[Warning, warning! Your body's functions are disordered; your mechanical rejection rate will increase by 10 points per second.]
[Warning, warning! Your bodily functions are disordered; your biological rejection rate will increase by 14 points per second.]
[Warning, warning! Once the biological/mechanical rejection reaches its limit, it will cause irreversible damage to the human body.]
[Warning: Your organism has mutated]
[Warning: Your mechanical body has mutated]
Today's senior engineers are just like a fallen angel leader, the embodiment of pride in the Seven Deadly Sins. Three tails pierce into their backs and the tips pierce out of their chests, as if three bone spurs have grown out of their chests, with blood slowly flowing out from the base of the bone spurs.
On the body surface, the exposed muscles proliferate rapidly, resembling both a mutated living person and a resurrected B-grade bird or beast from the human body.
As the senior engineer flapped his three pairs of black wings, a large amount of silvery-white liquid flowed down from his wings. This was the metallic liquid secreted by the 'Titanium Alloy Bone Hyperplasia'.
At the same time, terrifying heat began to build on the engineer's skin, and a large amount of water vapor evaporated, causing his body surface to visibly 'rot'.
"A swift and decisive victory!"
Amidst the blinding white light, the senior engineer suddenly appeared before the demon mountain, looking down at him. The next moment, the demon spear made of his spine cleaved down on him.
"Are you kidding me?!"
The Demon Mountain roared, and 90 energy nozzles on his body lit up. The gears on his arms spun wildly, and a violent stream of ions formed a 'sabertooth tiger' on his body.
His two arms transformed into the two giant teeth of a saber-toothed tiger.
"Sitting Tiger!!!"
The next moment, the demonic spear struck the 'Tiger Tooth', and the violent aftershocks created vortexes of all sizes in the air.
During the stalemate, gears exploded one after another, while the light on the magic spear grew brighter and brighter.
Finally, as the six 'fallen angel wings' flapped once more, the white radiation field surged into Gao Gong's body like the sky collapsing, and the terrifying power rose once again.
Finally, Demon Mountain could no longer hold on. His arms loosened, and he exploded like a cannonball hit the ground, sending up layers of smoke.
[You dealt 1200 armor damage to General Tiger Mountain and caused 9% mechanical damage.]
[You dealt 2300 damage to the Mountain, inflicting a high-temperature radiation effect.]
The high-ranking engineer raised his magic gun once again, and white radiant energy condensed at a visible speed. The next moment, terrifying heavenly fire descended from the sky. This time, the area attack was not only aimed at Demon Mountain, but also at other security team soldiers.
"Kill them all, leave no one alive!!"
The next moment, all the mechanical beasts went berserk, rushing forward to tear and devour.
Sporadic gunshots rang out, then were drowned out by the terrifying behemoth.
"Do it!!"
Daisy transformed into her spider form, with a human head and a spider body, frantically spitting out spider silk from her hands and feet to pull soldiers out of the makeshift trenches and then inject them with venom.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Keiko Matsushima also activated the combat algorithm "Rampaging Cherry Blossom Dance". Several connecting lines were inserted into the hilt of the smart katana on the palm-shaped wielding device. Her petite figure charged forward wildly, and wherever she passed, the light of the blade flashed, cutting through gun barrels and slicing through human bodies.
The katana is so sharp that the body is often separated from the victim's body only a second after the killing.
The outermost mechanical hunters looked at each other, and the uniformed hunter was the first to respond. He flicked his hands, and two military knives emerged from his palms, their blades crimson with bloodstains that could not be washed off.
Then he charged menacingly toward a position.
Sabre Tamir, a typical combative mechanical hunter and a fanatical worshipper of violence.
The cowboy hunter swung his dreadlocks around his neck, and the usually temperamental plasma horse connected with him, and the two charged off together.
"Hang them!"
Cowboy Apoo, a frontline mechanical hunter at the "Horse Farm".
"What's there to hesitate about!"
A cyborg with modifications no less advanced than the Black God roared, his arm deforming to reveal a dark gun muzzle. As he charged forward, the paratrooper-style heavy machine gun spewed out terrifying tongues of fire.
The mechanical hunters from the horse farm, the amusement park, and the new steel city all turned their guns on the security forces soldiers.
There are many reasons, but fanaticism is certainly a factor.
"They're all crazy!"
The wriggler ground its teeth. Under the terrifying radiation of the Class A radiation field, it felt that its previous injuries had healed by 50-60% in an instant, and it looked much younger.
"Anyway, I'm just idling around."
