Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 856: Chapter 24: New-Type Data Space

”I’ve become Shinji Ikari?”

Gao Gong mumbled to himself, looking around, almost expecting a circle of men and women smiling and applauding.

”Sea of Life, Primordial Bloodline, Primordial Bloodline!?”

Gao Gong finally touched a blind spot of knowledge. In the previous life, as a Tier Six virtual bigwig, he knew quite a bit about the other three systems, but he had never heard of the Primordial Bloodline.

Especially since, on the system panel, its note was like this.

Sea of Life (Primordial Bloodline): ???

It’s the first time Gao Gong saw a bloodline description full of question marks.

A Tier 4 Bloodline must be SSS-Level, right?

The Information System is the most complex of the four, followed closely by the Carbon-based System, and Gao Gong wasn’t sure if this thing was the Cosmic Bloodline.

Fortunately, there’s no introduction to the Sea of Life, but there is a note for the Primordial Bloodline.

Primordial Bloodline: Every planet that nurtures intelligent life will give birth to a unique Primordial Soup, and the first life nurtured from the Primordial Soup is the Primordial Bloodline. The Primordial Bloodline is the only path toward becoming a Longevity Species; likewise, becoming a Primordial Bloodline grants you a ticket to the gatherings of the ancient beings.

Holy crap, Longevity Species!

Although there are all kinds of Longevity Species in the universe, Gao Gong always remained skeptical about Longevity Species.

Not to mention the various problems species face during evolution, just one point, you’re ’immortal,’ so what about entropy increase? You want to defy the second law of thermodynamics?

As for the ancient beings, Gao Gong knew them well; they were those old entities that existed since the beginning of the universe.

For example, behind the Mechanical Split Star Cyber Test Field, the Civilization Leader of the Level 7 Civilization is a standard ancient being.

These old entities have a lot of good stuff on them, such as incomplete Giant Structures, Cosmic Relic Blueprints, and even the legendary Marvels.

There’s potential!

After imagining the future, Gao Gong quickly returned to the system panel.

Planet Will: ??

Another question mark.

But Gao Gong vaguely understood the meaning of this question mark.

Little Lady No. 2 hadn’t appeared.

Gao Gong stared thoughtfully at the planet beneath him, where within the radiation energy covering the globe, a faint silhouette of a slender loli could be seen.

As well as that faintly visible grand tree.

”The power of the Spirit of Ecology is constantly repairing,” Gao Gong murmured to himself.

If the body of the Memory Mother doesn’t appear, Little Lady No. 2 won’t emerge.

And once the Memory Mother appears, as the Planet Will, Little Lady No. 2 will appear and challenge this Tier 5 Information Monster.

Gao Gong silently shook his head.

The Tier 4 Sea of Life is likely still no match for the Memory Mother.

In the Information Ocean, there’s hierarchy suppression, but it’s not just brute forcing your way up for promotion.

One still needs the maneuver of a seasoned operator.

With a thought, Gao Gong invested a massive amount of Experience, leveling from 50 to 60 in one go.

At this stage, leveling Experience is already calculated in the billions.

With 1 billion Experience spent, Gao Gong finally touched Tier 2 Perfection.

[Your level has reached 60; would you like to change professions?]

[Your conditions do not meet the requirements for a profession change, please try again later]

A Tier 3 Profession requires Tier 3 technology for a change.

This is something that the technology of a planet civilization cannot provide, nor can the Cyber Test Field.

Moreover, the vacant Transformation Rate appeared again.

Behind the Mechanical System/Biological System, originally was 25%+50%+50%+75%+100%

Now there’s another +100%

The transformation space for both systems increased by another 100%.

And after leveling up ten times, Gao Gong gained an additional 100 free attribute points. After some thought, he didn’t add them. He closed his eyes, and upon reopening them, found himself underwater.

Only this time it was a bit different.

In the deep sea, Gao Gong didn’t feel any pressure, just an indescribable comfort.

The blessing of the Planet Will had turned Gao Gong into a child of the planet, as if no disaster on the Mechanical Split Star would affect him.

This was a mystical feeling.

Gao Gong didn’t exert himself; he let the water pressure gently float him to the shore. During this process, Gao Gong’s presence gradually merged into the ocean, until no trace was left.

During this time, several Radiation Beasts from the seabed swam over, but they were indifferent to Gao Gong.

Until Gao Gong floated to the surface.

The snow fell heavier, thick as fists, directly covering the sea.

The cloud layers above thickened, and the oxygen content in the air started to surge.

In an oxygen-rich environment, the ecosystem will evolve, and the emergence of over a meter tall Radiation Ants and over two meters long Electronic Dragonflies is highly likely.

Radiation + Oxygen Rich

All species on this planet are gradually developing towards gigantism.

During this process, species that fail to adapt will become extinct.

’After Memory Loss, Personality Reset, Neurotheft, what’s the next wave? Oh, right, Conceptual Parasite.’

This conceptual body does not just include the nine big data conceptual bodies consumed by Turing before.

To be precise, entities like Miss Cyberpedia, Pipe Sovereign, and Artificial Intelligence Ghost, are considered Cyber Network conceptual bodies.

