Chapter 393: Chapter 151: Destructive Energy

Life Industry, Human Body Experimentation Center

“Boss, they’re bullying me~~~”

When Xiao Yu came over, looking pitiful with a bruised and battered face, Gao Gong’s eyes twitched.

Xiao Yu looked miserable, really miserable, with her short neck-length hair turned into a frizzy mess, her face bruised here and swollen there. Even worse was her body, with numerous parts cracked and the carbon atom reactor emitting black smoke, the energy vent was half in a cracked state, clearly a result of energy overconsumption.

Not to mention other losses, the carbon atom reactor is a Level 7 mechanical product, a standard Level 2 civilization premium. This thing mounted on a small spaceship could last an hour; how on earth did you manage to blow it up?

Gao Gong vigorously rubbed her cheeks and said word by word, “What did I tell you before? I asked you to hold the fort, not to wreck the place, and damn it, you went one against a group. Why not just take a knife and storm the Illusionary Union headquarters?”

Xiao Yu’s eyes lit up, “Boss, can I really do that? Then can you get me a better mechanical body? I feel like I can do it again!”

“You can do shit!”

Gao Gong waved his hand, and the mechanical body transformed back into a sword form. Xiao Yu’s head was ejected out, caught by a mechanical arm on the wall, a cable inserted into her rear head. Instantly, her eyelids began to flicker. Before falling asleep, the battle maiden was still reluctant, shouting:

“Boss, lend me an advanced mechanical body, and I’ll cut my way to the ninth heaven!”

Are you reincarnated as a Soldier King or something!?

How could you boldly say such an overly dramatic line!

It made my skin crawl all over the place!

Gao Gong turned around, with acquaintances either sitting or standing, each with a weird expression.

Jarvis, Qin Chunzi, Lady Red Dream, Jack·K, Collider, Pupil, Dong Gang.

Among them, every single one counts as a humanoid monster with a boss template.

“But to be fair, it’s pretty lucky this dramatic girl didn’t get killed,” Gao Gong muttered, feeling a sigh of relief.

“Boss, it might not just be luck, Miss Xiao Yu really made quite an impression this time,” said Little A.

“Yeah, there’s always fresh data willing to break through server limitations, cough cough,” Lady Red Dream said, her face slightly pale, with a self-deprecating laugh, “I couldn’t have done it myself.”

“A mysterious girl took on two, severely injuring Old Pawa and the 3rd Generation Steel Claw, isn’t that bizarre?” Collider mused while browsing the news.

As a Mother City warrior, Collider didn’t think much of about 99% of Nightless City’s individual combat power. Only a mere couple of people, even he admitted he might not win against.

This included those two.

Among them, Old Pawa was his colleague, possibly with a higher level than him, naturally, nothing to say about that. As for this 3rd Generation Steel Claw, being a big shot aspiring to establish a world-class military group, boosted by the group’s research power, their combat power surpassing Mechanical City’s limits wasn’t surprising either.

Xiao Yu one against two, and winning, that’s outrageous.

Gao Gong thought for a moment, then called over Tamil, who came back to report.

“Tamil, you were a witness, what was the situation back then?”

Tamil admired, “Back then, it was chaotic, Miss Xiao taking on two strong adversaries alone, lightning flashing and thunder roaring, shadows flickering. She slashed Naga the Mechanical Mage’s arm with one strike and stabbed a mysterious youth’s abdomen with another. Miss Xiao, despite being severely injured, awakened the Martial Spirit of the Sub-human Continent’s Mechanical Samurai, forcing the negotiation team to retreat…”

“Don’t tell me those oldsters from the Powerful Gang and the leader of the Steel Claw Gang were also scared off by that non-sensical Martial Spirit—they would fear being surrounded?”

These two, one being a hidden faction boss, the other a large faction boss, carrying at least two boss templates, with levels not below 50, plus one’s essence being a Mother City database, the other capable of summoning Corporate Will, how could they fear being surrounded.

Tamil hesitated a bit and said, “The situation at the time was hard to describe. Miss Xiao Yu was clearly in some state, according to Clan Leader Yao Xue, those two weren’t as severely injured as reported in the news but were slightly injured. If the fight continued, one of them would definitely remain.”

“That fierce?”

Gao Gong blinked. He knew his own strength. Solely relying on his mechanical body’s power to face a Level 50 faction boss was at most a 70/30 split, with him being 30. Even with the support of Xiao Yu’s three templates, he estimated the odds would be at most 50/50.

The level gap is challenging to bridge.

Could his skill in manipulating machinery really be outdone by this simple-minded one?

Gao Gong couldn’t help but doubt himself.

“Cough cough, we’ll talk about this later. Looks like the two also got quite injured?”

Gao Gong’s gaze fell on Jack·k and Lady Red Dream. If he remembered correctly, before leaving, he had left their numbers for Daisila.

Were they intercepted by Powerful Gang experts and got into a fight?

