Chapter 371: The Swift Walker Strain 28: The Development Direction of the Pumitz Virus

"Gene comparison results confirmed—werewolf bloodline, bloodline undergoing continuous purification..."

"Spirituality Factor Level is medium..."

"Single power output strength is 258 kilograms, maximum attack speed is 215 m/s, maximum movement burst speed is 123 km/h..."

Inside the Genetic Modification Laboratory, Weiss was assisting the researchers with the final checks.

Miller looked away from the screen and towards Yu Yuan.

"It can now be confirmed that the 【Werewolf Genetic Modification Serum】 is a complete success. According to what Weiss says, after completing the werewolf transformation, he indeed received werewolf-related legacy information in his mind, and he indicated that as his strength increases, he will obtain even more bloodline inheritance."

"Currently, he also does not sense the existence of a higher-level controller, which is consistent with the information provided by Hogg. Regarding whether high-tier werewolves influence low-tier werewolves, further testing is still needed."

"Weiss says the ability he used in combat is called 【Bloodthirsty Battle Will】, which can temporarily increase movement speed and attack speed. This ability has been recorded."

Miller was somewhat excited.

"Master, I'm afraid even the true Wolf Clan wouldn't imagine that we could directly bypass their bloodline blockade using Gray Wolf genes and steal their internal bloodline inheritance."

"As long as we confirm that our genetically modified werewolves are not influenced or controlled by orthodox werewolf bloodlines, wouldn't that mean we possess werewolf warriors belonging to our own civilization?"

"And it's the kind where we borrow another's hen to lay our own eggs!"

Yu Yuan was also very pleased, but he remained quite cautious as he said to Miller:

"Don't be careless. The Wolf Clan, as a racial civilization on the same level as vampires, their progenitors are also Gold-tier creatures. They are not something we can underestimate."

"The 【Werewolf Genetic Modification Serum】 still has certain flaws. The most important one is that after completing the werewolf mutation, as the werewolf bloodline gradually replaces the human bloodline, the impact of wild instincts on human consciousness still carries a certain degree of risk. This aspect still needs to be overcome as soon as possible."

"Also, after the werewolf bloodline transformation succeeds, strength can continue to be improved, meaning the werewolf bloodline can continue to be purified. This point can reference Hogg's awakening method, utilizing stimulation from Blood Clan bloodlines and purification through the 【Wolf Clan Totem】. These can all be leveraged."

"As for whether orthodox werewolves will influence our genetically modified werewolves... I will find a way to capture an orthodox werewolf. Then we'll know for sure."

Yu Yuan offered his insights.

"Agreed. Both Hogg and Weiss obtained werewolf bloodlines through Gray Wolf genes. We definitely need an orthodox werewolf for comparative study. With a comparison, we can research it better." Miller fully agreed with Yu Yuan's idea.

This time, Yu Yuan also brought Miller and the others some Blood Energy liquid from the 【Blood Fountain】.

Although it's not yet clear whether Blood Energy also has a stimulating effect on werewolf bloodlines, they would try it first and see.

Leaving the Genetic Modification Laboratory, he arrived at the Spiritual Creature Laboratory.

Jiu Feng's experiment had also reached a critical moment; he was so preoccupied he couldn't even go check on the werewolf experiment.

Inside the same Biological Mutation Chamber, a monkey was frantically twisting its body. Jiu Feng stared intently at the experimental instruments, not even noticing Yu Yuan's arrival.

Yu Yuan did not disturb him, because in his Combat Detector, that monkey's life level was advancing towards Bronze-tier.

He waited like this for nearly half an hour. On the Combat Detector, the monkey's life level finally stabilized completely at Bronze-tier.

The monkey's twisting body slowly stopped, leaving only heavy panting.

"Swiftstrider Test Subject No. 28 vital signs beginning to stabilize. Spirituality Factor Level 【Low】, life level Bronze-tier..."

As the researchers reported, cheers erupted throughout the laboratory.

A relieved smile also appeared on Jiu Feng's face.

"Test the virus activity and transmission intensity within 【Swiftstrider Test Subject No. 28】..." It was then that he noticed Yu Yuan's figure behind him.

"Master, you're here!"

"Jiu Feng, has the Swiftstrider Virus modification succeeded?"

Yu Yuan looked at the monkey inside the Biological Mutation Chamber with curiosity.

"Yes. I used a solution of Spirituality Concentrate to induce mutation in the original Swiftstrider Virus, successfully inducing four variant strains. Then I cultivated and optimized these four variant strains. This 【Swiftstrider Strain No. 28】 is currently the most perfect version."

"The aggressiveness of 【Swiftstrider Strain No. 28】 has been restricted. Now that the primate animal experiment has succeeded, we only need to conduct the final human live experiment to confirm the virus's mutation stability."

Yu Yuan became interested. His expectations for the Swiftstrider Virus were quite high.

He immediately asked, "What about the effects of 【Swiftstrider Strain No. 28】?"

Jiu Feng organized his thoughts and spoke slowly, "Actually, the inspiration for 【Swiftstrider Strain No. 28】 came from the 【Spiritual Enhancement Potion】."

"Since the original purpose of the 【Promiz Virus】 was merely to enhance humans, the emergence of the Infected was the result of being unable to withstand the body modification by the 【Promiz Virus】, leading to genetic collapse and chaotic development."

"So, I directly altered the attack capability of the Swiftstrider Virus, making its modification of the body more gentle and prolonged. This way, it can also achieve an enhancement effect."

"From the current data, although its aggressiveness has been weakened, its movement speed aspect has been strengthened, and the probability of losing control and mutating has been reduced."

Yu Yuan pondered thoughtfully.

"So, you're saying 【Swiftstrider Strain No. 28】 is essentially a variant version of the 【Spiritual Enhancement Potion】. As long as one endures the virus modification process, they won't lose their sanity and will receive targeted body enhancement."

"You could say that!" Jiu Feng confirmed.

"In my view, the enhancement effect of the 【Promiz Virus】 far exceeds that of the previous animal 【Genetic Modification Serum】. It acts directly on the human body's own genes, rather than chimerically combining animal genes with human genes, resulting in stronger genetic stability."

"Furthermore, by inducing the 【Promiz Virus】, we can obtain many variant strains in different directions. From these variant strains, we can screen for powerful virus variants for targeted optimization and cultivation, selecting the strengths of the strains and discarding their flaws, which instead offers infinite possibilities."

Jiu Feng's words made Yu Yuan think of those different types of Elite Infected and Leader-level Infected within Freedom Tower.

If Jiu Feng's idea could be realized, it would undoubtedly be a huge leap forward for the Ten Thousand Nations Pact Civilization.

"Good, this is a very good idea. Proceed with research in this direction. If you need anything, tell me, and I'll find a way."

Then he saw Jiu Feng wearing an expression of hesitation, wanting to speak but holding back.

"There actually is one matter that needs to be resolved as soon as possible."

Yu Yuan was amused. Speak of the devil.

"What is it?"

Jiu Feng said seriously, "The experiments require a large number of test subjects. Not only do the virus experiments require human experimentation, but obtaining 【Spirituality Concentrate】 also requires a large number of sacrifices. But now, the heavy snow has sealed the city. It's estimated no scavengers or scavengers could make it through."

"And we can't use our own people for risky experiments or sacrifices..."

Yu Yuan understood Jiu Feng's meaning.

"You mean?"

"Master, enemies from other worlds..."
