Chapter 510 - 44: Biological Architecture (Part 2)
In just a few dozen seconds, this capture squad of corporate warriors over level 50 was on the verge of collapse.
The people watching the surveillance video couldn’t experience it personally, but Hao Jie, as one of the main characters on the battlefield, personally felt Mr. G’s terror.
A top-level corporate warrior had a blood volume of upwards of 100,000.
A squad leader level was equipped with a few specialties and had a blood volume of 150,000.
For someone like Hao Jie, who could be considered one of the top warriors with Balance Technology’s current level of technique, his blood volume was close to 300,000.
Adding on various modified skins and armor, even if hundreds of energy weapons hit him simultaneously, they wouldn’t be able to take him down in one shot.
But now, even without a display panel, Hao Jie could feel that under the frantic cutting of the Möbius Ring, his life force was dwindling rapidly, and his blood volume had fallen to two-thirds.
Unable to move!
Unable to move in the truest sense of the word!!
This feeling was extremely bizarre, as if he was fighting against himself.
To put it more vividly, it was like trying to lift himself by his hair but unable to.
In the first few seconds, Hao Jie activated his Combat Chip, calculating madly, and through countless data changes, he finally found the reason.
The reason was simple; his eight human body systems were interfering with one another in ’self-construction’: the Neural System interfered with the Sports System, the Sports System interfered with the Endocrine System, the Endocrine System affected the Digestive System, endlessly and ceaselessly, forming a human body’s Möbius loop.
This internal interference was what rendered him passive, unable to budge an inch.
’According to calculations, you only have one chance, with a success rate of 32.6%, and it will definitely come with limb damage.’
The voice of the physical intelligence echoed again.
’After finally recovering your body, to be beaten like this on your first mission, it’s unreasonable, right?’
’Execute.’
’Okay, initializing physical intelligence signal, physical intelligence taking over Neural System, physical intelligence taking over Respiratory System, physical intelligence taking over...’
As one sensory function, or rather, system ’disappeared’ after another, Hao Jie’s mood became increasingly tranquil. It was as if he was submerged in a state of universal ignorance and unawareness, and upon entering this state, he seemed to be dead, and yet omniscient.
It sounded rather superstitious. He had once asked the biological experts within Balance Technology about this question.
The experts told him this was not superstition or an illusion, but the biological signals becoming so intense that it triggered a spatial response, linking to higher dimensional signals.
Only by surpassing the limits of his own flesh could he completely master his body!!
Towards the absolute darkness of self-cognition, at the moment the physical intelligence fully took over his body, Hao Jie unleashed his proudly cherished ’Ultimate Fist’.
A fierce explosion sound erupted from the hundred-meter-long ’Möbius Ring’.
Gao Gong looked back in some surprise. Constructs weren’t invincible controlling machines, but he did not expect someone could extricate themselves from the ’construct state’ at Tier 2.
He had clearly perceived a spatial rift opening.
Interesting!!!
Hao Jie stood in place, bloodied all over, heaving heavy breaths, with one of his arms blasted halfway off, his entire body riddled with cracks.
His blood volume had dropped from 300,000 to 30,000.
Hao Jie looked up, his eye twitching violently because he discovered a bizarre mechanical monster!
A spinal ring over a hundred meters long, countless finger-like blades dancing in the air, a blooming Metal Lotus along all the bones, with scythes appearing and disappearing at will.
Eighteen members in total, thirteen had already fallen, and the remaining five were barely holding on.
A twisted, protruding metallic face gave him a slight smile, a smile carrying a perversion that mechanical life shouldn’t possess.
"Yo, Captain Hao, you’re out!"
The exploded spinal ring rapidly reassembled, restoring its original form once more.
460%—410%
"What kind of monster are you?!" Hao Jie growled through gritted teeth.
"Take a guess!"
After the construct fully unfolded, Gao Gong’s electronic voice carried a strange tone, sounding like the voice of a eunuch in charge of domestic affairs.
The next moment, countless ’finger blades’ invisible to the naked eye electrified and flew towards him.
"Captain Hao, watch out, don’t get caught by the net!"
A teammate’s exclamation came from the encrypted channel.
’Net?’
Within a tenth of a second, Hao Jie’s prosthetic eye analyzed all the shooting directions of the ’finger blades,’ yet no energy net or electromagnetic field existed.
But with a veteran’s understanding of the battlefield, Hao Jie immediately grasped the implication.
The physical intelligence began parsing at once, and the next moment, countless ’connection lines’ appeared between the ’finger blades.’
There was almost no space to dodge!
If the difficulty of dodging before was 1, then now it was 10.
The air was filled with formless nets.
Though Hao Jie wasn’t clear on the consequences of being ensnared, he definitely didn’t want to find out.
Instantly, he sped up completely, with clear thickening transformations at his knee and ankle areas for better explosive power.
The next moment, Hao Jie’s massive physique ricocheted through the air like a bullet, clearly skill-enhanced, dodging with countless jets of blood spurting out, looking very much like some Super Saiyan, only one of blood red instead of yellow.
However, if constructs were that easy to handle, they wouldn’t be called ’fleshworm cleaners.’
Fleshworm generally referred to carbon-based species.
"Even biological auras fall within the net’s coverage."
Hao Jie’s massive form deftly darted past two ’finger blades’ and the formless line between them, but the flames of his blood aura emitted during evasive actions were caught by the ’line.’
The next instant, Gao Gong’s right hand rapidly transformed into a massive scythe over ten meters long.
Construction: Scythe Dance (Upper Arm)
Construction: Moon Defect (Forearm)
The function of Scythe Dance is to slash biological forms, like cutting off the hand but the blood spurts from the vital points.
The function of Moon Defect is high-frequency slashing, enabling Instantaneous Ten Slashes or even a hundred slashes.
"Destroy completely for me!"
Combined with the Manipulation Rope of the ’Finger Nuo Dance,’ the integration of three constructs creates an immensely powerful ability.
Airborne Instant Slash!
As Moon Defect slashed down fiercely, Hao Jie seemed to revert to his previous state, with a huge gash tearing open on his back, followed by ten simultaneous slash wounds blooming from the same gash, blood spurting instantly.
[You’ve inflicted 20,000 points of damage on Hao Jie]
"Is it over?"
As the ’finger blades’ flew chaotically and innumerable biological lines connected, another construct’s abilities began to exert their power.
Every person’s calf began to twist, joints sprouting cracks with gruesome sounds.
"Bloom, Divine Flower."
The next moment, everyone’s calves twisted into blooming lotuses.
Lotuses made of white bone and flesh!!
No one was left standing on the field.
From across the video, Gao Gong gave the surveillance device an eerie smile and disappeared.
"Raise Mr. G’s danger level to the highest!" Mengna decided promptly.
"Also, connect me to the division’s Neuron Computer, I want to activate the power of this test site!"
