The Opportunity Created by Counterbalancing
Each level of the sequence represents a level of power, and Zhou Rihui, in the Fifth Sequence, is at the very bottom of the current mainstream sequence in terms of strength.
Those in the Sixth Sequence are wary of being injured and defeated by Zhou Rihui during sparring, but when it comes to life-or-death battles, Zhou Rihui has a high probability of being the one who dies.
Having entered the Sixth Sequence, Zhou Rihui will no longer fear most Sixth Sequence individuals, and may even be able to fight fiercely against some Seventh Sequence individuals.
There are only ten people in the world at the Seventh Sequence. Once someone steps into the Sixth Sequence, they will become the eleventh!
Moving from over a hundred to eleventh place is merely a breakthrough in one level of ranking.
This is not just about Zhou Rihui's personal ranking, but also a powerful tool for stabilizing the Scarlet Alliance State.
When the Seventh Sequence is not available, the Scarlet Alliance State will be ruled by the strength of the Zhou Rihui sequence.
"Ren Yisheng... never mind, let's just call him Rihui the twelfth!"
Thinking of Ren Yisheng, who could rival Zhang Qiaoen, and whose ability to harvest Sequence Holder was like mowing grass, Zhou Yueyan felt that Ren Yisheng was difficult to deal with, and she didn't want Zhou Rihui to compete with Ren Yisheng.
Zhou Rihui is a master in the conventional sense, while Ren Yisheng is a master in a special sense.
The former is suitable for any intense fighting situation, while the latter can exert tremendous power under specific conditions and will bring a stronger deterrent effect than Zhou Rihui.
Excluding special-type experts like Ren Yisheng, Zhou Yueyan looked around and felt that she could only see Zhou Xin's combat strength positioning in the Sixth Sequence back then.
This made her heart pound wildly, and she even wondered if there was any possibility that she might be involved.
If she were to take the proper, upward path, Zhou Yueyan felt she lacked confidence, but if she were to take the wrong path, her confidence would suddenly surge.
"It's just a matter of eating three pounds!"
Thinking about the amount of medicine Zhou Rihui obtained from the B13 Research Institute, Zhou Yueyan felt that she could also complete this task.
Let alone eating three pounds of vomiting medicine that could bring about an increase in ability, even if it meant eating feces, Zhou Yueyan believed that as long as eating feces could help one enter the Sixth Sequence, a bunch of Fifth Sequence individuals would line up to eat it.
Zhang Xuezhou's assessment of the gene-enhancing effects of the drug is uncertain, while Zhou Yueyan's assessment also leans towards risk.
However, if this drug can promote the body's original genes, and even promote sequence advancement when combined with blood serum, Zhou Yueyan felt that this was a godsend.
"Auntie, my dear auntie, I'm back!"
Zhou Yueyan did not live in the Zhou Household's villa area, but moved into the Zhou Household's medical center.
The Zhou Household's medical center is not well-known. After all, the probability of Zhou Household being injured is extremely low. Even if a member of the Zhou Household were to suffer a serious injury, it would be very difficult to save them.
However, the Zhou Household medical center has no shortage of equipment; it has everything it needs.
Upon hearing the voice, Zhou Yueyan quickly reached for the bandages wrapped around her chest, and only after recognizing Zhou Tianhao's voice did she loosen her grip.
"Haohao, you never say good things when you draw out your words. Remember to close the door when you come in," Zhou Yueyan scolded.
"Don't hit me! Brother Zhang said if you want to know the answer, you should find it yourself. Don't mess with me. He said my body can't handle the conflict between the two medications," Zhou Tianhao shouted as he slammed the door shut.
"You mean Auntie has to take it herself?" Zhou Yueyan frowned and said, "You child, you don't understand the importance of caring for an elder's injuries. How can someone in my condition test any medicine!"
"The flesh has all grown back, I watched it grow back!"
What did you say?
Zhou Tianhao is somewhat carefree and easily gets into trouble, which could render Zhou Yueyan and the others' infiltration efforts futile.
This forced Zhou Yueyan to constantly remind Zhou Tianhao, but she never imagined that this guy would be so incredibly stubborn.
Of course, Zhou Tianhao's words are not very credible, and few people would believe that she could recover quickly after being severely injured by Zhang Qiaoen.
But credibility and Zhou Tianhao's unfiltered words when facing acquaintances are two different things. This made Zhou Yueyan work on both hands and feet until she was done, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"I'm injured and my body is weak. I don't even have the strength to hit anyone!" Zhou Yueyan said, rubbing her forehead.
