Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 654 - 185: Severing the Giant Pillar

The original Gao Gong, due to the chosen path and level, possessed the skills of a Master of the Virtual, yet could not fully utilize them due to cyber-induced impotence.

Moreover, after maxing out as a Cyber Hacker, the profession could no longer be upgraded.

However, the current Gao has finally found a hint of his past life, as if a thought could open a virtual space and the code in his hands spins, initiating a network revolution.

Gao Gong looked around, even able to see through the sky and spot the three mountains pressing upon this planet.

"Refreshing, truly refreshing! Extremely refreshing!"

Gao Gong laughed heartily in mid-air.

Thunder roared in the sky, as if heaven itself was angry.

All S-Level mutants received battle orders and took to the sky one by one.

Simultaneously, two ’Mechanical Giant Pillars’ rose from the ground, growing larger by the second.

"Unable to beat me online, so you want to eliminate me physically? You’re too despicable, Mother!"

Above the network cloud, among the starry sky, ’Mother’ looked fierce, abdomen empty, as bloodied code poured from ruptures, showing no signs of stopping.

The biological computer, which had upgraded to version 8.0, dropped two tiers to 6.0, with data severely leaking.

This virtual level confrontation, she lost, and it was a disastrous defeat!

"You did it intentionally!"

Both sides made moves, and ’Mother’s’ move was to leverage the computational power from billions of brain-machines to forcibly devour the 2.0 version biological computer, Gao Gong.

If she could reincarnate him, it would mean gaining a new account directly.

But who would’ve thought he could toss about like this.

Forcing digestion of the opponent proved impossible.

The more oppression, the more the opponent integrated with her.

Even borrowed her power to reverse-engineer ’virus antibodies’.

To the extent that while she was engrossed in digestion, he opened up a new battlefield in reality, the so-called ’Twenty-fifth Generation Virus,’ essentially her early version’s source code.

By the time she realized, it was already too late.

Now, she’s left with two choices—

Either, she goes all out and forcibly merges with the opponent, with the risk that he might use ’network cloud’ power, frantically deciphering her source code and completely retaliating against her.

Or, she pulls him out from within, but at this moment, the fusion is very deep. Attempting a ’caesarean section’ comes at a huge cost.

She chose the second.

The cost being, her power is absorbed extensively by the opponent.

’Mother’ flashed a painful look in her eyes, gritted her teeth, and took a deep breath.

In the next moment, stars flickered incessantly, with thick data clouds once again covering the sky, pouring down rain that confused the senses, blurring the line between virtual reality.

Her targeted goal—was the opponent!

"Kill him!"

At this instant, all forms of attacks came roaring in, from S-Level superpowers to Tier 3 civilization weapons, along with various standard weaponry of large groups, completely ignoring ally side.

The first to rush over was advanced vibrations that tore through space, covering every area, causing massive true damage.

Even the ’instant teleportation’ of Destruction Form couldn’t dodge this move, due to rapid changes in space parameters making capture impossible.

If it were the earlier Gao Gong, he couldn’t evade either.

But now, after space’s grand waves swept through, even the foremost S-Level mutants were spitting blood, with one even experiencing bodily explosion.

’Try this move.’

Among a slew of system prompts, Gao Gong found something familiar.

His figure vanished amid the raging waves in this space.

The next moment, countless codes and digits suddenly emerged from the air behind an S-Level mutant, quickly assembling into a human form.

A hand, in between virtual and reality, fiercely pierced the opponent’s flesh.

Each S-Level mutant wasn’t a Hexagon Warrior and possessed their own weaknesses.

But the shortcoming is often wrapped by strengths, which is why S-Level mutants are powerful.

For example, this ’Diamond Man’ in front, his superpower is having his whole body covered in ’diamonds,’ with extremely tough physical defense, and energy beams refracted by his special physical structure.

Yet his weakness, ’true blood volume,’ is surprisingly frail, with less than ten thousand points.

When Gao Gong penetrated the barrier between virtual and reality, the result was insta-kill on this fellow.

[You killed S-Level mutant ’Diamond Man’, experience +5 million, specialization points +2]

Compared to A-level Radiation Beasts, S-Level mutants give a lot of experience but offer very little extras.

Following suit, soon, four thin-blooded S-Level mutants were cleared from the field by Gao Gong.

And Gao Gong has thoroughly understood the traits regarding this move—

G System, version 4.0 update.

Added feature—Artificial Virtual Space

Artificial Virtual Space: Virtualize your life system, temporarily create a large data node, convert genes into source codes, transform body organs into manipulatable software, and turn metabolic motion into running programs... The coverage of this node will be determined by one’s life strength.

The so-called virtual space is a data node within cyber space, a haven for data, a paradise for hackers and AI.

