Even though it felt incredibly heavy, to keep Instructor Mu from losing face, Lin Shen still gritted his teeth and started running.

He Fang was completely stunned. When he mentioned Instructor Mu going easy on Lin Shen, he thought Instructor Mu had tampered with Lin Shen's backpack so that the weight didn't meet the standard.

Who could have imagined that Lin Shen would start running with his backpack, which was meant for Crystal Base Level use, something that an ordinary Alloy Level Mutator wouldn't even be able to lift?

It wasn't just He Fang; Ling Luo, Lv Ying, and the Tian Brothers were also staring blankly as Lin Shen ran on the training field, having forgotten even to stretch.

Instructor Mu had been keeping an eye on Lin Shen and had witnessed this scene, a glint of admiration in his eye: "What a Lin Family lad, his talent seems to be even better than Xiangdong's, he must be carefully crafted."

Lin Shen was unaware of his mistake—in fact, most people wouldn't have thought that in such a dilapidated training camp with only five trainees, all of them would be Crystal Base.

Lin Shen had even thought that He Fang and the others were at Alloy Level like himself.

"These senior brothers are really something, being able to carry such a dreadful weight and run so far—I underestimated Asura Training Camp," Lin Shen thought as he ran, "It is indeed the place where my fourth brother honed his skills; even in decline, it still has its merits."

His speed could be compared to an old lady crossing the street, his legs trembling as he shuffled along.

Evolution Theory was already at work, although its effects were not very evident, it could only slowly exert its influence.

Lin Shen gritted his teeth and continued running, that's just the Lin Family spirit. If you treat me well, I must not let you down.

As Lin Shen ran, he felt as if his muscles were about to tear apart, as if acid was flowing inside them—the discomfort was indescribable.

But he still persevered, fortunately Evolution Theory kept strengthening and mutating his body to withstand this level of pressure.

Evolution Theory truly was a peculiar Evolution Skill, providing limited enhancement to surrounding attributes, or it might be said to offer no substantial attribute increase.

But it could increase various resistances—resistance to poison, high temperatures, low temperatures, dizziness, and so on, and now, it seemed to be able to combat fatigue as well.

However, the enhancement effect against fatigue was progressing very slowly, and the improvement to Lin Shen's body was gradual.

In theory, as long as Lin Shen could withstand it, Evolution Theory could help him endure for a long time.

Of course, with such an overload that had already surpassed his own limits, it was possible that Lin Shen would give in before Evolution Theory could sufficiently strengthen his body.

For now, Lin Shen could only bite the bullet and keep going, running as long as he could, no matter what, he couldn't let down Instructor Mu's face.

Lin Shen felt he was running in an ugly manner, his pace barely faster than a walk, even slower than some quick walkers—somewhat embarrassing.

Having already lost so much face, he was determined to complete those ten laps nonetheless, to at least have something to show for his efforts.

He thought this way, unaware that the five senior brothers had already been numbed by the spectacle.

They had heard from Instructor Mu that Lin Shen was at Alloy Level, yet here he was running with a load meant for Crystal Base Level. Had it not been for He Fang having just carried that pack, they would surely have thought Lin Shen's pack was fake.

As if realizing something, Lv Ying went over to pick up the pack that Lin Shen had been carrying, then said to He Fang and the others, "The weight is correct, Instructor Mu didn't go easy."

"Do you even need to say it?" He Fang said dismissively, knowing without a doubt that Lin Shen hadn't cheated.

"Our little junior brother really has something special, how on earth did he manage this? I don't see him using any skills," said Ling Luo, his gaze fixed on Lin Shen, a trace of surprise in his eyes.

"All we can say is that Xiangdong's brother is strong and different from ordinary people," He Fang praised.

Instructor Mu was the most surprised of all, he hadn't expected Lin Shen to last so long; no one had ever done such a thing before, not even during the time when Lin Xiangdong was there, when the Asura Training Camp was brimming with talents, but he had never seen such a monster.