“You better resolve the chip issue, or I’m out,” Jack·k wore a gloomy expression, his implant skin cracked, revealing scars.

It looked like he’d been severely beaten up.

As for Lady Red Dream, although it didn’t show on the surface, just from the overflowing sensory data, Gao Gong could feel the injuries were no light matter.

“The remnants of the old era ultimately can’t resist the tide of the times,” Lady Red Dream’s tone surprisingly carried a hint of desolation.

And Jack·k’s eye twitched.

In a sense, both were people of the old era.

Adding in Collider and Pupil, who were also injured, the captured Chapai, and Xiao Yu, who broke her mechanical body—

On the allied side, the combat power was genuinely severely weakened.

“Remember, I originally planned to leave here, but you called me over. You need to solve this problem!” Jack K said bluntly.

“Of course,” Gao Gong smiled.

After the high-level forces left, Gao Gong first inquired about the project progress and was very satisfied. The ’Laughing Bat’ chip had already entered the preliminary mass production stage.

Dong Gang also brought favorable news: he had completed all the technical breakthroughs for ’Brain Transformation’ and was now working on the development of ’Large-scale Human Transformation’ according to Gao Gong’s design.

“Boss, my exchanges with Professor Yuu have been very inspiring. You should have a good chat with her.”

Finally, Dong Gang, who had always been a research fanatic, surprisingly recommended someone to Gao Gong.

Professor Yuu?

Gao Gong remembered clearly, before leaving Nightless City, he had someone recruit a bankrupt biologist and then quietly had players send them out, responsible for genetic restoration on Fucheng Island.

That professor seemed to have the surname Yuu.

But from Dong Gang’s tone, this professor was female?

Could she be a female pervert?

That would certainly be meeting a kindred spirit.

“Let me see what’s going on, how did this chuunibyou girl become so fierce? Is chuunibyou truly a powerful force?”

“Or is there something special that makes you willing to be severely injured just to let her unleash it?”

After everyone left, Gao Gong beckoned with a hand, and the next moment, the Mechanical Splitting Greatsword once again transformed into a human form, with mechanical bones covered in cracks. It was clear that the girl truly didn’t consider herself an outsider and gave it a good thrashing.

The fusion of mechanical body and organism was also quickly completed.

At the same time, the mechanical body’s memories rapidly transmitted into Gao Gong’s mind.

First was the rich golden light, covering the horizon, especially a single sword and blade in the golden light, which were the core.

Gao Gong was stunned.

’Solidified Energy Weapon, holy shit, and Emperor’s Might too. Are you some kind of martial arts genius? Just one look and you’ve mastered it! And even fused it!’

Emperor’s Might itself doesn’t have lethal power, but when fused with a blade or sword, that’s another story.

Weapons containing Emperor’s Might, for the mechanical body, that would be a critical strike of critical strikes.

No wonder those two guys wanted to run away. If it were Gao Gong, he too… wait, the skills are his own, the mechanical body is his own, even the user is his own employee, why would he run?

But that’s not enough.

Opening all three boss templates does indeed provide cross-level destructive power, but to send two superpower bosses fleeing in terror, there must be something else.

Soon, Gao Gong noticed, during the engagement, the blade of the Dragon Scale Greatsword gradually became wrapped in a layer of black substance, and wherever the sword passed, it left massive afterimages in the air.

This stuff slashed at Old Pawa’s personality clone, one strike one little kid, and slashing through the rocket rain summoned by the 3rd Generation Steel Claw, it was similarly a strike a patch. And it wasn’t an explosion, everything engulfed by the black sword light disintegrated into fragment particles.

It was precisely because of this bug-level attack that the big shots of the two factions had to beat a hasty retreat.

“What the heck, Advanced Dark Matter? Annihilating Star Dust? Supernova Energy?”

Gao Gong watched for a long time and couldn’t figure it out, and when he glanced at the system panel, aside from a headache-inducing ’62% damage’, there was an unassuming ’Black Vein’ below Life Value and above Mechanical Energy.

Destructive Energy: 36% (Charging)

Destructive Energy?

By definition, isn’t this energy exclusive to the Destruction Form?

Never mind when you conceived my bones, when did I conceive yours?

Undoubtedly, Destructive Energy is a type of advanced energy, possibly the most top-tier energy in this Cyber Test Field, unparalleled.

After all, this is something even an Advanced Civilization hasn’t figured out, or rather, wants to figure out.

So this thing can be replicated.

Gao Gong was both surprised and delighted.

Good fellow, why didn’t you say so earlier, since I already have your bones, then naturally I forgive you.

I’ll fix your body and build it for you!

Little girl, keep it up! Keep seeding!

…

On Gao Gong’s side, the old and weak, the sick and wounded, and various losses, the other side wasn’t doing well either. The Powerful Gang, Deep Web Weaver, Steel Claw Gang, almost all the higher-ups were injured.

Being injured is one thing, the key is that the agreement wasn’t reached, and their home was stolen.

It’s so damn miserable.