Corporate Will is also a type of conceptual body, known as Local Area Network Conceptual Body.

And the wave of Conceptual Parasite is when numerous Corporate Wills are parasitized by Memory Worms, then consumed one giant corporation after another.

By the way, even the Super Intelligence of the Six Major Inspector Departments was successfully consumed in this wave.

”I hope Miss Ke can hold on a little longer, at least until I finish the major plot of ’Fortress Fall’, before getting devoured.”

Gao Gong muttered to himself.

With a flash of purple light, Gao Gong’s figure disappeared once again.

...

Meanwhile, at an encrypted node on the virtual level, Paradise Bird walked out of the flames with a pair of young boy and girl, and found Gao Yuanyuan.

The boy was a shota, son of the Cloud Wing Assassin, with a feminine name, called Hongxin.

The girl was Terria’s sister, with a slightly masculine name, called Ryan.

The young boy and girl’s appearances were impressive, the boy was a handsome little guy, and the girl was as beautiful as a blonde Barbie doll.

Beside Gao Yuanyuan, there was also a chubby girl, sitting on the ground munching on a chicken leg, her mouth greasy, having no concern for her image.

This girl, seeing Paradise Bird, cheerfully extended her chubby hand.

”Little Hee-Hee, did you bring me food? I’m hungry.”

Paradise Bird smiled, and with preparation, grabbed a bucket of fried chicken from the flames.

The chubby girl’s eyes lit up upon seeing the bucket, and she pounced quickly.

However, she was lifted up by Gao Yuanyuan, who stared at her until she felt guilty and protested, ”Alright, alright, I won’t eat anymore, alright? I’m so young, and you’re making me diet, Sister Gao, how can you be so heartless? Be careful, or I’ll accuse you of mistreating your real mom.”

Gao Yuanyuan sighed helplessly.

”You can only eat one piece.”

”Alright!” The chubby girl’s eyes lit up again as she grabbed the bucket of fried chicken, clearly not planning to eat just one piece.

”Alright, Eliza, take these two kids for a walk, I have something to discuss with your Sister Hee.”

”Okay, you two newcomers, follow me,” the chubby girl casually beckoned, and the boy and girl quickly followed.

”Eliza’s reincarnation—” Paradise Bird pondered for a moment before finding the right words, ”is a bit plump.”

”Indeed, she does have a bit of a sweet tooth,” Gao Yuanyuan said with some trouble.

”Alright, enough about that,” Paradise Bird’s expression turned serious, ”I’m afraid I’ll have to go in. I can feel it, I can’t suppress it much longer. I came here this time to entrust these two children to you.”

Gao Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, ”I can feel it too; its power has strengthened once again.”

”From now on, it’s up to you alone.” Paradise Bird looked at her with some concern.

Gao Yuanyuan did not show much loneliness but smiled, ”I believe my brother will soon suppress that monster, and by then, everyone will return, and everyone’s memories will come back too.”

”Let’s hope so.”

Gao Yuanyuan nodded and closed her eyes.

A house of information protection slowly unfolded.

At this time, the reincarnated Eliza was also wandering with the young boy and girl.

Hongxin and Ryan weren’t only exceptionally talented but had strong backgrounds; one was the resurrected sister of a Super Hacker planning for millennia, and the other was the son of a Cloud Killer, yet they looked around curiously in this virtual space.

”The data fluctuations here are similar to those in cyberspace, yet a bit different,” Hongxin couldn’t help but say after a moment.

”That’s because it’s another type of virtual space, ahh, chicken legs are delicious, aren’t you eating?”

”Another type? Is it that amazing?” Ryan’s face was like a Barbie doll’s, yet his tone was very proud.

”If I wanted to hack it, it wouldn’t be that hard.”

”Oh, then give it a try,” Eliza said while gnawing on a chicken leg, quietly watching.

Ryan didn’t waste words and started to use various hacking methods; suddenly, the surrounding environment was filled with mosaics, and electronic voids appeared.

”Look, I’ve hacked in successfully.”

But Ryan’s face quickly changed, as the expected reality didn’t appear even after crossing the mosaics, and they were still in the original place.

”Hmph!”

A white mask suddenly appeared on Ryan’s face, and for a moment, the data fluctuations around him surged.

His methods were no longer limited to ordinary hacker tactics, involving not just some official electronic firewalls and brain-machine masteries, but even some information techniques.

These were good things left by the world’s former number one hacker.

Eliza poked Hongxin curiously, ”Is he on a diet or something?”

”Uh, not sure, probably not.”

”If he’s not on a diet, why such a big temper?”

”Perhaps... tsundere?”

After a while, Ryan looked around, panting, but it was still the original place. Facing the blank stares of the two across, Ryan’s face turned red, and he proudly said:

”The electronic firewall here is indeed done quite well; I almost figured it out.”

Eliza spat out several chicken bones and quietly said:

”Actually, you’ve already figured it out. Haven’t you noticed that the place we’re at now is no longer the original data space?”

Hongxin was stunned for a moment, but then was the first to realize.

”Our physical bodies, have disappeared?”
