Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 114: Chapter 101: V-Type Carbon Atom Reactor

The application of advanced mutation abilities demands requirements for body modification.

If the corresponding transformation rate is not reached, forcing a move will lead to backlash.

Gao Gong can meet the transformation rates of the sports system and neural system, but he hasn’t reached the 4% required for the respiratory system.

However, fortunately, Gao Gong modified his skin, allowing him to use ’pore breathing’ to replace the ’respiratory system.’

But because of this, there was now an additional pre-motion shake for skills.

Gao Gong looked at his moving right foot, somewhat speechless.

Body breathing indeed subconsciously requires effort.

Matsushima Keiko was the first to jump out, shouting, ”You lost!”

Gao Gong scanned around and saw that only three Mechanical Hunters could still remain standing. The others had either smashed into tables or collided with walls, each grimacing in pain.

Remembering these three Mechanical Hunters’ faces, Gao Gong grinned.

”Alright, I admit defeat.”

”For those brothers who have taken action, think carefully about how to modify.”

”However, if you want to modify the reproductive system, remember to do the first procedure first. I, with a kind heart, do not engage in lethal acts.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone started howling with excitement.

Throughout the Radiation Zone, there are fewer than 10 Prosthetic Doctors. An Oasis might not even have one.

Having a Prosthetic Doctor perform a customized modification for them is an enormous opportunity.

The faces of those watching the drama immediately turned ugly.

Especially the Crawler, looking at his half-grown arm, regret filled his heart. Had he known, he would have stepped in, even if just as a sidekick.

Gao Gong observed this silently, smiling slightly.

Regardless of their intentions, he wanted to show everyone through action that those who comply will have food.

Overall, Gao Gong was quite satisfied with the quality of these experts.

In a real fight, even if he went all out, facing so many, he might not win.

The stronger the subordinates, the better. Those who can be solved with just a move or two are mere cannon fodder.

Building a force is urgent; those who can hold the fort will be heavily utilized.

And these Hunter experts were also quite satisfied with Gao Gong as a boss—generous, capable in a fight, and most importantly, following him promised prospects, which was crucial.

Gao Gong didn’t change locations, instead directly starting a self-service barbecue on the now chaotic battleground.

Various natural meats were served. These bumpkins had never tasted such delicacies, eating with greasy mouths.

Most of this planet is heavily polluted, making it necessary to transport normal food from a space base, using high-tech spaceships to deliver fruits, vegetables, poultry, and fish. It sounds magical, but that is reality.

During the event, Gao Gong also had his number one flute-playing virgin, Spider Lady Daisila, challenge these experts one-on-one.

As expected, Daisila could effortlessly crush these peers.

This brought her immense joy.

So this is how pleasurable it is to bully others.

Group fights proved her strength.

One-on-ones showed that she indeed had techniques to help them break through.

It’s a pity the system panel didn’t show this, otherwise, organizational cohesion would have increased by at least 1000.

...

After drinking nearly all night, there was no hangover feeling.

Early in the morning, Gao Gong opened his eyes, glancing at the experts sleeping heavily around him, smirking.

Can’t win in a fight, can’t outdrink, doomed to be flunkies for life.

Returning to the sixth floor, he took a bath to wash away the alcohol smell, then changed into the clothes brought by the server, only to find, embarrassingly, that most didn’t fit.

Gao Gong finally realized the Hulk’s troubles.

”Oh well, just like this.”

Seeing the suit torn again by his mechanical spine, Gao Gong waved his hand speechlessly, heading to the fifth floor bare-chested.

Everyone was busy.

Core members knew that Gao Gong had no intention of running away.

Thus, the Beast Tide was the Sword of Damocles, destined to fall upon them.

He found Du Zhaodi, who had been working overnight, coincidentally, the Little Woman was there too.

Upon seeing Gao Gong, Huang Yuanli was taken aback, blurting out, ”Pervert!”

Why start calling names so early?

Gao Gong glanced at the ponytail girl, only to find she too looked at him in shock.

”Can’t be, just one day apart, and you don’t recognize me?” Gao Gong remarked puzzledly.

”See for yourself!”

Huang Yuanli dragged and pushed him to the mirror, as if a moment’s delay would lead to the world’s end.

”Whoa, isn’t this the Great Serpent from King of Fighters.”

Compared to the Great Serpent, aside from Gao Gong’s hair being black and the blood-red patterns on his upper body, with an extra row of protruding mechanical spine bones on his back, he’s essentially the same type.

Even his aura was quite similar, with that innate disdain of higher life forms.

”There’s not much difference really,” Gao Gong flicked his silver-colored nails at the Little Woman’s head, ”Just think of me as taking the handsome man route.”

The appearance can actually be restored, using some bionic technologies for example.

Du Zhaodi quickly came to her senses, saying, ”This is the information I organized yesterday.”

Gao Gong quickly skimmed through, and soon, the system panel refreshed with a series of items.

[You have obtained 33% of the data on the Devil Mountain Armored Tiger-Devouring Type V Mecha]

[You have obtained 41% of the data on the Bio-Fusion Armor]

As expected of the factory flower of the past, in just one day and night, she has analyzed so much from the Devil Mountain corpse handed to her by Gao Gong.

