Chapter 185
In the past, the [Resuscitation] ability meant that even if Wen Jing was seriously injured and lost limbs, as long as basic life activities still existed, they could be repaired.
Just like when she was surrounded and killed by the Prophet's Death Squad and only had her head left, and when her Clone the Lava Giant Turtle and only had a severed limb left, she was able to survive with timely help.
Now it's even more powerful. Wen Jing's injury is so severe that she only has one cell left, which is considered 'alive'. This means that as long as she has time, she can repair her body based on just one cell.
Of course, if her body is scattered, it will automatically choose the largest part as the 'main body' to recover, rather than a new Wen Jing growing on all limbs.
[Spatial Cutting] is a special ability possessed by many high-level Awakened, including Dean Bai. They do not have spatial combat skills, only spatial abilities, so not all high-level Awakened can cut space.
The last one, [Bullet Time], as the name suggests, is different from the previous [Extreme Speed] which accelerated the body. This ability also accelerates the mind, making Wen Jing perceive that time around him is slowing down.
"Can we seek revenge on the Prophet now?"
Wen Jing couldn't help but have this thought, but reason quickly made her shake her head.
Acquiring these traits only brings her strength to the level of a top-tier Awakened in the Federation, still a significant gap from the S-rank who can change the rules.
Cellular-Level Regeneration? The Prophet's attack on that Supernatural Disintegration space directly erased her at the molecular level... and even smaller.
Not to mention that these characteristics are also extraordinary powers. Under [Supernatural Disintegration], Wen Jing went from a fully Awakened back to an ordinary person. The only thing that still existed was the panel in his consciousness.
Recalling the scene at that time, and the [Secret Treasure Gate] that skipped the Ancient Wilderness and directly 'took' the Wilderness Weapon from inside, Wen Jing could clearly distinguish the difference between S-rank and Awakened below S-rank.
The power of 'rules' can only be discussed in terms of confrontation if they can be touched upon first.
Just like how she is now using her extraordinary power to intimidate technological civilizations, because the other party is completely unable to touch extraordinary power, Wen Jing on them is a dimensional reduction attack, and the other party cannot even lock onto her with their attack.
"I need to continue to gather my strength..."
The reconnaissance consciousness and the Spacetime Amber consciousness immersed themselves in the civilization information of the Forging Alliance, eagerly absorbing new knowledge.
Chapter 185
Hidden in the asteroid belt, Wen Jing snapped out of his focused study as the panel prompted him.
"I go to the Forging Alliance every ten days, and this is the third time now..."
In fact, the information she gathered the first time included the core and cutting-edge technology of the Forging Alliance; what she obtained later were mostly branches and supplements of other skill trees.
The knowledge that consumed the most of her learning time was basically in the first memory.
When there is too much information, even the consciousness that devours the Ancient Wilderness comes to learn along, while only the Strongest Clone is still focused on conquering the ruins of civilization.
Through the development of the Forging Alliance's technology tree, Wen Jing also gained a basic overview of the development history of this civilization.
In summary, the Forging Alliance is a race that is transitioning from flesh and blood to mechanical ascension.
They call themselves the Kelike Tribe, an arthropod race that originally had three pairs of limbs. However, the middle pair of abdominal feet degenerated during the development of civilization, and most Krik People had them removed during mechanical modifications.
This civilization originated from the ocean, its entire body covered in a thick shell capable of withstanding the pressure of the Deep Sea water, and its appearance resembles an enlarged combination of a lobster and a king crab.
That's right. Don't be fooled by the fact that the Forging Alliance's home planet has been transformed into a mechanical planet; it was originally an ocean planet.
The Krik People civilization initially developed from hydrothermal vents on the seabed. The metal deposits around the vents formed a natural mine and a natural smelter.
When they learned to process metal into armor and buildings, just as humans conquered the land with tools and weapons, they naturally became the masters of the seas.
Later, they developed nuclear energy technology and began extracting deuterium, tritium, and other important elements from seawater, drying up the entire ocean and directly entering the space age.
Modern Krik People are becoming increasingly mechanized as they move up in social class.
However, some core elements of the original form are still retained in the design of the mechanical body.
The lowest-ranking were the partially modified grassroots engineers, the individuals Wen Jing saw in the workshop during his reconnaissance. The elite were the fully mechanically modified commanders who retained only their brains. The leaders of civilization were the six Master of the Furnace Core of the war machine, whom Wen Jing saw when he Wen Jing.
In Wen Jing's view, their technology development path is somewhat like the process of 'creating the perfect shell'.
The ultimate dream of mechanical ascension is to stuff the most vulnerable part of 'consciousness' into the hardest and strongest 'shell'.
In order to better extract Skill Points from the Forging Alliance technology, Wen Jing spent two hundred Skill Points to perform an evolution.
