Game Universe: Awakening and Enhancing Everything at the Start

Chapter 57 Comparable to a Divine Artifact? Surpassing a Divine Artifact!

Huang Hong took out the space capsule and played with it in his hand for a while. He had already enhanced this space item to a rare quality. Apart from the increased storage space, there was no other difference.

Storing items in the space capsule without loading it is quite troublesome. Now that Huang Hong has the transformation ability of the Iron Man armor, most supplies can be placed in the vehicle. He only needs to put some infrequently used equipment and props, as well as emergency items in the space capsule. So, as long as it is sufficient for now, he does not plan to continue to upgrade it.

After putting away the space capsule, Huang Hong took out three other items: the Old Gourd (Rare), a Physique Development Potion, and a Potential Activation Potion.

These three items are all of rare quality and definitely need to be enhanced. The [Old Gourd (Rare)] requires 10000 source energy, the physique development potion requires 2000 source energy, and the potential activation potion requires 3500 source energy. Huang Hong has 20000 source energy left, which is enough.

The only thing to consider now is which potion to put into the spring of the [Old Gourd (Rare)].

Only one type of potion can be placed in the spring, and once placed, it cannot be removed. If you want to replace it with a new potion, the previous potion will inevitably be damaged.

Physique development potions can improve physical attributes, but excessive use can lead to drug resistance; potential activation potions can stimulate one's own potential, but can only be used after reaching the maximum racial level, otherwise they will be harmful and useless. Moreover, although repeated use will still have an effect, it will consume a lot of one's own life force. Among all the side effects, life reduction is the least of them.

After much deliberation, Huang Hong decided to choose the physique development potion and treat the potential activation potion as a one-time use item.

Although the potential activation potion could provide an all-around boost, and although Huang Hong doesn't care about expending some life force right now, strengthening the potential activation potion to a rare quality would definitely greatly increase its effectiveness. Given Huang Hong's current small stature, taking it once or twice more might drain his life force.

Conversely, physique-enhancing drugs offer a steady return.

After making the decision, Huang Hong weighed the gourd in his hand and directly used the enhancement ability.

10000 units of energy transformed into streams of light and flowed into the gourd, gradually replacing the green light with blue.

[Old Gourd (Rare Item)]

Affixes: container, restore

Quality: Rare

Capacity: 4/4 (Restores 1 unit of capacity every 50 minutes)

Attribute (Rare): Connects to an extraordinary spring, continuously producing clear and sweet spring water. Drinking it will restore a small amount of physical strength.

Loading ability: Solidification, can solidify any type of medicine in the spring, so that the resulting spring water has 40% of the effect of that medicine.

After being upgraded to rare quality, the attributes of the [Old Gourd (Rare)] have been significantly improved. The maximum capacity has increased from 3 to 4, the time to restore 1 capacity has been reduced by 10 minutes, and the attribute that originally restored 'trace' stamina after drinking has now been reduced to a small amount. The solidified medicine that previously could only exert 30% of its effect has now increased to 40%.

If we calculate it this way, no matter what kind of medicine Huang Hong solidifies in the [Old Gourd (Rare)], he can automatically obtain 11 times the efficacy of the solidified medicine every day (Note).

Upon reaching this conclusion, Huang Hong was utterly stunned. In other words, after solidifying the physique development potion into the [Old Gourd (Rare)], he only needed to wait three days, which was equivalent to drinking 33 bottles of physique development potion.

In the future, once Huang Hong obtains more and higher-quality potions, the [Old Gourd (Rare)] will continue to provide value.

In a sense, the [Old Gourd (Rare)] was almost as powerful as a divine artifact for Huang Hong!

Of course, this only applies to Huang Hong, since loading is a unique ability derived from the enhancement of all things.

Once the spring water in the gourd leaves the gourd, its effects will immediately dissipate. Huang Hong has not yet tried to have other people drink the spring water from the gourd to see if they can achieve the same effect as him.

(Please remember the website 20 ...

However, these are not things that Huang Hong needs to consider right now; even if he were to plan ahead, it would be too early.

Next, Huang Hong further enhanced the two medicines, raising them to rare quality. Their loading capacity was similar to that of Yunnan Baiyao, allowing them to maintain their effects continuously, but this would also deplete the medicine itself. The only advantage was that the absorption of the medicine in this way would not lead to drug resistance.

After being upgraded to rare quality, the efficacy of the two potions increased by one or two times, but the upper limit did not increase.

After solidifying the constitution development agent into the [Old Gourd (Rare)], Huang Hong immediately loaded the latter.

Instantly, he felt a continuous surge of power flowing into his body, spreading to his limbs and bones, much more turbulent than before.

Nourished by this power, Huang Hong felt every cell in his body cheering and greedily absorbing this nourishment, giving him inexhaustible strength.

Huang Hong boarded the off-road vehicle, and from then on, he no longer needed to measure the earth on foot.

He uploaded the map information recorded on his watch to the off-road vehicle, and then he didn't need to worry about it much. The off-road vehicle would automatically follow the marked route and would also issue warnings if it encountered danger.

Huang Hong lay leisurely in the driver's seat, even in the mood to take a nap.

However, an hour later, Huang Hong vaguely sensed something was wrong. The effects of the body development drug in his body not only did not subside, but instead accumulated more and more, and even began to show signs of becoming excessive.

An hour later, Huang Hong looked helpless. He got up from the driver's seat and went to the back of the SUV, where a small platform had been specially transformed. He started practicing his punches on the platform, hoping to accelerate the digestion of the medicine in his body.

It makes sense, really. Physique-enhancing drugs are meant to be used gradually. As the quality improves, the effects become stronger. Huang Hong's current pace is equivalent to drinking one vial every two hours or so. It would be strange if the drug didn't have an overdose.

Several hours later, Huang Hong had to temporarily cancel the loading of the [Old Gourd (Rare)]. He needed to rest for a while, otherwise he was afraid that the accumulated medicinal power in his body would cause him to burst.

After traveling for about three days, Huang Hong finally reached the edge of the desolate area. However, he did not rush to continue his journey, but instead looked at his hands and fell into deep thought.

Logically speaking, even if he occasionally canceled the [Old Gourd (Rare)] due to excessive drug effects over three days, he should have consumed at least twenty-seven or twenty-eight doses of physique development potion.

But what about drug resistance? What happened to the promised drug resistance??

So far, the medicinal effects of the [Old Gourd (Rare)] have remained stable, showing no signs of weakening.

Huang Hong carefully read the attributes of the [Old Gourd (Rare)], and when he saw the phrase "makes the produced spring water have 40% of the effects of this medicine," a thought occurred to him...

Does this mean that the spring water produced by the gourd doesn't represent the medicine itself, and therefore there's no possibility of drug resistance?

If that's the case, doesn't it mean that Huang Hong can use a physique-developing potion to raise his physique attribute to 15 points?

If before, Huang Hong considered the [Old Gourd (Rare)] to be merely comparable to a divine artifact, now even if a real divine artifact were presented, he wouldn't trade it!
