A bottle of Bloody Mary’s blood was consumed, and Yelai could clearly feel the heat spreading throughout his body. From a macro perspective, he felt an overall warmth, while on a micro level, it seemed as if his blood was being heated.
When he focused on the microscopic details, he sensed that every single cell in his body was being nourished by the Bloody Mary’s blood, undergoing changes that science would find difficult to explain. The power belonging to Sequence was being awakened, and his Rank progress was skyrocketing.
Xianya and Yezi didn’t have time to feel their own transformations; they, along with Yuan Youmeizi, sensed something and turned to look at Yelai.
“How much has he improved?” Yezi exclaimed in astonishment at Yelai's rapid advancement. Even as bystanders, they could intuitively perceive the drastic change.
Soon enough, the bottle of Bloody Mary’s blood was drained. Once Yelai seemed to have digested its effects sufficiently, Yezi eagerly asked, “How do you feel? How much has your Rank progress increased?”
She was incredibly curious; Yelai’s transformation was something even Yuan Youmeizi hadn’t experienced to such an extent.
“It feels good, more than I expected. I initially anticipated a smaller increase,” Yelai paused for a moment before smiling and continuing, “Including the first bottle of Bloody Mary’s blood I drank, I’ve made significant progress.”
As he spoke, he felt the strength of his Rank and wore a satisfied smile on his face. His Rank progress had reached seven.
Xianya and the others were left stunned.
Yuan Youmeizi gasped in surprise, her mouth slightly agape. She thought her own advancement was already quite extraordinary, knowing that the higher the rank, the slower the rate of improvement. Yet this was nearly a third of a rank increase—remarkable, to say the least. Especially since it belonged to the upper rank of Seven.
But Yelai's progress was even more astonishing. He had achieved half an increase in an upper rank! Was he even human? The straightforward Yazi couldn't help but ask, "Yelai, are you sure you didn't miscalculate?"
Before Yelai could respond, Yuan Youmeizi interjected. "There's no way you could have miscalculated; the change in progress is too significant, especially with so many factors involved." She fixed her intense gaze on Yelai and added with fervor, "Yelai, why don't you try drinking another bottle?"
"Huh?" Xianya and Yazi were momentarily taken aback, their eyes lighting up in realization.
Theoretically, a Sequencer could only achieve a maximum enhancement from drinking Bloody Mary's blood up to a certain number of bottles; beyond that, it would be ineffective. However, this theory did not apply to all Sequencers.
"Yes, Yelai, why not drink another bottle? After all, you still have one left," Yazi urged while explaining. "My aunt told me that some high-level Sequencers are quite special; they can still gain enhancements from Bloody Mary's blood even after reaching the limit."
Xianya nodded in agreement. "So far, the record for effective bottles of Bloody Mary’s blood is said to be three. Although we don’t know how much that person improved, Yelai, you’re already at two bottles."
The speed of improvement was far greater than Yamiko's; who knows, he might even manage to drink a third bottle.
"I'll give it a try." Without a hint of hesitation, Yelai opened the remaining bottle of Bloody Mary’s blood meant for stock.
"How is it?"
"Is there an improvement?"
As Yelai downed the drink, the eyes of Yezi and the others sparkled with anticipation.
Moments later, they saw Yelai nodding. "There is an improvement."
It really has improved!
