Over the course of the week, thanks to the philosophical burning of his comrades and the earnest teachings of Mr. Owen, as well as his inexplicably evolved mind, his learning progress accelerated.
Before his condition suddenly worsened, he had just completed the second half of the fourth-grade curriculum and scored over ninety-five points in all subjects in the final exam, passing with ease.
When he first heard that the passing mark in this world was ninety-five points, Chen Feng did not understand, and expressed dissatisfaction in his heart and mouth, but his body obediently accepted the setting.
If it weren’t for this illness, he had planned to finish the fifth and sixth-grade curriculum in one go and challenge the daunting graduation exam for primary school seniors.
Now his plan had been disrupted.
It had been so long since he had been sick that he hadn’t even experienced a cold, so he never expected that becoming ill would bring him down so hard.
Before passing out, Chen Feng’s last words were like this:
“Cough, help me up, I can still fight. Quick, give me that fifth-grade textbook on cosmic physics. I can make a comeback! Cough, cough!”
After coughing up two pools of black blood, he was unconscious for three whole days.
Coughing, fever, coughing up blood, organ failure, heart stopping and restarting…
This repeated many times.
Various advanced medical treatments, including molecular therapy, atomic therapy, and nano-atomic reshaping robots, were applied by the Black Bear Training Base’s medical team.
Apart from the ultimate method of using a large atomic instrument to reconstruct the physical body, almost all advanced medical treatments were employed.
Completely reconstructing the physical body is the ultimate method when there is no other choice, but it has serious and far-reaching consequences, as it involves brain transplantation and even thought transfer.
Even with today’s technological level, scientists and medical professionals cannot perfectly perform thought transfer.
Theoretically, it is impossible to achieve.
In the ward, Harrison Clark slowly opened his eyes, and all he saw were white walls and white curtains.
He realized where he was.
I m sorry, how long have I been unconscious?”
He asked the person in full protective gear with their back turned to him.
The person was startled, “You’re awake?”
Harrison Clark spread his hands, “Do I not look awake?”
The person hesitated for a moment, then pulled the alarm.
For the next eight hours, dozens of people came and went, examining Harrison Clark over and over, and ensuring that he had recovered; they all marveled at his recovery.
Through conversations with these people, Harrison Clark figured out what was going on.
His illness was nothing other than S Bacteria infection.
This was simply baffling.
Although S Bacteria is still ubiquitous, no one has been infected with it for over four hundred years.
Since the successful development of a vaccine, most people can acquire antibodies while in the womb.
Even if there are exceptions, who do not inherit antibodies, or babies born through artificial cultivation, they will also be vaccinated early and produce antibodies.
Therefore, Harrison Clark’s infection has caused a great shock.
During the days he was unconscious, everything about him had been thoroughly investigated.
His background was clean and clear of any issues.
Through their interactions with him, they believed him to be slightly lazy, but overall, a decent person.
He was also successfully found to have antibodies when he was first born, and theoretically, he should not be at risk of S Bacteria infection again.
But he fell victim nonetheless.
There’s only one explanation: for some unknown reason, he became the first person since the 26th century to suddenly lose his antibodies and become inexplicably infected with S Bacteria.
Fortunately, his gene development level is high, approaching 32%, which makes his immune system and physique exceptionally strong. With the help of various new treatment methods, he regained his strength in just three days and his body function recovered well. By tonight, he would be fully recovered and discharged from the hospital.
“Congratulations, Harrison Clark, you’re all right now.”
The medical staff handed Harrison Clark an old-fashioned health certificate made by an atomic instrument and asked him to hold it.
This was a document that a very small number of survivors received after recovering when the S Bacteria was rampant worldwide.
Harrison Clark took it with a puzzled smile, “It has a real sense of history.” The medical staff chuckled, “Yeah, this thing hasn’t been used for hundreds of years.”
It seemed to evoke some memories in him, as a glint of nostalgia shone in the corner of his eye.
Not long after walking out of the medical room, Harrison Clark was stopped by Daniel Thompson and others, who took him out for a feast to celebrate his recovery.
