Hunter x Hunter: Infinite Growth

There is no traditional propulsion mechanism at the back of the syringe; the syringe is designed to be nested with the medication.

It is a relatively advanced syringe structure.

The size of the cavity in the middle was just right, just enough to fit the medicine inside.

Even if the medicine is sealed inside, it can be extracted from the air.

As for Nen abilities, you can't expect them to be exactly the same as real-world medicines.

Looking at the needle tip, it seems ordinary at first glance, with nothing special about it.

Upon closer inspection, it really wasn't anything special; it was just an ordinary needle.

【syringe】

Kevin looked at the Nen manifestation in his hand and inserted the prepared medicine into the syringe.

He inserted it directly into his own thigh.

As the needle pierced my thigh, a slight stinging sensation came through.

The medicine disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Kevin simply let go.

Within two seconds, the drug was completely absorbed into the body, and then the syringe itself disappeared after use.

The potion Kevin used this time was the [Power Potion].

He was so familiar with this medicine that he could accurately judge the differences in the changes it brought about, even the subtle ones.

This is a good opportunity to verify the differences brought about by my Nen ability.

He immediately felt an effect that was completely different from before.

The drug's effects became stronger, as if it had been enhanced in some way.

However, the enhancement effect is limited, but that's understandable.

Kevin actively activates the "Blank Meteor" to continue updating his memory of the potion's effects.

But it clearly failed.

Although the drug's effects were enhanced, Kevin was unable to retain the enhanced effects of the [Injector].

What he could still remember was the effect of the "oral" medication.

However, the improvement brought by the [syringe] is that the duration of the effect of the injected medicine is doubled.

The time was extended from fifteen minutes to half an hour.

This represents a significant leap forward, greatly enhancing Kevin's combat endurance.

This allows the body to remember the effects of the medication for a longer period of time.

Moreover, because it is administered via injection, the "memory" left by the drug's effects in the body is more profound.

This is the key point Kevin put so much effort into building this ability; this is the most important thing.

In other words, what used to require 10 doses of medication to restore the body's memory capacity now only requires about 7 or 6 doses.

This is crucial for Kevin.

His Nen abilities work together, with the core objective of ensuring that the effects of the "potion" are permanent.

Everything is done for this purpose.

Everything else is just an add-on.

He attempted to make his body remember things that would otherwise be impossible to remember through muscle memory by strengthening and abstracting the concept of "muscle memory".

This is precisely the characteristic of strengthening the ability of attachment; the essence of the enhancement system is to strengthen the original qualities.

Whether it's strengthening one's own characteristics or strengthening the characteristics of external objects, it can be strengthened into a kind of seemingly unreasonable "abstract concept".

It makes people exclaim, "Is this even a thing?"

But that's the unique charm of enhancement-type abilities.

The key to the Enhancement type is, of course, to throw a powerful punch, but don't think that the Enhancement type can only throw a powerful punch.

Each department is extremely profound.

Once you understand Kevin's goals, you'll realize that everything he does has a reason.

Kevin concocted various potions and acquired many materials.

He had to admit that many high-grade rare materials are "unique".

The "uniqueness" here does not mean absolutely unique, but rather that it is very difficult to find the exact same organism and the materials it produces.

The most typical example is the jewel fish scales that Bisky gave him. They were products of a mutated fish, and finding the same creature as material would be virtually impossible.

There are countless examples like this.

Although Kevin calls himself a Phantom Beast Hunter, he has never actually seen a Phantom Beast, and the only rare beast he has ever seen is a two-headed wolf.

I have seen quite a few monsters.

The dangerous forbidden areas are mostly because too many monsters inhabit them.

The reason why mythical beasts are called mythical beasts is because they are extremely rare, existing only in legends and a few scattered clues.

These kinds of beasts are almost all unique, and the materials they produce are naturally very limited.

If these materials can be used to create the highly effective "potion" that Kevin dreams of, then the body needs to "memorize" the abilities that the potion brings.

However, Kevin Ming clearly felt that there was a process involved in the body memorizing these special abilities.

Moreover, the amount of medication required for the memory process varies depending on the ability and the effectiveness of the medication.

What is certain is that the more powerful and rare a power is, the harder it is for the body to remember it.

This means that more medicine will be needed to achieve the goal.

But what if the number of potions produced is limited? What if we can't remember all of these abilities?

Take the [Power Potion] as an example. Its effect increases gradually, and even if you run out of the potion, you can still learn the ability.

It may not be able to achieve the best results, but at least it means that a skill has been acquired.

But with abilities like the Iron Wall Potion, you either learn it or you don't. If you're missing just one bottle of the potion, you'll never master that ability.

