Nervous System Mutation

In the game Cyberworld, developing a faction is actually a very difficult task.

This is something that Gao Gong has deeply understood in both his previous life and this life.

Didn't anyone else think about forming a team to boost their scores? Huang Wen did think about it, and then he became a vegetable.

First, you need to be able to command respect and control the situation, which is especially important in the mechanical hunter profession.

Second, you need to have money.

Recruiting a cable tribe requires solving the basic needs of over two hundred people, while building a combat team requires addressing their weapon replacements, prosthetic replacements, and ammunition supply.

Third, you need someone

Without Daisy and her veteran teammates training day and night, without Huang Wen's behind-the-scenes manipulation, and without various monster-attracting artifacts, no matter how many people there are, they are just a disorganized mess.

Third, you need to be knowledgeable in the industry.

If it weren't for the profession of prosthetic doctor, who would be willing to entrust their body modification to you?

Most importantly, you have to give people hope, and that's actually the hardest part.

Heroes are made by the times. Without the right circumstances, the senior engineer would have had to endure humiliation and beg for food from two rich women.

Although he still hasn't gotten up.

But to outsiders, it was incredible that the senior engineer had created so many miracles in just two months.

"I'm fairly satisfied with the current situation," the Mountain said, nodding at the end.

You're satisfied with how yellow the battlefield is now? How red must your old mech wars have been?

Unaware of the senior engineer's inner thoughts, Demon Mountain continued, "But I hope everyone will not be complacent. A major reason why we have been able to maintain our foothold amidst the beast tide is because our opponents are very cunning."

"Cunning?" one of the symbiotic team members spoke up. The electronic voice was neither male nor female, but one could vaguely detect dissatisfaction.

This person seems to be number one; good students can sometimes be a bit stubborn.

The Mountain was very patient with this person, even more so than with the Senior Engineer.

"The reason is simple. On the battlefield right now, besides the large mechanical beasts that are blocked by giant robots, have you seen any other Class B beasts?"

"You should know that 'Fission Duke' and 'Crimson Queen' are both originally radioactive beasts, and they should have the most radioactive beasts under their command."

"Eliminating dissidents?"

A major couldn't help but chuckle; the leader of this symbiotic squad seemed a bit airheaded.

"Radiant beasts don't exclude dissidents; their beast king authority is enough to control everything," the Mountain explained expressionlessly. "What I mean is, their true main force hasn't been mobilized yet."

"Are they planning to wait until the beast tide level rises before wiping us out in one fell swoop?"

"That's right," a colonel in the command headquarters said. "Some people may wonder why we don't strike first. After all, in terms of firepower alone, we have intercontinental ballistic missiles, space-based weapons, energy bombs, and all sorts of long-range weapons, which can achieve unlimited bombing."

"Under this scale of bombing, even a Class A radioactive beast would be unable to withstand it."

"We have tried," said one of the Oasis chiefs of staff. Without the mechanical general, they were the highest military commanders of the Oasis.

"The Class A radioactive beasts were killed on the spot, but the beast tide did not stop; instead, it became even more ferocious."

"The most dangerous beast tide is not the one with the most radiated beasts, but the 'beastless tide'."

"The reason is that after the Class A radiation beast died, its power did not dissipate, but was completely integrated into the beast tide, turning the beast tide into a completely mutated energy tide."

"Therefore, during each beast tide, we release advanced radiated beasts to sever their connection with the tide, and then kill them."

At this point, the Oasis Chief of Staff glanced at the senior engineer.

"This time, we planned to do the same thing, but clearly, the other side didn't fall for it."

"Are we just going to wait here like this? Wait until the beast tide becomes unbearable for most people and we just give up?" the containment team leader continued stubbornly.

The senior engineer could tell that the guy was indeed a bit stunned; he was playing the straight man.

"This is the second phase of the mission. In fact, not all B-grade radiated beasts are absent from the battlefield. Without the guidance of high-level beasts, the beast tide will only flow downstream, not upstream."

"It's just that all the Class B radioactive beasts are up there."

Demon Mountain pointed to the sky, and five giant mechanical birds appeared in the virtual command room.

Although these five mechanical birds are of different species, they all have the same enormous size, each looking like a bomber.

"Since the enemy is unwilling to commit their main force, our goal is to cripple them!"

"The specific hunting plan is as follows..."

As the Cyber Hacker cut off the connection, the engineer's vision gradually returned to normal.

"Sigh, without Electronic Barrier, my prosthetic eye is just like my underwear, any rich woman can wear it."

The senior engineer found this extremely frustrating.

The senior engineer had no objection to the "bird-walking plan" itself. War is like playing chess; if you don't understand the player's thinking, don't interfere.

The only problem is that he has to participate in this "bird-walking battle".

The reason is simple: the security team's "Beast Tide Energy Cut-off Device" is all heavy equipment, while his is the only one that is lightweight.

However, the senior engineer also raised a request.

That was Du Zhaodi's "Preparatory Mechanical Committee Member," but the word "preparatory" should be removed.

