Limitless Potential!
Gene trading in the Great Cosmos Federation was an open business. It was also an important method for interstellar overlords to use for colonization.
The cost of hiring good help from outstanding people was very expensive. Usually, only during the early period when the interstellar overlord was building his foundation would he choose to do so. In the later period, after the overlord had mature military might, they would naturally begin to probe and explore space for signs of other star systems with life and proceed with colonizing any civilizations they discovered.
Naturally, there were also extremely poor overlords like Xiye who tried to con the indigenous people into signing contracts.
But no matter which type, they all needed the support of a gene bank.
The genes of the Cosmos Federation were all excellent genes collected by them for millions of eras. There were a variety of powerful characteristics and evolution abilities in them, and these genes weren’t something ordinary people of a backward planet could compare to. If the overlord wanted to rapidly expand his power, using gene transplantation to carry out biological modifications was the most effective method to raise the basic quality of their subjects!
When Xiye left back then, he bought a vast quantity of genes and stored them in a gene bank. But because of how poor he was, the genes were all extremely inferior. The green titan gene was one of those...
The green titan with its tall built, great muscle density, and high-strength physique was extremely suitable for the vast majority of labor at the base. Many poor overlords would use this gene as their first choice to manufacture miners and base soldiers.
The operations went very smoothly, so smoothly that Xiye somewhat didn’t dare to believe it!
It was one thing for that young fellow to succeed. But the two baldies also smoothly completed the gene transplantation and the absorption capability actually reached a figure so high – 90%?
After the data came out, Xiye even suspected whether his eyes were dazzled!
“COOL!” Little Chen, who just walked out from the bio-cultivation device, looked at the throbbing muscles of his body that were akin to the hulk. His eyes were filled with wonder.
He clenched his fist slightly, and the green veins on his arm bulged. He sensed boundless strength coursing through his body. In fact, he even felt that if one gave him a steel bar right now, he could effortlessly wring that into pieces. Hence, he surveyed the surroundings and eagerly wanted to find something to test his strength!
“Old Yang, do you feel it?” A baldy who walked out later suddenly had a headful of black hair after the modifications… He joyfully stared at his new body as he excitedly spoke, “This increases all our body attributes, and the mental connection is too smooth. There’s completely no sense of disharmony at all!”
In the virtual world, for the leveling-up games that were dominating the market, the players could increase their attributes in the game via leveling up or changing jobs. However, the feel they gave to the players wasn’t genuine. For example, if their strength attribute increased, there would only be a change in the numbers. The players couldn’t feel any realistic experience.
Only a few consummate-level games had tried to integrate this realistic sensation into the mental perception of the players. From there, they could allow players to have more genuine playing experience. But in truth, this technology wasn’t that mature yet. Wanting to adjust the mental perception or to hypnotize players so they could feel stronger and faster wasn’t so simple. Because the technology was not that developed, it would often give players a weird feeling.
But this experience they felt now was completely different. The mental perception and sense they felt seemed to be perfectly complete. It was like their own physical strength had truly risen. This feeling was too wondrous!!
Old Yang behind them had now become a tall and imposing green titan after the modification. He stared at his own body in shock as he stirred himself up with excitement. “This is definitely a technology that surpasses everything in the current market. I’m afraid this game wasn’t created by a private game designer. It might be produced by a leading game studio with huge financial might to back it up!”
The three of them were stunned by the technology in the game, while Xiye was shocked by their body quality.
If it wasn’t for the fact that there were outsiders around, he even wanted to remove his helmet and use the metallic parts at the side to knock his head and see whether he was dreaming or not.
A 90% adaptability rate!
(How is this possible!!!)
Even for the Westanya People who were reportedly claimed to have the highest adaptability rate in the Great Federation, when they used this type of pre-processed green titan gene, their adaptability rate would only be 15%, right?
For other races with a bad adaptability rate, it was already considered not bad if their adaptability rate was at 0.5% after their first operation. What sort of concept was 90%?
Under the monopoly of the number four overlord of the Federation, Hego Tangerian, a single person from Westanya was already sold for $10,000 deity dollars. This was comparable to a full twenty years of this overlord’s living expenses!
90%...if this spreads out, the people on D-Planet would definitely fetch a heavenly price if they were sold!
And there were actually billions of people like this here?
This already wasn’t a stroke of luck that one could encounter by stepping on dogshit. His ancestors must have gained enough karmic luck for him because they had saved the universe, right?
“Noble overlord!” Little Chen excitedly spoke, “What do we need to do next?”
‘Go and do mining…’ Xiye really wanted to say this, but he felt something was wrong. Using green titans that had a 90% adaptability rate to mine?