"You don't even have the strength to hit someone, so what about all the pain I'm in? Lots of people say you're a tigress who can't get married, and I didn't believe it before, but now I do! You just keep hitting me like this, a little every day, a big beating every three days. Who else could stand you!"
Shut up!
Zhou Yueyan originally wanted to give Zhou Tianhao another warning, but considering Zhou Rihui's situation, she decided not to pursue the matter further and simply urged Zhou Tianhao to get the medicine.
Zhang Xuezhou provided nearly half a pound of the drug for testing, a quantity that Zhou Tianhao could fully test to his limit with leftovers.
However, it would be too little for Zhou Yueyan to undergo a test involving consuming three kilograms of drugs, so she couldn't help but ask Zhou Tianhao about the related medications.
Zhou Yueyan was relieved to learn that Zhang Xuezhou had a sufficient supply of medicine.
"Get out of here! You can't even handle such a small matter. Don't make me angry!" Zhou Yueyan said.
"Brother Zhang said you shouldn't take medicine haphazardly or indiscriminately!"
"Hurry up!"
After sending Zhou Tianhao away who had just returned with the medicine, Zhou Yueyan looked at the bluish-green plaster.
This plaster doesn't have a nauseating smell; on the contrary, it has a pleasant medicinal fragrance. However, the irritation it causes when it enters the mouth is indescribable.
"Brother Zhang, my brother not only can fly after taking those beast and giant bird extracts from you, but he also stepped into the Sixth Sequence through blood potion counteraction. Tell me, should I take the beast and giant bird medicine, or this Moo Lan medicine?"
Before taking the medication, Zhou Yueyan consulted Zhang Xuezhou in advance.
As an ability that comes with the consumption of medication, Zhou Yueyan would not choose the same ability as Zhou Rihui to avoid a conflict between the two in terms of medication needs.
However, the medication Zhou Rihui was taking was different from the medication she had, making it difficult for Zhou Yueyan to determine whether she had a chance of repeating Zhou Rihui's situation.
"What? Taking this kind of medicine can help you reach the Sixth Sequence?"
"Rihui said that after taking the medicine, he chose to use a blood serum to counteract the effects, and then unknowingly stepped into the Sixth Sequence. He's still a bit dazed; he never expected such a good thing to happen!"
"This works?"
Not only was Zhou Yueyan in disbelief, but Zhang Xuezhou was also clearly incredulous.
"If I can use the blood serum to counteract the effects and enter the Sixth Sequence, does that mean I might be able to enter the Third Sequence?" Zhang Xuezhou asked.
"Then your ambitions are far too low!"
Upon learning the relevant information, Zhang Xuezhou's reaction was no different from Zhou Yueyan's. The difference was that Zhang Xuezhou's goal was only the Third Sequence, which was a bit far from the Sixth Sequence that Zhou Yueyan had imagined.
"I can only say that after injecting a large amount of blood serum and these ferocious beast drugs to counteract the physical mutations, the body may have a chance to achieve a sequence upgrade," Zhou Yueyan said. "This is my current judgment. If you have enough blood serum, I suggest you also consider trying this research!"
Zhang Xuezhou has no physical problems; in fact, he has taken two kinds of drugs extracted from ferocious beasts. This undoubtedly involved the use of blood-based remedies, and Zhang Xuezhou will certainly try this again in the future. After the sequence is upgraded, it may even strengthen his original abilities.
Zhou Yueyan's notification merely indicated this possibility in advance, and also reminded Zhang Xuezhou to pay attention to his physical condition while taking the medication, and to seize any opportunities that arise.
For a moment, not only Zhou Yueyan felt a surge of excitement, but even Zhang Xuezhou couldn't contain his joy.
Zhang Xuezhou felt that everything was ready except for one crucial element: as long as the blood serum from the Changkong Household and the R32 catalyst debugged by the Zhou Household were supplied in large quantities, his probability of entering the Third Sequence would increase again.
If the probability of this advancement isn't as unreliable as the Yin-Yang School's Realm Techniques, it could potentially involve the Fourth Sequence or even higher levels.
"The Third Sequence can be improved as long as enough resources are accumulated, and I must at least use that possibility to pursue the Fourth Sequence!"
Zhang Xuezhou pondered for a while and felt that using this increased probability on the Third Sequence was a serious waste. Even if he wanted to quickly advance the sequence level, he should choose to use it when rushing into the Fourth Sequence.
