Chapter 324 Explosion Potion, A Counter-Plot

Sublimation agent, formerly known as rock horn rage hormone, can stimulate rock horn cell membrane receptors in a short period of time, causing cells and tissues to enter a state of hyperactivity.

By stimulating the evolutionary cells of the rock hornbill to rapidly proliferate and divide, or to cause high-frequency contraction and relaxation, users can experience a physical enhancement of at least 30%.

This translates to a dual burst of power and speed in Rock Horse Warriors or Rock Horse Armor, granting them both the exceptional endurance of Rockhorns and explosive power.

Its combat power is comparable to several beings of the same level.

The only drawback is that the sublimation agent stimulates the cells of rockhorse too intensely. It is a mixture of hormones produced by male rockhorses during the breeding season in order to compete for mating rights and leadership. Through a short period of state and life overdraft, they gain leadership and reproductive power.

During this period, the winner will not only gain fame and fortune, but will also break through the evolution level and become a stronger evolved rockhorn, or even a rockhorn behemoth.

However, the losers will die from exhaustion, and many of them will collapse from overexertion during fights between males.

This is reflected in the Rock Horse Warriors of human evolutionaries, such as Li Mingquan, who was devoured and digested alive by the Rock Horse Armor during the previous arena battle.

Although Li Hao did this intentionally, it also shows how terrifying the sublimation potion is, making it a double-edged sword for the Rock Horse Warriors.

However, for Han Tao at this moment, the circumstances no longer allowed him to hesitate or look around.

No matter how strong Lin Feng is, the ammunition in his weapons is limited. Moreover, the last time he was able to severely injure Lang Ao, it was thanks to the bishop's desperate fight and Li Hao's sacrifice.

With only the Salvation Army leader remaining, he can't hold off Wolf Ao for long. Once this ancient behemoth breaks free from White Night behind it and charges into the Salvation Army convoy...

As a Rockhorse Warrior, with the evolved flesh and blood of the Rockhorse within him, he would undoubtedly become a delicious meal in Wolf Ao's eyes. After overdrawing so much of his condition and consuming a large amount of reserves, Wolf Ao would definitely use him as a target to replenish his energy.

At that time, no one will stand up for a rock horse warrior in the early stage of the second tier; in fact, they might even be happy to see it happen.

Just like Lin Feng used himself as bait before.

If the Rock Horse Warriors could be used to buy Lin Feng the best opportunity to make his move, not to mention Lin Feng himself, both Xu Wanfeng, the president of the Wilderness Hunter Guild, and Bai Ye, the leader of the Salvation Army, would wholeheartedly agree.

Perhaps this was their initial plan.

That's why he specifically saved himself when he was unconscious.

With this in mind, Han Tao was determined to escape. His expression became completely solemn, and with a fierce look in his eyes, he forcefully plunged the sublimation potion in his hand into his chest.

This was his only chance to escape.

The power armor is now severely damaged, reducing its boost from 50% to 20%, and leaving it with less than ten minutes of remaining range.

This means that the original plan to escape by relying on the speed of the powered armor is no longer feasible.

Han Tao could only rely on the explosive state brought about by the rock horse behemoth cells contained in his own bloodline under the stimulation of the sublimation drug.

Fortunately, as a formal member of the Life Farm, Han Tao was not qualified to obtain the pure sublimation agent, but he could still obtain the scraps from the extraction process to synthesize a secondary diluted version of the sublimation agent.

Han Tao, who was originally only at the early stage of the second tier of evolution, could at most obtain the status of an entry-level member. Core resources such as the sublimation potion, even if they were diluted versions, were beyond his understanding and acquisition.

However, because he accepted the mission from Oasis Town to ensure that the Li family and Li Hao would act according to the tasks assigned by the Life Farm, Han Tao was promoted to a formal member and was able to exchange for many resources at a 30% discount.

This includes the diluted sublimation reagents that have been put into mass production in recent years.

To be precise, it can no longer be called an evolution potion, because it does not bring about a breakthrough in evolution level after injection, and only retains a significant increase in physical attributes.

Therefore, it is internally called the Burst Potion, and is also known as the Berserk Potion.

This potion is light pink in color and can increase the strength and speed of Rock Horse Warriors by at least 30% for a short period of time.

The specific amplification effect diminishes as the user's own evolution level increases.

For example, a Tier 2 early-stage Rock Horse Warrior can get about 50% of the boost, while for a Tier 2 mid-stage warrior, it's only 20% to 30%.

As for the late-stage second-tier Rock Horse Warriors, the effect after injecting them into the experimental subjects was not obvious, estimated to be less than 10%.

After all, the latter achieved its breakthrough using a concentrated version of the sublimation potion, and its hormone concentration might be even higher than that of the diluted version.

