I was looking for any new creatures, knowing from experience, the last jump in difficulty is immense with each passing zone, with creatures getting exponentially stronger each time...
Focusing for a little bit, I used a power shown in the second game. Viral sonar. It would allow me to scan creatures around me within a couple kilometers. Spotting the first foe, I ran towards it. Analyzing how strong it is from afar before making my move.
Thinking to myself before my excitement overtook me. Going over what I have and don't have. My strength and weakness.
Since I couldn't use any weapons of the red-light, my hands would have to do, a weird but somewhat understandable nerf. The bio-weapons would grow with me the stronger I get, that was a cheat in itself.
I could see why the system removed its ability, as well as the shapeshifting too, they were busted in game, with the scanners not even being able to pick you up, or even mercer when shapeshifting, showing his experience with it to high levels.
With my analysis over. I readied myself for battle.
I rushed it, with us roughly having the same speed and it being a couple times stronger than me was a little bit of a challenge, But I had the edge in pure perception. Its attacks moved at literal snails pace to, probably even slower. My perception being able to go up to 350 times my normal vision if I focused to the maximum. Showing the massive boost my nervous-system underwent with the virus, But I had a feeling It was more than just the virus at play. Shrugging the thought off, I continued.
Currently, I could focus forever due to my infinite stamina and basically instant regeneration. I had no drawbacks, with everything to gain. But that wouldn't be much fun, so I lowered my perception to 50% more than that of my normal perception. Even though I had this power, I still wanted experience.
Focusing once more on the battle. Dodging its claw attack to the right, I delivered a thunderous counter to its left abdomen, seemingly stammering it for a bit, Its body was far harder than steel. I winced a bit, feeling pain. My knuckles were now exposed showing my iron bones beneath the skin, but it healed immediately and came back little bit stronger. I could feel it.
The fight continued for another 15 minutes of me dodging a parrying its blows, but I withered it down slowly, with my knuckles no longer being destroyed by hitting its skin alone, with it now being perfectly fine after prolonged abuse. Showing how good my adaption is paired with evolution.
The creature now weak, its breath became shaky, with blood coming from its mouth. "Stop struggling and become apart of me", I said outload. It stammered a bit more before dying. I walked towards it, willing my red tendrils to consume its body. I felt it merging inside my body, with its life flashing before my eyes. Stopping for a bit, I felt great changes once more occur within.
My muscles twitching uncontrollably, with my current strength felt as if it was doubling, and my bones hardening beyond belief. I figured that its bones were harder than steel, But this evolution was ridiculous, My bones convulsed and rattled within my body.
Whenever I evolved it was swift and easy, but all evolutions so far have taken time?, I thought to myself for a bit more before coming up with some sort of a logical conclusion.
' My physique was never normal, yes. I was still human... on paper, but my body was 'different', no training can make a human go beyond their genetic boundary, but my body did, not only that. It made my look better as well as gaining major height within a couple days and weeks. ', I thought to myself.
I knew that my body was special prior to all of this, but could it be working in tandem with my virus? That could be an explanation, well a decent one for now.
After the convulsions have finished, my body felt far heavier than normal, my height increased once more too. I decided to check my status, I never looked it after gaining the virus, and fighting on earth either.

I feel like I should be impressed, but all I could call this was a solid foundation at best, beings Dr. strange could wipe me from the face of the planet, and beings on lucifer morningstar's level could think me away without even moving. I was strong among the weak and weak among the strong. A funny but true analogy.
My strength had increased tremendously, I could more than confidently say that enemies relative to me in my base speed and strength are utterly fucked. My perception is 400 times than that of normal, with my fighting techniques and growth in battle, coupled with my adaption and evolution abilities. I was pretty powerful for now.
I glanced towards my status once more, only to see that many of my perks have been enhanced by the red-light, but an even further look, I saw a new section, called 'title', I gained it somehow, and apparently I was labeled an 'abomination' by the system, clicking on it, I wanted to see if it could give a description, which it did, surprisingly.
________
ABOMINATION- YOU ARE THE BANE OF THIS REALITY! YOUR EXISTENCE IS AN ANOMOLY IN AND OF ITSELF, WITH YOUR MEAR PRESENCE CREATING FEAR WITHIN ANY BEING NO MATTER HOW POWERFUL. YOUR FUTURE IS NOW INCOMPREHENSIBLE. YOU NOW ALERT ENEMIES TO YOUR LOCATION, TRIGGERING THEIR PRIMAL INSTINCTS TO LIVE. ( THIS TITLES EFFECT CAN BE TOGGLED ON/OFF )

" Cool ", moving on. Actually, I think I might keep it on, I don't need to find enemies anymore. They would just come to me, which means easier food and easier strength gains, I thought to myself. " Now... lets wait for my dinner to come to me ".