By studying the cosmic algorithms of the Light Language Civilization, she discovered that there exists a primitive technological barrier between the technology trees of different species and civilizations.
While in the Federation, there was no such restriction on learning various knowledge and combat skills, because she was originally human.
As for the technology of extraterrestrial civilizations, it's not enough for Wen Jing to just see and understand the principles; he must be able to apply it to make it a skill.
But whether from her own perspective or as a 'super-civilization individual', she certainly wouldn't evolve a pair of Krik People pincers to screw things in, only to gain a few basic Skill Points.
She chose to directly evolve her body into a [Biological Furnace].
This newly born ability, or rather, organ, created bubble-like cavities between her exoskeleton and internal tissues.
The substances Wen Jing ingests can now be Digestion or transferred into these cavities for decomposition and recombination within his own body.
This is a technological application of the Forging Alliance.
However, in terms of fuel, she does not need to prepare antimatter, but uses the high-dimensional energy of the Awakened; in terms of control precision, her Wilderness Body is stronger than all their materials, and her control is more subtle.
The pinnacle of the opposing civilization is at the nanoscale, while she can reach even smaller molecular levels.
Wen Jing can now be described as a walking biological processing plant; in the past it only devoured, but now it can also transform and manufacture.
"Splash splash splash..."
After the Zergling took a few bites of soil, a few seconds later, a piece of corundum, the iconic material of the Forging Alliance, 'grew' out from the carapace of her forelimb.
[Mastered ' Forging-Kelike Civilization Lv10 ', Skill Points +600]
"Click click click..."
Seeing the prompt on the panel, Wen Jing was satisfied and put the newly forged corundum into his mouth, eating it like a biscuit.
She has little use for technological materials; her own exoskeleton is her best weapon, and she manufactures them to gain Skill Points.
During this period of study, she acquired nearly six thousand Skill Points in total, including a metallurgical processing technique and other miscellaneous artistic skills. Her efficiency was astonishing.
Not only is it faster than her full-fledged investment in the ruins of civilization, but more importantly, the source is stable, because the time consumed by devouring the core of a civilization is uncertain.
Moreover, the Biological Furnace is not only useful for the Forging Alliance's technology; it is essentially a 'factory'. In the future, when it encounters new individual civilizations, it can continue to be refined and upgraded, applying new technologies and gaining more Skill Points.
During this time, the strongest Clone also completed the exploration of the ruins of two civilizations in the Ancient Wilderness.
The Reconnaissance Clone prioritized conquering the easy targets, while other known civilization ruins were either from later eras or involved complex and time-consuming processes.
The core of the civilization that Wen Jing devoured consisted of two things: a white glove and a manuscript that explained the lever principle using Geometry.
They acquired the traits [Duel Invitation] and [Natural Lever], respectively.
Compared to the four features previously acquired, these two features are much more practical.
[Duel Invitation] can forcibly attract the hatred of a Wilderness Beast and some remnant creatures of civilizations, which is somewhat similar to the [Taunting Gaze] of Helian, the runner-up of the Freshman League. However, the effect is on a single target, and it is unknown whether it can be countered by rationality.
In addition, if the target of this Wen Jing attacks others or is attacked by others, the damage they suffer will be reduced.
Normally, once a target receives Duel Invitation from Wen Jing, they must fight her one-on-one to determine a winner.
This characteristic, combined with her ability to Clone, creates an interesting chemical reaction...
Yes, although this feature is a shared cooldown and can only lock onto one duel opponent at a time, all of Wen Jing's Clone are considered ' Wen Jing ' in the judgment.
In other words, it's read as 1V1, but in practice it can be 1V3.
Another characteristic, [Natural Lever], as the name suggests, can enhance the effect of a certain natural force, but the natural force cannot exceed Wen Jing's own tolerance. After all, the lever has been destroyed, so it can no longer be used.
Furthermore, the core of leverage is borrowing and amplifying; it does not exert force itself. In other words, this characteristic requires the existence of available forces before it can be effective.
This characteristic can be applied in both the natural Ancient Wilderness and the universe, but it is relatively unstable.
At the same time, Wen Jing also decided to try to raise the scope of exploring the ruins of civilizations to a higher level, heading to the 'advanced dungeons' of the industrial age and even the information age.
One reason is that the time required to conquer the remaining pre-industrial ruins is increasing, while the Skill Points gained are not; it's time to adjust our strategy.
Another reason is that with enough samples, she found that the characteristics and abilities obtained from the relics of civilizations of the same era were different, but in terms of strength, they were not much different.
Therefore, the characteristics and even Skill Points that can be obtained from this should be positively correlated with the depth of the world.
Wen Jing wants to take revenge, the most basic requirement is to be able to fight against an S-class. The power of the S-class's 'rules' can only be obtained through self-evolution or by devouring the core of a more dangerous civilization's ruins.
