The trip to the Somar Desert had come to an end.
The time limit for the mission was fifteen days, but Han Xiao had only spent six days to complete it.
The Fabian Corporation's transport plane landed at the Morning Wind City Airport. Han Xiao immediately rushed to Hotel Vitalia and went to the Blood Pact Society's floor to submit the mission.
The waiter quickly reported, and the person in charge personally came to receive him.
In a separate VIP room, Han Xiao leaned on the sofa and waited for the person in charge to confirm the mission details.
On a certain floor, a Dark Net recorder opened the Rose Militant's bounty page and wrote down the latest information.
"688.4.1, codename: Mr. Black (Net) [Mission Completed]
"Time: 688.4.7
"Mission canceled."
This information was sent to the database. At the same time, all the assassins in the Blood Pact Society received a message informing them that the Rose Militant's bounty had been canceled.
…
"Mr. Black, your bounty mission has been verified. We will transfer the reward to your account."
Ding! Han Xiao looked at his computer and saw that his account had increased by three million. He had more than five million in his bank account. He realized that doing bounties was really quick to earn money. It was even faster than making machines. The players who had completed the Rose Militant mission in the past seemed to be a small team of fifteen. Everyone shared the reward, but Han Xiao had completed it alone and earned a lot.
You have completed [Bounty Hunter (Rose Militant)]. You have received 150,000 EXP.
Hidden Requirements: 'Felonia Project Discovery' has been completed. You have received 250,000 EXP. You have received a special reward, [Intermediate Gene Blending Potion (4.37% Low Concentration)] x1
Blood Pact Society's favorability increased by 550 points. Current Neutral (550/1,000) – [Scorpse-level Assassin]
Han Xiao's eyes lit up. The Gene Blending Potion was an unconventional game item. Its function was to reduce the failure rate and mutation rate of the biochemical potion!
Biochemical potions were a common type of potion that increased one's attributes. However, any biochemical potion had its own risks. There was a chance of lowering one's attributes and causing mutation. Biochemical potions also conflicted with each other. The Gene Blending Potion could make up for the shortcomings of the biochemical potion to a certain extent.
I see. If I didn't enter the abandoned base and didn't find the Felonia Serum, this unknown reward wouldn't have been effective.
Han Xiao figured out the crux of the matter. The reward was linked to his actions. This was an additional reward for the exploration. The 002 test subject was equivalent to a mini-boss guarding the serum.
His cautious behavior during exploration allowed him to avoid many difficult checkpoints. The footprints of the pilgrims were a guide. If he ignored the guide and went in the opposite direction, he would be surrounded by a bunch of experimental subjects and desert worms.
If he chose the left side because he was afraid of monsters, he would miss the opportunity to obtain the serum.
If he entered the right corridor with the flashlight, he would trigger the battle of Test Subject 002 at the first door. The narrow space of the corridor made it impossible to dodge, so it was difficult to move forward. He could only exit the corridor.
If one was greedy and wanted to continue exploring after obtaining the serum, the consequences would be the same as the first rule.
This reward was truly a pleasant surprise. Han Xiao couldn't wait to study it. After handing in the mission, he was about to leave when the person in charge suddenly said, "Mr. Black, may I ask if you can stay in Morning Wind City for the next two days? There's an important guest who wants to see you. "
"Honored guest?" Han Xiao was puzzled.
"The messenger of the Rothschild Family, the client of the Rose Militant's bounty mission. He wishes to meet you."
Could it be that he's here for Felonia? Han Xiao's eyes flashed. "Please tell him that I'm happy to meet him."
The person in charge was overjoyed. "Okay."
After leaving Hotel Victoria, Han Xiao returned to Antonio's base and went straight to the workshop that was temporarily allocated to him. He took out a tube of Felonia serum and the low-concentration gene blending agent that was rewarded by the mission.
The Felonia serum had a fluorescent yellow color. It was well-sealed and had not deteriorated even after a few decades.
Low concentration gene blending agent. Silver specks sparkled in the solution, and it was as viscous as mercury.
To use or not to use it? That was the question.
The Felonia serum was a hidden item that he had never seen before. However, the mid-level gene blending agent could greatly reduce the risk and was very reliable.
Han Xiao calculated the success rate and the losses. In the end, he decided to do it. With the gene blending agent, even if the serum failed, he would not become a muscle dummy like the experimental subjects.
He took out a syringe and a catheter, inserted it into the vein in his arm, and injected the gene blending agent. A cool feeling flowed through his blood and circulated throughout his body. It was as refreshing as eating ice cream on a hot summer day. Even his soul felt calmer. The gene blending agent was harmless to the body. If it was not activated by the biochemical agent, it would gradually dissipate.
Han Xiao took a deep breath and started to inject the Felonia serum. The fluorescent agent was injected into his blood through the catheter.
The swelling sensation exploded in his body!
Han Xiao gritted his teeth. His whole body was in so much pain that he could not control it. He felt as if his body had exploded into a paste. His bones were crushed, his veins were torn, and his flesh was melting. The inhumane pain struck his brain again and again, and he almost fainted!
