68 Bullet Time (1/2)

Bullet Time was a physiological phenomenon that was not very well-known.

When the human spirit exceeded a certain limit, their thinking speed, observation ability, and reaction speed would increase greatly. The world around would feel as though it had been slowed down by a slow button; in this state, they could even dodge bullets shot at them.

This was a special state called Bullet Time.

The hormone responsible for causing this increase in nerve activity was adrenaline.

As Feng Lin drank what was likely a perfect-grade Adrenaline Potion, he felt the world slow down to the max. His soul seemed to be in another space that was overlooking the world from God's perspective.

People's movements seemed to come to a halt. The change was slow but orderly.

This was a wonderful feeling. His soul seemed to have exceeded its bounds. He could sense everything in the world, gaining a sense of omniscience.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Feng Lin shook as though he had just awakened from a dream. His soul instantly returned to his body.

After the short scare, he was overwhelmed with shock!

He had actually created a perfect-grade potion.

Feng Lin gasped for breaths one after another, his entire body shaking. Every muscle in his body was tightened with tension and trembling non-stop. He felt as though he was about to collapse.

Bullet Time allowed the user to increase their thinking speed, but the burden on the body was too great. This was not something that could be used for a very long time; otherwise, the body would not be able to bear it. Overusing this ability would lead to the user's collapse.

This was not the potion's side effect, rather it was natural physiology of the human body.

Just like food could provide nutrition for the body without much side effects, if one was to overeat, then the burden on the stomach would be too great. Before long, the stomach would not be able to withstand it, and the person would be dizzy and congested.

The potion from before did not cause any painful sensation at all.

...

Genetic potential - 30%!

Duration time 20 seconds!

...

This large reduction in potential meant that the medicinal properties were 4 folds from the original formula. The duration of effect was even over 2 folds, and the potion had no side effects.

Without a doubt, his enhancements to the potion was another success. He had created a perfect-grade gene potion.

The end resulting potion formula was: Dragonblood flower 36 milliliters, waterjade powder 18 grams, losoto solution 108 milliliters, catalytic cream 12 grams, spirit powder 18 grams, fluid ice 32 milliliters...

Feng Lin silently recorded all the formulas from his experiments. Without any further experiments, he closed his eyes to rest.

His continuous consumption of potions caused a large amount of fatigue to accumulate in his body and spirit. He needed to rest.

However, this scene was irritating for everyone within the busy R&D Department.

”That brat got some nerves! Does he not know team leader Aike hates slackers? He dares sleep in public like this?”

”His mission to improve the potion probably failed. That's why he has given up.”

”That brat has some horrible luck. Who let him question human experiments and offend team leader Aike. He's out of luck!”

...

Those so-called colleagues saw how tired Feng Lin was and sullenly laughed at him.

Feng Lin did not pay them any heed. He observed his own body's changes with surprise.

A gene awakening had occurred due to the continuous stimulation from the potion testing.

Since he kept drinking the Adrenaline Potion, his gene was continuously stimulated. The genetic potential that had been reduced had unknowingly added to 100%. This was the equivalent of one genetic point that could be added to the Adrenaline Gene.

The strengthening tally of Adrenaline Gene had changed from 0 to 1.

This meant that Feng Lin had awakened a new gene—the Adrenaline Gene.

A new golden constellation lit up in the genetic equation's genetic map!

Each golden star represented an awakened gene.

However, this new constellation was far from the location of the Monkey Gene and Stonebirth Gene. It was seemingly out of place.

Feng Lin focused his mind and saw the gene's attributes.
