(Due to the Grammarly problem, it seems writing the "Cost" as the stated pricing means my book had a word mistake. Forgive me because, for my OCD issue, these things will damage my writing experience and making it harder for me to cope with it. Hence the system part might be vague due to Grammarly's limitation)

'Serum Base and Viral Base Material? Is that the requirement for the system to produce Serums at a higher quality?' Zhang Qin Feng asked. Although it was evident from the differences under the grading, there's no pain in asking for further clarification.

[The user's conclusion is correct. The Serum and Viral Base is the prerequisite for producing Serums a grade higher from the Grade-H Baseline. But that was not all. The system needed more than just two Base materials to create a single dose of Grade-G Serum]

'Oh? What else do the system needs?' Zhang Qin Feng asked.

[In the System's crafting option, there are four types of serum available to choose from]

-

=] [Physique Serum]-[Boost the user's Physique Status by 1.0 point permanently. Medicinal Strength is gradually absorbed into the user's body in five hours duration. During the absorption process, granting the user "Steelskin" ability until the effect wore off]

=] Fitness Serum]-[Permanently increases the user's Fitness Status by 1.0 point. The medicinal effect lasts for four hours period. During the absorption process, granting the user "Haste" ability]

=] Potential Serum]-[Permanently increases the user's Response and Foundation Status by 0.5 points. Effective immediately. Upon injection, the user will enter a hallucination state for one hour. Side effect decreases the more resistance the user has against the serum]

=] [Viral-Gene Immunity]-[Contained a doctored 0.001% of genetically modified Crystal Seed Virus. Effect unknown. Side Effect unknown. Results unknown. Safe control is required before injection]

-

[All Serum production required five pairs of Base materials, along with an equal number of their relevant Grade-H serum as a foundation. Physique and Fitness Serum requires Strengthening serum to serve as the base, and Potential Serum cost Concentration serum to serve as the base]

-

[The Viral-Gene Immunity Injection is currently still under development. More information will be disclosed when more system laboratory results come out. The production cost for this serum will be ten units of each Grade-G Serums and two Base Materials]

'!!!' Zhang Qin Feng was shocked by the prices that could bankrupt him in a flash.

'Stein… Don't you think that the cost of material seems to hiked up too much?' Zhang Qin Feng gives out a sour face while counting the cost he will have to fork out to produce a single injectable serum.

A total of ten base materials would take him 100 Antiviral materials to produce, along with fifty Duranium Shards. Added with five Grade-H Serums he needed, that's a total of 150 Antiviral Materials, and 50 Duranium Shards cost for a bottle of Physique, Fitness, or Potential Serum.

If he were to calculate the effectiveness, fifteen bottles of Grade-H Serum would be granting him 3.0 points to his Physique and Fitness Status. In the case of Concentration Boost Serum, that's 1.5 points in Response Status.

[Replying to the user, a logic calculation cannot be done this way. Putting aside all the formulas aside, would the user rather have one injection or fifteen?]

Stein's first response to Zhang Qin Feng's complaint made his mind frozen for a moment. It was a question about preferring to be slapped once, very hard, or fifteen times, moderately? And what if the analogy of slapping changed into one deep cut or fifteen slashes from a knife?

Even the timidest individual will choose the former instead of the latter.

'I'll submit to your logic.' Zhang Qin Feng was speechless. Although it was a sensible reply to his question, he was still somewhat unconvinced by it. The reason behind his unwillingness to accept the truth is likely linked to a human's natural behavior.

[Furthermore, what the user has to notice is the side effect and benefits of the Grade-G Serum. Would you like to hear about the "Steelskin" and "Haste" ability the serum granted?]

Stein could notice a hint of unwillingness in Zhang Qin Feng's response and deemed it necessary to motivate the user. And based on its reasoning algorithm, the system believes that stating the benefit would help.

'Go ahead. Let me know what the two temporary abilities could grant me.' Zhang Qin Feng nodded. As he was too deep in his thought, he did not realize that Alice Moon had loosened her grip over his hand.

[Steelskin - Effective for five hours from taking the Physique Serum. During the five hours, the user impervious to external damage. Increases user resistance towards cut and slashes, bites, and blunt impact. The higher is the Status table, the more the user can harness this ability]

[[Note: The user is still vulnerable to attack than more than his physique can handle, such as an attack from a Tyrant-Level Zombie, Sniper Rifle, and the recently designed prototype, Wolfram Light.]]

-

[Haste - Effective for four hours. Enhances the user's physical performance on the spot. This ability will allow the user to move faster, fight better, to the point of dodging bullets and catching other people's attacks]

[[Note: The user might suffer a backlash from over-sped, likely due to the inability to process the information that came twice faster than before. This backlash can be negated by increasing the Response and Foundation Status.]]
