Apocalypse: Infinite Evolution Starts from Attribute Allocation

Chapter 22: The Side Effects Act Up Again

2051, January 1st.

The new batch of students entered the Evolution Camp full of anticipation and began six months of training.

As usual, Wang Ye headed to the Encampment No. 3.

There were three days before the rookie trial.

Today, he could already see many newcomers in Encampment No. 3.

At this point, the students of the ordinary classes were basically familiar with the connection to Moon Web and the beginner-level advanced evolution techniques.

He didn't see Yu Haitao but bumped into Huang Zirui instead.

Although Wang Ye had added him as a friend, he never took the initiative to contact him. There was no need to deliberately maintain a relationship.

"Do you want to go to Nanhu Park?" Huang Zirui's eyes were filled with excitement.

"No thanks," Wang Ye declined.

Nanhu Park was located on the west side of Encampment No. 3. It was a large park built by the lake and was named after its bottle-like shape.

There were a large number of fiend-level monsters in the park. It was the most suitable place for Evolvers to hunt and train near Encampment No. 3.

"Alright then," Huang Zirui didn't show any displeasure at being rejected. He said goodbye and left.

However, Wang Ye could still hear the disappointment in his voice. Perhaps in the latter's opinion, his strength was enough to fight a fiend-level monster.

Being overly cautious would cause one's strength to stagnate. However, efficiency and risk coexisted.

"I didn't encounter any fiend-level monsters yesterday, yet I still got 5.1 potential points. It's enough."

Wang Ye continued to hunt in the north.

Although he could quickly gain 5 potential points by going to Nanhu Park, he would also have to leave quickly.

With his current situation, there was no need for him to take such a big risk, especially since the rookie trial was coming.

...

At night, after having a deep interaction with Doctor Shu in the Evolver apartment, Wang Ye locked himself in the cultivation room.

[Do you wish to spend 10 potential points to upgrade the Basic Red Sun Evolution Technique?]

[Yes.]

His potential points decreased from 10.8 to 0.8.

Following this, he entered the space of consciousness and felt the improvement of the Red Sun Evolution Technique.

It was like the surging sun, and his body was filled with a fiery aura.

As the level of the Red Sun Evolution Technique increased, the genetic cells in his body also changed. His muscles were more refined, his skin was more resilient, and even his legs grew a centimeter longer.

The most obvious change came from his essence. It was vast and mighty, and his body seemed to be filled with energy as if it was a perpetual motion machine.

[Pre-genetic warrior → Level 1 genetic warrior]

His body had exceeded the critical point!

Every time the level of the Red Sun Evolution Technique increased, it would cause the body to transform.

The higher the level, the greater the transformation.

After the evolution, Wang Ye was refreshed.

With a thought, the interface appeared.

[6: Wang Ye]

[Life Level: Beginner Planet Sub-level Life]

[Cultivation System: Level 1 genetic warrior (16%), awakened ability user.]

[Cultivation Technique: Basic Red Sun Evolution Technique (proficient), Life Evolution Technique (Perfect)]

[Battle Technique: Basic Red Sun Saber Technique (practiced), Nine Forms of the Basic Saber Techniques (Limit break skill: Comprehensive Saber Technique)]

[Potential Points: 0.8]

"The physical threshold of a level 1 genetic warrior is 250, while the threshold of a level 2 genetic warrior is 500. 16%, which means my current physical fitness is around 290. From the practiced level of the Basic Red Sun Evolution Technique to the proficient level, the increase in physical fitness is around 50."

Wang Ye was already close to the critical point.

The breakthrough of the Red Sun Evolution Technique allowed him to become a level 1 genetic warrior.

"This is troublesome. The side effects are acting up again..."

The door to the cultivation room opened.

"Ah!"

Soon, the bed started to creak again.

The next day, in the wilderness, Wang Ye killed an ugly monster with decisive strikes.

[Mutated beast killed.]

[Potential points: 0.8→0.85.]]

What the hell? Why had the potential points he earned been halved?

Wang Ye was a little puzzled.

Could it be that the mutated beast had cut corners and its mutation was not complete?

Soon, after killing the second mutated beast, Wang Ye was certain that the potential points for killing mutated beasts had indeed decreased from 0.1 to 0.05.

"It should be due to the advancement from a pre-genetic warrior to a level 1 genetic warrior."

Wang Ye quickly understood.

As his strength increased, he should go hunt stronger fiend-level monsters now.

