Chapter 233: Interview Passed, Go Develop The [holy Light Extreme Warrior]!
They busied themselves for nearly three hours. In the end, Nie Yin directly hung a powerful life extension blood bottle on the unconscious orc experimental subject; and Yuan Zhu also took action multiple times, using Holy Light to overdraw the orc’s life potential and cast inferior healing techniques.
The long reinforcement transformation experiment was finally over.
Looking at the unconscious orc suspended high by iron chains, its body surface covered with needle holes and bloodstains. Its whole body was swollen more than twice over, with subcutaneous muscles constantly wriggling and twitching, bulging with irregular, asymmetrical grape-like particles.
Every pore emitted a eerie aura, looking utterly miserable, not at all like a ‘physical body reinforcement transformer’, but more like a radiation-mutated freak.
Yuan Zhu had a doubtful expression: “Is it over just like that?”
Why hadn’t he sensed the orc getting stronger? Instead, he felt this orc was about to die?
Nie Yin: “It needs time to recuperate, waiting for the Body Tempering Fluid injected into the muscles to fully fuse with the muscle fibers, and to shift from passive intake to spontaneously secreting ‘Quasi-Body Tempering Fluid’ as a biological hormone, thereby spreading throughout the body, allowing all muscle tissues to complete ‘mutation’. This process takes time. During this period, its health won’t be great and it needs ample food and nutrients to help the body transition.”
Yuan Zhu nodded in understanding, very much in line with biology: “But it looks like it’s about to die. Are your Frog School body modifications all this risky?”
“Not at all, mainly because I was eager for quick success. Standard Phase 1 modification surgery is done at least once every three days, for limbs and head, chest, abdomen, totaling 7 times. Depending on the subject’s health and rejection reaction, it lasts 3 to 5 weeks. This orc is so weak because I compressed the modification duration to within 3 hours.”
Yuan Zhu: ??!
“You say you compressed 3 weeks of modification into within 3 hours?”
Now, the look he gave the exhausted, unconscious orc was filled with admiration. No longer doubting the ‘modification surgery’ risks, he instead began questioning this orc ‘why aren’t you dead yet?’
Nie Yin nodded: “Yes, you told me not to pity it and to go all out. Also, I heard your desire and urgency for modification to obtain an Extreme Warrior. Plus, the orc’s physical qualities far exceed humans, with stronger endurance, no need for excessive concern. Finally, it’s no ordinary thing; it has already undergone one round of pollution reinforcement beforehand, with even stronger qualities and higher tolerance.”
Hearing Nie Yin’s reasoned response, Yuan Zhu didn’t know what to say, just circling around the ‘orc’ while observing this old user through Anti-Law.
Good news, ignoring Nie Yin’s Anti-Law treaty, the Anti-Law Contract he signed with the orc had even vaguer content, stronger control.
The Shadow Power he provided to Nie Yin was without side effects, a half-free contribution; the goal was for her to freely wield and manipulate Shadow Power for related research, providing more ‘Supernatural Knowledge, technology, patents’ for Anti-Law.Shadow as Boss Template.
But the orc’s positioning was different; Yuan Zhu was purely ‘buying its life’. As long as he unilaterally kept investing in it, the orc’s Gratitude Loan would automatically accumulate, not allowed to refuse this ‘kindness’, until crushed by debt, forced to pawn even its ‘soul’ to repay.
Thus, this round of Extreme Warrior modification surgery was also counted into the Anti-Law Gratitude Loan. Equivalent to Yuan Zhu spending a fortune to hire Frog School expert Nie Yin to invest in Mixed-Blood No.1 with Extreme Warrior (Supernatural System), granting it unlimited upgrade potential, stepping into the supernatural great path!
He had thought this ‘gratitude’ would become a massive ‘debt’ in Anti-Law, forcing the orc to further compromise with him, even control its life and death.
The good news was the Gratitude Loan increased, the bad news was the increase was very small, far beyond his expectations.
Clearly successfully granting the mixed-blood orc a mature ‘supernatural path’, yet Anti-Law didn’t increase much. Using the authority of Anti-Law Master, he deeply examined this ‘contract’ and found the issue.
The reinforcement improvement was too weak, and the ‘Supernatural System’ very illusory, ethereal, unstable, in an ambiguous void state.
Yuan Zhu pointed at the comatose humanoid orc meat lump and suddenly asked: “Extreme Warrior should be the Frog God’s Supernatural System, why is the ‘Frog-Type pollution’ in its body so faint? Does it count as an Extreme Warrior?”
