"Woof woof woof—"

"Woof woof—"

"Grass!

As the saying goes, a dog's mouth can't produce ivory; when a dog starts barking, it's usually not a good thing.

Meanwhile, in a data archive on Atomic Island, a dozen players were being attacked by a group of service robots. Among them was a bionic dog whose leg had been broken, with electronic sparks flying from the broken end.

Just a minute ago, the situation was completely different.

The 60-year technological gap is no joke. Modern androids are no different from real people except that they can't have children. Ancient robots, on the other hand, were really just human-shaped tin cans with stiff limbs, rusty metal bodies, and strange movements. They were truly one shot, one kill.

Just as the group of players were having a great time grinding monsters, suddenly, the situation changed. The service robot's skin seemed to be on fire, with streaks of purple electricity appearing at her joints. At the same time, a visible purple light began to appear at her heart.

Name: Amusement Park Robot (Berserk Mode)

Category: Service Robot (Power Up Mode)

Level: 45

Skills: Guiding Mode (Death Enhancement), Room Service (Sadism Enhancement), Voice Service (Abusiveness Enhancement), Massage Mode (Bone-Breaking Enhancement)

Note: Infused with unknown high-level energy, it has become a service-type monster. If you possess a monster-level physique, you will enjoy an extraordinary experience.

Unfortunately, players don't have monster-like physiques, so when a level 15 monster suddenly becomes level 45, and when the opponent can easily cut down a pillar with a single palm strike, they are in big trouble and are directly tortured to death by various "services," including "simps."

"Simp" is his game name. True to his name, at birth, as an employee of a bionic company, he successfully transformed himself into a dog. His weapon is a rare female combat bionic. He spent a long time grinding through corporate missions to finally get his wife.

At this moment, while other players were being killed one after another, "Wife" resolutely took action. With a nimble flick of her skin made of neuron-like material, a crisp whip cracked through the air. Her foot slammed hard into the elbow of a service robot, and a muffled thud echoed through the air. Under the purple arc of electricity, "Wife's" leather boots visibly melted.

"Holy crap, honey, run! After I die, remember to activate self-defense mode and add an electronic keypad lock. Don't let Old Wang next door crack it!"

"Simp!" the player shouted. Just like a player's life doesn't matter, but before dying, they must save their equipment. It doesn't matter if he dies, but this "wife" is something he spent a lot of money to grind for. It's a high-end, custom-made mature woman. If he loses it, he'll cry his eyes out!

"Shut up!" "Wife" issued a customized mature woman's voice, twisted her waist suddenly, put her hands on the ground, and kicked the berserk robot away with a triple kick. At the same time, she rolled over, scooped up "simp" with her back hand, and ran outside. Behind her, the sounds of weapons breaking and prosthetics shattering were continuous.

"My wife is so amazing!" the simp exclaimed, but in his heart he was thinking, "When did the 'battle mode' become so advanced, even with a built-in protection mode?"

Soon, all the players except the sycophant were completely destroyed. After the players disappeared, the purple eyes of the service robots dimmed and they returned to normal service mode.

The same scenario was unfolding throughout Atomic City. Monsters that were only a dozen levels high suddenly jumped to level thirty, reaching the second tier. Their speed, strength, and agility all increased tenfold. What was originally a crushing defeat suddenly became a crushing defeat, but only against the players.

However, not all players are unable to handle it. In fact, top players have already reached a level where they can fight against "second-tier monsters".

At this moment, in a building called "Big Collective 0", defensive robots fell to the ground one by one, while not far away, four figures were clashing at an astonishing speed.

The first thing you see is a pitch-black figure. This figure seems to attract light, and at first glance, it looks like a human black hole. This human black hole is elusive and disappears into the air from time to time. Once it appears, its attacks always hit the vital points and reach the speed of sound, with double damage, weak point attacks, and energy attacks. It is extremely ruthless.

These enhanced robots have improved in every way except for their health.

