Chapter 25: The Runaway State of Life
By renewing the cells, the peak state of the living organism is completed. It means that you have completed the whole of your life in the shortest time.
Yes, Edward's body has a strong metabolism and is always at its peak.
Through his own perception, he can clearly perceive that his metabolism is three times faster than that of ordinary people. However, cells are renewing five times faster than ordinary people.
The terrible rate of renewal maintains the activity of cells, the old cells are constantly being broken down, and new cells are born, and the peak state of life ensures the high-speed development of the brain.
However, this state, if he could, Edward would definitely terminate. Because he knows, what will this state bring him?
Strong body, exuberant energy, high-speed thinking......
That's a superhuman state.
But on the other hand, it also means that if an ordinary person can live for 100 years. Then Edward would only live twenty years.
Relive a life, he doesn't want to die!
He can feel that life is losing every minute and every second, and he can feel the end of his life, like an illusory clock in his mind, clearly remembering the time you have left.
Now, the feeling is clearer, and lives are being lost more quickly.
The feeling that life is coming to an end is hopeless and maddening.
All of this was deeply pressed in his heart!
In the past, in order to prolong his life as much as possible, Edward used his own ability to suppress the cells of the whole body, so to speak, except for the brain cells, the other cells were only at Edward's lowest life activity line.
After satisfying the brain's nutrient acquisition, the body's vital activities are suppressed as much as possible. To this end, Edward reduced physical activity as much as possible.
For example, lie down as much as possible, talk as little as possible, and think as little as possible......
Even in order to be able to delay his life for minutes, hours, and days, Edward used his own ability to suppress the life activities of all cells in his body except for brain cells......
Edward's approach was like just supplying a big man, with limited food, so that he could control a bottom line that would not starve to death. In this way, try to make your cells last as long as possible, so that you can have more time. In order to prolong as long as possible, waiting for the moment when the door of truth is fully awakened.
Although, this bottom line is also several times higher than others. But this was the limit of what Edward could do. For the past fourteen years, Edward has lived with care.
It's like sitting on a crater that is slowly accumulating strength and waiting to erupt. He can clearly perceive the time of the eruption of the volcano, and what he can't do is to struggle with everything he can.
Do everything possible to supply more energy to the brain to meet the energy needed for brain development. He hoped that when he fully awakened the door of truth, he would rely on the power of the door of truth to solve his own problems.
However, now he can't wait.
Feeling the door of truth, which was still illusory in his mind, Edward knew that if he didn't take action, he would never be able to wait for the day when he would fully awaken with the rest of his life.
Fourteen years old is not a small age, but for boys, it is a time of life development. Now Edward can no longer suppress the genetic instinct that has come from life for thousands of years.
Just today, he personally lifted the suppression of his body, and the cells in his body have completely awakened. Removing the restricted cells is no longer what he can restrict.
In the future, perhaps he will be dragged down by the vigorous metabolic speed, and then go to the end of his life.
He needs to develop his brain to 10% as soon as possible, and if he doesn't succeed, he will die!
In the past, perhaps he still had time to wait for the door of truth to be fully awakened. However, it is now gone.
It's not that he didn't want to end his abnormal state, but all this is under the control of the Gate of Truth, and there is nothing he can do.
"I've been cornered!" Edward's heart was cold.
Chewing on the stiff steaks, feeling the tender juices explode in my mouth. He didn't have a chance to feel the deliciousness, he was just repeating the action of chewing mechanically, and he only completed the process of eating in the shortest possible time.
Save life activities as much as possible and consume energy as soon as possible.
Large chunks of steak that Edward quickly chewed into minced meat. If you break it up and look closely, you will find that these minced meat are composed of spherical particles of equal size.
Yes, exactly the same spherical particles!
Relying on alchemy's ability to perceive and control, Edward's power control reached a limit.
With this control, Edward was able to do the unthinkable. And all this is to digest the food faster, making more room for more food intake. Now Edward, everything is for survival.
A large amount of food enters the stomach, and then is quickly decomposed and digested by active digestive enzymes, converted into fine particles, and then enters the intestines, which are further digested, and then absorbed by the rich capillaries on the wall of the small intestine, and continuously transported to all parts of the body through the blood.
In particular, the brain.
What is different from the past is that the other cells in Edward's body, at this time, are like strong men who have been hungry for a long time, and they are also frantically devouring the nutrients flowing through them to complete their own crazy life metabolism.
A large amount of nutrients are constantly being consumed. Weak cells, starting to get stronger!
And Edward needed a constant intake of food!
Everything is for the sake of living!
The people around were surprised, and they would never have imagined what horror a boy with a sunny face had in his heart!
A person who knows the limits of his life from the beginning, a person who struggles with time every day. Feeling yourself step by step towards death, no one can understand what it is like.
Edward's body, with a large amount of nutrients, began to become fuller little by little. The originally emaciated and pale face also began to become rounded.
And in Edward's sea of knowledge, the door of truth seems to have some new changes, and it has become a little more real.
Edward, who had been paying attention to the Door of Truth, felt the Door of Truth carefully in his heart, and seemed to have a different feeling.
"Something seems to be different......
