Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 962: Chapter 68: Machine Spirit’s Delight

Gao Gong’s current level is 60, max, which is the upper limit for Tier 2.

And his Mechanical Transformation has reached 240%.

While the mechanical body transformation limit at level 60 is 300%.

In Gao Gong’s current state, not to mention the Tier 2 top-tier implanted equipment, even Tier 3 implants, if not particularly advanced, are of little use to him.

Once entering Fusion Mode, Mechanical Energy and Biological Energy will merge, entering a state of frenzy. In this state, most mechanical implants simply cannot handle such exaggerated amplification.

So the trick of ’binding the ancestral hall system’ came at the right time.

With a thought, he directly chose to agree. The next moment, inside the Gao Family Ancestral Hall, all the spiritual tablets began to shake, and strands of cold sensation swept across Gao Gong’s body.

Every cold sensation swept by, a complex code process would flash on a spiritual tablet; similarly, part of Gao Gong’s body would become colder.

[Your organism is infused with Ancestral Hall code, form adjusted, Biological Energy -10000, Mechanical Transformation Rate +1%]

[Your organism is infused with Ancestral Hall code, form adjusted, Biological Energy -10000]

[Your organism is infused with Ancestral Hall code, form adjusted, Biological Energy -10000, Mechanical Transformation Rate +1%]

...

Every code on the spiritual tablet scanned through, decreasing Gao Gong’s Biological Energy by 10,000, and there were 99 spiritual tablets in the ancestral hall. In a short moment, Gao Gong’s Biological Energy decreased by 990,000, from 4881100 down to 3891100.

Gao Gong’s skin began to rot, it loosened, forming many wrinkles, and age spots appeared on his face. He instantly transformed from the Rich Lady’s Little Wolf Dog who could last all night to an old man who pees ten times a night.

The gaze that once shone like a Deity now looked dim and blurred, and even the implanted eyes seemed to age along with it.

’Damn! Nobody mentioned that binding with a Tier 4 Ascension Architecture would consume Biological Energy, that’s so freaking absurd, does this mean without 990,000 Biological Energy, binding is not even possible.’

The problem mostly lies in the mutation of the mutated building.

He could feel that the aura of aging covered not just the organism but also the mechanical body, the spine module, rib module, and leg module, soon they all became rust-ridden, and this ’rust’ couldn’t even be restored by memory metal.

The only thing unchanged was the Vajra Alloy spine, straight as a sword.

This is the advantage of a mechanical body; it doesn’t have organ aging and will operate normally until its consumption reaches a limit.

This aging, once it reached its peak, gradually spread out. The aging aura began to cover the entire ancestral hall, and the spiritual tablets on the table ceased shaking, except for the ’Ancestor Spiritual Tablet’ where complex binary changes began to occur. This change resembled the DNA double helix structure, with more derivatives spawning from outside the helix structure, each change being a kind of mutation.

The floor opened up, a dark coffin suddenly rose from the ground, its doors wide open, sucking in Gao Gong.

The black coffin disappeared, so did Gao Gong’s figure partly, his skin not only wrinkled but the surface started to show rotting flesh.

More black coffins began closing in to imprison this ’old coffin plank’.

...

[Your organism is infused with Ancestral Hall code, form adjusted, Mechanical Energy +20000, Mechanical Transformation Rate +1%]

[Your organism is infused with Ancestral Hall code, form adjusted, Mechanical Energy +20000]

[Your organism is infused with Ancestral Hall code, form adjusted, Mechanical Energy +20000, Biological Transformation Rate +1%]

...

Once the 60% mechanical transformation space was filled, the rest would increase the Biological Transformation Rate.

The Biological Transformation Rate also increased by 30%.

Personal System: 300% (Mechanical Transformation) 230% (Biological Transformation)

In this process,

Biological Energy decreased by 990,000.

Mechanical Energy increased by 1,980,000.

