"Warning, warning! Demon One's system has been invaded by external information!"
"Target identified as human Lin Ye. Authorization approved. Warning lifted."
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Demon One stopped sounding the alarm, and the surrounding demons breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Lin Ye fabricated an identity for himself and implanted it into Demon One's system.
Afterward.
Lin Ye casually found a seat and began the first step of cracking Demon 1: conceptual analysis.
Seeing Lin Ye sit down, the surrounding demons wore doubtful expressions.
But since they truly could not defeat Lin Ye, they all believed that Demon Queen Morgana had granted him authorization.
"Stop staring, stop staring. What's so interesting about the Queen's pretty boy?"
"Exactly. I can grab a whole bunch of pretty boys like him on Earth. Didn't what's-her-name keep a whole pile of them at home?"
"I'm telling you, I really don't know what's so good about this human. Other than being a little stronger in battle, what does he have that's better than us?"
"..."
The demons in the command room operated the instruments to maintain Demon One's operation while making snide remarks to distract Lin Ye.
But Lin Ye was immersed in cracking Demon One and had no time to deal with them.
Time passed second by second.
Lin Ye's Decomposition Value rose at a terrifying rate, while system notifications rang endlessly in his ears.
Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have cracked Demon 1's propulsion system! Obtained 100 Decomposition Value! Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have cracked Demon 1's Communication System! Obtained 100 Decomposition Value! Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have cracked Demon 1's Wormhole Jump technology, mastered a large amount of Wormhole Technology, and obtained 500 Decomposition Value!
Hearing about Wormhole Technology, Lin Ye slowly opened his eyes.
Hmm.
This Wormhole Technology was pretty good. It could pair well with Star Fate.
Although Star Fate had been scrapped by the impact of the Concept Rewrite Engine before.
He could still build another one.
Besides, with so much Decomposition Value now.
It was time for the system to upgrade.
As Lin Ye pondered, a series of clicking sounds echoed by his ear, as though the system were loading something.
About ten minutes later, a crisp sound rang out in Lin Ye's mind.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host! Your Decomposition Value has exceeded ten thousand. You meet the requirements for a system upgrade!" "The system has upgraded to LV.2. You have received the following rewards: System Mall unlocked; Concept Rewrite Engine upgraded to intermediate level." "Please check your rewards!"
After digesting the information in his mind, Lin Ye froze for two seconds.
He had not expected the system upgrade to unlock a new function—the System Mall.
Lin Ye immediately entered the System Mall, and a dazzling array of goods appeared before him.
Item: Dark Silver material. Description: The sharpest known weapon-forging material in the universe. It can be fashioned into various highly penetrating weapons using different technologies. Price: 1,000 Decomposition Value per ton. Item: Divine Gene. Description: Genetic molecules originating from the Queen of Angels among the angel race. They enable rapid resurrection and grant absolute authority over angels. Price: 5,000 Decomposition Value. Item: Stellar Destroyer Description: An advanced destroyer equipped with post-nuclear civilization technology. It can unleash highly penetrating nuclear energy attacks and use stars as its power source. Price: Decomposition Value per unit.
Most of the goods were dimmed out, meaning Lin Ye could not afford them for the time being.
These goods could actually be purchased with Decomposition Value?
Lin Ye stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.
If it was Decomposition Value, he might as well just rob people directly.
Still, some materials could be exchanged for Decomposition Value, such as Dark Silver, a material mostly controlled by angel civilization.
Lin Ye had coveted Holy Kaisha's Silver Wings for a long time as well.
The System Mall began examining the Concept Rewrite Engine.
"Second-generation Concept Rewrite Engine: Concept Replication. Equipped with an ultimate chip, its operating speed has increased one hundredfold." "Function: Concept Replication. It can enhance the effectiveness of analyzed technological products by one hundred times." "Warning: This effect enhances all aspects. Its duration depends on the degree of rewriting. The deeper the rewriting, the shorter the duration, and the laws of matter may collapse."
The Concept Rewrite Engine's self-description rang in his ears.
After hearing it, a glimmer flashed through Lin Ye's eyes.
A trace of delight flickered across his handsome face.
He had not expected the Concept Rewrite Engine not only to gain a hundredfold increase in operating speed.
It had also gained the function of Concept Replication.
It could enhance the effectiveness of analyzed technological products by one hundred times.
Didn't that mean Star Fate's flight speed, impact force, and destructive power could all be enhanced a hundredfold?
That was far better than its previous ability, which could only strengthen one aspect.
Although the final outcome might still be the collapse of the laws of matter.
After all, the known universe still had Laws of Physics. The Concept Rewrite Engine had yet to reach the level of rewriting the Laws of Physics.
Overall, he had gained several more means of attack.
Previously, he relied on his body to withstand attacks and used Thunder Gene and Ice Gene to attack.
But his methods of attack were rather limited and not powerful enough.
He might be able to reach king-level combat strength, but he lacked the foundation possessed by those at that level.
After all, both Kaisha and Morgana had their own armories.
Current battles mainly relied on weapons.
With the hundredfold enhancement from analyzed technology, things would be much better.
Lin Ye pondered silently and nodded.
He stood up and looked at the demons in the command room.
A day and a night had already passed while cracking these technologies. The demons had changed shifts, and it was time for Lin Ye to leave as well.
Because Demon One no longer had much value left to crack.
Afterward, Lin Ye left the command room.
Halfway there, he encountered Morgana, who had come after hearing the news.
"After playing around for so long, did you manage to research any results?" Morgana swayed her hips as she approached, a teasing glint in her eyes.
Xue Yi, Ato, and the other demons followed beside her.
"There were some results, but I'm a little disappointed."
Lin Ye shook his head. As he looked at Morgana, something suddenly occurred to him, and his eyes flickered slightly.
Maybe I could examine Morgana's armory.
"Disappointed? Good. If you could crack everything, why don't you just fly into the sky?"
Morgana fearlessly met Lin Ye's gaze.
This kid had stayed in the command room for a whole day. Someone who did not know better might have thought he was cracking Demon One.
But that was impossible. Demon One contained countless ages of her work and effort.
How could it be so easily cracked?
Lin Ye slowly walked to Morgana's side and flicked her Demon Wings.
"Do not disrespect the Queen!" Ato remained as cold as ever.
Lin Ye smiled and explained, "My disappointment isn't that I can't crack it. It's that Sacred Caesar's armory is incredibly well-stocked, while the Demon Queen's armory is pitifully sparse, and it's all third-rate junk."
Who the fuck are you calling third-rate?
Morgana nearly blurted it out instinctively, but fortunately, she held herself back.
Before you continue
