Chereads / The Immortal [Invincible] / Chapter 8 - New Body

Chapter 8 - New Body

Thirteen hours later, the new body's fingers suddenly moved and from there, it slowly started to move though slightly as Henry's consciousness was transferred into it. 

The body still lay as it was but its fingers continued moving according to Henry's instructions. He wanted to become accustomed to the body after all at the moment he was like a baby and needed to relearn everything from walking to picking up his keys.

Henry remained unmoving for hours as the body gradually fell under his control. When he was certain that he now had primary control over the body, 

Henry sat up slowly and then unplugged himself from the various devices that previously supported the body except for the health monitor.

"Ah lu be me he" Henry said testing out his vocal cords and jaw movement

"Ok this should be working for now" Henry said slowly to prevent himself from biting his tongue

After that, Henry stood up shakingly and then started performing a set of basic exercises to quickly get accustomed to the body.

Since the body was designed after his own, he was extremely familiar with it but even then he still needed some time to truly get used to the body.

"Six, open the training room," Henry said as he staggeringly walked out of the lab 

"Yes sir, Should I turn off lockdown mode" Six asked

"No" Henry replied then walked into the training room and started training his body all over again.

This process could also serve as a means for Henry to grow stronger as his body's natural healing factor was augmented by his immortality making it possible to heal fast and extremelyso.

This simply means that normal exercises which normally improves the body by destroying the muscle tissues and reconstructing them stronger worked faster than that of other people.

Henry spent only one day getting used to his new body and all the other upgrades he gave it. Henry felt that the body did not only have the potential to become the strongest being in existence, it was already two(2) times as strong as he was.

Considering that the normal Immortal was a Class 100 character meaning that he had the strength to lift up to 100 tons, this was a lot. With this type of strength, he didn't need to fear or even be wary around Nolan.

Henry's physical strength wasn't the only thing that improved, his speed, reflexes and durability were on a whole different level. 

He could run at speeds above the speed of sound meaning he and Red Rush should be close to each other in terms of speed. 

His durability was just something else with his newly gained Smart atoms working for him but that wasn't the only thing Henry had improved in his body.

As a man who valued knowledge above all else, Henry had created an organic computer at the base of his skull that held even more computing power than most quantum computers along with 500 Geobytes of space. 

This was basically Henry creating a second brain for himself since the organic computer supported the brain in everything.

With his new brain's extremely fast processing speed, a day was enough for Henry to get used to his new body but he knew this wasn't all his second brain was capable of. 

It was a computer, though one that relied on something else to work, it was still a computer. For the second brain to fulfil its purpose as a computer, it needed to have its connector activated.

The connector was a small piece of tech that allowed Henry to upload and download things to and from the organic computer inside him. 

Henry planned to basically filter the internet and download all useful information into himself as he believed that this world still had more knowledge to offer than he already possessed after all from what he knew, Atom Eve got her superpowers from a research facility. 

Imagine what kind of knowledge you have to hold to give someone such a superpower.

A day later, Henry hovered out of the training room with a smile. Despite the continuous training in which he had done, he didn't feel tired or hungry at all, instead, he had become stronger than he was initially, Henry felt really proud of his creation.

"Six have you created the packs" Henry asked as he hovered over his computer

"Yes sir, the packs have been organized according to difficulty and types" Six replied and Henry smiled

"Nice, you are really improving" Henry replied as he started going through the files on the table.

The packs were all files that contained things related to a specific topic though designed in the same way that a language pack for a computer is. 

Henry checked all of them out to ensure nothing was wrong with them. Seeing that the files were fine, Henry reached into one of the drawers around him and pulled out a phone. 

The phone looked extremely normal but unfortunately, it wasn't as it was the only thing that could connect to the computer in him.

Henry placed the phone on the screen as it synced to the computer and he uploaded all the packs on the screen to the phone. 

This took a couple of minutes since there were many packs to upload. A few minutes later, the packs had all been uploaded to the phone

"Now to test this out" Henry thought then uploaded the packs on the phone to the computer inside him

Immediately after the first one, Henry felt a mild flow of information rush into his mind and a few seconds later, Henry suddenly knew every major or even minor language in existence even if it was fictional... at least on Earth. He had uploaded the language pack to his new brain.

"Wow, it's even better than I thought" Henry thought to himself as his second brain continued processing the information it just received at unbelievable speeds making it seem as though he had learnt basically every language in the world instantly