However, the use of explosive agents is not without its costs or side effects.

However, compared to the original Ascension Potion, the cost of using it is much lower. It will weaken you for a long time, and at worst, it will only cause you to drop in evolution level, without endangering your life.

After Han Tao received the injection, he could unleash the physical strength of a mid-stage Tier 24 warrior within ten minutes, and his movement speed would also soar to 200 meters per second. With the remaining kinetic energy from the power armor, escaping the pursuit of the evolved wolves in the chaos of battle would be a piece of cake.

Furthermore, with the Salvation Army right in front of them, the Wasteland Wolf Clan couldn't possibly send a second-tier Wasteland Wolf behemoth to hunt down a Rock Horse Warrior.

Most importantly, with one of the three giant wild wolves dead and two wounded, the only one that could pose a threat to Han Tao was the giant wolf Ao, who was fighting Bai Ye behind him.

For a Tier 2 peak being like this, killing a Tier 2 early stage rock horse warrior is just a piece of cake. It can be done casually during the battles to destroy the Salvation Army and Oasis Town, but there is no need to come here specifically to hunt it down.

After all, this is no different from picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons. Even if Oasis Town cannot be captured after a long siege, the value that the hundreds of evolved beings here in the Salvation Army, as well as Xu Wanfeng and Lin Feng in the mid-stage of the second tier, can bring is far greater than that of an ordinary early-stage Rock Horse Warrior.

At this moment, Han Tao felt his cells and flesh were being stimulated by the hormones of the medicine, which accelerated the repair of his injuries. At the same time, the aura emanating from Han Tao rose from the original weak early stage of the second tier to the upper limit of the early stage and finally broke through to the mid-stage level.

However, the cautious Han Tao immediately restrained his aura at the very beginning of the release, to prevent the expanding momentum from dissipating.

A Tier 2 early-stage Rock Horse Warrior might not be worth Wolf Ao giving up the resources of the Salvation Army and Oasis Town, but a Tier 2 mid-stage Rock Horse Warrior is enough to allow Wolf Ao's painstakingly cultivated Tier 2 early-stage Wild Wolf Beast to break through its limit and advance further, becoming a mid-stage existence.

This lays the foundation for inheriting the Wolf King's legacy and becoming the new Tier 3 Wolf King.

This is probably also the original purpose of Lang Ao's attack on Oasis Town, because the existence of Li Hao, the head of the Li family, and the level 26 Rockhorse evolution meat in his body are enough to allow the multi-headed wild wolf behemoth to advance to the mid-stage of the second tier.

After receiving the injection of the burst potion, Han Tao recovered from all his injuries within a few dozen seconds and stood up.

The Salvation Army support personnel on both sides immediately cast admiring glances at them.

After all, the opponent was a second-tier evolved being, who not only possessed such powerful recovery abilities, but also intended to step forward and continue fighting despite being injured.

This spirit deserves respect.

However, they were of course unaware that the rock horse warrior in front of them was actually thinking about making a quick getaway.

After all, according to the bishop, even if Oasis Town manages to escape the attack of the Wasteland Wolves, it will eventually be taken over by the Holy City.

Now that Li Hao's power grab has failed and he is dead, there's nothing left for him to stay in Oasis Town except for Lin Feng and Li Hao's corpse. Unfortunately, it seems Lin Feng isn't so easy to get along with, nor is he easily fooled with a few words.

Rather than staying behind with the people of the Oasis and facing an uncertain fate, it's better to slip away early and return to the Life Farm branch in the Holy City to report back.

If we encounter people sent by the farm on the way, we might be able to join forces with them and find another opportunity.

In short, Lin Feng and his group have ulterior motives here...

Behind them, the Wilderness Wolf Clan is watching with predatory eyes...

This is definitely not a place for the Rock Horse Warriors to linger!

Facing the watchful eyes of the Salvation Army's logistics personnel, Han Tao, who was already prepared to flee, pulled back the pleated curtains of the car window, and after assessing the situation and terrain, slowly nodded and said:

"The wolf army came with great force, especially attacking the right side of the convoy. Many evolved wild wolves took advantage of the slope to rush forward and engage in close combat..."

"Under these circumstances, even Chief Lin cannot provide safe and stable artillery support. While we still have the strength to fight, let's go and offer some assistance."

The two logistics personnel exchanged a glance, then were overjoyed and quickly agreed:
"Then thank you very much, Your Excellency!"

"With your help, we can greatly reduce casualties and help everyone escape the pursuit!"

Han Tao nodded solemnly, then opened the side door of the carriage and ran straight to the right side of the convoy.

