Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Body Transformation Pills, Speed Enhancement

Seraphina Sullivan’s expression stiffened when she saw the number detected on the Sound Wave Vibration Gun.

"Thank god it’s not nighttime..." Seraphina sucked in a sharp breath, a cold sweat already breaking out on her back.

’Otherwise, they would have torn me to shreds.’

But then, a crazed smile spread across her face. "But... this is the perfect time to do some harvesting!"

She decisively pulled out three grenades and flicked off the safety rings with her thumb. After silently counting to three, she precisely hurled them into the most densely packed area of the nest.

"BOOM—!!!"

A deafening explosion echoed throughout the abandoned factory as flames shot toward the sky.

The shock wave sent rubble from the ground flying. Even though Seraphina had already taken cover, the blast wave still sent her stumbling.

Immediately after, a rapid series of system notifications chimed in her mind:

[Ding! Parasite Variant killed - Mission Progress 11/100]

[Ding! Parasite Variant killed - Mission Progress 12/100]

...

[Ding! Parasite Variant killed - Mission Progress 100/100]

[Ding! Parasite Variant killed - Mission Progress 921/100]

[Ding! Mission Two: Kill 100 Parasitic Creatures has been completed!]

[Reward: Body Transformation Pill]

"Holy crap! That’s insane!" Seraphina’s eyes widened as she stared at the system notifications in disbelief.

A few grenades had actually killed nearly a thousand parasitic monsters. The efficiency was simply absurd!

She glanced down at the remaining grenades on her belt and suddenly felt that Nicholas Jensen, that "human arsenal," was an absolute treasure.

’The destructive power of modern weapons is something else.’

Seraphina couldn’t help but feel envious of Nicholas Jensen’s Ability all over again.

Right now, however, Seraphina was more interested in the reward she had just received.

Gazing at the [Body Transformation Pill] that had suddenly appeared in her hand, glowing softly, Seraphina carefully examined its description:

[Body Transformation Pill]

Effect: Completely transforms your physical constitution, randomly granting one of the following traits.

1. [Injury Recovery] - Greatly enhances self-healing ability.

2. [Speed Enhancement] - Significantly enhances movement and reaction speed.

3. [Increased Strength] - Grants superhuman strength.

4. [Increased Stamina] - Greatly extends endurance limit.

Note: The transformation lasts for one day.

"So that’s how it is..." Seraphina finally understood after reading the Body Transformation Pill’s description. "No wonder Nicholas Jensen was still breathing after being so badly injured. That guy must have gotten the [Injury Recovery] trait."

Seraphina took a deep breath and swallowed the pill without hesitation.

A warm current instantly spread from her stomach throughout her entire body. Her bones made faint CRACKLING sounds as her muscle fibers began to restructure.

The process wasn’t painful. On the contrary, it felt as comfortable as soaking in a hot spring.

A few minutes later, Seraphina heard a system notification: 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

[Ding! Constitution Ability Acquired: Speed Enhancement]

[Description: Your movement speed and reflexes have been significantly enhanced!]

Of course, the transformation was still a gradual process.

’The speed type, huh?’ Seraphina tried moving quickly and, just as she expected, her body felt much lighter.

She casually picked up a piece of rubble and tossed it into the air. As the stone fell, she found she could clearly see its trajectory and caught it with ease.

Although it wasn’t the injury recovery trait she wanted most, she was still quite satisfied with this result.

After all, in the apocalypse, sometimes being able to run fast was more important than having a high combat power.
