Professor Han's practice of transforming himself into a brain in a vat to withstand the increasingly harsh environment, and then stuffing everyone else into it, is known in the martial arts world as "stubborn!"

Clearly, having absorbed a portion of Professor Han's personality, Little Woman Number Two is also a stubborn individual.

If it were the real Huang Yuanli, she would probably vote without hesitation.

Who would risk their life for a pack of wild beasts?

"I won't disturb your experiment any longer," Little Woman Number Two stood up and slowly walked into the sacred forest. The swaying shadows of the trees cast long shadows of her.

The senior engineer watched silently for a while, then shook his head.

Entering this "state" was not because he attacked the brain in the vat, but because he deliberately let the other party pull him in.

Within the brain inside the vat, there are actually only a few methods that can evade detection by the planet's mainframe.

The reason he did this was actually to conduct an experiment.

The next moment, the combination of flesh and machine and Tyrant mode was activated once again.

The terrifying aura of a tyrant swept across the entire scene once again.

With a thought, the senior engineer simultaneously entered "Orochi Mode" based on this premise.

It's essentially a carbon-based fusion plus a fully formed state.

The superposition of these four states put the senior engineer into an indescribable state.

If I had to describe it, it was extremely swollen, like a giant supporting the sky, each step it took was like a thunderclap, and every time it opened its mouth it spewed out rolling dark clouds.

"With all four states combined, the body is close to exploding; fighting is out of the question, but this state might be perfect for research."

The Purple String Space opened up as expected.

Opening the Purple String Space in "Orochi Mode" will turn it into a "box".

While unable to move, it possesses a very strong attraction to other Collapse Entity.

In this state, it's difficult to even study 'oneself'.

So this time, the senior engineer wanted to try to see if the superposition of the four states could break through the 'amber' barrier.

In a daze, the amber disappeared and turned into White Box, like a simple 'virtual space'.

The senior engineer struggled, using every last bit of strength he had, gritting his teeth and persevering, and finally took a step forward.

With one step, the surrounding environment changed once again, as if it had become a blue planet, and this planet slowly rotated around the rift as its central axis.

However, nothing happened.

The senior engineer felt sore all over, like an old farmer who had hoeed dozens of acres of land, and was exhausted.

"If only I had a little more stamina."

With just a simple thought, the surface of the blue planet melted in the next instant. The seemingly empty ocean was transformed into the oldest primordial soup, where inorganic matter was converted into organic matter, and macromolecules were broken down into small molecules.

The seemingly calm marine environment laid a solid foundation for the future explosion of life.

Then, the senior engineer felt all the radiation beast bloodlines in his body develop again from nothing, and a very comfortable feeling spread throughout his body.

He enjoyed the treatment of an entire biological explosion all by himself.

It felt like soaking in a volcanic hot spring ten thousand times, the feeling of being completely melted.

Three familiar notification sounds rang out.

"Wow!"

The senior engineers were dumbfounded.

My physical strength has been upgraded directly from [previous level] to [new level].

Is this cosmic relic also a wish-granting machine?

It's important to know that although stamina is known as the most useless attribute among all attributes, it is also the most difficult to improve in some ways.

Its operating rules are five main attributes * 5.

I only gained 10,000 after unsealing all my S-level bloodlines.

Just by taking one step, the cost increased by 30,000?

That's a fucking bug!

But I like it!

Without saying a word, the senior engineer quickly made his second wish.

"I hope to subdue all the Collapse Entity!"

However, no matter how the senior engineer tried, even if he was exhausted and working harder than before, despite his 40,000 strength, he still couldn't take a single step.

So, this "wish" isn't related to the stamina you expend, but rather to the "difficulty level" of your wish?

The senior engineer opened the "Personal System".

Advanced energy pool 'Purple String Space', -/

What the heck is this?

The energy pool can be negative?!

The senior engineer immediately realized that such a wish might harm the 'Collapse Entity' itself.

"I need the coordinates of all the Collapse Entity."

This was the senior engineer's last wish.

Then, the senior engineer took a difficult step.

The next moment, the White Box disappeared, replaced by the Purple String Space. In this space, at least half of the space prisms were shattered.

Purple String Space: 0/

"The limit has been reduced by half, does that mean I can only teleport within a hemisphere, not globally?"

The senior engineer frowned in thought.

But the changes continued; the shattered prism did not disappear, and the mirror dust reassembled under an unknown force.

During the process, a large number of spatial strings were drawn into it, and then the purple string space began to bulge outward, not in one direction, but in twelve directions.

Meanwhile, the originally large Purple String Space continued to sink inward, transforming from an area roughly the size of a football field into the size of a basketball court.

Once this process is complete, twelve 'windows' suddenly appear in the raised mirror.

The window flickered, and images began to appear.

"Real-time monitoring of Collapse Entity?"

Most of the windows lit up, and what I saw were Collapse Entity.