How many overlords could be so extravagant to do something like this? What a waste of resources!
Many newbies might not understand why the green titan had the name ‘titan’, yet they were the first choice as miners for many. But for those who lived in the Great Federation’s territories before, they understood this logic. Green titans weren’t a low-grade race, on the contrary, their level was actually very high. For high-level green titans, they would be hot favorites in arenas or in the military. However, their weakness was obvious. The price to nurture them was too high!
The value of a gene wasn’t just based on the species. One had to evaluate it based on the overall situation. For the mature green titans, they were elite warriors, but for those with only 1% bloodline, they would at most have slightly more strength and thicker muscles when compared to ordinary humans.
If they wanted to evolve, a gargantuan amount of genetic evolution medicine would be needed. This resulted in the fact that only the arenas with huge financial backings behind them could do so. There were very few people who were willing to spend so much to nurture green titans. And for those federation’s liberals, if their family wasn’t extremely wealthy, they wouldn’t spend money to walk on the evolutionary path of green titans. With the same amount of resources, it would be better to invest in the paths of wood elves, Rune Clan, or the Thunder Clan.
These circumstances caused the value of the green titan gene to drop again and again. In the end, green titan genes became the cheap goods that poor overlords would buy to use as miners.
In truth, there were many genes in the Federation that were like the green titan. Their prices fell to the bottom because of their extremely low adaptability rate. This led to many biological characteristics from the various genes not being able to be unleashed to their full potential, resulting in them becoming extremely cheap.
“Sir Overlord?” Seeing that the overlord wasn’t replying, Little Chen curiously asked again.
Xiye stared at Little Chen with his perfectly sculpted muscles. He silently mused, “This quality...even if I hide the fact that they have a 90% adaptability rate, if I sold them at $10,000 deity dollars, there are many arenas that would jump at the opportunity to buy them, right? And a single green titan gene only costs $1.50. What sort of profitable business was this?”
However, he knew that he couldn’t contact any arena. Once this treasure trove was exposed, he would be blasted so badly that not even dregs would be left. He fully understood the saying ‘an innocent gets into trouble because of his wealth’.
Why could Hego monopolize the business dealing with the Westanya people? Other than the fact that he was lucky enough to discover this indigenous race, he also had huge military might behind him which led to no one dared to try anything funny!
He, Xiye, was just an initial-level deity that had no subjects. Even if a group of dark goblins came, they might even be able to beat him to death!
Since he couldn’t sell them and his base was at the most primitive and original state, under such a situation, it seemed that he could only tell them to go and do some mining...
How extravagant!
Xiye sighed in his heart, but he maintained a solemn expression. He spoke in a heavy voice, “Due to your combined quality being low, all of you are only qualified to be miners. But as long as you work hard and have outstanding performance, once your accumulation reaches a certain degree, you can apply to become a warrior of this Overlord!”
“The starting quest is mining?” The three of them were startled and silently mused, “The beginning threshold is so simple?”
It was very rare for the games nowadays to have such a slow tempo. However, they could also understand. Although fast-paced games were now popular in the market, they were usually games with no real content, only leveling up and targeting the players’ money. For true AAA games, their starting tempo was usually slow to attract players. Although many players didn’t really like this at the start, as long as they calmed their hearts down, the playability of the game was extremely high.
This game should be a production from some gaming studio with huge financial backing and wasn’t a semi-finished product. Someone had to hurry and rewrite the review. However, this game was so interesting. The two veterans in this industry naturally had to stay behind and continue experiencing it. Hence, a thing like the job to rewrite the review would be handed down to Little Chen who was less experienced than them...
The leader instructed Little Chen with a straight-face, and he had no choice but to go back to work despite ten thousand hints of unwillingness in his heart. He wasn’t able to remain behind in this place to happily mine things.
“Du! The green titan genes are personal properties of Overlord Xiye and cannot be transported out without the Overlord’s consent!”
“Eh?” Little Chen was stunned when he heard such words from the transfer device. He didn’t really understand them.
“Players please enter the biological cabin and revert back to your original form!”
Following the instructions, Little Chen entered the biological cabin. A few minutes later, his consciousness blurred and when he regained his senses, he discovered that he had already returned to his original body. As for the body of that tall green titan, it was now quietly lying down in the biological cabin!
“Wow!” Little Chen involuntarily marveled when he took note of how similar the features of the green titan in the cabin was when compared to his face. This was simply too real!
“However, why do they make the exit procedure so difficult? It’s as though this green titan body really can be brought back to D-Planet from this virtual world…” Little Chen involuntarily ridiculed.
However, he wasn’t able to see the strange look in Overlord Xiye’s eyes when he was looking at him from behind.