Finally, as the last tin man fell to the ground, the shadowy figure landed on the ground. The absorbed light began to be released, like a flashbang. In an instant, the entire hall was brightly lit. Fortunately, the opponent was just a robot. If it were an ordinary opponent, the blinding effect of the flashbang would have been much more troublesome.

"Is this the legendary 'carbon-based fusion,' a super skill that takes a biological approach?"

"The effect of 'carbon-based fusion' is different for each individual. In addition to greatly increasing my attributes, the biggest effect of my 'carbon-based fusion' is light manipulation, which is also related to my profession."

He calmly said, "I carry a knife but no umbrella in the rainy night." The weapon in his hand was one of the nine famous assassination swords forged by the top swordsmiths of the Assassination Alliance. The "One-Patterned Serpent Blade" had been sheathed at some point and looked like a lurking venomous snake, exactly like his temperament.

The effects of carbon-based fusion vary for each powerful individual on the carbon-based path. For Umbrella Bro, however, the fusion did not increase his power or transform him into a "Saiyan." Instead, all signs of life disappeared, and even ancient detection equipment could not detect him.

"So, according to you, only unmodified organisms have a chance to activate this ultimate skill, but not cyborgs?"

"Not absolutely, but one thing is certain: the higher the degree of mechanical modification, the lower the probability of unlocking 'Carbon-based Fusion'. Therefore, there should be very few players on the Machine Rift Star map who can unlock this skill."

"Because pure carbon-based species are extremely rare on this planet."

Umbrella Bro walked through the corridor, pushed open a door, and saw a woman in white typing on a keyboard. Her hair danced without wind, strands of hair occasionally getting stuck in various interfaces. At the same time, holographic projections of her kept flashing, sometimes smiling seductively, sometimes indifferently, sometimes making funny faces. If you didn't look closely, these projections were almost indistinguishable from real people.

"What advanced holographic technology!" "Umbrella Bro" was somewhat moved.

"Impressive, right? I learned it from an NPC," Sister Ji pressed the last button, and with a 'click,' all the building's defenses were hacked.

The two had a simple plan: "Umbrella Bro" would lure the robot in, and then Sister Ji would hack in to completely shut down the outer defenses.

Although it's described simply, it's only because the partners involved are all at level 30 that it can be described so lightly.

As Sister Ji stood up, countless nerve endings crawled out from under her skirt, rubbing against the other person's tight-fitting clothes like a female pervert.

"Not bad, Dark Serpent. I've heard of you even on the other side of Freedom. You're the only player among the new batch of top assassins in the Assassination Alliance. Impressive!"

Umbrella Bro used the hilt of his knife to brush away the other man's nerves, and said irritably, "Get to work, don't mess around."

Sister Ji shrugged, and the two walked deeper into the building, chatting as they went.

"The monsters suddenly leveled up by 30. We can still hold them off, but what about the other players?"

"In a normal mission, this would be very unusual, but this is a 'hell-level mission,' so it's normal," Umbrella Brother paused, then said calmly, "Moreover, this should only be the beginning."

Sister Ji narrowed her eyes and asked, "What did you sense?"

"It's hard to say, but I have a strange feeling that this mission might be very unfriendly to the cyborgs," Umbrella Bro said with a frown. At his waist, the scarlet snake eyes on the 'snake head' of the smart knife's handle suddenly lit up.

"The virus has begun to spread further and will soon produce the first wave of mutations." On the spaceship, in countless holographic projections, the fingers of the dead players suddenly twitched, and then their damaged prosthetic bodies began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The first mutation resulted in the gain of "Vitality"?

The senior mechanical engineer shook his head. Relying on the senses of his other body, he easily determined. "No, it's more like 'parasitic ability' than vitality."

"Parasitism?" Miao Miaomiao asked in confusion, but she quickly understood. The skin on those mechanically modified corpses was visibly shriveled and dried out. Soon, one by one, the modified skeletons stood up, their empty eyes flashing with a fierce light.

This is the biochemical mode.
