Chapter 279: 279: Gene Modification Liquid

“Is it because of the psychic damage?” Song Jian theorized. “But the Eye Killing technique also inflicts psychic damage, and I haven’t seen any monster react like this.”

“Could it be that the Spiritual Sword Control Technique specifically targets a monster’s consciousness and mental strength?” Song Jian suddenly thought about how he had used the Spiritual Sword Control Technique before, and the pain of the backlash was so severe he felt as if his head would explode. It was worse than death!

“From the way this monster is reacting, could it be experiencing the same thing I went through?” Song Jian speculated.

Indeed, the Spiritual Sword Control Technique mainly damages the spirit, and its power is ten times greater than the backlash Song Jian experienced. The feeling is like having one’s entire head cracked open, something no creature could endure.

After thinking about it for a while, Song Jian still couldn’t figure it out. He put it aside and focused on the loot dropped by the mutated warrior.

It was a syringe emitting a white glow.

Gene Modification Liquid (Damaged): Increases your strength attribute by 2 points permanently and hastens vitality recovery rate by 50%. Usage requirements: 10 points of body physique. Item description: This item was a biological weapon researched by Zeus Shield Company. Gives ordinary people great power in a short time. Those with less than 10 points in body physique can also use it, but there is a high chance of causing a genetic collapse; WARNING: It is an early-stage product, and it creates a severe mental flaw in the user, reducing psychic attack resistance by 50.”

After reading the item’s attribute description, Song Jian understood why all these zombies who had been injected with the Gene Modification Liquid had these mental weaknesses. This reduction in mental attack resistance was probably so extreme that their psychic resistance had become negative! This explains the strong reaction to the Spiritual Sword Control Technique.

Although the item boosts 2 points of strength and permanently increases vitality recovery rate by 50%, the side effects are severe, so Song Jian just hesitated for a moment before storing it in his bag.

After pinpointing a weakness in these Level 20 gene-modified zombies, the battles became much easier. More importantly, Song Jian was now killing monsters seven levels above him, which gave him a bonus in experience gain that other players would envy.

System: Congratulations, you’ve successfully defeated a Level 20 ordinary monster seven levels higher than you, gaining a 700% experience boost. You’ve earned 5,800 experience points!

Song Jian1 s experience bar filled up substantially, making the next level up seem much closer.

The Spiritual Sword Control Technique had a cooldown time of thirty seconds. It shouldn’t take more than a minute to kill a gene-modified zombie, making it easy to clear as long as he didn’t get swarmed by multiple ones at once.

Half an hour later, Song Jian found dealing with these Level 20 monsters even easier than tackling the Level 15 ones he had faced previously.

After he finished off all the gene-modified monsters on the first floor of the building, he leveled up to Lv 14 with an additional 14% progress. More surprisingly, his expertise in the Spiritual Sword Control Technique had also increased by 28%.

Seeing that he had gained a skill point, Song Jian checked the skill panel. The Earth Teeth Assault skill was at Level 1 with 87% mastery, Kick was at Level 1 with 65% mastery, Sword Finger Level 2 with 77% mastery, Broken Wing Dance Level 2 with 91% mastery, Sword Silk Level 2 with 67% mastery, Rapid Sword Level 2 with 34% mastery, Immortal Sword Body Level 1 with 18% mastery. None of his active skills had reached full mastery to advance to the next level. His character skill “Thick Face” had already reached Level 10 and couldn’t be upgraded further, and passive skills could only be improved through practice. Most importantly, these passive skills weren’t very powerful, and wasting skill points on them would be a squander.

After some thought, Song Jian decided to hold on to his skill point and use it to upgrade the Broken Wing Dance skill once its mastery reaches 100%.

The Broken Wing Dance had a short cooldown, was powerful and had strong crowd control, making it essential in every fight. Thus he could level up its proficiency pretty fast. Song Jian reckoned he needed to kill around ten more monsters to meet the criteria for upgrading this sword technique.

At Level 14, just one more level up, he would be able to wear the Silver Quality Leather Armor in his bag, which he had been keeping for several days. Song Jian was confident that he could reach Level 15 and wear it upon finishing his current mission.

Despite killing so many gene-modified zombies, the only loot was the Gene Modification Liquid. Song Jian had six tubes of the white quality Gene Modification Liquid in his bag, not every gene-modified zombie dropped this liquid.

And these vials of liquid all increased different attributes, such as agility, defense, attack, or other attribute damage. But they all shared a massive drawback, which was to give the user a substantial mental flaw. They had barely any resistance to psychic attacks, and their psychic damage was even increased.

This side effect deterred Song Jian from using the Gene Modification Liquid. Plus, only the same type of modification liquid could be used. Higher grade modification liquid could overwrite and absorb the lower-grade ones, but an overdose of the same quality liquid could cause genetic disorder, leading to death or insanity in most cases.

Having cleared the first floor, Song Jian made his way up the stairs to the second floor.

Just as he left the first floor, two figures emerged in front of the Zeus Shield Company building in the distance.

“Captain, is this the place?” Qi Yun asked as he looked nervously at the towering building. With Level 20 monsters around, it was quite intimidating for him at Level 13. Deprived of his sniper rifle and any means of attack, he would never dare to step into an area filled with Level 20 monsters if left alone.

“Yes, it is. I had to pay a hefty price for this information!” Ma Jiang exclaimed, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the Zeus Shield Company building. Inside was a treasure trove, vast quantities of Gene Modification Liquid that would fetch a significant price if brought out. More importantly, there was also a recently developed, perfect quality Gene Modification Liquid.

This perfect quality Gene Modification Liquid was extracted from the fossil of an ancient creature that had survived for billions of years. That the fossil still had active genetic fragments was a miracle in itself. Before the apocalypse, it created a worldwide sensation, leading top biological scientists across the world to eagerly desire a membership in the Zeus Shield Company’s laboratory. When Ma Jiang first heard that the Zeus Shield branch in Doomsday City held a perfect quality Gene Modification Liquid made from genetic fragments extracted from an ancient fossil, he was skeptical. But after purchasing the information at a high price, Ma Jiang was immediately pumped. The information included an abundance of pictures and videos that provided clear evidence that this perfect quality Gene Modification Liquid had indeed been transported to the building before the apocalyptic disaster.

“It’s real. The perfect quality Gene Modification Liquid is indeed in this building!” Ma Jiang muttered to himself as he strode towards the building.
