"Multiple bloodlines?"
The person in charge couldn't help but give him a glance and shook his head, "Theoretically it's possible, but in practice, there's little hope."
"Theory is possible?" Lin Qing asked, "What exactly does that entail?"
The person in charge sighed, "The higher-level genes are especially so. Bloodline Evolution Serum merely provides the opportunity to optimize your own genes using higher-level genes, but it doesn't mean these high-level genes belong to you; they are merely dormant."
"Once you introduce a new bloodline, the two powerful bloodlines will struggle within your body and ultimately cause your genes to spiral out of control."
He glanced at Lin Qing, "If you're lucky, you might end up with cancer; if you're not, turning into a monster or experiencing gene collapse on the spot could happen."
Lin Qing thoughtfully asked, "What if I inject a weaker Bloodline Evolution Serum? Perhaps an Original Level bloodline, then there won't be any fighting, right?"
The person in charge said, "But the weaker bloodline will be directly optimized and devoured by the powerful bloodline to maintain the stability of the dominant genes."
Lin Qing paused slightly.
"Actually, there is only one way to accommodate a new bloodline."
The person in charge said, "That is to develop one bloodline to its limit before you can inject a new Bloodline Evolution Serum, but if you missed the period before Genetic Awakening, the cost of trying to inject a new serum is too high and also quite improbable."
He paused and then shook his head, "After all, developing a bloodline to its limit is incredibly hard, even if you reach the same tier as the life form of that bloodline, it's not possible to exhaust all the genetic abilities of every energy level, let alone reach the same tier."
Lin Qing slowly nodded, reining in his thoughts of combining two bloodlines.
At least, it was impossible in the short term.
But he had anticipated this.
If it were easy to inject multiple types of Bloodline Evolution Serums, reaching a 200% Genetic Optimization Index wouldn't be difficult.
"Are these genetic optimizations all Third Energy Level optimizations?" Lin Qing pointed at the list of genetic enhancements on the tablet and asked.
The person in charge nodded, "Only the stable Third Energy Level genetic optimizations exist; moving to stabilize for the Fourth Energy Level, only Intelligent Star Group could achieve that."
Lin Qing nodded slightly, then asked, "I have already developed the 'Enhancement' genetic ability for my bloodline. This Class A Evolutionary High Energy Radiation bringing enhanced abilities, is it still useful?"
"No use." The person in charge said, "This ability essentially relies on higher energy levels to enhance body conditions."
He reminded, "Since you've injected the Bloodline Evolution Serum, you don't need to look at any serums related to genetic enhancements anymore, there would be a risk of genetic instability starting from two types of genetic enhancements."
Hearing this, Lin Qing couldn't help but recall Luo Wu from the Original Research Institute, whose state was very unstable.
It appeared that Luo Wu might also be in a similar situation?
Lin Qing didn't think further and immediately continued to carefully select.
[C Class High Energy Evolution Radiation: Giant Strength, High-speed Regeneration...]
[D Class High Energy Evolution Radiation: Radium Light Eye, Superpower Sensing, Divine Speed...]
"ABCD class, what's the difference?" Lin Qing asked.
"This is actually a classification from the Apocalypse Period, still in use today."
The person in charge explained, "Class A Evolution Radiation is essentially the 'Enhancement' ability, belonging to the most stable evolution across all aspects; Class B belongs to Mutant Radiation, unpredictable and more like a gamble; Class C is based on one's own inherent traits, strengthening those; Class D then derives new genetic abilities."
Lin Qing suddenly understood.
He immediately said, "Then I'll choose Giant Strength, High-speed Regeneration, and Superpower Sensing."
Actually, he was also quite interested in 'Divine Speed.'
Unfortunately, before Genetic Awakening, one could usually only choose up to three types of evolutionary radiation.
Because each radiation adapted genes increasingly to high-energy radiation, after three times, it would become much less effective.
Only a few people could manage four types.
Despite 'Divine Speed' offering a nice boost in speed, he already had Instantaneous Light, so it wasn't as pressing.
The person in charge reminded, "After three times, it must be after Genetic Awakening to try again, and the cost is enormous, needing three Special Grade Merits for one attempt."
"Confirmed." Lin Qing nodded.
Normally, before Genetic Awakening, the cost of evolutionary radiation was small, just one Special Grade Merit for three attempts.
But after Genetic Awakening, the genes' instinct not wanting to change would resist radiation, making it much harder.
So, the cost would then become ninefold.
"Which evolutionary radiation shall we start with?" the person in charge asked.
"Superpower Sensing," said Lin Qing casually.
The person in charge nodded, "Follow me."
In the enclosed room, walls, ceiling, and floor were all made of pure black materials that isolate radiation.
Lin Qing stood in the center of the room, looking up. The ceiling was fitted with a special device made entirely of transparent material, and inside it was a sky-blue polyhedral crystal, slowly emitting a soft glow, completely enveloping him.
He knew the key to evolutionary radiation lay in this crystal, the device merely controlled it.
He hadn't undergone Genetic Awakening yet, so the crystal only needed to release a small amount of energy to complete the evolution; the consumption would be very low.
If a Genetic Awakened came here, then the crystal's consumption would be ten times as much.