Xiao Yu stared wide-eyed as she tried to blow a bubble gum the size of a basketball, while Ye Da Luoli watched her boredly from the side.

Xiao Yu walked through a desert, followed by several figures whose faces were covered by hoods.

Ymir appeared in a virtual space, seemingly searching for something.

Prometheus followed android A, and the two appeared in a luxurious villa, where they were greeted by another advanced android.

Black Rose gazed at the distant asteroid belt; her location was on the moon!

What is Sister Rose doing there?

Gao Yuanyuan appeared in a corporate headquarters, looked around in confusion, and then her body quickly became virtualized and entered a person's mind.

Aragaki also appeared. The place where he was was mysterious, pitch black, and nothing could be seen except him.

Of the twelve "small windows," only three are not visible, but these three are not entirely the same.

The window corresponding to the 'deep web' is a wall made of codes, with numbers, symbols, and codes that are constantly changing.

The code wall, a planet-level firewall.

On the window corresponding to "war," there was a jumble of random characters.

This shows that the ocean of information is very deep.

The third small window did have a view, but it was just a ball of white light, within which one could vaguely see the shape of two fishhooks connected together.

"These three, rather than severing the connection, would be more accurate to say they interfered with it; the connection itself still exists."

The senior engineer analyzed the situation and then turned his attention to the desert.

In the desert, Xiao Yu and his group seemed to be performing some kind of ceremony. In the scene, the senior engineer even spotted the wise man from the Earth Network Group.

"What are these people doing? Are they trying to summon the Memory Mother ahead of schedule?"

The senior engineer switched to the short video feed, walked to the opposite side of Xiao Yu, tapped the screen, and with a "pop," Xiao Yu's basketball-sized bubble gum finally burst open, sticking all over the other person's face.

As expected, Xiao Yu let out a scream.

"My world record bubble!"

"Stop soaking, get ready to work."

"Who? The boss?"

A day later, the incredible surprise from the Island of the Watchers finally reached the ears of the employees of Department Six.

The Minister of Humanity Experimentation Department has fallen.

The fall of the machine prophet

The head of the Memory Supervision Department was severely injured, and his fate is unknown.

The head of the Ghost in the Shell Mobile Division has disappeared.

Brother, you guys were just going to a meeting! How did it turn into this?!

The Six Ministries are a system parallel to the Mother City. Now that four of the six ministers have left, even the Mother City has been alarmed.

Whether it's the Ghost in the Shell Mobile Division or the Memory Control Division, powerful data wills descend from the sky from time to time, either messengers of the planet's mainframe or its clones.

Ghost in the Shell Mobile Unit

Motoko Yagami rubbed her temples, feeling somewhat conflicted.

Who would have thought that their own minister, if he didn't act, would sacrifice three ministers?

To be precise, he only killed one; of the remaining two, one went insane and the other was severely injured.

"Ms. Shell, do you have any news about our minister?"

"No, he cut off all communication with me after leaving the data fog."

What does this tell us?

"There's a 4% chance that Minister Gao doesn't fully trust us. Another 4% chance that Minister Gao is seriously injured and urgently needs a place to recuperate, a place he doesn't want us to know about. The rest are all unlikely and will not be considered for now."

"A safe place," Motoko Yagami said expressionlessly, "Go and inform the Dugo Group and ask if our minister is with them."

"What's the point of you hiding at the door!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people rushed in, including several other combat unit commanders.

"Captain, really?" the collider asked, its eyes shining.

"What's real or fake?"

"Our minister killed that guy from the Human Experimentation Department."

"You mean the Minister of Personnel? Yes."

Motoko Yagami decides not to reveal the information about "Punk Killer" because the higher-ups of the Sixth Department have decided to form a joint team to investigate Punk Killer... and the one who destroyed three department heads.

Her words immediately caused an uproar.

"No way."

"Really?"

"Is the new minister that capable?"

At first, everyone was very skeptical of the new minister, mainly because he was quite "low-key". Who would have thought that he would be so quiet until he made a big splash?

"Killing another department head, this is the first time in our Ghost in the Shell Mobile Division, isn't it?" muttered the combat captain of Division 4, a robot even larger than a collider.

This battle maniac admires fierce people the most.

The new minister is indeed very capable.

After the commotion, everyone dispersed, and Motoko Yagami gently knocked. The next moment, the screen windows and doors all closed, and a brain-computer interface emerged from the wall and was inserted directly into the back of Motoko Yagami's head.

The next moment, through the headquarters' pipeline, Motoko Yagami's consciousness underwent a transcontinental teleportation. Soon, in a mechanical city, in a closed room, the door suddenly opened.

Motoko Yagami, or rather, a clone of Motoko Yagami, emerged.

In this mechanical city, a large-scale memory loss event has occurred.

Intuitively, she felt that this matter was related to the monster under the stars.

The fact that four out of the six ministers were lost is also inextricably linked to that monster.

She wants to investigate this thoroughly.
