Chapter 223
Enlightenment (1)
Muscle is a human component consisting of a bundle of muscle fibers, a mass of muscle cells.
Through muscle, organisms can generate power and use this power to move.
And depending on the shape and quality of these muscles, the strength varies greatly.
Typical male grip strength is 50 kg, and the male orangutan grip strength is almost 200 kg.
In other words, Sang-woo was able to produce 50,000 kg, 50t grip strength, which is a thousand times 50 kg when only measured by figures.
Of course, it was not precisely determined whether the actual system figures grew this proportionately.
It’s just an assumption.
However, it was clear whether it was true or not, it was a great power.
And I couldn’t believe it.
‘Do I really have that kind of power? ’
Sang-woo clenched his fist as hard as he could.
Cadduk
I feel like my fist is about to burst.
‘Maybe it will. ’
With this kind of power, it was not enough to crush a rock like a cartoon.
I thought it might be possible to have a drink there and play with scrap metal like clay.
Perhaps it was possible to pierce a lump of iron with your finger.
When Sang-woo thought about it so far, he turned to himself.
‘… Am I right? ’
Does it make sense that humans can exert this kind of power?
The story of a mother who exerted superhuman power, lifting a truck to save a child stranded under a truck.
It was not unusual to hear such Internet narratives to go beyond human limits.
There are a lot of Awakenings and Hunters active in this era.
Because they’re there.
‘But there is a common sense. ’
Is it possible for a tiny human to jump over a building at once, punch through a metal plate, and bounce off a bullet bare?
Is it really possible for muscles and bones to be stronger than metal just by pushing the limits?
‘Let’s say I’m beyond human and beyond the limits of a truly human species. Even so, can proteins really become stronger than metals? ’
Sang-woo suddenly wondered and closed the connection.
Then I focused my consciousness on the Earth’s main body.
“… Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh.”
I can see it coming.
It was his room, and I saw the starboard side.
She was lying on the bed listening to music and surfing the web.
Sang-woo opened the smart goggle quietly, without disturbing her like that.
I was trying to surf the web to see if I could come up with something.
‘Let’s find out.’
Searching for different keywords, such as new proteins and protein materials, came up with various information.
And Sang-woo felt like he was breaking his common sense.
‘Protein… Was it this great? ’
A typical example was spider silk.
This transparent silk-like web made by spiders.
This silky protein fiber, which seemed to break even if the wind hopped, surprisingly had more elasticity and tension than any fibers of the same mass and volume.
It was said that the strength of the tensile strength would be stronger than steel.
In other words, collecting and collecting spider silk and making clothing can produce lightweight, hard and safe protective clothing.
Moreover, the technology has already been made practical by the U.S. Army Defense Lab and has recently been said to be using Iron Spider silk to make stronger and more powerful breakthrough armor.
‘A protein doesn’t mean it’s weaker than a metal. ’
Sang-woo had a prejudice that proteins, i.e. muscles, were strange if stronger than metals.
No, Sang-woo, as well as anyone, must have thought of that.
Common sense is that ‘the refined body is stronger than the metal’.
However, Sang-woo, who saw the infinite possibilities of protein structure, realized that the boundaries of such narrow ideas had collapsed.
‘Then my body must have had a protein mutation too. ’
How the hell did the protein structure get so modified?
Sang-woo looked closely through the Internet at what ordinary people’s muscle fibers were made of.
After knowing the structure to some degree.
‘Let’s get started.’
Sang-woo lay comfortably on his seat.
Now it was his turn to look inside.
He was conscious of a full-body Mana.
Then a new image appeared in the world of his image, and his insides were visible.
In his body, red and dark.
There, I felt Mana filling her body like she was using an infrared scope.
It was more accurate to say that I felt it than to see it.
Sang-woo examined Mana in various colorful colors.
There was a fast paced mana with a heartbeat, and depending on the Storm Core’s energy, there was also a Mana that was also able to be luminous to the outside of the body as well.
Sang-woo moves a little Mana near his heart, among other things.
‘Come here.’
Then, some of Mana, who had complied with his will and refined the whole body according to Sang-woo’s will, escaped from the blood vessel flow.
‘Good. Now let’s take a look. ’
Now it was time to take a closer look inside yourself.
Mana crosses organs and cell walls as if there were no boundaries.
He moves the Mana and sends it to his left arm.
Maybe it’s because I’m used to the system.
Whether he felt he was trying to shoot an error through his skill as usual, Mana habitually tried to move quickly to his left hand.
