Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 790: Chapter 314: Cyber Engine

Xiao Family’s number one genius, Omen Machine driver, Martial God, No. 7 Destruction Master, Xiao Yu, died quite disgracefully.

It was probably when that white worm egg swelled to its limit, almost the size of a basketball court, that the entire body burst open, turning into a pool of worm eggs, which soon became transparent and disappeared.

Meanwhile, near the coastline, Xiao Yuanshan couldn’t hold on either. As a fellow ’Polluter’, once the nutrients for the Memory Worm were insufficient, he was the second to suffer.

A vast amount of information radiance overflowed from his body, flowing into the space. The heavy, domineering Bio-Fusion Armor, as sturdy as steel and iron, vanished without a trace in a few breaths, leaving only the old, bony body. Xiao Yuanjun opened his mouth wide, his cloudy old eyes seemingly recalling something, with something seemingly flowing from the corner of his eyes.

However, his expression froze.

Endless golden light blossomed from the Beast Tide, as a black-clothed figure slowly walked towards him, with a pair of resolute eyes looking at him calmly.

"C-Crown Prince."

"Xiao Qing, do you know what the crime of treason is?"

Xiao Yuanjun revealed a strange smile. He wanted to say something, but his tongue had already disappeared.

But in the eyes of the ’Black Prince’, he understood the other’s intention.

"So, as a top Mechanical Dragon Tiger General, executed by the Crown Prince, do you have any objections?"

Xiao Yuanjun bowed his head with difficulty.

The ’Black Prince’ drew out the Ship-Slaying Sword, and in the next moment, numerous golden sword lights rose behind him.

The sword light flashed, and the head fell to the ground.

The appearance of the ’Black Prince’ gradually became clear, revealing the face of Xiao Yu, the foolish expression was gone, replaced by a rare seriousness.

Meanwhile, the system prompt sound rang—

[[Planet Task: Descent Faction—Elimination of Polluters]Task Completed]

[Task Rewards: Experience +5 million, Specialization Points *10, a random Tier 3 blueprint, Planet Reputation +1, History Line Change +1%]

At the same time, a massive Starship appeared in the sky, emitting a spotlight-like glow from the ship that landed on the Imperial Guards, making the figures of the Imperial Guards disappear on the spot.

This is a unique recall function of the Starship.

Soon, all the figures of the Imperial Guards disappeared.

Then Xiao Yu was also summoned over.

Lastly, it was Gao Gong. After a whirlwind tour, he appeared in the cockpit of the Starship, facing Director Du, who was covered in wires.

Xiao Yu was next to him, holding the Ship-Slaying Sword, dazed and lost in thought.

Gao Gong directly opened the Alliance Panel, as an NPC of his own faction, he wanted to observe the other’s attributes without even needing to investigate.

If his eyes weren’t playing tricks on him, he just saw the ’Black Prince’, who is actually the true ’Doomsday Black Emperor’!

Black Prince Possession: As the former owner of the ’Soul Armor’, the Black Prince left a fragment of his soul in the ’Black Emperor’. Only the imperial citizens recognized by the Crown Prince can inherit the true legacy of the Black Emperor.

Total Level: 80

Blood Volume: 0

Mechanical Energy: 33 million

Template: Crown Prince of the Great Xia, Imperial Guard, Orphans of the Fallen Kingdom, Expeditionary Army Commander, Child of the Soul (Incomplete)

Summon Duration: 30 minutes

Seeing over a dozen ’Master Techniques’, Gao Gong clicked his tongue in admiration.

And when seeing the five templates, even someone like him couldn’t help but feel a bit envious. Any of these templates look much more legitimate than ’Man of the King’.

Am I destined to be unorthodox my whole life?

’With 33 million Mechanical Energy, among the NPCs I’ve seen, this should be the first, tsk tsk, a monster!’

If it weren’t for the ’Mother City Influence’s dimensional strike, in another script, the ’Orphans of the Fallen Kingdom’ would’ve been replaced with the ’Savior’.

Patting Xiao Yu’s little head, is this what they call a fool’s luck, or did you get the protagonist template?

Your boss here, after working hard and selling his body countless times, only got back 4 templates.

Fortunately, this move only lasts 30 minutes, which barely let Gao Gong regain his balance.

"There’s something I need to consult your opinion on," Du Zhaodi opened her eyes.

Unlike Sister Rose who only cares about Gao Gong’s efforts in bed and always ignores someone’s contributions to the career, Director Du still respects him as an honorary boss.

"What is it?" Gao Gong asked curiously.

"A few days ago, a representative of the ’Eternal Life Conglomerate’ approached me. He made a request, which is for me to inherit Xie Egui’s position in the conglomerate and become the new ’Candidate for Immortality’."

Uh, Director Du, your protagonist’s luck is also quite intense.

The Eternal Life Conglomerate, according to Gao Gong’s understanding and combined with internal data from the Ghost in the Shell Mobile Division, can now be confirmed to be a subsidiary conglomerate of a Giant Corporation Civilization.

And this form of civilization, the Giant Corporation Civilization, is also quite special. Compared to ordinary civilizations that achieve expansion through technology lock, species modification, or military suppression, this civilization expands in only one way: by setting up companies, opening them throughout the universe.