He stomped his foot, and the next moment, a severed-armed Licker roared out. Under the enhancement of the advanced radiation field, a deformed arm slowly grew from the severed part of its body.
A soldier's head had just poked out of the trench when, in the next instant, a huge mouth fell from the sky and gnawed off half of his head.
The senior engineer hovered in mid-air. With a thought, countless black feathers fell, each feather transforming into a black fire arrow that shot towards the fleeing soldiers.
Transform for a moment, feel great for a moment, unleash powerful area-of-effect attacks at will.
"You dare!!"
A white line suddenly rose from the ground and appeared behind the senior engineer in an instant. The figure of the Demon Mountain reappeared, and this time, all his energy nozzles were concentrated in his palms. In addition, there was the black light of the Bio-Armor. The two combined to form a gray color, which covered the area as his palms moved.
The gray area covered a 100*100 field, directly severing the connection between the high-tech zone and the radiation field.
Domain skills?
The senior engineer didn't make a move, but thick red electric currents appeared out of thin air, covering a 3*3 meter area around him. Each flash of electricity could take away hundreds of points of the opponent's health.
In an instant, Demon Mountain's health plummeted.
"Bioelectric emission," an essential skill for advanced life forms, is known as "Super Saiyan mode" among players. It is also one of the few methods that directly cause true damage because it acts at the cellular level.
Demon Mountain was enveloped by streaks of crimson electricity, causing his movements to freeze involuntarily.
The senior engineer's voice rang directly in his mind.
"You seem to misunderstand something: you think severing my connection to the radiation field will cut off my bioenergy?"
"If we had done this earlier, we might have succeeded, but now—"
"I am radiation!"
The senior engineer spread his arms, and the next moment, strands of white light overflowed from his cells, merging together, and then, terrifying white light suddenly engulfed the surroundings.
It's like the sun shining down, cleansing the world.
[You dealt 4321 damage to the Mountain]
Even a max-level powerhouse wouldn't have as much health as a radiation beast of the same level. Even with the 'leader template,' he'd be lucky to have tens of thousands.
Especially after transforming, the high-level engineer deals either area-of-effect damage or true damage, rendering master-level fighting skills useless here.
"It's over."
Watching the Demon Mountain fall from the sky once again, Gao Gong held the Demon Spear upside down, as if it were an inverted pillar of strength. Before he even landed, Gao Gong's figure appeared in front of him as if by teleportation.
The drill-sized gun tip pierced the opponent's chest, penetrating it mid-air. Upon landing, it exploded like a bomb, creating a massive 20-meter-diameter "bowl" amidst the raging dust.
In a first-level mechanical civilization, even a powerful individual who takes the modification route and reaches the maximum level will not have more than 5,000 mechanical energy. This is not determined by talent, but by the upper limit of technological level.
Of course, this does not include weapon systems, energy systems, and exoskeleton systems; it only refers to the degree of human body modification.
If we include this 'mechanical energy', we'd have to add a zero to the end, which would be 500,000 mechanical energy.
If compared to a Class A radioactive beast, it's roughly half the size of the other party.
However, if body size is taken into account, it becomes clear that the direction of "human body mechanization modification" has reached its limit and there is nothing more that can be modified.
At the same density, a fully upgraded human body modification can even surpass a Class A radiation beast.
Beyond that, the only options are large-scale development and legion-based development, but those are things for second-level civilizations.
However, this will have two drawbacks.
Firstly, your actual health cannot be as high as that of monsters of the same level. If a monster has 100,000 health, you'd be lucky to have 10,000.
Secondly, your mechanical weapons cannot be used as freely as your hands and feet. The performance of the armor is limited, and you can only utilize that much at most; they cannot evolve autonomously.
Simply put, the upper limit is not easy to break.
However, carbon-based flow combined with mechanical flow can easily break through the upper limit.
For example, you are a bio-modified warrior who has fused with a high-level mechanical life form, such as a certain "Transformer". Your mechanical energy is not only tens of thousands, but can even exceed one million.
Or, like the senior engineer, one could temporarily 'merge' with the corpse of a Class B radiation beast to gain early access to the Class A radiation field.
Upon reaching the maximum level of 30, by using carbon-based fusion to integrate mechanical/carbon-based life forms that surpass the level of civilization, one can break through the level cap in one fell swoop.
This is information that the senior engineer collected in his previous life specifically to take revenge on a certain woman.
Before he could even use it much, he had already transmigrated.
[You dealt 4121 armor damage to General Tiger Mountain]
Even the 'Devil Mountain Tiger - Devouring Type V' couldn't withstand this pure physical attack under the nearly ten-ton demonic gun. Its upper and lower body were split in two, and a large number of pipelines and circuits were torn apart.
