Dangerous Medicine

There are agreed-upon procedures for drug testing in the laboratory.

Zhou Tianhao didn't even glance at it before signing his name on the risk notification form and then communicated with Zhou Rihui via communicator.

"Don't do anything reckless with Committee Member Zhang. Remember, don't stand out. He gets to eat first, you just need to be second!"

"I'm the first one!"

"What right do you have to be number one? You have no right to be number one!"

"That's all for now. I've already notified the parents according to procedure. I'm going to do the medication test now!"

Zhou Rihui and Zhou Tianhao exchanged only a few words before Zhou Tianhao abruptly hung up the communicator.

"It seems this medicine works on blood serum!"

Zhou Tianhao happily collected all the necessary ingredients, then looked at the pile of medicinal dregs that Zhang Xuezhou had brewed.

It must be said that the drugs Zhang Xuezhou formulated contained a considerable amount of impurities, unlike modern processes that pursue purity.

But Zhou Tianhao didn't care. After all, Zhang Xuezhou's medicine wasn't injectable; it was swallowed. What did he care about impurities or ingredients when it went into his mouth?

"It does have some effect," Zhang Xuezhou nodded, "But I haven't figured out the standard dosage yet, so just take some!"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed to the medicine, indicating to Zhou Tianhao to take it according to his physical condition.

"Eat whatever you want again?"

Zhang Xuezhou's standard is that there is no standard; as long as it's within the body's tolerance and doesn't kill you, it's fine.

Zhou Tianhao thought about how he used to be covered in bird feathers, and then thought about how he could now fly and jump. He couldn't help but harden his mind.

Instead of tasting a little at a time like most people would, he took the standard spoon prepared by Zhang Xuezhou and poured a spoonful of 250 milliliters directly into his mouth.

As long as it doesn't cause internal organ failure and death, Zhou Tianhao felt that the other negative effects were tolerable.

Compared to his peers or Sequence Holder at the same level, he has a significant physical advantage.

Moreover, Zhou Tianhao witnessed Zhang Xuezhou taking the medicine with a blank expression, injecting blood serum in an orderly manner, and then preparing the medicine. Zhou Tianhao felt that his condition was not too outrageous.

He kept reassuring himself, but the moment the potion was poured in, Zhou Tianhao felt a momentary daze, as if he had returned to his youth when he was undergoing bone and flesh tempering.

Although Zhou Rihui did not train his children to practice traditional martial arts as rigorously as Zhou Xin, he was still beaten quite a bit, and was even nearly beaten to death once.

This feeling was suffocating for Zhou Tianhao, and he had repeatedly thought about escaping from the Zhou Household.

Many years have passed, and even Zhou Tianhao felt that he had forgotten these past memories.

But after taking the medication, he felt all sorts of past memories flooding back, even causing him to tremble with fear all over his body.

He lingered in these painful memories, but his body was extremely honest, even as he trembled, his muscles tensed and strained, pushing them to almost the limit of what he could do.

This limit is not something that can be maintained for a second or even a minute; it will continue until he completely loses consciousness.

Zhou Tianhao repeatedly felt that he would collapse at any moment, but somehow a new power surged within him, as if he had broken through his limits, allowing him to hold on.

"We didn't prepare enough blood!"

In a daze, just as Zhou Tianhao was about to collapse, he heard a familiar voice.

His consciousness began to return to normal, and he could see his surroundings clearly.

Everywhere he looked, there were people, and he was firmly pinned to the ground by Zhang Manqian, surrounded by a jumble of messy instruments and parts.

"Why did you hit me? What did I do?"

Zhou Tianhao muttered something and shook his head vigorously.

As his gaze swept over his body, he noticed the diamond-shaped texture on his arms, the thick skin and tough flesh showing remarkable elasticity and resilience.

Although he was pinned to the ground by Zhang Manqian and felt like he had been hit, Zhou Tianhao did not feel any pain in his body.

He felt that while he was immersed in his memories, a piece of his memory was missing.

"Wait, am I in the Fourth Sequence?"

After thinking for more than ten seconds, Zhou Tianhao suddenly came to his senses and saw the envy that began to show in the eyes of many people.