Likewise, Gao Gong evolved from a living human being into a skeleton-hugging zombie with fanged canines, hair as messy as weeds, beneath the skin and bones was a dull metallic luster, parts of the skin cracked, exposing rusted bone joints, and the metal surface was covered in coarse, dark red particles.

Gao Gong’s thinking seemed to become sluggish as if a stroke of black was smeared onto his sensory system.

However, with a thought, Gao Gong’s skeletal hand gently grasped, splitting the ground, and scores of mechanical zombies began crawling out, ranging from level 60 to 80.

These zombies were the old zombies from the Xie Family, all imprisoned after Gao Gong took over the Xie Family Ancestral Hall.

And now, with a single gesture from Gao Gong, they appeared as if traveling through space, crawling out from the ground, walls, and ceiling.

’Not instant movement, but in an instant, these zombies entered the activated metal mode.’

’They can even freely traverse through the Superstar Alloy of a Star Destroyer!’

[You gained ’General Mode’, in this mode, you have primary control over mechanical zombies]

[Under your manipulation, mechanical zombies learned ’Metal Escape Skill’]

Metal Escape Skill: Able to freely traverse 90% of advanced metals.

Awesome!

This means the vast majority of metal barriers can be freely traversed by Gao Gong manipulating mechanical zombies.

This indeed belongs to the powerful ability of advanced species!

or 100 mechanical zombies might not be remarkable, but what about 100,000 or 1,000,000? To exaggerate, if the quantity is enough, it could instantly paralyze a dominator-level fleet.

Advanced species absolutely are not high-level cannon fodder!

Though the consumption of Biological Energy is a bit of a pain.

Gao Gong took a deep breath, his flesh quickly plumping back up as he switched out of ’General Mode’.

The connection with the Gao Family Ancestral Hall wasn’t severed.

It still carried a kind of intimacy of ’lying on the coffin plank’.

He can control mechanical zombies (with a certain limit in quantity), he can appoint who goes onto the electronic shrine, deciding with one thought the life and death of living dead in the Gao Family Ancestral Hall, enhancing personal affinity with large information life forms just like the ancestral hall.

Gao Gong had a thought to enter ’General Mode’ once more.

In this mode, Gao Gong’s body suddenly cracked, countless pitch-black fluid-like things flowed out, drilling into the coffin plank underneath the floor and connecting with the spiritual tablets.

Ancestral Source Code, human and ancestral hall as one, worshiping the ancestor is worshiping oneself.

What an exceptionally special feeling!

This feeling carried the oddity of squatting on the grave during a clear Ming festival, watching juniors kowtow to you.

So these mechanical zombies really kowtowed.

The mechanical zombies cultivated by the Xie Family were never numerous, at its peak, the number was just a few thousand, and after dimensional strikes with SS-level species spores, only about 300 remained, many zombies were missing limbs.

And as the mechanical zombies kowtowed, one after another, only in this state could Gao Gong see a black line appear.

Each black line emerged from the opponent’s chest and then entered his spiritual tablet, turning the entire Gao Family Ancestral Hall into a spider’s nest.

Then, an unexpected event occurred.

As the mechanical zombies worshiped, suddenly, a few system notifications popped up.

[Receiving faith from Gao Family deceased, your agility +1]

[Receiving faith from Gao Family deceased, your power +1]

[Receiving faith from Gao Family deceased, your endurance +1]

...

A series of ’ding dong’ sounds followed.

Finally concluding, Gao Gong’s power, agility, and endurance each increased by 10 points.

The faith of 300 mechanical zombies results in 30 attribute points.

What about 3,000?

What about 30,000?

What about 300,000?!

”Damn!”

Gao Gong suddenly realized where Industrial Xie’s ’collective consciousness’ came from.

The Xie Family Ancestral Hall’s power unexpectedly touched upon a trace of the ’Mechanical God Route’!

All sovereigns of machines are referred to as the God of All Machines.

And the Mechanical Realm is the most conducive system for the birth of divinity.

Machine God descends, Machine Spirit delights!