Even if the progress bar reaches 99%, it's useless if you're just 1% short.

Kevin experienced this kind of torment when he was trying to memorize the "Iron Wall" ability.

I had prepared about twenty doses of the medicine, but in the end I only had three or four left. The emotional ups and downs were really unbearable.

If you fail to memorize the ability, all your previous efforts will be wasted, resulting in huge losses.

These potions provide powerful buffs when used in battle, and the ability to remember also comes into play in combat.

The problem is that the number of these rare drugs is limited.

Therefore, medication must be taken during daily training to improve memory.

However, if you use rare materials to make potions and then use them in your studies, you might not learn the corresponding abilities.

However, all of these medications were used up during training, so they couldn't be saved for emergencies, which would be a real waste.

From rare materials to the preparation of medicines, and the time spent on training, a great deal of effort and resources may be wasted.

Just thinking about it made Kevin's heart ache.

Therefore, the primary function of the [syringe] ability is not to enhance the effects of the drug; that is merely a secondary benefit.

Its core function is to prolong the duration of the drug's effect; doubling the duration is equivalent to having double the amount of drug.

At the same time, it enhances the depth of the drug's effects in the body, making it easier for the body to remember these abilities.

Now that both goals have been achieved, Kevin feels that his Nen ability construction has been very successful.

"Cool!"

Kevin was overjoyed by his success.

"So here's the question: does the secondary refinement I want require additional memory, or can it be improved automatically once my strength increases?"

The so-called secondary refining was an inspiration given to him by Kito.

Combining the three ingredients together to make the product may not necessarily achieve the perfect result I envision.

Simply put, they've become more greedy.

We want a more powerful and comprehensive medicine.

So Kido asked him, "Could you use the prepared potion as one ingredient and then add other ingredients to it for a second refining process?"

At least at the time, Kevin thought it wouldn't work, and experiments proved that.

The problem is that Kido has very high expectations for this possibility.

It must be acknowledged that Kita, as one of the twelve earthly branches, has a very deep understanding of Nen abilities, which is something Kevin cannot match at present.

So even when they parted, Kido was still reminding Kevin to try to explore in this direction.

Kevin had also consulted Bisky about this issue.

Bisky indicated that such a possibility exists.

As strength increases, the original Nen ability will become stronger, the most basic manifestation of which is to reduce or even eliminate side effects and enhance the original effect.

This is normal, and it should be.

While "Specialty" Nen abilities are innate and do not require self-construction, many of these abilities can be upgraded after certain conditions are met.

Some of them become even more powerful as their strength increases, but the possibility of them becoming more powerful is simply greater than that of other systems.

Of course, not all Nen abilities have this upgrade function, but Kevin might just happen to have it.

If all else fails, perhaps Kevin can achieve the same level of improvement once he becomes strong enough.

Kevin had originally planned to add this Nen ability if he had enough memory, but unfortunately his memory is now exhausted.

The syringe has used up all the remaining memory.

Moreover, the effect of secondary refining can be improved by enhancing one's strength.

However, it is impossible to know at what stage of strength one must reach for a change to occur.

Nosla Estate

Indoor training dojo

The spacious indoor training hall resembles a medium-sized indoor gymnasium.

In reality, the two may be quite similar in essence.

This is a two-story building located within the estate, adjacent to a grove of trees.

After all, a so-called estate is a large-scale regional building located in a private, small forest adjacent to the city.

The building is oval in shape and lies quietly on the ground.

If it were located in the city, it would be a standard small stadium, but now that it is built on Nosla Estate, it has become a private venue.

Building such a place was not difficult for Nosla Manor, after all, they were the underground kings of the city.

Moreover, they are now gradually moving to the forefront, trying to wash away the grime from their bodies.

The company has been established, and although the drugs have not yet been fully rolled out for sale, their position remains as solid as a rock and unshakeable.

This two-story training dojo has a lower level used for combat and various training areas requiring an open space, while the upper level is equipped with a variety of training equipment designed to help people enhance their abilities.

This building was constructed in the few months following Kevin and Wright's collaboration, and it was officially put into use at the beginning of this month.

At this moment, in the training ground, the three members of the Kurta tribe, Neon, and Kevin are all undergoing training.

"That's amazing! When will I be able to reach that level?"

Kurapika, who was resting, sat on a stool and looked at Kevin, who stood tall and straight in the center of the field, and couldn't help but sigh.

Since they "opened their minds", their eyes have been able to clearly see the existence of Qi.

From then on, the world seemed to have gained many different colors in their eyes.
