19 Chapter 14: Super Exercise Method_1

Translator: 549690339

At night, in the quiet basement, Chen Yang was doing something incredibly agonizing.

No, rather, Right Hand was doing something to him that was profoundly painful.

Observing the frailty of the host body, Right Hand felt it needed to make some arrangements to avoid the host encountering mishaps during its dormant periods.

This was no joke, the fragility of this host body was such that amongst all the many civilizations across the galaxies it had traveled, it was almost in the bottom ten.

The universe is vast, almost boundless. In such an environment, various kinds of intelligent life naturally emerge, but ninety-nine percent of them are carbon-based.

There's a scientific inevitability to this. Carbon atoms can link four chemical bonds, in stark contrast to hydrogen atoms which can only link one. Furthermore, the bonds of carbon atoms are relatively flexible, contrasting with the rigid structure of silicon atoms. Many similar characteristics dictate that life is most likely to be comprised of carbon atoms.

Due to the similarities in their chemical properties, water should also be the solvent in the process of life. Therefore, when Right Hand crossed through a dimensional rift and arrived here, seeing that the surface of this blue planet was largely covered in water, it was overjoyed.

This was because the presence of water indicated the potential existence of carbon-based life, and thus severely injured as it was, it could recover by parasitizing.

Who would have figured that it would encounter an unexpected setback?

This resulted in the failure of the parasitic relationship, further damaging its already severely injured body, leading to its current miserable state.

However, what happened next did provide it some consolation. The civilization of this planet had entered the industrial age and even made some progress in aerospace technology. This was good news to it.

The only thing it wasn't satisfied with was, perhaps due to the overly premium condition of this planet, all the intelligent life forms here possessed extraordinarily fragile bodies.

If their bodies and organs stop exchanging gases with their environment for five minutes, they would faint.

If this process were to extend up to ten minutes, it would lead to brain death.

And let's not even get into how ridiculously inadequate they are in their sensory perception, nerve response, endurance, and explosive strength.

The most ridiculous thing was that it parasitized the most unfortunate individual of this pitiful species, truly a catastrophic stroke of luck.

To avoid this host from carelessly getting hit by a car, killed by someone, struck dead by a falling object, drowned, burned to death, killed by a virus, or insulted to death, Right Hand decided to increase the host's physical fitness in the shortest possible time.

For a creature like a human, if they want to improve their physical fitness, there is essentially only one method available: exercise, which only becomes effective after a long period of time.

It's unthinkable to improve a person's physical fitness in a short amount of time.

This is due to inherent factors within the human body. The enhancement of human physical fitness is derived from overcompensation. When humans exercise, their muscle fibers break. Through rest and recovery, they get stronger and grow larger than before, which is why exercise can increase muscle and improve physical fitness.

But human recovery takes time, and there are limits to what a human body can endure. Unrestrained, prolonged exercise is not possible. With the excessive secretion of lactic acid causing muscle soreness, not only would such exercise have limited effectiveness, but it would also lead to various hidden injuries.

So, exercise should be done in moderation and persisted over a long period of time.

However, this was not consistent with Right Hand's requirement. After spending several days exploring the human body, it gradually began to understand how the human body functioned and thus came up with a good strategy.

This method didn't involve Chen Yang having to do strenuous exercise, but only required him to lie down continuously consuming protein powder and glucose saline.

Then, Right Hand started to make Chen Yang's entire muscle structure squirm. Chen Yang's bare body was like it had earthworms buried from toe to chest and back muscles, undulating unpredictably, continuously stretching and contracting.

This phenomenon was terrifying!

You know, normal human exercise only targets certain body parts, and it's impossible to fully exercise every single muscle in the body.

However, under the parasitic influence of the Right Hand, this extraterrestrial creature, the impossible was gradually becoming possible.

The reason muscles produce a burn during exercise is due to insufficient energy supply, and the accumulation of lactic acid resulting from the anaerobic metabolism of glucose. So, the Right Hand took control over Chen Yang, and under the magical ability of this high-level extraterrestrial creature, it rapidly synthesized adenosine triphosphate to supply all the energy needed for muscle movement.

After the muscle fibers tore, it quickly gathered energy to heal itself, achieving in just an hour what would have taken months of regular training.

As for whether this process would cause trouble and pain for the host, the Right Hand had never considered it.

People often say that childbirth is extremely painful for women. Right now, Chen Yang was enduring such torment, tears and snot streaming down his face. He felt as though the pain could only be compared to giving birth to ten children all at once!

"Fuck you, fuck your sister, fuck your brother, fuck your whole eighteen generations of ancestors, remember this for me... Ah...!"

Profanity, endless profanity, but sadly, this couldn't stop the Right Hand's actions.

"Fuck you, I was wrong, I give up, please let me go... Ahhhhh... Fuck your whole eighteen generations of ancestors..."

No matter if Chen Yang threw tantrums or begged for mercy, the Right Hand would not stop.

Chen Yang's consciousness was on the verge of collapse, but because of the Right Hand's control, even if he was in extreme pain, he couldn't pass out. He could only stay awake and suffer through it all.

He just kept cursing the Right Hand non-stop, from its mother and father, to its sister and brother, and ancestors. When he ran out of epithets, he even started cursing Right Hand's home planet.

This was as pointless as cursing at the Earth, but the Right Hand was unfazed.

The basement was soundproofed perfectly. The hour-long screaming made a passing kitten stop for a while and listen, but it just walked away, confused.

An hour later, a limp Chen Yang was lying still on the floor, eyes glazed over like a dead fish, while the Right Hand was tapping away at the keyboard from five or six meters away.

It took another half an hour for Chen Yang to barely get up. Then, he looked at his muscles with incredulous eyes.

Eight-pack abs as hard as iron, an extremely firm chest, bulging arm muscles, and strong, robust thighs. Although he didn't look like a professional bodybuilder, his physique was breathtaking.

This attractiveness wasn't just about raw strength, but also the perfect combination of agility and explosive power.

The Right Hand quietly returned to its original state and went back to sleep, but Chen Yang couldn't sleep. His heart was filled with mixed emotions, a mixture of resentment and fear, yet at the same time, he felt an intense excitement rising from within him.

He could feel the immense power throughout his entire body. Just flexing a little caused his muscles and veins to bulge under his skin. A casual jump helped him leap 4.5 meters, far surpassing the 3.476 meters of the standing long jump world record.

Aside from the terrifying strength, Chen Yang could also feel an exceptional degree of coordination and agility. He moved his foot, did a couple of backward flips, and found it was as natural as breathing.

Finally, he did a handstand, balancing on the thumb, forefinger, and middle finger of his left hand. He did a hundred one-handed push-ups, and only a little sweat appeared on his forehead. He didn't feel tired at all.

Chen Yang was somewhat confused. First, he was parasitized by an extraterrestrial creature, then his body was altered by the same creature. With all that happened, could he still consider himself a human being of Earth?
