The senior engineer took it with some surprise and activated his detection skill.

Name: Meat-like Aggregate (Fern)

Race: Mechanized species

Status: Dead

Level: 40

Personal attributes:???

Status: Switch mode

Compared to before, it has evolved from a 'mutated life form' into a 'meat-mechanical life form'.

And there's an additional "death state".

This means that the mechanized knight named "Fern" is truly dead.

"During the avalanche, I discovered that it hadn't been destroyed, so I collected it. Perhaps you need it."

Ye Da Luoli added.

After all, her teddy bear was lost in the avalanche. The fact that this thing wasn't destroyed means that it must have a close connection with the avalanche.

"This is a bit unexpected, President Ye. I still prefer your previous rebellious self."

The senior engineer made a joke.

Ye Da Luoli's eyes widened immediately, and she glared angrily at the other party.

Xiao Yu, whose mind has never been very sharp, added insult to injury.

"I also like these little leaves."

"What, are you saying you want to give up on competing for number 13?"

Ye Da Luoli opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.

It seems she still wanted to, but she knew that she couldn't contain Number 13 on her own, so she chose to back down and give in.

"If you let me invest in the Saint Brain Group, then I can consider it."

Black Rose suddenly spoke up from the side.

"You!!"

Ye Da Luoli glared angrily at the other party.

Why does this scene look so familiar?

After a moment of thought, the senior engineer, aided by his kidney-damaged brain, recalled that when Director Du helped the Holy Brain Group resist the mercenary army of the Eternal Life Consortium, his request was to invest in the company.

There is indeed an indescribable tacit understanding among wealthy women.

Compared to Sister Rose, Director Du seemed a bit too honest.

"Alright, let's talk about this later," the senior engineer said, acting as a peacemaker, then turned to Ye the little girl with a meaningful look.

"Perhaps you think that containing the last Collapse Entity will greatly enhance your abilities, but everything comes at a price. The cost of controlling the fragments of a cosmic relic may exceed your expectations."

Ye Da Luoli's expression changed. She wanted to hear what the other party had to say, but unfortunately, the senior engineer didn't intend to say anything more. He gently stroked the tree trunk, sensing its structural components.

"The culmination of meat processing technology, quite interesting, I have a feeling—"

It feels like a low-end version of the fusion approach.

Compared to a proper integration approach, it is naturally inferior.

However, it has a very special advantage: it can be mass-produced.

The Mech Knight, as a faction unit, is technically superior to the Hunter.

The senior engineer was very interested in it.

With a thought, a portion of the body's rejection power was injected into it, and the next moment, something strange happened.

The dead, strange tree suddenly began to sprout, its fleshy branches trembling rapidly as it grew leaves with neural networks.

On the surface of the tree trunk, large amounts of flesh and blood were scraped off as if by a bone-scraping steel knife, eventually revealing the internal mechanical devices.

Name: Anti-Life Signal Converter

Level: Tier 2

Status: Damaged

Note: A very special device that can sense virtual signals and convert them into a special anti-life signal.

"Anti-life signal".

This was the first time the senior engineer had ever heard of such a claim.

But according to his memory from his previous life, anything with the word "reverse" in its name is quite dangerous.

Antimatter Legion, Galactic Antitide, Anti-Dimensional Life, Anti-Cosmic Constant.

Most of these things are nicknamed "natural disasters".

Considering the terrifying power of an avalanche, there is no doubt that this is a similar phenomenon.

Could the technology of "meat machinery" really be related to the "fusion route"?

Otherwise, how could they have come up with such a thing?

What interests the senior engineer even more is whether there are any "technological products" within the Knights Order that can reduce rejection.

"How did you do that? This thing is even a mechanical device?"

Ye Da Luoli rolled her eyes and said:

"Perhaps we can take it back to the technology center of the Saint Brain Group and conduct reverse research."

"The network technology of the electronic grid is much more powerful, so there's no need for President Ye to worry about it," Black Rose smiled slightly, blocking the other party's words.

Hmph, it's that woman again!

So what if you have big breasts? I'll punch you in the gut!

"No need for that," the senior engineer shook his head.

He used the power of rejection to separate the "flesh" and "machinery" of "Flesh-Machine Technology".

Combining the two is naturally quite complex, but separating them makes them much easier to manage.

After all, as a "rebel force," the Knights' technology is inferior to that of the Mother City and the Super Corporation.

They didn't even have combination locks on their 'flesh cells'.

The senior engineer squeezed out a mouth from his palm and began to chew the separated flesh and blood.

On the version 0 biological computer, the other party's biotechnology was also rapidly deciphered.

