Infinite Fighting

Chapter 66: Chapter 59: Blood of Dela

When Zhang Ji saw Robby again, he sensed a strange, bubbling excitement coming from him.

’Did he develop something special?’

Then again, in the game, he seemed to have the same astonished and shocked expression when facing players.

"Is there a problem?" Zhang Ji asked.

"Your constitution is unique. Standard prosthetics won’t be compatible, and even if we install one, it will likely break during any strenuous activity," Robby said.

"Just find a temporary one for now," Zhang Ji said.

He had his own plans.

’If all else fails, I remember there’s a sect called the Silk Heaven Sect in a Ruins Realm within the Eastern Extreme Country. They have a purple-grade (Epic) fighting technique called the Celestial Silkworm Rebirth Scripture.’

’Once mastered, it can reverse one’s physical state, de-aging them to youth before they rapidly grow up again. This allows them to live a second life, refreshing their original base talents and taking them to a higher level.’

’Forget a missing leg—even if your internal organs are destroyed, as long as your head is intact, you can survive by successfully activating the Cultivation Technique.’

The Sect Leader of the Silk Heaven Sect, the Divine Silkworm Ascendant, relied on this method to snatch life from the jaws of death multiple times. He lived through nine rebirths but ultimately died during his tenth transformation due to a lack of foundational energy.

Even so, he lived for nearly ten thousand years.

A B-rank fighter can typically live for about five hundred years.

An A-rank fighter can live for about a thousand years.

According to player speculation, the Divine Silkworm Ascendant was also A-rank. The fact that he could live for ten thousand years meant his lifespan was ten times that of others at the same rank.

Of course, in the hands of players, this skill wasn’t used to increase lifespan. Its main purpose was to act as a second health bar.

When you were about to die, you could just use Celestial Silkworm Rebirth, form a cocoon on the spot, and regenerate health. As long as the cocoon wasn’t broken, you could fully heal in ten seconds. The cocoon itself had five times the player’s health bar, so even if you didn’t fight back, it would take forever to destroy.

.....

That momentary leap of thought brought many things to Zhang Ji’s mind.

Robby spoke, building the suspense. "I have another way. You might not need to install a prosthetic."

"Speak," Zhang Ji said.

"I’ve developed an Alchemy Potion called [Reboot No. 1]. This Alchemy Potion can reboot flesh and blood, rewinding your cellular memory to return your cells to their peak, perfect state," Robby said.

"Are there side effects?" Zhang Ji keenly sensed something from the shift in Robby’s demeanor.

"I’m missing a stabilizing agent, so there’s a small chance of failure. So far, no human trials have succeeded," Robby said.

"What’s the approximate failure rate?" Zhang Ji asked.

He wasn’t bothered by the fact that Robby conducted human experiments.

This guy wasn’t called the "Mad Alchemist" just for robbing a royal tomb.

He had absolutely no qualms about using human subjects for his experiments.

In his backstory, before he arrived in the Color Cluster Country, it was said that one of his failed Alchemy experiments cost the lives of millions in an entire city.

Fortunately, at this stage, he probably wasn’t that unhinged yet and still had some self-control.

After all, he only truly lost it in the version after the Saint King War.

The reason for his descent into madness was supposedly that, after trying countless possibilities, he was never able to find a subject compatible with the Sun God bloodline potion.

No living creature could contain the Sun God’s bloodline. In his frustration, he began to disseminate the bloodline on a massive, widespread scale, which ultimately led to disaster.

"With lab mice, I get about one success for every twenty," Robby said tentatively.

"A ninety-five percent failure rate?"

Zhang Ji laughed in amusement. ’And he calls that a "small" chance of failure?’

"And with the stabilizer?" Zhang Ji asked.

"Then it should be one hundred percent successful," Robby said, patting his chest in assurance.

But that guarantee had zero credibility. In Zhang Ji’s Spiritual Perception, Robby’s lack of confidence was impossible to hide.

"You’d better tell me the truth."

Zhang Ji lightly squeezed a mechanical arm. With a CRUNCH, the arm deformed, the clear imprints of his five fingers branded onto its surface.

"I’m not sure, but you should be able to succeed," Robby said, startled into changing his tune.

"Be more specific," Zhang Ji said.

"Your bloodline is very special, highly receptive. As long as we have that stabilizer to slow down the potion’s activation speed, you can definitely withstand it," Robby explained, still holding something back.

’Find a stabilizer, a highly receptive bloodline? Why does that sound so familiar?’

Zhang Ji muttered to himself.

He felt this was incredibly similar to the quest Robby gave out in the game.

"Bloodline transfer?" Zhang Ji suddenly asked, using his phone’s translator.

"You understand bloodline Alchemy as well?" Robby asked, startled, his voice low and cautious.

"A little. Your so-called [Reboot No. 1]... does it rely on some kind of bloodline to achieve its effect?" Zhang Ji said.

"Alright, that’s just a name I made up. The truth is, I’m researching a special bloodline. It has an immense background. If it can be successfully transplanted into a human and awakened, it will drastically enhance cellular activity and all sorts of other attributes. Restoring cells to their peak and regrowing severed limbs is just one of its effects!"

Seeing that Zhang Ji was in the know, Robby couldn’t help but reveal a bit more.

"What bloodline is it?" Zhang Ji pressed.

He wanted to confirm if Robby, just like in the game, was using him to complete his experiment on transplanting the Sun God’s bloodline.

"It’s just... a very special bloodline..." Robby said vaguely.

"Speak clearly!" Zhang Ji said, moving a step closer.

’He wasn’t about to become a test subject without knowing all the details.’
