At nineteen, after trying thousands of materials, the improved Entropy-Increasing Compound Reagent was finally a success. The improved version showed a significant increase in effectiveness.
Even in Firefly's condition, a single dose of the improved Entropy-Increasing Compound Reagent could stabilize her illness within three days and prevent it from rapidly worsening.
However, after completing the improvement of the Entropy-Increasing Compound Reagent, research in the field encountered several bottlenecks, forcing you to slow the pace of your work there.
As spring arrived and the harsh winter in northern Glamour Star receded, the locust plague became active once more, surging toward the north. All the researchers of "Entropy Ash" began pouring their efforts into upgrading the Molten Knights.
Naturally, you were no exception. Yet compared with the two feasible approaches of upgrading the base materials and increasing Molten Knight production, you remained fixated on creating biotechnology with autonomous consciousness.
As time passed, Entropy Ash captured an exceptionally unusual locust from a deep-sea region of Glamour Star by chance. According to the measurements, the breadth of its brain region far exceeded that of ordinary locusts.
Like an elite monster in a game, every one of its indicators vastly surpassed those of ordinary locusts... This led you to suspect that the locusts had evolved as well.
Just as life had originated in the ocean, the locusts beneath the sea had been the first to mutate and evolve under various special conditions.
This was undoubtedly bad news for the people of Glamour Star, but these locusts with clearly expanded brain regions made your experiment more feasible.
Over the next three months, you began conducting live experiments on deep-sea locusts, including guiding them toward further mutation, taming them, and conducting stress-response experiments.
Your experiments drew considerable attention. Since they were carried out in a semi-public environment,
