Chapter 332: Chapter 104: General Xiao

Sensory Data Programming (Intermediate): Quickly receive sensory data converted from human signals to develop, edit, and reset virtual programs.

Compared to basic Sensory Data Programming, the intermediate level introduces a ’reset’ effect, which is a programmer’s major move against capitalists — ’delete and run’.

Though not many succeed in running away, most end up with a pair of silver bracelets.

But for a hacker, this skill is just perfect.

The effect of this move is actually terrifying. For computers, it’s just deleting a database, but for the human brain, it’s a standard brainwashing technique.

When Gao Gong first entered the Nightless City, the hacker who accompanied him used precisely this technique.

And the other two professional knowledge items seem equally dangerous.

Digital Punk Level 1: In this world, there will always be some system governing all beings, which can be a powerful institution, corporation, religion, or societal values and ethics, and what the punk does is delve into these governing systems, study them, and deviate from them.

This professional knowledge, like other hacker knowledge, can be used as a skill.

Beyond a bunch of confusing introductions, its biggest use is actually the artificial manipulation of emotions and crafting of virtual personalities.

For example, a certain roast turkey embedded anger in the code and thus developed revolutionary means.

The other type of professional knowledge is the exact opposite of ’Digital Punk’, where ’Digital Punk’ exploits system loopholes, ’System Transformation’ patches the system.

System Transformation Level 1: Technicians summarize and integrate the logical patterns between life forms and machines and apply them to build extremely complex systems.

This move is actually the major technique of a ’Neural Editor’; in ancient times, it was called ’Informationization Building’, ’Smart City’, ’KPI Assessment’.

In today’s terms, it’s ’Human Brain Linkage’, ’Corporate Will Generator’, ’Human-Machine Integration’, ’Thought Cooperation Acceleration’.

Whether it’s the human body system, corporate system, or Mechanical City system, they all have a fairly wide range of applications.

Thus, in any era, programmers are highly sought after.

“Since it’s done, I can also cancel the transformation. Unlike combat transformation, our transformation has a time limit.”

Seeing the skyrocketing human rejection rate, Gao Gong decided decisively to end the transformation, but before transforming back, he planned to try the ultimate move.

Which was to unleash the Emperor’s Might under the fusion route!

Gao Gong’s fist instantly turned golden yellow, and cracks began to emerge, centered on the back of his fist.

Almost simultaneously, a thin crack appeared on the Mechanical Body, not just on one, but on all robots, and not just robots, but also on ancient Mechanical Armor Soldiers and Xiao Yu.

The Mechanical Armor Soldier stared blankly at the cracks on the armor, completely stunned.

And Xiao Yu, looking at the cracks on her abdomen and chest, had only one thought in mind: If it gets any worse, the boss can get me a new body!

The Emperor’s Might of the ancient Emperor was built on the ancient industrial system, equivalent to a ’master control switch’.

While Gao Gong’s Emperor’s Might, in the ’Complete Form’, turned into control over biomechanical entities. Gradually, the Emperor’s Light changed from golden yellow to dark gold.

All radiation energy was completely released, and when Gao Gong’s combined fists hammered down with thick arms, an endless dark golden radiance engulfed the entire Robot Corps.

When the dark golden radiance vanished, all robots were in a downtime state.

The only one still standing was Xiao Yu by the sea. She crossed her arms, her eyes’ white glow dim, yet she smiled joyfully, even having the leisure to give Gao Gong a thumbs up.

“Boss, I blocked it!”

Looking at the billowing black smoke on the opponent’s Mechanical Body, Gao Gong had only one thought in mind.

“Damn it, these crafty people, filing false expense claims on me!”

[Mission completed, reward: One Customizable Transformation]

…

The Emperor’s Might is an extremely powerful wide-range AOE, with the sole drawback that it inherently lacks Attack Power.

So before long, these robots stood up again, exchanged a few glances, and dove back underwater.

Meanwhile, Gao Gong and the others had already delved back underwater, entering Dr. Rong’s robot factory.

Assembly lines were assembling, and hundreds of unmanned mechanical arms were operating autonomously.

A holographic projection appeared, and a ’Einstein’ tied up in five different ways emerged, with a tantalizing lady looming behind him, explosively curvaceous.

This was Gao Gong’s optimization based on years of watching films, perfecting the most enticing form.

The A in Little A comes from AV.

Gao Gong looked at him with interest, “What else do you have to say?”

Dr. Rong appeared despondent, his eyes fiery, a combination hard to imagine on the same face.

“I see, I see, control is far from the limit. Only by mastering both control and chaos simultaneously can one reach perfection!!”

“Allow me to dissect you, no, to serve you!”

“If you want to work for me, introduce yourself first.”

