Gu Wanyin followed her in confusion to the entrance of the laboratory.
"Why did you suddenly bring me here?" Gu Wanyin asked.
Zhuang Xiaoxia, still a bit out of breath, said with a joyful expression: "With the ingredients you provided from the demon realm, we've finally developed a potion today!"
"Really?" Gu Wanyin asked with interest, "What kind of potion? What's it for?"
"It enhances Supernatural Ability!" Zhuang Xiaoxia said excitedly, "Just now, after Dr. Liu drank a small vial of the potion, he directly awakened a Fire Ability! Although it's only level one for now, it's still better than having no ability at all, right?"
Dr. Liu was also a guest at the hotel. Gu Wanyin remembered him, a man in his forties who always wore glasses and had a serious demeanor.
"You just developed the potion, and he dared to drink it?" Gu Wanyin said admiringly, "Aren't you afraid something might go wrong?"
"We had no choice! Who else would dare to take this risk besides ourselves?" Zhuang Xiaoxia said, "Besides, we were actually quite confident in the results of this research. Even if it didn't work, it wouldn't harm the human body."
Gu Wanyin nodded and then entered the laboratory with Zhuang Xiaoxia.
Dr. Liu was staring intently at a small flame in the palm of his hand.
The other researchers also looked excited.
When they saw Gu Wanyin arrive, they calmed down a bit and greeted her.
"Boss Gu is here."
"Hello, Boss Gu."
"Boss Gu, look! Dr. Liu has a Fire Ability now!"
Gu Wanyin looked curiously at the small flame in Dr. Liu's hand.
Since the apocalypse began, only the lucky ones could awaken Supernatural Abilities.
Whether these abilities would upgrade later also depended entirely on luck.
But now, with this potion, perhaps even ordinary people could awaken abilities, and those who already had abilities could enhance their power levels!
Just as Zhuang Xiaoxia said, even if the ability gained from drinking the potion wasn't very strong, it was still better than having none at all!
This way, it would definitely be more convenient for them to kill zombies in the future.
Of course, to completely eradicate them would still take a lot of effort.
After all, the world in this book was different from the world Gu Wanyin used to live in.
The population in this world was much larger than in her previous world.
So the number of zombies was unimaginably vast.
Although people had become more motivated to kill zombies since the hotel appeared, the zombies they had killed were just a drop in the ocean compared to the total number of zombies worldwide...
It would still take a lot of effort to end this apocalypse!
"Have all of you drunk this potion?" Gu Wanyin asked Zhuang Xiaoxia, "How do you feel?"
"We all drank it, but only Dr. Liu showed any changes," Zhuang Xiaoxia scratched her head, "We think the potion might only work on ordinary people."
Among them, except for Dr. Liu who had no ability, the others all had level one or two abilities.
And after they drank the potion, their bodies didn't undergo any changes.
"Is that so? Then let me try," Gu Wanyin said.
As it happened, she was just an ordinary person without any ability.
If she drank it and awakened an ability, it would prove that the potion might really be effective for ordinary people!
"Really? Boss Gu, you want to drink it?" a man said emotionally, "You trust us that much?"
Hearing this, Gu Wanyin forced a smile.
It wasn't that she trusted them, but rather that she had an invincibility buff...
So she wasn't afraid at all.
Even if she experienced any negative effects after drinking the potion, they would quickly be purified.
Zhuang Xiaoxia handed her a vial of the potion.
Gu Wanyin drank it without hesitation.
After drinking, she suddenly felt a bit of heat in her body.
"Boss Gu, how do you feel?" Zhuang Xiaoxia and the others looked at her with hopeful expressions.
"I feel a bit..."
Before she could say "hot," a crackling ball of lightning suddenly appeared in Gu Wanyin's palm.
Although it only lasted for a moment and quickly disappeared, everyone saw it.
"Did you see that? It's a Lightning Ability!" Dr. Liu exclaimed, "Just like me earlier! Except I had a flame appear!"
Then, he excitedly said to Gu Wanyin: "Boss Gu, focus on feeling the fluctuations in your body, and you'll be able to use your ability skillfully soon! It's only level one, so it's easy to control!"
Gu Wanyin nodded, then closed her eyes and concentrated on feeling the fluctuations in her body as Dr. Liu had said.
Sure enough, she soon became adept at controlling the lightning ball to appear in her hand.
"It really is a level one Lightning Ability," Gu Wanyin said admiringly, "You're all too amazing! You actually managed to develop a potion that can awaken Supernatural Abilities! People without abilities will definitely be thrilled about this."
Not to mention those without abilities, even she, who had an invincibility buff, felt a bit excited about suddenly having an ability!
"But for now, only a few of us have drunk it, so we can't draw a definitive conclusion yet," Zhuang Xiaoxia scratched her head, "It would be best to find more people to drink it and observe their reactions."
Gu Wanyin thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's look for volunteers in the hotel who are willing to test the potion."
Of course, it wouldn't be forced; it would be entirely voluntary.
Now, there were quite a few guests in the hotel.
There might actually be people willing to try this potion that could awaken Supernatural Abilities.
Moreover, Zhuang Xiaoxia had already said that even if it didn't work, it definitely wouldn't harm the human body.
So, Gu Wanyin made an announcement in the hotel, seeking volunteers willing to test the potion.
They gave the potion a name, simple and straightforward: the Ability Activation Potion.
Of course, she didn't make any absolute promises, mentioning that there might be side effects, but there would be no life-threatening danger.
If anyone was willing to try, they could come and drink a vial of the potion.
If they successfully awakened an ability, it would be free of charge.
If the potion was confirmed to be effective, it would be sold to the public in the future, and at that time, people would have to pay points to drink it!
Of course, if they decided to sell the potion to the public, the points earned would be shared between Gu Wanyin and the researchers.
Although the researchers had developed the potion, the research facilities, tools, and materials were provided by the hotel and Gu Wanyin, and Gu Wanyin also paid the researchers points every month.
So Gu Wanyin would definitely get a share of the points earned from selling the potion.
When they heard about the development of the Ability Activation Potion, the hotel guests began discussing it.
"If I could have a Supernatural Ability, I'd never be afraid of zombies again!"
"That's an exaggeration. A level one ability can only handle level one zombies. Haven't you seen how powerful level two zombies are?"
"It's still better than having no ability at all! If I could awaken a strong offensive ability, that would be even better!"
"But... what if there are side effects after drinking the potion?"
