041 Mermaid Tears with Incredible Effects

There was a hint of pride in Song Chi's eyes as he pretended to be just the right amount of confident, portraying the pride of a lucky man who had accidentally discovered the more powerful potion hidden behind this genetic potion shop.

He quietly glanced around behind him. When he saw no one, he leaned into Gore's ear and whispered:

"This is an enhanced version of the genetic optimization potion, and its effect is ten times more potent than the genetic potion in front of us. I spent a lot of money to buy one before, and the effect was simply intoxicating. Unfortunately, this store has special regulations. Each person can only buy one at most, otherwise, I would have bought them all."

Suddenly, Gore seemed like a rabbit whose tail had been stepped on and almost jumped up.

"What, it's ten times more effective than the genetically optimized potion? Is there really such an enhanced potion?"

As if in response to him, the text on the light screen in the center of the shop changed again.

[There are currently only nine advanced genetic potions left, and their effects are indeed far superior to ordinary genetic optimization potions.]

Along with this text, nine fluorescent blue tube potions with more exquisite packaging appeared on the counter.

Bo!

One of the nine blue-tube potions was opened, and a faint medicinal fragrance spread out. Although it was sealed again in an instant, Gore, who took a sip, suddenly felt that all the cells in his body were cheering. At the same time, his bloodline (gene) that had been revised once again showed signs of faint recovery.

Instinct told Gore that the advanced genetic optimization potion in front of him could greatly enhance his bloodline. Just one might not be enough to completely restore it to the king-level bloodline at its peak, but if two or three were used, it was definitely possible to revive half of the king-level bloodline.

Thinking of this, he suddenly spoke loudly.

"Please be sure to keep these nine advanced genetic optimization potions for me. I will be back soon."

Seeing such a big reaction, Song Chi remained calm, but the light curtain in the middle of the store changed again.

[Advanced genetic optimization potions are expensive to make and are scarce in quantity. Only deep-water clam beads that are at least a thousand years old can be exchanged.]

Gore glanced hastily and quickly turned around, leaving the market faster than before.

…

In the inner palace of Conch Island, the leader of the Tongge Tribe swung his fish tail violently, and a powerful current spread in all directions. The pressure of the second-order creature was particularly terrifying.

"Absurd, what do you think a thousand-year-old deep-water clam is? Or do you think..."

Before he could finish roaring, Gore directly took out more than thirty basic genetic optimization potions and handed them to his father.

When the leader of the Tongge Tribe took a basic genetic optimization potion, opened his mouth, and took a whiff, the next second, he had the same reaction as Gore before. A light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and the exhausted blood in his body seemed rejuvenated.

"Is this the potion you were talking about? It actually has such an effect."

"Are you sure there are more advanced potions that are ten times more effective than this?"

Gore nodded heavily, his attitude extremely affirmative.

The leader of the Tongge Tribe held the potion in his hand tightly. After pondering for a while, he looked at Gore again.

"This matter is a God-given opportunity for our Tongge Tribe. Since you are sure, then go ahead and redeem it. However, I don't have the Millennium Deep Water Clam Pearl in my hands now. You can try it with this."

"Remember, this item is extremely precious. Try to exchange for as many advanced potions as possible."

…

In Heaven's Market, when Gore returned, Song Chi focused his attention on the genetic medicine shop again.

Hearing Gore's answer, he frowned, feeling greatly disappointed.

"There are no thousand-year-old deep-water clam beads. In that case, you won't be able to redeem this advanced genetic optimization potion."

Just as he was about to control the virtual light curtain in the store to reply, Gore took out an item.

"Although there are no thousand-year-old deep-water clam beads, the value of this thing is even greater. It was bred by a mermaid, which is rare to see in thousands of years in my mermaid tribe. It is called 'Mermaid Tears' by other creatures."

As he said that, he placed the so-called Mermaid Tears on the counter in the shop.

Then he continued to add:

"This drop of Mermaid Tears was bred by my ancestor, a third-level mermaid. It can promote the transformation of the life levels of most creatures in the Star Sea."

When the crystalline pearl appeared, Song Chi's entire attention was focused on it.

Mermaid Tears—he was very familiar with this. It was one of the few currently known things that could provide an additional success rate for the upgrade of the Fire Seed Airship.

According to what Gore said, this drop of Mermaid Tears was bred by a third-level mermaid, which means that it could also improve the success rate of advancement for third-level fireships and below.

Upgrading from the first level to the second level increased by 10%.

The second level upgrade to the third level increased by 5%.

Although these numbers might not seem large, for every Xinhuo captain about to start promotion, it was definitely the most important thing second only to their lives.

And now Song Chi needed this item. The success rate of his mother's Dragonfly upgrade was too low. Even though his father was trying his best to find a solution, it was not optimistic.

If he could get a treasure that improved the success rate, his father would have given it to his mother long ago. So why delay until now? After all, the titanium crystal was not yet available.

Therefore, he had to get this Mermaid Tears.

[Third-level Mermaid Tears are of fair value.]

[In view of the value of the items, the restriction that one person can only purchase one advanced genetic optimization potion is lifted, and three advanced genetic optimization potions can be exchanged.]

Originally, he wanted to bid for one, but after thinking about it, this would still be too much pressure. If Gore was provoked and did not agree to the exchange, would he have to bargain with him all the way in the virtual light curtain?

The persona he set for all the trading intelligence in each store was to be completely fair and impartial, and the selling price was the same. Therefore, to prevent the persona he had set from being ruined, he finally set the exchange quantity at three.

This number was not too much, not too little, but the most appropriate. He believed that Gore would not refuse.

The facts were just as he thought. Although Gore wanted to make a counteroffer at first, he finally agreed to the deal after the smart light curtain did not make any concessions.

As the three intermediate gene optimization potions were delivered to Gore, Song Chi also got the Mermaid Tears, and for a moment he couldn't hide the joy in his heart.

With the addition of this Mermaid Tears, if his father thought of a way later, the Dragonfly would be officially advanced in seven months, and the success rate would exceed 50% no matter what.

Although it was still not very safe, it was much higher than 24%. Additionally, if they could get the titanium crystal in the future, it would improve even more.
