I remember leaving this novel for a bit so I can binge read it but I forgot the title. The world is in some kind of apocalypse(?) and everyone is out and about leveling up. The difference between this and other novels is that when they actually pick a stat point it changes their physique to match it. I remember the mc picks out something like endurance/vitality/defense(?) and becomes hulk-ish as the novel goes on. He doesn't dump it all on it though since he can't move if it gets too high, he also picks out strength and dex but mostly on the defense build.
It might be Infinite Competitive Dungeon Society but in that one he is only described as hulk-like for the first dozen or so chapters, then he starts looking normal. It sounds kind of like City of Terror which is an amazing novel that was unfortunately dropped, except the MC in that is a bit of an all-rounder, but he does focus on strength and defense. (also unlike ICDS, this never describes the MC using the word hulk). If it isn't either of these then I am not sure what the novel is.
If it was an original novel and not a translated one then I vaguely remember something like that. Did the mc get trapped in a weird dungeon while everyone else went to the tutorial, and did he use almost solely his fists and a special aura he had?
I'm pretty sure it's The new world, MC it's trapped on a dungeon, and to survive pump stamina, endurance and strenght, he become ugly as hell, so much that people call him a troll
Thanks for the replies they sound good, I will check them out. ICDS Sounds really close to it, so it might be it.
Thank you all, I foĆ¹nd it plus another interesting read. It's the new world from rrl. I recognized it as soon as I saw the quotes he gets. However ICDS is a fun read too so thats a bonus.
