The next day, at noon.

Giant Beast Kingdom.

A man and a beast faced off.

The person is Kevin, of course.

The beast was a wolf-shaped monster, nine meters tall.

Unlike other wolf-like monsters, this monster has tentacles growing from its shoulders.

These tentacles weren't some disgusting creature made of flesh and blood, but rather something with skeletal segments, like whips, with bone spurs at the tips.

Therefore, even the relatively small Bone-Whip Giant Wolf, which is only nine meters tall, ranks in the middle in terms of strength in the Giant Beast Kingdom.

He is considered one of the few contestants in the Giant Beast Kingdom whose size and strength are equal.

This time, quite a few people had come to the surrounding area.

King, Biscuit, Melusina, Kurapika, and others arrived, forming a circle around them.

This time is different, after all; Kevin created a new potion last night.

Today is the day he will use the potion.

According to Kevin, this New Potion is A-Rank drug, highly relevant to combat.

Therefore, I chose to come to the Giant Beast Kingdom to find an opponent.

This allows for a better experience of the changes brought about by the potion, and through combat, the effects of the potion can be better experienced and remembered by the body.

"Hey, really? He's actually planning to rely solely on physical strength?"

Jin, who was watching from afar, saw Kevin's current state and immediately asked.

At this moment, Kevin had already drawn the defensive energy from his body back into his body.

In other words, Kevin now has to rely on pure physical talent to fight.

"Absolutely not."

When the Qi is drawn into the body, the body's surface is no longer protected by Qi, making it extremely dangerous.

In Jin's view, this move was too risky.

It's important to know that among most Nen ability...

Putting oneself or others into a desperate situation requires extremely strict Restriction.

Because this represents absolute weakness.

Biscuit listened to the words coming from the Chimera Ant in her hand, her expression serious as she stared ahead and said, "For Kevin right now, if he doesn't restrain himself like this, then this battle has no meaning."

Since Kevin broke through his physical limits, Kevin hasn't really had a chance to properly experience his current strength purely through his physical body.

Furthermore, in the Giant Beast Kingdom, a million units of mental energy already possesses absolute suppressive power.

Add to that the power of Mental Image.

We are invincible here.

Therefore, this new medicine may not necessarily be used effectively.

Then limit yourself and fight with your bare body.

The new medicine happens to be a pure blessing to the body.

"I thought they called me over just to observe and record data, but it seems I need to be more careful."

97

The golden voice that came through the Ant Language became slightly serious, no longer as lazy as before.

This situation means Kevin might get injured or be defeated.

At that point, Kim and his team would have to immediately go up and take over for the other side.

Although the possibility is low, it's not impossible.

Meanwhile, in the center of the arena, surrounded by the crowd.

The Bone-Whip Giant Wolf stared at Kevin with obvious wariness in its eyes.

They did not look down on the other party because of their small size.

These giant beasts are not without intelligence, they just lack wisdom.

Kevin and his team have been operating in the Giant Beast Kingdom for almost a year now.

These behemoths were naturally aware that a group of creatures, extremely small in size but far more powerful than themselves, had appeared in this area.

At that moment, a metallic flying object appeared next to Kevin.

"What is that?"

Kurapika asked curiously, as he had never seen him before.

"Kevin's Nen ability is that Syringe."

Melusina's voice came from among the Ant Language, providing an explanation for everyone.

"So even that Nen ability has been enhanced and changed?" Biscuit asked.

"Of course, a million is comprehensive."

"Okay, if that's the case, I'm even more interested."

Jin's voice also came from inside.

The crowd watched as the Syringe flew into the air; its size had changed compared to before.

It looks like a flying machine with flapping wings, but it's only the size of a palm.

"Modern Syringe can fly on their own at extremely high speeds, and up to ten can be produced in total, with the medication stored in advance."

Melusina then introduced herself to everyone.

The fundamental change in this Nen ability is that it provides a better support function.

During battles, because there was only one Syringe, Kevin generally only used it on himself.

The medicine is only injected into others at the end of the battle to enhance the treatment effect.