On the system panel, a series of notifications sounded—

You have obtained the Level 6 Biological Blueprint [Cell Activator]

You have obtained the Level 7 Biological Blueprint [Biological Integration Device]

[You have obtained the Level 7 Biological Blueprint [Reproductive Separation Operating Table]]

These drawings are not of a high level.

However, some bug-level technologies originate from these basic technologies.

However, one needs considerable luck to select the most suitable and powerful technological path from the complex array of options.

Luck is also a manifestation of the strength of a civilization.

Now, the senior engineer realizes that it is no coincidence that "war" was able to develop meat-based technology that is very close to the "fusion route".

He also vaguely guessed the purpose of that 'cosmic relic'.

Ye Da Luoli watched helplessly as a mouth grew from the senior engineer's palm and then devoured the entire 'tree trunk'.

This scene didn't startle her, but it made her wonder if this person was also a "mutant"? Otherwise, how could they have so many strange abilities?

The question is, which biotech giant could possibly have produced such a freak?

"Boss, is it delicious?"

The enormous "Mechanical King" crouched down and looked down at the three tiny figures at its feet.

"It's alright, but it's a bit sweet."

The senior engineer glanced at the Endless Black Armor and said, "Watch carefully and learn well. Sooner or later you'll have to fight the person who controls this technology."

Xiao Yu nodded seriously.

As the process of consuming the food was completed, images began to appear in the 'biological computer' within the body.

These are pheromones that remained in the 'cells' and were pieced together by the senior engineer.

Then, the senior engineer learned what an "avalanche" really was.

"So that's how it is."

The "Avalanche" was not a creation of the War, but a product of both the War Host and the Lariel.

"Lariel" is number 13, the final Collapse Entity, the system controller of the human brain.

And there's even more explosive news.

The first Collapse Entity to be born and the last Collapse Entity to be born have a very close relationship.

The key to this relationship is that they can "merge into one" in a short period of time.

That's why the "avalanche" phenomenon came into being.

"How come I didn't know about being able to merge into one?"

Black Rose expressed doubt after learning the news, after all, she was "Number 11", which is considered a relatively late-born Collapse Entity.

"It's probably because android A and Prometheus don't want to tell you."

The senior engineer shrugged.

He is number 5, and Xiao Yu is number 7; they could never have this kind of experience.

As for why Black Rose didn't have it, we can only speculate that perhaps it was only by the three "progenitors of androids" working together that certain abilities could be activated.

"You've confirmed the location of 'Number 13'? Since 'Number 13' has become integrated into the war, does that mean we've failed this time?"

Both women were very unwilling to accept this.

"No," the senior engineer shook his head, "The state of 'War Host' is hard to describe right now, and 'Number 13' hasn't truly recovered either. There's still a chance, but we need to be quick."

He looked up at the clear blue sky, now devoid of the radiation layer.

"If we can completely contain it before the 'Corporate Wars' enter the third phase, there is still a chance. Once the 'Original Brain' is completely squeezed out of human society by the 'Electronic Brain,' it will mean that Number 13 will be separated from the placenta and fully born. Time is very important."

"Time is very important to us."

Du Zhaodi emphasized this point.

In the scene before her, a large number of drone mechs fought alongside the mutants of the Holy Brain Group, resisting various attacks from land, sea, and air.

Various new weapons have also appeared on the battlefield, including advanced prosthetic devices, transcontinental weapons, air-to-ground strikes, and even large-scale biological projectiles.

The dismantled drones also demonstrated the ferocity of the enemy.

But Du Zhaodi remained confident.

"As long as the enemy's firepower cannot keep up with our production speed, we can wear them down. The reason is simple: the enemy cannot deploy an unlimited number of troops here, and in corporate warfare, we are not the only opponent."

An executive from the Holy Brain Group sat in a chair, frowning as he watched footage of biological weapons being deployed.

"It seems some of our competitors have joined the game, huh."

Then, the executive said to Du Zhaodi with some admiration:

"I never imagined that you, Leader Du, would have such foresight, preparing so many unmanned mechs in advance. These mechs are comparable to some large weapons in terms of firepower, and their speed of movement surpasses that of some military vehicles. More importantly, they are not afraid of destruction, while our mutants are not so lucky."

To prevent its headquarters from being overrun, the Holy Brain Group also dispatched a large number of mutants to participate in the war, including some A-level and S-level mutants.

However, while these advanced biological weapons would be devastating elsewhere, they are not much better than low-level cannon fodder on a real battlefield.

After all, they weren't mutants; they were all G-series monsters.

After losing a large number of mutants, the Holy Brain Group faced a shortage of manpower.

"It's a pity. If synthetic humans had been developed, we wouldn't have been short of manpower," the executive lamented.
