Chapter 187: W-virus Enhancement Potion

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After five days, on the highest floor of the 250-story gold and gray skyscraper inside Storm City…

“Is it necessary?” said a voice whose tone was filled with doubt .

“Yes!”

“How much?”

“At least 1,000 ml!”

“Can you take less?”

“No!” The answer was firm .

“All right, then…”

Feng Luo rolled up his sleeves in resignation as he looked at Lin, who wore her black-bordered high-tech glasses while completely focused on him . She inserted a blood-extraction device attached with a transparent test tube into his arm . Fresh blood flowed into the test tube through three silver needles on the device that automatically tracked down blood .

As his blood was being extracted, since he didn’t have anything to do, Feng Luo raised his head and looked outside the window where an airship would occasionally fly across the sky .

“Say, your laboratory is located in such a high place,” he said . “Ignoring the fact that some people might be afraid of heights, if the Evolution Virus spread inside this densely populated city, wouldn’t that pose a huge problem?”

Lin relaxed her grip on the blood extraction device, pushed her glasses, and said, “Relax . I have the most secure defense mechanism and intelligence system . It’s absolutely impossible to lose control!”

After that, a silver mechanical arm extended and appeared from the floor that had cracked open . It grabbed the metallic silver test tube containing the blood that had just been extracted before returning beneath the floor .

Lin spoke to a red king parrot standing on a bird stand beside her that was continuously combing its feathers . “Store it in the storage rack number 32 . Execute S-01 storage method…”

The red parrot opened its mouth, nodded its head, and used a cute, dumb voice to say, “Roger!”

After that, it flapped its wings . Its silhouette, as well as the stand it was standing on, faded before they gradually disappearing from the room .

“Yeah, I almost forgot that you are a Master-level Chip Expert . But the virtual image of your supercomputer is a bit…”

Lin turned around to look at Feng Luo with an odd gaze . “A bit what?” But after that, she looked like she had just remembered something as data flowed across her black glasses . “Oh, that’s right . This is for you!”

Ka!

The ground beside Feng Luo split open, and a gray mechanical arm appeared and placed a silver password-protected box in front of Feng Luo . After that, the alloy lock on the box transformed before it opened with a clack!

Inside the box were four neatly placed injection tubes with slightly different colors .

Injection tubes… Could it be? Feng Luo thought and immediately checked the stats of the contents of the tubes .

Primary Evolution Virus (W) Enhancement Potion – Type I

100% integration success rate after use . Obtains: Vitality +10, HP +300 . All energy resistance +5% . Base HP Recovery Rate +20% . Acquires resistance to some primary Evolution Virus mutation .

Grade: Perfect

Upon seeing the stats of the first potion, Feng Luo could not help himself and exclaimed, “Enhancement potion! You’ve already created them!”

Lin nodded with confidence . “Yup!”

“But why are there four? Moreover, the colors are different . ”

Feng Luo then shifted his attention to the second potion .

Primary Evolution Virus (W) Enhancement Potion – Type II

100% integration success rate after use . Obtains: Intelligence +10, MP +300 . Energy Condensation Rate +5%, Base MP Recovery Rate +20% . Acquires resistance to some primary Evolution Virus mutation .

Grade: Perfect

Then Feng Luo understood .

Lin nodded and said, “Yes, these four potions enhance the main physical attributes . Namely, Vitality, Strength, Agility, and Intelligence . And the bonus stat enhancement is also associated with the main stat . ”

Feng Luo’s eyes shone as he immediately thought of the key question . “So, what’s the maximum number a person can use?”

“Theoretically, a person can only use four! At most!” Lin answered . “Every time an enhancement potion like this is used, the body will create some resistance, which causes potions of the same color to lose their effect . Even the effects of potions of other colors may be substantially weakened . Theoretically, only the first four will have any effect . As for the fifth, it will have no effect whatsoever!”

Feng Luo understood now . It was clear that the system wanted the player to make a choice . The first enhancement potion to be used would be for the stat that suited one’s profession, and the less important a stat was to that particular profession, the more uses it had at a later stage .

Before Feng Luo could extend his hand to grab the potion, Lin suddenly said, “Oh, that’s right . There’s also this . Before you take the potions, you must sign this . ”

The virtual red king parrot appeared and flew a virtual paper contract to him .

“Cooperation and Dividend Agreement of the Enhancement Potion!”

Feng Luo browsed through the contents of the agreement with suspicion and noticed that the main content was to prove that he and Lin worked together to establish a company to research, market jointly, and sell this type of enhancement potion . And, in the agreement, it noted that he needed to invest 30 million credits in the initial stage to ensure further research and manufacturing of the potion .

“30 million credits!”

Feng Luo suddenly realized that everything related to Lin would require a huge initial investment . Last time, the T-virus Enhancement Potion had been worth around two to three million credits, and this time, the cost had gone up tenfold to 30 million credits!

However, he knew the potential of the enhancement potion . In a sense, even if it were not just 30 million but 300 million credits, if it were possible, he would still do whatever it took to borrow the sum .

But what is this clause? ‘B Party needs to provide his blood for the manufacturing and research of the potion in the long-term . At least once a month on average, and every time, the amount must not be below 1,000 ml!’ This sentence made Feng Luo slightly dumbfounded . So that’s why Lin took my blood earlier . It’s for this . But why is my blood related to the manufacturing and research of this Evolution Virus Enhancement Potion?

“It’s because your blood cells are one of the main ingredients of this type of Enhancement Potion!” Lin adjusted her glasses . In between them, a complex virtual 3D image of blood and cells, which Feng Luo did not entirely understand, appeared .

“The structure of the potion you gave me was very complex . Although I’ve been able to decipher all the ingredients of it, there were many problems throughout the manufacturing process . I’ve tried all kinds of methods to try to extract the T-virus from the samples you brought back and synthesize potions with similar functions, but I did not succeed!”

Lin’s technical glasses shot a ray into the 3D image in front of them both . Then the 3D image was enlarged as the scene began to move . However, Feng Luo did not understand at all . Lin might as well have been playing the lute to a cow .

“It was not until later that I gave up the T-virus and turned to trying to use the blood I extracted from you on the Hui Yi Hao cruise ship back then to create a similar potion using my own manufacturing process, which provided me with an unexpected breakthrough!”

“My blood? How?” Feng Luo was first shocked . Then he thought of something . “Could it be… Is it because it integrated with the Evolution Virus?”

Feng Luo’s blood had actually integrated with the Mutated Evolution Virus inside the giant python’s body . Moreover, due to his “Evolutionary” talent, perhaps had been other mutations .
