Chapter 200: 59. Monday’s Interlude

As Yan Huan shifted his curious gaze toward certain words in the ethereal text, they flashed with golden light, bursting forth with even more explanation.

[When the efficiency of exercise significantly improves, the speed of muscle fiber tearing and recombining will also dramatically increase. This will bring about more intense pain, higher nutritional requirements, etc.]

Reading the text above, Yan Huan roughly understood what this effect meant.

The principle behind muscle growth caused by regular exercise is essentially through the tearing of muscle fibers during workouts, which during their recombination, become tougher and stronger, thereby promoting muscle growth.

Now this process had been sped up, inherently making the pain of being torn more severe than usual.

Then there was the addition of a pain doubling curse.

Yan Huan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, a bead of cold sweat slid down his cheek unnoticed.

This is probably going to hurt a bit.jpg

Moreover, this combination actually echoed back and forth; the accelerated speed of muscle fiber tearing and recombining could easily lead to inadequate fiber strength and severe damage.

But the "Naked Clothing" skill perfectly compensated for this.

As long as he exercised without clothes, his Body Attributes would gain a 100% boost that could keep up with the efficiency, which could be said to be quite considerate.

"Meow?"

The pet cat Miao looked at Yan Huan with a puzzled expression, seemingly noticing his hesitation.

But soon, Yan Huan made up his mind,

"This curse will get weaker as the muscles grow, after all, muscles can’t grow indefinitely, there is always a limit. Suffer in the beginning, it will get better later."

He stood up, took off his top, and walked in front of the bathroom mirror.

Actually, his body was not considered thin, after all, he often exercised through part-time jobs, and didn’t have any bad habits.

Of course, he wasn’t muscular either.

Yan Huan pinched his somewhat flabby muscles, as if he could hear the eager anticipation for them to "grow bigger and stronger."

...

Then, he pulled down his pajamas and walked back to the bedside.

Choosing this not only would make his body healthier but also increase strength and stamina.

Can’t say for sure it will help with the modifier, but making oneself stronger and more muscular isn’t a bad thing.

And speaking of dealing with the modifier, the remaining two skills...

[Flexible Finger Skill],[Demon Chef].

The former was purely for laughs, the benefit also seemed somewhat ridiculous.

Apart from unlocking more loser CGs, Yan Huan couldn’t think of any other use for the time being.

Demon Chef was actually of some interest to Yan Huan; he wasn’t proficient in cooking, but who in life doesn’t cook their own meals?

Why not make them taste better if possible?

It’s just that slight curse...

Eating three meals a day, if every meal is cooked by oneself, that’s three curses a day, nine in three days.

Then keep eating and accumulating, the curse could proliferate endlessly within the body.

Thinking of this, Yan Huan ultimately chose the third reward.

"Buzz!"

As the black sphere burst and poured into Yan Huan’s body, he initially felt his legs, which hadn’t amounted to much feeling, suddenly turn a bit sore.

He frowned, quickly thinking of the reason,

"Could it be, since I walked all day today, it also counted as leg exercise?"

Reasonable.

But soon, he vaguely felt his body not only become slightly lighter but also filled with strength as his fingers stretched.

...

Ah, that’s right.

Yan Huan looked at the short sleeves and shorts of his pajamas, quickly realizing something.

As long as the uncovered part of his body exceeded a certain ratio, the "Naked Clothing" effect would activate.

What if he took off even more?

With that thought, Yan Huan immediately started to experiment, he undid the pajamas on his body and threw them behind him.

The pajamas landed on the bed, covering Miao who sat there primly, making it struggle and let out a "meow" from under the cloth.

"Sorry Miao, I’m experimenting with the ’Naked Clothing’ effect."

He stretched out his palm, yet still felt dissatisfied, so he took off the remaining pieces.

"Meow~"

Miao had just climbed out from under the pajamas when it saw something it shouldn’t have and immediately straightened its tail, scooting back a distance into the pajamas.

"Wow, this feeling is really fierce."

Yan Huan excitedly swung his fists a few times, a whooshing sound followed his fists in mid-air.

And it wasn’t just strength, attributes like stamina and vitality were also enhanced.

Yan Huan now had a strong urge to run wild by the seaside like Sun Wukong.

Can’t imagine, after some time of training, how exaggerated the effect of the enhanced muscles becoming bigger and stronger would be...

Yan Huan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and after a period of trying, put his underwear back on.

The moment the clothes were back on, the light and agile state Yan Huan had enjoyed was significantly diminished.

?

Yan Huan opened his mouth, feeling it out carefully, and felt that he had lost about 30% of the boost.

But the thing is, he was a boxer brief guy, not one for boxer shorts.

How much fabric could there be, and how much could it cover?

To lose so much?

This thing wasn’t calculated based on the quantity of fabric!?

...

Disbelieving, Yan Huan once again took off the pants, and instantly, the last piece of the terrifying boost’s puzzle was restored.

His brain, which had been enhanced by the Intelligence Fragment, quickly started working, and like being infected by Tong Yingying, his eyes brightened.
