……
Half an hour later, Yu Ze led the researchers from the Genetic Modification Department to log into the game.
Although they were mentally prepared, Yu Ze and other researchers were shocked by the flawless real scene after entering the game.
However, they did not directly explore outside. Instead, they chose to communicate with the guide to understand the preliminary background and gameplay mode of the world.
After a long time, Yu Ze, who understood the general situation, decided to start an experimental plan for genetic modification.
But before that, they first need to solve the problem of game currency.
Without sacrificial power, it is difficult to move forward.
As for purchasing sacrificial power with cash, this method does not seem feasible.
Lao Yang from the weapons research and development department said that the sacrifice power output in this game is very small, but the gameplay that requires consumption is very large, and the number of players who spend money is much greater than the number of players who move bricks.
This makes it very difficult to acquire sacrificial power.
The sacrificial power produced by many professional brick-moving teams is basically reserved in advance by major guilds and is not sold to the public at all.
Faced with this problem, Yu Ze chose to seek help from his old friends.
Calling up the function panel, he added Lao Yang's in-game name "Big Killer" as a friend.
Not long after, a notification that the friend application was approved sounded.
Genetic Front: Lao Yang, lend me some sacrifices. It’s hard to move forward without money.
Yang Tianxuan, who learned in advance that his old friend led the genetic department to enter the game, seemed a little helpless:
Big killer: We also lack sacrificial power. How can we give you more sacrificial power? (Explorer confused.jpg)
Genetic Front: Stop talking nonsense, support me first, and I will pay you back when I have enough sacrifice power.
Big killer: no money.
Genetic Front: You will definitely need the gene-enhancing potion we developed in the later stage. After all, you also have to improve your physical fitness level, right?
Big Killer: So what?
Genetic Front: From now on, I will sell you gene-enhancing potions at cost. Stop talking nonsense and give me 5,000 sacrificial power points first.
Big Killer: I agree to selling my genetic enhancement potion at cost price, but if you want 5,000 points of sacrificial power, you are thinking nonsense. I don’t have so much sacrificial power.
Genetic Front: How much is left in your body?
Big killer: Only 4,200 points, Xiaoye still has more than 16,000 points, everything is rich, and other sacrifices are spent on buying materials.
Genetic Front: Give me all your sacrificial power, hurry up.
Big Killer: Okay, I’ll transfer it to you now, remember to pay it back.
……
After hanging up the connection, a prompt sounded in Yu Ze's mind.
[Challenger Tips: Obtain the player’s “big killer” transfer power: 4,000 points. 】
With the sacrificial power, Yu Ze decisively called out the star pulse strengthening interface.
After spending 500 points of sacrificial power to open the second star vein, he purchased an extracted life soul worth 1,000 points of sacrificial power and embedded it in the second life soul slot.
Then the exchange began to purchase spiritual plants in bulk.
Diamond Vine, Moonflower Grass, Blood Lotus, Phantom Leaf... After completing the purchase, Yu Ze only had 823 points of sacrificial power left.
Under the expectant eyes of all his subordinates, Yu Ze took out a moonflower grass from his space bag, then switched to the extraction form, transforming into a half-meter-high emerald green plant.
The extraction characteristic ability was released, and the moonflower grass wrapped by Yu Ze's branches turned yellow and withered at a speed visible to the naked eye. The plant essence was continuously extracted like bubbles, and gathered into an expanding bubble above.
In the end, the Moonflower Grass was completely sucked dry, leaving only a pile of black powder.
Yu Ze also had a ball of extracted essence glowing green in his hand.
Eyes focus, analytical information emerges:
【Moonflower Grass Essence】
Spiritual Plant Level: 2
Item introduction: The essence energy purified from the level 2 spiritual plant Moonflower Grass can be used for food, refining medicine, and other functions.
……
Switching back to human form, Yu Ze put the essence of moonflower grass on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
Immediately a strong medicinal aroma filled the nose.
Yu Ze was shocked by the specific effects of the extraction.
The steps they took to extract the essence of spiritual plants in the laboratory were cumbersome, requiring a total of 10 steps to purify and purify the spiritual plants into essence.
And each spiritual plant extracts and purifies in a different way.
But in this game, this step has been omitted to the extreme, and it can be done in just one step
Although this technology cannot bring back reality, with the help of extraction properties, the efficiency of subsequent genetic modification experiments can be greatly improved.
