The Iron Liver mutation is very easy to get. It's just inside the chemical plant. Head south from AP until you hit the end of the road, then head west until you start "Traveling". When you arrive, head west and south through the gate. There are two mutations, one to the left and one south and east from there. These are screech and iron liver. No hostile mobs path in this area, so it's completely safe. Do not walk more than two or three rooms south of the gate though, as the mobs there are sometimes hostile and can be dangerous to new players. | The Iron Liver mutation is very easy to get.

Summary
You've developed the 'iron liver' mutation!
A reorganized liver filters out blood toxins such as poisons and drugs; unfortunately it also cuts the effectiveness of nanites. On the plus side, it turns excess alcohol into energy the body can use for healing itself and recovering from revival.
Your nanite healing resistance increases by 25 Your THC resistance increases by 40 Your speed resistance increases by 40 Your curare resistance increases by 60 Your alcohol resistance increases by 50 Your spider venom resistance increases by 70 Your PCP resistance increases by 75

The Iron Liver mutation is very easy to get. It's just inside the chemical plant. Head south from AP until you hit the end of the road, then head west until you start "Traveling". When you arrive, head west and south through the gate. There are two mutations, one to the left and one south and east from there. These are screech and iron liver. No hostile mobs path in this area, so it's completely safe. Do not walk more than two or three rooms south of the gate though, as the mobs there are sometimes hostile and can be dangerous to new players.