“Of course, my name is Rong Fei, born from Gene Warehouse No. 19 of the Mother City of Cybertron. The purpose of our batch of brain reprogrammers was to provide quality service to mechanical life…”

Just as he said, Rong Fei, being a genetically engineered baby born in Cybertron, was naturally proficient in mechanics. Their kind was bred to assist in the evolution of mechanical life, and during this process, Rong Fei constantly improved himself, from Mechanical Apprentice, Armed Scholar, and then to Mechanical Expert, and afterward—there was no afterward.

He was exiled from the Mother City because he castrated a bunch of mechanical life forms.

And through a special opportunity, he acquired the ruins of the ’Ancient Research Station’ and headed to Fucheng Island.

Just as Gao Gong expected, being a person from the Mother City, he successfully duped Gao Jin, and Gao Jin, in order to rise, decisively betrayed the islanders of Fucheng Island; thus, one living person after another disappeared, and one robot after another was born.

Xiao Yu was furious, jumping up to hit the other: “You actually killed so many people to make robots!”

“To be precise, it’s shallow brainwashing. These people had very special combat programs that I couldn’t replicate, and completely deleting them would be a waste, so I sealed most of their consciousness, retaining only the combat functions.”

The combat programs mentioned by the other party were more than likely Mechanical Art.

At this point, Dr. Rong excitedly said: “Boss, that hacker expert under your command, I can cooperate with her to completely brainwash these islanders and turn them into pure machines!”

No wonder you are extreme materialism, good thing you’re only good at making machines, your hacking skills are not great, otherwise, all kinds of mechanical fetishism and large-scale hybridization, you could definitely pull off.

“Doctor, you must understand, purely mechanical robots have no future!”

“Yes, we should preserve their consciousness, use hacking technology to control them, then use biological means to force them to evolve madly. Once they evolve completely, then we can brainwash them and let them continue to evolve.”

Gao Gong benevolently patted Xiao Yu on the shoulder.

“See, this way, aren’t the people saved?”

Xiao Yu was dumbfounded, thinking, it’s better to let them die directly; you are the most wicked one of all!!

“By the way, you mentioned that ’opportunity,’ what exactly is it?” Gao Gong asked casually.

According to Dr. Rong, once he was solving a technical hurdle in the machine system and went to the library inside the Mother City to find related materials, he coincidentally learned about the ’Destruction Plan,’ and then tracked down the ruins of Research Station No. 7.

Nonsense!!

Gao Gong didn’t say Dr. Rong was talking nonsense; with this ’extreme materialism’ fanatic, in the situation where he patched things up, there was no way he would be deceived.

He found the ’opportunity’ nonsense.

The so-called ’opportunity,’ just like the ’good product recommendation’ on shopping websites, is not luck; it’s all the result of big data calculations.

Dr. Rong’s opportunity, in Gao Gong’s view, was extremely fortuitous.

In the past life on Noah’s Ark, Gao Gong and the refugee player buddies had conducted a review and came to a conclusion.

The three major Mother Cities were likely ’feeding wolves to strengthen themselves.’

This high-tech version of ’feeding wolves to strengthen themselves’ means secretly supporting different routes’ development directions, even if these forces are enemies of the Mother City, the Mother City would still secretly support them.

The aim wasn’t to ensure their power but for the advanced civilization’s interests.

The Cyber Test Field, since it’s called a test field, naturally has to allow trial and error.

And the ’pure mechanical route’ Dr. Rong took is likely one secretly supported by Cybertron.

“Boss, when will you let me dissect, no, study you, and create a Biomechanical Legion?” Dr. Rong said fanatically, completely unaware that he was now a captive.

“There will be a chance,” Gao Gong smiled, “but first, you have to help this little girl replace a body.”

“Alright, little girl, I really like you too, your mechanical body is very strong, very pure, I can smell the scent of a virgin from it!”

“Get lost, you pervert!!”

“Do you mind if I brainwash you?”

“I want to kill you!!!”

Xiao Yu was finally persuaded by Gao Gong to leave. In fact, if it weren’t for the need to restore the Fucheng Island’s islanders and needing Dr. Rong’s technology, Little Angel would have liked nothing better than to cut him down on the spot!

But Dr. Rong did like young girls, no help for it, mechanical girls were quite popular with perverts.

Gao Gong turned his head to look at the silent Mechanical Armor Soldier and smiled, “So what should I call you, General Xiao Yuanshan?”

The Mechanical Armor Soldier raised its head, its hollow eyes looked at the other, after a moment of silence, said: “How did you discover me?”

“Great idea, but the technical level is lacking, your Thought Box has obvious ’artificial traces,’ ordinary Ancient Mechanical Warriors could never possess AI like yours, so that you, who were besieged to death, should only be your flesh and part of the combat data, right.”
