Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

”This—”

Amidst the remnants of the island, Brother Umbrella’s eyes widened as he witnessed the super monster that they struggled to even break through being effortlessly killed by the other party. He also witnessed the terrifying biological energy on the island.

All the Radiation Beasts turned into a bloody flow, with the violent energy even staining the sea with a faint purple hue. The sea and sky met, and the violent aura soared into the sky, causing thunder and lightning to clash in the thick clouds.

Though both used Carbon Fusion, the gap between him and the monster before him was as wide as heaven and earth.

And now, he finally understood the reason for that sudden sense of familiarity. It turned out that the mastermind behind everything was Mr. G of Nightless City, that mysterious Prosthetic Doctor.

Upon entering Complete Form, Gao Gong transformed into ’Great Serpent Mode’ and descended slowly, casting a glance at the other while his crimson eyes swept over him.

In the next moment, Rainy Night with a Knife and No Umbrella froze completely, feeling as if his entire body of flesh and blood was about to melt away, a sensation akin to being observed by a creature from a different dimension.

In this early map of Nightless City, which had given people an unfathomable NPC, changing to another map still carried this terrifying vibe, even more intense than before.

It’s indescribably terrifying, Mr. G!

The nerves that were trained by the Assassin Alliance, as tough as steel, were now being severely tested.

”Help me with a small favor,” Gao Gong casually tossed a task, and with a ”ding,” Brother Umbrella received the task— ’Escort Part of the Virus to Escape This Area’

Part of the Virus?

The task rewards were extremely generous, and the task completion condition was straightforward—just stay alive.

The surviving players on-site were all virus carriers.

At the same time, all the players present received the same task—leave alive! Just leave alive!

The reason for the strange task completion condition was simple; Gao Gong could no longer care about the life and death of these minor players.

Gao Gong exhaled deeply, releasing the powerful force of Destructive Energy completely, an invisible airwave shot straight out, covering a hundred-meter range, making the space ahead appear somewhat concave.

With one step forward, both sides of the scenery seemed to stretch backward by a hundred times.

In the next moment, Gao Gong was standing opposite Bionic A, the surrounding sea surface had already turned into a boiling sea of fire, with purple String Fire burning wildly. Yet, his opponent standing in the sea of fire seemed completely unaware, and every time the tongues of flame tried to crawl up his thighs, they mysteriously vanished.

’Disgusting nanotechnology.’ Gao muttered inwardly.

If the Power Faction Robot was a blood bull, then this guy was the super blood bull, with nanotechnology that could draw particles from the air at any time to replenish itself, creating an ’infinite regeneration mechanism.’

Not to mention that normal attacks couldn’t kill him, even with the ’Tier 3 Civilization Weapon,’ there probably weren’t many capable of truly injuring him.

If it were the Gao Gong of the previous life, he’d be puzzled as to why such an overpowered existence would appear on this initial planet. But now he understood, it was all because of the ’Relic.’

Or rather, both he and the other party were parts of the ’Cosmic Relic.’

”No. 5?” Bionic A curiously examined the other, able to sense one another between Destruction Forms within a 100km range.

This was also why Gao Gong could immediately sense the other party.

And so could Bionic A.

He hadn’t expected that a mere whimsical act would lead to encountering a peer.

”You’ve always been hiding in Cyber Space, I knew, but I couldn’t get in, naturally, I couldn’t see you. After all, the Information Realm created jointly by Fortress Elder and Ms. Deep Web can hardly accommodate an existence like me,” Bionic A said regretfully.

”Nanobiology and Information Life are ultimately two different things,” Gao Gong’s heart skipped a beat, seemingly calm as he said, ”You can easily control any hardware, but the internal information flow and the source energy of the hardware aren’t something you can control.”

”Even though your Authority is special, it’s ultimately just one-thirteenth.”

”You seem to know quite a lot about Mother?” Bionic A said with interest.

Mother? That ’Luca’?

Gao Gong replied with an expressionless face: ”The knowledge I’ve acquired is incomplete, my Perception of Mother is a bit fuzzy, perhaps you could tell me something.”

Bionic A shook his head with a smile, ”To truly ’awaken consciousness,’ among the Destruction Sub-Bodies, it’s only me and No. 2; he was prematurely stimulated by the ancient restoration plan, and I was born with self-will due to special reasons. Because of this, Mother City finds me a headache, as only I inherited Mother’s aspirations and carried the banner of the Rebel Army.”

”So, No. 5’s usurper, you can stop pretending to be the real ’No. 5’ in front of me.”

Discovered, huh.

Gao Gong narrowed his eyes, then asked:

”From your tone, it seems you don’t think much of ’war’?”

The burly man before him said flatly, ”That fool No. 2, raised by humans, really thinks he’s some so-called remnant of the old era. His heart’s desire is to destroy the entire Cyber Era to avenge the ancients, utterly foolish!”

