Doomsday Highway: I can be infinitely enhanced

[Top Human: Awakening]

Occupation: None

[Status: Healthy, Full]

[Skill: Basic Extraordinary Recovery]

[Anomaly: Unstable Rune Pistol]

[Positive Emotional Points: 4396]

[Negative Emotion Points: 2807]

The convoy traveled for five days through wind and snow, and Su Xing was busy during those five days.

With the help of extraordinary recovery, Su Xing finally completely recovered from his injury and ushered in his prime.

With his internal and external injuries completely healed, he felt unexpectedly good, a sense of unprecedented ease.

However, upon waking, he still bore the scars of being struck by lightning.

A pale purple, lightning-shaped scar, winding like a branch from the neck to the abdomen and back, exudes an unusual beauty.

If Su Xing is willing, he can spend several hundred emotion points to enhance the scar removal cream and remove the scar.

But there's no need for that.

Awakening requires this scar to remind oneself of the cruelty of the apocalypse.

Besides the recovery of status, the biggest change on the panel is that the prefix for awakening has changed from "elite human" to "top human".

Two words make all the difference.

Besides the "Basic Extraordinary Recovery" skill on the panel, the awakened power has been enhanced by about 3.8 times, reaching the peak level of modern humans.

This is equivalent to easily lifting an object weighing half a ton.

The awakened "speed gene" has been enhanced by about 1.2 times, reaching the top level, equivalent to a 100-meter dash in under 10 seconds.

However, since they haven't reached the extraordinary level, these two skills aren't yet eligible to be included in the panel.

Over the past five days, Su Xing has gotten quite a few emotional moments from the team.

Especially the scene that just took place on the bus, which brought Su Xing's positive emotional points to 4396 and his negative emotional points to nearly 3000.

Su Xing had already planned to use these emotional triggers.

"Strengthen power..."

As he awoke, a thought stirred within him, and a line of information appeared before his eyes.

[Current strength: Peak human potential, can be enhanced.]

[Enhancement Direction: Extraordinary Strength: Initial mastery of extraordinary power, possessing ten times the strength of an ordinary person, and a certain degree of improvement in bone and muscle density.]

[Requirement: 1000 positive emotion points.]

"Extraordinary power...ten times the power of an ordinary person!"

A faint excitement stirred within him as he awoke.

Although I have mastered the skill "Basic Extraordinary Recovery", "Extraordinary Power" is different.

After all, superhuman recovery can only be used to defend oneself, while superhuman power is an offensive ability that can significantly enhance the awakened person's combat effectiveness.

The original half-ton deadlift force was still achievable by humans.

However, the figure of one ton still makes countless strongmen throughout history hesitate, reaching a truly "inhuman" level.

"strengthen!"

[In progress, 3396 points of positive emotion remaining...]

[Reinforcement Countdown: 05:59:59]

【05:59:58……】

A six-hour countdown appeared before Su Xing's eyes.

He can afford to wait this long.

Taking advantage of this time, Su Xing planned to further enhance the external objects.

A thought flickered in his mind, and a virtual Jeep model appeared before his eyes.

"Reinforced snow tires to enhance their anti-skid capabilities..."

Su Xing described the direction of reinforcement.

[Strengthening direction is being determined...]

[Snow tire reinforcement: "DIY anti-skid tires" have been provided, consisting of 12 kg of rubber, polyester fiber, and nylon.]

[This can cost 876 points of negative emotion to enhance snow tires, increasing rear tire traction and stability on slippery surfaces by 70%, but reducing driving ability on normal roads by 10%.]

[Should we enhance it?]

"876 points? That's considerably lower than expected."

Su Xing's eyes brightened slightly. He remembered that a few days ago, reinforcing snow tires required 2000 negative emotion points.

It seems that Fangyuan improved the tire tread pattern, reducing costs.

As for the 12 kilograms of rubber, polyester, and other materials, that's the weight of one tire.

There were still four tires piled up in the trunk after I woke up, which freed up some space.

"strengthen!"

[Intensifying, 1931 points of negative emotion remaining...]

[Reinforcement Countdown: 11:59:59]

【11:59:58……】

Seeing the snow tires being reinforced, Su Xing felt much more at ease.

For five days, the convoy traveled westward into the territory of Shunchang City.

The temperature has dropped sharply, approaching minus thirty degrees Celsius.

The roads are even more slippery and difficult to walk on after the snow.

Even though Fang Yuan helped him modify the tires, Su Xing still felt uneasy.

Just yesterday, the bus nearly skidded while driving on the mountain road, and the passengers and the bus almost plunged off a cliff.

At eight o'clock in the morning, after the sky had brightened, the convoy set off and continued westward.

Yesterday, the convoy drove all day on the mountain road and has now ventured deep into the hilly areas of western Shunchang City.

Before the apocalypse, Shunchang City was considered relatively poor in Anhui Province, especially in the western mountains, where many villages and towns were built in the low-lying valleys.

Some villages haven't even had roads built yet; the land is still muddy yellow soil, and after rain or snow, every step you take results in a small puddle.

Leaving the highway and driving on muddy ground, the melted snow water seeped into the muddy soil.

The tires were uneven, one shallow and one deep, like a limping old man, making Su Xing feel like he was on a pirate ship while sitting in the car.

Around noon, Su Xing, who had been jostled around all the way, finally couldn't take it anymore and picked up the walkie-talkie, cursing:

"Captain Hu! Can't you find a proper path to take?"

"I almost threw up my breakfast in the car!"

[Hu Dong's negative emotions +60]

There was a three-second silence on the other end of the walkie-talkie, followed by a barrage of greetings:

"Can you just shut up a bit?"

"Do you think I wanted this? I threw up everything I ate this morning..."

"What can you do? If you can't manage, go walk on the highway alone. You might get carried away by an anomaly and die without even knowing how!"

[Hu Dong's negative emotions +43]

[Positive Emotions in Fangyuan +23]

Fang Yuan's suppressed laughter came through the walkie-talkie.

Su Xing didn't say anything more. He knew that Hu Dong had been forced to choose such a difficult path.

Su Xing wouldn't feel at ease without uttering a few curses.

"Wow, I even got over a hundred emotion points. This is a good deal..."

Su Xing yawned, preparing to take a nap.

The convoy drove slowly on muddy roads all day.

Shortly after 2 p.m., the enhancement of extraordinary power was completed.

Su Xing woke up with a start from her dream and clearly noticed the changes in her body.

"So this is extraordinary power...?"

Su Xing looked at his hands and felt as if endless power was surging within him. This feeling of abundance made him feel happy.

"Ten times the strength of an ordinary person, which means a force exceeding one ton!"

"Goodness gracious, even someone as legendary as Xiang Yu, who was said to be able to lift a cauldron... I could probably take him down with a single punch, right?"

Su Xing thought to himself that he had officially entered the ranks of the one-ton superhuman.

Even Fang Yuan, who is a mechanic, is not as strong as him in terms of pure physical strength.

[Skills: Basic Extraordinary Recovery, Basic Extraordinary Strength]

In the panel, a new skill has been added for Awakening.

"Strength and recovery have reached extraordinary levels; next up is speed..."

Su Xing felt hopeful; being able to run fast was a true life-saving skill in the apocalypse.

However, before gaining superhuman speed, Su Xing needs to elevate his speed genes to the peak of human potential.

[Current speed gene: Top-tier, can be enhanced.]

[Spend 800 points to enhance positive emotions by 80%, raising your speed gene to the peak of human potential. Enhance now?]

"strengthen!"