He timed it perfectly; the convoy had just passed a low hillside, less than a hundred meters away, and was at a bend in the road, making it difficult for Lang Ao to notice them from behind.

At the same time, no other second-tier wild wolf behemoths were sensed threateningly in the vicinity.

Even the leader-level giant wolves at the late stage of the first tier had suffered more than half of their casualties from Lin Feng's artillery bombardment and the fighting among the Salvation Army members. At this moment, the giant wolves in good condition were following Lang Ao's orders and were gathering at the forefront of the convoy to intercept the breakout combat team led by Xu Wanfeng.

Therefore, the number of leader-level giant wolves in the vicinity is extremely small. There are only a dozen or so on the right side. More than half of them have been seriously injured by Lin Feng's artillery fire and have retreated to the back of the hillside to eke out a living, with no strength left to fight.

At this moment, while Lang Ao was still entangled with Bai Ye, it was Han Tao's best chance to escape.

The reason for choosing the right side to break through is mainly because the number of wasteland wolves is the smallest there, unlike the left side where a large number of evolved wasteland wolves have gathered to cut off the Salvation Army's chance of entering the Oasis Avenue.

The armored figures that rushed out of the transport vehicle arrived at the right side of the convoy in less than half a second and charged toward the tanks on the outer position.

Han Tao raised his fist, the size of a sandbag, and smashed it hard at a mid-stage Tier 1 wasteland wolf that was tearing at the armor of a chariot.

The power boost from the burst potion allowed Han Tao to easily unleash a force of over thirty tons, instantly shattering the head of the mid-stage wasteland wolf into a burst of blood mist.

The wolf's body behind it was also blasted dozens of meters away, crashing onto the gravel slope and shattering into pieces.

But Han Tao did not stop. After easily clearing the obstacles in his path, he continued to rush forward without stopping, directly breaking away from the defensive position at the edge of the convoy.

The reason he was so anxious was not only because the opportunity was fleeting, but also because he sensed a watchful gaze coming from not far away.

The gaze fixed on them came from the top of the cargo box of a heavy truck in the Salvation Army convoy, where Lin Feng was perched on the roof, holding two cannons.

As the unidentified object suddenly appeared, the high-explosive rapid-fire cannon he was using for support instinctively aimed its barrel at it.

The pitch-black muzzle, like the Grim Reaper's scythe, could reap lives with just a gentle pull of the trigger.

Having already been shelled once, Han Tao was particularly acute and fearful of being locked on, and naturally did not want to linger even for half a second longer.

As he sped away, Lin Feng had already clearly seen the familiar figure.

Although the power armor was in pieces, Han Tao was the only one in the Salvation Army wearing it at the moment, and he was still exuding the aura of a second-tier evolved being.

The only thing that surprised Lin Feng was...

When Han Tao awoke from his coma, he unexpectedly exuded the aura of a mid-stage second-tier cultivator from his armor.

On the way up the hillside, many of the late-stage first-tier leader-level giant wolves instinctively retreated, confirming that Lin Feng's senses were correct.

It is clearly illogical that Han Tao could break through to a higher level while severely injured.

Unless he's carrying all his belongings inside the power armor, including seven or eight portions of Tier 2 evolution agents and a large quantity of Tier 2 evolution jerky...

But in terms of time, it's simply not enough.

Less than twenty minutes have passed since Han Tao fell into a coma, making it impossible for him to advance from level twenty-one to the mid-stage of level two.

After much thought, Lin Feng finally noticed a clue in Han Tao's vanished figure.

During his breakout and escape, although he reached a speed of 200 meters per second, he crossed the pack of wolves and climbed over a hillside of more than 100 meters in just half a second.

However, the aura emanating from him was erratic and unpredictable. In fact, the moment Lin Feng locked onto Han Tao, the latter, out of instinctive fear, momentarily caused his aura to drop back to the early stage of the second tier...

This immediately made Lin Feng think of a possibility.

That means Han Tao, being a Rock Horse Warrior and also a spy sent to the Oasis by the Life Farm, must also possess the Sublimation Potion, just like Li Hao.

If the sublimation potion is used, it can indeed unleash extremely strong combat power, even comparable to the late stage of level two.

However, the cost of using sublimation agents is not low.

Although it can briefly unleash extreme power and even achieve a breakthrough in evolution level, once the effects of the drug wear off, the aftereffects will lead to an extremely high mortality rate.

Han Tao was willing to take such a risk to escape this place...

It seems that either he was terrified of the Nergigante Cannon, or he was scared out of his wits by the fierce battle between the wolves behind him...

Thinking of this, Lin Feng's lips curled up slightly.

They were just worried about not having any bait to distract Lang Ao.

Unexpectedly, someone personally delivered it to my door.
