Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

The abilities of the Mechanical System can only be used after undergoing Mechanical Transformation.

The superpowers of Carbon-Based Creatures also require Biological Transformation to be harnessed.

So, in the early days, Gao Gong had ’Level 6 Virtual Sovereign’ knowledge, but couldn’t convert it into action.

However, as Gao Gong’s level increased, especially with higher Perception and Wisdom attributes, and after transitioning to a Hacker, some abilities from the past life have begun to ’unlock’.

’Fantasy Dance’ is a very special ability in the Virtual Realm ’Fantasy Land’, perceived as a miracle by some planetary natives and even top scientists.

Whatever you think of, it must come to be, and it will guide you.

This is a top-tier virtual creation technology.

At this stage, although Gao Gong cannot replicate such technology to create massive transformations, he can use a low-grade version of ’Fantasy Dance’ to download back the Gao Yuanyuan source code already uploaded.

The girl spread her wings like a Butterfly, gracefully dancing around the unmatched young man.

Her eyes opened, as if reflecting a sky full of stars.

The young man smiled, gently stroked her head, and softly said, ”Go back.”

In reality, the Mechanical Monster opened its eyes once more, and the Gao Yuanyuan before him turned from virtual to real, becoming a living person again.

And not an ’Electronic Brain Ghost’!

The Mechanical Monster turned its head, staring at the projection, ”So that’s it, your real goal is to create a backdoor to the electronic brain.”

The projection, with its face unclear, had its smile freeze.

”Transform the living into special Informational Organisms, so that no matter who wins the World Corporate War, you can use this ’ghost woman’ to freely enter anyone’s electronic brain, modify their personality, influence their goals, letting the entire world develop according to your plan.”

”Such stealthy meddling is truly the style of the Cloud Nobility.”

”How did you know about the Electronic Brain Plan?” the projection said with a gloomy voice.

”Want to know? I’ll tell you during the World Corporate War. Oh, I forgot, your established companies, controlled by the Cloud Nobility, have been lost to the emerging new companies representing the direction of technological development.”

”Of the top 50 companies on last year’s list, only 9 remain on this year’s list. That’s the ruthless progress of technology.”

”Previous identities are useless in this mad era, the Will of the Mother City treats everyone equally.”

”Decaying flesh is destined to be cut away.”

Gao Gong didn’t originate this statement; it was the future, when Mas Sharpness’s chief CEO, a zealot who fed himself to the Corporate Will, said these words.

”Will you leave on your own, or should I send you back?”

”Or, you could wait for the ’Mechanic’ to arrive and see if your noble privilege still holds there.”

The other party gave the Mechanical Monster a deep look, and the holographic projection shut down directly.

”If you weren’t so far away, and with insufficient time, I’d show you what genuine Personality Modification technology is.”

The Mechanical Monster turned, the armor on its surface retracted, countless neural bundles shot out, plugging into one data socket after another, downloading numerous biological data, transformation plans, and research technologies into the prepared storage chip.

[You have obtained the Electronic Brain Transformation Plan - Cortex Technology]

[You have obtained the First-Generation Electronic Woman Transformation Plan]

[You have obtained Professional Knowledge in Brain Chemistry]

[You have obtained Professional Knowledge in Brain Structure]

[You have obtained Professional Knowledge in Electronic Rhapsody]

[You have obtained Professional Knowledge in Memory Datafication]

You have obtained…

A large amount of data was extracted, with 5 pieces of Professional Knowledge alone. In terms of knowledge reserve, the Cloud Nobility has an immense base, their only issue being that, like feudal landlords, they only wish to lock these ’treasures’ in cellars for enjoyment, seldom thinking of advancing the Technology Tree.

This is a common affliction among them, being road-dependent, stagnant, and difficult to change.

”Hey, the Mechanic is mobilizing, I’ll withdraw first, remember to pay the money for the Hacker Chip into my account, 100,000 Mechanic Tokens per chip, don’t forget!” Ahong’s voice came through the voice control system.

The pupil in the Mechanical Monster’s eye blinked.

In the transformation room, Gao Gong’s eyes were tightly closed, one eyeball empty.

An enormous, virtual eyeball, the size of a basketball, appeared above the Welfare Institute, exhaling large amounts of mist. Covered by the mist, all monitoring devices began to fail.

…

The Main Brain Area, also known as the Upper Midtown District, covered approximately 900,000 square meters of super Mechanical Architecture.

One launch silo after another slowly opened.

Beneath the black pits of the silo covers, a single red dot appeared, then two, three, finally densely packed with red lights.

In the next moment, countless Mechanical Eyeliners surged forth, numbering in the tens of thousands.

Each Mechanical City actually has a Mechanical Legion guarding it, although each Mechanical Legion has different Soldier Species.

This is the true power of the Mother City system to suppress an entire planet.

Typically, a Mechanical Legion numbers one hundred thousand.

And mobilizing ten thousand is equivalent to suppressing a rebellion.

Amidst the Gale, countless Mechanical Eyeliners flew into the cloud layer, forming a giant female face, high nose bridge, hollow eyes, smooth chin, like an elegant and exquisite Ancient Greek statue, exuding a compassionate aura, yet with the aura of a terrifying, annihilating god.

This is the ’Mechanic’, the true master of Nightless City.

The Mechanical Monster lifted Gao Yuanyuan, the Neuronal Armor automatically covering her body.

