Chapter 14 Strength Has Increased Again
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the first God-level challenge. The reward distribution begins…”
“Reward: One Ice-type Beast Core (Level 4)!”
“Reward: One Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 1)!”
“Reward: One Fragnt of the Ice God Seal!”
With just a thought, Qin Feng found a level 4 Ice-type Beast Core in his hand. Without hesitation, he swallowed it.
The core quickly dissolved, transforming into a powerful energy that spread throughout his body, rapidly strengthening him and enhancing his combat abilities…
“Ding! Successfully absorbed Level 4 Beast Core… Ice Affinity reached 100%…”
He had also reached the quasi-Elentalist realm for Ice-type powers.
Qin Feng excitedly pulled up the attribute screen.
Challenger: Qin Feng (Lord-level)
Level: 5 (Quasi-Elentalist realm)
Talent Skill: God-level Devouring
Combat Power Index: 500 points
“My combat power has just reached the threshold for a one-star Elentalist. I’ve also advanced from Elite to Lord-level.”
Qin Feng smiled.
Although he appeared to be at the quasi-Elentalist stage, his actual strength was already comparable to an early-stage one-star Elentalist. At this point, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he was invincible among those of the sa level.
In the next mont, a small glass tube containing a milky white liquid appeared in his hand.
A screen popped up in front of his eyes:
Item Na: Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 1)
Note: This gene serum has no side effects, and its efficacy is 100% stronger than that of ordinary gene serums.
“It has no side effects! That’s fantastic!”
Qin Feng’s face lit up with joy.
On Earth, gene serums were divided into four levels: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4. Taking a Level 1 gene serum could turn an ordinary person into a Level 1 Genetic Warrior. However, these serums had strong rejection rates, with only an 80% success rate. Failure leading to death.
Even for Elentalists, failure to take the serum could result in severe damage, ranging from decreased talent to complete loss of abilities, and in so cases, death.
For this reason, most Elentalists were reluctant to take gene serums, believing it wasn’t worth the risk. Besides, the boost in strength from gene serums was limited compared to the improvent from enhancing elental power.
This led to most Elentalists and physical combat experts avoiding the use of gene serums.
However, there was no denying that those who did take gene serums had stronger physical bodies and a slight edge in combat power.
“Chuchu hasn’t developed her talents yet! Since this gene serum has no side effects, I can give it to her, turning that little girl into a Genetic Warrior.”
Qin Feng smiled at the thought.
If it were an ordinary gene serum, he wouldn’t dare to let Chuchu take it.
“Ding! The system’s store is now activated. The host can browse freely!”
Qin Feng, curious, pulled up the system screen and saw a new store option. He selected the store and was taken to a sales page.
The store only sold four items: Perfect-Level Gene Serums (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4).
“There are so few items available!”
“Ding! A reminder to the host: as your cultivation improves, the system’s store will gradually upgrade, offering more rare items for sale.”
“Currently, this is a Level 1 store.”
Qin Feng nodded, feeling excited for what was to co. If things continued this way, he might even be able to turn Chuchu into an Elentalist.
Chuchu had a dual constitution. During her initial test, her Ice affinity was 0.5, while her other unknown, mysterious affinity reached 0.9—just shy of awakening her talent.
This had left the testing staff feeling regretful at the ti.
The staff also ntioned that this unknown mysterious elent had only been detected in three other people worldwide, none of whom had as high an affinity as Chuchu.
The specifics of this elent would only be known after soone managed to cultivate it, which had piqued Qin Feng’s curiosity.
Qin Feng continued browsing the store’s items.
Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 1): Price: 1.5 million Tong coins
Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 2): Price: 3 million Tong coins
Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 3): Price: 5 million Tong coins
Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 4): Price: 8 million Tong coins
These gene serums were priced the sa as the regular ones outside, but their efficacy was increased by 100% and there were no side effects.
Qin Feng smiled as he read through the listings.
Ordinary Level 2 gene serums could only be taken by Level 1 Genetic Warriors, with a success rate of 70%.
Level 3 gene serums could only be taken by Level 2 Genetic Warriors, with a success rate of 60%.
Level 4 gene serums could only be taken by Level 3 Genetic Warriors, with a success rate of 50%.
Based on these calculations, the success rate for an ordinary person to safely beco a Level 4 Genetic Warrior was only 16.8%.
It wasn’t just a matter of money; it also required a great deal of courage.
With these gene serums, Qin Feng could safely enhance both himself and Chuchu to the fourth gene level without any risk.
The only thing he lacked now was money!
Thinking about the money, Qin Feng clicked on the store’s recycle option.
Here, he could sell beast cores directly, or even the corpses of ferocious and demonic beasts, with prices matching those outside. It was very convenient.
Qin Feng recycled the beast cores he had obtained earlier and instantly received over 5 million Tong coins.
Making money was this easy.
He then spent 4.5 million Tong coins to buy a Level 1 and a Level 2 gene serum, and consud them.
As the Level 1 gene serum entered his body, Qin Feng felt a wave of heat and slight itchiness as if every cell in his body was being soaked and transford. His strength quietly increased.
He closed his eyes, silently absorbing the changes.
This perfect-level gene serum worked extrely fast.
Ten minutes later, the transformation was complete, with no sign of rejection.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully absorbing the Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 1). Combat Power 30 points….”
“The effect really is enhanced by 100%!”
Qin Feng was pleasantly surprised.
Ordinary Level 1 gene serums would typically only increase combat power by around 15 points.
Eagerly, Qin Feng then consud the Level 2 gene serum.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully absorbing the Perfect-Level Gene Serum (Level 2). Combat Power 40 points….”
Qin Feng pulled up his character screen.
Challenger: Qin Feng (Lord-level)
Level: 5 (Quasi-Elentalist realm)
Talent Skill: God-level Devouring
Combat Power Index: 570 points
“At this rate, once I complete my Level 4 gene enhancents, my combat power will reach 700 points! That would put on par with a mid-level one-star Elentalist.”
The combat power threshold for a mid-level one-star Elentalist was 700.
Qin Feng licked his lips, eager for more.
He wanted to consu Level 3 and Level 4 gene serums right away, but he only had about 1.3 million Tong coins left.
It seed that his wish would have to wait until next ti…
