Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Novel - Chapter 2217
Chapter 2217 Potion
Just now, several security guards from OmniTech Company moved the boxes from the cart and piled them up there.
….
“Hmm, thank you all for participating in the experiment. Relax a little, there won’t be any risks in the experiment. Now, do you see those seven boxes? Each box contains a corresponding potion. You just need to inject all seven potions one by one.”
The crowd looked at each other.
Inject experimental potions?
Cheng Fan saw the crowd’s expressions and explained, “Everyone, please rest assured, the potions have been tested for toxicity and there won’t be any problems.”
“Let’s begin.”
Several participants in the human trial had prepared themselves mentally in advance, but having to inject so many potions at once still caught them off guard.
Wow, in the past tests, they usually tried to test only one potion at a time to avoid interference between drugs affecting the test results.
Now, all of a sudden, they were going to inject seven needles?
Were they really not afraid of the experimental data being interfered with?
Watching as the crowd stood still without moving, Shi Yanwu frowned, “Begin!”
“Yes, sir!”
Three Federation soldiers obeyed the order, marching towards the boxes in formation. They opened the boxes to reveal them packed full of syringes.
The Federation soldiers proceeded to inject the potions into their bodies one by one.
There seemed to be no immediate change.
Since they had come this far, the other three individuals also summoned their courage, one by one injecting the potions into their bodies.
Seven injections in a row.
After completing the injections, the crowd returned to their original positions, standing in a line.
Cheng Fan felt somewhat uncertain, looking to a team member beside him, he quietly asked, “How do you feel?”
“I feel… um… strangely comfortable, actually…”
The team member clenched and unclenched their fists several times, nodding, “I feel much better than before, actually.”
Hmm?
Cheng Fan was suspicious.
“Alright, the injections are completed,” Fang Heng clapped his hands, drawing everyone’s attention and continued, “Now, you can once again utilize the power of the Obsidian Stone for mental honing, just like when you all underwent Tier 1 cultivation in the past.”
What?
Utilize the Obsidian Stone for the next step of cultivation?
The crowd listened, their expressions subtly changing.
Those participating in the human trials had already reached the limit of what they could endure in mental honing.
Normally, with age, before the age of 40, after prolonged training, the limit of mental honing might increase slightly.
It was for this reason that every two years, the Federation conducted unified training sessions to attempt to break through the limit of mental honing and enhance psychic abilities.
Each attempt to break the limit, if successful, was fine, but if failed, it would inevitably cause considerable damage to the body. Afterward, they would need to rest and recuperate for almost half a month. In extreme cases, one might even lose their life.
Seeing the hesitation among the crowd once again, Shi Yanwu couldn’t help but frown and said in a deep voice, “This is an order! Why haven’t you started yet?!”
“Yes!”
The three Federation psychic enhancers accepted the command and walked towards the Obsidian Stone ahead.
Facing the Obsidian Stone, the three of them sat cross-legged, focusing their minds to proceed with the next step of meditation cultivation.
The three psychics from OmniTech Company kept an eye out, taking a few hesitant steps and quietly observing the state of the three Federation testers.
Huh?
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the three of them simultaneously.
They realized that the situation didn’t seem as bad as they had imagined.
After entering the state of meditation, the three Federation members quieted down and weren’t forcefully forced out of meditation due to backlash.
This meant that they had entered the state of mental honing!
Could it be that the potion they just used was really effective?
Cheng Fan’s eyes lit up as he saw the situation unfold.
If the potion had no effect, these people would have fainted long ago due to being unable to withstand the mental honing.
Of course, there could be some coincidences, such as them coincidentally experiencing significant breakthroughs during this period.
But the probability of this was very low, not to mention all three of them experiencing such a rare probability simultaneously.
Cheng Fan urged his subordinate team members, “What are you standing around for? Why aren’t you following along?”
The three psychics from OmniTech Company participating in the test knew they couldn’t delay any longer, so they had no choice but to follow along and sit cross-legged in front of the Obsidian Stone, entering a state of meditation.
Soon, they also noticed something unusual.
The mental honing felt exceptionally smooth and fluid!
It felt as if they were back to the state when they first encountered meditation.
The power of the mind’s essence was continuously increasing.
Five minutes later.
Meditation continued.
The underground warehouse fell into silence. The faces of everyone present showed hints of astonishment and excitement, occasionally glancing at Fang Heng.
With the current situation, the experiment was probably successful!
All six people had successfully entered the state of mental honing simultaneously! And it had lasted for a full five minutes! This couldn’t be just luck. There must be some breakthroughs each of them could explain!
It must be related to the experimental potion just now!
That potion!
How did it achieve this?
Both Cheng Fan and Shi Yanwu were scholars of psychic studies, and they were more excited than ordinary people to discover that there could be further breakthroughs in mental honing.
Shi Yanwu couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Fang Heng, the potion you just used…”
“It’s a special modified potion for genetic enhancement.”
Fang Heng looked at the individuals currently undergoing cultivation and explained, “After taking the potion, it can permanently enhance the body’s various attributes and resistances. Through my research, I found that practicing psychic cultivation continuously decreases the body’s attributes. As the body gradually weakens, it reaches a point where it can no longer withstand the mental honing of the Obsidian Stone. This is why psychic abilities reach their so-called ‘limit.’”
After Fang Heng’s explanation, everyone nodded silently.
This explanation was also a mainstream viewpoint, and the Federation had conducted many targeted experiments on it, but they had never found a good solution.
Fang Heng’s solution was simple: directly enhance the body’s qualities through the potion!
As for the potion, it was extracted through Qiu Yaokang’s research on the zombie virus.
Currently, in the laboratories of the Zombie Apocalypse, they had successfully developed seven special potions through research on the Hila virus. After consuming all of them, the total physical attributes would increase by at least 12 points!
Those with better talents could even increase by 15 points, and it was possible to reach 20 points under the limit state.
Even if only the minimum of 12 points was increased, it would be enough for psychic scholars to undergo another thorough ‘mental honing’ training, significantly increasing their psychic levels!
Soon, people began to withdraw from the cultivation state.
After all, the various physical qualities of the psychic scholars participating in the trial were already very weak. Merely increasing by 15 points was far from achieving complete immunity to mental honing, quickly reaching the limit of single cultivation.
But it hadn’t reached the limit of cultivation where psychic abilities could be improved yet!