The operational mechanism of the Mother City is different from a government, it doesn’t care whether you kill or not, or whether you cause trouble or not.

It only cares about two things.

One, whether you violated the Mother City’s orders.

Second, have you been ’progressing’?

For it, everything is prepared for ’social evolution’, including itself.

The mechanical monster steps forward one by one, walking through the mist.

He himself had ample alibi, but Gao Yuanyuan might disappear for a while.

Suddenly, his footsteps paused, the next moment, the mist was split, and a crimson blade light appeared before the mechanical monster.

The blade looked like a branding iron, burning with blue smoke, its cutting angle, force, speed, all reached a harmonious and transparent level, just like a master calligrapher writing, penetrating three layers of paper.

This penetration left the mechanical monster with no room to dodge.

Over a dozen energy jets on the arm opened instantly, the fierce energy particle beam produced a late-hit that appeared first, right in front of the opponent’s head.

This was a fighting style of life for life.

The girl wielding the blade barely hesitated, using her blade to lead her, her figure folded mid-air like a flying bird, the blade light rubbed against the mechanical arm, blinding sparks ignited like a firebird.

The two passed by each other.

”What the hell?”

In the modification room, Gao Gong muttered to himself, looking at his intact arm, feeling a slight pain.

At the same time, the mechanical monster glanced at the huge crack on the mechanical arm, turned his head, in the crimson horizon, the mecha girl propped herself on the ground, slowly stood up, her eyes serious and earnest.

”Release the hostage!!!”

”Who are you?” A deep, hoarse voice sounded.

The girl’s appearance seemed very slender, wearing tight combat leather, lightweight metal sheets covering her delicate arm bones rising and falling, the three-stage metal spine had marks of metal line twisting; the only thing that could be considered ’high-tech’ was the ten-barrel sensor on her fingers, oh, and the electric blade embedded in the inside of her arm.

”Red Rain Street, voluntary peacekeeper, Xiao Yu!”

The girl forcefully swung her arm, the electric blade popped out again, the electric light crackled on the blade.

”One more time, let go of the hostage!!”

The mechanical monster lowered its head to look at its face, then glanced at Gao Yuanyuan bound with ’five flowers’, let out a long sigh, what a mess this was.

’Mechanic’ is coming soon!

The next moment, the carbon atom reactor in the chest shone brightly, at least 40 energy jets lit up, the mechanical monster’s speed suddenly broke through three times the speed of sound, blasting in front of the opponent, the giant gun in its hand like a truck with the pedal to the metal.

Xiao Yu’s eyes widened in horror, then calmed as she closed them.

’Clear mind, calm aura, dominate armor and blade.’

Gao Gong immediately felt that the opponent’s neural signal had disappeared.

The opponent’s entire Whiteboard prosthetic body achieved 100% body integration as the blade light danced, the power suddenly breaking through to 200%.

The blade light spiraled in rings, like a bird flying through the sea of data.

The mechanical monster suddenly grinned, the next moment, the giant gun retracted violently into the palm, and from the chest, spiky mechanical whips suddenly protruded.

The girl closed her eyes, the blade light frantically striking the whip shadow, sparks and fire fell like rain.

The mechanical monster took a deep breath, a large amount of flesh and blood was sucked into the abdomen, and with the compression of the reproductive soldier body, a blood-red tentacle abruptly thrust out.

The girl only managed to avoid vital areas, getting hit in the abdomen and sent flying ten meters away.

Feeling the mechanic-like increasing terrifying pressure, Gao Gong’s patience finally ran out.

Silvery long spindles shot out one by one, hovering in the air, the spindle tips slowly lighting up.

”One last chance, get out of the way!”

Xiao Yu struggled to stand up, the mecha core in her abdomen constantly signaling overload, every prosthetic on her body seemed on the verge of disintegration.

This monster before her made her feel a sense of invincibility, and those lit energy weapons further made her realize that one hit would mean immediate death.

She withdrew the arm blade, the blade like a crescent moon, gripped by both hands, with a line of text on the blade slowly lighting up.

Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, defending the country and protecting the people.

”One last chance, release the hostage!” the girl stubbornly said.

Gao Gong’s mouth curved into a smile.

”Interesting.”

Energy lasers fell like rain, Xiao Yu always managed to dodge the direction of the energy weapons’ fire, running madly towards Gao Gong with a special footwork, walls, ground, vehicles, obstacles, became her parkour launch points.

Her person and her blade strictly followed an encrypted nonary cyclic code.

The combat program formed by these codes burst her power beyond limits.

The blade deflected mechanical whips, blood-red tentacles, even the neural bundles and single molecule lines imperceptible to the naked eye.

With the final slide, the girl leapt up, person with blade, the blade tip fiercely stabbed into the mechanical monster’s chest, her whole person hanging on the opponent’s body.

The mechanical monster looked down at the girl under one meter five, her fearless eyes staring at the bloodline-spitting monster.

Chest armor slowly opened, revealing an empty hull, only countless blood threads entwining and decomposing.

”Too bad, your damage isn’t enough!”

The mechanical monster raised a metal fist, punching the opponent unconscious.

”Forget it, why argue with this little brat, time to run.”

Shortly after the mechanical monster disappeared, a large figure made of mechanical eyeliner appeared at the welfare institute.

Numerous mechanical eyeliners were emitted, and soon, the secrets of the welfare institute were downloaded into the mainframe of the Mechanical Main Brain.

Also appeared in the database of the Mother City ’Cybertron’.
