Life Dungeon Game

Unlike the previous officer Zack who went straight to the top shelf where the test tubes were placed, Heo first squatted down and carefully inspected each shelf of test tubes under the refrigerator.
The openings of these test tube racks are all new, and their aging is different from that of the racks outside.
He Ao activated his super memory and scanned the area. Many of the marks on it were recent, proving that test tubes had been placed on these shelves for a long time.
For some reason, these test tubes were recently taken away.
So what's inside the test tube?
He Ao raised his head and looked at the two medicines on the top layer.
On the left is a translucent, milky-white liquid. According to the old patriarch of the Andavi family, this should be a stable diluted solution of the Fountain of Youth, which Coles calls the Elixir of Life.
On the right is a red potion that glows faintly.
The seven darkest vials had already been taken by the officers, leaving about thirteen lighter-colored vials.
He took out a pair of gloves from his pocket, put them on, and took out a vial of medicine.
This test tube is not a special transparent test tube like the one used to contain the life potion, but rather a test tube that looks similar to an ordinary mithril test tube.
He Ao carefully observed the medicine in the test tube. These medicines gave him a very familiar feeling... like... the secret medicine of the 'Warrior' pathway.
The color depth is almost identical to that of the 'Martial Artist' elixir, a D-level talent sequence in the Warrior path, while the seven reagents taken by the officer have a similar color depth to the 'Warrior' elixir.
In addition, the officers went to "besiege" Heo and took away seven doses of medicine.
He Ao roughly deduced that these red potions were the enhancement potions used by the squad that had previously ambushed him in the wilderness, potions that could boost physical abilities.
Back when the five men were besieging He Ao, He Ao had already guessed that Reed possessed a power-enhancing drug that could forcibly boost combat power. Based on this, he set up this scheme to lure Reed into opening the safe himself.
But now that he's actually come into contact with this enhancement potion, which seems to defy the laws of the universe, He Ao is still somewhat surprised.
…
All the knowledge about the extraordinary in his mind, whether it came from Ronald's knowledge as a wilderness wanderer or from Vian's, or from the secret knowledge he heard from his private doctor, mentioned that the talent sequence is the only extraordinary power that humans can currently master.
Of course, He Ao himself also knew about a supernatural power called martial arts.
Judging from the extraordinary individuals He Ao has encountered so far, it seems that everyone is bound to follow one of these two paths.
But now it seems that Qunxing Pharmaceuticals has found a third way.
He Ao held the potion in front of his eyes and shook it gently; the red liquid inside began to swirl slightly.
This seems to be a path where one can enhance their strength by using potions.
He Ao activated his divine sense and tentatively immersed himself in the test tube.
Countless chaotic and distorted thoughts rushed into his mind in an instant. The small test tube suddenly began to vibrate. In the vision of his divine sense, streams of energy surged in the test tube like breathing, as if they were about to burst out of the test tube and devour everything.
In that instant, He Ao withdrew his divine sense.
This is not some extraordinary potion at all, but rather a "stable energy" that forcibly harmonizes various chaotic forces together using a certain proportion of the Fountain of Youth water and "qi".
Even He Ao thought this was a bit crazy.
Judging from these blending ratios, the principle behind this enhancement potion's effectiveness is to instantly infuse a massive amount of extraordinary power into the human body, and then forcibly blend these powers through the Fountain of Youth and 'Qi' to make them controllable by the human body.
However, this comes at a high price.
Because what is extraordinary is not only power, but also madness.
Just by touching this drug, He Ao could feel the twisted and insane will contained within it. People who take this drug might be able to maintain their rationality for a short time, but after a few hours, or even less, they will completely lose their rationality and be completely transformed into twisted monsters.
This situation reminded Heo of another way to quickly acquire extraordinary power: 'divine grace'.
Cultists pray directly to the gods for great power through sacrifices. This is the simplest and easiest sacrifice request to be granted.
But God's gifts are not something everyone can receive.
Only a small number of people can obtain a stable talent sequence through divine grace. Most people will be overwhelmed by the extraordinary power bestowed by the gods, and will be completely twisted into crazy monsters the moment they receive divine grace.
There are even legends in the wilderness that cultists corrupted by 'divine grace' are the origin of certain humanoid beasts.
