Chapter 106: Chapter 80 Gene Seed (Second Update)

"Director, the download is complete. When do we enter the game?"

"I’ve also downloaded it successfully."

"Download success +1"

...

Half an hour later, Yu Ze led the research team of the Genetic Transformation Department to log into the game.

Despite being mentally prepared, the flawless reality of the scene upon entering the game still left Yu Ze and the researchers in awe.

However, they did not immediately explore outward but chose to communicate with Guidance to understand the basic background and gameplay mode of the world.

After a long time, having grasped the general situation, Yu Ze decided to kick off the gene modification experimentation plan.

But before that, they first needed to resolve the issue of the game’s currency.

Without sacrificial power, one cannot make any progress.

As for purchasing sacrificial power with cash, this method did not seem feasible.

Old Yang from the Weapon Development Department remarked that the production of sacrificial power in this game was very scarce, but there were many gameplay modes that required its consumption, and the number of pay-to-play players was far greater than that of Working Team players.

This led to considerable difficulty in purchasing sacrificial power.

The sacrificial power produced by many professional Working Teams was basically reserved in advance by the large guilds and wasn’t for sale to the public.

Facing this issue, Yu Ze chose to seek help from an old friend.

Summoning the function panel, he added Old Yang’s game name "Big Killer" as a friend.

Soon after, a prompt for the friend request approval rang out.

Genetic Front: Old Yang, lend me some sacrificial power, I can’t do anything without money.

Having previously learned about his old friend leading the Genetics Department into the game, Yang Tianxuan felt somewhat helpless:

Big Killer: We’re also short on sacrificial power, where would I have extra to give you (Explorer confused.jpg)

Genetic Front: Cut the chatter, support me with some, I’ll pay you back once I have sacrificial power.

Big Killer: No money.

Genetic Front: You’ll definitely need the gene enhancement potions we develop later on. You need to improve your Body Refining Level too, right?

Big Killer: So?

Genetic Front: I’ll sell you the gene enhancement potions at cost price in the future. Quit the chatter, give me 5000 sacrificial power points for now.

Big Killer: I agree to buy gene enhancement potions at cost price from you, but dreaming of getting 5000 sacrificial power points—where do you think I’d have that much.

Genetic Front: How much do you have left?

Big Killer: Just 4200 points, Xiao Ye has over 16,000, that’s all we’ve got, the rest of the sacrificial power was spent on materials.

Genetic Front: Give me all of your sacrificial power, hurry up.

Big Killer: Fine, I’ll transfer it to you, remember to pay me back.

...

After disconnecting the call, a prompt sounded in Yu Ze’s mind.

[Challenger Tips: Received a transfer of sacrificial power from player "Big Killer": 4000 points.]

Having acquired some sacrificial power, Yu Ze decisively summoned the Star Vein enhancement interface.

After spending 500 sacrificial power points to open up the Second Star Vein, he then purchased an Extraction Life Soul worth 1000 sacrificial power points and embedded it in the second life soul slot.

Next, he went to the exchange and began to buy Spirit Plants in bulk.

Vajra Vine, Moonlight Grass, Blood Light Lotus, Illusion Light Leaf... After completing his purchases, Yu Ze was left with only 823 points of sacrificial power.

Under the expectant eyes of his subordinates, Yu Ze took out a Moonlight Flower from his Space Bag, then switched to Extraction form, transforming into a half-meter tall, verdant plant.

The Extraction Characteristic ability was unleashed, and the Moonlight Grass wrapped in Yu Ze’s tendrils visibly yellowed, withered, and its plant essence bubbled up as it was continuously extracted, gathering into an expanding bubble above.

Eventually, the Moonlight Grass was thoroughly drained, leaving behind only a pile of black powder.

In Yu Ze’s hands, a glowing green ball of extracted essence appeared.

Focus upon the information, the analysis surfaced:

[Moonlight Grass Essence]

Spirit Plant Level: 2

Item Description: Essence energy refined and extracted from Level 2 Spirit Plant Moonlight Grass, can be used for consumption, potion crafting, and other functions.

...

Switching back to human form, Yu Ze held the ball of Moonlight Flower essence to his nose for a light sniff.

Instantly, a strong medicinal fragrance filled his nostrils.

The effect of the extraction characteristic left Yu Ze amazed.

The steps to extract Spirit Plant essence in their laboratory were laborious, and it took a total of 10 steps before a Spirit Plant could be purified and refined into essence.

Furthermore, the method of extraction and purification differed for every Spirit Plant.

But in this game, these steps were drastically simplified, reduced to just one step.

Although this technology could not be brought back to reality, with the help of the Extraction Characteristic, the efficiency of subsequent gene modification experiments could be greatly improved.

Now that the extraction of plant essence was complete, it was time to attempt the production of gene seeds.

A gene seed is a special organ cultivated from the active energy particles within Spirit Plants.

After being ingested into the human body, it absorbs the energy of flesh and blood, rapidly growing, releasing energy inside the subject’s body, and affecting, regulating, and controlling the body’s metabolic functions. During this process, the body might reject the integration of the gene seed, which in severe cases could lead to genetic collapse and death of the subject.

If successful, the gene seed would be completely integrated into the subject’s body, becoming the driving force for body enhancement.

This technology has developed over the past hundred-plus years, but the high mortality rate associated with it has never been solved.

However, in Monster World, Yu Ze didn’t need to worry about this problem.

After buying an Intermediate Spiritual Repair Potion for 100 sacrificial power points, he activated the Perception View of the Eagle-Headed Demon.

Suddenly, the microscopic structure of the Moonlight Flower essence enlarged and appeared before his eyes, and with an outward focus of consciousness, it was like a scalpel.

By altering the structure of the plant essence, it was reconfigured into a special structure suited for the human body.

This was akin to programming the plant essence to release energy, delicately imprinted by consciousness to release Spiritual Particles that attach to flesh, bones, and meridians, thereby incrementally remodeling the body.
