Chapter 301: Chapter 301: Injection (Second Update)

Su Ming gathered information from online sources and books.

Although many companies produced gene injections, the quality varied significantly due to differing levels of expertise.

These genetic potions could enhance a person’s body but also came with side effects, which in severe cases even led to deformities and death. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Moreover, if the initial genetic potion injected was subpar, subsequent injections of more advanced potions would be less effective. It would be akin to ruining the foundation.

However, all sources and data clearly indicated that the genetic potions produced by Xi Guang Laboratory were the best.

But even among the models produced by Xi Guang Laboratory, there were differences in quality.

Nonetheless, information about the genetic potions produced by Xi Guang Laboratory was top secret, and he couldn’t find out what tier the model gifted to him by Li Mengqi belonged to.

At that moment, Celeste’s charming virtual avatar popped up on Su Ming’s phone screen, and she pouted as she spoke.

"Su Ming, you didn’t even tell me when you came back."

"I can’t contact you, so how can I find you?" Su Ming responded with a smile.

"I suppose that’s true, so I’ll forgive you." Celeste replied cheerfully.

"Celeste, your timing is perfect. I have something to ask you."

"Sure!"

"Is this genetic potion produced by Xi Guang Laboratory, and is the quality good?" Su Ming directly opened the box to show Celeste.

"Type I·SRD gene injection, produced at Xi Guang Laboratory, is the newest genetic potion developed by Xi Guang Laboratory. It’s an all-round enhancer, not comparable to those inferior products that only enhance one aspect. There are currently four left in the Xi Guang Laboratory inventory..."

"Stop, don’t tell me the rest, that’s confidential. Just tell me, does injecting this potion have any side effects?" Su Ming asked the most concerning question.

"Not at all, this gene injection is a perfect type, it’s purely beneficial to the body and has no downsides!" Celeste replied with certainty.

"Good, then I’ll inject it." Upon hearing Celeste’s answer, Su Ming didn’t hesitate and immediately opened the safety mechanism on the cryogenic box.

As the cryogenic box opened, a burst of cold air escaped.

Through the cold mist, one could see a syringe placed inside the box.

The syringe was filled with a very beautiful blue liquid, clearly of a high grade.

"Is there a specific way to inject it?" Su Ming asked Celeste.

"No, just inject it in the usual spot."

Celeste replied with confidence.

Su Ming then picked up the gene injection, removed the protective cap from the needle, and without hesitation, plunged it into his arm and injected the substance.

Just as Su Ming finished injecting himself.

He felt his heart jump violently.

It was as if someone had grabbed it tightly, followed by intense pain spreading through all his muscles.

His inner organs felt as if they were being gnawed on by countless ants.

The intense pain made even breathing feel excruciatingly painful, and large drops of sweat beaded on his forehead.

Su Ming bit down on his teeth, lying on the table, struggling to endure the pain, and asked Celeste with difficulty.

"Celeste, didn’t you say there were no side effects? Why does it hurt so much?"

"Indeed, there are no side effects. After the genetic potion is injected, there won’t be any hidden dangers. The genetic chain won’t twist or collapse, and there will be only positive feedback effects. All bodily functions will be enhanced! It won’t be like some potions that enhance the body but lead to a drop in intelligence and increased irritability and aggression! Of course, enhancing the body will definitely hurt a bit during the process. This kind of discomfort is really not considered a side effect compared to the power gained."

Celeste explained to Su Ming.

"Just give me a heads up next time!"

Su Ming was speechless.

"Keep it up! I think this shouldn’t be much for you,"

Celeste said with great trust.

Su Ming took a deep breath and gritted his teeth to keep going.

Time trickled away!

About half an hour later, the pain began to gradually subside.

Su Ming’s clothes were soaked with sweat.

However, as the pain faded, Su Ming suddenly felt his mind was sharper, and his body felt extremely comfortable.

He picked up a pen from the table and exerted a little force.

Crack!

The pen was crushed in his grip.

Su Ming’s heart skipped a beat, he hadn’t expected his strength to be so greatly enhanced.

"Feeling great after the injection, aren’t you?"

Celeste asked with a smile.

"It feels really good."

"Remember, the Genetic Potion also takes time to be digested and adapted to. Don’t go for a Type II injection for a short period, and you’d better strengthen your training. This will help you absorb and adapt better!"

"Alright, any other precautions?"

Su Ming nodded slightly in response.

"Yes, for genetic potion injections, always choose quality over quantity. Don’t resort to inferior products; you’ll regret it later and won’t be able to properly make up for it."

Celeste advised Su Ming.

"You mean, you want me to only use those produced by Xi Guang Laboratory."

"That would be best. Of course, if you can get your hands on the Royal Family’s exclusive Genetic Potion from the Dark Star Empire or the Priest’s Genetic Potion from the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country, those would also work."

"Let’s forget about that."

Su Ming dismissed the idea without a second thought.

Danube Star Sea, Empire’s Third Expeditionary Army, Blood Ridge Fortress.

A figure rose from the bottom of a pool filled with glowing green liquid.

Splat~

As the viscous liquid splashed, a towering man with well-defined muscles as hard as steel emerged. His face was chiseled, and his eyes, like those of a wild beast, glinted with ruthless coldness. His dark and stiff beard added to his dangerously intimidating presence. Taking slow steps, he ascended the stairs from the bottom of the pool.

At that moment, maids in translucent white dresses, revealing their graceful figures, approached, bending to hand him towels. They gently wiped off the remaining liquid from his body and then respectfully stepped back.

Then, a middle-aged man wearing a red Fourth Generation Prosthetic Armor, three meters tall, with scars all over his face exuding a fierce aura, came forward holding a small mechanical glass jar.

Inside the mechanical glass jar was a pulsating fresh red heart, covered with silver tubes.

The towering man coldly reached out with his left hand to take the mechanical glass jar and directly extended his right hand towards his left chest.

The Prosthetic Armor-clad man hastily said in a deep voice,

"Lord Aus, please don’t, it would be safer to use the auxiliary machine."

"No need, Nozter!"

Aus, expressionless, made a claw with his fingers and plunged them straight into his left chest.

Zzt~

Blood spurted out immediately.
