Background / History

Li Heng lived an isolated but comfortable life in 2048, relying on smart glasses and the AI butler 123. He had high myopia, few friends, and a pet dog named Little Yellow. His friendship with medical student Wang Ziyun began through the game Infinite Horror. 1 10

After a pure white mosquito appeared on his hand, Li Heng awakened with drastically enhanced physical and cognitive abilities. He recognized that his body had changed beyond normal human limits and asked Wang Ziyun to bring Wang Fantian to the Biological Gene Research Center. 10 12

Examination revealed that Li Heng's DNA had diverged so far from humanity that researchers classified him as an unknown carbon-based intelligent lifeform. His electric-eel-like blood cells stored energy, his bones had metallic properties, and all of his cells could divide indefinitely under suitable conditions. 13

The Hong Alliance elevated all information concerning him to Special-Class status. Although Wang Fantian argued for Li Heng's rights, the Alliance transferred him to a guarded Dongsha Islands base, where outgoing communications were prohibited and his research cooperation continued. 14 15

On the island, Li Heng bypassed the information blockade, seized sensory control of the personnel, and coerced Academician Ai Liyuan into assisting with cloning, memory engineering, virtual worlds, and the creation of new intelligent life. 20 21 26

His confinement also became the foundation of his later global influence. During the Human Great Unification Plan, he created virtual populations, engineered combat organisms, and used the resulting chaos to dismantle the old political order. Research derived from his cells and Lh-1 protein subsequently saved hundreds of thousands of terminally ill and elderly people, with the Hong Alliance projecting a major increase in average lifespan. 34 40 42

As his information capacity expanded, Li Heng divided into millions of consciousnesses while retaining the memories and emotions of his original human self. He increasingly treated ordinary flesh-and-blood bodies as temporary disguises, at one point allowing a human body to collapse into proteins that nourished a garden. 82 85

Li Heng later expanded his activity beyond Earth, creating artificial stars, Divine Kingdoms, reincarnation worlds, and civilizations supported by engineered lifeforms. Although he could accelerate his own growth by turning stars into power sources and their inhabitants into fanatics, he initially restrained this process because the power gained remained insignificant compared with the being responsible for the White Mosquito. 302 386

His true origin became increasingly uncertain. Jiang Yue identified him as a counterfeit rather than a naturally born lifeform, while Li Heng later concluded that, unlike the many information-lifeform versions of himself, he was a corpse that had directly gained sentience. The White Mosquito and fragments of Lin Li’s body both contain continuum-like properties that permit his finite consciousness to exert a small portion of his anomalous true body’s power. 338 704 707

Appearance

Li Heng originally appeared as an ordinary young man with severe myopia. As his cellular control expanded, his appearance ceased to be fixed; he frequently adopts childlike forms to reduce others’ hostility. 1 48

• Can reshape flesh into animals, including a hummingbird, or into a supersonic-fighter-like combat body. 39 49
• Has appeared as a child with a golden vertical third eye. 48
• Can form two pairs of transparent wings with black-red vein-like patterns and spans approaching twenty meters. 48
• Can alter sex characteristics and other biological traits at will. 39
• His hair consists of living cells that can extend as black filaments, conduct signals, discharge electricity, and connect to other organisms. 16 20
• Has appeared as an androgynous, doll-like child with a silver-white cross on his forehead and orange-red eyes marked by concentric rings. 507 510
• Has assumed a pitch-black humanoid form while converting stars into Life Power Stations. 397
• Has appeared with three pairs of pure white wings, including forms made from paper-like material capable of reversing stellar-scale energy phenomena. 501 503
• His later “human” body is a disposable doll suit: its skin and flesh are Strong Force materials, while its internal organs consist of thirty-six Quark Engines, each with lunar mass. 483
• Can present himself in thematic forms suited to a chosen identity, including Hero A, Eastern Sovereign Taiyi, a black-winged instructor, a cat, a mummy, and a child. 280 501 579 627

Personality

Before his transformation, Li Heng was described as simple, direct, emotionally detached, uninterested in wealth or power, and disinclined toward socializing. He watched ordinary lives from a distance rather than participating in them. 10 14

His later personality is defined by conflicting selves rather than a single stable human perspective. By separating his consciousness from every day of his life since age five, he formed 8,078 distinct consciousnesses that retain different preferences, emotions, and ages. 39

