Chapter 311: Chapter 310 Human Body Refinement

Zhang Yanhang felt even more convinced that the standard police equipment sets from Raccoon City were indeed formidable, especially the Green quality versions. Just a single belt from the set had provided him with the kind of Attribute bonus typically only available from a Dark Purple Quality set.

"Green, Blue, Purple, Dark Purple—that’s a difference of three Quality levels! No wonder the group admin agreed immediately when I proposed to trade this Green set for the Dilophosaurus Potion; turns out, I was exchanging equipment that has the same Attribute bonus as a full Score Dark Purple set for a Purple Quality Artifact.

So, did I lose out?"

Zhang Yanhang felt he probably hadn’t lost out. Although the Green Ten-piece Set could match a Dark Purple set in terms of Attribute bonuses, its inherent Quality cap was indeed a significant drawback.

Because it was only Green Quality, the Green set could, at most, be used within the Second Tier. Once promoted to the Third Tier, its original bonus effects would be completely lost.

Thus, even if the equipment’s Attribute bonus effect was quite good, its value would be accordingly deducted for being something that only a Second Tier Awakener could use.

And proper Dark Purple Quality Equipment was different. Corresponding to the Rank of a Third Tier Awakener, even after advancing to the Fourth Tier, one could still enjoy the bonus effects, so overall, there was indeed a fairly noticeable difference in value between the two.

"Looking at it this way, even though there might have been a bit of an overcharge, overall, I shouldn’t have lost out, after all, the Dilophosaurus Potion is indeed very important to me."

The group admin wasn’t running a charity, so Zhang Yanhang thought that this level of overcharge was actually quite normal.

After all, resources are worthless if they can’t be spent, but they gain real value when they can be used to exchange for various Artifacts and Items that can enhance Zhang Yanhang’s power.

After briefly checking the Attribute list for Makarov’s Regret, Zhang Yanhang couldn’t help but ponder a serious question: He hadn’t gotten his ears pierced in advance, so how could he normally wear the earring?

Because if he just pierced it through directly, resulting in a bloody hole, the automatic recovery of his Life Value would probably cause the wound to gradually heal and reject the earring as a foreign object obstructing the healing process.

"This has become a bit troublesome, and, moreover, whether I can even pierce through my bodily defense simply by piercing it directly is another important question."

What Zhang Yanhang referred to as normal was piercing through his earlobe with an ordinary amount of force. Given it was his own body, he feared using too much strength might lead to unintentionally tearing the earlobe, and while it would heal with medicine, just imagining it was painful.

"At times like this, it seems that the almighty Alchemy will have to come to the rescue. As long as I use Alchemy to modify the tissue structure of my earlobe and create a natural hole, then I can normally wear the earring."

In most cases, for issues that Zhang Yanhang couldn’t resolve, he just needed to attempt using Multiple Choice and Alchemy—two capabilities akin to universal wishing machines—and they would usually be nicely resolved.

"I had planned to first try Human Body Refinement on other Awakeners before doing it on myself, but plans never keep up with changes, now it seems like I have to do it on the fly."

Although Zhang Yanhang had absolutely no experience with Human Body Refinement, fortunately, the part he was refining this time was just his earlobe, arguably the least important organ in the human body.

Its sole purpose was to make human appearances look more symmetrical and harmonious; beyond that, it served no function.

So even if the earlobe was directly cut off, it would not harm the human body itself, nor would it cause significant bleeding since blood circulation hardly passed through that area.

To some extent, an earlobe’s value was even less than that of an appendix, but thankfully, although the earlobe didn’t play a big role in maintaining bodily functions, it was far more trouble-free than an appendix, which was prone to problems.

That being said, if Zhang Yanhang had to experiment with Human Body Refining Technology on his heart or brain, he would be completely unwilling, fearing that he would fatally harm himself. But experimenting on the earlobe was different; if it went wrong, he could simply cut it off and grow a new one.

If the heart and brain could regenerate immediately after damage just like the earlobe, Zhang Yanhang would gladly experiment with Human Body Refinement on his own body. But unfortunately, although he was an Awakener, he hadn’t awakened any ability like an Undying Body, and without a brain, he would still die.

Of course, if the issue was just the heart, Zhang Yanhang believed that with the strong Constitution of an Awakener, he might be able to hang on, assuming medication was taken in time.

Moreover, at this time, Zhang Yanhang believed that his Data Avatar should at least be of some use, certainly not letting him collapse immediately after losing his heart.

Although it was only the earlobe, the thought of experimenting with Human Body Refining Technology on himself made Zhang Yanhang somewhat nervous. After calming his emotions slightly, he began using Alchemy on his earlobe.

Different from the usual Alchemy Arrays with diameters of one or two meters, this time, due to the limited scope of the effect, Zhang Yanhang created only a tiny Alchemy Array the size of a fingertip on the earlobe.

With the infusion of Energy Value, the tiny Alchemy Array quickly began to operate officially. He only needed to create a tiny hole of less than one millimeter in diameter this time, which from the perspective of Human Body Refinement, ought to be quite simple.

Normally, Human Body Refinement is used to increase the quantity and quality of muscle tissue, thereby quickly enhancing the user’s strength.

Under the effect of the tiny Alchemy Array, the inner connection of the flesh and blood tissues in the center of the earlobe vanished rapidly. The inside part of the tissue actively rejected material, creating a hole about a few tenths of a millimeter in diameter in the center. Zhang Yanhang casually compared it with the earring and found that the diameter was just right.
