At this moment, Zhang Jie and the other two watched Uchiha Gen standing beneath the Main God some distance away and noticed that he had changed considerably.
The original Uchiha Gen had been around 1.6 meters tall, with fair skin and a gentle, jade-like appearance.
His figure had seemed somewhat slender, and he had been a handsome young boy with a slightly cool temperament.
But now, his height had suddenly shot up to 1.7 meters. Though his skin remained fair, his physique had become sturdy and muscular.
Every inch of his body was covered in sharply defined muscles. He radiated a masculine, imposing aura that made his strength obvious at a glance.
His apparent age had abruptly changed from twelve or thirteen to fourteen or fifteen.
"How was it? How was it? What did you enhance?"
Seeing that Uchiha Gen had finished his enhancement, Zhang Jie eagerly pressed him with questions.
Beside him, Zheng Zha, whose will to survive had soared after confirming that Luo Li truly existed, and Zhan Lan both watched Uchiha Gen curiously, wanting to know what he had enhanced.
"I received one Rank A Side-Story Mission and over sixteen thousand Reward Points. After looking through the Main God List all night, I chose the Mutant Saiyan Bloodline. Let me get a sense of how much my strength has changed after the enhancement."
After answering his teammates' questions, Uchiha Gen closed his eyes and quietly felt the changes within his body.
The strength of his muscles, bones, flesh, and blood had increased enormously compared to before.
Every inch of his body brimmed with explosive power. Vast vitality and blood flowed through him, nourishing his mind.
Uchiha Gen could clearly sense that his Mental Strength was beginning to increase at a rate visible to the naked eye.
All he needed was an opportunity, and his Sharingan would awaken.
In the professional terminology passed down through Ninshu in the Naruto World, enhancing the Saiyan Bloodline had greatly improved Uchiha Gen's physical constitution, causing his Yang Release to grow substantially.
Because Yin and Yang complemented each other, it had in turn driven the growth of his Yin Release.
At this moment, Uchiha Gen began refining Chakra with all his strength.
All the stamina in his body was squeezed out and converted into Chakra.
Even as his stamina was rapidly drained, it was also recovering at high speed under the effects of the Saiyan Bloodline.
"Damn, my Chakra reserves have increased by more than ten times. Factoring in the Chakra that continuously recovers during battle, the amount of Chakra I can use in a short period is twenty or thirty times greater than before."
"On top of that, I already mastered Fire and Wind Chakra nature transformations. Without question, I now have Jonin-level combat power. If I activate Great Ape Transformation, then purely through raw stats, I might even be able to fight a Kage-level expert."
"This newly enhanced A-Rank bloodline can only display ten percent of its power without the Gene Lock. The next stretch of time will be a period of rapid growth for me."
Uchiha Gen murmured inwardly as he converted the Chakra back into stamina, lest his body weaken after unused Chakra naturally dissipated over time.
He opened his eyes and smiled at his teammates. "I've become much stronger. I should have Jonin-level strength now. We should be much safer in future Horror movies."
A Jonin was roughly building-busting level.
Although Uchiha Gen had yet to unlock the Gene Lock, with this raw strength alone, setting aside Zheng Zha, the disgrace among those at the same level, he should possess Second-Stage Intermediate-Advanced strength.
Moreover, he had only just enhanced his Saiyan Bloodline and still had much power left to master. Once he did, he should reach Third Stage combat power.
Great Ape Transformation increased his explosive combat power tenfold. Even if he could not defeat a Fourth-Stage Beginner expert, he could still contend with one to some extent.
Zhan Lan said enviously, "I just checked. In this Resident Evil horror movie world, I received one Rank C Side-Story Mission and three thousand Reward Points in total. Who knows how long I'll have to save before I can exchange for an A-Rank enhancement like yours, Gen?"
Zheng Zha scratched his head and said with a smile, "I also received a Side Mission and Reward Points. I broke through my Mental Threshold while fighting the Lickers, so the Main God gave me five hundred points. Assisting in protecting the mercenary squad earned me one Rank B Side-Story Mission and five thousand Reward Points."
"Adding the thousand points for clearing the horror movie, I now have one Rank B Side-Story Mission and six thousand five hundred Reward Points."
The inertia of history really was powerful. Everything had returned to its original track. Aside from killing fewer Zombies and receiving two fewer Reward Points, Zheng Zha's gains were basically no different from those in the original Infinite Horror.
Of course, things had not remained completely unchanged.
Because of Uchiha Gen's arrival, Zhan Lan had received additional rewards.
Zhang Jie complained with an ugly expression, "Damn it, am I the only one who didn't get any Side Missions? I only got three hundred Reward Points for killing Lickers. Is the Main God discriminating against veterans?"
Hearing that, Uchiha Gen glanced at him.
He did not know whether Zhang Jie truly had not received rewards because his Rank AA enhancement made him too strong, or whether he was merely pretending to be weak.
At that moment, Zheng Zha comforted him. "It's fine, Brother Zhang Jie. It doesn't matter if we didn't get any Side Missions this time. We can earn more later."
Zhan Lan looked at Uchiha Gen curiously and asked, "Gen, you spent the entire night looking through the Main God exchanges. Do you have any suggestions for how I should exchange these Reward Points and Side Missions?"
People naturally trusted the strong.
Especially since Uchiha Gen had faced the danger of the Hive alone to protect them in the Resident Evil World, he had earned the trust of the Central Continent Team.
At this moment, Zheng Zha also looked at Uchiha Gen expectantly, wanting to hear this professional ninja's advice on enhancement.
"Before we begin enhancing ourselves, I want to ask everyone a question."
"We're a team, right?"
Uchiha Gen looked around at Zheng Zha and the other two before asking seriously.
"Yes."
"Right."
"Haven't we already relied on each other to survive a Resident Evil scenario?"
Zhang Jie, Zheng Zha, and Zhan Lan gave affirmative answers in turn.
Putting aside Zhang Jie, who was just dead weight, following Uchiha Gen, this thick thigh, was undoubtedly the option with the higher survival rate for Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan.
Uchiha Gen nodded and exchanged a small amount of Reward Points for one thousand reward credits.
Using a negligible amount of reward credits, he exchanged for a complete set of sofas and a conference table in the Main God Plaza.
Then he exchanged for a table full of tea and snacks, invited everyone to sit down, and only then spoke.
"Since we are a team, we need a division of labor. Everyone should fulfill their proper role and help one another. That way, we can ensure our survival rate while also completing the missions issued by the Main God as thoroughly as possible."
"Therefore, a team should have members filling five roles: primary melee combatant, primary ranged combatant, support, logistics, and strategist."
"Before enhancing yourselves, you must first understand your own role. Only then can you undergo targeted enhancements."
To prevent Zheng Zha from using his 'world-shaking wisdom' to exchange for something and ultimately becoming a Qigong Vampire, a disgrace among those at the same level, Uchiha Gen naturally had to seize control over the team's exchanges.
Now was the best opportunity.
