Thousands of survivors injected with the Baal Potion charged straight into the mutant legion's camp, stirring up a storm of flesh and blood.
These survivors, transformed into monsters, possessed incredible strength. Most appeared to be only two-star, but after 'transforming', they exhibited prowess comparable to four-star and five-star evolvers. In fact, some four-star individuals, after being injected with the potion, now boasted six-star power.
However, this strength came with significant drawbacks. They had no skills, no weapons, no equipment, no classes, and no lineage...
All they had was their bodies.
Extremely powerful bodies!
It's no wonder Xia Lei had previously stated that even she found them tricky. When Ye Zhongming witnessed their strength firsthand, he had to admit that the strongest among them had physical attributes that could rival his own.
It's important to note that while Ye Zhongming was now a seven-star evolver, his physical capabilities were on par with an eight-star. Many of his skills and equipment enhanced this attribute.
The strongest individual among them had a physique comparable to Ye Zhongming’s, which gives an idea of just how formidable he was.
Yet... Ye Zhongming sighed inwardly. Unfortunately, this was not their inherent strength; rather, it was a result of the potion's catalysis, condensing years of their life energy into a brief explosion of power.
Their lives were destined to shine brightly for a moment before fading away.
Ye Zhongming felt a deep apprehension towards the Baal Potion, even though it was a product of Cloud Summit's own genetic life laboratory.
Indeed, this was something created by Liu Zhenghong.
Ye Zhongming was unsure if Liu Zhenghong had developed such a potion in his previous life, but its appearance this time was purely coincidental.
In fact, it was a byproduct of a failed experiment, originally intended to be discarded, but an unsuspecting researcher analyzed it and was shocked at the discovery that left the usually calm Liu Zhenghong astounded.
She found that this failed byproduct not only failed to solve the problem of rapid metabolism in genetic life cells but also accelerated this defect, allowing the cell energy to explode within a short time. It even produced a microwave effect, eventually resulting in an explosion.
Surprisingly, this potion was very stable...
After discreetly finding an enemy of Cloud Summit to test it, Liu Zhenghong decided to classify this matter and the potion as the highest secret of the genetic life laboratory. Within Cloud Summit, only Liu Zhenghong, the researcher who discovered the potion, and Xia Lei knew about it; even Ye Zhongming learned of it later through Xia Lei.
The four who were in the know understood what would happen if this potion were to spread...
Perhaps it would unleash a disaster comparable to the zombie virus.
The use of this potion this time was entirely due to Cloud Summit being on the brink of destruction; otherwise, it would have been sealed away forever.
The reason it was called the Baal Potion was that Liu Zhenghong felt this potion was akin to a demon...
A low-powered Baal Potion injector was torn apart by several mutant beings, yet he seemed unaffected; his mangled body continued to move. In the next moment, his body fragments exploded, causing those around him to be blown away and creating a deep crater in the ground.
Such power made the assault team feel a chill run down their spines.
Ye Zhongming inwardly lamented that after this battle, the secret of the Baal Potion would surely be exposed. Its overwhelming power meant countless individuals would seek to obtain it, inevitably leading to another bloody storm.
“Stay close, watch your speed, and avoid entering the explosion radius!”
Ye Zhongming led the assault team following the Baal Potion injectors into the mutant legion's territory. At that moment, a series of muffled explosions echoed; the potion's time limit had not yet been reached, and exploding now would undoubtedly lead to someone being killed by the mutant legion.