The other party agreed.

The senior engineer approached Professor Han, who seemed to know that the senior engineer would be coming.

They led him directly to a room.

There was nothing else in the room except a huge nutrient pool.

It's the same model as the one from the original Cable Tribe.

In the pool, a miniature "brain in a vat" was slowly swimming, with mental nodes constantly lighting up on its body like twinkling stars.

This was a special prosthetic surgery.

What's special is that this surgery doesn't involve implanting the "sub-body" into the senior engineer's body, but rather implanting the senior engineer into the "sub-body".

That's what Professor Han did back then.

Of course, the plan failed due to someone's sabotage.

"It's been optimized to the optimal state."

"The electric eels you brought will ensure that all electronic instruments will still work normally during the implantation process, even if there is interference from radiation fields."

The senior engineer nodded, slowly took off his clothes, and then soaked in the pool.

Of all the people, Professor Han was the only one who knew his plan. "Subsidiary implantation" was just the beginning. If everything went smoothly, biological rejection would no longer be a problem.

At that time, the old-school mechanical hunters will make a comeback.

The profession of Mechanical Hunter will then split into two: one is the current mechanical modification school, which will become larger, heavier, and stronger under the modification of the 'Mechanical Hunter Exclusive Module'.

The other type is the classic-style creature hunter, who will no longer be a fleeting phenomenon but will become a sustainable, foundational profession.

The engineer believed that the pie he painted was enough to destroy 1% of the professor's desire for revenge.

There's a phrase that goes something like this—"Spicy dance Anders Pisces"

As the engineer's entire body was immersed in the nutrient solution, he immediately felt his respiratory system gradually fail.

Or rather, some kind of liquid has been injected into his body.

A warm, cozy feeling spread throughout my body, as if I had returned to the womb.

My consciousness gradually sank.

Sink

Sink

On the sea of memory, thoughts rise and fall with the waves, yet cannot grasp a single drop of seawater.

He needs a hand!

Beneath the sea surface, a colossal tentacle emerged from the water and swallowed the senior engineer whole.

In Professor Han's eyes, red threads were emerging from the engineer's naked body, growing more and more as if they were taking root and sprouting.

These threads, even finer than monomolecular threads, 'stained' the nutrient solution red.

These are called nerve bundles.

The brain contains cranial nerves

The eye contains the optic nerve.

The neck has cervical plexus nerves

Muscles contain musculocutaneous nerves

The vertebrae contain spinal nerves.

For a moment, the senior engineer seemed to transform into a flagellate in the cellular fluid, its flagella slowly swaying as if searching for a new cell to parasitize.

Professor Han remained calm; he looked far more terrifying when he swallowed the brain in the vat.

It's possible that the senior engineer only devoured one sub-entity.

It could also be because the senior engineer's physical strength far exceeds that of Professor Han.

Or perhaps the senior engineer has the potential to become a "brain toilet".

Or it may simply be a matter of practice makes perfect.

In short, the surgery went smoothly.

[Sub-body integration successful, your perception +5]

[Your neural system modification rate (biomodification) +7%]

[Your endocrine system modification rate (biomodification) +1%]

[Your circulatory system modification rate (biomodification) +2%]

[Your respiratory system modification rate (biomodification) +1%]

[Your digestive system modification rate (biomodification) +1%]

[Your urinary system modification rate (biomodification) +1%]

[Your reproductive system modification rate (biomodification) +1%]

Just like the original body was implanted with a 'titanium alloy endoskeleton', when the modification rate of any one human body system increases significantly, it will inevitably lead to an increase in the modification rate of other human body systems.

This is called collaborative transformation.

Unlike mechanical modification, which enhances known abilities, biological modification enhances unknown abilities, or rather, mutation abilities.

A massive energy was brewing on the surface of the high-powered body, and tiny bioelectric currents pierced out from countless nerve bundles, gradually intertwining into a whole.

[Your neurons have mutated]

[Your bioenergy +80]

[Your nervous system has mutated, granting you the ability to retrieve memories.]

[Your nervous system has mutated, granting you the ability to transmit information.]

[Your nervous system has mutated, gaining the ability to activate nerve bundles.]

"Professor."

"Kindness?"

Professor Han looked up, only to find that the senior engineer's mouth remained tightly shut.

"Open the door and tell Keiko Matsushima to take Daisy to the operating room. I'll be right there."

Professor Han was taken aback.

"You've acquired this ability too?"

He could communicate remotely before.

Professor Han opened the door and, sure enough, saw Keiko Matsushima, covered in blood, rushing over with a stretcher and a look of anxiety on her face.

"Daisy, Daisy is badly injured, she's dying!"

"To the operating room, Consultant Gao will be there shortly."

Keiko Matsushima paused for a moment, then quickly thanked her and ran off in another direction.

On the other side, the nerve bundles all over the senior engineer's body also began to gradually contract.

As the last nerve bundle was retracted into the body, a "ding" sound rang out.