Of course, this is just a legend, and no one has actually verified it.
The gods do not care about the life or death of believers. They grant the gods their grace when believers pray for it, even if the grace is far beyond what believers can bear.
Of course, or perhaps, becoming a twisted monster is indeed a gift from the gods.
For those indescribable gods, seeing twisted monsters might be more pleasing to the eye than seeing rational humans.
The 'enhancing potion' in He Ao's hand is similar to 'Divine Grace', except that Starry Sky Pharmaceuticals has found a way to neutralize the madness and tyranny, giving these terrifying powers a period of 'stability' that can be controlled.
Although they all ultimately lead to madness and tyranny.
The reagent in the test tube gradually stabilized.
This is not a stable path to the extraordinary.
All violent pleasures will end in violence.
He put the vial back into the test tube rack.
Because this enhancement agent is contained in test tubes that look similar to ordinary mithril test tubes, and the entire test tube is wrapped with a layer of mithril with spacers, the marks left on the test tube rack are not complete marks, unlike the marks left on the refrigerator below.
The marks on the lower test tube racks are more uniform, more like the marks on test tubes containing life-saving drugs.
That is,
He Ao shifted his gaze to the life-saving medicine on his left.
This refrigerator was most likely filled with 'life-saving potions' not long ago.
Card--
Just then, a soft sound came from not far from He Ao's side.
He looked up in the direction from which the sound came from.
The silver metal door slowly opened.
Chapter 465 Immortal Life (Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)
The lights in the hallway and inside the safe shone on Reid simultaneously, casting a long shadow.
Reed looked inside the safe; the clean light shone on the hard metal walls, illuminating the empty interior.
He felt a little relieved.
Then, he slowly stepped into the safe.
The heavy metal door closed slowly as it was pulled by the motor.
He first walked to the refrigerator and reached out to open the refrigerator door.
The test tubes inside the refrigerator were neatly arranged, each one in its original position and perfectly oriented.
Seven doses of the enhancement serum are missing; they were taken by Officer Zadi.
When Zadi left, he also showed Reid the potions he took, which were indeed seven C-VII type enhancement potions.
Everything was as usual, and a tranquil atmosphere filled the air.
Reid took out the outermost enhancement potion and examined it carefully; there was nothing wrong with it.
This safe is indestructible; theoretically, no one should be able to sneak in.
Moreover, 'Pete' should still be at his own home right now, and shouldn't be here.
In theory, everything should be fine, but for some reason, Reed still felt uneasy.
He put down the test tube, closed the refrigerator door, and then turned to walk towards the supercomputer on the other side.
The computer's power port flickered with a faint light.
He reached out and turned on the power.
The boot screen appeared as usual.
This is the boot screen during a cold start. Reed always has the habit of shutting down his computer after each use.
It seems that no one has touched this computer.
Everything is normal, there are no problems.
Reed walked back to the metal door, verified his identity, and opened the door.
As the metal door opened, he turned around and glanced once more at the inside of the safe.
Bright lights illuminated every corner of the safe, casting almost no shadows.
In that instant, he suddenly drew his gun and fired at the shadow beneath his feet.
The hot bullet pierced through the forbidden air, struck the shadow beneath him, then bounced off the hard metal ground, struck the wall not far away, and continued to ricochet.
After bouncing several times, the bullet finally exhausted its kinetic energy and fell to the ground.
No?
Reed knew about the abilities of 'Shadow', and the reason why the security doors of the research institute were all set up so that even shadows could not pass through was to guard against this ability.
This ability was the only way Reed could think of to successfully sneak into the safe without attracting attention.
"guessed wrong?"
He muttered to himself, then put his other hand, which wasn't holding a gun, into his pocket.
The metal door was now fully open, and he turned around and walked out.
Just as he stepped across the doorway, he suddenly raised his gun, aimed at the corner of the refrigerator, and pulled the trigger.
Bright flames shot out from the muzzle of the gun.
The scorching bullet pierced through the void.
Red didn't have a way of determining the location of the 'shadow,' but his long-term interaction with it taught him a pattern.
The most unlikely places are often where the enemy hides.
And that position has always been firmly held by him.
They believed that "no one" was the one in question.
He wasn't sure if anyone was standing there, but he could try.
