16 Strengthening Again, Another Level Of The King of Mercenaries

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Chen Ran suddenly sped up and shot out like an arrow. The wind on the field blew his clothes.

Its speed was almost twice as fast as before.

Also, this speed was not Chen Ran's limit. He sped up because he did not want to be suppressed by Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie. Moreover, the next round would be a long-distance running contest, so he did not use his maximum speed. Otherwise, he would be even more monstrous.

Chen Ran's figure kept flashing faster and faster, quickly attracting Xiao Yunjie's attention.

Xiao Yunjie saw Chen Ran's figure suddenly dashed past him.

"F*ck, this Fresh Meat has caught up. He's so fast? He's crazy."

"Poyue…"

Before Xiao Yunjie could finish his sentence, Yan Poyue roared, "Those who are one step faster than others are geniuses. Those who are two steps faster are lunatics. Let's go crazy together."

"F*ck… They're all crazy."

Xiao Yunjie had a helpless look on his face because he saw that Yan Poyue had already sped up. Needless to say, he must have been provoked by Chen Ran.

"Crazy! Two lunatics!"

Xiao Yunjie could only grit his teeth and speed up.

As time passed, Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie ran down in circles. By now, they could not remember how many laps they had run. They only felt as if their feet were not their own.

At this moment, their faces were covered in sweat. Their clothes were already drenched, as if they had just been fished out of the water.

When the sweat on his body dripped down, it formed a water line on the ground.

Whoosh! Whoosh! 

Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie were still holding on and had not reached their limits. 

Both of them were experts at running. During the process of running, they knew how to constantly adjust their breathing and use their stamina wisely.

With ordinary people's speed and physical fitness, it would not be a problem for them to run until dark. However, the key was that there was a crazy Chen Ran at the scene who kept giving them pressure. The situation was different.

After accelerating, Chen Ran maintained a crazy speed and ran all the way.

"If we want to follow them, we have to fight…"

Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie stared at Chen Ran's flickering figure, not daring to slow down at all.

Unknowingly, he had run five more laps.

At this moment, Xiao Yunjie's breathing was not so even. He seemed to be heaving. 

"No, if this continues, people will die." 

Xiao Yunjie panted heavily. He felt that he could barely lift his feet. In the end, he could not help but shout at Chen Ran.

"F*ck, that model, no, bro, can you slow down?"

When Yan Poyue heard this, he growled, "Cut the crap."

Yan Poyue's eyes were fixed on Chen Ran in front of him, his face full of unwillingness to admit defeat.

Previously, when he was registering, he had seen Chen Ran's combat skills. Last time, this guy could almost knock Xiao Yunjie down with just a few steps back. That move looked very casual, but it was intentional.

This guy was quite good at fighting. He might be slightly better than Xiao Yunjie, but that did not mean anything.

If it were him, he could easily resolve it with his killing technique. However, it was different this time. Chen Ran could still maintain his running state after running for so long.

What did this mean? It meant that this guy's stamina was not inferior to his at all. It might even be better!

This was the first time Yan Poyue felt pressure from Chen Ran.

"If my combat power is 9,000, this guy might exceed 9,000!"

Yan Poyue's eyes were filled with the flames of competition. He had been very strong since he was young. He would not admit defeat so easily.

Chen Ran, who had been running wildly, naturally did not care about Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie's thoughts. He only knew that he had to suppress them and run!

"Isn't it just to see my potential? Then continue running!"

Chen Ran had no intention of slowing down at all. His legs sped up.

Unknowingly, Chen Ran had run many laps. At this moment, if one looked closely, one would realize that he was already as relaxed as before.

Before accelerating, he was indeed just coping, so it was very easy for him to run. His face was not red, and he was not out of breath. However, it was different now. Running continuously consumed a lot of stamina. 

At this point, Chen Ran started to struggle. His entire body was drenched in sweat, and his breathing was a little strenuous. His legs seemed to be tied with a thousand pounds of lead, and every raise of his legs seemed to consume a lot of stamina.

After all, he only started to really run after running those 10 laps. Moreover, his speed was twice that of an ordinary person. Even with Chen Ran's 3.1 physique, he could not take it.

"Could it be that I have almost reached my limit?"

Chen Ran felt the pressure of breathing. He kept adjusting his breathing and tried his best to maintain his speed.

At this moment, Chen Ran glanced at Yan Poyue, who was chasing after him, and could not help but be secretly shocked.

"This guy is indeed talented. The aura of the protagonist is different."

"If I didn't have the system's help, I really wouldn't have been able to outrun that guy. However, since it has already begun, let's continue…"

Chen Ran also wanted to see where his limit was.

After running for a long time, a familiar system voice suddenly sounded in Chen Ran's ear.

"Host, there's still one more chance to strengthen. Do you want to use it?"

"How could I pass it up?"

Chen Ran thought of the precious opportunity to strengthen himself. His eyes lit up and he roared, "Enhance!"

Swoosh! Swoosh!

In an instant, Chen Ran immediately felt that his muscles and bones seemed to be increasing in strength.

Immediately, the fatigue in his body began to decrease. When he lifted his feet, it was very easy. That feeling was as if he had just started running.

"The effect of strengthening is indeed different." Chen Ran grinned.

"Ding… Host's enhancement is complete. All attributes +0.1."

An attribute list automatically popped up in his mind.

Name: Chen Ran

Level 2

Body Attributes:

Innate Ability: 3.2 (Ordinary Person: 1) 

Comprehension: 3.2 (Normal Person: 1)

Vitality: 3.2 (Normal Person: 1)

Strength: 3.2 (Normal Person: 1)

Speed: 3.2 (Normal Person: 1)

Talent Skills: Combat Talent (S-level), Military Camp Life Skill Pack (S-level)

Check-in Points: 0/300

"All attributes increased by 0.1, reaching 3.2."

Chen Ran was overjoyed. 

"Don't underestimate it. It only increased by 0.1. This is equivalent to taking another step forward on the path of the King of Mercenaries."

Under normal circumstances, after the human body reached its limit, it was very difficult to break through the next limit.

Usually, it would take more effort than breaking through the previous limit. It was possible to break through ten times or even dozens of times. However, Chen Ran was different. He had the help of the system and there was no limit. In any case, once his check-in points were enough, he could strengthen and break through the limit!

However, after the enhancement, he was a little dissatisfied. He felt a little uncomfortable because his entire body was covered in sweat, and his clothes were sticking to his body.

Swoosh!

Chen Ran unbuttoned his shirt and took off his shirt. Then, he took off his inner shirt and threw it on the grass beside him.
