Li Wei had two choices now.

Option one: Inject the remaining two bottles of genetic fluid into the Book of Ten Thousand Laws, filling about three-quarters and saving the rest for later.

Option two: Use the two bottles of genetic fluid to develop his own body's potential.

Li Wei chose the latter.

While accumulating life force was an option, it wouldn't have a significant positive impact on his current strength. However, using the genetic fluid to develop his body's potential would result in an immediate improvement.

Currently, Li Wei believed that rapidly enhancing his overall strength from multiple aspects was more important.

After injecting two bottles of D-grade genetic fluid, he felt that his overall physical qualities had improved by about ten percent.

It was better than nothing.

Now, Li Wei felt that, without using the abilities of the Book of Ten Thousand Laws and relying solely on his physical body, he could probably hold his own for a few moves against someone who had completed extreme training.

This was a significant improvement. Before this, without the precognition ability of the Sharingan, he couldn't even keep up with others' movements.

After fully absorbing the effects of two bottles of D-grade genetic fluid, he began thinking about tomorrow—about escorting Yasha to the Clover Branch with Judith.

In the end, he decided to go along.

A B-rank commission had substantial rewards. Although Judith, the high-level Demon Hunter, would undoubtedly take a large share, Li Wei, cooperating within it, could still get some benefits.

Drinking some soup in a B-rank commission was more profitable than a C-rank commission. As for the risks, with Judith present, they might even be lower than a C-rank commission... maybe?

The next day, Li Wei arrived at the "Wild Delicacies" tavern and met Eileen.

"Have you made up your mind?"

"Hmm, I've made up my mind. I'll go along on this trip."

Eileen's face showed a smile. "It's good that you've thought it through."

She felt that Li Wei was indeed a smart person. People always aimed for higher positions, especially in the profession of a hunter. She had seen too many people who, due to fear of risks and the unknown future, stagnated and were reluctant to move forward.

Zhang Zongming was a good example. Once famous, he later ended up with the ridiculous title of the "Number One Expert in the 17th Street District," unable to even take on a C-rank commission and ultimately suffering the fate of losing an arm.

Indeed, in this world, those who don't act won't die. Doing more means making more mistakes, doing less means making fewer mistakes, and not doing means making no mistakes. But for those with aspirations, how could they be content with mediocrity?

If Li Wei didn't join the escort mission due to concerns about "risk," Eileen would be disappointed and would reassess whether his potential was worth investing in.

However, in the end, Li Wei was able to make the right choice, which made her happy.

An hour later, at the entrance of the "Wild Delicacies" tavern, Li Wei met with Judith and Yasha.

The two women each carried a backpack, indicating that they were ready for the journey. Li Wei had also prepared for the journey.

"Not bad, young man." Judith nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's about time. Did you forget anything? Let's get ready to depart."

"Alright."

Waving goodbye to Eileen, the three of them set out on the road to the Clover Branch.

...

The journey from the 17th Street District to the Clover Branch wasn't short.

In a massive city with a population exceeding thirty million, the land area was extremely vast.

In the lower district, there weren't many tall buildings, and much of the land was developed into tiered food ingredient cultivation fields. Although these cultivation fields were tiered using supports and practiced soilless cultivation, they still took up a considerable amount of space to meet the city's food demands.

For the majority of city residents, although Westdome was just a city, it was essentially their world. Most people never had the chance to leave the city—of course, they also lacked the desire to do so.

Walking from the 17th Street District to the Clover Branch would take a very, very long time, so that wasn't even considered. In fact, Li Wei had only experienced going to the upper district a few times, and it was always by public transportation.

In the lower district, there were trams that traveled between various blocks. These trams, powered by a large amount of white crystal, operated on a schedule throughout the lower district. Generally, for inter-district journeys, taking the tram was the norm; relying on two legs would be too slow.

However, this time, it wasn't necessary because Judith was part of the car-owning class.

As a high-level Demon Hunter, Judith owning a car wasn't surprising.

In the lower district, cars were rare, but in the upper district, the number of cars would increase.

Judith's ride was an off-road vehicle, and if Li Wei remembered correctly, it should be called the "Mustang," a quite high-end brand.

The appearance of the "Mustang" was very wild, with large tires and a high chassis designed specifically for wilderness travel. Additionally, the car's sides and front were modified with horns and blade armor. This not only enhanced its defensive capabilities but also served a purpose in case of encountering a siege by certain monsters when driving in the wilderness.

However, these world cars were quite different from the cars Li Wei knew from his previous life. The strength of the car increased significantly, allowing it to tow very heavy loads, but the speed relatively decreased.

Judith's car, even when driven at top speed, could only reach about a hundred kilometers per hour. According to their planned route, even if there were no disturbances along the way, it would take at least eight hours to reach the destination. Moreover, in the narrow and unfriendly road conditions of the lower district, it would run even slower.

This was due to the limitations of energy types. In the new world, materials like petroleum and coal were basically no longer used, replaced by energy crystals.

The lowest quality was white crystal, followed by blue crystal, and the highest quality was purple crystal.

These energy crystals served as the power source for factories, vehicles, lights, home appliances, weapons, and, just like in the previous world, oil, coal.

Also, because of the crucial role of energy crystals in the new era, they were directly used as currency. Standard crystal currency was a coin about the size of a small fingernail. At the same time, the issued paper currency was also linked to energy crystals and could be directly exchanged for crystals at financial banks.
