Swish.

As the green light retracted into his chest, the already dim cave immediately fell into complete darkness.

Zheng Shu sat in the middle of the cave, feeling the changes in his body, and smacked his lips: "That's it?!" ”

Compared with the reinforcement template of Hercules, Zheng Shu really did not have much pain in strengthening the reinforcement template of this lion, except for a little puncture, he didn't feel much at all, Zheng Shu even felt that he could sing, dance, and rap a whole set during the strengthening process.

Unconsciously moving his ears, Zheng Shu stood up from the ground and felt the changes in his body.

There is not much change in strength, after all, Hercules' physical fitness is too strong, although the physical fitness of this lion is not weak, but it has not increased much on the body of this almost monster.

After a little activity, Zheng Shu silently calculated in his heart, and it probably increased by less than five percent.

"Hiss......" gasped, and Zheng Shu was shocked by this data.

After all, before strengthening Hercules' strengthening template, the lion's initial strength was stronger than his own, but less than half of the lion's physical fitness only increased Zheng Shu's current physical fitness by less than half a percent, which means that Hercules' strength was more than ten times stronger than his original self.

After getting this result, Zheng Shu almost scolded his mother, he was a dragon at that time!

Although he is not yet an adult, a human can actually be more than ten times stronger than the physical fitness of dragons, and this is not counting the outrageous level of magic in Hercules's body, what kind of qualifications is this, can a god blood hero do whatever he wants?!

It's really ...... That's great!

After moving his ears, Zheng Shu pressed his index finger against his temple and kept drilling, revealing an unusually healthy smile.

He likes this kind of bloodline that doesn't talk about both heavenly principles and royal laws, and the more he does whatever he wants, the better, after all...... Now it's him who does whatever he wants!

Zheng Shu had long expected that the physical growth would not be significant, after all, the lion of Nemea was not famous in ancient Greek mythology for its combat effectiveness, but for its almost indestructible defense.

It can even be said that the cloak made of the lion's fur played a very important role in the fact that Heraclath was able to complete the twelve trials.

After thinking about it, Zheng Shu turned his arm into a dragon claw, ready to try his protective ability.

And then...... He was embarrassed.

Affected by the lion's enhanced template, Zheng Shu's alienated dragon claws have also become extremely sharp, that is to say, his current dragon claws can cut through his epidermal defenses like the lion of Nemea.

Zheng Shu then searched for what could be found around him, trying to verify his defenses.

However, it is a pity that Hercules' own defense is already extraordinary, even the magic metal is only a little hard plasticine in front of him, and he can't understand the difference in defense between the two sides until he encounters a god-made weapon or some special weapons.

"......" Zheng Shu wagged his tail a little embarrassed.

Although there was an unexpected surprise with Hercules, he worked hard for a month to obtain the lion's reinforcement template to strengthen his defense, but now he can't show the results of his efforts.

Although he trusted his golden finger very much and knew that his current defense power would not be much different from what he expected, Zheng Shu still had some inexplicable frustration.

"Huh?!" Zheng Shu's eyes widened violently, "Wait a minute, what did I do just now?!" ”

Somewhat incredulously, he focused his attention on the position of the tail bone below his waist, and Zheng Shu quietly wagged his tail again...... Tail.

Rumble!

The gravel that had blocked the entrance of the cave exploded, and Zheng Shu smashed all the obstacles in front of him like a beast out of the gate and came to the clearing. Raising his head and sniffing around, he found the location of a water source with his keen sense of smell.

Boom!

Without any hesitation, Zheng Shu exerted a fierce force under his feet, and the ground was trampled out of a shallow pit of radioactivity. His entire body turned into a phantom, smashed several stout trees, and rushed straight in the direction of the river.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

With Zheng Shu's wild running, everything that dared to stand in his way was directly smashed along the way, neither trees nor rocks could stop him for even a moment. All the animals were frightened out of place, for fear of being hit by the monster.

Because the power unleashed was so ferocious, a path appeared in the dense woods.

It wasn't until he was close to the water source that Zheng Shu changed his rampage. After walking a few steps, the originally dense jungle suddenly opened up, and a lake appeared in front of Zheng Shu.

Walking quickly to the side of the lake, Zheng Shu fell to the ground with a "bang", lowered his head and looked at his image reflected on the water.

The majestic body has a perfect shape and proportions comparable to that of a marble sculpture, and due to the great increase in strength, the appearance of Zheng Shu's true appearance obtained from the second skill is also increasing wildly.

And the skill of the panel is not to stiffen to improve the appearance, but to change along Zheng Shu's existing physical state.

When Zheng Shu was still in his infancy, in order to be able to better protect himself, the appearance characteristics provided by the second skill were more inclined to be cute.

When he was not an adult before, Zheng Shu's appearance changed to a more androgynous neutral image, and when his appearance improved, he also tended to make his face more refined.

After his physical strength reached a certain limit, Zheng Shu's appearance changed again. The facial lines change from an unusually delicate neutral image to a more angular direction. originally looked a little genderless, but now it has become an unusually obvious image of a handsome guy.

With Zheng Shu's current strength, his appearance improved because of his second skill is enough to attract all women who can see his true appearance in this world...... and a portion of men.

Even in the face of the goddess...... and a male god who likes to become a woman, Zheng Shu is also sure to amaze them with his appearance.

If the change in appearance only ends here, Zheng Shu will probably feel very happy, although it is not very useful in normal battles, but there will be many secret benefits when it comes to interpersonal communication.

The problem is that in the reflection of the lake, on the head of such a strong man with cold lines, there is also this pair of yellow beast ears that are constantly trembling.

