Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Zombie Mutation Potion (Blue)

The underground laboratory of the villa.

Since moving here, Zi Liyuan had only been here twice.

In the alchemy lab, various bottles and jars were scattered all over, along with many restricted items.

For example, on one of the experiment tables, there was a dissected body of a certain creature torn to pieces, next to a white-haired, baby-faced person holding dissection tools?

Zi Liyuan’s eyelid twitched slightly, especially at the sight of that expressionless face, which gave him a chill down his spine.

My supreme-ruler, if he ever offended her, would he one day find himself strapped to an experiment table?

Despite looking like a two-dimensional beauty, why does she appear so ferocious?

“Li Yuan, you’re here; I was just about to find you. Come quickly, Runer has successfully created the Zombie Evolution Potion!”

Fan Binger glanced indifferently at Zi Liyuan and ignored him, her knife continuing to slice through the body of a certain creature on the experiment table.

Fan Yuer came out of another small room and ran over to him, dragging him into another workshop.

“Look, this is the latest potion that our sisters have improved on and optimized, and it will definitely increase your strength greatly.”

In the center of the workshop was a large workbench where Fan Runer and Fan Qinger were fussing with some concoction bottles and jars, while on the left side of the bench were five palm-sized dark green potions.

[Zombie Mutation Potion (Blue): Enhances the strength of zombies, all attributes +20%, with a 1% chance of causing a rare variant progression. (Note: Each zombie can only use one bottle, with the highest progression to a rare variant template.)]

A potion that can increase all attributes by 20% is indeed not bad, but zombies themselves aren’t that strong to begin with, and even among their peers, they are at the bottom, so a 20% boost to all attributes is just so-so.

What Zi Liyuan was more interested in, however, was the last piece of information about the 1% chance of template mutation progression.

Death-class professions can cultivate undead creatures, and it is actually quite simple for a regular zombie template to evolve into an elite template with proper nurturing.

With this potion, there was a slim hope of elite zombies mutating into rare zombies.

For Zi Liyuan, wasn’t this faint hope his destiny?

“Excellent, excellent, this is really good stuff. You’ve worked hard. How many bottles do we have now?”

“This potion is complicated to make and we can’t mass-produce it for now; we have only made 25 bottles.”

“No problem, let’s start using it. Oh, and Yuer, you four sisters go get the equipment from Xiao Yurou and head to the Dungeon Home to grind to LV40 and get ready for the Second Order Hero class change quest.”

With Type II robots around, the class change quest for life profession players would be unimaginably easy.

Later, Zi Liyuan could buy Skill Fusion Mutation Scrolls from them.

…

The next day, Zi Liyuan came to the Dungeon Home early in the morning again.

Upon seeing him arrive, Wang Fu came over with a plump boy.

“Xiao Yuan, this is my no-account son, Wang Tie.”

Wang Fu grasped his son’s nape as he presented Wang Tie to him, then looked sternly at his own child.

“Aren’t you going to greet him?”

With a low growl and a slap to the back of the head, Wang Fu made it sound crisp.

“Brother Zi, hello…”

The plump boy managed a smile uglier than crying.

“Hey there, little bro…”

Finding it a bit awkward yet not wanting to be rude, Zi Liyuan gave a reply, having figured out just how much Wang Tie feared his old man.

“Dear nephew, could you please straighten out this stinky brat for me? I need to take care of some things, Uncle Wang here. Someone will bring you your earnings from yesterday in the afternoon.”

After patting Zi Liyuan’s shoulder, Wang Fu said with a harmonious smile on his face, but as soon as he turned to look at his own son, his expression collapsed, sending a murderous glare unhidden straight into Wang Tie’s heart.

“Brother Zi, could I ask you a favor?”

As soon as his father left, Wang Tie’s tense nerves instantly relaxed, and he moved closer to Zi Liyuan to whisper.

“Are you that scared of Uncle Wang?”

“Ah, it’s a long story. At home, the old man is an absolute authority; his word is law, and whoever dares to object gets beaten to a pulp. Last month, my third brother, Wang Tong, just got his legs broken for washing his feet at a clubhouse. Probably can’t think about going there again for a couple more months.”

With a sigh, Wang Tie showed a look of utter despair.

“Your dad seems quite amiable. He’s that violent at home?”

Having interacted a few times, Zi Liyuan felt that Wang Fu was quite gentle with people.

“Let’s not talk about it anymore; more words would be nothing but tears. Brother Zi, please do me a favor. If my dad asks about my strength, please put in a good word for me.”

The fear of their father’s beatings was deeply ingrained in the hearts of the four brothers, and he certainly did not want to be punished by his father after going back.

“Let’s go, let’s see your strength first, then I can advise you on how to improve.”

If he wanted to make sure this guy passed Dragon Academy’s assessment successfully, as a Beast Tamer, really all he needed was to get a powerful high-quality summoned beast.

“No problem, Brother Zi. Let’s head to the training room at Copy Home. Follow me.”

Wang Tie took Zi Liyuan up on an employee elevator, then straight to the top floor into a combat training room.

Wang Tie VS Zi Liyuan

At the start, he summoned ten rare-template beasts, all uniformly at level LV35, with a variety of types: flying in the sky, walking on the ground, burrowing underground, you name it.

He then summoned two LV35 hero Demon Wolves – that’s right, the two eggs that Zi Liyuan had given to his dad Wang Fu yesterday.

He hadn’t expected that in just one night, they had not only hatched but also leveled up to LV35.

“Brother Zi, be careful.”

Under the leadership of the two Demon Wolves, the other ten beasts charged forward all at once, unleashing a barrage of ranged abilities inherent to their species.

There was a 25 level difference between them, and since Zi Liyuan summoned “Bone Shield” for protection, the beasts’ abilities didn’t even break through his defense.

However, he noticed that the creatures summoned by the Beast Tamer were different from the Skeletons he summoned.

The Beast Tamer had various skills to boost the state of his beasts, but it seemed the skills couldn’t be stacked; for example, if he applied a speed boost, wanting to switch to increase damage would override the previous effect.

To test the strength of these beasts, Zi Liyuan waved his Magic Wand and immediately summoned a large number of armored Skeleton Warriors.

The appearance of 1600 Skeletons immediately encircled the 12 beasts, and the ranks of Skeletons, shields in hand, completely blocked them inside the Skeleton Sea.

“shit! So many Elite Skeletons, there’s no point in fighting now!”

His own beasts were directly blocked by shield after shield, with no room to even move, severely restricted and utterly unable to fight.

Wang Tie immediately surrendered and admitted defeat.
