Chapter 129: Third Serum!
Miles returned to his apartment after he purchased the serum. The prices of the serums increased exponentially, and it would be harder and harder for Miles to purchase them, but with his strength increasing, he would also earn more and more to balance his expenditures.
The third serum cost Miles 25 Million UD, and the last one would be four times that. After all, the material needed for creating these serums was not something that could be shrugged off.
The testing this time was as easy as last time. Miles already knew he passed through the testing thanks to Virtual Reality scanning his body. He had reached the peak of the second serum not long ago, only waiting for an opportunity to buy the medicine, so after seeing the result, the paymaster respectfully escorted Miles and handed the medicine over.
As soon as Miles entered the apartment, Coin notified him, Mom is calling. Miles wasnt perturbed or surprised. Even if Roger or the paymaster wouldnt notify her, Mother AI would. After all, she still had connections to transactions in headquarters, and when Miles bought the medicine with his own identity, Mother AI dutifully notified Evelyn as her close friend.
They were working together ever since the monsters invaded the Earth, and she would consider herself Miless aunt or something even when she lacked the required emotions. Or she had some other agendas, who knew.
Hello, mom. How have you been since we last met? Miles rolled his eyes at his mothers frowning face and joked.
Still mocking your mother? Evelyn asked and fake sadness appeared on her face. Seeing Miless scotic look, she dropped the act and got back to the subject. I heard you bought the third serum.
Yeah. I am already at the peak of the second. Miles truthfully answered.
Are you confident? Evelyn asked with a stern face.
Yes. There wont be any problem. Miles answered with confidence. He was sure he could pass through this ordeal. Not because he was conceited of himself, but because his reaction to the second serum was much milder than other people.
Miles wasn't a suicidal person who gambled with his life. He had a dream, but it didnt mean he would disregard his well-being just because of it. He would take risks, but if the mission was impossible, he would just walk away. But since he knew his body best, he was sure that he would be fine.
His arms were much more powerful too. Opening the door almost removed it from the hinges.
"It is gonna take a long time it seems." Miles sighed as he went to the kitchen to eat some meat. He needed protein as soon as possible after draining any nutrition in his body.
If it wasn't for Coin feeding with the Jumbo Packs of Nutritions from his vein, he would be dead by now.
"Take your time." Coin floated nearby, "You will get used to it."
"Thanks, buddy." Miles nodded as he grabbed the pan, but broke the handle. "Motherf...."
"Let me do it." Coin floated and grabbed another pan and smeared it with oil.
"Okay, I shouldn't touch anything if I can." Miles agreed with a sigh and waited for the food to be served.
"Where now?" asked Coin after Miles was done eating.
"I will study the forging techniques mother stored in my mind. Then I am planning to hunt in locations near the Stronghold for cores. I may need them to practice after all. Purchasing is too expensive. Hunting is easier." Miles answered as he sorted the information in his mind. Once ready, he sat in silence, regardfully
There is a message from Mae. Coin reported.
What is it? Miles looked at him and asked.
Grader Hassan wants to meet you.
