Chen Ang spent a few minutes flipping through the research report in his hands.
"This is truly a miracle in the history of human evolution. The further development of the brain will allow us to become a different kind of existence!" Chen Ang looked at the purple drug in front of him and exclaimed sincerely.
"Unlike 'Eddie', 'Lucy's' development of the brain is permanent, but it also causes fatal side effects. However, the second catalyst that you brought back can have a decisive effect on 'Lucy'. From this, we extracted a weakened version of 'Lucy', reducing the side effects to a level that the human body can bear! This is a gift from God! " The old man rambled on to express his excitement.
The second catalyst was Lucy's stem cells that Chen Ang brought back. 'Eddie' referred to the NZT drug, and 'Lucy' referred to the CPH4 virus. Only Chen Ang knew the meaning of these code names.
"How's the effect?" Chen Ang had to interrupt the excited old man.
The old professor took a deep breath and immersed himself into a deeper level of overclocking. Only then did his eyes regain their calmness. "The effect is amazing! Professor! The test subject is maintained in the overclocking state, and can even easily enter the overclocking state. As long as he concentrates, he can automatically enter the overclocking state without any assistance. According to our examination, his brain development has already exceeded 20%. This part is permanently activated! "
Permanently, automatically entered!
This was much more powerful than the enhanced version of 'Eddie'. If the overclocking state brought about by the NZT drug was considered a supplementary drug, then the permanent overclocking state was close to a 'special ability'. It was even the most nature-defying of the 'special abilities'. With the brain overclocked by 20%, Chen Ang could easily hear sounds from afar. He could judge the distance based on the sound, predict the other party's actions, and automatically absorb a large amount of knowledge. He was not afraid of pain or fear, and his judgment was extremely strong.
He could easily perform the strength and movements that exceeded the limits of human muscles. His vision could capture the speed of bullets, and he could sense infrared and ultraviolet light, and even electromagnetic waves. He would be the strongest hacker, fighter, marksman, and scientist. However, the price he had to pay was a gradually collapsing body and increasingly weak emotions.
After taking NZT for a long period of time, Chen Ang's mental state had become a little too cold. He could not accept that he was gradually losing himself.
"Great power must be borne by a great heart. A superman's body must contain a superman's soul. China's ancient cultivation classics recorded that cultivating one's nature without cultivating one's fate was the number one disease of cultivation since ancient times. If one only cultivated one's fate without cultivating one's nature, it would be difficult for a Yin spirit to attain sainthood. I need to find a way to strengthen my soul and body at the same time in order to continue. "
Chen Ang made up his mind. "I must enter other worlds as soon as possible to find a way to balance the spirit and body and develop in a balanced way. From the Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor, my problem is a typical imbalance of essence, qi, and spirit. In this case, the inner force of the martial arts world may be of great help to me."
"Has the drug been perfected?" Chen Ang asked the old professor.
The old professor raised his head and gestured at the needle on his neck. "It's perfect. I've never felt so good before! Normal overclocking doesn't cause any stress to the body, but overclocking once is still a little strenuous. It's best not to use it for more than five minutes. You should rest for ten minutes in between using it continuously. That way, there won't be any side effects. "
Chen Ang looked at his emotionless eyes and smiled bitterly. "Isn't that a side effect?"
"Of course not. This is a manifestation of the drug's perfection!" The old professor pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and said solemnly, "A state of absolute rationality, eliminating the influence of emotions. This is the perfect human being! Of course, I can't reach that state yet. I'm just a little more clear-headed now. I'll still be affected by those annoying emotions. "
"Thank God! Fortunately, this is only a special reaction of yours and not a side effect. Give me an injection of the drug to strengthen me! "Chen Ang walked to the lab table and lay down. A soft band stretched out from the side and gently wrapped around him.
Pain shot through his arms and body at the same time. Chen Ang watched as the violet liquid entered his body drop by drop. The conversation of the researchers around him was dragged out. The voices and images flashed before his eyes. Soon, a familiar feeling filled his brain.
Soon, the feeling calmed down. Chen Ang gently shook his arm, and his muscles wriggled layer by layer. He easily broke free from the rope that could tie up an elephant. His skin constantly wrinkled and wriggled, collecting sweat and dust, and cleaning his surface.
Soon, some dirt seeped out of the pores on Chen Ang's skin. He shook it gently, and it scattered and fell off. His skin was as smooth as a newborn baby's. Some parasitic mites and acne had disappeared without a trace.
The old professor looked at this scene in shock. The experiment notebook in his hand fell to the ground. "What's going on? Did the drug strengthening fail? " He nervously went forward to check. This was the moment when his dream came true. If anything happened to his big sponsor, an important partner in the research, it would be a nightmare.
"It's fine!" Chen Ang waved at him. "The strengthening is a success!"
"But the strengthening time is not up yet. The drug needs at least three hours to take effect. You just injected it! Moreover, there have never been any experimental records of controlling microterminal muscles and nerve endings. This can only be achieved if the brain is at least 30% developed. "The old professor waved his hands and feet. Even the overclocking state could not control his emotions.
Suddenly, two streams of blood flowed out of Chen Ang's nose. He held his head and groaned. The frightened laboratory doctor rushed over to check on him. "There's no need. I can feel any state of my body. Just now, I overclocked my brain at full power. My body can't bear it."
"This is at least 25% overclocked, but the drug can only be overclocked once. It's only 20%!" The old professor was puzzled.