By converting himself into a data node, Gao Gong can freely manipulate his data, perform uploads, and downloads.

Here, he is a god!

And physical-level space wrinkles naturally won’t affect the network.

Data transfer within ’node’ is equivalent to another virtual version of ’instant teleportation’.

Though this type of ’instant teleportation’ can only occur within the ’data node’ range.

With Gao Gong’s current life strength, just within 500 meters for upload and download.

But it’s unaffected by reality.

Moreover, ’cross-space data transmission’ and ’attack virtualization’ are just one of the functions of ’Artificial Virtual Space’.

More features are yet to be developed.

With this instant teleportation, the large-scale space impacts of the continent plate impact device are basically useless against him.

And he finally had the time to check his attribute growth.

At least the attributes and skills related to combat, he had to understand them thoroughly.

Blood Volume +30000

Biological Energy +30000

Another exaggerated increase.

Equivalent to directly adding a ’Demon Mountain.’

The small boss he encountered early on.

This increase comes from a 60% rise in the biological system transformation rate.

And this rise almost reached the limit of Gao Gong’s organism.

Each level’s transformation rate is different.

The transformation rate at level 10 is 25%, which is the maximum transformation the human body can accept at this level.

Level 10~20 transformation limit is 50%

Level 20~30 transformation limit is 50%

After Tier 2, the transformation limit increased once.

Level 30~40 transformation limit is 75%

25%+50%+50%+75%=200%

Therefore, the transformation limit at level 40 is a total of 200%.

Before Gao Gong, the total biological transformation rate of all systems reached 140%. This additional 60% biological transformation directly reached the limit of level 40.

In other words, the level limits the ’biological computer’ version updates.

If Gao Gong upgrades again.

The system version can still evolve.

This is also the reason for [Biological Computer G System, 6.0 update ongoing].

A global-level biological giant, decades of corporate evolution, the collective will brought by it, was fiercely absorbed by Gao Gong.

Simply exhilarating couldn’t describe it anymore.

Directly satisfying to the stomach.

Moreover, the changes in ’biological system transformation rate’ are not only reflected in numbers.

The full-level biological transformation rate allowed Gao Gong to directly enter a new level.

His thoughts could simultaneously disperse into millions, each like a living human brain thinking, comprehending.

And when he focused, time slowed down hundreds of times more.

Everyone seemed to be in slow motion.

Not just movements, but even the enemy’s thoughts.

This was a feeling of ’controlling everything.’

And this feeling will grow stronger with each stage of full-level transformation.

Gao Gong’s opponents were four squads of S-Level mutants, yet, at this moment, he entered a mysterious state.

In this state, everyone’s biological magnetic fields fused together, and he became the master of this field.

’I should first clear out the obstacles.’

Gao Gong’s thoughts stirred, and his figure disintegrated into countless codes again, dissipating into the air. By the time he appeared again, he was already in front of the mechanical giant pillar.

Purple String Space expanded.

Tens of thousands of space strings focused on one point.

Spatial cutting attack launched!!

On the enormous mechanical giant pillar, whose top inserts into the radiation cloud layer, a massive crack over a thousand meters long abruptly appeared at the mid-segment.

The heavy mechanical outer shell and the high-speed rotating pillar body had no defense against such an attack.

Silently and unnoticed, the second spatial cutting attack was launched again!

Another crack over a thousand meters appeared at the mid-section of the original crack.

The third spatial cutting!

The fourth spatial cutting!

The fifth spatial cutting!

In an instant, purple radiance flashed five times, and after five times, in the astonished eyes of all onlookers.

The Tier 3 civilization weapon, a super weapon capable of piercing through a continent, this giant mechanism weapon, slowly split into two, collapsing like pushing a golden mountain and toppling a jade pillar.

[You destroyed a Tier 3 civilization weapon for the first time, Planet Reputation +2, automatically acquired the title ’Giant Mechanism Destroyer’]

Giant Mechanism Destroyer (upgradable): High-level weapon developers maintain absolute respect for you, after all, madam, you wouldn’t want your painstakingly developed weapon to lose effectiveness, Super Weapon Damage +5%

All onlookers were left speechless, their eyes wide open.

Not to mention strangers, the colleagues who continuously watched the battlefield using military satellites had complex expressions.

"I used to criticize him lightly, was my voice too loud?" Little Woman murmured.

"Brother Gao is so formidable, can Sister Du handle it?" Secretary Bean Sprouts said.

"I am his kin, this move must be my family heritage, I must learn it!" Valkyrie said with bright eyes.

...

Meanwhile, in the Black Bar, many hackers were also dumbfounded watching this scene.

In the cyber hacker chat group, it was rare for no one to speak.

At the Bionic Man headquarters, an overbearing female president wearing black stockings, crossed her legs, smiling as she watched this scene.
