Double Harvest! (Please Keep Reading!)

Inside the armored vehicle,

Qin Lang had been staring at the handsome young man for two whole minutes.

Chen Wang frowned. "What are you looking at?"

Qin Lang sighed. "I had just delivered the last person to the designated location when you told me you'd already completed the mission."

Chen Wang nodded.

Qin Lang said, "Most people have to clear three areas to kill twenty Zombies, but you killed enough right from the start."

Chen Wang cut him off. "Just tell me, was it fast or not?"

The bald man paused, then nodded. "Fast!"

Chen Wang raised a brow. "Doesn't that count as completing the mission?"

The bald Qin Lang shook his head. "Of course it counts. The rules aren't set in stone. Besides, you really did kill twenty Zombies—twenty-one, to be exact."

Chen Wang nodded slightly.

The other man's handling of the matter was fairly impartial.

After all, the Great Winter World was full of violence and savagery. These freelancers in particular were like blades, and Qiongqi Mining paid considerable attention to practical results. Suddenly, Qin Lang asked, "According to the fluctuations on the sensor, you just killed a Third Order Zombie. How did you do that?"

Chen Wang said blandly, "Does everyone have to submit a detailed report after completing a mission?"

The bald Qin Lang froze, then said, "Of course not. It's just personal curiosity."

Chen Wang nodded. "Fine."

Then there was nothing more.

A moment later, the bald Qin Lang looked up and found that Chen Wang had no intention of explaining. Smiling, he said, "A Third Order Zombie is worth quite a lot. The merit you earned this time can not only be exchanged for an Evil Spirit, but also for a Stormcaller."

Chen Wang raised a brow. "You can look for me again next time there's work."

Qin Lang smiled. "Alright!"

A young man with such potential and such high efficiency was naturally suited for long-term cooperation.

But after saying that, Chen Wang added inwardly, Whether I'll give you the time of day is another matter.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Wang asked the bald man, "That Third Order Zombie I encountered earlier could use a weapon. Is that normal?"

The bald man, whose face had held a smile moments ago, suddenly turned grave. "What!"

Whether he had been joking or serious before, he had always carried an air of ease. After all, he was a person in charge who had overseen frontline missions for years. But now, his expression had truly become solemn. Chen Wang gestured as he said, "The equipment on that female Zombie I saw earlier was fairly new. She didn't look like she had been dead for long. She carried a blade in her hand, and when she attacked, she had a basic awareness of dodging."

With every word Chen Wang spoke, the bald Qin Lang's face grew more serious. By the time Chen Wang had finished, the bald man responsible for arranging the relic-clearing operation had fallen completely silent.

After a moment, he let out a long breath and slowly said, "Chen Wang, the information you've provided is extremely valuable. Can you give me the location of that female Zombie?"

Chen Wang shook his head. "I can provide the location, but I smashed that woman to pieces."

The bald man: "..."

After returning to the Shelter, Chen Wang completed the handover and immediately exchanged his rewards without hesitation.

Second Order Genetic Potion, Evil Spirit: granted a brief mist-form ability, improved physical fitness, and increased explosive power and agility. Second Order Genetic Potion, Stormcaller: allowed one to control wind and rain, comprehensively improved physical fitness, and increased explosive power and agility.

Chen Wang was already thoroughly familiar with Gene Serum.

He directly injected the Second Order Genetic Potion, Evil Spirit. A violent force erupted from within his body.

Chen Wang could clearly feel that this power was completely different from the other serums he had injected before.

Though it was called Evil Spirit, it did not carry even a trace of cold, sinister aura.

Chen Wang's sensation was crystal clear.

Pain!

Every injection of Gene Serum placed an enormous burden on his body.

It was only that Chen Wang's tolerance had become much higher. As he endured pain after pain, he had actually begun to get used to it.

Once that period passed, Chen Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath.

Though it was only a Second Order Genetic Potion, its enhancement to physical strength was equally effective.

Of course, what he cared about most was that special mist-form ability.

At a thought from Chen Wang, his entire body instantly turned into mist. It was an incredibly strange sensation, as though his flesh had become a cloud of vapor.

Chen Wang sensed it carefully. At present, this state could last about three seconds. After three seconds, the mist would disperse and his physical body would reform.

"Three seconds. That means I can be immune to all physical damage for three seconds."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

The Evil Spirit's effect was truly explosive.

Moreover, according to Gao Yanan's description, this ability should be trigger-based. In other words, once he encountered a sneak attack, his reaction speed would become terrifyingly fast—almost instantaneous.

"Firearms count as physical attacks. This way, I can nullify bullets without using talismans like the Golden Bell Talisman."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

Of course, he still did not fully understand the abilities of this Second Order Genetic Potion, Evil Spirit, and would need to explore them slowly.

Chen Wang carefully examined the Meridians within his body. His internal organs had once again been damaged by the medicinal power. He did not rush to inject the Wind Whisperer next, but instead circulated the Red Cloud Qi Refining Art.

The Red Cloud Qi Refining Art was a cultivation method that focused on nurturing health.

As he sat in meditation and breathed, streams of gentle, pure spiritual energy flowed through his body before finally settling into his Qi Sea.

Immortal cultivators could observe their own bodies from within. He could clearly see which parts of his body had been damaged, then precisely nourish and repair them with spiritual energy. Its effects were far more precise than the restorative medicinal solutions used by the people of the Great Winter World.

Half an hour later, he had completely repaired his injuries. Taking a deep breath, he picked up the other vial and plunged it into his sturdy arm. From initially hurting so badly that he wanted to die, to gradually growing accustomed to the pain, Chen Wang thought to himself, Could it be that I've become a little perverted too?

Having just endured one round of pain, this round seemed somewhat lighter. Chen Wang rose to his feet, his body crackling and popping. With a light clench of his fist, he sensed immense strength contained within his muscles. Injecting two Second Order Genetic Potions in succession had rapidly stacked improvements onto his physical fitness. With a slight thought, a breeze swept in from around him. The wind was not strong for now, but it was extremely distinct. Then, a fine drizzle actually began to fall above his head.

"Commanding wind and summoning rain—this Gene Serum is really not bad."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

He planned to familiarize himself with the abilities of these two serums before returning to the immortal cultivation world. The spiritual energy in this world was far too thin; it was unsuitable for cultivation.
