<h4>903 Transformation</h4>
“Woah, what arge lump!”
“This item is a little interesting. This looks a little like an Ultraman transformation.”
“This looks like a biochemical transformation!”
“Wow, he really looks a little like a Creeper...”
“No, no, no, this is a Ravager!”
“Bullsh*t, look at his sexy bone spikes. He is obviously a Skeleton Horse!”
“I didn’t study much, but don’t lie to me. This is obviously a monster from Bla the Fairies.”
The yers all gathered around with curiosity in their eyes.
Their height was only up to the transformed yer’s crotch, and they were like dwarfs surrounding a giant. The yers then stretched out their hands to touch the body of the transformed yer.
“Oi! Watch where you’re touching! You’re touching my ass! Why don’t you transform yourself if you’re so curious?”
That yer was exasperated and swung his palm out like a heavy hammer. The few yers surrounding him were immediately sent flying and crashing into the alloy walls.
The yers who were sent flying were not angry at all. They all stood up and puked out a mouthful of blood before crowding forward again excitedly.
“Wow, that attack dealt a lot of damage. How powerful.”
“Hurry up and check your attributes.”
The other yers pestered him by the side.
Han Xiao’s eyes sparkled as he watched the scene before him.
The Ovitan Badge was an item that had been through many rounds of improvements and modifications. The Evolutionary Civilization would not create soldiers that lost all reason. Thus, the transformed being would maintain a certain degree of their consciousness and would not enter a [Chaos] state. It was just that their intelligence level and mental resistance would fall, and they were only capable of making some basic judgement. However, because of the uniqueness of the yers, they would not experience any changes to their mental state after using the Ovitan Badge.
This meant that his theory was right. The yers were the most suitable bunch to use the Ovitan Badge!
They did not lose their rationality and could fully utilize their strength after the evolution!
Han Xiao coughed and interrupted the yers. “How are you feeling right now? Can you still control your body freely?”
“I can.” The transformed yer performed a few actions curiously and disyed his stunning dexterity. His nails transformed into sharp ws to scratch his bald head.
Han Xiao nodded, and nanoparticles gushed out from his sleeves to form a golden needle.
“Don’t move, let me check your body.”
As he said that, Han Xiao stabbed the needle into the transformed being’s body, andbat information popped up.
The Ovitan Badge seemed to exist in the form of a buff, and this yer was currently experiencing the buff.

Woah, how ferocious!
Han Xiao excitedly analyzed the effects of the badge.
The transformation had obviously prioritized closebat strength, and the gene evolution path that the Evolutionary Civilization had set leaned toward strengthening the body while weakening the mind.
After all, the initial motive of designing the Ovitan Badge was to scam investments... cough cough, create a suicidal civilian army. Thus, strengthening the body was the fastest way to raise an individual’s strength.
After the transformation, their biggest improvement was in their tankiness!
During Version 3.0, the yer’s level limit was 120. When he was at level 120, his health was about thirty thousand, and the yers, who did not have any Molding Talents, should have about ten thousand health with their basic Endurance boost being one to fifty. After the transformation, the yer’s health was increased by four times!
Just this extra boost provided by the transformation would provide the yers with forty thousand more health, and together with the few hundred points of Endurance that a level 120 yer had, it was possible for their health to break the hundred thousand mark. Just from their health alone, it was sufficient to bepared to an ordinary Cmity Grade Super!
An ordinary level 120 yer would have their attributes in the range of the hundreds. As such, the boost to their Strength, Dexterity, and Endurance would be almost doubled.
Thus, the benefits of the transformation were extremely obvious. If a yer transformed when their HP was low, there was definitely a chance to turn the entire battle around.
However, the weakness was also extremely obvious. An individual’s Intelligence and Mystery would be greatly reduced, and their mental resistance would be frighteningly low. Furthermore, a lot of the frozen skills would be the long-ranged skills, resulting in the transformed being’s long-rangebat capability being extremely poor. If the transformed being could not drag the enemy into a close ranged battle, it was very likely that the transformed being would end up bing a live target board.
Just as he was viewing thebat information, Bun-Hit-Dog and the others also saw the attribute panel being shared by the transformed yer.
“F***! This is too overpowered!”
“Although he is extremely ugly, I can ept it!”
Everyone then activated the badges excitedly, and eight more beasts appeared in the room. Feeling their powerful strength, they jumped around the room like monkeys. Bun-Hit-Dog was the only one who did not transform.
Bun-Hit-Dog swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked Han Xiao with agitation, “Army Commander, will this item be sold to everyone after this test?”
Han Xiao looked at him and said, “Hmm, although the side effects of this item is extremelyrge, it is very useful. I will produce it inrge quantities and sell it to the members of the army. As for whether they want to buy it or not, that will be their personal choice.”
