Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 979: Chapter 85: Flesh Celestial King

The plane is feeding its own eagle.

This eagle has pitch-black feathers, sharp claws, and a penetrating gaze. It scans the surroundings, exuding a fierce aura as if it’s about to tear the surrounding space apart.

Many people look down on the plane, believing that his practice of the ’Sunflower Manual’ by performing self-castration is an evil path.

He belonged to those who could ascend but would disdain to do so, forming a chain of contempt.

But in the eyes of true high-end players, the plane is far from simple.

Especially after winning two out of three battles against Brother Umbrella.

Mere castration couldn’t possibly lead to such a significant increase in power.

If castration were really that effective, then this world should belong to eunuchs.

Yet the plane couldn’t care less about explaining, remarking disdainfully to those who couldn’t grasp the game, ”I make even a bird work to death for me.”

What he grasped was the core aspect of ’Power of Radiation’: castration and mutation.

In plain terms, he can adjust his human body transformation rate.

The human body has eight systems, each with a transformation potential of 100%.

However, through certain methods, be it transferring or castration, one can lower the transformation rate of one system to increase the transformation limit of another system.

For example, after castration, the plane outright destroyed his reproductive system, reducing it from 100% to 0%.

In exchange, his neural system broke through human limits, reaching 150%.

And now, it’s even more so.

The eagle in front of him was originally a radiation creature cultivated from an organ. It had no digestive system.

But now, it was eating bird food.

Upon closer inspection, one would notice faint scratches on the plane’s abdomen.

The plane installed his digestive system onto the eagle, essentially castrating his own digestive system.

The benefit being, his neural system transformation rate surpassed 180%.

No wonder in a private encounter, even someone as strong as Brother Umbrella couldn’t help but lament—

”My realm is Rainy Night with a Knife and No Umbrella, yet I didn’t expect that you’ve reached the stage of discarding both the knife and the umbrella. At the same level, you’re almost invincible.”

And this transfer of human systems has already touched upon the level of forbidden transformation. The plane specially sought guidance from Sister Ji at the far end of the interstellar other shore, who was engaged in destructive work, to barely complete it.

The current plane can even visually perceive the fluctuations of the biological magnetic field, using it to indirectly kill people.

”I remember there’s a profession in the faction called ’Neural Wanderer,’ which should suit me. If I convert to it, I won’t just kill with the help of the biological magnetic field, I could even use Cyber Space to hunt monsters.” ’

The plane thought silently.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and simultaneously, the A-level Radiation Beast eagle he was raising started calling out.

With superior sensing, he immediately sensed something was wrong.

A powerful biological magnetic field enveloped the ship’s hull, a magnitude he had never seen before, not even in an SS-Level Radiation Beast.

In a trance, he seemed to see walls covered in flesh, and out of the vast cosmic space, a flesh giant slowly crawled out.

...

Meanwhile, in another room, Rainy Night with a Knife and No Umbrella was intently wiping his knife, the AI module on the blade chirping happily.

”Here... Use some force... Ah... Don’t use too much force, annoying~”

Brother Umbrella’s eye twitched slightly. The Tier 3 AI weapon module he bought from Baozi worked well but wasn’t completely proper.

Suddenly, the blade emitted a clear ’clang’ sound, releasing a strong killing intent.

Yet the room was empty, Brother Umbrella’s figure vanished without a trace.

”Oh, strange, where’s the master? Without him, who will insert me? Quick, insert!”

The blade continued to yell melodiously and frantically, yet it couldn’t reach the sheath beside it.

...

Compared to high-end players like the plane and Brother Umbrella, most players following the biological route had no such premonition; it seemed, suddenly, darkness overcame their sight and they were kicked offline.

However, having left their bodies, Brother Umbrella and the plane seemed to leap out of their shells, entering another massive biological entity, becoming one tiny cell within.

Is this Flesh Ascension?

The plane seemed to sense something, finding a ’cell kind’ with consciousness in a river-like vein.

Brother Umbrella, is that you?

Plane! You entered too?

What’s happening now? It seems like we’ve merged?

Hard to say,’ Brother Umbrella hesitated, ’I’ve heard of an ascension method in the black market called Flesh Ascension.’

So, have we ascended?

Probably, not sure.’

After a moment of silence, the plane couldn’t help but say, ’I opened my System Panel and it says I’ve entered the forced state of Flesh Celestial King, my blood bar is gone.’

Me too, plus the human body transformation rate is changing too fast, the numbers are jumping erratically.’

If it weren’t for maintaining clear consciousness, Brother Umbrella would have suspected whether there was a system crash.

Whose body’s transformation rate jumps crazily in five digits!

He almost died of fright.

...

At this moment, the Star Destroyer was stationed on an unknown interstellar route.

Light-speed Spaceships must travel on official interstellar routes since these routes are regularly cleaned of space debris, preventing collision with asteroids in light-speed mode.

But superluminal spaceships don’t care about this, as they don’t travel in ordinary ways but involve diving into spatial gaps and dimensional ascension reductions, avoiding physical entities entirely.

Unknowingly, the Star Destroyer had canceled its superluminal mode.

It hovered by a large-scale asteroid, about a third the size of the moon, nearly the size of an original planet in terms of volume. Next to it, the Star Destroyer was like an ant to an elephant.

And at this moment, this asteroid began to fragment under invisible giant force, mountains of rock splitting constantly from its surface, between the ’mountains,’ molten rock streaming like blood gushing out of cracks.

Apparently brewing to an extremity, in the next instant, a thousand-handed, white-armed, thousand-eyed giant split out of the asteroid as if tearing it apart to create the world.

Feature added in Biological Computer version 7.0—Flesh Celestial King!

Using the powerful computational power of the Biological Computer to simulate a trace of the Power of Ascension, then using this ability to absorb all organisms and evolve into a massive cosmic entity.

Such capability gives Gao Gong a strong sense of déjà vu.

Planet-level Mechanical Transformation!

Except, this is the biological version.

The same Giant Transformation allows uniting all entities into one, one is the Mechanical Sovereign, the other, the Flesh Celestial King, having striking similarities.

Yet the prerequisites differ.

The former requires massive infrastructure and billions of machines, with consciousness as the core.

The latter depends on bloodline intensity and biological species, needing high-configured biological computers as a prerequisite.

And from current observations, the role of the ’Flesh Celestial King’ seems evidently stronger than ’Mechanical Sovereign Transformation,’ as it can be used.

’It’s time to give players following the biological route some benefits,’ Gao Gong thought silently.

Yet what Gao Gong didn’t know was, after he left the ’Wisdom Circle,’ multiple consciousness waves swept across his ’login’ location.

’Confirmed, no Royal Family observed the ’Red Pillar.’

’The intruder’s login area is not within civilization boundaries.’

’Obtained residual biological data, currently being parsed...’