Therefore, this information about Nen ability must be fully shared with teammates.

A Syringe was inserted into Kevin's shoulder like a mosquito bite; liquid was injected.

The Syringe disappeared after the injection was completed.

Kevin took a deep breath.

It has entered a state of complete "absolute".

Of course, this is something he chose to enter on his own initiative, so if he really encounters danger, he can release his Nen Aura at any time.

The reason why it is dangerous is that sometimes, due to the disappearance of Nen Aura, even the ability to perceive will decrease.

If someone attacks at this moment.

It's difficult to react.

But this New Potion has already determined that Kevin's reaction ability will far exceed normal levels.

Kevin is fundamentally someone who dislikes fighting, and he would never actually put himself in danger for the sake of fighting or testing drugs.

Slowly spit it out.

As if sensing something, the Giant Wolf took two steps back, lowered its body, and bared its teeth.

A wheezing, alert sound came from the other person's throat.

Two massive whips swung from his shoulders, their tips pointing directly at Kevin, as if ready to launch an attack at any moment.

It sensed a threat.

But they dared not launch a preemptive attack.

Kevin crouched slightly, his arms poised in a fighting stance.

Blue arcs of electricity began to surge across his body, and even his hair stood on end.

He had entered a state of "Godspeed" similar to Qi's.

"Is it my Nen ability?!"

Kiy was also hiding nearby, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

They look so alike.

It's so similar to his Nen ability state.

"Similar, but fundamentally different."

Melusina, who was familiar with Kevin's New Potion, explained briefly.

The Giant Wolf could no longer wait; it clearly sensed the increased threat posed by its opponent and its desire to attack.

"Call out!"

A sharp, piercing sound.

The giant whip on his shoulder suddenly shot out, slicing through the air, and stabbed at Kevin from two different directions, one in front and one behind.

Kevin did not act at this moment, but suddenly disappeared just as the giant whip was about to strike.

All that could be seen was the blue lightning disappearing from the spot.

Then a tiny bolt of lightning flashed forward; it wasn't an attack, but rather the trajectory of the movement.

In the blink of an eye.

Kevin then appeared beside the Giant Wolf.

The Giant Wolf's two left eyes immediately moved, spotting the suddenly appearing Kevin, and its body seemed to prepare to move.

But Kevin acted even faster.

Much faster.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

The crackling sound of the electric arc was the last sound the Giant Wolf heard.

A loud bang!

Kevin had already appeared beside the Giant Wolf's head, and his muscular thigh, crackling with electricity, slammed into the Giant Wolf's face.

A strike of pure power.

The Giant Wolf's face immediately contorted, and the impact caused Giant Wolf body to flip over, sending it flying.

In mid-air, the retracted bone whip immediately pierced the ground, and the Giant Wolf rolled over using the upward force of the bone whip.

After rolling once in the air, it slid backward on all fours for a distance before finally managing to steady itself.

"Crack!"

Another crackling sound of thunder.

Kevin had already appeared in front of the Giant Wolf.

He continued walking slowly forward, step by step.

The pace was steady and unhurried.

It's as if we're not in the midst of a battle, but rather just strolling around.

The Giant Wolf, naturally, would not ignore this situation, and its two giant whips pierced through without hesitation.

Ruthless, absolutely lethal.

But just as one of the arrows was about to hit, Kevin's body flickered like a phantom and dodged it.

Another one then pierced in from the side, but the same thing happened.

Kevin's body flickered as if in a dream, causing the opponent's attack to miss once again.

At this moment, the two giant whips continued to pierce through, and only the whooshing sound could be heard in the air.

The two giant whips had already created afterimages, as if a sky full of sharp spikes were attacking.

Kevin seemed to have remained stationary; only upon closer inspection could one discern his constantly flickering figure.

The fleeting figures moved so fast, and each time they returned to their original position, that it was impossible to tell what was going on.

Visually, it appears as if Kevin is constantly walking forward, with all attacks passing through his body.

"He's still in a state of near-death. Has his pure physical body already reached this level?"

Jin's eyes had already entered a state of "focus".

