You're in pain, aren't you? Anesthetics don't work on you, so we can only use physical anesthesia. Don't worry, you won't die, probably."
Banner came over to him, brandishing an iron rod, his expression somewhat terrifying.
"Wait, Dr., I can bear it." The experimental man's eyes widened in horror, and he quickly called out to stop him.
"Really?" Banner stared at him, half-believing, half-doubting.
"Really, really."
The experimental man nodded repeatedly, cold sweat pouring down his forehead. If that rod came down, his brains would be splattered.
Banner hesitated for a moment, then had to put down the rod. At this point, there was still noise outside, and he angrily opened the door and roared.
"Shut up! Whoever's making noise, I'll treat him last!"
The outside instantly fell silent, everyone as quiet as a mouse, not daring to even breathe.
After Dr. Banner roared, he saw an unexpected figure.
"Young Master, why have you come?"
"To see the progress of your potion research. But Banner, how long have you been without sleep?"
Qinuo looked at the heavy dark circles under Banner's eyes and asked with concern.
"Sleep? I only rested for 2 hours 38 hours ago. I feel great. Even if I die, I'll resurrect in perfect condition," Banner said indifferently.
Good heavens.
No wonder his temper was so volatile after not seeing him for a while.
Qinuo shook his head helplessly and looked at the disabled personnel nearby.
"What's going on with them?"
"Young Master, these are team members Frank found. Because of their physical disabilities, they can't train, so they were sent to me for experiments."
Fearing that Qinuo would be averse to human experimentation, Banner explained further,
"They are all volunteers, and my experiments are all safe; there's no risk of Death."
The team members nearby also eagerly explained.
"Young Master, Dr. Banner is right, we are all volunteers."
"Yes, Young Master, if there's a chance to recover, we're willing to take some risks!"
"We trust Dr. Banner, and we trust the organization will give us a new life!"
Everyone spoke one after another, expressing their willingness, their eagerness as if to prove they were fully prepared.
Before coming, they knew who they were working for—just the Demon King. Let alone just working, even if it meant selling their souls, as long as they had a healthy body, they would do anything.
They had had enough of everything: their wives' betrayal, their once beloved partners who had sworn eternal love leaving resolutely after their disability, leaving only cold backs.
Their parents' sorrow, the deep helplessness and pain in their eyes, like a knife, piercing their hearts again and again.
The mockery of friends and relatives, the harsh sneers still seemed to echo in their ears.
Their children's disdain, their once cherished sons and daughters now looking at them with disgust and fear.
What good was it even if they had made contributions to this country?
Glory and medals seemed so pale and powerless in the face of their disabled bodies; the hardships of life were not alleviated in the slightest by past achievements.
Qinuo pressed his hand down, and the scene immediately quieted. A kind smile appeared on his face.
"Don't be nervous, I didn't say I disagree with human experimentation. I can understand your pain.
Trust me, you will gain a new life here. As long as you work well for me, power, life, wealth, health—all of these will be yours."
Upon hearing Qinuo's words, hope flickered in everyone's eyes.
"Young Master, we will definitely work hard for you and will not let you down."
Qinuo nodded with satisfaction. Although he wasn't good at PUA rhetoric, the practical results he could provide were better.
"Alright, you all can leave for now. Banner and I have some things to discuss. This experiment was very successful. Everyone will recover completely in the future."
"Yes, Young Master."
These people saluted Qinuo and were about to leave.
"Take that one inside with you. Once his foot is healed, tell him to come over," Banner called out to them.
Upon hearing this, a man with half his face burned and another missing an arm immediately entered the laboratory, hoisted up the experimental man, and left.
"Garcia, Weilong, go easy, don't ruin my little foot."
"Why aren't you talking? Are you unhappy because I defeated you by drawing lots?"
"No, where are you taking me? That's not the direction to the dormitory."
The experimental man shrieked in terror, but the two men completely ignored his cries and led him away directly.
After everyone left, Banner brought Qinuo and Lei Xiaogu into the laboratory, eager to showcase his success.
"Young Master, over the past few months, I have developed three different potions."
Banner's eyes gleamed with excitement as he spoke, picking up a syringe.
"The first is a strengthening potion. Theoretically, injecting it can increase strength by two to three times. Beyond that, side effects like irritability and bloodlust will appear."
Banner grabbed a White mouse, skillfully injected a little red liquid, and then placed it in a high-strength glass box.
Inside, another White mouse was quietly staying in the corner, but its size was noticeably larger than the newly released one.
Qinuo closely watched the White mouse's changes. It first became restless, running back and forth in the glass box, its tiny claws scratching the box walls, emitting faint "squeaking" sounds.
Then, its body gradually grew larger, its originally thin frame slowly becoming robust.
Finally, it quieted down, not bothering the larger White mouse already in the box, each quietly staying in its corner.
Then Dr. Banner again grabbed a White mouse, injected a bit more of the potion into its body than before, and then placed it in a new glass box.
The White mouse initially showed no reaction, but a few seconds later, its body began to grow larger little by little.
Immediately after, its emotions also became irritable. It frantically ran back and forth, crashing into the box walls, and even gnawing with its sharp teeth, emitting sharp, piercing screams from its mouth. Its two eyes were bloodshot, appearing extremely wild.
"This White mouse's strength has increased by about four times. After this, no matter how much the dosage is increased, there is no effect unless new potion formulas are combined for experiments."
Banner said with regret, picking up a prepared stun gun and reaching it into the glass box. The frantic White mouse seemed completely unaware of the approaching danger, still desperately crashing around.
The moment the stun gun touched the White mouse, a burst of electricity flashed, and the White mouse's body twitched violently a few times before ceasing to move, thus dying.
"I'll find the potion formulas, but after these potions are injected, will the new version of the potion be compatible?" Qinuo asked.
"No problem. I made it using Lazarus Pit as the main ingredient. As long as the main ingredient doesn't change, there won't be much rejection. However, if the subject's physical quality is too strong, then this potion won't have much effect; it can only be used for ordinary people."
