Chapter 15: Jerry in Superhuman Form
Chapter 15: Jerry in Superhuman Form
Why activate the "Brain Booster" function before a battle?
This is because after multiple experiments, Jerry discovered that the "Brain Booster" function temporarily maximizes his brain's potential, putting it into a highly active state.
This state, which can accelerate the learning of magical knowledge, can also be applied to combat.
In learning, it significantly enhances understanding, memory, and analytical skills. In combat, it allows his brain to unlock the body's constraints, granting it liberation.
Jerry refers to this brain-controlled body liberation state as "Superhuman Form"!
In his past life, he watched a movie called Lucy, where the protagonist, due to a drug, achieved an extraordinary level of brain and body development.
In the end, she became a being with god-like abilities, knowing and doing everything.
Jerry's Superhuman Form, while not as exaggerated, allows his body to achieve near 100% liberation under the control of his brain.
We all know that an untrained person finds it difficult to coordinate their muscles and fully utilize their physical strength.
However, long-trained martial artists can control their muscles with precision, enabling them to unleash far greater power from the same body.
Jerry's current Superhuman Form is like transforming from an amateur martial arts enthusiast to a Grandmaster Martial Artist in an instant.
The body is still the same, but in this Superhuman Form, his strength and speed are significantly enhanced compared to his normal state.
Combined with his highly optimized brain, his five senses are also enhanced, and this synergy can elevate his combat power by several levels.
However, this state is not without side effects, and the longer it is maintained, the more severe the consequences.
Firstly, his brain becomes extremely sluggish after stopping the "Mind Enhancer" function, making him feel extremely sleepy.
If used for too long, the brain's overexertion can cause him to fall into a deep sleep, similar to what happened when he read for four hours straight last time.
Secondly, if he uses the enhanced brain to unlock his Superhuman Form and perform extraordinary physical movements, his muscles will become extremely sore afterward, requiring a period of rest to recover.
Overuse might even result in widespread muscle strains.
Therefore, when activating Superhuman Form, he must either aim for a quick and decisive victory or ensure he is in a completely safe environment when it ends.
Otherwise, it could be dangerous.
"Smoke Cloud!"
Raising his wand, Jerry pointed it at the four men counting money and cast a spell. A burst of magical light shot out, and the center of the warehouse was instantly enveloped in a thick cloud of smoke.
"Smoke grenade? No good, the police must be on their way!"
Upon noticing the sudden cloud of smoke, the leader of the robbers, Smith, immediately assumed they had been found by the police.
He hastily ordered his men to pick up the rifles next to them and start firing at the warehouse doors and windows, while also retreating deeper into the warehouse.
At the same moment, Jerry launched himself forward with a swift kick, moving like a cheetah toward the four robbers shrouded in the smoke.
In Superhuman Form, Jerry's speed was incredibly fast, comparable to that of world-class sprinters. In less than three seconds, he covered nearly twenty meters and reached the first of the robbers.
This bandit was none other than the bulky man who had threatened to kick Jerry’s butt when he got off the school bus.
“A gentleman avenges a wrong in ten years, but a petty person does so from morning to night!”
Clearly, Jerry was not a gentleman.
He leaped up, and the dagger in his hand slashed viciously across the bulky man’s neck.
“Rip!”
Blood spurted out, and the bulky man instinctively clutched his neck, trying to take a deep breath. However, his once strong body had become weak and powerless due to the blood loss.
Perhaps sensing the situation behind him, the other three bandits turned around, their guns at the ready.
“Softening Charm!”
Lifting his wand with his left hand, Jerry cast a Softening Charm on the rifle of the bandit farthest from him.
In reality, casting a Transfiguration Charm would have been better, but with his current magical prowess, transfiguring a small dagger was manageable, while transforming an entire rifle was highly unlikely to succeed.
The Softening Charm, however, would soften the rifle’s barrel, rendering it unable to fire properly.
“Go!”
As he cast the Softening Charm, his right hand didn’t idle. He threw the dagger in his hand directly at the bandit closest to him.
Thanks to his superhuman state, the dagger flew with remarkable speed and accuracy, akin to the skills of a movie’s expert in hidden weapons.
“Ah!”
A scream of agony, the dagger lodged precisely in the bandit’s right eye socket, piercing deep into his brain.
At this moment, Jerry’s Sixth Sense started warning him frantically.
The bandit leader, who was neither too far nor too close, had raised his rifle and aimed it at Jerry’s head.
His legs instantly burst into action, and with a sliding step, he retreated, using his small stature to his advantage. Just as the bandit leader fired the first shot, Jerry narrowly slipped behind the first bulky man he had killed, who had yet to fall to the ground.
“Full-Speed Repel!”
Jerry pointed his wand at the back of the first bulky man. Drawing on his years of experience playing “Angry Birds” and the precision of his super brain, he unleashed all his remaining magical power in a Repelling Charm.
The magical light shot from the wand, striking the bulky man’s back. With a trail of blood gushing from his neck, the man became a giant red bird, crashing into the bandit leader.
Smith, the bandit leader, had never experienced being hit by a nearly 200-pound man in mid-air. The impact knocked him to the ground, and he hit his head, falling unconscious.
Putting away his wand, Jerry wasted no time and sprinted toward the bandit farthest from him.
The Repelling Charm had almost drained his limited magical energy, leaving him with no choice but to engage the last bandit in close combat.
The last bandit, meanwhile, was in a state of utter confusion.
What was happening?
First, a smoke grenade, followed by a burst of gunfire with no sign of police, but his own brother was killed by a small figure from behind.
Just as he was about to shoot at the blurry figure in the smoke, his rifle suddenly turned as soft as a noodle—truly bizarre!
By the time he regained his senses, another brother had been stabbed in the eye, the leader was knocked out, and the small figure in the smoke was charging straight at him.
As he got a closer look, he realized it was the brown-haired boy they had taken off the school bus!