Now that the step of extracting plant essence has been completed, you can try to make gene seeds.
The so-called gene seed is a special organ cultivated with active energy particles in spiritual plants.
After entering the human body through swallowing, it will absorb the energy of blood and flesh to grow rapidly, release energy in the subject's body, and affect, regulate and control the body's metabolic functions. In this process, the human body will reject the integration of gene seeds, and in severe cases will lead to The subject's genes collapsed and died.
If successful, the gene seed will be completely integrated into the subject's body and become the power source to strengthen the body.
This technology has been developed for more than a hundred years, but it has never been able to solve the problem of excessive mortality.
But in the game Monster World, Yu Ze doesn't need to worry about this problem.
Spending 100 sacrificial points to buy a bottle of intermediate mental repair potion, he opened the eagle-headed demon's perception perspective.
Immediately, the microscopic structure of the moonflower essence appeared in front of my eyes after magnification. When my consciousness was exposed, it was like a scalpel.
By modifying the structural path of plant essence, it becomes a special structure suitable for the human body.
It is equivalent to creating a program for plant essence to release energy, gradually releasing spiritual particles to adhere to flesh, bones, and meridians through the path engraved by consciousness, so as to achieve the purpose of gradually transforming the body.
If there is no engraved path, the spiritual particles implanted in the body will explode instantly, and the release of energy particles will travel throughout the body uncontrollably.
The body of an ordinary person simply cannot withstand the force raging inside the body.
Without the support of supporting experimental equipment, the inscription process was difficult for Yu Ze.
Although the external perception ability can see the microscopic perspective of the spiritual plant essence, there is no mechanical arm to assist the control. It was his first time to try to change the path using the external consciousness method, and the process of controlling the wandering consciousness seemed very clumsy.
Snap!
With a clear sound, the main structure of the moonflower essence in his hand was destroyed by the inscription knife, turning into green energy particles and dissipating.
The first attempt ended in failure.
But Yu Ze did not give up and tried again decisively.
After switching to the extraction form, he took out the Blood Lotus from his space bag and extracted a ball of Blood Lotus essence in the same way.
From a microscopic perspective, the interior of the Blood Lotus shows a complex combination of light point structures, which is completely different from the structure of the Moonflower Grass Essence. It is necessary to change the new spiritual particle release path.
But this attempt still ended in failure.
After experiencing many subsequent failures, Yu Ze realized a problem.
The characteristics of the eagle-headed demon can help him open up a microscopic perspective, and even change the path of the spiritual plant essence bit by bit through his outward consciousness.
However, the level 1 eagle-headed demon's ability to control the extension of consciousness is far from enough.
He needs to increase the level of the Eagle-headed Demon Soul and strengthen his mental power and consciousness.
"Let's go out of Novice Village and upgrade."
After his initial attempt failed, Yu Ze chose to improve his strength first and then consider genetic modification experiments.
This process can also help him accumulate the sacrificial power needed for subsequent experiments.
Once he has enough sacrificial power reserves, he can consider not going out hunting anymore and obtain sacrificial power benefits by selling gene seeds.
……
Three days later.
With the help of the Doomsday Technology Guild, Yu Ze and his team members reached level 8 by hunting monsters.
Yu Ze, who was resurrected in Dizhong Village, chose to try the production of gene seeds again.
The level 8 eagle-headed demon has increased several times in terms of mental strength, mental recovery speed, and consciousness intensity.
This gave Yu Ze the confidence to try again.
The experiment went surprisingly smoothly. He spent an hour reconstructing the internal structure of the spiritual plant and planning a release path for the spiritual particles. He successfully produced the first genetically modified seed.
After structural reorganization, the seeds are golden-red in shape and about the size of a thumb.
Trying to analyze and read, relevant information appeared in Yu Ze's mind.
[Spiritual Seed] Prop quality: Normal level 3.
Item introduction: A personalized power-up item produced by the player's "Gene Front". It is engraved with the essence of Moonflower Grass and the Essence of Konggu Grass. If swallowed, the spiritual particle strengthening state will last for 1 hour. After the strengthening process is completed, you will gain body-building experience. Bonus, due to poor technique, it will cause continuous damage to the body after consumption.
……
Seeing the "technical incompetence" in the analysis introduction, Yu Ze didn't feel embarrassed.
After looking at the solidified strengthening seeds in his hand, he decided to try the results himself.