"My brain is more developed than others. It's only 20%!" Chen Ang said in a muffled voice as he covered his nose.
"It's best for you to maintain your full power at 10%. This is the best state your body can withstand in the long run. 15% of normal overclocking is the limit. 20% of overclocking once can only be used to a limited extent," the old professor advised.
Under Chen Ang's control, his nasal cavity quickly returned to normal. He raised his head and said confidently, "Even if I'm only in my full power state, I'm still more powerful than you in your overclocking state!" Chen Ang raised his hand and twisted it nimbly a few times. He felt the muscles and endocrine in his body being adjusted to the best.
"Of course, you're the most amazing genius I've ever seen. Chen, you're the person I admire the most! " The old professor looked at him sincerely and sighed. "The development of the brain, the secret of God's Forbidden Zone, will be the greatest discovery in human history. Only the sum of all the scientists in human history can match up to your contribution, Chen."
"The reason why I can see further than others is because I'm standing on the shoulders of giants!" Chen Ang raised his head and looked at the old professor seriously.
"Come up with a name for it!" The old professor pointed at the violet liquid. "You're its creator, its father. You have this honor!"
"Let's call it the Foundation Establishment Pill!" Chen Ang smiled wickedly. "If we develop other drugs in the future, we'll call it the Core Formation Fruit and the Nascent Soul Formation Pill. We'll make it into a series."
"Perfect Basic Casting Medicine! It's a very suitable name. " The old professor could not understand the Chinese joke. He nodded in agreement. "However, the series of drugs you're hoping for might not be realized. Overclocking 20% is already the limit of humans. It squandered the results of humans' evolution for tens of millions of years. If we go any higher, we'll have to wait until the next evolution of humans is complete. Only a few geniuses will be able to withstand it."
"Without a doubt, I'm that kind of genius!" Chen Ang boasted with a smile.
"I'm looking forward to it!" The old professor nodded with a smile.
A month later, in the training ground of the underground base, Chen Ang fired shot after shot at a target 500 meters away. He held a special pistol in his hand and emptied one magazine after another.
Soon, several targets moved quickly. A small elevator imitated the trajectory of a flying bird and glided in the air. Chen Ang's shooting speed was almost without hesitation. Often, his eyes didn't even move as he fired in the direction of the target. His left hand quickly changed the magazine, and the gunshots were steady and continuous.
After a box of ammunition was emptied, someone quickly ran to the target. Not long after, a voice rang out. "All 10 rings!"
A burly man in camouflage went to check it personally. He ran over and praised, "With just your shooting skills, you can deal with five fully armed special forces soldiers!"
Chen Ang changed into a small silver-white box and tied it to his arm with a thin belt. He waved his arm to test the feel of it and replied, "But no special forces soldier would only send an action team. With the support of logistics, intelligence, and tactics, they would be able to turn a sharpshooter into a sieve when they work together."
"But you don't just have shooting skills. You don't only have your own shadow behind you! The power of the consortium will make you have nothing to worry about! "The burly man said meaningfully.
With Chen Ang's current ability, he could only face a special forces squadron head-on. If he encountered a few more people, he would have to risk entering overclocking or use his special ability to escape. Even some tactical teams would be enough to cause him enough trouble.
Of course, the premise was that Chen Ang didn't have enough resources and support. Otherwise, as a mad scientist by profession, his destructive power would increase geometrically according to the amount of resources and information he had. A massive army of tactical robots, tactical nuclear weapons, genetic weapons, and biochemical weapons would be enough to give a superpower a headache.
Carrying a few darts, Chen Ang stood in the examination room. Soon, a red dot the size of a coin flashed in a corner not far away. Chen Ang kicked the wall, and his body quickly flashed a few infrared rays. A dart shot out like lightning and nailed itself on the red dot.
Two more red dots moved quickly behind him. Chen Ang didn't even turn his head, and the two darts were nailed there. The red dots appeared faster and faster, but Chen Ang raised his hands and waved his hands to scatter a few silver lights, and none of the red lights escaped.
In the next moment, dozens of red dots flickered in different places. Some were close, some were far, and some were in blind spots and bunkers. However, Chen Ang's body turned nimbly, and the silver box on his arm opened silently. As he spun, fireworks were scattered. Fireworks were everywhere, and there were tens of thousands of cold stars.
The burly man's face showed obvious surprise. He rubbed his chin and muttered, "This lethality is already not inferior to a small-caliber automatic rifle. In the hands of an expert, the power of a cold weapon is not inferior to a gunpowder weapon!"
But soon, he came back to his senses and sighed. "But it's not as good as a gun. Instead of practicing these, you might as well have two custom-made guns!"
"But some places are not suitable for using guns. It will scare the people there. On the contrary, these are much easier to use!" Chen Ang picked up a small crossbow from the small box and gestured. "This crossbow has a longer range than a normal rifle. Its power is also far greater than a rifle. Most importantly, it is not eye-catching at all."
The burly man looked curiously at the strange things in the box and reached out to touch it.
"Don't move! There is a drop of poison inside that can poison a small town to death. There is also a machine cylinder that can explode thirty thousand silver needles in an instant. Most importantly, the poison is smeared on the silver needles! "Chen Ang warned him.
"F * ck!" The burly man nervously retracted his hand. "Are you trying to assassinate the president? No, if you want it, just tell me. Why use this kind of thing? Damn, how did you make this kind of thing! "
"I call it the Heart Piercing Bone Nail!" Chen Ang put away the box and sternly said. "My research lab is omnipotent!"
