The end of the world is approaching, I'm handing myself over to the country.

[Take the mutation path as an example. The strength gained is directly related to the number of times advanced gene potions are used and the monster blood used in conjunction with them.]

The chances of success have plummeted...

Lin Mo calmed down and began to analyze the situation quickly.

That's reasonable; it would be absurd if it could be used indefinitely.

Having a success rate limit means that the stronger you are, the harder it is to improve.

He quickly processed the information and grasped another key point.

"Monster blood used in conjunction?"

Lin Mo nodded and immediately applied what he had learned to other situations.

"Does that mean the higher the level and the rarer the monster's blood, the greater the boost to combat power?"

Yes, but not entirely.

The system unusually kept them in suspense.

Using advanced gene serums is equivalent to strengthening the body, which will also cause severe pain, but usually the pain is tolerable. However, there is an upper limit to this tolerance.

The little sparrow tilted its head and quickly organized the information.

For example, when using an advanced gene serum for the first time, the amount of monster blood used should not exceed elite level, and preferably should not exceed 200ml.

[Once the force exceeds this limit, there is a high probability that the body will be unable to withstand it and will explode, resulting in death.]

He died from his body exploding.

These four words made Lin Mo's heart, which had just calmed down, jump again.

He quickly realized a crucial issue.

"What about intermediate-level gene serum?"

"Is this restriction also applied to the use of monster blood in combination?"

The little sparrow that the system had transformed into shook its head.

No, that's not the case. Besides, the potions are different, and the methods of using them with the monster's blood are also different.

Monster blood used in conjunction with intermediate-level gene potions generally needs to be heavily diluted.

dilution?

Lin Mo's mind was racing.

This is another key piece of information.

Dilution means that a portion of high-level monster blood can be divided into many portions for use.

This significantly lowers the barrier for players to obtain and use intermediate gene potions.

That's good news.

Regarding this issue, I can make you a special instruction manual if needed.

"That's a good option."

Lin Mo didn't bring this instruction manual for himself.

He only needs to add points to his sales revenue to become stronger.

It's simple and straightforward; there's no need to understand these complicated mixing processes.

The real value of this instruction manual lies in... its ability to be used by others.

For example, for players who are preparing to use intermediate gene potions.

The value of a detailed official instruction manual is self-evident.

or......

Give this instruction manual to Elder Chi and ask him to organize people to study it.

Do what you are capable of.

Lin Mo was aware of this.

His task is to steadily improve and then safely pass the end-of-month assessment.

At the same time, it allows humanity to rapidly increase its strength.

The stronger the human faction, the more likely they are to survive the beast tide five years from now.

With these things on my mind, a feeling of exhaustion crept over me without me even realizing it.

His mind had been in a state of high tension and excitement, and now that he relaxed, his eyelids started to droop.

Lin Mo yawned, slumped onto the bed, and fell asleep without realizing it.

He slept soundly.

But at this moment, the rune tower next to the general store was bustling with activity.

Outside the Rune Tower, players were gathered in layers, their faces showing anticipation, tension, or envy as they stared intently at the exit of the Rune Tower.

"Buzz—!"

With a slight energy fluctuation, the gates of the Rune Tower slowly opened.

A thin young man walked out from inside with somewhat unsteady steps.

He was stunned for a moment, then his face broke into an undisguised ecstasy.

"I did it! I did it!"

He excitedly shouted to the crowd around him, as if he wanted to share his joy with the whole world.

"I have gained the power of the fire runes!"

As he spoke, he awkwardly spread out his palms, trying to concentrate, just like in fantasy novels.

One second, two seconds...

A small cluster of orange-red flames burst into flame with a "poof" in his palm, flickering as if it might go out at any moment.

Even so, this tiny flame instantly ignited the emotions of everyone present.

While others are fighting amongst themselves, you manage to control the fire.

Then you are a god!

Holy crap! 666666!!!

"Is this the power of runes? That's so cool!"

"Damn it, I'm so jealous! Why did I fail every time I went in?"

A chorus of envious exclamations and sighs instantly erupted around them.

Players who also entered the Rune Tower but failed for various reasons were especially envious.

A burly man pushed through the crowd and approached the young man, his face full of eagerness.

"Dude, that's awesome! Share your tips with us!"

"How exactly did you figure it out? What kind of monster materials did you use?"

"And another thing, what posture were you in when you grasped the meaning? Were you facing upwards or upside down?"

Others also gathered around, bombarding him with questions.

"Yeah, yeah, tell me, what's the trick?"

"I used an elite monster's arm as material, wasted half an hour, and still failed."

Faced with the crowd's admiration and inquiries, the young man's excitement slowly faded, replaced by a hint of feigned mystery.

He cleared his throat and held up one finger.

The crowd fell silent, thinking he was about to reveal some earth-shattering secret.

"1 Source Crystal."

The air froze instantly.

A few seconds later, the crowd erupted in chaos.

"Damn! Are you out of your mind? You want money for asking for advice?"

"Yeah, you're really ruthless. With so many of us, if each of us asks you a question, we could bankrupt you!"

"Brother, you can't be too greedy."

Faced with the crowd's outrage, the young man remained calm and instead puffed out his chest with self-righteousness.

"This is called paid knowledge, do you understand?"

"This is valuable experience I gained through luck, why should you get it for free? If you're so capable, go in and try it yourselves!"

These words immediately silenced many people.

The mastery of Rune Towers is not 100% guaranteed.

While the penalty for failure is not fatal, the wasted time, materials, and source crystals are non-refundable.

Just as everyone was haggling with the young man, the scene descended into chaos.

"Buzz—!"

The gates of the Rune Tower have opened once again.

The noisy crowd subconsciously quieted down and turned to look in unison.

A figure slowly emerged from the light.

The moment they saw who it was, the players who recognized him instinctively stepped aside, making way for him.

The person who arrived was none other than one of the Five Elders, Elder Qian.

At this moment, Mr. Qian's face no longer showed his usual irritability and impatience, but instead a deep, almost overflowing surprise and shock.

He ignored the players around him, just looking down at his hands.

Between his fingers, an inconspicuous little pebble was rolling around as he turned his fingers, sometimes floating and sometimes falling.
