83: Enhanced serum
After giving his instructions, the integrated devices on both wrists soon dimmed.
Asroth went off to carry out the mission with great enthusiasm.
As for the Statue of Liberty, ever since obtaining the project on "De-materialized High-Level Servers," she had dedicated nearly ninety percent of her computing power to advancing this research.
Zhang Huaiyuan looked at his left and right hands, which had finally quieted down, and sighed helplessly.
That's right, this was the joint request of the Statue of Liberty and Asroth; they did not want to appear in the same device to communicate with him.
Consequently, he was forced to wear two communication integration devices.
"I've been slacking off for two days; it's time to work hard."
After stretching his limbs a little, Zhang Huaiyuan got up and walked towards the laboratory.
There are no shortcuts on the road of scientific research, only racing against time.
He opened his spatial storage device and took out a pale blue injection.
"Targeted Evolution Serum" can comprehensively improve physical fitness. According to the description from the Statue of Liberty, it is currently the most effective, mass-producible agent with low side effects in the Star Alliance.
"It's time to say goodbye to this frail body."
Zhang Huaiyuan injected it into his arm without hesitation.
Agents like this that promote cellular genetic evolution are usually accompanied by immense pain, but a real man never fears...
"Ugh...!"
In an instant, a sensation of pain exceeding level ten spread from his arm to every part of his body.
Even though he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but groan.
His entire body suddenly collapsed to the ground, curling up into a ball.
Enduring the pain, Zhang Huaiyuan took out a pale pink injection from the storage device and jabbed it into his arm.
The nanoscale cell continuous repair fluid can significantly reduce negative interference caused by pain.
Soon, a gentle force flowed through him, instantly diluting the pain brought on by the serum.
"Then again, there's no need for a real man to suffer unnecessarily..."
Zhang Huaiyuan gave a self-deprecating smile and activated True Sight to scan his own changes.
He saw that wherever the pale blue agent flowed, the number of mitochondria surged, muscle cell volume increased, and bone density rose significantly.
His originally thin and weak physique gradually developed streamlined muscle curves.
Until an hour later, the blue serum was finally exhausted.
Zhang Huaiyuan lightly clenched his fist, feeling unprecedentedly strong, and the lingering fatigue caused by long-term irregular sleep patterns had also vanished without a trace.
He walked quickly to the strength testing device, adjusted his posture, and suddenly threw three consecutive punches.
"6201KG."
"6206KG."
"6198KG."
"Not bad. I remember that before, without an exoskeleton, my full-force strike was only about 120KG. I've become sixty times stronger in one go."
A smile appeared on Zhang Huaiyuan's face.
He didn't expect a mass-producible evolution serum to turn him into a superman; otherwise, those Transcendents who trained so hard would become a joke. As long as he wouldn't find it difficult to stay up late doing research like before, that was enough.
As for the improvement of his own strength, he actually had two final concepts.
First, to divide the nearly 40 trillion cells in his body into different independent parts, and engrave powerful Transcendent patterns into each cell to achieve the concentration of myriad great powers in one body.
Second, focusing on his repeatedly enhanced brain, to find a singularity that can coexist with the void, allowing his mental power to build a "network" covering the entire world, where reality and illusion exist between a single thought.
Of course... this is just a final concept. Realizing it is impossible based on current technology; just the most basic problem of energy supply is an insurmountable mountain.
"It's a pity I can't see my own Transcendent pattern."
Thinking of this, Zhang Huaiyuan felt some regret.
His brain region evolved with every advancement, and his current thinking ability was no weaker than an ordinary supercomputer.
Logically, such brain processing speed would also consume a large amount of energy, but he seemed to remain the same as before, not needing to eat high-quality energy stones as food.
If he could analyze himself, he might be able to gain inspiration for a breakthrough in energy.
"As expected, there are no shortcuts on the road of science."
Zhang Huaiyuan shook his head and, after entering the small virtual space to fully adapt to his newly acquired strength, returned to the laboratory bench.
These were all devices purchased at a great cost; if he accidentally broke them, it would be heartbreaking.
He looked at the research currently present on the data panel.
Creatology: Current progress 26.8%.
Energy Studies: Current progress 0.19%.
Transcendent Deconstruction Theory: Current progress 31.2%.
De-materialized High-Level Servers: Current progress 0.92%.
In terms of difficulty, with the large amount of genetic data newly provided by the Statue of Liberty, Transcendent Deconstruction Theory is the easiest to improve.
However, this subject has already reached over 30% progress, and combined with the effect of True Sight, it can perfectly achieve the conversion of mechanical language for S-level and below Transcendent patterns.
Even if the research goes deeper, with the current level of brain evolution, it is still very difficult to analyze SS-level or above Transcendence Level patterns, so it won't be of much help in the short term.
"The best choices are the first and the second."
Zhang Huaiyuan thought quietly.
Improving the progress of Creatology can allow the Statue of Liberty and Asroth to evolve again.
Especially the Statue of Liberty; although she can currently bypass many restrictions, the lowest-level core restriction algorithms still firmly bind her.
She can only provide a little help secretly through certain means.
And if he could go a step further, completely get rid of the underlying restrictions, and get the full support of the Statue of Liberty, the progress of various research projects would be greatly accelerated.
As for Energy Studies, as the foundation of everything, if a certain breakthrough could be achieved, it is highly likely that other research would also make great progress.
"The former requires going to the Free Star Alliance, where there is a large amount of data and restricted-level achievements that the Statue of Liberty cannot currently take out."
"For the latter, the only thing that can be referenced at present is the restricted area below Sea Tree Island."
"If only I could split into two."
Zhang Huaiyuan sighed slightly and quickly made a decision in his heart.

As a side note, according to my plan for this book, besides mechanical intelligence, the Zerg, Undead, and even the Fourth Calamity will likely appear later~
So it doesn't belong to the sci-fi category~ However, the tags were automatically changed. Everyone, just enjoy it for fun; don't take some places and data too seriously, thank you~
