As August arrived, the temperature became increasingly hotter, with fifty-degree heat becoming the norm.

"Bro, you're always sleeping in the bedroom, aren't you hot?" After dinner, Chen Xingyue asked with a puzzled look.

Since July, every night, she and her parents have been sleeping on the balcony on the third floor, but only her brother continued to stay in the bedroom.

She felt hot just thinking about him and couldn't figure out how he managed to stay there.

"When the mind is at peace, naturally one feels cool." Chen Shouyi said calmly.

As a divine creature, he could withstand heat better than ordinary creatures, at least he didn't sweat much when at rest. Of course, the Shell Lady was even more heat-resistant, being able to sleep soundly under the blankets in such hot weather.

"You really are a freak for being able to sleep!"

"What do you mean by freak!" Chen Shouyi was displeased, "From a scientific perspective, this is called being better adapted to harsh environments!"

"Isn't that still being a freak!"

"You... I'm too lazy to explain to you!"

"Bro, you're well-informed, is the power supply coming soon?" Chen Xingyue asked curiously.

"I haven't inquired, but it should be soon. It's all over the newspapers!" Chen Shouyi replied.

Recently, the news about the upcoming power supply had been all over.

At the same time, the electrical reconstruction work within the Safe Zone had already started.

Compared to the previous 220 volt residential output voltage, the output voltage after this reconstruction would be as high as 3000 volts, much higher than the lossless output of 1500 volts learned from Guan Miao.

This was clearly considering the possibility of Earth's Original Force enhancing again in the future.

"Then by that time, we can use fans." Chen Xingyue said excitedly.

"But first you need to have an electric fan!" Chen Shouyi dampened the excitement.

With a 3000 volt output voltage, fans produced before the mutation would no longer work.

Previously produced fans were all manufactured under a 220 volt specification, and the voltage tolerance wasn't very high. Even industrial fans had a maximum tolerance of only five or six hundred volts.

With 3000 volts of electricity flowing in, not only would the motors inside the fans immediately blow up, but there would also be a risk of electric shock, necessitating a re-manufacture under a 3000 volt specification.

The fact is, even if the power supply resumed, it couldn't possibly return to pre-mutation status at once.

...

Late at night, in the bedroom.

The sound of insects chirping was noisy outside the window.

Chen Shouyi lay on the bed, eyes closed, deep in meditation.

A colorful and intricate four-dimensional pattern of the human body clearly emerged in his mind.

Now his skin, fat, muscles, blood vessels, internal organs, and bones were all fully constructed, with only negligible shadows remaining.

Only the spinal cord and the nervous network connected to it, and the brain, were still in shadow.

However, today seemed to have accumulated enough strength, and this image, stagnant for nearly ten days, finally began to break through.

First, the sensory nerves on the skin's surface gradually lit up.

These nerve fibers enabled the skin to sense touch, warmth, cold, pain, and pressure, followed by motor nerve fibers, which were distributed around the skin's appendages, governing muscle activity.

These nerves were as thin as capillaries and consumed almost no perception.

Numerous subtle nerves lit up as if electrically powered, achieving victory after victory, with the shadow above being continuously driven away.

Before long, it broke through the fat layer and went into the muscle layer.

Ten minutes later, the visceral nerves were also gradually lit up, eventually connecting to the spinal cord.

No, not all nerves were connected to the spinal cord; some facial and neck nerves were directly connected to the brain.

In Chen Shouyi's mind, an intricately interwoven neural network had initially formed, these nerves emitting a faint glow that alternated between light and dark, creating a magnificent and breathtaking sight.

But this refinement didn't stop; after a brief pause, it began to spread to the spinal cord.

...

In the darkness, Chen Shouyi suddenly opened his eyes, his face showing a trace of joy.

"After such a delay, I've finally completed the initial marrow refinement. I reckon soon I will be able to enter the next stage."

He ignored the overwhelming drowsiness from excessive sensory depletion and prepared to get up from bed to experience any changes.

However, as his body moved, he felt a strong sense of difference.

The rough, clear texture of the mat rubbing against his skin allowed him to feel even the mat's tiny burrs and minute shapes.

At the same time, his skin felt itchy and even slightly painful.

His skin sensations seemed magnified and became extremely sensitive.

He then carefully sensed it further.

He found it wasn't just the skin.

His sense of smell, hearing, and even vision had somewhat improved, making him more attuned to the outside world and able to receive finer external information.

"Marrow refinement also has this effect!" he exclaimed.

He got out of bed and walked a few steps:

"Huh, something's not right!"

Then he continued walking, his eyes getting brighter.

"This feeling is like... reduced body latency."

He hurriedly opened his attribute panel.

Strength: 16.4

Agility: 16.9

Constitution: 16.5

Intelligence: 14.5

Perception: 14.2

Willpower: 15.3

Energy Accumulation: 5.01

The agility data left Chen Shouyi stunned; he almost thought he was seeing things until he looked again and finally confirmed.

The agility had unexpectedly increased by 0.6 points.

It grew by almost thirty percent.

This was a completely unexpected surprise.

He was delighted, walking back and forth, and if it weren't the middle of the night, he would have wanted to shout out loud. After a long time, his emotions finally calmed down.

"Does refinement increase neural response capability?" Chen Shouyi mused while adapting to his new body.

All human movement is initiated by brain commands, transmitted through the nervous system for each muscle group to coordinate and exert force. How much and how to exert force is managed by the nervous system.

This refinement either sped up the neural transmission of information or enhanced muscle response speed, or even both.

...

Chen Shouyi initially thought these benefits from neural system refinement were one-time.

But the next day, after meditating for inner refinement, he was pleasantly surprised to find his agility increased by another 0.4.

On the third day, it increased by another 0.2.

By the fourth day, it increased again by 0.1.

In just four short days, his agility improved by 1.3, reaching an astonishing 17.6, soaring to the highest of all attributes and surpassing the second highest constitution by 1.2.

...

In an alternate world.

Chen Shouyi's left hand held the War Bow, his hand moved like a blur.

Arrows poured out like a violent storm.

The air resounded with constant booming.

Within one breath, two quivers of arrows were already emptied.

"I've already reached eighteen arrows per second!" his eyes sharp, looking ahead.
