At that moment, Luke felt weak all over, as if he had lost all his strength. But at the same time, he felt as if he were floating.
He entered the bathroom and began to rinse himself.
After a few hours of torment, his whole body was covered in sweat and other strange things, making him itchy all over.
The sweat contained a lot of impurities that had been expelled from his body during the strengthening. His skin seemed to have shed a layer of impurities that had condensed together and slid down layer by layer when the hot water washed over him.
The shower lasted forty minutes. In the end, Luke came out feeling refreshed. He put on thick pajamas and sat down in the backyard.
One word: awesome!
If he had to use an idiom, it could only be said that he had been reborn.
His skin had been pretty good before. Now, all the scars and acne were gone, and almost all his thick body hair had fallen off.
His facial features were also more defined. Before, his face was only above 60, but now it was 70. He was a qualified handsome man.
His hair had been greatly stimulated during the strengthening just now. It had gone from a crew cut to medium length, which cleared away some of his worries.
He could become stronger, but he couldn't become bald, not even if it was just a hairline.
Drinking his green tea, Luke looked at the vast sky in the backyard and felt wonderful.
He looked at his stats panel.
Luke (alias Luke Coulson)
Strength: 40
Dexterity: 20
Mental Strength: 15
He had already added the extra point to his Mental Strength in advance.
The process of adding Mental Strength for the first time wasn't very wonderful, but the effect was obvious.
To put it in a more metaphysical way, it was as if his head had been blessed, and he was much more agile.
He knew that, firstly, his Mental Strength was still very low. Adding one point would increase it by more than 8%.
Secondly, his increasingly powerful body required a stronger Mental Strength to control.
Otherwise, this powerful body wouldn't be able to unleash its full combat ability.
Of course, that wasn't the main point right now. The main point was Strength: 40.
With a smile on his face, Luke's credit points were instantly deducted by 10,000.
The next moment, he couldn't help but frown. "Oh! Shxt！ Again? "
He felt a strong numbness all over his body, as if he were recovering from an injury.
Gritting his teeth, Luke quickly realized what was going on.
The strengthening just now still brought some damage to his body.
If he didn't deal with it, his strong body would recover in a day or two. However, he had just learned Carlo's Elementary Self-Healing.
Almost instantly, [Elementary Self-Healing] activated automatically and began to repair the small injuries on his body.
These injuries were not serious, and it felt like ants crawling on the injured parts. Moreover, they came and went quickly, disappearing in less than five minutes.
Because these injuries were very small, Elementary Self-Healing could be said to be very fast. However, his left arm, which had been feeling numb and sluggish, continued to itch.
Last time when he was in Wolfkyle, his left upper arm, which had been shattered by the monster, started to heal itself crazily.
Luke was delighted. After waiting for so long, his left arm was finally back to normal!
The next moment, he felt hungry again.
He got up helplessly and went back into the house to eat and drink.
It seemed that Elementary Self-Healing also consumed a lot of energy from the body. He should just stay in the house.
Luke also cleaned up the trash in the house and cut his new hair short. However, it wasn't a crew cut, but a slightly longer hairstyle.
Agile and strong enough, it wasn't hard for him to cut his own hair using the hairstyles he had found online.
It was past four in the afternoon when Selina returned. She sized up Luke, who had taken on a new look.
Luke simply answered her questions perfunctorily and diverted her attention to the upcoming vacation.
They went to the airport in Luke's car.
At 5: 30 pm, the two boarded the plane and appeared at the Aurora Hotel in Las Vegas at 7 pm.
The hotel had already booked them, and had even sent a car to pick them up.
This time, Luke had booked a luxury business suite, which cost three thousand dollars a night.
Selina couldn't have been more excited. She ran around the room and laughed as she adjusted the facilities.
Hearing that Luke wanted to get some rest, she went to the deluxe bathroom to take a bath.
Ignoring her, Luke went straight to bed.
After his Strength reached 40, his body was still being modified.
He didn't need to test it. He could tell that his strength had increased again.
The actual effect of doubling his Strength coefficient had increased again.
With 40 points of Strength, it was no longer just twice the effect. Now, it was at least a notch stronger.
When his Strength reached 20, he had already observed and tested his body in many ways.
The results showed that the huge improvement at this point would be a quarter of the total effect in the first few hours, and half of the effect would be achieved in twenty-four hours. It would take ten days for the improvement to be completed.
The further he went, the weaker and smaller the improvement would be. His body was gradually adapting to the tremendous increase in strength and physique.
For example, if his Strength was 20, the actual effect coefficient of his Strength would increase from 1 to 1.25 within five hours, and the actual effect would be 25.
In twenty-four hours, his Strength coefficient would increase to 1.5, and the actual effect would be 30.
In ten days, his Strength coefficient would reach 2, and the actual effect would be 40.
So, Luke decided to rest for the night and take action the next morning.
But before he went to bed, he called Greyson to see if they could meet the next day.
Old Greyson was surprised to receive Luke's call, but he still agreed to their visit.
Greyson was very busy with work, and had run into an interesting case recently. So, he didn't invite Greyson to his house, but to the forensics center.
Luke said a few polite words before he hung up.
Thinking that he would be going to the forensics center in Las Vegas, the holy land of CSI in America, tomorrow, he was rather excited.
After a day of all sorts of things, Luke soon fell asleep after everything had been arranged.
Luke woke up at four in the morning.
After he got up and washed up, he didn't wake Selina, who was in the other room, because she was sleeping soundly.
He had confirmed that with his own eyes.
There was no telling if Selina had been too excited last night, but she had fallen asleep on the bed without even closing the door.
Also, Luke had gone to bed very early last night. She didn't know what had gotten into her, but she had fallen asleep in nothing but her underwear and a blanket.
Beautiful things were meant for people to enjoy in peace.
