To match with the carrying power, both the brain reaction index and physical index took on the calculated value.
His brain reaction index was 19. Far exceeding the minimum value of 10 for a First Level warrior, no wonder he didn't waste the daily high-intensity hour of ping pong during his study years, playing with elderly gents in the park without much competition, known as the Elder's Woe. People who are good at ping pong generally have fast reactions.
But his Physical Comprehensive Index was only 5 at the beginning, standard malnutrition wasteland inhabitant level.
After this half-day of hard training and two portions of nutritional meals, though he's not fully recovered yet, the machine estimated Physical Index had risen to 6.
Ren Zhong was quite satisfied with the result, believing it wouldn't be long before he entirely overcomes his ailments and regains a strong body.
It's been said that the body is the capital of the revolution.
Ren Zhong thought this was an absolute truth.
Wen Lei nagged, "Ren, don't do this next time, it should be gradual. I don't understand why you're pushing so hard."
Ren Zhong laughed it off but didn't explain.
Long before, when he first stepped into Starfire Town and saw the tragic life of the wasteland people, he already had an awakening.
Why do I push myself?
Because this world will eat you.
I'm not sure if I can change this world.
But since I am gifted, at least I need to become a ravenous beast in this world.
At minimum, I don't want to be prey.
As for what Wen Lei said about sudden death, am I afraid?
Of course I am.
But that doesn't stop me from facing my limits with a fear of death.
This is his new life, every day, every hour, every second of living is precious.
The two walked about ten minutes to reach a small courtyard in the middle region of the slum at the north end of the town.
The courtyard had a four-meter-high wall, eight meters wide, sixteen meters deep, with a two-story structure building inside.
"This is our team's yard, we usually rest here. Ren, this should be your first time here. There is a bathroom inside, go take a shower first. Can you still move now?"
Wen Lei explained while opening the door.
Ren Zhong: "Barely manageable."
Inside, Zheng Tian and others were sitting in the yard chatting while eating sunflower seeds.
Seeing the two return, Zheng Tian immediately got up and walked quickly over.
Seeing Ren Zhong's near-death appearance, she angrily punched Wen Lei in the chest, "What happened? How did Ren end up like this? Did someone cause trouble?"
Wen Lei, having an injury on his chest that was just hit by Zheng Tian, drew back a step with a wincing corner of his mouth, and explained aggrievedly, "It's not like that at all."