"Damn, finally done!"
Without hesitation, the senior engineer grabbed a ten-meter-long black wing with his backhand and pulled it out forcefully. At the base of the wing were numerous blood vessels and nerve lines. With the forceful pulling, the flesh bulged and burst open like a tumor, and the blood vessels and meridians were torn apart.
[You removed the Rainbow Wyvern's tail fin (energy absorption), bio-energy -50000, mechanical energy -60000, bio-rejection -100, mechanical-rejection -300]
The senior engineer used the same trick again, but the remaining two "fallen wings" seemed to have their own biological consciousness. The muscles at the base of the wings twitched and began to connect more tightly, as if they didn't want to leave once they came.
However, if it doesn't leave, the rejection reaction in Gao Gong's body will eventually kill him.
After the three wings were pulled out, countless black feathers fell down, and the engineer's body gradually shrank to about two meters tall, except that there were three fist-sized blood holes on his upper body.
A quick glance at the panel revealed that both biological and mechanical rejection rates had exceeded 1,000, causing him to grimace in disbelief.
It's important to know that ordinary bio-modified individuals, with a biological rejection rate of less than 200, would suffer a backlash from biological weapons, resulting in severe mutations.
In other words, senior engineers use biological modification to block mechanical rejection and mechanical modification to intercept biological mutations, thus creating a buffer zone five times larger than others.
Just as the senior engineer turned his head, revealing the back of his head, the dead Demon Mountain's eyes lit up, and his mechanical mouth suddenly opened. A ball of black fluid shot into the senior engineer's body, frantically implanting itself into his body. In just two seconds, the senior engineer's back was completely black.
And on the back of his head, just like a professor at a certain magic academy, grew a "no-nose monster".
"The Demon Mountain" moved its mouth, contorted its features, and made a strange sound.
"An exceptionally, exceptionally good body... is now mine!"
The senior engineer seemed to be humming something.
"Listen to me... Thank you... Because of you, the four seasons are warm."
[Your rainbow pterosaur cell has been removed, biological rejection -50]
[Your rainbow pterosaur cells have been removed; mechanical rejection -80]
[Your Ironback Wyvern cells have been removed, mechanical rejection -80]
[Your Ironback Wyvern cells have been removed, biological rejection -70]
[Your...]
Integration brings temporary pleasure, separation leads to utter ruin.
Compared to large items, the cells of higher organisms are actually the most difficult to handle.
But there are always kind-hearted people who are willing to help him selflessly.
"Does my body please you?"
The Demon Mountain let out a silent scream, its black matter, formed from its colony, frantically trying to crawl out.
However, the cells of the Rainbow Pterosaur and Ironback Flying Dragon seem to say, "I can't bully the host, and I can't bully you either."
A large number of advanced biological cells pounced on the scene like wild beasts that had smelled blood.
Under normal circumstances, it's fine, since they are attached to their homes.
But since you've already "invaded" this family, doesn't that mean you're not here to destroy it, but to join it?
What else is there to say? Let's start the "Male Body Feast" and get everyone involved!
Thanks to nature's bounty, after the last burst of the prostatic fluid, the engineer's mechanical and biological rejection levels dropped below 300 points.
The senior engineer's sacrifice of his male charm was well worth it, revealing his sexy back.
[Task complete, Experience +14000, Regional Reputation +2000, Mechanical Puzzle Fragment *1, One Lottery Draw Chance]
[You killed General Tiger, Demon Mountain. Security Forces reputation -2000. Current status: Hostile]
[Your skill has been recognized by the Mechanical Hunter profession, and you have earned the title of "Number One Mechanical Hunter," with regional reputation increased by 5000.]
[You surpass level 20, kill a high-level humanoid boss, gain +1 specialization point, randomly draw one mechanical blueprint from the enemy, and receive an extra draw chance.]
The senior engineer glanced around and noticed that, at some point, a group of colleagues had gathered around the large pit.
These people have such intense gazes, like the way a rich woman looks at you.
It's unclear who started by kneeling down on one knee, but one after another, until everyone in the circle was kneeling.
"You're acting all high and mighty, so eager to become my lackey?"
The senior engineer swayed slightly and looked at the system panel again.
[You have forcibly implanted a high-level biological limb, permanently reducing your Strength by 1, Agility by 1, and Perception by 2. Your human systems are now disordered, and the human body modification is temporarily sealed. Please resolve this as soon as possible.]
"Good heavens, showing off lowers your stats."
The senior engineer looked miserable.