Nie Yin nodded: “It does. It has already stepped through the threshold of the Power Path, but is still some distance from becoming a formal Frog God Warrior. First, it needs to get through the weakness period, ensuring its physical body can secrete ‘Quasi-Body Tempering Fluid’ components to erode all muscles. Second, it needs lots of food intake to supplement nutrients, then through learned training methods, it can continuously tap the physical body (muscle) potential, continuously growing power and improving physical qualities.”
“After the physical body base potential is fully developed, a ritual will be performed to fully activate the Frog God’s pollution, granting muscle fibers ‘merging’ ability, at which point Frog-Type pollution is born. Prior preparations and training are all buildup. And when all body muscles complete development and undergo the 1st round of merging proliferation, it steps into the Seed tier, condensing a Muscle Factor Seed in the body.”
Yuan Zhu: “What’s a Muscle Factor Seed? Can Extreme Warriors continuously grow and break through to condense more Muscle Factor Seeds, then transplant them into other ordinary warriors to instantly gain Progenitor’s growth potential and cultivation experience?”
He now seriously suspected whether the Frog God System was maliciously imitating the neighboring cesspit universe’s Astates?
Nie Yin shook her head: “A single Extreme Warrior has only one Muscle Factor Seed in their lifetime, also called Frog-Type Pollution Catalog.”
After the explanation, Yuan Zhu realized he had overthought and misunderstood.
This Frog-Type pollution, compared to other known pollution systems, was a very friendly type.
From the perspective of Earth’s hometown, America’s evil ‘steroid. Kowloon Tech fitness’.
Power Path’s Tier 0 newbie needs to input ordinary Body Tempering Fluid (trace pollution) to stimulate muscles, completing pollution erosion. Then muscles super-develop, ultimately under Frog God Ritual, gaining supernatural muscle fiber merging ability.
When the fully tiered (Seed) Extreme Warrior wants to continue growing, it must once again tap the already powerful ‘synthetic muscles’ potential, performing muscle fiber 2-synthesis.
At this point, ordinary ‘Body Tempering Fluid’ no longer works; stronger Magic Potion (steroid) stimulation is needed to break new limits in the already maxed state!
Just like Saiyans breaking through to Super Saiyan, already one in ten thousand and extremely difficult. Now Super Saiyan to Super 2 is barely doable. But further to Super 3, Ultra Instinct, Ultra Blue… thresholds increase exponentially.
In the normal timeline, ‘Wolf King Yuan Zhu’ would become a new Dragon Medicine matrix, secreting and providing stronger Dragon Medicine to help masses of ‘Extreme Warriors’ break higher ‘muscle limits’.
Earth’s Kowloon Tech warriors emphasize even dosing, 1 part effort 9 parts injecting, eat without training, muscles surge. Kowloon protection, instant sainthood.
While on Du Ling Star, with pollution rampant and magic potion systems unprecedentedly developed, Extreme Warriors of different schools use different levels of ‘magic potions’ during cultivation to stimulate themselves, birthing corresponding quality ‘Frog-Type pollution’, also called Muscle Factor.
Muscle Factor Seed is like Holy Seal, can collect and fuse various ‘magic potions’, continuously producing corresponding ‘Frog-Type pollution’. Used to temper and refine muscles, break limits, become bigger and stronger.
Rather, the ‘muscles’ themselves after rounds of synthesis are powerful, indestructible, full of power, but fixed assets.
Once reinforced to 2, 2-after synthesis complete, the Muscle remains in that state permanently, daily only needing maintenance and nutrient supplements. Only when damaged does the Muscle Factor Seed secrete new ‘Frog-Type pollution’ for repair and synthesis.
If Holy Light System requires constantly burning soul to create ‘Holy Light pollution’ for expenditure, self-overdraw extremely fast; then Power Path is opposite, only during cultivation getting stronger (muscle synthesis) does the Muscle Factor Seed massively secrete advanced pollution to temper the physical body.
After physical body (muscle) reinforcement is complete, the Muscle Factor Seed enters dormancy, only handling daily maintenance (secreting small amounts of muscle factor to nourish muscles). Own pollution degree greatly reduces or pauses, just needs eating and energy supplements; then like using equipment, expend muscles for physical combat.
Next round of ‘Frog-Type pollution’ outbreak is when Muscle Factor Seed releases muscle factor again to repair equipment and restore durability.
