In this evolution, Jack Clark s four major attributes have each increased by 100 points. The overall enhancement in every regard is utterly terrifying.

He feels that even if he doesn’t use his True Strength, standard bullets would be unable to pierce his skin due to its density, and his increase in strength is even more terrifying.

Squeak! Squeak!

Jack Clark s hand is gripping the huge water tank on the rooftop. As he slightly pulls, the metal frame of over ten tons begins to creak from rhe deforming metal.

Feeling rhe terrifying strength bursting from the muscles in his arm, Jack Clark releases his grip satisfyingly: “This is just pure arm strength, and I’ve reached over four thousand kilograms already.”

The physique attribute becomes stronger the more it’s pushed in the later stages, each increase making it stronger than the last. Like now, there’s almost a doubling of strength between two hundred points and three hundred points.

After a simple test with close to double the strength, Jack Clark turns his attention to the data of the avatar below.

The name has changed to Hexagonal Sword Armored Beast, and the level has increased to intermediate Mutated Beast. This level division is slightly different from human classification of the Mutated Beast.

Jack Clark feels that the current Sword Armored Beast’s level among Mutated Beasts should be around the start of Level 4.

Taking into account the previous lower level, it seems the attribute page has broken Mutated Beasts into lower, intermediate, and higher levels, which correspond to Levels 1 to 9.

Of course, even though the level is in the early stages of Level 4, the note about the Mutated Beast King means that the strength of the Sword Armor Beast after evolution greatly exceeds its own level.

Glossing over this information, Jack Clark s attention lands on the third talent, ‘Agility.

Storing energy, bursting with thirty times the normal speed in an instant. Jack Clark was somewhat surprised; he did not expect the talent he gained this time to not be a hundred-fold increase.

Jack Clark thoughtfully: “It seems that even if it’s a talent, speed is still affected by air resistance and gravity.”

Strength Talent comes from potent muscle fibers and dense bones throughout the body, while Defense comes from special hard external body armor. They are both bodily talents.

But speed isn’t.

Even though the speed talent after evolution mainly comes from the ability to store energy and to have terrifying joint muscle elasticity, it is still affected by the external world after a burst.

Or maybe it’s because this talent comes from the physical body so it is still subjected to physical rules.

If the evolution awakened similar to the rules, or perhaps transcendent speed talents, they should then be able to disregard physical rules.

After looking through all the data carefully, Jack Clark then transfers to the Sword Armor Beast’s perspective

In the pitch-dark cave, a pair of black eyes adorned with golden vertical pupils slowly open as Jack Clark is unable to see the physical changes due to lack of light, so he slightly exerts the limbs’ strength.

Boom!

The riverbank slope explodes greatly, with several tons of dirt being hurled into the air as if a missile had hit it. The water splashes everywhere, and the earth shakes as smoke and dust fill the air.

From amidst the cloud of smoke and dust, a pitch-black Mutated Beast appears by the riverside.

After this evolution, the Sword Armor Beast’s body has become more robust and proportionate. It has grown from three meters to four meters in length, with the additional meter being the tail.

The formerly short tail now takes up half of the body and becomes more slender towards the end, giving it an agile feel. Especially at its tip, a ten-centimeter long, black bone spur as sharp as a spear or sword is formed.

His body is still covered with layers of armor-like exoskeleton that gives off a metallic sheen from the black, although it isn’t as thick as before, the defense remains formidable.

Simultaneously, the limbs also curve more elegantly robust, and the muscles in the lower body and hindlegs are bulkier. It seems like it could stand up just by exerting a little force.

Meanwhile, the row of obtuse angles on its back have become elongated and sharp, spanning from its brain to its tail, like over ten long black swords.

Aside from that, its head has become more 3-dimensional and sturdy, with prominent eyebrow bones. The upper and lower jaw edges have well-defined angles as if it was a dragon’s head surrounded by the black bones.

On both sides, the three pairs of red feather horns are redder with a light red glow, like a jade artifact. The ice-cold gaze from its flaxen vertical pupils exudes an imposing manner unspokenly.

This instant, the Sword Armor Beast gives off a brutal ferocious aura, as if it is a terrifying Unique Beast born to slaughter.

Roar! The Sword Armor Beast opens its mouth slightly and emits a tiger-like roar. The sound is deep and solid.

Boom!

The dirt explodes fiercely, leaving four large holes in the ground. With the terrifying counteracting force, the Sword Armor Beast vanishes instantly, leaving behind only an afterimage.

Thump! Water splashes on the river¹ s surface hundreds of meters away, with tons of water shoved upwards as if from a fountain. It doesn’t start to fall until it reaches over ten meters in height.

Under the river s surface, the Sword Armor Beast shoots forward like a dark shadow at an astonishing speed.

Many fish didn’t even have the chance to react before they were swallowed by its fierce mouth, leaving only a tail or half a head floating in the water.

It took the Heavy Armor Beast a long time to travel the over one hundred kilometers distance from the estuary to the tributary convergence, but the evolved Sword Armor Beast took just over half an hour.

That’s equivalent to a speed of around one hundred fifty kilometers per hour, even faster than the fastest fish in the ocean.

Of course, this comparison is before mutation. After mutation, many oceanic fishes’ speed becomes terrifying. Like that knife fish he encountered before..