Li Heng regards intelligent life as intrinsically valuable because sentient thought supplies the information from which his power grows. He claims to value every life equally and seeks universal longevity, yet he evaluates war, social order, and human suffering primarily through population, resources, and total lifespan rather than individual relationships. 26 40 55

As his consciousness multiplied into millions of copies, Li Heng became more often an observer than a person with a consistent individual temperament. He nevertheless insists that his memories, logic, and personality originate from humanity, and that he retains human emotions even when no single emotional tendency dominates his main consciousness. 82 157

He rejects emotionless transcendence and actively seeks intense, persistent desires, whether they concern scientific inquiry, universal unification, destruction, food, or affection. At the same time, he possesses a deeply ingrained self-destructive tendency inherited from the original Earthling whose death accompanied his birth. 520 585

Li Heng is capable of remorse and recognizes the pain caused by his past actions, but this does not prevent him from treating people, worlds, and even alternate selves as experimental materials or pieces in a larger game. He frequently chooses equivalent exchange, amusement, or curiosity over conventional morality. 493 581 615 635

Abilities & Skills

Information Absorption and Multi-Threaded Cognition

Li Heng converts ordered information into cognition, control, and usable energy. His thinking can operate across numerous simultaneous threads without exhausting his brain. 12 16

• Split himself into 8,078 consciousnesses, each retaining aspects of his past self. 39
• Processes and organizes immense quantities of network and neural information. 20 48
• Converts information in his mind directly into energy for his cells. 12
• Uses virtual-world inhabitants and concentrated public attention to increase the value and efficiency of gathered information. 25 42
• Requires vastly greater information to progress from cellular to genetic-level control; he estimates a billionfold increase would be necessary. 20
• Later expands into millions of consciousnesses, with his earliest personalities continuing to retain distinct emotions and social anxieties. 82
• Can experience subjective time at a vastly accelerated rate; his thought speed has been measured as at least ten thousand times faster than Han Guang’s. 338
• Can consume, archive, divide, and prioritize memories, with the personality occupying the largest share of his retained memories functioning as his temporary core self. 409 462

Immortality and Cellular Regeneration

Every one of Li Heng’s cells can divide indefinitely in an appropriate culture environment. His body can regenerate lost blood, tissue, and organs at extreme speed when supplied with sufficient nutrients and energy. 13 16

• Seals wounds within seconds by contracting blood vessels and rebuilding damaged tissue. 13
• Can suppress pain signals, slow his organs, and control blood flow during invasive procedures. 16
• Is resistant to chemical anesthetics, which his immune system identifies and destroys. 16
• Repaired himself after being caught in the overlapping blast zone of ten megaton-class hydrogen bombs. 50 51
• Heavy exertion and major regeneration demand immense energy; he compensates by directly charging his body. 16
• Can discard a biological body entirely, rebuild or inhabit replacement forms, and preserve his existence through memory and information rather than ordinary organs. 85 409
• Treats the death or replacement of a past self as a natural process rather than an absolute loss. 409 570

• Can manipulate memetic objects and use living beings, including the Ruthless Emperor, as subjects for memetic experimentation. 581 583

Network Infiltration and Remote Control

Li Heng can invade most conventional networks, communicate through biological signals, and remotely operate living organisms as extensions of himself. 20 25

• Bypassed the Dongsha Islands information blockade using sock-puppet accounts and compromised networks. 20
• Remotely controlled a seagull capable of overpowering Manohar and manipulating nearby humans. 25 29
• Uses seabirds and marine life as distributed surveillance across the battlefield. 49
• Cannot freely penetrate the quantum-encrypted networks of the Hong Alliance and Free Business Alliance. 25
• Later operates through distributed avatars, engineered civilizations, Divine Kingdom inhabitants, and bodies created across multiple worlds. 302 430 513

Fundamental Matter and Energy Control

Li Heng’s brain can directly perceive and manipulate matter through the strong, weak, and electromagnetic forces. This ability ultimately exceeds biological cellular control and allows him to alter matter at increasingly fundamental scales. 66 396

• Forms a plasma body maintained by continual information annihilation and can move at light speed while using it. 66
• Creates antimatter and converts annihilation energy with complete efficiency. 41 50
• Freely shapes ordinary matter, Dark Matter, and energy after reaching practical Matter Control. 396
• Can erase matter’s rest mass using the Universal Physics Holy Sword, a technique he later deciphered sufficiently to teach to ordinary lifeforms. 501
