If he could get a few elixir then Zhao Yu could ensure his own safety while travelling outside. At least not having to fear being snatched by eagles during the day.
Someone chuckled, âYou think just anyone can drink this kind of elixir?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âThe new elixir, though potent, has a very poor compatibility rate.â
Meng Xian casually added, â1 got both elixirs by participating in a drug trial.â
âFrom my batch of about ten thousand participants, only about ten made it out alive.â
âSuch a high mortality rate?!â
âAfter the trial, the Reed Group just let you go?â Zhao Yu was curious about the intention of the Reed Group.
âWe are paying them and you think you can drink or buy whichever tier of elixir you want?â
âTo consume the tier-three elixir, at the very least, your physical attributes must meet a standard. Only when you match the Reed Groupâs criteria will they sell the tier-three elixir, and you must consume it at their base.â Meng Xian said proudly.
âYou mean after drinking this elixir, physical attributes can continue to enhance?â Zhao Yu inferred the implication in her words.
âOf course, continuous training is necessary to hasten the process. According to the Reed Groupâs explanation, itâs a method of tapping into our potential.â
She didnât understand the academic aspects, even the theories the Reed Group had explained were beyond her comprehension.
As long as her strength could be enhanced, thatâs all that mattered.
âSo, those who participated in the tier-three elixir experiment with you. Did they all met the Reed Groupâs criteria?â
âExactly.â
âWe all started from the tier-one elixir and progressed to tier three.â Meng Xian nodded.
âOnce Iâm strong enough, 1â11 make another trip to the Reed Group to see if I can pass the tier-four.â
Zhao Yu was curious about the Reed Group, âIsnât the Reed Groupâs headquarters on another continent?â
âThey have multiple bases.â
Meng Xian replied indifferently, âWhy are you asking so many questions? It seems you canât even handle the tier-one elixir.â
Zhao Yu felt slighted, âI can pull a pig thatâs around 100-150 kg.â
âHAHAHAâ!â
The group erupted in laughter.
This made Zhao Yuâs face turn red with embarrassment, feeling a bit humiliated.
âLittle Six, introduce yourself to him!â
One of the skinny men stepped forward and walked in front of Zhao Yu. âIâve drunk a Tier 1 potion before, but my body hasnât reached the standard. 1 didnât pass the Tier 2 test, so Iâm still considered to be at the Tier 1 standardâŠâ
âAs for strength, I can throw a wild boar like the one you mentioned five meters away by myself with one handâŠâ
H H
Zhao Yu fell silent. Was this potion really that strong?!
Little Six did not seem to be bragging.
In that case, the world had indeed developed faster after the apocalypse.
Zhao Yu couldnât help but think of a rumor from before the apocalypse.
It was said that the Reed Group had already conducted human experiments. From the looks of it, the possibility was not low.
After the apocalypse, due to the radiation, the radio could not be used anymore. All of Zhao Yuâs information came from the gathering point nearby, so it was normal for him to be outdated.
After all, that gathering point wasnât very notable. It was mainly inhabited by local residents, and the items they traded were mostly foodstuffs.
âIt seems you donât even know a lot of common knowledgeâŠâ
Meng Xian commented, then turned to the others, âThis town of theirs seems quite safeâŠâ
âYeah, it must be a secluded small town.â
Zhao Yu felt embarrassed. The distance between them was just over ten kilometers, yet they didnât even know of his townâs existence.
After all, in his entire town, only his household remained and others already moved out long ago. It was reasonable for them to be unaware.
Without proper communication devices unlike before the apocalypse. An over twenty kilometers apart would resulted in lack of information of each others.
With that in mind, it was understandable for them not to know of Zhao Yuâs circumstances.
After all, who would travel such a distance just to trade some meat and grain?
âSo, weâre heading there directly? Weâre not waiting for nighttime?â As the group ready to move on, Zhao Yu couldnât help but ask.
âWhatâs there to fear? Mutated beasts wonât specifically target us.â
âIf we encounter irradiated beasts, with our leader here, weâll drive them off.â
Upon reflection, Zhao Yu realized that this was true. The eagles and other aerial creatures he most feared seemed insignificant in front of Meng Xian.
âYou donât usually venture out during the day, do you?â
Meng Xian had an epiphany, âMoving around at night, staying in during the day and avoiding the sun, no wonder youâre so fairâŠâ
Zhao Yu ignored her teasing, but at the moment, he kept asking himself a question.
Should he reveal his refuge?
If he doesnât, where would he lead them?
