Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 480 - 15: Biological Computer (Part 2)

Gao Gong’s body is somewhat special.

Well, more than somewhat, to be precise, extraordinarily special.

Half of him is a mechanical body, and the other half is an organism.

In the universe, there is a law: machines and machines are incompatible. The first refers to the Carbon-Based Civilization, and the second to the Mechanical Civilization.

Once a civilization is established, technologies from other routes can at most play an auxiliary role; fusion is a completely different matter.

The more advanced the civilization, the more difficult the fusion.

But Gao Gong knows that one of the universe’s supreme dominators follows the fusion route.

Level 9 Civilization - Eternal Dynasty

One of the most powerful civilizations in this universe, perhaps even the most powerful.

Even among Level 9 civilizations, it is one of the few terrifying entities that can mass-produce Tier 9 Species.

Tier 9 Species, Level 270.

The mastermind behind the Cyber Tide that Gao Gong painstakingly deals with is merely Level 180.

That’s freakishly twisted!

In Gao Gong’s impression, as the late-stage plot of "Cyber Realm" unfolds, three major cosmic calamities descend, and some super civilizations, ones even Mr. G had to look up to in the previous era, are reduced to ashes with a wave of the hand by these calamities.

The Four Great Civilizations Systems had virtually no power to resist against the formless, organic, and fallen powers.

Yet the Eternal Dynasty stands as one of the few that can confront the three cosmic calamities head-on.

Therefore, in his reincarnation, Gao Gong chose this route without the slightest hesitation.

Of course, the true difficulty of the fusion route will only become apparent after ascension, so for now, at Level 29, Gao Gong is considered low-level cannon fodder in the universe.

But precisely because it’s low-level, the margin for error is very high. Otherwise, why would those advanced civilizations always love establishing Cyber Test Fields?

Though it was an illusion, Gao Gong felt as if he had returned to the mother’s womb.

But this time, he was no longer a tadpole, but rather a ’database’.

And within the database, there were eight different types of codes corresponding to the eight major human body systems.

Vast amounts of ’body codes’ surged forth for secondary editing.

The Brain-in-a-Vat was responsible for editing the ’body codes’.

And in charge of reorganizing hardware, naturally, was the ’Keramos Large: Scale Biological Computer’.

[Your Neural System Transformation Rate +3%]

[Your Neural System Transformation Rate +2%]

[Your Sports System Transformation Rate +2%]

[Your Endocrine System Transformation Rate +2%]

...

Gao Gong could clearly feel that his body was undergoing changes.

The brain began to repartition, with its operational speed skyrocketing.

While the increased Neural System Transformation Rate and increased perception and intelligence would enhance the brain’s computational power,

this time it was clearly different as the brain transformed into the hardware layer central processor, with the other seven systems becoming core processing units.

And its processing efficiency increased a hundredfold.

In other words, even without activating skills, Gao Gong could edit his body.

Or you could call it —— ’self-evolution’.

For Gao Gong, this was absolutely advantageous!

The rich theoretical experience but insufficient practical conditions are Gao Gong’s current state.

And transforming into a biological computer enables Gao Gong to break through this shackling!

Instantly, countless forms of underlying transformations begun appearing throughout the body.

On the human skeleton, countless bizarre circuits appeared on the bone surface and embedded within; some ribs, shin bones, etc., even collapsed due to code restructuring.

Then they immediately restored.

The Sports System is akin to a motherboard, playing a stabilizing role.

Then, it was the human endocrine system, which is biological memory; the bio-information it secretes doesn’t disappear but is stored in various endocrine organs.

Most human modifications enhance one or two system transformation rates.

But this time is quite special, as this transformation is an all-encompassing enhancement of the eight systems.

The remaining 15% transformation rate of the Biological System got filled as quickly as breathing.

’Has your body already reached its limit?’

The voice of the Brain-in-a-Vat rang out in confusion.

It seldom saw organism modifications reaching an overflowing extent.

’Uh, I modified a bit too much before.’

Might as well take this chance to tidy up all unused chaotic bloodlines from before.

With a thought, Gao Gong had already thrown past bloodlines, like Enhanced Bloodthirsty Leg, Regenerative Organ, Qi and Blood Circulation, and Biological Blood Armor, into the recycling bin (Digestive System) to be cleared.

This is also a unique ability of biological computers—to swap talents and skills.

Just that alone freed up 20% more transformation space.

Finally, with the transformation into a ’modem’ of the Reproductive System fixed at 25%, all biological transformations were thoroughly completed.

[Your Biological Energy +10000]

[Your Bloodline ’Intermediate Energy Symbiote’ advanced to Advanced]

Advanced Energy Symbiote: A type of advanced organism capable of initiating energy resonance; biological movement equals energy movement; energy conversion efficiency 1/1 (Biological Energy/Particle Energy)

[You have obtained ’biological computer’ mode]

Biological Computer (Tier 1 max): A biocomputing machine used for high-speed calculations capable of numeric and logical computations, possessing memory storage functions; a modern intelligent biological device that automatically and swiftly processes massive amounts of data according to program operations.

Gao Gong opened his eyes, and in an instant, he could sharply perceive the operation of every human body system, the division of each cell, and large amounts of bioelectricity leaping between electrical potentials—they were ’booting up’.

In an instant, Gao Gong felt he was observing the world from a ’computer’ perspective.

Both familiar and alien.

Numerous neurons had turned into lines of signal codes. As Gao Gong opened his eyes, the display screen fully opened.

At this time, within the brain disc, Paradise Bird, Aidolu, and Ahong stared in amazement at their surroundings.

The originally football-field-sized brain disc expanded rapidly, the white walls began to extend rapidly, expanding a hundredfold.

At the same time, holographic screens appeared within the brain disc.

Visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory senses, including body motion data, breathing frequency, digestion speed, various neurotransmitter secretion efficiencies, and effects—all turned into data and refreshed furiously.

Big data analysis, enhancement, re-analysis, re-enhancement.

Not only internally but also externally.

Ahong and Aidolu almost simultaneously dissolved, and when they regained consciousness, they had turned into two small running programs.

’Eh? Have we been digested?’

’Are you in the Digestive System? I’m next door, in the Endocrine System.’

This couple of idle fish wandered around curiously, not even the slightest bit nervous.

As for Paradise Bird, she frowned, the flame of codes spurted out from her skin, resisting this transformation.

"What the heck are you doing?!"

Gao Gong didn’t speak. Instead, countless holographic screens appeared, filled with combat data on her, deconstructed, recombined, and predicted.

This efficiency is not even in the same league as ordinary combat chips.
