Due to the restrictions of this world’s logistics level, it was difficult for the products of the Empire’s direct workshops to be transported to remote towns, causing such a phenomenon.
There was a dazzling array of various types of mutant blood potions. There were even more than ten sets of fatal-risk mutant beast potions that were rarely seen outside, including the works of masters.
According to the formula of the Mutant Blood Potion, there was a huge difference in the final product’s effect if the ingredients of a mutant beast were mixed with different herbs or ores.
The better the formula, the better the strengthening effect on the body. It would inherit the stronger characteristics of the beasts, and the less likely it was for there to be side effects, reducing the chances of death.
In the past, after a long period of research, the various tribes had each grasped a unique formula. However, after the establishment of the Terra Empire, they gathered the formulas of many tribes and further researched and improved them, forming a formula with more outstanding effects, thus consolidating the empire’s resource advantage.
In addition, a large number of elites and master pharmacists were gathered in the capital, so the products of the Empire’s direct workshops were often one or two levels higher than those of other towns.
As for the higher-level research projects, the royal capital had left the other towns in the dust. They had started researching a type of compound blood potion as well as a sort of legacy potion that would allow one to inherit the current mutant beast superpowers, but there had been no results yet.
Due to the strange variety of mutant beasts, most of the technology in this world was focused on the research of mutant beasts. To a certain extent, it had already reached the level of biotechnology and genetic engineering. It was quite advanced in biotechnology, but it was very backward in other aspects.
In some aspects, the Mutant World had some concepts, products, systems, and so on that seemed to be incompatible with the current era… Zhou Jing had always thought that this was the influence of the “alien lifeforms.”
Therefore, he was used to seeing things that were different from the current era.
After Zhou Jing asked the workshop staff, he was immediately immersed in the inventory list of the workshop and wanted everything.
He slowly narrowed down his choice and finally chose two bottles of extremely high-standard blood potions.
Unlike other towns, which had a limit on how many potions could be exchanged for, the Imperial Hunters could directly take whatever they wanted as long as they reported it to the base.
Keriber had already greeted him, and the procedures were smooth. Before long, Zhou Jing walked out of the workshop with two exquisite wooden boxes containing potions.
“When do you plan to enhance?” Cole was curious.
“After a while. I need to adjust my condition first.”
“Then when you’re ready, you can call me to help you stand on guard.”
“Okay, okay.”
Zhou Jing casually replied.
He did not plan to use the potion in front of others this time.
After all, the enhancement of the Mutant Blood was risky. If he was unlucky enough to fail and die in front of everyone, it would be very difficult for him to return.
After the incident in White Plains City, he already had experience in this aspect.
Zhou Jing had long thought about it. In the future, he would have to avoid others when he enhanced himself. Even if he died, no one would know. This way, after he died, he would not be buried and could continue to stay in his original place.
Cole did not suspect anything and took out a thick hardcover book from his bag before handing it to Zhou Jing.
“This is our course catalog. Go back and flip through it in the next few days to see which you would like to learn first. When the time comes, I’ll bring you to find the corresponding hunter teacher.”
Zhou Jing took the hardcover book with a subtle expression.
Good lord, there are even teaching materials?
He had thought that the hunters would use primitive words and teachings. After all, that was what Barong did.
After bidding farewell to Cole, Zhou Jing brought Ross home. The first thing he did was flip open the book and take a look. He realized that the Imperial Hunter course was indeed comprehensive and planned.
The courses were even classified into stages such as Entry, Advancement, Expert, and so on. It was quite a deja-vu experience.
“If you tell me this isn’t because of the influence of the life form from the alternate dimensions, I will pee upside down from now on.”
Zhou Jing’s face twitched as he read.
Over the past few days, he had also paid attention to his surroundings. He did not discover any existences that were suspected to be from an alternate dimension among the Imperial Hunters. Of course, it was also possible that they were hiding too deeply.
Although he felt that there would most likely be hidden life forms from other dimensions in a place like the capital, he did not have any thoughts about it at the moment. The real benefit was to increase the power of the Eternal Apostle first.
In the textbooks of the Imperial hunters, the most important lesson was not to fight but to learn information about all kinds of mutant beasts. This was information that generations of hunters had exchanged with their blood. To most hunters, it was more important than direct combat strength.
For example, Barong had only been enhanced once in the past, but because he knew the habits of the white spider monster like the back of his hand, he could lead a group of ordinary hunters to kill it.
However, to Zhou Jing, the highest priority was still the Hunter’s Breathing Technique.
“Wow, as expected of an orthodoxy. There are 18 breathing techniques available.”
Zhou Jing clicked his tongue, his eyes shining.
Barong had said before that the hunter’s breathing technique needed to be taught by someone personally. It could not be taught by books, and the book also only listed the breathing techniques that some hunters in the Empire had mastered.
If he wanted to learn, he would have to seek guidance from the corresponding people. He could not learn it just by relying on the teaching materials.
The 18 types of breathing techniques did not seem like much and did not match the number of Imperial Hunters that numbered in the thousands. However, many of the breathing techniques mastered by hunters were repetitive. For example, the three breathing techniques mastered by Zhou Jing were also recorded in the book.
Most people only learned two or three techniques according to their own path. They did not have the energy to practice other breathing techniques, nor could they use them in battle.
