Chapter 15: Advancement in Body Strengthening, successful in spreading the Gene
The level 0 undead dog was immediately crushed to bits as it plastered on the ground, two or three human undead were immediately killed by the impact as well.
"Come you little bastard." Ray grinned.
Ting!
Ting!
Ting!
Ray killed the five level 0 undead dogs in an instant, and at the same time, some undead were also killed in the ground.
"Now how to take care of this level one undead?" Ray frowned, just as he was cooking up a plan in his brain.
Suddenly, the red panel appeared in front of him.
[Congratulations you have collected 120 mutation points. You can level up your skill Body Strengthening. Would you like to proceed?]
Ray's eyes lit up as he unhesitantly imagined pressing yes.
All the mutation energy in his body started to convert into a warm energy that circulated in his body.
This warm energy was very comforting, and Ray felt relaxed as if he was in a sauna.
The warm energy circulated in his entire body, strengthening his skin, bones, muscles, and even his internal organs; it could be said to be an all-round strengthening.
"Status."

"Oh my physique has improved by five times?" Ray's eyes lit up, looking at the new section that had opened up.
He looked at the level one undead dog again.
"Can I take it now?" Ray couldn't help but think.
"You seemed to have grown taller and bulkier, Ray?" Grace's voice sounded in his ears as he looked at her.
"I have grown taller and bulkier?" Ray thought for a moment and just shrugged.
"What should we do? He is going to reach us soon, Ray?" Grace nervously looked at the undead dog.
"It's fine."
After saying this, Ray became completely silent with his eyes always focused on the dog.
Rawr!
Just as it was about to reach them, the dog roared in fury.
"Ahh–" Grace clutched her head with a terrified expression. Blood flowed out from her eardrums.
"Damn it."
Ray gritted his teeth. Luckily, his organs were all strengthened, so it didn't have much effect on him as he threw the pan at the dog before he took the spiraling rod that had killed the level one human undead before.
When it got in his range, Ray threw the spiraling iron rod towards the dog mercilessly; however, to his utter surprise, the dog caught it with his iron jaws and bent it with sheer power.
The next moment it jumped at him, almost biting his head off.
Ray hurriedly defended himself by kicking the dog to the wall.
The next moment it stood up while slowly circling around Ray as if a hunter, its eyes full of malevolence.
"Troublesome." Ray took a fighting stance as he got a staredown with the dog.
Grace became just a useless baggage the moment the dog roared, as she bled and she was still on the ground, rolling around in pain.
Rawr!
The dog roared before it jumped on him, its canine teeth rapidly enlarging in Ray's vision.
However, he didn't dodge, letting the dog bite him in the arms.
When the dog bit his arms, there seemed to be a faint trace of confusion in its violence because its sharp claws could barely penetrate his skin, stuck in his muscle.
"Die," Ray gritted his teeth through the pain, although it wasn't a serious wound, but it would be untrue if he said it didn't hurt.
He pushed the dog attached to his arm into the wall.
"Die."
Ray went back and slammed into the wall again, but the dog seemed to be stubborn as its canine teeth dug deeper into his arms.
"Die."
"Die."
"Die."
Ray slammed the undead level one dog continuously until its head was deformed, and it finally broke through his skull into the brain, smashing it to bits.
"Huff! Huff!"
His breathing was ragged as Ray tried to pry open the dog's mouth from his flesh.
The undead had already stopped moving as he removed the sharp canine teeth. Ray hissed in pain, almost a layer of his skin came out from the canine teeth of the dog as well.
He fell to the floor with an exhausted look.
"If my physique was not strengthened…." Ray felt a chill in his back just thinking about it.
His bones would have been broken, and then the undead dog would mercilessly bite him to pieces. There would be no surprise about it.
Laying sprawled against the ground, he looked at Grace who had calmed down a bit, but her entire body was writhing in pain.
"Freya!" he shouted.
"Yes, master." Freya came out with a tentative expression; however, when her eyes fell on the terrifying scene, she grasped in shock.
"Take care of her."
Ray looked at Grace and walked inside, applying basic first aid to himself.
Other than pain, the injuries were not actually life-threatening, so Ray could handle it quite easily.
Just like that, a day passed while recovering from the injuries.
"Umm are we really doing this right after we recover?" Grace asked nervously.
"Why don't you want it?" Ray frowned.
Hearing this, Grace bit her rosy lips but didn't deny.
Ray smiled seeing this. The woman has become more obedient than previously, probably because of that sound wave the undead dog releases which made her feel useless.
"Let's go."
"Umm."
The days seemed to pass in a blink of an eye. Two days have already passed.
Ray walked out of the room with an excited expression on his face as the red panel appeared in front of him.
