Miracle Root's.
As the name suggests, it is referred to as the root of the miracle. Although its appearance was like a sparkling black worm, but it was indeed very important for the survival of mankind in the apocalypse.
Through Miracle Root, humans can gain power from other creatures and make it their own. Of course, there are still many limitations to its use. Such as the type and amount that can be used by humans.
Miracle Root is obtained from various types of living things with special categories. There were zombies, mutated beasts, even alien creatures.
The way it is used .. is very simple.
"Are you sure about all this, Ark?"
Hearing Jay's question, Ark smiled.
"Trust me. You just need to remember ... maintain awareness."
Ark looked at Jay who was lying on the table, naturally, still wearing all his clothes. Ark held Jay's left hand and slightly injured his wrist. Then, he placed the Miracle Root right on the wound.
When Miracle Root hits Jay's blood, it squirms. It went straight into Jay's body through the wound.
Sensing it digging into his flesh, Jay gritted his teeth in pain. Meanwhile, Ark watched quietly.
Miracle Root could only be used for at most half an hour after the creature was killed. After that, Miracle Root could not be used at all because it had 'died'.
Every time it broke through the boundary, a human could take out a single Miracle Root. It was just that, for the first time, the Miracle Root they had taken out had to be of the zombie type.
Simple reason. Because among all the creatures, the one most similar to humans are zombies. So it is best suited for humans to be able to adapt to evolution.
Many experiments use the Miracle Root of mutated beasts or alien beings. It's just that, there were absolutely no survivors. That means, there is only one way to start, which is to use the Miracle Root of a zombie.
That means, the way humans evolved was to consume food and potions until it broke through the body's restrictions. After that, they would use Miracle Root. Then, they returned to training, hunting, and consuming potions until they broke through the next boundary. Everything will keep repeating.
Only, the higher the limit, the longer it takes and the harder it is to break.
Of course, the process of merging it was very simple. But that doesn't mean it's easy. Conversely, combining Miracle Root was extremely difficult and painful.
Miracle Root will drill in the body, digging out the heart. Fused to the heart muscle, then finally dissolved and spread itself throughout the body.
Seeing Jay struggling like he was possessed, Ark just kept watching him. He is responsible for keeping Jay conscious. After all, this merger was not without risks.
If there was a mistake, in the merging, there might be parts of the human body that would turn into the form of the absorbed Miracle Root being.
That's also the reason that another path has been established for humans to reach a new evolutionary route.
First, just rely on the potion to ride. After that, use Miracle Root. While the last additional way is the way that is considered wrong for most of humanity.
Chimeras.
Yep. Like the name of a mythological creature that has a combination of various living things in one body.
Since using Miracle Root could make them strong, many humans were crazy enough to combine the bodies of other creatures with their bodies. Replacing the legs with faster legs, replacing the hands with stronger hands, and many other crazy things.
Of course, Ark who once adhered to the right path did not want to turn his body into another creature.
It's just that, at the final stage, Ark himself did not consider that the way was wrong. Rather, it was another way for people who wanted power faster without high talent. Of course, in exchange, the risk of failure is also great.
After all, in the final stage, Ark clearly remembered that many humans could no longer be called human if only by their appearance.
Therefore, now Ark no longer cared too much about their appearance. What matters is their soul and mind. Whether these people deserve to be called human or not.
About three hours later, Jay's merger with Miracle Root was finally complete.
Jay stands. Sensing that his attack power, defense, and speed had multiplied.
"Ark ... this?"
"Congratulations. It seems you succeeded."
"This ... This is?"
According to body statistics, now Jay is clearly stronger compared to Ark.
"Because you know this thing is useful, why did you give it to me, Ark?"
"..."
Hearing Ark's words, Jay was silent. He realized that his best friend was actually on purpose. It was simply impossible to establish himself as a test subject. Merely, he did not discuss it because Ark had no intention of talking about it.
Of course, Ark knew that Miracle Root was very useful to Jay. Especially, the ability of the red zombie.
"Do you feel anything special, Jay? Like when your talent awakens?"
Hearing that, Jay closed his eyes. A while later, a thin steam appeared around the young man. Opening his eyes, Jay looked surprised.
"I think, my strength, speed, and defense once again multiplied. However, I think this condition makes me very tired very quickly."
"Stop it."
Ark said in a relaxed tone.
Yep. The ability of the zombie is to increase strength, speed, and defense in a short time. In fact, most special zombies only had simple abilities.
For example, adding temporary strength, temporary speed, or temporary defense. Just one, and not as thoroughly as the red zombies that Ark and Jay fought before.
The red zombie was even already very strong in its early stages, and it was definitely even stronger if left alone.
Actually, the reason Ark knew so much about the red zombie was not because of its power. The real reason is ...
The Miracle Root of those red zombies belonged to Ark in his previous life!
Is correct. Actually, that extraordinary ability was also the reason why Ark was able to develop quite quickly in his previous life. This time, he gave it to his best friend. In addition to repaying the debt of gratitude, he had another reason that is ...
Ark knew the location of Miracle Root which was the most suitable for himself!
So, in this life, Ark did not want to regret it anymore. He wanted to develop in the most suitable way, becoming stronger than in his previous life instead of choosing the same route and just speeding up the process.
"Thank you very much, Ark."
Hearing that from Jay, Ark lifted the corner of his lips.
"For what? It was just an experiment. If you become a monster or a zombie when it fails, I will just finish you off.
Besides, because of this experiment, I got information on how to strengthen myself, right?"
"..."
Ark's words made Jay shrug his shoulders. The man didn't want to talk about it anymore. So, Jay turned the question around.
"Where are we going after this?"
"Back."
"Aren't you trying to find a special zombie like this?"
"No." Ark shook his head. "Are they everywhere and easy to find?"
"..."
Seeing how Jay was speechless, Ark patted her on the shoulder.
"Forget over. We go back and practice. Once you can control your powers well, we'll try to find a special zombie that suits me."
Looking towards Ark, Jay nodded with a serious expression.
"Good!"
Hearing that Jay was still willing to follow the instructions from him even though he was now stronger, Ark heaved a sigh of relief. It seems that his best friend is indeed not the type that is easily lulled by power and power.
Ark the same at once did not choose wrong because ...
In order to obtain a Miracle Root suitable for him, Ark needed help from Jay!
