After all, Syndicate had experienced quite a few professional matches.
He had even accepted the challenge in the arena.
But this time, he felt unprecedented fear.
At the airport, he'd already gone to the toilet five times.
"What are you afraid of?" Gaia glanced at Syndicate casually. "I'm really worried that you'll pee your pants on the plane. If that's the case, you better not say you know me."
"I just drank too much water. I'll go to the toilet." Syndicate smiled, but his smile seemed forced.
Syndicate hurried to the toilet. Just then, someone came out. Syndicate knocked the person to the ground.
"Sorry." Helplessly, Syndicate pulled the person up.
"It's okay."
Syndicate didn't mind, but the person looked back at Syndicate.
"Manager, it's done."
"Good. Send it over."
It didn't take long for Muotto and Kevin to obtain Syndicate's skin tissue.
Syndicate didn't realize it at all. After all, he didn't need to pierce the skin to collect the tissue. He only needed to rub a rough object against the skin.
On the plane, Syndicate didn't kill time by watching movies. Instead, he watched boxing videos.
Of course, most of them were Tiger's matches.
From these videos, it was obvious that Tiger's strength had a step-by-step growth process.
Syndicate could even see that Tiger didn't go easy in any of the matches.
He'd won every match with ease.
Even the match he'd fixed with Syndicate.
He clearly had absolute strength, but his agent still superfluously asked him to fix the match.
Of course, even if Syndicate really fought with him, he probably couldn't beat him.
But now, Syndicate understood.
Their starting points were different.
After receiving Chen Zhao's potential stimulation and Gaia's training.
Syndicate also deeply experienced the process of a person evolving into a superman.
As long as he didn't compare himself to Gaia, Syndicate felt that he was a superman.
Tiger must've walked the same path as him back then.
In the entire boxing world, there was no boxer who could fight against Tiger.
He wasn't in the same dimension as the other boxers.
However, in the near future, he would challenge Tiger.
At the same time, he would challenge his position.
And he was the only one who had a chance to challenge Tiger.
Because he'd had the same experience as Tiger.
…
"Muato, I've discovered something."
"What is it?"
"I took a skin sample from Tiger's opponent and found the same result as Tiger."
"What?"
"It's not just the same. Based on the cell sample alone, his cells have a more obvious reaction to the drug than Tiger's. The effect is also better."
"Do all boxers have this effect?"
"No. After I got the preliminary results, I asked someone to find skin samples from a dozen boxers in L.A., but their results were the same as normal people. Only Tiger and his opponent had this strange phenomenon."
"In other words, this kind of experimental result is not a natural result, and there is some kind of connection between them, right?"
"That should be it."
"Then bring both of them here. We should be able to get some clues from their mouths."
"In that case, should we still use the Devil's Potion on this Syndicate?"
"Let him use it. If one side uses it and the other doesn't, then the match will be too boring. Let me see how these two boxers, who are perfectly compatible with the Devil's Potion, perform in the ring."
…
There was still one day before the match. Syndicate had already started his adaptation training.
These two days, Gaia's punches were especially "gentle."
At least, she wouldn't knock him out for no reason.
"This hotel's food sucks." Syndicate swallowed his food with difficulty, but he still tried his best to finish it.
"Really? I think it's pretty good," Gaia said calmly.
"I'm going back to my room."
Syndicate didn't like hotel food. He only felt 60% full.
But he couldn't eat outside.
Because in the hotel, he could ask the hotel to order food.
But if he ate outside, he might violate the international rules of using contraband food.
When Syndicate returned to his room, he realized that his clothes were sticky.
He took off his clothes and realized that his clothes and body were all sticky with a black substance.
"What's going on?"
After rinsing, the black substance seeped out of his skin again.
This repeated a few times. After two hours, the black substance finally stopped seeping out.
Worried, Syndicate called Gaia.
"Ms. Gaia, I don't know if there's something wrong with my body. My skin keeps seeping out black substance."
Hearing that, Gaia immediately went to Syndicate's room.
"What kind of black substance?"
"Oh, it's the black substance on your clothes."
Seeing the black substance, Gaia suddenly remembered that she'd also gone through this stage.
That time, she'd taken the medicine Chen Zhao had provided and the same thing happened that night.
Later, Chen Zhao had said that the black substance was the poison in her body.
In his words, it was cleansing her meridians.
This wasn't a bad thing.
On the contrary, expelling the poison in her body was very good for her body.
"This is a good thing. It expelled the poison and impurities in your body," Gaia said. "Your body has probably improved again."
"Is that so?"
"Haven't you realized that your senses have all improved?"
"I think so. I can even hear the sounds in the room downstairs."
"Eavesdropping isn't a good habit. Also, if you don't control the spread of your hearing, it'll be a huge obstacle to your life. So, you need to learn to control your ability."
"Ms. Gaia, can you do it too?"
"What you're experiencing now, I've experienced it before, and my reaction is even stronger than yours. In the beginning, I could hear all the sounds in the entire building, while you could only hear the sounds from the nearby floors. However, this sudden improvement is also beneficial for you in the competition. In the ring, even if you have your back to your opponent, you can still sense the angle and direction of the opponent's attack."
"Then I can compete with my eyes closed?"
"In principle, yes, but you'd better be responsible for our bets. Whether it's me or your boss, we don't want our investments to go down the drain."
