The outcome of the battle was unexpected.
David had originally hoped that even if their mutated chimpanzee died, the opponent's would also perish, as a stab to the chest was a fatal wound. He anticipated a situation where both sides would suffer loss, resulting in a draw.
However, to his disappointment, when the chimpanzee with two extra limbs stood up, the blood hole in its chest was visibly healing at an alarming rate. In no time, it was unrecognizable and even the previous weakness had vanished, transforming into an intact monster.
The victor was clear.
After announcing that the dark laboratory of Guan Cheng Village had won the first round, the two supervisors began to reveal the potions used by both sides during the competition.
On the Alamos Laboratory side, the potion used was called "Stir."
The function of this potion was to significantly enhance the abilities of mutated life forms at level four and below, allowing them to maintain their increased strength. Essentially, first and second-level mutated life forms could directly upgrade after taking Stir, while those at third and fourth levels would see a significant boost if they had good innate talent.
The downside was that mutated life forms who consumed this potion would experience a drastic reduction in lifespan and could develop heart-related issues, making them prone to sudden death during emotional outbursts.
However, for humans, these concerns were not a priority. Thus, this potion was still considered valuable, particularly for forces like Ten Thousand Beast Manor, which could control a large number of mutated life forms. If utilized well, it could greatly enrich their tactics.
After introducing Alamos Laboratory's Stir, the other side began to present the powder used by the dark laboratory of Guan Cheng Village.
This substance was called "Regeneration Locust Powder." It had two primary functions. The first, which everyone had just witnessed, was the ability to regenerate similar body parts next to the limbs, creating new limbs that were weak and lacked the full functionality of the original limbs. However, the tips were exceptionally sharp, and given the chance, they could pierce the bodies of other life forms to absorb energy for themselves.
The second ability was the regeneration of severed limbs!
As the name implies, if an evolver or mutated life form lost a body part, they could use this powder to regrow it.
As for the side effects, if used for the first function, the newly created part would remain on the body, turning the individual into a monster. Since this new part was very soft, it was easily damaged by attacks, making the pain comparable to losing the original limb.
If utilized for the second function, the side effects were similar: the regenerated limb could take on any form, possibly resembling the original or something entirely different like an elephant trunk or tiger claw.
When it came to value, Regeneration Locust Powder was naturally more valuable than Stir, as the former had no level restrictions and provided hope for evolvers who had lost their limbs.
Taking a gamble on luck could potentially allow someone to regain their abilities, and everyone knew how to choose.
It appeared that the victory of Regeneration Locust Powder was a foregone conclusion.
“Please deliver the formula for Stir,” someone shouted from the national district, immediately receiving support from the crowd, which made the Alamos Laboratory representatives quite uncomfortable.
David returned and spoke a few words with the person in charge. Afterward, that individual took out a pen and began to write. In no time, a formula was handed over.
The representative from Ten Thousand Beast Manor glanced at it, nearly losing his composure upon discovering that the formula was written in English. He immediately questioned it and demanded a rewrite, only to be told that they couldn’t write in Chinese...
“No need to write in Chinese; we can understand it.”
Guan Cheng Village wanted both the formula and a sample bottle. After taking a look, he handed it over to his subordinate for verification. They had previously been senior intellectuals at a medical school and were accustomed to reading medical texts entirely in foreign languages, so English posed no challenge for them.
