The Martial Unity

The first step he was to take now that he had already entered his training phase was to begin training his body to produce an excess of myostatin to counter the Herenal Virus when he infected his body with it. Myostatin limited muscle growth, thus training his body to produce an excess of it to counter the virus that consumed the protein was necessary to maintain his natural physique when he wasn't using Hypertrophic Surge.

The best way to do this was to simply train his body to be able to counter the virus in his body. Specifically, training it to produce excess myostatin to counter the shortage of myostatin caused by the virus. Only when the excess canceled out the shortage would his body be able to maintain its natural physique.

That was the first step. Introducing the virus into his body and ensuring the body learned to coexist with the virus by simply canceling its negative effects. The virus would eat myostatin, while the body would continuously produce it. This would create the balance allowing his body to remain as it was.

The second step was learning how to switch off the excess production of myostatin from the body.

After all, the Hypertrophic Surge technique required all the myostatin in his body to be gone. With that protein gone, the muscles would no longer be hampered and could grow bigger and stronger. That was the essence of the Hypertrophic Surge technique after all. It made his muscles grow larger and denser by getting rid of all the myostatin in the body by allowing the virus to eat or destroy all of it.

Thus, he needed a way to command the body to stop producing extra myostatin to counter the myostatin-eating virus, only then could the Hypertrophic Surge technique be activated by the virus eating up the myostatin.

This sounded extremely difficult, but he had found a viable solution for this in training methodologies that involved associating triggers with the desired triggerable effect. Unfortunately, this part required either the proficient use of self-hypnosis or hypnosis from another Martial Artist.

Rui definitely intended to learn hypnotic techniques in the future, but for now, Project Metabody took precedence. Thus he relied on the patronage of Master Deivos to get a Martial Senior to hypnotize Rui for him.