‘Whoa, easy. ’
Sang-woo stopped Mana from flowing away.
He releases Mana onto the muscle fibers of the left biceps.
Immediately, I felt different from the human structure I saw on the internet.
The protein structure is different. ’
Usually the human muscle fiber protein structure was in the form of yarn-like root fibers coming together like noodle stems.
And the root fiber was made up of a protein structure called myosin, a structure of myosin usually branched like a branch.
However, the myosin protein structure of the muscle fibers of Sang-woo was different.
‘… It looks like a bottle bottle. ’
His myosin protein structure was in the moribular form.
This bottleneck, such as the protein structure that makes up the spider silk, was zigzagged, so much more area was in contact with the muscle fibers relative to the same area than the normal branch structure that made contact with the abrasive.
That is why it was able to exert more strength than ordinary muscle fibers.
Sang-woo was excited to learn the secret of muscle fibers.
Somehow
‘Maybe it changed during the body change process. Then….’
If there’s a piece of protein that hasn’t changed with this structure, maybe we can improve it.
Sang-woo quickly searches the whole body for clues that seem to have crossed the limit.
However, Sang-woo was frustrated when he finished scanning.
All of his body had already been made up of muscles with a paralytic protein structure.
In other words, when compared with only muscle fibers, he had already reached the limit.
‘Too bad.’
Growing muscle volume here or increasing muscle fiber volume would increase strength more, but it seemed insignificant.
As Sang-woo hoped, exceeding the strength limit of 1,000, up to 2,000, 3,000, and 10,000, meant that this method was impossible to solve.
‘Hmm… So the method should be changed to a different protein structure. ’
Sang-woo looked inside again, wondering which monsters would have the best strength and agility to find the information again.
Sang-woo noticed something strange on his right arm.
‘… Mana is coated? ’
Yes, it is.
The muscle area that Sang-woo often used was strangely coated with muscle fibers, each of Mana’s particles sticking to the muscle fibers.
‘That’s amazing.’
Sang-woo lets out a little focus on Mana and gives his right arm strength.
Then, the Mana particles began to glow brightly.
It seemed as if each time Sang-woo’s strength concentrated, Mana particles transferred their strength to the muscle fibers to strengthen them.
‘This is what it looks like. ’
So far, Sang-woo has fought in a form that focuses on areas by pulling mana from cores such as Manana and Storm Core circulating through the body when an explosive force is needed.
However, in addition to his additional focused Mana, each muscle fiber was combining Mana particles to enhance its basic physical ability.
If Mana Focus is an Active Skill, then Manacle in Muscle Fibers is like a Passive Skill.
‘Is this the secret of strength? ’
It feels like a secret is being solved.
The more Mana particles cling to the muscle fibers, the stronger the structure was.
‘If so…. ’
It all made sense.
When catching monsters, the system message raises the Magic Power and some stats.
However, Sang-woo now knew.
It’s not in the system, but Mana is.
In other words, Mana is absorbed into the body.
‘So, the Mana absorbed in the body is attached to the muscle fibers to strengthen, boost impulse, increase regeneration and so on! ’
Mana gains strength by sticking to muscle fibers.
Mana is attached to the neural net, raising his mobility.
Mana gains strength by sticking to brain cells.
An epiphany that comes with a second payment.
Sang-woo immediately moved Mana to test his realization.
But I didn’t have to move.
Manah of the whole body trembles in fear of what he already thinks.
Suzus
Sang-woo doesn’t even know who he is.
The Mana, which Raven thought had surpassed the Grand Sword Master, is overwhelmed.
Then, each of the Mana particles began to bind to the upper right body of the muscle fiber, bone, neural network, brain cells, neuronal tissue, etc.
Let’s do it.
Kuooooooooooooooo
Shine from Sang-woo’s body.
The room where Sang-woo was with him shook.
“What, what! ”
Starboard side burst out of the bed.
She looks at Sang-woo, surprised.
But I couldn’t look where he was in that dazzling light.
“Danger!”
I don’t know what happened, but he felt Sang-woo was in danger.
She instinctively leapt towards Sang-woo.
To save him.
However, the whirlpool of Mana surrounding Sang-woo bounced straight off.
Bam!
The starboard side slammed against the door.
“Ugh… ”
He fainted, leaving a single cry.
And in the meantime,
Changing was going on Sang-woo’s body whether he knew that he had fallen on his right side.
