Chapter 126: 125 All-around Overlimit Drive

[Overlimit Drive: Through honing and familiarizing yourself with your body, you've mastered the method of exerting power beyond its limits.From now on, you can maximize your body's output power, using up to 30% more stamina to cause up to 150% actual effect in all physical-related judgments; you also recover your physical condition faster, using 50% more "action reserve" to convert to stamina and doubling the recovery speed, possessing the ability to actively maintain your condition, with conversion and recovery rates equal; and you're more efficient when training any ability requiring bodily coordination, such as: improving "Close Combat Specialization", efficiency increases by 20%, improving "Agile Weapon Specialization", efficiency increases by 20%...]

...an all-around skill that's hard to imagine!

Battle, recovery, growth...

An all-around enhancement of abilities, truly deserving of the massive experience invested back and forth.

Utter surprise.

With the specialization now a part of him, Bai E could feel the explosive power stirring within, eager to burst forth.

With the same attributes as before, his maximum strength had risen directly by 50% after receiving the specialization boost!

This was a multiplicative calculation at the end, formidable beyond imagination.

His stats... had improved again.

Bai E, who had just acquired a new specialization, showed no signs of being conceited. Overlimit Drive wasn't the end; the purpose of Advanced Physical Training was to enhance physical attributes and push them to their limits.

The acquisition of the specialization was just an incidental outcome of the process.

Continue training!

Task completed, and without the completion notification on the panel, Bai E could only rely on the feeling in his body to maintain the sensation.

Training is tedious, requiring focus and dedication every day, every minute, every second.

If you're perfunctory with it, it will be perfunctory with you.

[In intense exercise, you've pushed beyond your limits, Physical +0.1, Reflex +0.1.]

...

"Finished training?" Helen's demeanor had calmed quite a bit when she saw the entering Bai E.

When she no longer cared so much, her state of mind also stopped fluctuating so easily.

Letting go of the obsession, the world felt wide and vast.

"Mm..." Bai E nodded in response.

Continuous good news brought about an inner joy that was hard to contain; a bright light shone from his face.

"?" Helen, who was in the middle of putting down her equipment, paused slightly, her gaze turning back to the stoic warrior.

Perhaps it was just an illusion, but she always felt that he seemed... particularly confident today.

This confidence was like sweet nectar flowing effortlessly from within.

Yet, a close scrutiny made the impact seem fleeting, like a flash. Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

An illusion?

Helen somewhat absentmindedly removed the various sensors from Bai E, while subconsciously greeting him, "Today might be my last day staying in the military camp. There are quite a few things waiting for me to deal with back in the inner city."

"Mm," was the only response Bai E gave, seemingly indifferent.

Noticing the somewhat stiff atmosphere, Helen ran her fingers through the curls by her ears and smiled gently, "Train well, your superiors all think highly of you. Tonight, you will have a pleasant evening."

"Understood."

"Hold on a moment." After collecting the sensors, Helen turned gracefully to go back to her workbench, her voice following from behind, "I'll tell you the final analysis, hoping it might help with your training..."

After two days of familiarity, Helen had become quite adept at analyzing such data.

The sounds of Helen typing at her keyboard occasionally echoed in the white laboratory, as time passed in a silent wait.

"You're much more stable now, it seems that your body is gradually getting accustomed to this excessive exertion beyond the norm..."

"In these two days, I've carefully analyzed the differences between your training method and the standard one, and I've found that maintaining a perfect harmony between the rhythm of your body's motion and your breathing is extremely difficult; it's a unique training method belonging to you, and it would be very difficult to generalize..."

[You are participating in the creation of Knowledge - Advanced Physical Training Version 3.0, current progress 75%...]

"Therefore, even though you're now familiar with this training method, still pay attention not to get distracted during your training. Compared to the regular training method conducted by the other soldiers, yours requires more focus, every action of your body needs to be controlled..."

"Even if your body has memorized that feeling, it remains the same. It is counter to human instinct and requires continuous control through willpower. A moment's relaxation, and it will surely backlash!"

Gazing at the artificial warrior in front of her, eyes out of focus and face filled with confusion, Helen seemed unperturbed, aware that knowledge has its thresholds.

The mission of them, as researchers, lay precisely there: to turn those abstruse and difficult understandings into practical guidelines for others to follow; that was their responsibility. Explore new worlds at мѵʟ

Everyone in this world bears responsibilities from birth...

With her long legs crossed, Helen stood up gracefully, concluding her host duties at last.

"I will report to your superiors about your full cooperation in perfecting the advanced physical training program, hence... you may make any request of them that is not too excessive, and I believe they will agree. It was a pleasure working with you during this time..."

Her back to the soft white light, the rays penetrating her translucent skin and reaching into Bai E's eyes, "Soldier Bai E, goodbye."

Bai E saluted respectfully, "Goodbye, Scholar Helen."

...

The military camp was abuzz with activity at night, adorned with lights and a burning bonfire.

Everyone was adept at forgetting.

One must always look forward, concerned only with the impact on the bigger picture should life be lost; in this era, everyone was accustomed to sacrifice.

What kept mankind going was not the bonds of affection with loved ones, but the mere fact of "being alive".

And since "being alive" was so tough, people occasionally needed some encouragement from others to get their spirits up once again.

Before all the warriors, Carlos's voice thundered with perennial vigor.

"...Now, let us pay our highest respects to this hero!"

Drinks were spilled into the sky, reflecting the wavering light of the fire.

Standing straight on the stage, Bai E basked in the warmest gazes of everyone present.

Rose brought strong alcohol, Mashati grilled kebabs, and Stone clumsily tried to assist...

Song Ying sat with arms crossed in a corner away from the bonfire, You's face flushed as he was cajoled into drinking by the big man, and Tiger watched everything with a contented smile.

That night, he got drunk... the stars fell into his eyes.

Amidst the haziness, it seemed only a distant voice echoed ethereally—