When players used items and created machines, there was a limit to the amount of pain they could feel. However, he wanted to experience it in real life!
Of course, to him, the benefits far outweighed the disadvantages. He had already gained a lot from it, but he had to bear the cost of 100% of his senses.
After an unknown amount of time, the pain slowly subsided. Han Xiao's eyes were bloodshot. He let out a deep breath. He felt that his nerves had been severely damaged.
He lowered his head and looked at his body. Luckily, he did not become muscular. He still looked the same as before, and he still looked as handsome as before.
He did not have the energy to look at the interface just now. Only now did he realize that the interface was flooded with messages.
You have used the Felonia serum (Incomplete). Assimilation progress: 12%. Mutation Test … Test Passed! (Gene blending agent reduces failure rate)
You have used the Felonia serum (Incomplete). Assimilation progress: 46%. Mutation Test Passed!
You have used the Felonia serum (Incomplete). Assimilation progress: 73%. Mutation Test Passed!
You have used the Felonia serum (Incomplete). Assimilation progress: 100%. Assimilation complete! Compatibility: Excellent
You have received 3 STR and 5 END!
You have received the talent [Elementary Strengthened Life]!
Han Xiao's body trembled. He looked at the interface in disbelief. There was a new talent [Elementary Strengthened Life].
This is a Molding Talent! Han Xiao was shocked.
There was a very special type of talent called Molding Talents. At least to his knowledge, he had never heard of a player obtaining a Molding Talent. Molding Talents were exclusive to NPCs and BOSSes. They were extremely powerful and rare even for NPCs.
The effect of [Elementary Strengthened Life] increased his health points from Endurance. The ratio was 1: 15. In other words, he now had 66 points of Endurance, which was equivalent to 990 extra health points. His health points had almost doubled. He now had more than 2,000 health points!
Furthermore, this effect increased his health points along with his Endurance.
At level 30, his health points were already more than 2,000. Even the level 38 Pugilist Pan Kuang did not have as much health as he did now.
"Is it because my template is an NPC?" Han Xiao guessed. He could even issue missions to players. It was not impossible for him to have a Molding Talent.
If a player used the Felonia serum, they would only gain attribute points and would not awaken any talents.
"If this talent is paired with my Magnetically-Controlled Armor and future mechanical armor, I'll be able to make my enemies vomit!"
Han Xiao was pleasantly surprised. He was very satisfied with this talent. His health had increased by a large margin.
The rewards from this mission were quite bountiful. Mission rewards, killing enemies, and crafting rewards had accumulated more than 700,000 experience points!
He counted the blueprints. There were nineteen of them. He only needed one more to complete the class change mission. Han Xiao thought for a while and decided to create equipment that increased his movement speed.
Do you wish to proceed with Knowledge Fusion (Lv. 4 Basic Electromagnetic Theory, Lv. 3 Basic Energy Theory, Lv. 4 Basic Mechanical Engineering, Lv. 2)? 20,000 experience points.
There were quite a few blueprints for this combination. Han Xiao was not sure if he could get the equipment he wanted. He planned to try the fusion three times. If he could not get the equipment after three tries, he would try to create his own.
On the third try, he got the equipment that met his requirements — the Skateboard Shoes.
Han Xiao scratched his head. One of the first two blueprints was completely useless. He could not say whether he was lucky or not. Being able to fuse the blueprints saved him a lot of time.
The full name of the Skateboard Shoes was Electromagnetic Levitation Power Boots. It could be used alone or mounted on a small mechanical suit. It could greatly increase one's movement speed without hindering one's ability to dodge attacks.
The other two blueprints were coincidentally created. One of them was called Swarm, and the other was called Heart.
You have completed the Class Change Mission.
Class Change Successful! You have received a new class [Trainee Mechanic]. + 50 Energy, + 1 DEX, + 1 END, + 4 INT. You have received 3 Free Attribute Points. You have received 1 Potential Point.
You have learned [Fine Repair]!
You have learned [Intermediate Strengthening]!
The two core skills of the Mechanic class, Repair and Strengthening, had finally evolved.
The Trainee Mechanic class was the third stage of the Mechanic class. It did not require a lot of experience points to level up from level one because it was a class with a maximum level of fifteen.
Han Xiao leveled up three times in a row.
His total level was thirty-four, and he put all his Free Attribute Points into Intelligence as usual.
Han Xiao still had some experience points left. After thinking about it, he decided to level up [Sliding Shot]. This skill had helped him many times. Furthermore, the Mechanic class lacked combat skills, so every active skill was very important. He was not in a hurry to level up Overload. The effect of level one was already strong enough.
[Sliding Shot] was leveled up to level four, and its effect was stronger. At the same time, the energy cost was increased to eight points. Han Xiao now had almost nine hundred points of energy, which was very plentiful.
He used up all his experience points again.
The huge amount of experience points had been exchanged for combat power. His Energy Rank was over five hundred, and with the help of his machinery, it was close to seven hundred. With his current strength, he could easily defeat Pan Kuang without Norsa's Character Summon Card.