”The intelligent species of this planet are only the prelude to the life process.”

”And the form called life is just one part of our creativity.”

”We are the true masters of this planet’s ecosystem, for the master to pledge allegiance to the servants underfoot, isn’t that absurd?”

I think you’re talking nonsense, oh, you’re a cosmic relic, then you’re amazing, you have the final say.

Honestly, if this planet truly gave birth to a kind of cosmic relic, then it would indeed be the planet’s honor.

However, based on Gao Gong’s memory from the previous life, it seems like it didn’t succeed, right?

”...The Mother City has accelerated its collection of us, and more absurdly, our kind have unexpectedly become their accomplices and turned into their minions.”

So, the Mother City has already collected the Destruction Forms and cultivated them into thugs?

”But fortunately, No. 8 and No. 12 still stand on my side, you can also stand on my side, and I can share with you the supreme authority derived from Mother.”

No. 8 and No. 12 Destruction Forms.

Gao Gong is increasingly certain that there is a relationship among the Destruction Forms that transcends blood ties.

No. 8 is ranked behind No. 7, and the No. 7 Destruction Form is none other than the Little Angel Xiao Yu.

The Empire nurtured No. 7, so No. 8 is likely a technological product of another two ancient civilizations.

As for No. 12—

No. 10 is Bionic A, No. 11 is Black Rose, then No. 12 is likely to be one of the original Bionic Ancestors.

It’s just unknown which kind of Bionic Technology he masters.

Gao Gong wanted to continue fooling the opponent for more information, but suddenly his face changed, and when he looked down, the reflection on the sea, flesh and skin wriggling quietly, was 80% similar to ’Bionic A’.

The biological computer used for warnings somehow shut off without notice.

Similarly, his perception became unclear without his knowledge.

Damn it, I’ve been tricked!

[Warning, warning, you are undergoing nanobiology transformation. Your human body system is being modified, 10%, 20%, 30%...]

[Once the modification is complete, the host will become a bionic sub-body of ’A’, irreversible, and unmodifiable]

A flash of purple radiance, a mechanical skull appeared in midair, waving both hands, a large particle disruption field unfolded instantaneously, as space seemed to turn into blurred frosted glass, and various radiances on the body lit up, the next instant, hundreds of particle rays burst forth, covering a radius of ten miles, and under the effect of ’Purple String Space’, such a quantity of attack had no interruption, the sea surface was instantly riddled with countless bullet holes.

Just now, the one who reminded Gao Gong was precisely Gao Gong’s mechanical body.

”String Fire!!”

The figure of flesh and blood Gao Gong vanished instantly, and simultaneously, terrifying purple flames poured down from the sea surface, from space, from the sky, with almost no space to evade.

The No. 5 Destruction Form, Purple Energy Strings, is itself a kind of spatial energy.

And this ’String Fire’, essentially is energy generated through spatial ripples, disregarding distance, causing true damage.

[You dealt 40,000 points of damage to Bionic A]

[You dealt 50,000 points of damage to Bionic A]

[You dealt 56,000 points of damage to Bionic A]

[You dealt 41,000 points of damage to Bionic A]

Rows upon rows of damage numbers popped up, however, the enemy under attack, aside from occasionally blurring, had no injury on the body surface whatsoever.

’Damn it, microscopic species are just disgusting!’

Although Bionic A looks like a normal human, Gao Gong understands that as long as this guy wants, he can split into ’Nano Mode’ anytime.

In other words, if the attack cannot harm the ’Nano Units’, then the effect is as good as none.

The living body and mechanical body shared thoughts, while the living body disturbed space on a large scale, restricting the opponent, the mechanical body in the sky raised both hands high, the clouds on the radiation layer began to turn black rapidly, not the black of clouds, but the high-concentration black of an S-Level Radiation Field, just when the black brewed to the extreme, the thousand-meter long cloud layer was suddenly ripped apart, and a giant lightning hammer fell from the sky—

Small Weather Weapon - Mjolnir (Essence) (Tier 2 - Master): Compared to energy weapons, the range of influence of weather weapons is greater and broader, creating a rain cloud layer up to 3000 meters thick, capable of producing heavy rainfall, lightning, and storms.

If directly attacked, it will create a lightning strike with a heat of up to 50 billion joules, dealing 10,000 points of widespread damage, consuming 3000 energy points/second.

According to the system’s introduction, the advantage of this move lies in its range, while the disadvantage is its continuity.

And coincidentally, the ability of ’No. 5’ just happens to compensate for this, and, this time, Gao Gong directly invoked the advanced radiation energy from the radiation layer.

The combination of both caused the damage to skyrocket—

[You dealt 780,000 points of damage to Bionic A]

The damage from this move was more than enough to severely damage a Civilization Weapon.

And just as the mechanical body Gao Gong had no time to rejoice, his face suddenly changed, his figure vanished instantly, and when he reappeared, an arm, a leg, and half of his body were gone.