"Zhou Tianhao's brain doesn't seem to be broken; he still knows his own sequence level!"

Zuo Denggao was the first to speak.

"Zhou Tianhao, who is your father? Who is your mother? Who is your grandfather? Do you remember all of these?"

"Tianhao, I'm going to ask you a question that's only for third-grade students. Do you dare to answer it?"

Are you still of sound mind?

"Should I go get a standard test paper?"

Seemingly still somewhat uneasy, many of them wanted to verify the information when they spoke.

"Zhang Manqian, put me down first, I'm having trouble breathing because of the weight!"

Zhou Tianhao barely managed to lift his head to look at everyone, then began to beg for mercy from Zhang Manqian was pressed against his back.

What Third Sequence or Fourth Sequence? What flying, fighting humanoid tyrannosaurus? You'll know the truth when you get beaten up.

Zhou Tianhao felt he should be happy, after all, he held a very high degree of awe for the Fourth Sequence and believed that he would have to endure hardship to enter Fourth Sequence, and that there might only be a chance to enter it at some point.

The time came much faster than he had imagined, and nearly five years earlier than when Zhou Rihui and Zhou Yueyan entered the Fourth Sequence.

At the sequence level, he has clearly surpassed his teacher.

Regardless of what gene-editing drugs he used or what conditions he relied on, the world of sequences only tells the answers, not the process, and in this respect, he is indeed superior to Zhou Rihui and others.

However, Zhou Tianhao did not expect that when he broke through the sequence level, he would be pinned to the floor and unable to move, which was completely different from the high spirits he had imagined when he broke through the sequence.

He wanted to be happy, but the painful memories of the past and the broken feeling of being beaten made it impossible for him to be happy.

"I'm not sick, I'm perfectly lucid, I can answer the questions. Don't even mention third grade, you could test me on a third-year university gene editing theory course, I could even work out the questions! Can you let me up first? I'm trapped here and can't use my strength!"

After answering everyone's questions, Zhou Tianhao finally felt the pressure on his joints loosen.

He stood up and saw that he was surrounded by a mess, and he almost walked out of the B13 Research Institute.

"What have I done?" Zhou Tianhao complained. "Did I cause trouble?"

"I only managed to fight haphazardly for two or three hundred meters using the Black Armor Combat Technique," Zhang Manqian said, pursing her lips. "Have someone come and repair the venue in the next few days!"

"Knew!"

Zhou Tianhao nodded resignedly, then craned his neck to look at the broken sections along the way.

Where is Song Sijia?

Zhou Tianhao looked around and saw that in addition to the people who had been in the observation room, there were also some staff members from the research institute. Even Luo Burang, who usually didn't bother with these young people, showed up.

But Song Sijia was not among the crowd, which made his heart skip a beat.

"Song Sijia took two punches from you, but she thought it was pointless to keep getting hit, so she went to bed!"

Zhang Xuezhou replied, and Zhou Tianhao felt that he would inevitably have to pay compensation again.

But he was also glad that the incident happened at the B13 Institute.

The "Special Treatment for Bruises and Sprains" plaque hanging outside the B13 Research Institute is no joke. While Tuer Shen'en isn't omnipotent, it has an advantage in treating physical injuries that even modern technology struggles to match. There's absolutely no need to worry about Song Sijia being beaten to death.

"This medicine is too strong!"

Having experienced the nausea and vomiting caused by the extract of ferocious beasts, I also found it to be truly useful.

Zhou Tianhao was mentally prepared for the second test. Although both good and bad outcomes still existed, he realized that Zhang Xuezhou's drug seemed to have dramatically increased the utilization rate of the gene serum in a short period of time.

If the absorption rate of the blood agent due to continuous exercise after injection is about 5%, then combined with this drug, the absorption and utilization rate in a short period of time may reach 30%, directly raising the level of high-end gene drugs to a new level.

The mental disorder is more like a kind of adaptation between body and mind, almost like a burst of decay and exhaustion driving the body forward.

This is a good medicine, but it is also a dangerous one.

Zhou Tianhao felt he could pull through, but others might not.
