This wasn't an upgrade to survive.
This was an upgrade to destroy.
But again there was no change in the stats itself, despite me feeling much stronger than I should be at 50 points.
I stretched my neck, feeling the new power flowing through every inch of me.
My body had evolved to handle the sheer force my muscles could now produce. My bones, joints, and tendons had reinforced themselves, preventing my body from tearing itself apart under my own strength.
I clenched my fist again and punched the ground lightly. The solid black rock shattered like fragile glass.
A chuckle escaped me.
I felt....unstoppable.
But I knew this was only the beginning.
I turned toward the next lava pool, my body practically begging for another fight.
And I moved forward.
This time, three orcs emerged from the magma pool, all level 24.
I cracked my neck and smiled.
This time, I wasn't here to test my body. I wanted to check my damage.
