"Hmm." Ren Zhong responded, "If you hadn’t mentioned it, I really wouldn’t believe such a thing exists, it quite goes against my..."
"Nothing. Never mind, I’ll be off now."
The potion Sun Miao mentioned is called Star Origin Injection Liquid.
It’s a truly fierce thing that can quickly strengthen Professionals below the Fourth Level without death, and almost without side effects, particularly suitable for Mechanical Warriors.
Its specific composition and mechanism of action are unknown, similar to Ruined Beasts, it’s something beyond Ren Zhong’s original scientific views.
The core material of the Star Origin Injection Liquid comes from a special mineral extract.
It can greatly speed up the body’s metabolism, more lasting and comprehensive than adrenaline.
After injection, coupled with a large amount of exercise and nutritional intake, the user’s Physical Index and carrying power can both break through 300 in a very short time.
As for how high it can go, it depends on the Brain-Machine Synchronization Rate and individual talent.
Sun Miao said, the highest someone has increased to over 600 within half a month.
This thing is extremely rare, with an annual global production of less than a thousand units on Source Star.
Although its price is "only" three million, due to its enormous help to new Professionals, it is highly praised.
Its actual market circulation price is so expensive that it can allow a Fifth Level Citizen to buy a small town, turning all town buildings and the scavengers inside into personal property.
Although Ren Zhong didn’t get the actual item, he obtained crucial information.
It’s expensive, and he doesn’t have the purchasing qualification, but as long as it exists, there’s hope.
Then Ren Zhong rode his newly bought motorcycle to the Military Weapon Store, where he received a loan of 12,600 points after tax from Ju Qingmeng.
Then he headed straight to the Never-sleep Nightclub, next to the flea market.
Never-sleep Nightclub is one of the few gathering places for scavengers in the town, serving as a hybrid of dining, nightlife, entertainment, and deep entertainment functions.
It is indeed one of the landmark attractions of Starfire Town, and a pillar of the local cultural industry.
Its main consumer base is the semi-professional scavengers numbering in the thousands, and occasionally, evaluators from faraway places come, drawn by its reputation.
The building of the Never-sleep Nightclub covers nearly 600 square meters across three floors, each with a different purpose.
Compared to other houses in the slums, the little building of Never-sleep carries a completely different vibe, adorned with a burst of neon lights and colors.
An enormous sign made of slightly chaotic neon strips almost covers the entire street-facing wall.
Every sunset, when the twin moons rise, the neon lights ignite, lighting up half the street.
Intense music plays, continuing until the crowd disperses at half-past nine.
Ren Zhong’s "intimate good teammate" Ou Youning is also a frequent visitor here.
A certain anonymous person known as Ou used to be only somewhat famous here, but now, with Zheng Tian’s team’s rise, he has become quite a celebrity.
Unfortunately, according to rumors, just as a certain unidentified Ou got on the right track of life, he gave it all up, leaving the Never-sleep owner regretful about losing a big client, utterly dejected.
When Ren Zhong arrived, it was already night.
As he pushed open the door, the smells of sweat, gunpowder, sour cheap liquor, and strange perfumes assaulted his nose.
Ren Zhong frowned, as a flamboyantly dressed woman revealing a large white area in front of her chest came up to him.
She lowered her voice, "You’re the gentleman Mr. Ou mentioned, right?"
"I’ve prepared a private room for you, and the person you asked to meet is already in Room 17."
Ren Zhong greeted her and instantly transferred 5 Contribution Points before heading straight to Room 17.
Inside, waiting for him, was a chubby, moustached middle-aged man—none other than Wang Zhaofu, the wandering black market merchant.
Introduced by Zheng Tian, the two have now become at least half-acquainted.
"Mr. Ren, the things you wanted are ready. They’re all in the Qingfeng Heavy Truck in the parking lot. Here’s the key."
Wang Zhaofu squinted slightly, "Before handing over the goods to you, may I ask, out of curiosity, what a Second Level Professional like you needs such things for?"
He was already so plump that when he squinted, his eyes were nearly invisible.
Ren Zhong’s face remained unchanged, "The whole town knows I’ve been working in the abandoned mine lately. Who knows, I might even go to Bone Valley soon. You’re aware of what happened at Bone Valley recently, right?"
"Of course, my information is even more up-to-date than you think."
"I’m worried about encountering another Descending Demon Baby, so I’m thinking of getting a fierce thing to be prepared, does that reason suffice?"
