"Do you remember the Baal Potion?" Liu Zhenghong said to Ye Zhongming over the communicator.
Ye Zhongming nodded.
This potion was something Liu Zhenghong had developed before, used only in a rare couple of battles during the mid-stage of Cloud Summit. At that time, Cloud Summit was facing life and death, and Xia Lei couldn't care about anything else, injecting this destructive potion, which could significantly enhance combat power in a short time, into some life forms.
The effect was naturally good; those who were injected became very strong. Although they didn't possess any skills, they could unleash terrifying combat power purely with their physical prowess. The most frightening part was that a few minutes later, the life forms injected with the Baal Potion would explode, causing extremely severe damage that far exceeded their original strength.
"The Baal Potion is too crazy, and in later experiments, I found it couldn't be used on high-level evolved life forms. But here, due to your crazy plan, I transferred some of the manufacturing ideas of the Baal Potion," Liu Zhenghong continued.
"I didn't expect that the experiment would have an accident due to certain factors, resulting in the test subjects exploding, and the actual power was quite ordinary."
"But when I checked the data, I felt that the situation could continue, so I persisted with the wrong idea, conducting some experiments. The conclusion I reached was that these test subjects couldn't increase their strength after being injected with this potion, but they would self-explode at the end of their lives, resulting in a huge explosion."
"The lives you provided have a maximum strength of only ninth level. After being injected with this potion, their strength remains the same. However, the explosive attack power is roughly equivalent to a full-force strike from a fuleira at the level of 120,000-130,000, which is about the same as Pao Bai and the white dragon horse. If you need such life forms, let me know."

Watching the roaring explosions not far away, Ye Zhongming recalled the words Liu Zhenghong had said a few days ago.
It was precisely this accidentally created potion that gave Ye Zhongming the courage to set this trap, attempting to take down the peak expert among the two dwarves.
At least for now, it seemed the plan was progressing towards success.
The beastman warriors injected with the potion, which Liu Zhenghong named Type II Baal Potion, were attacking the gathered dwarves one after another.
While a single explosion from these beastmen could cause damage to the dwarves, it was by no means fatal; they didn't even have the ability to break through mechanical battle armor unless they happened to explode in a critical spot.
However, the continuous attacks, even against those wearing level 5 mechanical battle armor, were unbearable.
One by one, the dwarves had their mechanical battle armor destroyed, and then their bodies were blown up as well.
It wasn’t that they weren’t strong or that they couldn’t resist or fight back; it was just that they couldn’t withstand those frenzied attacks.
Anyone would struggle against full-force attacks from adversaries of the same level repeatedly.
In a short period, more than three thousand beastman warriors had appeared, and after all of them exploded, only three dwarves remained alive on their side.
The peak expert Ziqie, along with two strong captains wearing level 6 battle armor.
But these three weren't in good shape either; the mechanical battle armor of the two captains was clearly damaged severely, basically rendered useless, while one of the gun barrels in Ziqie's hand was destroyed, and his armor had significant cracks.
In fact, if it weren't for Ziqie's continuous effort to maneuver using the power of rules, the two captains might not have held on.
At this moment, the look Ziqie directed at Ye Zhongming had turned incredibly fierce.
He said nothing else; whatever he said now would be pointless. Ziqie only wanted to eliminate this person.