Bun-Hit-Dog’s eyes widened, and he instantly knew that this matter would be world shaking news.
This was his exclusive content!
I am going to be trending for sure!
Following which, Han Xiao got the yers to perform a few tests and obtained valuable research data. Finally, the yers’ health dropped to zero, and they revived back into their original forms.
After confirming the usage of the Ovitan Badge, Han Xiao could also be at ease and gave the ten suicidal yers their mission reward. He then watched as they left excitedly, and he got Phillip to ce the Ovitan Badge in the army’s store. At the same time, he had also refreshed the interface of the faction store.
The product name was also changed, and it was not called the Ovitan Badge. Instead, it was called ‘ck Star Army Badge: Evolution’. The picture on the badge was the ck Star logo of the ck Star Army.
Because the core technological skill required was the Evolution Cube, the production cost of the Ovitan Badge was extremely low. Furthermore, it could be reused as long as it was refilled with energy. Han Xiao set the price of such a powerful equipment at 150,000 Enas and 2,500 Contribution Points. The price of the Ovitan Badge was akin to that of a spaceship, and his profits were sky high! The price that he had set was mainly to target the yer group.
After all, to an ordinary member of the army, using the badge meant instant death. The frightening side effects and price would keep them far away from the item, and not many of them would buy one. But in the yer’s eyes, this item was like a divine item, and dying meant nothing to them at all!
Not just in Version 3.0, the Ovitan Badge would be extremely useful before the yers reached the Cmity Grade!
Of course, there was another reason for setting such a high price: to control thebat capability of the yers. Furthermore, it was impossible for all the yers to have the money to purchase such an item. Han Xiao was even nning to charge a fee for refilling the energy of the badge, and this would spur the yers unable to afford it to do more missions...
What a perfect cycle.
The only problem was that the image of their army would be affected. After all, which proper organization would create so many transformed creatures?
...
At the same time, Bun-Hit-Dog left the testing room and immediately posted a thread on the forums.
‘Shocking! The ck Star Army’s new item is actually...’
The thread included the entire testing process and arge number of pictures and videos. At the same time, the [ck Star Army Badge: Evolution] also went on the shelves of the faction store, and Bun-Hit-Dog’s thread became extremely popr!
The yers all began to reply to the thread.

_____________________
Apart from some useless banter, the majority of the yers were discussing the effects of the [ck Star Army Badge: Evolution].
Every yer only had ten chances to revive within six days, so this side effect was still eptable to them. Many yers could see the value of this tool.
Because of the high price, only some wealthy individuals and squirrels were able to afford it. After looking at the thread, many yers were tempted and immediately ced an order with Phillip.
There was a limited number of badges avable, and they could only pre-order them at the moment. Han Xiao nned tounch the product officially in a few days and got the logistics department to first set up an assembly line.
Han Xiao and the Dynasty Ruler came to a verbal agreement on the business for the Evolutionary Totem. The actual details of the cooperation would only be confirmed after an official response from the dynasty was given. A Universal Civilization was extremelyrge, and even if the power structure was simple, there would still be plenty of red tape.
Han Xiao could make use of this time to form a connection with the Evolution Cube based on the methods recorded by the Evolutionary Civilization. This was a long-term process, and it could not be rushed.
Han Xiao merrily viewed the forums and went back to his room. He suddenly thought about something.
“Right. Phillip, show me the footage of Shazik and Lothaire. I want to see how they are blending into the army.”
“Hum.”
Han Xiao entered the quantumwork and checked on how Shazik and Lothaire were getting along with the old members of the army.
Shazik was extremely normal and was still familiarizing himself in his new environment. He was getting along pretty well with the people from the intelligence department, but he did not have a great sense of presence. However, this was not a disadvantage for an intelligence officer but an advantage.
The situation with Lothaire was a little different. Lothaire was used to being alone and did not interact with the other officers. He would be either training in the training room alone or sharpening his de in the room while staring at the wall in a daze. He was like a loner.
Han Xiao thought for a while and headed toward Lothaire’s room.
When Lothaire first joined, he was rushing to take a look at the Evolutionary Civilization’s information and did notmunicate much with the other party. Han Xiao decided to head over and have a good conversation with Lothaire.
Based onbat strength and potential, Lothaire was definitely ranked among the top five in the army and had even exceeded Hadavy. He was only second to H, Aurora, Feidin, and Nero. He was a peak expert below the Beyond Grade A realm. Han Xiao ced great importance on Lothaire’s potential and thus felt the need to care about his mental health.
After all, EsGod was his nightmare, and he was now freed from his nightmare. Since he had snatched the enemy from the other party, Han Xiao felt the need to take responsibility for that. If not, a loner like Lothaire might end up losing himself in the future.
