Chapter 1474: Chapter 1475: Successfully Activated
Xu Huo walked out of the detection room and asked, “Are there any risks or side effects?”
“If the activation goes smoothly, there will be no side effects.” Bai Kou looked at him, “Nothing is foolproof, but if it fails, at most you’ll have muscle soreness for a few months, a minor issue.”
“Afraid?” She slightly raised an eyebrow, “Afraid I’ll ss you up or afraid of activation failure?”
Xu Huo smiled, “You also said nothing is foolproof. As the one who has to take the risk, I have to think it through.”
After a pause, he continued, “You should know that soone is following . Are they from the Municipal Governnt?”
“The Municipal Governnt wouldn’t bother tracking a Rank-C Player.” Bai Kou flicked a device beside her, “If they wanted to deal with you, they wouldn’t send soone so weak.”
In other words, a Rank-C Player wouldn’t be on the Municipal Governnt’s radar. If law enforcent was needed, it would definitely be the Law Enforcent Team making a move, to end the fight in the shortest ti and successfully capture the target.
“That person wasn’t weak.” Xu Huo said, “Thanks to the Law Enforcent Team for arriving in ti.”
Bai Kou sneered, clearly not believing his words.
“The Eye of Platinum can’t control all players,” she reminded, “Local player disappearances might have clues, but unless illegal activities are involved, the Law Enforcent Team generally won’t forcibly intervene with out-of-district players.”
“This matter is related to you,” Xu Huo said as well.
“There are many things related to . You don’t expect
to guarantee your personal safety, do you?” Bai Kou gave him a chilly glance.
Xu Huo activated the communicator, projecting a photo of his attacker, “It’s a bother staying in a foreign place. A single one might be followed by a whole bunch, keeping a distance is safest.”
“Suit yourself, but be careful not to capsize in a ditch.” Bai Kou noted the attacker’s characteristics and then led him to another room.
The activation instrunt was shaped similarly to the previously used detection instrunt, it was a full tal suit, wrapping from head to toe.
“There’s a button in front of the right index finger, you can forcibly interrupt if you can’t withstand it.” Bai Kou also switched the connection wires in the room.
Xu Huo stood in as per the instructions, the sensors inside the instrunt were attached to his head, temples, spine, and other positions. The chill of the tal was felt through the clothes. After a prompt of “instrunt connection successful” sounded in the room, the other half of the instrunt closed in and locked.
“Evolver, please concentrate. Activation will start in five seconds, four, three, two, one… Activate!”
The activation process was not as difficult as Xu Huo imagined, at least his reaction wasn’t significant. Initially, he only felt the tal pieces on his body getting slightly hot, followed by a slight vibration from the skin to the inside, sowhat like a uniform wave of power, covering his entire body from different places equally, gradually bringing a sense of relaxation.
Last ti after using the S-type Evolutionary Agent, he felt a slight fatigue, with sowhat sluggish body reactions, a feeling sowhat akin to not getting enough rest. The body operated normally and had plenty of strength, but it always felt not quite comfortable. Now under the stimulation of the instrunt, this subtle fatigue seed to gradually dissipate.
After another ten minutes or so, Xu Huo began to feel his body becoming active, with a desire to move around, but as this activity level increased, he gradually felt his whole body start to expand, like a balloon being continuously inflated.
As the sense of expansion intensified, the body showed a natural repulsion reaction, starting with a slight cracking sensation on the skin, then the blood flow speed increased, followed by accelerated heartbeat and breathing, and then muscles and internal organs—all feeling like they were perated by the shock waves released from the instrunt, even the cells hidden within the internal organs were stimulated!
The rapid expansion of power and the body’s endurance constantly tugged at each other. Xu Huo focused all his energy on himself, each ti feeling the power about to break through the limit, he forcibly held it back. When he really couldn’t bear it, the advanced instrunts from the Eye of Platinum would adjust the shock wave intensity, pulling back to the critical point, probing his limits without letting him collapse.
After being tugged at this critical point dozens of tis, Xu Huo was almost exhausted, feeling his mouth and nose filled with dry blood, making it difficult to breathe. Just as he was about to press the stop button, a notification sounded from the instrunt:
“Activation is about to end. There will be a five-minute repair session next. Please do not forcibly detach.”
Xu Huo relaxed slightly, leaning back in the instrunt, feeling the gentle shock waves repeatedly penetrating his body, soothing the pain from inside out.
After the repair ended, he stepped out of the instrunt with a small gait.
Bai Kou was leaning against the door waiting for him, and seeing this, she laughed, “Not bad, you could still co out standing.”
“How were the activation results?” Xu Huo asked.
“Since you used a different potion, within the potion range, your body has undergone the most evolution. Although it didn’t reach one hundred percent, it far exceeded the results of other potions. Moreover, you didn’t misuse the potion, so the absorption went well, the process was smooth, the activation rate has exceeded 85%, although the evolution rate didn’t increase.” Bai Kou explained in detail, “However, when you first used the potion, you already maximized the evolution rate, so it’s normal that the evolution rate didn’t increase, and the potion is now almost digested. You can use the next injection soon.”
“But you cannot use the activation instrunts again within a year.”
“The body’s and mind’s endurance has limits, frequent use might cause permanent damage to the body. Compared to saving a bit of ti digesting the potion, the cost is too high.”
Having said all she needed to, Bai Kou glanced at her watch, “Have lunch at the lab before you go.”
Xu Huo only then realized it was already the afternoon. Once his tense mind relaxed, hunger imdiately set in.
The lab had a cafeteria, but it was past lunchti. No staff remained inside, all the food was made by household robots. Bai Kou first ordered a five-person set al, “Order more if it’s not enough.”
Xu Huo nodded slightly.
After that, the two didn’t speak again, both quickly eating their food with their heads down, especially Bai Kou, who visibly quickened her pace after receiving a ssage.
There was no decorum or elegance as in Rose Castle and the chanical Castle. After eating, she set her dishes down, “I have sothing to do. Later, take my car to the chanical Castle.”
Xu Huo politely inquired, “Do you need my help?”
Bai Kou glanced at him sideways, “Can you even help?”
There was no need to say anything more. Bai Kou left the cafeteria, and a female researcher entered, courteously giving him two bottles of stamina recovery potion, hinting that he could leave.