It wasn't because Kevin used stealth or anything.

It's simply because if he didn't do it this way, he might not even be able to see Kevin's movements and would be visually deceived.

"The difference is too great. Kevin's pure physical strength alone is enough to leave me completely helpless."

2

Jin's voice sounded somewhat helpless.

I had never imagined such an extreme state before, but now that Kevin has shown it himself, it's truly astonishing.

Regarding Nen ability.

In a state of "absolute" weakness, during battle, it's tantamount to courting death.

They were completely bound hand and foot, at the mercy of others.

Now Kevin is essentially handcuffed, yet he can still easily defeat anyone else.

Such a gap is enough to drive one to despair.

"Idiot, it's New Potion. Without the New Potion, Kevin's body is indeed powerful, but it's not this exaggerated."

Biscuit, remained remarkably calm and offered a reminder.

"You're the idiot. The potion's power is Kevin's power, and the current state will soon stabilize. What's the difference?"

Jin retorted.

However, he understood Biscuit's meaning and said, "But that's precisely what motivates people to catch up. Without such strength, how can one freely explore the Dark Continent?"

The current goals are clearer and more resolute than ever before.

Meanwhile, the battle was raging in the center of the arena.

Kevin, his body crackling with blue electric arcs, slowly walked up to the Giant Wolf.

The Giant Wolf had fully realized the threat Kevin posed and its own powerlessness; it wanted to turn and leave.

But there was no other way.

He felt a pressure weighing on him, and he couldn't just turn around and run away.

He is struggling.

Kevin slightly raised his right hand, the eye mark in his palm facing the Giant Wolf.

At this point, the Giant Wolf was completely under control, and any further struggle was pointless.

He felt absolutely Domination.

"Now, lie down."

The Giant Wolf retracted its bone whip and obediently lay down on the ground.

Kevin walked over, patted the wolf's head, and stroked the Giant Wolf's somewhat stiff fur.

He expressed his meaning through the eye pattern in his hand.

Subsequently, income Domination.

And so, under Kevin's watchful gaze, the Giant Wolf lay prone, and even without being Domination, it did not struggle to get up again.

Instead, it emitted a whimpering sound.

He surrendered.

"Clever."

The Nen Aura surged forth again, and the experiment had almost achieved its intended effect.

When it sensed that Kevin had completely unleashed his power, the Giant Wolf crouched even lower.

This was completely beyond his ability to handle; it was the kind of existence that one had to avoid even if they saw it from afar.

[Electric Propulsion] medicine.

This is the name Kevin gave to the new A-Rank potion in his hand; this potion is undoubtedly the top-tier A-Rank potion.

Muscles plus electricity.

The effect of using the drug is to significantly enhance the quality of the body's muscles, and the muscles will rub against each other, causing the cells to generate electricity out of thin air.

These electrical currents are steady and continuous, providing stable stimulation to the entire muscle.

This is because the muscles are strengthened, and the electrical discharge originates from the muscles themselves.

This self-energizing state prevents muscles from becoming fatigued.

In other words, this is a pure physical talent, and even without using Qi cultivation, even if one enters a closed, absolute state, it will not affect the generation of this ability at all.

Furthermore, if one is willing to use Nen Aura to enhance it, the entire Electric Propulsion state will be further strengthened.

Under such circumstances.

It has stronger momentum, sharper perception, and faster action.

It's a comprehensive enhancement beyond just defensive capabilities.

The most extreme aspect of this enhancement is the speed of action.

If we had to make an analogy...

The intensity is several times greater than that of pure physical speed.

Originally, Youpi's Heart could actually be used as the main ingredient to create a potion that grants the ability to change and manipulate muscles.

However, Kevin gave up after some consideration.

Because it's not suitable.

His body's learning ability was already weak, and now that his body has additional limbs and joints, he will be unable to adapt.

This doesn't significantly improve his combat effectiveness.

Furthermore, his combat abilities have become a system in themselves.

For Electric Drive, directly increasing the base values is actually more appropriate.

Fancy abilities are fine with extra potions.