…
Yuan Zhu: “So it’s in the ‘muscle development’ stage. After physical body potential is fully exchanged, completing Frog God Blessing Ritual, muscles start 2-synthesis, then it formally becomes a ‘Frog God Warrior’. Only after all muscles synthesize once does it count as Seed.”
Nie Yin: “Correct.”
Snake Snake: “Pretty similar to Holy Light. It’s now like being overexposed to Holy Light, lifespan greatly shortened, gradually adapting to ‘Holy Light pollution’, but hasn’t imprinted Holy Mark yet.”
After figuring out the orc’s current state, Yuan Zhu said to Nie Yin: “Your performance satisfies me. You’ve smoothly passed the interview. Next, I’ll reveal more company secrets to you. Hope for pleasant cooperation.”
With that, he extended his right hand first to show sincerity.
Anti-Law captured that while the other was happy and excited, she was quite resistant to physical contact, but still endured the discomfort, lightly shook hands with Yuan Zhu, then quickly withdrew like electrocuted.
Hmm, Affection Level didn’t drop.
“Next, I’ll explain the onboarding benefits. First, 10,000 monthly living expenses, yours to spend freely. Second, I’ll provide massive free resources and issue specified ‘experimental tasks, research tasks’ with quotas to complete on time. Plus, all ‘research results’ related to Shadow, Holy Light, and specified tasks must be unconditionally submitted. And based on my input costs, forcibly levied, or paid purchase, and mutual sharing.”
“In a ‘experimental result’, the more your personal unique ‘exclusive technology’ proportion, the higher your say. Conversely, if the experiment project is proposed by me, research direction pointed by me, resources provided by me, and you research unilaterally under my guidance to produce results. Sure, it’s your talent, remuneration won’t be lacking, but the final ‘technology’ isn’t yours. Not unfair, right?”
Nie Yin, head lowered: “Fine!”
This treatment was way better than her unconditional exploitation in the Frog School.
“After completing specified work, I’ll leave you enough time for personal ability improvement. Like your interested Tattoo Art, you can further perfect it, and results are yours. I can even invest in your Frog Skin Wallet, contact other enterprises (Mao Mao King Luxury Children’s Wear), to start your personal brand (children’s backpack/true cow stationery bag). If you have visions for future Supernatural Systems, I can find related ‘Supernatural Knowledge’ for you to realize your dreams.”
Backed by Space of Gods, he could find remnant info and cultivation resources for nearly all Supernatural Systems from the Exchange List. More than enough to cultivate a Frog Killer Girl.
Hearing about starting her own ‘personal brand’, Nie Yin, bullied and ostracized since childhood, was instantly moved. She was just socially anxious, autistic, highly guarded; otherwise just a worldly-inexperienced radical little girl.
Facing Yuan Zhu’s confident pie-in-the-sky rhetoric, she found it hard to resist: “Please issue the next instructions.”
“I have four more mixed-blood orcs here. Hope you can slow the modification pace, perform Power Path modification on them. But this time, not Shadow System.Extreme Warrior. I hope you combine Holy Light to self-create a Holy Light System.Extreme Warrior.”
“As I know, Frog-Type pollution’s stability is extremely high, and supports ‘secondary pollution source’ injection (enchantment). As long as the ‘secondary pollution’ borne by Extreme Warrior is suppressed below 40%, it guarantees Power Path absolute dominance. All external ‘secondary pollution sources’ can be seen as ‘nutrients’ to be refined and absorbed.”
Normal advanced ‘Extreme Warriors’ often proactively use various advanced pollutions to make effects-unknown ‘magic potions’, swallow to stimulate Muscle Factor Seed to derive different ‘Frog-Type pollutions’, to frequently stimulate increasingly stable, indestructible Muscles, produce new mutations, break strength limits.
When secondary pollution exceeds 40%, it gradually becomes other Supernatural Systems’ muscle path soldiers, protector warriors.
Thus Yuan Zhu’s request for her to develop a foundational Holy Light.Extreme Warrior wasn’t excessive.
Nie Yin: “I’ll give it my all!”
In her career, she had only modified the one orc before her eyes, but that didn’t hinder her confidence in herself.
“Also, this orc is yours now. You handle its daily feeding, rearing, recovery, and subsequent rehabilitation, fitness, cultivation… Remember to observe a lot, record data. Food costs on me.”
Hearing this request, Nie Yin instantly crashed into autism. Frog farming ok, but feeding and caring for such a big ‘live orc’ was too much for her!
Thus the half-elf visibly tensed, hands constantly tugging her bloodstained school uniform, ears trembling, stammering, not daring to refuse, yet not wanting to agree.