Throw the spiritual seeds into your mouth and swallow them directly.
After a brief silence, veins popped out on Yu Ze's face, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The pain feedback has been reduced to the lowest 10%, but the intense pain still made Yu Ze wail and roll on the ground.
At the same time, game prompts kept ringing in his mind:
[Challenger Tips: Obtain spiritual seeds to strengthen and transform, and gain +3 body training experience. 】
[Challenger’s Tip: The body has suffered spiritual impact and sustained damage. 】
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
If this trend continues, he will die before the strengthening is completed.
Holding back the severe pain, Yu Ze decisively called up the mall interface to buy a bottle of healing potion, unscrewed the cap and poured it into his mouth.
Suddenly the two forces in the body began to pull together to destroy and repair.
During this period, Yu Ze almost fainted from the pain several times, but he still managed to survive with his strong willpower.
At the end of the hour-long torture, Yu Ze drank a total of 9 bottles of healing potion priced at 10 sacrificial power, and then he could barely withstand the damage caused by the spiritual seeds to his body.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and called up the attribute panel.
【Challenger Name: Genetic Front】
Main form: human
Forging level: 0 (318/10000)
Star Vein Mosaic (Level: 2):
Inlay No. 1: Eagle-headed Demon Level 8 (Characteristic: Roar of Resentment)
Mosaic position No. 2: Extraction Level 1 (Characteristic: Extraction)
Main form bonus: all attributes +2.3 (not reaching level 1 of forging, no additional attributes inherited)
……
During this transformation, he gained 318 points of forging experience.
At the same time, the physical fitness enhancement effect of +2.3 is obtained for all attributes in human form.
But Yu Ze was not satisfied with this result.
The materials used for this enhancement are level 2 spiritual plant empty grain grass and level 1 spiritual plant moonflower grass purchased in the mall. The combined price is 235 points of sacrifice. In addition, 9 bottles of primary healing potions were consumed during the enhancement process. The total cost is 325 sacrificial power.
But the physical training experience gained from strengthening is 318.
No matter how you calculate it, he has lost 17 points of sacrificial power.
If this gene seed is taken out, no player will be willing to buy it. It would be more convenient to directly consume the sacrifice power to increase the body forging experience.
Without a price advantage, there is no market for gene seeds.
Yu Ze realized that he must find a way to regulate the release path of gene seeds and reduce the physical damage caused by strengthening.
But the problem is that the arrangement and structure of the spiritual particles inside each spiritual plant essence is different. Different spiritual plants need to be engraved with different release paths. It is even more expensive to fuse the two spiritual plant essences to achieve the effect of 1+1 greater than 2. Spend a lot of time researching permutations and combinations.
This issue is difficult for Zeton.
Other problems can be solved, but he can't find a solution to the sacrificial power problem.
Without the support of sacrifice, subsequent research cannot be carried out at all.
He must produce a batch of cost-effective genetic seeds as soon as possible and form a positive cycle of income by selling these seeds.
When asked by his subordinates, Yu Ze did not answer, but chose to consume the remaining sacrificial power and start research and testing again.
In this attempt, he changed the direction of the engraved path.
……
Two days later.
A post on the forum shot up to the trending list in a short period of time.
[Who the hell developed this thing that kills a thousand knives? I asked who it was. Don’t let me catch you. Is this something that can be made by a human being? 】
Posted by: Happy Chicken Little.

In addition to making complaints, posting this post also serves as a reminder to everyone.
Never buy "gene seeds," a custom product recently launched by the trading house. I have been punished for taking advantage of it.
The specific situation is this.
I recently hoarded a batch of sacrificial power, intending to use it to improve my body-building level first, and thinking about hunting in the main form in the future.
In order to save the cost of improving my physical training experience, I would often go to trading shops to pick up missing items, specifically choosing those spiritual plants that are cheaper than the cost to eat.
As a result, when I visited the trading shop this morning, I discovered that there was a special product "Gene Seed" in the custom product area.
The product introduction shows that eating it can improve the level of physical training, but the body will be damaged during the strengthening process. I thought about what I am afraid of damage. Even if my hands and feet are broken, I can be reborn through resurrection.
After asking for guidance, I learned that I could indeed gain more benefits than the cost of physical training experience, so I spent 380 sacrificial points to buy one.
This decision made me regret it so much that my intestines turned green.