However, it was too dangerous to go to Nanhu Park all of a sudden.

"I'll go further north," Wang Ye made his decision.

Coincidentally, with the increase in the number of newcomers, the number of monsters was somewhat insufficient for the demand in his current hunting grounds.

Compared to Nanhu Park, which was densely populated with fiend-level monsters, the northern suburbs were much sparser. There would be more lone monsters, which was more suitable for him now.

Two hours later.

[Killed level 1 dog monster.]

[Potential points: 1.35→2.35.]]

His first fiend-level monster!

It was different from his previous fight with the fiend-level bison.

The monsters were both at level 1, but this fiend-level dog monster was slightly weaker.

Their strengths were different.

The fiend-level bison was strong and durable, so it was difficult to deal with.

The dog monster was agile and full of essence, which just so happened to be Wang Ye's strengths as well.

That being said, his victory was mostly because his strength had improved significantly compared to three days ago.

Another hour passed.

[Potential Points: 2.7 → 3.7.]

"It's confirmed then. The potential point for killing a low-level fiend-level monster is 1 point. The first bison gave me 1.5 points, most likely a reward for killing a higher-level monster."

Wang Ye roughly understood the pattern.

His potential points would be halved if he killed monsters of a lower level, standard if he killed monsters of the same level, and increased by 50% if he killed monsters of a higher level.

The night of January 3rd was a time all the rookies had trouble sleeping.

Tomorrow would be the rookie trial that everyone was looking at.

After passing the rookie trial, they would become true Evolvers!

Even if they took on a civilian post or became an ordinary collector in the gene park, their status would be different from before.

If they couldn't pass the rookie trial... What awaited them would be death.

"Hello? Big Brother!" Yu Haitao was sitting in front of his desk, video-calling, "I got it. The Flowing Light Combat Suit fits very well. It's simply amazing! Let me tell you a piece of good news, Big Brother. I've cultivated the Basic Armor Barbarian Evolution Technique to the practiced level!"

"I've reached the practiced level in seven days!"

"Even the teacher praised me as a genius, comparable to the elite classes' students!"

"I know, I know. I've been taking the vitality medicine and nutrient solutions on time. I just tested my body yesterday, and my score is 255! I'm already a true genetic warrior now. Aren't I awesome?"

"Wait for my good news tomorrow, Big Brother!"

After ending the video call, Yu Haitao clenched his fists.

He was full of confidence for tomorrow's rookie trial. Not only would he pass the trial with excellent results, but he would also take this good opportunity to pull out the thorn in his side, Wang Ye!

"47% evolution rate, body score 151."

Yu Haitao checked Wang Ye's information and sneered.

If one knew oneself and one's enemy, one will never be defeated.

In just seven days, even Wang Ye relied on his extreme talent to cultivate the advanced evolution technique to the practiced level, his physical fitness would at most be 200.

As far as he knew, Wang Ye had still been in the hospital three days ago. Then, he had gone to Encampment No. 3 every day.

Stupid!

The most important thing for a newbie was not to increase their battle experience with fiend-level monsters, but to become a true genetic warrior first!

"He's still wearing the Evolution Camp's rookie combat suit. I crush him in all aspects, including physical strength, equipment, and swordsmanship. What do you have to fight me? Tomorrow will be the day you die. However, I still have to be careful. What if this brat is hiding some trump card..."

Yu Haitao was still quite apprehensive. After all, Wang Ye had left a huge psychological trauma on him during the graduation exam.

...

Evolver apartment, Room 714.

In the cultivation room.

[Do you wish to spend 10 potential points to upgrade the Basic Red Sun Saber Technique?]

[Yes!]

Wang Ye carefully savored the improvement of his saber technique.

He fully comprehended the second move, Dawn Blade. Purely in terms of offensive power, this move was probably the strongest of the three moves.

If he met a fiend-level bison again, he was confident he could take it down in three slashes now.

His efficiency in hunting had increased over the past two days.

After breaking through and becoming a level 1 genetic warrior, his combat strength had increased. He could now hunt fiend-level monsters alone, and the chances of him being injured were much lower.

On average, he could gain 6 potential points every day.

When the rookie trial ended, it would almost be time to go to Nanhu Park.

However, he had to remove the thorn in his side first.

"Yu Haitao is probably thinking about how to deal with me."

Wang Ye brandished his Red Sun Saber. He now had a thorough grasp of the saber technique.

Tomorrow, he would avenge the original owner of this body and settle old grudges!
