Chapter 288: 286 The Fifth

Meanwhile, in the outside world, every media outlet and every government facility was going wild over a mind-blowing piece of news that was just released by the Korean Government.

In this particular announcement, the Korean government revealed that it had decided to experiment and try the strange formula which had mysteriously gone viral a few days ago… and shockingly, they realized it did indeed work!

…

"According to the news we received, after swallowing the pill that was created as a result of the said formula, the intaker amazingly developed a 90 percent resistance to the toxicity of the red-crystals!"

"Then, as the Abnormal subject placed the crystal within his mouth and kept it inside without swallowing it, the flame-like red substance within the crystal was finally absorbed in around ten minutes! Moreover, the Abnormal's Trait also experienced a slight increase in power! The only downside was that the consumer still experienced a slight degree of pain, though it's entirely tolerable and safe now unlike before!" Voiced a Korean newscaster toward the cameras before adding further, "In order to test the duration of the pill and making sure it took effect just as described in the formula, the government tried it every hour, and finally realized that, after five hours, its wonderous effect indeed disappeared."

The front page title of many newspapers in the world like The China Daily, The Guardian, The Times of India, The Washington Post, etc. were also about the same subject. For example, The New York Times wrote, 'A New Dawn For Humanity: The Discovery of a Safe Formula for Absorbing The Red-Crystals!'. Or that the China Daily posted, 'Resistance Ensured: The New Pill Enables The Abnormals to Safely Absorb The Stored Energy Within the Red-Crystal!'

However, there were also a few who typed a certain inquiry in their headline. For instance, The Washington Post wrote, 'Where Did This Shocking Formula Come From?'

All of these instantly sent several tremors all around Earth as every government began its production and studies on the fascinating formula in a rush.

Soon, without anyone knowing who started it first, automatically, everyone started calling it the 'Resistance Pill'. It was as if every single person had come to a prior agreement on what to call it. Because whoever was asked why he called it the 'Resistance Pill', that person would respond with, "Because this pill is probably our only hope of 'Resistance' against the invading monsters! Moreover, it makes the consumer develop a temporary 'Resistance' to the toxicity of the crystal, right? So what better name is there for it?"

Right now, regarding the production of this miraculous pill formula, most private facilities and corporations were in a wait and see state. Since the overall number of Abnormals around the world were rather low, no matter how they calculated, they could infer no possibility of profiting from this great opportunity. Furthermore, since all governments were already preparing to produce the 'Resistance Pills', they were most likely to cover all the demands on the market and leave no pieces of the pie for them. Of course, although they had no intention of producing Resistance Pills, they still set their experiments and studies on the said formula in motion, hoping to reach a great breakthrough in similar matters.

At the same time, normal netizens and even Abnormal netizens were talking on the same subject over the internet.

"Oh my freaking god, this 'Resistance Pill' changes everything!" Uttered a netizen called PenDrive. He was an all-timer online netizen who could be spotted most of the time.

Another user muttered in awe, "I know right? A new path of getting stronger has been unlocked for humanity! Although it's just a path for Abnormals, but still… wow!"

"Hmm… but where did this formula come from? Someone must've invented it, right? But who? And why would the said person hide it and just release it to the world free of charge?" Many were also feeling suspicious about this whole situation as they asked themselves, 'What's the catch?'

"@AboveUser No idea… the only possible response I can think of is that it's either one of the top corporations in the field of medicine or the 'Virus Industries'! But if it was indeed one of them, why wouldn't they just reveal the fact that it was they who spread it to the world in the first place?"

"That's unlikely. But if it's truly the Virus Industries… I can understand! That company's the true savior of mankind! I mean, they are selling the temporary cure to the Mutated HIV without any profit in return! And that's why only if it's truly them would I believe there's no catch in return for all of this!" Voiced another smart-arse.

Rather dispiritedly, one user opened up, "Abnormals, otherworldly rifts, and gigantic monsters which has probably gone through many mutations! I just feel so much disbelief toward everything now… my sense of logic has been shattered apart so badly that almost every day… I keep wondering if I still live in the real world anymore? And… I really miss the normal safe days with no world-level drama."

"In response to the above user, I know what you're talking about mate. To me, everything before the appearance of the Rifts and the Mutated HIV feels just like a dream too. But unfortunately, this is the new normal now. So, let me give you a piece of advice and say… get used to it before it knocks you down. You must adjust to the flow before the flow drowns you showing no mercy!"

"First of all, let me begin by saying that I'm an Abnormal. Secondly, I don't think all these changes are that bad! Before, we had to hide our entire lives! But now, we finally have the opportunity to step into the light and be the true savior of mankind! I'm just so excited about absorbing some Red-Crystals now! The thought of just how much more powerful I could get by these precious crystals makes me excited to no ends… I mean, just think about it, I could even get as strong as those main characters in certain novels!" Wrote one Abnormal. Prior to the revelation of the Red-Crystals, he had always felt a limit to his Trait as it never got any stronger even with a lot of practice. The only aspect that improved with training was his control over his trait, but that didn't make him that stronger either.

"Haha… keep dreaming fool! Main character my ass, you're not even a distant side character! I'm sorry to say this, but I'm sure your government won't waste a single Red-Crystal on you! And I'm even more confident that they've already made a long list of who they're gonna give the Red-Crystals to… and none of them shall be you." Said another one in a mocking tone. He was someone who was very angry at the unfairness of this world as he always wondered to himself, 'Why don't I have a Trait too?'

"Don't be rude bro, I'm pretty certain that Abnormal can volunteer to fight at the incoming breakouts! And if he can kill one or two of those monsters, his government might hand one of the Red-Crystals over him." Voiced another one.

Reading their conversation up to this point, another Abnormal proclaimed, "Ah… to be honest, I'm afraid of fighting those scary monsters… I mean, let's get real, this is no novel, and I'm no main character who would come out of every fight alive! So… no thanks!"

BACK TO VIRUS AND THE GOLDEN BEAUTY

The moment Virus said he was going to transmit the next DNA Core data, it directly popped into her head.

『 5. Fire Phoenix Bloodline DNA Core: Legendary-grade bloodline, Purity— Five drops of Fire Phoenix Blood.』

The moment these data showed up within her head, her eyes went wide open as she froze entirely. She felt like her entire world-view had just turned completely upside-down. She was very astounded indeed.

Seeing her bedazzled expression, Virus couldn't help but grin in amusement as he exclaimed while snapping his fingers, "Lil Belle? Lil Belle! Snap out of it!"

"Ah, yes… Master?!? Did I receive the correct information just now? Did I see wrong? Or… could it be you're joking around again?" Full of disbelief, the golden beauty queried.

Powerlessly sighing in return, Virus replied, "I wouldn't joke around in this kind of situation!"

Weirdly staring at his charming eyes, she thought, 'Yeah, right! Then who was the person that was teasing me just a few minutes ago?'