By the time he returned to his dormitory, it was nine o’clock at night. He did a self-check with his personal medical system to ensure that everything was fine.
Seeing the number 34-37% in the gene awakening column of the data panel, he was stunned.
What happened?
Wasn’t 1 only at 31.81% three days ago?
How did I reach 34-37% after struggling on the sickbed for three days?
Why did it increase so much?
The higher the gene awakening level, the harder it is to improve, and the changes in his body made him feel even more baffling.lt took him a long time to figure out the reason behind it all.
According to 31st-century calculations, the standard human awakening level in the 21st century was 25%.
When he last traveled here, after a millennium of development, humans had undergone some self-evolution, experienced James Wright’s James Amino Acid invention, and Watson Gesslaf’s gene modification, bringing the human gene awakening level close to 30%.
Harrison Clark himself had completed a second awakening, reaching a staggering 31.77% data, unparalleled in his time.
However, in this millennium-long timeline, humanity did not have James Amino Acid or gene modification, yet the average human awakening level easily surpassed the 30% threshold.
Harrison Clark hadn’t realized the peculiarity before.
Now he understood.
This was the “gift” given to the survivors by the S Bacteria Antibody.
The S Bacteria would slightly influence the simpler cognition of other mammals, making them slightly more aggressive and active, with a moderate increase in physical abilities.
But human thinking was too complex to be affected.
The way S Bacteria affected living organisms was not through direct interference, but by promoting the production of corresponding antibodies within them.
This antibody itself could somewhat increase the gene awakening level, leading to the current situation.
As for himself, the moment he traveled here, his body was completely inherited from the past.
Therefore, the energy that caused him to travel back in time, on some level,
had reconstructed his body after a millennium.
Thus, he did not have any S Bacteria Antibodies in his body.
Compared to others, he came in with a 31.77%, which was above average.
As he got infected, his immune system began to fight back and produce antibodies, increasing his awakening level gradually.
Three days ago, he tested himself and found that his level was 31.81% because he had been fighting against the S Bacteria since the moment he arrived here getting both hurt and benefit.
The gradual increase in learning efficiency also stemmed from this.
Now that he had recovered, he became the only person among modern humans to possess natural antibodies acquired from fighting the S Bacteria within their body.
His improvement rate and ratio were exceptionally high, finally reaching 3437%.
His awakening level had exploded.
Harrison Clark logged onto the public network and did a search.
The highest gene awakening level currently publicly disclosed by the World Government was 34.11%.
The owner was a top military soldier.
This person was still far behind Harrison Clark.
As he searched for the data, the official data automatically updated.
“Highest human gene awakening level, 34-37%. Owner’s identity: Unknown.”
The public network instantly exploded.
In an instant, various forums and social networks were filled with heated discussions about this matter.
Everyone wanted to know who this incredible person was and what they were doing.
Some even tearfully exclaimed, “Have you ever seen or imagined this scene? I have always said that humans have no limits!”
“I beg for the 37th-ranked god to appear, let us lesser beings worship you!”
“Don’t worry, the big shot will definitely make a name for himself sooner or later, by then, we can all follow him and charge.”
“That’s right!”
I have just gained a bit more confidence in this war.”
“I have gained two units.”
“I gained eight!”
Harrison Clark casually scanned these messages, clenched his fist, and slowly stood up from the sofa.
Although he did not want to be self-aggrandizing and wanted to stay low-profile, he had to face the facts.
The unrivaled super soldier Harrison Clark, who had left all others in the dust had returned!
And this time, he had a complete explosion of intellectual and physical abilities.
Wait, all of you just wait for me!
The junior high school graduation exam!
I will crush you!
Morrowind Individual Combat System?
That must also be mine!
“Harrison Clark, come to my office,” a voice said.
Just as his blood was boiling, Nora Camp’s voice came through on his communicator.
He looked up at the clock on the wall.
It was nine thirty in the evening now.
What could the general want from me at this hour?
