Chapter 385: Chapter 307 It’s Just Too Normal_3

What’s more important is that Zheng Yichen’s blood has a very high receptivity to that hallucinogen!

This is also a major reason why those hallucinogens could be completely preserved. During the experiments, when other experimental organisms were exposed to this hallucinogen, it would be immediately absorbed.

The hallucinogen has a very strong affinity, which means it can take effect quickly and maintain its presence for a long time. Other organisms are unlikely to have the same situation as Zheng Yichen, where a large amount of the hallucinogen can be completely retained in the blood without being fully absorbed.

With such an affinity of the hallucinogen, even if there’s more of it, it would be completely absorbed, which then leads to permanent ’deterioration’ of the organism. This kind of deterioration is not deformation; it’s a pathological condition, akin to an individual having consumed a large amount of radioactive material, which, after death, would need to be placed in a sealed container to avoid radiation affecting others.

However, the effect of this deterioration on the individual organism is akin to seasoning for the creatures that spread the hallucinogen...

Therefore, the fact that Zheng Yichen’s blood isn’t absorbing the hallucinogen but accommodating it, is very special. She did a careful check and found that Zheng Yichen’s blood doesn’t generate the same hallucinogen, but it has extra adaptability to it.

It is this adaptability that prevented his blood from completely absorbing the hallucinogen, and instead retained it. Such adaptability has turned his blood... no, his entire body into functioning like a ’poison sac’.

"Does this mean my body didn’t eliminate the effects of the hallucinogen, but instead adapted and stored it better?" Zheng Yichen was somewhat amazed. Tia hadn’t told him about this situation, but if the change was harmless to him, it seemed she wouldn’t bother to mention these ’meaningless’ details.

As for additional checks, he thought about it and realized he hadn’t checked his blood after the hallucinations had subsided. Instead, he found a place to rest well, and after the hallucinations had completely vanished, he assumed his body had returned to normal.

"Right, there’s that possibility, but it needs more testing. Let me draw some blood," Ahn Ke said, her eyes shining as she looked at Zheng Yichen.

Zheng Yichen’s body must have undergone some adaptation to the hallucinogen, as the blood that was drawn days ago must be different from his current blood. A comparison would be able to distinguish the differences.

"If blood doesn’t work, saliva is fine too, I don’t mind sweat, or maybe make a trip to the restroom?"

"You sure devalue quickly!" A twitch surfaced on Zheng Yichen’s mouth, but still, he drew some blood for Ahn Ke.

Ahn Ke said, "Because you are special... Just wait a moment."

She took Zheng Yichen’s blood to a machine and used it, making sure to take full protective measures. The previous blood samples, merely upon contact with air, could induce hallucinations, and the blood Zheng Yichen provided couldn’t discount such a possibility.

While she was busy, Zheng Yichen was thinking about this situation... It didn’t seem like something unexpected. He wasn’t unaware that his extraordinary abilities could grant him new traits, and while the traits acquired might not be complete, they definitely benefitted him in some way.

Iron Lungs, a stomach with Feeding Enhancement, a strengthened heart, and so on. Once he acquired various new traits related to internal organs in the future, his physique would be as sturdy as iron.

Having drawn so much blood from a sandworm, acquiring a new trait was only too normal for him. It was just so like him.

But as to whether this new trait allowed his body to generate hallucinogens or was something else, he was unsure. At least for now, he didn’t feel any strange changes in his body, indicating that this new trait wasn’t about directly enhancing strength. Judging from Ahn Ke’s research report, it’s more about enhancing some kind of resistance.

"Indeed, there are hallucinogens remaining in your blood, only one-tenth compared to the previous blood, and this part of the hallucinogen is being slowly broken down by your blood," Ahn Ke said, looking at the information from the tests.

"Not absorbed?"

"Decomposed," Ahn Ke emphasized. Zheng Yichen’s blood wasn’t completely immune to the hallucinogen, but once its concentration was below a certain level, it no longer affected him and was only slowly broken down by his body...

Ahn Ke then dived back into the subsequent experiments, performing many tests that could be done in real-time. By the time she finished with the experiments at hand, it was already late at night, and she still seemed somewhat reluctant to stop.

"Your blood has a strong adaptability to hallucinogens. If ineffective hallucinogens enter your body, they get decomposed..." Ahn Ke remarked, sharing some of the results of the recent tests: "However, this adaptability is ’storage and decomposition,’ with the risk of overaccumulation. But as long as it doesn’t overaccumulate, you’re completely immune to the hallucinogenic substances."

She marveled as she spoke: adapting to external influences usually requires some time, but Zheng Yichen’s adaptability was much more potent than conventional. As long as it’s within the threshold, it’s immunity. She couldn’t guarantee this special adaptability could counter all hallucinogens, but it certainly covered a vast majority of them.

"After processing fresh blood and using it as an additive in the synthesis of a new hallucinogen, the effect increased by half. Your blood and body might not actively produce hallucinogens, but they catalyze the synthesis of certain hallucinogens quite effectively..."

"Also, before the stored hallucinogens in your body are completely broken down, it is likely that all of your body fluids have hallucinogenic effects."

Listening to Ahn Ke’s lengthy explanation, Zheng Yichen paused for a while: "All of them?"

"Probably all of them," Ahn Ke nodded: "And these hallucinogens can be absorbed through skin contact."

"..." How the hell was he supposed to have better interactions with girls now?
