In fact, Chen Mo knew that this was Chen Weiguo's way of showing filial piety to his father. He would never talk back or argue with the old man. What did it matter if the old man hit him a few times or scolded him a few times? As long as he was in a good mood, that was fine.

"Father, how are you feeling now?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingde remembered to check his body. After a few casual movements, Chen Jingde felt as if he had returned to his youth, full of vitality—no, even more energetic than when he was young. He seemed to have inexhaustible energy. Remembering the miraculous effects Chen Mo had mentioned, Chen Jingde couldn't help but lift his shirt to examine his body. He found that his skin was smooth and even, and all the scars left from his previous battles had disappeared without a trace.

Recalling Chen Mo's earlier statement that he had been seriously injured in a car accident, suffering brain damage and needing a ventilator to breathe, yet now he felt nothing at all and was in even better condition than during his peak years, Chen Jingde truly understood the miraculous power of the medicine Chen Mo had mentioned.

However, since he hadn't witnessed the miraculous changes that had occurred to him before, he still wanted to experience it firsthand.

So he gave the instructions to Chen Weiguo.

"Go get me a knife, I want to try it myself!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Weiguo quickly intervened.

"No, Dad, it hurts so much. We both saw it just now. In just a short while, all the wounds on your body disappeared. You don't need to try anymore."

Chen Jingde glared at Chen Weiguo and reprimanded him impatiently.

"Just go get it when I tell you to, stop nagging! And you're even trying to tell your old man what to do!"

Chen Weiguo shrank back, afraid that Chen Jingde would slap him again. Just as he was hesitating whether to risk being beaten and try to persuade him again, Chen Mo spoke up.

"No need to trouble yourself, I have some here."

As Chen Mo spoke, he took out a military knife from his spatial storage and handed it to Chen Jingde. It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with the Adamantium throwing knives, but rather that the Throwing Knife was too sharp, and Chen Mo was afraid that the old man might accidentally cut off his entire palm.

Although they didn't see how Chen Mo pulled out the military knife, the others just assumed it was kung fu. Chen Weiguo glared at Chen Mo but didn't say anything.

Chen Jingde took the military knife with his right hand, raised his left palm, and without blinking, made a cut on his own palm, from which a trickle of blood immediately flowed out.

However, Chen Jingde didn't even frown, and simply spread his palms out in front of him. Chen Weiguo and Zhang Huilan couldn't help but lean their heads closer when they saw this.

Although they had just witnessed Chen Jingde's old wound disappear, they were also curious about how the newly cut wound would heal.

The wound Chen Jingde made wasn't very deep, only about half a centimeter long, but it stretched across the width of his entire palm. The skin and flesh were slightly open, and bright red blood slowly oozed out from the wound, but much slower than Chen Jingde remembered, and it quickly stopped completely. Not much blood flowed out in total.

Under the watchful eyes of the three, the long wound slowly began to move. The slightly separated skin and flesh gradually closed up towards the center. The whole process lasted for several minutes. When the changes in the wound completely stopped, the palm that had been cut by the military knife had completely recovered and there was no trace of injury left.

Having witnessed the healing process of that wound firsthand, both Chen Jingde, who was seeing it for the first time, and Chen Weiguo wife, who were seeing it for the second time, were amazed. It was truly incredible!

Now, Chen Jingde truly realized the power of this medicine. He once again solemnly instructed Chen Weiguo and the other man to keep Chen Mo's secret, and then turned to ask Chen Mo.

"Xiao Mo, do you have any more of that potion you used on me? Give your parents a couple of shots too, so I won't hold back when I beat him up next time!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Weiguo didn't know whether to be touched or angry. He was angry because the old man was thinking of him when something good happened, but he was also touched because the old man's reason was that he could beat him up without restraint. This left him quite conflicted, and he didn't know whether he should also get the injection.

You're really my father!

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo immediately took out two vials of X-Gene Serum from his spatial storage.

"We've already prepared for this. After you've been injected with this serum, you won't have to worry about getting injured anymore."

Immediately, Chen Mo injected his parents with the serum to enhance their self-healing abilities. Although the enhancement was only at level one, which was similar to Logan's self-healing speed when he first awakened his abilities, ordinary non-direct fatal injuries were no longer enough to threaten the lives of the three of them.

However, similarly, if vital organs such as the heart and brain are severely damaged, the body cells will die before the self-healing ability can fully repair them, and they will not be able to survive. Therefore, Chen Mo's enhancement of the three is not over. At the very least, he wants to enable the three to survive any accident, even if they encounter a more serious car accident than before, or even a vicious event such as shooting or explosion, they can survive An Ran.

To upgrade his mutant ability level, Chen Mo has two methods. The simplest method is to inject the Improved Super Soldier Serum.

Although the process was somewhat painful, it was still within the range of what most people could bear, and there was no danger. Among the three, Chen Jingde and his son Chen Weiguo had both served in the military, so their willpower was not a problem. Although Zhang Huilan was just an ordinary woman, the pain of childbirth was much greater than that of the Improved Serum, so it was believed that she could completely bear it.

However, the only problem is that the enhancement of the Improved Super Soldier Serum has a "side effect".

While it won't cause drastic changes to a person's physique and appearance like the original serum or Enhanced Serum, it will still make a person look much younger and more agile.

The older the person, the more obvious the changes after being enhanced. For example, Agent Carter did not change much after being enhanced, while Eddie Sr. and Colonel Phillips appeared to be more than ten years younger.

However, Chen Mo's parents are not very old, only in their fifties, and after the enhancement, they will be in their forties. It is not particularly obvious. Many middle-aged people look very young, and there are even mothers and daughters who look like sisters. Chen Jingde's change may be more obvious.

He is already over eighty years old. If he receives the Improved Super Soldier Serum enhancement, his appearance should return to that of someone in his sixties.

Fortunately, Chen Jingde was originally in good health and looked to be only in his seventies. In addition, he had been in a coma for several months and no one had seen him much, so it was not too surprising that he looked ten years younger now.
