I'm a proper student; I only take nine kinds of potions every day.

"But things are different now!"

After summarizing, Evan, to prevent any accidents, quickly put the cane back into his storage space.

Seeing that the transformation time was about to arrive, Ivan immediately returned to a safe spot far away from the ghoul horde.

Then, a dozen seconds later, Ivan suddenly felt an indescribable, intense pain.

Then he found his vision starting to drop rapidly, and he felt an indescribable weakness throughout his body.

Its size kept shrinking, its wings quickly contracted, its scales and mane kept falling away, and the distorted shape of its head gradually returned to normal.

The unique form of the Nine Dragon Tyrant dissipated as the effects of the potion gradually wore off.

At the same time, strange roars kept ringing in his ears, and his mind was completely muddled.

The pain of having every tissue and muscle in his body completely torn apart assaulted his rationality and self-awareness.

After all, during the transformation and restoration process, the bones of his brain, body, and all his muscles undergo a physiological restructuring.

Especially when your head is being constantly pried open, and the sound of your skull rubbing against itself rings in your ears...

Eben instinctively worried that this state would crush his brain.

This state, combined with the impact of the potion's side effects, is terrifying.

It was no longer the usual eerie whispers, but rather caused Ivan to experience hallucinations and self-doubt.

"It feels like I've lost all my blood..."

"My eyes seem to be going blind!"

"My head is going to explode!"

……

The feeling was very real; Evan always felt that something in his body was constantly bleeding out, and his body was getting weaker and weaker.

At the same time, he felt his vision getting darker and darker, and he seemed to be gradually losing his ability to see things.

This torturous state caused him to instinctively fall into intense fear.

Those murky whispers echoed repeatedly in his mind.

Tell him over and over that he is dying, that his blood is being drained, that his bones are breaking from the inside...

This kind of hallucination is extremely deadly.

Because ordinary superhumans cannot precisely quantify their bodies, they only have a general sense of what their bodies are like.

Once such intense self-doubt arises, it can even lead to the situation where one scares themselves to death.

Fortunately, Evan had the help of the control panel at this time.

In a panic, Ivan quickly looked at the attribute panel.

"No bleeding debuff, no brain damage debuff, no blindness debuff!"

"Hallucination! It's all a hallucination!"

The relevant data on the attribute panel quickly helped Evan correct his perception.

In addition, the permanent reduction in pain granted by the Copper Elixir from the past, along with the adaptations gained from all the battles, combined with the additional 200% spiritual strength from the Spiritual Moon.

With these four measures combined, Evan quickly stabilized his mental state, which had been gripped by self-doubt.

As his mental state stabilized, Evan immediately felt the bleeding and darkening of his vision gradually subside.

"I see... The extraordinary is a relatively idealistic state."

"The more you doubt yourself, the more terrifying the negative effects will be."

"As long as you are confident enough, those effects will dissipate."

While pondering the situation, Ivan looked at the records on the panel regarding the losses incurred.

Due to the potion chain effect caused by Moonlight Potion and Penetrating Potion, he endured the injection side effects of three basic potions this time.

Fortunately, his strong physical condition and drug resistance allowed him to barely withstand the terrifying side effects of the three magical potions.

[You have been injected with a fast-acting gecko potion: Your blood quality has been permanently reduced by 50%; your self-healing ability has been permanently reduced by 50%]

[You have been injected with a fast-acting Night Demon Potion: Your eyesight has decreased, and your physical constitution has permanently decreased by 0.1.]

Your perception has decreased, and your mental state has permanently decreased by 0.1.

Your solar affinity has been permanently reduced by 30%.

[The fast-acting Moonlight Potion you injected has permanently reduced your blood quality by 20% and your overall constitution by 0.2.]

Your flexibility has been permanently reduced by 10%.

After seeing these reduced attributes, Ivan couldn't help but sigh.

"Goodness, these attribute drops are really comprehensive!"