Logically speaking, because it is a reinforcement template from the lion, the ears on the head should be lion ears. However, on such a two-meter-five strong man, this thing looks like a pair of cat ears. And behind him, there was a thick enough yellow tail that kept swaying with his mood.

Zheng Shu looked at the reflection in the water and was silent for a long time, and finally, after the yellow ears on his head moved, he had to admit such a devastating fact...... He's become a beast-eared man!!

He should have thought a long time ago that the requirements he put forward when strengthening were not to change the general human form and not affect his mental state, although the beast ears and tail were two extra sets of organs, but they did perfectly meet Zheng Shu's requirements in every aspect.

Although he often said on the Internet that his XP was a white-haired beast ear when he hadn't crossed over, Zheng Shu fell into self-isolation after he became a beast ear, and even the yellow tail behind him also wilted.

Panel ...... Is it too late for me to strip the lion of the reinforcement template now? Holding on to the last hope, Zheng Shu asked about his golden finger.

[After leaving the world and arriving in the new world, the user has a chance to choose whether to strip the template that has not yet been peeled.] 】

It's a pity that the information on the panel gave him a slap in the face.

Kneeling on the ground and silent for a long time, Zheng Shu finally accepted this fact, he stood up silently, and began to test the use of these two extra sets of organs with a blank face.

After testing, Zheng Shu confirmed that he is indeed a quadruple channel now, and both sets of ears can work normally. However, there is a difference in the range of sound that can be heard by the two sets of ears, and if the two ears are used together, the best perception effect can be achieved, which can improve his previous hearing by almost half.

As for the tail with the thickness of an ordinary person's arm on his back, Zheng Shu confirmed that the tail could help him maintain a certain degree of body balance after trying to move it.

In addition, Zheng Shu originally thought that this tail would become a flaw similar to long hair, and if someone pulled it during the battle, he would be dropped by a Hulk.

But in the actual test, Zheng Shu found that the strength of this tail was beyond his imagination, although it was not as strong as the thigh, but it was already more than the strength of the arm. And it is not inferior to other limbs in terms of maneuverability and flexibility, and it can be regarded as a real fifth limb.

In this way, the tail will not only not be a flaw, but may be a surprise helper in battle.

Watching his tail stiffly strangle a person's thick rock, Zheng Shu nodded with satisfaction. Although he looks a little ashamed in appearance, in terms of combat effectiveness, he has made a lot of money in this round.

However, although he overcame the shame in his heart, Zheng Shu still had some headaches how to hide these two obvious characteristics.

Because in ancient Greek mythology, humans and other creatures were not allowed to intermarry in most cases, and the most common mixture of the two races was the mixture of humans and gods.

Of course, saying that you are cursed by the gods can explain the situation of these two organs, but in a world with gods, saying this is no different from killing yourself.

In fact, the tail is easy to solve, Zheng Shu can learn from the Saiyan who just appeared to wrap his tail around his waist and pretend to be a belt. In this world, many clothes are made of animal skin, and a belt that looks like a lion's tail is not very conspicuous.

Solving the problem of the tail, Zheng Shu solved the trouble of his ears in the same way. He let his ears lie down against his scalp and cover them with thick hair, so that as long as there is no strenuous exercise or no one is looking at it, it should be enough to hide.

As for what to do if someone sees the ears of the beast during the battle...... Zheng Shu said that they are already in a state of battle anyway, so everyone has to die!

Having said that, Zheng Shu was very decisive in making a hat out of leaves and putting it on his head. Although the color is not very good-looking, it does have two layers of protection.

……

……

"Huh? What about Brother Zheng Shu? Hercules was carrying the lion's fur on his shoulders, and he scratched his head a little puzzled when he looked at the place where he had met Zheng Shu before.

The lion of Nemea is indeed worthy of its name, and its invulnerable body makes Hercules, who has strange powers, feel a headache.

Fortunately, the lion seemed to have fought with someone before, so it was not in a particularly good state, and Hercules grabbed a flaw in the opponent's movement, put his hand into the lion's mouth, and at the cost of his own arm scratch, tore off its throat to win the battle.

But even so, because the lion's defense is so outrageous, the actual battle actually took a long time. In addition, Hercules spent a lot of time trying to find a way to peel off its fur, and by the time Hercules returned from the crusade, the time had already come to the morning of the next day.

"Ahh Hercules suddenly slapped the palm of his other hand with his fist, "Is it because I took too long to hunt this lion, so the little brother left first?" That's a pity, I wanted to show off to him. ”

"Show off what?" Zheng Shu's voice came from behind Hercules.

Hearing this voice and feeling the familiar breath behind him, Heracross's face also showed a smile, and he turned his head and said, "Brother Zheng Shu, you haven't left yet, look!" I have slain the lion of Nemea...... Damn, what's going on with you?! ”

Heracross, so surprised that he almost choked on his own saliva. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked up and down at the "giant" that suddenly appeared behind him.

After carefully identifying it, I finally saw some familiar traces from that unfamiliar face, coupled with the similar breath, it was indeed certain that the other party was Zheng Shu. But if he remembers correctly, the last time he saw Brother Zheng Shu, the other party's height should have been nearly two meters or so, right?

What kind of thing did he eat to make him grow from such a "short" height to a height about the same as himself overnight?!

"Don't be surprised, it's really me, after all, I'm not very old, and I'm still in a period of rapid growth and development, so I'm growing a little faster." Zheng Shu talked nonsense with a serious face.

"Human ...... Is it the kind of creature that can grow quickly? And why is it that after just one night, you even have a change in your face?! Hercules looked incredulous.

"It's true, I didn't lie to you, I did grow so tall in one night." Zheng Shu's expression was unusually sincere, "Human body...... It's amazing, isn't it? ”