Seemingly reading Gao Gong’s thoughts, Du Zhaodi shook her head.

”It’s not that I’m particularly skilled, but my Armor Research Institute has back-engineered mecha technology before.”

”That’s still impressive,” Gao Gong praised, thinking that if she had a system panel, her ’repair skills’ would definitely be at full level.

Du Zhaodi thought for a moment and said:

”If we can safely get through the Beast Tide and develop a new Oasis, I will send an invitation to my department, asking them to construct a new research center there.”

Equipment Research Institute, Gao Gong had never heard of it, and he was 100% certain it was a niche institute. After all, every major corporation has its own R&D department, and no one needs a factory to research equipment.

The Equipment Research Institute... what could it possibly research?

However, niche or not, it’s still a complete research department, which is far better than Gao Gong having to start from scratch, recruit a team, and set up a production line.

”Of course, no problem. You’re the future female president, you call the shots,” Gao Gong said sincerely.

Huang Yuanli gagged behind Gao Gong.

Du Zhaodi smiled with her lips pursed, looking quite pleased.

Rich ladies and rich ladies are not the same; the Rose Rich Lady likes to hear sweet talk, while the factory flower rich lady likes to hear about ’joint ventures’.

Perhaps this Equipment Research Institute is a dowry this factory flower prepared for herself.

”Is it possible to replicate either of them?” Gao Gong returned to the main topic.

Du Zhaodi shook her head, ”That mecha is Mother City technology, using some materials I’ve never even heard of, and I haven’t heard of any factory producing similar products.”

”Complete replication is indeed unlikely,” Gao Gong nodded.

”However, the materials used in the Bio-Fusion Armor were analyzed by Professor Han and me, and they seem to be a fusion of various Radiation Beast Cells.”

Gao Gong’s spirits lifted.

From what he knew, ’Reproduction Technology’ is a ’Professional Knowledge Chain’ of a Level 2 Civilization. If professional knowledge could be deduced through the Bio-Fusion Armor, that would be fantastic.

”But it’s not feasible at the moment.”

”No worries, there will be opportunities in the future.”

Du Zhaodi seemed a bit tired, leaning gently against Gao Gong, while he softly stroked her back, secretly evaluating her size.

The scene was very warm.

”Cough cough cough cough—”

Only then did Du Zhaodi notice the presence of a third wheel, getting up somewhat embarrassingly.

”Come with me, I’ll show you something good.”

The two, along with the persistent third wheel, walked into a lounge inside.

Inside, what lay was the dismantled and scattered Devil Mountain corpse.

The scene wasn’t gruesome but rather had the feel of a factory assembly room.

Among the pile of scraps, Du Zhaodi picked up a dark object and handed it over.

”This is my gift to you.”

Gao Gong accepted in astonishment.

[You have obtained a Level 7 mechanical product, internal engine - V-Type Carbon Atom Reactor]

”This thing didn’t explode!” Gao Gong marveled, no wonder it was a Level 7 creation.

But it’s quite impressive that Du Zhaodi managed to disassemble it, given that there was a Mother City secret device inside.

Once the mechanical body is destroyed, it’s supposed to self-destruct.

Perhaps the A-level Radiation Field at the time damaged some energy circuits, leading the reactor to mistakenly think the mechanical body was still in a charging state.

Even so, the fact she managed to disassemble it is a testament to this factory rich lady’s impressive screw-loosening talent.

This thing is standard Level 2 Civilization Black Technology, comparable to Iron Man’s Arc Reactor.

In terms of energy output and consumption, the two are quite similar. Performance-wise, the Carbon Atom Reactor is somewhat better than the first-generation Arc Reactor but can’t match the second generation.

After all, the second generation could power an Energy Cannon.

However, the Carbon Atom Reactor has one advantage: it can directly supply bio-energy.

This means it can be implanted as a human organ without Biological Rejection.

If Iron Man had researched this model back then, he wouldn’t have suffered from palladium poisoning.

Looking at the other shattered parts, Du Zhaodi remarked regretfully, ”Actually, I’m more interested in its energy output system. After all, we definitely can’t produce reactors of this caliber.”

A thought struck Gao Gong; he remembered getting a directional lottery from the system after taking down the Devil Mountain, which he hadn’t used yet.

”Give me a kiss.”

”Hmm, hmm?” Du Zhaodi blushed instantly.

Gao Gong wasn’t concerned about the Lolita third wheel, so he pecked her on the mouth.

’Rich lady, rich lady, no worries about making money, some have friends, I have a rich lady.’

Gao Gong silently blessed himself and decisively activated the lottery.

[You have obtained a Level 5 Mechanical Blueprint [Devil’s Jet Three-Phase Type]]

”Wh-what kind of look is that?” Du Zhaodi felt thoroughly embarrassed under his ’affectionate’ gaze.

”Nothing, just thinking that it’s wonderful being with you (a rich lady).”

This made Huang Yuanli extremely nauseous, as she flew in with a kick, hitting Gao Gong’s knee.

It seems having a rich lady truly brings good fortune, as shortly after, more good news arrived.

The Security Corps requested negotiations through Dark Net channels.