"However, this little bit of stuff won't fundamentally affect my current attribute panel."

"Take more medicine in the future, and you can basically recover in half a month."

P.S.: This walking stick is amazing! Please vote with monthly tickets!!

Chapter 228: Taking a deep breath, she's truly a wonderful senior sister! (Seeking monthly votes)

Carefully examining the changes in his attributes, he realized that such a slight decrease in attributes wouldn't cause him to be on the verge of a mental breakdown.

Ivan has essentially identified the core issues.

"It seems that the core side effect of the potion injection is not the reduction of attributes, but the impact of bestiality on the mind."

"Beastly instincts... truly are the most potent poison!"

"I was thinking that as long as the attribute reduction from the combat potion I plan to take in the future is less than the attribute increase from the potion I am currently taking, I can take the potion first and then tough out the side effects in battle."

"But it's not realistic now."

"Oral administration is okay, but injections are unbearable; the beastly impact is terrifying."

"But to unleash the Nine Dragons Tyrant, one must inject it and simultaneously bear the cursed bestial nature..."

"The panel's key function is secondary; the attribute increases and decreases are secondary. The crucial thing is that it helps me suppress my bestial nature!"

Thinking of this, Ivan shook his head.

Even though his spirit was already so firm due to the enhancement of various magical potions, and his enhanced self-awareness, willpower, and mental strength reached 7 points!

With the help of the attribute panel to revise his understanding, and the boost from potion resistance, he was able to barely withstand the impact of these three basic potions.

"Next time, we must reserve nine squares!"

"While these things don't have much impact on attributes, they have a huge impact on the brain!"

"Meow~"

Just as Evan was lost in thought, accompanied by a meow, Evan turned his head to look at Gold, who was looking up at him.

The secondary brain is now attached to the golden body, and within its soft body, it is grasping something.

Those were two jet-black ribs.

It was the superior rib belonging to the Black Sun Forger that Klaus used to control himself!

"This is good stuff!"

Upon seeing such a treasure, Ivan's dazed eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly stuffed the things into his backside.

Then Ivan tapped his head for the third time: "Now, only collecting loot can cheer me up!"

Ivan wasn't worried about the aimless ghouls.

With a casual cloak of shadows draped over his shoulders, Ivan easily blended into the ghoul horde.

The remaining loot was then quickly retrieved on the ground.

Including the gold and the two ribs that the secondary brain found, Ivan recovered a total of six Black Sun Forger ribs.

Apart from these ribs, there was nothing else of value.

After all, the battlefield was already in ruins, with large areas completely corroded by its own poisonous breath.

With such a fierce battle just now, it's uncertain whether we'll even survive. We have no time to care about the quality of the spoils!

Many of the extraordinary individuals who enter are also souls, and they generally have an attitude of having nothing to lose and not caring if they die.

"No matter what, getting the Holy Bone Staff is already a huge win!"

Then Ivan spread his wings and quickly scanned the entire area, only to find that he hadn't licked a single bag.

"Tsk! So stingy!"

After confirming that there were no other bags to lick, Evan looked around and suddenly became somewhat bewildered.

"Wait! How am I supposed to get back?"

Given his current status as an expert, he cannot freely enter and exit the Dream Realm.

Everyone around was dead!

Just as Evan was scratching his head, he suddenly heard the sound of wind in his ear.

He hurriedly turned his head and saw a silver-gray portal with a steel-like texture suddenly appear not far from him.

The entire entrance was shrouded in a gray mist.

Just as Evan was about to take precautions, he sensed a familiar presence emanating from the portal.

Then, under Ivan's gaze, a beautiful woman with long silver-white hair and golden vertical pupils, wearing a black high-necked lace robe, walked out.

It was Hill!

Hill, who came out of the door, held his forehead and looked a little dazed.

Then she quickly turned her head to look around, her eyes instantly locking onto Evan not far away.

"Evan!!!"

Upon seeing this, Hill hurriedly waved his hand and shouted loudly.
