Chapter 316: Technical Solution to the Side Effects of Superpower Serums

Inside the Clarence Organic Life Research Institute's laboratory, various testing and research equipment were lined up, each with its own unique functions.

Many of these devices had input information components, and once connected to the network, they became the eyes and ears of Xavier Matrix.

These input information components weren't limited to cameras or audio devices; they could be spectrum inputs or various scanning devices.

Most of the equipment couldn't provide useful information on its own, but when the inputs from multiple devices were combined, they formed a comprehensive sensory system.

As a result, the surveillance footage from the laboratory appeared on the vehicle window light screen, complete with audio.

"Analyze the components of this serum and provide me with an iterative solution for its effects," Pharaoh Wang demanded.

Lu Heng couldn't help but widen his eyes at the request.

Admittedly, having the Sikes Civilization's research institutions analyze the serum and provide iterative solutions was indeed the most direct and effective approach.

Stealing technological information couldn't compare to this method in terms of efficiency.

Although humans could digest technological information and then advance their technology, this digestion process required time. Furthermore, a breakthrough in a single technology wouldn't yield high-tech products.

Every high-tech product required the support of an entire industrial system, encompassing materials, processing, numerical control, and systems, with countless technologies needing breakthroughs.

Only after all the critical technological nodes were overcome could such high-tech products be obtained.

Therefore, even with access to Sikes' technological information, digestion and implementation would still take a considerable amount of time.

Moreover, the human civilization was at the 0.8-level, and even if they acquired the technology of a 1.6-level civilization, they couldn't directly utilize 1.6-level technology.

Human industry needed to progress step by step, moving from 0.8 to 0.9, then to 1.0, and so on.

Only a few technologies allowed for grade-skipping, enabling the adoption of more advanced solutions without going through intermediate technologies.

Clearly, the Creator Organization lacked the patience for the slow process of digesting technological information and sought immediate access to the most effective products.

A researcher from Clarence began operating a substance composition analysis device, placing the superpower serum provided by Pharaoh Wang into it for analysis.

Soon, various analysis data appeared on the laboratory's light screen.

Pharaoh Wang fixed his gaze on the information displayed, even though the Sikes language was loaded into the system, but due to the highly technical nature of the data, he couldn't comprehend the meaning behind the characters even if he could read them.

He asked directly, "How is this serum?"

The Clarence researcher responded in a mechanical electronic voice, "This is a solution containing free-state source energy with a source energy content of 5.31% and water content of 93.21%, along with other components..."

Pharaoh Wang, uninterested in these details, cut to the chase, "Get to the point. How effective is it, and how can we improve it?"

The Clarence researcher pointed to a set of data on the light screen and replied, "This solution will affect the cellular source energy concentration balance of organic life, leading to reduced source energy conversion in cells, making it unsuitable for injection into organic life cells."

Pharaoh Wang fell silent for two seconds after hearing this response.

The reply was more mechanical, but it essentially described the side effects of the superpower serum.

Pharaoh Wang then asked, "Is there a way to eliminate the side effects?"

The Clarence researcher, after processing the question through a computational system, replied, "If by side effects you mean the disruption of cellular source energy concentration balance, it can be eliminated by injecting a free-state source energy decomposition agent."

This answer was clearly not what the Creator Organization was seeking.

They desired a serum without side effects.

However, the solution proposed by the Clarence researcher involved injecting the superpower serum and then administering a free-state source energy decomposition agent to eliminate the side effects.

Of course, once the injected source energy was decomposed, it meant the superpower serum's effects were nullified.

While the side effects were indeed gone, the serum's ability to enhance combat power was also negated.

So, were the side effects truly resolved?

Pharaoh Wang fell silent for another two seconds, his voice even more somber, "I want the technology to iterate this serum and produce one without side effects."

The Clarence researcher also paused for two seconds before responding, "The cellular characteristics of organic life are fixed. Source energy acquired from the external environment, without cellular conversion, will inevitably have side effects.

"Iterative technology can only reduce side effects, not eliminate them entirely, unless we approach it from the perspective of altering cellular structure."

Pharaoh Wang probed further, "What are the specific methods?"

The Clarence researcher explained, "The first method is to undergo mechanical transformation and install a superpower serum energy extraction module to extract and utilize the source energy from the serum.

"However, the energy extracted through this method has a conversion efficiency of only 37.2% compared to high-energy batteries, making it unsuitable for commercialization."

Pharaoh Wang was left speechless once more.

With his extensive knowledge, he could understand the researcher's explanation.

Indeed, the solution proposed by Clarence Researcher did effectively address the issue.