As for the ’Candidate for Immortality,’ Gao Gong also knows, the prerequisite condition for the ’Longevity Species,’ the enhanced attributes are equivalent to a boss panel.

Similar ’Longevity Species’ appear with the highest probability in ancient civilizations and Giant Corporation Civilizations, so any inheritance of ’Candidate for Immortality’ is not surprising.

Gao Gong pondered for a moment and said, "Letting you take Xie Egui’s place, in other words, it doesn’t intend to hold us accountable for killing Xie Egui before. This way of handling affairs quite matches my impression of such a Super Corporation. So, what is the price?"

"It wants to invest in the Du Gao Group."

A familiar storyline, in the previous plot, they seemed to have invested in the Holy Brain Group, and now they have changed targets, but the pattern remains the same.

"The conditions are a bit high; it wouldn’t be for controlling shares, would it?"

Du Zhaodi shook her head, "Although it’s not controlling shares, it’s still a very large sum."

"You don’t want to agree but are hesitating, why?"

Du Zhaodi silently nodded.

"They proposed that if we agree to this condition, all corporate assets of the Eternal Financial Group on this planet can be freely managed by us. I calculated that if we control these assets, we can soon break through the standard of a Level 2 Civilization and reach a Level 3 Civilized Influence."

Gao Gong thought for a moment and showed a strange smile.

"Then sign it; first, sign a verbal agreement and a temporary asset transfer agreement, and three months later, invite their representative to sign formal documents."

Three months later, the Cyber Tide erupts, and the first wave of the Cyber Tide is called ’Memory Loss.’

By then, what the signed contract contains will not be up to you to decide.

...

On the other side, under the Radiance of the Golden Rule, a special ’surgery’ is taking place.

Eliza lies in a coffin made of gold, and opposite her is another golden coffin, in which lies Gao Yuanyuan.

Gox stands in the middle with a solemn face, black blood flows down from his wrists, forming two flowing blood lines that respectively enter the two coffins.

And in the sky above, the shadow of a ’Golden Cross’ looms faintly.

As ’No. 9 Mutation Fusion Body: Hydrimo,’ Gox’s ability is very special.

Mutation can be understood as a change in life form, or as a mutation at the microscopic level, or even as a mutation of artificial intelligence, turning from a normal running program into an electronic virus.

And in the evolution history of intelligent species, this kind of ’mutation’ has hardly ever stopped, starting from the Primordial Ocean, to the Great Oxidation Event, to the explosion of eukaryotes, invertebrates, ancient creatures, and amphibious life forms...

And during the period of technological evolution, this change only happens faster, not calculated in billions or tens of thousands of years, but in hundreds of years as a stage, from Primordial People, Modified Humans, Virtual Life, Artificial Intelligence, to Bionic Man, and this type of ’mutation’ is called ’Artificial Mutation.’

And ’Hydrimo’ holds the Authority in this area.

’Hydrimo’ is not a person’s name; on the Mechanical Split Star, it is a god’s name, the God of Fire Stealing, the God of Evil, Fallen Angel, Challenger, Life Messenger, in different cultural environments, it is given different meanings.

But among these legends, there is one legend that is widely recognized, which is after the initial life ’Luca’ was born, it was he who challenged Luca, pulling off one of her rib bones that fell to the human world, resulting in the birth of the earliest humans.

Gox indicates that she really likes this name.

The golden cross in the sky grows ever brighter, under the illumination of the Golden Rule, this ’super virus’ begins to tear at the surface of the punk girl’s body, and within a few breaths, it dyes her entire body red, yet her smile grows more insane.

Because the ability of ’Hydrimo’ successfully ’caught’ a corner of the Golden Rule and began to mutate it.

How interesting it is if the underlying network of this planet is polluted by a virus and becomes a carrier of monsters!

Under the control of the blood, the transfer begins.

A large number of spiders crawl out of Eliza’s coffin and into Gao Yuanyuan’s coffin.

And in the entire virtual level, all the ’Hyperlink Protocols’ begin to change letters, Eliza’s letter ’e’ is changed to Gao Yuanyuan’s starting letter ’g,’ as if endless silk threads entwine the two.

Only Gao Yuanyuan, this Tier 3 Information Life, and a girl on the ’Brainstorm Route,’ could bear ’search engine’-level information transmission, the only such case.

No wonder Eliza was so delighted to see Gao Yuanyuan.

And Gao Yuanyuan also feels that she is not merely crossing through doors; she herself has transformed into endless doors.

The boss template, ’Hyperlink Girl,’ with all three statuses activated, absorbs such massive data.

Template: Hyperlink Girl

Effect 1: Wireless Link, you can enter any program module, including but not limited to web pages, emails, corporate networks, human brains.

Effect 2: Infinite Link, within the range of your ’Consciousness’ capacity, the number of links you can make is limitless.

Effect 3: Life Link, Information Life, Carbon-Based Life, Energy Life, Mechanical Life, you can link to any life form.

Her Total Level also quickly increases, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73...

Almost a change per second.

A new boss template begins to slowly form.

This template is called ’Cyber Engine.’
