“Where is your biochemical stuff?” Chen Xiaobei asked George using the Dreamcatcher Bell.
“It’s in the safe there. The password is the same as the one before.” George answered in a monotone voice.
Chen Xiaobei went to the safe, opened it and found a few tiny bottles of dark green solutions.
He then walked back to George and asked him how it was used. The answer was simple: one had to just inject it into the body.
Right after that, Chen Xiaobei tacked down a syringe and filled it with the biochemical fluid and injected himself with it.
“Bro Bei! What are you doing?” Yin Wuqiu gasped.
“What the f*ck! Are you insane?”
Zaar could not believe what he had just seen.
“When my body starts to change drastically, give me a drop of that antidote,” Chen Xiaobei instructed as he lay down on one of the operating stables, and fastened metal shackles around himself.
“I understand now!” Yin Wuqiu slapped his thigh. “Bro Bei! Are you trying to use this thing to activate your body’s true potential, and increase your body strength?”
Since Chen Xiaobei had the antidote on hand, all he needed to do was suffer for a little bit, and he would be able to gain the benefits from a research that had went on for more than a decade!
“Yes! My health is still inadequate!”
Chen Xiaobei nodded before he closed his eyes.
His combat power at the moment was 94,300. Using the Primordial Witch King’s Combat Enhancement Training Manual would top it up with an extra 28,290 combat power, turning it into a total of 122,590!
But because his heath was only 116,000, his combat power was limited to 116,000. That was a loss of 6,590 combat power, which was generally quite a substantial loss in general!
Earlier on, Chen Xiaobei had decided to use Xiao’er’s Special Ability to increase his health but he had not found the right Spiritual Item to eat, nor was he able to find the time for a short nap.
With this new biochemical stuff, Chen Xiaobei could increase his health, which at the same time also meant reducing the limit on his combat power. This was at the very top of his list!
Of course, taking this shortcut meant paying a price.
“Arghhh…” The searing pain started hitting hard, and infiltrated every nook and cranny of Chen Xiaobei’s body.
The changes that he saw earlier on the victims of the experiment began to take place on his body. He could feel things trying to grow their way out from the insides of his body, as if his muscles were being torn, and his bones were being crushed. It was really terrifying!
The pain was not something ordinary men could withstand.
Nine out of ten people who were subjected to the experiment would die. Sadly, only half of those died from the side effects of the drugs. The other half died from the excruciating pain alone.
Experiencing it by himself made Chen Xiaobei even more aware how insane this experiment was, and it confirmed that the high officials of the United States military were inhumane! For the sake of realizing their wild ambitions, they were willing to resort to such barbaric acts!
Should an opportunity arise in the form of a conflict, Chen Xiaobei would not mind terminating these high officials!
Nearly 24 hours later, Yin Wuqiu gave Chen Xiaobei the antidote.
Xiangyu soon regained consciousness and his body had fully recovered.
The 20,000 health he gained during the insane bout, instigated by the drug remained in him indefintiely.
When Yin Wuqiu explained everything that had happened, Xiangyu was overjoyed and could not stop praising Chen Xiaobei. He was filled with gratitude.
Another 24 hours later, Chen Xiaobei gently peeled opened. “Bro Yu! You’re fine!”
When Xiangyu saw Chen Xiaobei gaining concipusness, he smiled. “Yes, I’m fine now thanks to you! I almost died this time if not for you! I will repay you for saving me!”
Chen Xiaobei frowned. “What is this, Bro Yu? We are brothers. We’ve stuck with each other through the worst of times. There’s no such thing as repaying, there’s only spirit of loyalty!”
“You’re right! I’m feeling all touchy here!”
Xiangu was also a true man.
“Loyalty is the only thing that we need! Let’s not talk about these irrelevant stuff!”
“Bro Yu, I see you kept yourself busy!” Chen Xiaobei looked around him.
The computers, apparatus and lab equipment were trashed all over the floor. Even George’s head had fallen to the ground.
It was no question that this was all Xiangyu’s doing.
“Hmph! There’s too much evil in this damned place! I can’t leave anything for the next wicked person that comes along! Since I was also bored, I destroyed everything inside and outside!” Xiangyu smiled contentedly.
“Very good! You’ve done well!” Chen Xiaobei grinned. “If you hadn’t done it, that would’ve been the first thing I would have done when I woke up!”
“Great minds think alike!” Xiangyu chuckled. “Oh, right. How much did your health increase by? This really is a blessing in disguise!”
“Let me see…”

[Cultivation: Middle phase of Celestial Cultivation; Lifespan: 70 years; Health: 126,000; Combat power: 94,300]
“Oh, it only increased by 10,000.” Chen Xiaobei said with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
“Oh, why is that? Mine has increased by 20,000!”
“That’s because Bro Bei’s health was already pretty strong to start with! If he wants to increase it by 20,000, he will need a stronger or a more powerful drug!” Yin Wuqiu explained.
It was actually a pretty simple explanation. It was just like playing a game. Chen Xiaobei was at a higher level than Xiangyu. So even though they underwent the same experience, Chen Xiaobei’s would natually have have a smaller increase since its range had expanded.
If Chen Xiaobei gained more experience, he could also have the same increase as Xiangyu.
“Xiaobei, how strong are you now? It feels like you’re so much stronger than I am!” Xiangyu asked.
“To be precise, my combat power has reached 122,590!”
After the 10,000 point increase in his health, the Primordial Witch King’s Combat Enhancement Training Manual would be able to unleash its full potential.
“My god! That is insanely fast! It has only been a few months, and you’re almost twice as strong as I am!” Xiangyu was shocked, but there was also a hint of desolation in his eyes.
Last time, it used to be him who protected Chen Xiaobei. Today, things had taken a turn and it was Chen Xiaobei’s turn to protect Xiangyu.
Even though it should not have been the matter of who protects whom when it came to brothers, Xiangyu used to be a king ajd he would naturally be the one doing the protecting!
“Bro Yu! Don’t feel discouraged!” Chen Xiaobei comforted. “You are a rare prodigy. Environment is the only thing that restricts your growth! Once we’re done here, I’ll send you to the Northern Wilderness Starfield where your cultivation will soar!”
“Great! I’ve wanted to leave earth for so long. It’s only because I have not completed the mission of capturing Hou Sailei! Once I’m done, I will go to the Northern Wilderness Starfield, and immerse myself in cultivating. I will try to catch up with you as soon as possible!” Xiangyu said with determination.
“Speaking of which, what is the mission right now? How did the mission fail? And how were you captured?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