When I first ate it, I didn’t take it seriously. I was still thinking about going hunting with the group later.
But the reinforcement feedback that followed taught me a lesson.
How can I describe it? It was like a psychic bomb exploding inside my body, or like thousands of fine needles piercing an inch of my skin at the same time. The words "thousands of ants eating my heart" were visualized in my mind, and I felt pain. It almost made me suffocate, and my body was twitching uncontrollably.
During this period, you can clearly feel something moving inside your body, leaving a persistent burning sensation wherever it passes.
It hurt so much that I almost thought I was going to see my grandfather. During this period, my muscles all over my body were spasming and I felt like my consciousness was about to blur.
This hour was as long as a century, during which I thought about death.
But thinking that the expenditure of more than 300 sacrificial power points was wasted like this, I couldn't accept it. I persisted for more than 10 minutes, and there was no less than 40 minutes left, so I chose to drink the healing potion to hard-top.
By the end of the intensive period, I was almost exhausted.
Guess what?
Here are the statistics (attached: screenshot).
Strengthening brought me 534 points of physical training experience bonus, and the cost of purchasing the genetic potion was 380 sacrificial power. Adding the expenditure of 15 bottles of healing potion, the total cost was 530 sacrificial power.
I was tortured in pain for an hour, and I earned 4 sacrificial power points.
Give me a few hundred more points of training experience, so I'll tolerate it, just treat it as a dumb loss, but this is 4 points of gain, who can tolerate it?
Do you know how I felt after reading the statistics? It's almost ruined. The cost price + 4 benefits, I asked which lunatic made it. Have you tried it yourself?
You really have the courage to put this product on the shelves. Who the hell would endure 1 hour of painful torture just for the benefit of 4 sacrificial power points...
The above is absolutely true.
One last thing, you bastard who makes potions, don’t let me catch you!
……
Magic Bald Head: Damn it, gene seed? Isn't this the key technology for making super genetic warriors in the real world? How come it appears in the game? The player who made this is definitely a super boss in the real world. How can ordinary people have access to this kind of technology? So what exactly is in the game? How many big guys have been mixed in?
Dark night is coming: It makes me laugh. There are really more and more talents emerging recently. There was the Arms Dealers Guild in the front, and now there is a desperate pharmacist secretly. The most important thing is that this desperate pharmacist player dares to Selling immature technology for money is too cruel. Fortunately, the poster tried it in advance, otherwise I might have been tricked out of curiosity.
Genetic Front: I think there will definitely be a series of problems in the early stages of the development of new genres in the game. Everyone should support it with an inclusive attitude. When this technology matures, all players will benefit. It may be that the team researching gene seeds is too short of sacrifice. , that’s why I chose to put genetic medicine on the shelves to withdraw funds. The poster’s performance is a bit radical. They are all brothers in the same camp. The pain you endure is likely to be the advancement of new technologies.
Is this a beaver? Reply to the Genetic Front: Seeing that you have explained so much, is there a possibility that you sold this gene seed (Qi Die Contempt.jpg)
Gene Front replied to this beaver: Don’t talk nonsense, I just have genes in my name, and I don’t know how to make gene seeds at all.
Gamer: Hahaha, one hour of painful torture in exchange for 4 points of sacrificial power. It seems that the brother who sells this potion is really short of money, otherwise I can’t think of what kind of brain circuit can allow him to do this. It's unreasonable to wait for this, but I'm looking forward to the upgrade of gene seed technology. The cost of increasing body training experience is too high, I hope the boss can bring the price down.
……
Looking through the forum comments, Yu Ze felt embarrassed.
If it weren't for the purpose of preparing funds for the next technological upgrade, he would not sell the gene seeds.
Now that things were brewing, he decisively removed the remaining three gene seeds that were on consignment at the trading house.
These three seeds are all made from level 2 spiritual plants, and the cost price is more than 350 points of sacrificial power.
This post has been pinned to the top of the homepage, and the remaining three gene seeds will definitely not be sold.
But he couldn't bear to waste it like this.
Thinking of this, he turned to look at the team members who were fighting fiercely with monsters not far away.
"Let me tell you something, the remaining three gene seeds may not be sold, or we can use them ourselves."
After hearing Yu Ze's speech on the voice channel, the expressions of the team members became very exciting, and they responded aloud on the voice channel, showing humility to each other, and the atmosphere was peaceful.
