"I know, of course. I also know that there hasn't been a single successful case of Secondary Mutation in all of society." Yang Bo spoke as he scrubbed Ning Xue's back.
Secondary Mutation was an enormous problem, mainly because of two uncertainties. The first was the user's hidden attributes. Most Superpower Users did not possess only one attribute; they also had other latent attributes.
The second was the attributes of the Gene Serum. The side effects of Gene Serum came from its uncertain ingredients. Although the quantities involved were already minuscule, the terrifying chain reactions caused by even tiny amounts of energy could lead to unknown effects.
That was why people had researched Secondary Mutation and conducted many experiments. After all, some people were capable of anything in the name of research.
But to this day, no one had ever declared success. Gradually, no one continued researching it either, because even if one test subject succeeded—
What about other users? Their attributes definitely would not be identical to those of the test subject.
Even with massive investment, massive research, and procedures based on experimental results, the chance of success was only fifty percent.
That fifty percent was an illusion. In reality, it either succeeded or failed—success meant one hundred percent, failure meant zero. But the investment was too great and the returns too low, so no one was willing to keep funding the research.
Even building a model would not allow anyone to calculate it, because every person's talents and attributes differed. A model could not account for that.
Ning Xue grew even more suspicious upon hearing this, but since Bart was saying it, there had to be more to come.
"Do you know why I'm so strong? I wasn't this strong before. It was because I went out adventuring
