Chapter 425: Chapter 308: Wolverine’s Bone Claws

Good kid, if he were to take up a building moving job, he could earn quite a few bucks in a day, couldn’t he?

Wang Ye’s parents watched him easily transport goods and couldn’t help but show expressions of amazement.

Although they knew Wang Ye’s physical condition had greatly improved, they didn’t expect it to be this exaggerated. Most of the furniture at home is made of solid wood and stainless steel, each piece weighing over two hundred pounds, yet Wang Ye could easily carry several at a time down the stairs. This strength... is beyond what a human can achieve, right?

Seeing Wang Ye’s rapidly improving physique and monstrous physical fitness in half a year,

his parents couldn’t help but look at each other in bewilderment. Could their son... have been possessed by an alien?

Originally, the task that would require several freight drivers to work all afternoon was completed in just half an hour with Wang Ye’s help. The freight drivers felt a bit awkward as they collected the payment, knowing full well they hadn’t done any work but still received the usual fee. How could they take the money with a clear conscience?

··························

··························

By the time Wang Ye finished the moving job completely, it was just around three in the afternoon.

Wang Ye placed the last piece of furniture in the corner of the new house’s room, adjusted its angle and position, and slightly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the moving task wasn’t physically demanding for him, the mental fatigue was the issue.

Because of his current strength, the furniture in his hands was as fragile as a biscuit. He was worried about accidentally bumping into something or exerting a bit too much force and breaking the furniture.

Just as he was about to leave, his footsteps suddenly paused slightly,

and he keenly noticed that his hand seemed to have grown larger.

"Why is there a sudden change in my bones?"

Wang Ye furrowed his brows and appeared puzzled.

The normal hand width is about eight centimeters, but Wang Ye’s regular hand width was eleven centimeters.

Now, however, his hand width had reached an absurd twelve and a half centimeters.

Like a giant’s hand.

A single hand could cover a normal person’s head.

As a world record holder in multiple sports, he was naturally well aware of every aspect of his body data. Like a top sprinter, after decades of training, would have millimeter-level control over his stride and leg length. For example, Su Bingtian runs at 5.2 steps per second, and even if his foot grew by just one millimeter, he would sense the change while running. This would severely affect the precise movement trajectory and frequency developed by years of training.

At Wang Ye’s level, his perception of body data was even more acute.

Even if his pinky nail grew by just one millimeter longer than the previous day, he would sense a slight change in his center of gravity while walking.

But his central nervous adaptation ability would quickly correct this influencing factor,

adjusting his movements to suit his current body type perfectly.

So the enlargement of his hand didn’t have any effect on him.

The reason he cared about this change was simply curiosity about why his hand had changed.

By now, he had undergone countless bone changes since he evolved every morning. Each evolution would bring subtle changes to his body tissues; at times, making his legs longer, his jawbone wider, or his fingers thicker.

But these were all changes to adapt to the current environment.

They all shared a common trait: they occurred when the evolution level increased.

When the evolution level didn’t increase, the body would not change in the slightest.

Obviously, the change in the size of his hands occurred the moment he placed the furniture on the ground, not when the evolution level increased in the morning. This immediately made him think of the new trait he gained while training Bone Shrinking Skill in the morning: "Bone development efficiency increased by 10%".

Wang Ye’s pupils suddenly constricted, as if he realized something, "Does this trait mean I can freely control the development of my bones?"

If his guess was correct, then everything made sense.

Because he was just moving goods. For moving, having larger hands is an absolute advantage as it allows better and more stable grip on the objects being moved, reducing the likelihood of breaking them due to increased area of contact.

During the move, Wang Ye was constantly contemplating how to increase the contact area between his body and the furniture. Perhaps it was this thought that caused his hands to enlarge.

Thinking of this, a look of anticipation appeared in Wang Ye’s eyes.

It turns out that none of the traits given by the system are unnecessary.

He immediately bid farewell to his parents, ran all the way to the villa area,

then entered the living room, locked the door, and prepared to experiment with his newly acquired trait.

He stood in the empty area, staring at his hands.

Trying to drive his hand bones to develop through sheer will.

But since he just mastered this ability, he wasn’t proficient.

After attempting control for five minutes, only a slight change occurred in one segment of his middle finger.

His third knuckle suddenly grew about half a centimeter longer than before.

This already long middle finger became even more prominent.

Upon seeing the change in his hand bone, Wang Ye’s face immediately showed joy, 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

though the change was small, it proved that he could indeed manipulate bone development through his will!

He continued trying to control other bones to change, in hopes of improving his control efficiency,

but it was evident he hadn’t successfully mastered this skill yet, as signal transmission still required minutes, and bone development took a long time because his bones were no longer typical calcium-based bones but mainly steel bone with chromium element.

This element is challenging to supplement, although not scarce in the earth’s crust, it can’t be replenished through food or metal particles in the air; the body has to synthesize it.

Thus Wang Ye spent half an hour trying, yet changes in his hand bones were minimal. Finally, he sat on a chair, contemplating how he could improve the speed of his bone development.

Suddenly, he thought of a good method.

"As they say, you are what you eat. If my body lacks chromium, shouldn’t I just eat chromium?" Wang Ye slapped his head, immediately went out to purchase a fifteen-kilogram high-purity chromium block.

Upon returning to the villa, he decisively placed the fifteen-kilogram high-purity chromium block in his mouth and began to chew it with difficulty.

Since teeth are also a type of bone, his teeth were now high-hardness metallic material. With some effort, he could barely chew the chromium block,

though it would cause some damage to the teeth. But for him, teeth damages could quickly recover, so it was nothing serious.

Crunch... crunch...

After about half a minute of chewing, he painstakingly swallowed it.

Instantly, the high concentration gastric acid began breaking down the chromium element, gradually transporting it to various parts of the body.

Wang Ye took the opportunity to control the development of his bones, imagining all the chromium elements in his body pouring into his hand bones, growing towards the image of a superhero from a certain movie.

Buzz——

Gradually, three sharp bone blades protruded from his hand bones.