At its core, the Super Ability Serum is a type of energy-providing potion, but the energy it provides is Origin Energy.

This method of energy provision can be absorbed and utilized by the cells of Organic Life, but it comes with irreversible side effects.

Clarence's solution suggests transforming Organic Life into Mechanical Life, then using mechanical modules to absorb and utilize the Origin Energy from the Super Ability Serum.

This solution, without a doubt, perfectly addresses the side effects of the Super Ability Serum.

Since there are no cells involved, there are naturally no side effects.

However, this solution is akin to an unnecessary action.

The energy conversion efficiency of mechanical modules when absorbing the Super Ability Serum is only one-third that of high-energy batteries.

If everything is going to be mechanically transformed, wouldn't it be better to just use batteries directly?

Pharaoh Wang took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and asked, "Are there any other solutions?"

Clarence Researcher remained silent for two seconds before responding, "Yes, the second solution is to replace the cells of the organism.

"There is a life form in the Abyss that can absorb external Origin Energy without any side effects.

"By transplanting the cells of this Abyssal organism into the body and injecting them into the transplanted limbs and organs, it is possible to eliminate the side effects."

Upon hearing this answer, Pharaoh Wang fell silent once again.

In reality, while transplanting the cells of an Abyssal organism into the body may cause psychological resistance, if it can grant infinite power, it is a compromise worth considering.

If transplanting an arm of an Abyssal organism allows for unlimited injections of the Super Ability Serum, instantly elevating one to god-like status, then the price is worth paying.

Pharaoh Wang inquired further, "What is this Abyssal organism?"

Clarence Researcher answered truthfully, "The Abyssal Tumor. The cells of this Abyssal organism lack the ability to convert Origin Energy. They can devour all organic matter to regenerate cells and utilize all absorbed energy.

"Therefore, after injecting the Super Ability Serum, the cells of the Abyssal Tumor can acquire the Origin Energy from the potion and use it to regenerate the body or launch attacks."

Pharaoh Wang was silenced once more.

Indeed, injecting the Super Ability Serum into an Abyssal Tumor does not cause side effects because it inherently lacks the ability to convert Origin Energy.

The mitochondria in human cells can convert Origin Energy through processes like digestion and energy absorption.

Consequently, when the Super Ability Serum is injected, the body's cells perceive a high enough level of Origin Energy and cease their conversion process, leading to a halt in their functionality.

Over time, the efficiency of the mitochondria in converting Origin Energy decreases, and when the injections stop, the body's Origin Energy level drops, eventually resulting in a decline in energy levels.

The Abyssal Tumor, on the other hand, is straightforward; it lacks the ability to convert Origin Energy, so there is no issue with the mitochondria's conversion efficiency decreasing.

The amount of Origin Energy injected is the amount that can be utilized, and no Origin Energy is produced by the organism itself.

Clarence Researcher's solution does indeed address the side effects of the Super Ability Serum, but they are all impractical.

Strictly speaking, transplanting an Abyssal Tumor is a barely viable solution.

As long as humans can control the Abyssal Tumor, transplanting these terrifying cells into the body is an option.

If the transplant is successful, one can inject the Super Ability Serum into the Abyssal Tumor cells, and the amount injected will determine the available Origin Energy.

The higher the energy level of the injections, the higher the energy level the Abyssal Tumor cells can release.

This is indeed a seemingly feasible solution.

However, the Abyssal Tumor is a dangerous entity that, if uncontrolled, can infinitely regenerate and even consume entire planets of organic matter.

Can human technological capabilities control such a terrifying entity as the Abyssal Tumor? The Creator Organization, while ruthless in its pursuit of goals, is not insane.

Clearly, transplanting an Abyssal Tumor is not their desired solution.

After a long silence, Pharaoh Wang asked again, "Are there any other solutions?"

This time, Clarence Researcher responded with an electronic voice that carried emotion, "Within my cognitive scope, there are no solutions to completely eliminate the side effects of the potion. The best that can be done is to reduce the side effects through iteration."

Pharaoh Wang thought for a moment and said, "Then give me the solution to minimize side effects, and make it the optimal one."

Clarence Researcher acknowledged the request, "Alright, the system is analyzing and calculating the optimal solution. The technical consultation fee for this proposal is 2.3 million Galactic Circle Currency..."

He even quoted the technical consultation fee.

However, he quickly added, "Since you are engaged in robbery, there is no need to pay the consultation fee. But this fee will be used as a basis for judgment. The calculation is complete. How would you like to receive the technical solution?"

"Store it here," Pharaoh Wang said, handing over the quantum storage device.
